Natural remedy for acne

Having acne is no joke! It can rip you off your confidence and self esteem. Acne treatments and/or body acne treatment are expensive at least for me so it’s always best to resort to natural remedies such as the following:

  • Apply a honey mask to your face once or twice a week
  • Wash twice a day with acne soap
  • Keep your hair off your face
  • Take a potent multi-vitamin
  • Include chromium in your diet
  • Eat carrots for beta-carotene (Vitamin A)
  • Avoid wearing makeup
  • Do not pick or squeeze your blackheads and pimples
  • Wash your pillow case every other day
  • Eat foods rich in zinc
  • I’d take note of these to prevent acne from developing in my face or anywhere in my body.

    Outdated

    This is my current cellphone….

    cellphone

    Ace has been prodding me to get a new cellphone. My cellphone is still working but outdated. While everybody are sporting their latest cellphone units, I am still using my Nokia (and I don’t even know what unit this is!LOL). This cellphone served its purpose for 4 years with me and a year or so with the original owner. Yes, I am just the second owner. That was given to me by one of the managers in URC four years ago. He gave me a phone so they could contact me even if I am on leave. Talk about being a VIP in the plant that everybody seemed to be distressed when I don’t go to work.LOL.

    Anyway, I am toying the idea of getting a new cellphone…but not the expensive ones. We’ve checked the shops lately and my eyes almost popped out seeing the prices of the new models of cell phones. Maybe I’d get the cheapest should I have the money to get one. Or I will wait for the time when iPhones would just cost me around a hundred dollors (I wish!).

    Working

    Our youngest is officially working (after her underpaid and tiring work at a restaurant)! Yay! I am sure Mamang and Daddy are happy that their youngest found a good job that would be her stepping stone to a better work opportunity in the future. Che2x just signed her employment contract last Tuesday (if I remember it right) meaning, she’s not a trainee anymore. This means, in a few months she’ll be independent from us(?). I don’t think so. Now we are waiting for her to receive her first salary so she may treat us with my homemade Buko Pandan. She promised that during her short stint in a restaurant but it wasn’t pushed through. I hope this time we could have unlimited Buko Pandan!LOL

    Wishlist

    It’s been a long time that I have issues with the power consumption and I suspect it’s the fridge. Been hearing a lot and reading a lot about old fridge consuming power more than it should so they say better replace it. Hmmm…that is actually included in my wishlist and I hope HE will provide us means for us to get a new one.

    Now I am torn between the items in my wishlist. Not personal loots but our needs for the house. Ace mentioned about getting a dining set (which I long to have for months) but I am torn between it and the fridge not to mention that we badly need a microwave oven for reheating purposes. I usually cook more than enough for dinner so we don’t need to cook for breakfast. Then the left over for breakfast, I reheat it for my lunch. Talk about being awake all night and you won’t have the energy to cook breakfast and lunch. Besides, it’s just me in the house during lunch so instead of spending time in cooking, I’d rather sleep!LOL.

    Here’s hoping we would be able to crash out items in our wishlist one by one.
