We all spend a lot of time on our computers. I most definitely do, and I wish I can minimize contact with mine but it’s just not possible. But have you stopped to consider what your computer is doing to your skin? Is it adversely affecting your skin? Maybe not now but perhaps with prolonged usage?
Green Beauty: eco-friendly Scotch Naturals for nails
How can the VivaBella Green Beauty Box Giveaway be complete without products to beautify your nails? So thanks to Simple Living, here are some lovely water-based nail polish from Scotch Naturals Watercolor. I’ve reviewed this range in September and mentioned how impressed I was with the quality of this non-toxic nail polish that is not only “3 Free”, but also free of ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, nitrocellulose, acetone, and heavy metals.
DIY Beauty: sea salt water to thicken fine hair
Those with fine, flyaway hair might want to give this simple DIY hair recipe a go! I read somewhere awhile back that sea water is good to thicken hair but since I don’t live near a beach, I thought this can be replicated by using sea salt from my kitchen! I’m all for a more natural way to thicken my hair without resorting to commercial products so if you’re like me, read on.
Green Beauty: Sweetsation for mommies & babies
Here’s another addition to the VivaBella Green Beauty Box Giveaway, and this time from Sweetsation Therapy. The USA based company has sponsored S$400 worth of skin care products – five sets of their Lumi*Essence Brightening treatment & I*Light eye cream – that are made with natural and organic ingredients free of artificial additives. Some of you may also recall my review of their Sun*Si’Belle Organic Triple Action Moisturizing Sunscreen SPF 30+ that is highly rated by EWG as amongst the best sunscreens for the past three years.
Share: would you cut your own bangs or fringe?
I have short hair and so I tend to visit my hairstylist pretty frequently. However, I usually go to him every two to three months. Depending on the haircut he has given me, my bangs or fringe sometimes grow too fast and I find myself having to visit him after just a month even though the rest of the hair looks fine. But since his charges aren’t that cheap, I usually drag it out much longer. And sometimes, when it gets all unbearable, I’ll trim my own fringe.
