The Easiest Way To Remove Dark Under Eye Circles For Good With Only One Ingredient!

Dark under eye circles are a beauty issue for many women and men. The unsightly blemishes are commonly seen as a sign of fatigue and lack of sleep but there are a number of other possible causes. They may first appear in childhood and this could point to them being inherited.

Dark circles have also been attributed to allergies and nasal congestion which dilates certain blood vessels around the eyes and causes them to darken. Other possibilities include stress, anemia, oversleeping, eczema, crying, too much salt in ones diet, aging, and excessive drinking, smoking, or sun exposure.

In addition, they may also be a symptom of a more serious condition, such as liver disease or hypothyroidism. Many products and treatments have been touted as effective at making dark under eye circles go away. However, most of them are ineffective and don’t really do anything and some may even damage the fragile skin under our eyes.

If you want to try an affordable, simple, all natural way to eliminate dark circles then try this at home remedy. All you need is baking soda, hot water or tea, and a few cotton pads. Take a glass of either tea or hot water and mix in well one teaspoon of baking soda.

Then soak two cotton pads in the solution and gently place them under your eyes for a total of 15 minutes. After you remove the pads wash your face and finish up with an application of moisturizer. Baking soda has been used in a number of at home beauty and personal care treatments.

It also works well to both clean and help fade scars caused by acne. The recipe and directions for an exfoliating baking soda acne scrub are as follows. Combine one teaspoon of baking soda and a drop of water on a plate and mix it up well.

You do not want to add too much water so slowly add one drop at a time, adding more if needed, until it has the consistency of a paste and not a runny liquid. Gently massage the mixture onto your face and let it sit for a couple of minutes or until it hardens, then wash your face well.

Over time this solution should fade any scars as it gently cleans your pores and skin. It can be applied nightly before bed and many people have reported that this is helpful and works! Baking soda works well at cleaning because it is effective at regulating pH since it’s not overly acidic or too alkaline, rather it falls right in the middle.

Thus, when it interacts with things that are either acidic or alkaline it naturally reacts to neutralize them. This is what makes baking soda so great at combating acidic odors that make our fridges smell. It also works well to maintain balanced, neutral pH levels and when it’s added to water and applied to things it serves to make stuff even more clean.

Best of all it’s extremely affordable, natural, and it doesn’t harm the environment like most of the ingredients that are found in beauty products do. Try one of these applications tonight before bed and see the results for yourself!

Her Hair Seems Normal At First But It Is Hiding A Crazy Secret!

People love to try out different hair colors, as an expression or their creativity and desire to see themselves in different ways. The video below will show you the end result of using a “home remedy” for changing hair color, without the expense and damage of using harsh chemicals, and being left with a color that you have to live with for ages.

Believe it or not using a mixture of Kool-Aid drink mix powder and hair conditioner you will be able to achieve the really cool look that hides under your natural hair color.  Or, if you care to be more flamboyant with your look, you can dip the ends in the mixture or apply it all over.  Whatever your choice may be, no worries, because the color will only last for a few days.

It is advisable to use plastic gloves to prevent staining on your hands, and wrap yourself in an old towel to avoid staining your clothes.  Mix the Kool-Aid packages in a bowl; be sure to use only the traditional version, because the unsweetened or artificially sweetened kinds will cause your hair to be sticky and the chemicals may burn your eyes.

Just a few tips for Kool-Aid colors: Cherry makes the hair a deeper red; Tropical punch results in a brighter red; Mixing strawberry and grape will give you a purplish red and experimenting with different combinations will give you a more rainbow effect. Now comes the conditioner.

Adding a few drops of conditioner and some water is key to aiding the Kool-Aid to be absorbed into the hair more evenly.  The conditioner also changes the texture of the Kool-Aid into a thicker solution, making it easier to apply.

Make sure the combination of the Kool-Aid, water and conditioner are mixed to be completely smooth before applying; any lumpiness will prevent effective coloration. Now comes the fun part of using a brush to apply your mixture!  If you want to dye your whole head, start at the roots and work your way down and under until all of your hair has been treated.

If you only want your tips dip them in the different colors.  To get the incredible look you are about to view in the footage below, pin up the top layer of your hair and just apply your colors to the under part of your hair.

Your hair should be damp and sticky during the process, otherwise the powder will just wash out of your hair.  Wrap your hair in sandwich wrap, securing it with tape, and sleep with it to get the best results.  After awakening remove the plastic wrap.

Make sure to rinse your hair completely with lukewarm water ONLY.  If you use shampoo all the color will wash out!!  Secondly, you can apply conditioner, and then rinse again.  Comb out your hair and wait to dry.

Let us know what look you go for and how the color comes out.  I, myself am going to go for the look in the following video…you can go for the surprise effect while maintaining your natural look for work.

Whether your hair is short or long, I think the surprise color is getting the best of both worlds!

If you live in your own home, and are lucky enough to have beautiful trees on your property, you have lived through the heartbreak of losing them in large storms. Some may be hundreds of years old, or you may have lovingly planted them and watched them grow, year after year.

If You Notice A $100 Bill On Your Windshield. This Is What It Means!

With all the good cheer around during the holiday season, it might be reasonable to believe that you would receive a random act of kindness.  Thats what Kyri Viehman thought, as she was driving home from doing some Christmas shopping with her mom.

From St. Louis, MO, Kyri noticed something flapping on the passenger side of her windshield, which she at first thought was a flyer for something. When she looked again she saw that it was $100 bill that was tucked under her wipers.  Later she wrote on Facebook:

Being a dedicated listener to the Bobby Bones Show, I thought someone was ‪#‎pimpinjoy‬ for this single mom wrestling with a crabby toddler around the holidays,” she wrote on Facebook. “That’s where my naivety came into play. I pulled over to the side of the road to retrieve this miracle money that came into my life at the perfect time.

The bill was placed under the wipers where you had to get out of your car, walk around front, and grab it (you could not just roll down your window). I opened the bill, and it read something similar to ‘Ha you thought this was real didn’t you?

This is a cautionary tale for all of us, who are out shopping this season, or really any time!  After doing some research on the internet, Kyri learned that she had, indeed, “dodged a bullet”!  This is a common carjacker scam used to get the driver out of the car before driving away.

The fake $100 bill is placed on the passenger side in order to get the driver on the other side of the car, so that the carjacker can get in the driver’s seat of the car that most probably has the keys in the ignition at this point!  Not only do the thieves get the car but the gifts that are in it.  In Kyri’s case her toddler was locked in his carseat in the back!

This is extremely frightening and dangerous.
