What To Use When Your Skin Is Allergic To Everything
IDI NEWS

I give props to anyone who has had to deal with the awful effects of sensitive skin. Having eczema and psoriasis caused nothing but skin problems. Products that overuse alcohol, talc powder or any harsh chemicals are off limits. With the rise of natural and organic products, it has become easier to find remedies for common problems.

Here is a list of miracle natural products that have saved my skin, face and hair.

Coconut Oil

If you have not jumped on the coconut oil bandwagon: you should! It is a miracle oil for a number of common issues, like dry skin and acne. You can bake with it, eat it and add it to your beauty regimen. I use it to wash my face, facials, teeth whitening, deep conditioning my hair and scalp, shaving and the list goes on.

Tea Tree Oil

When my skin is a hot mess and I need a fast spot treatment this is my go to. You can use it in many different facial treatments and throw it in your shampoo for a deep clean.

Honey

Honey is an antibacterial, calming agent that can be used for so many things. A lot of people use it in their hair after harsh chemicals. I personally mix it with cinnamon and nutmeg to make a facial that calms down my acne. It can even get rid of stubborn blackheads and reduce pore size

Charcoal

This one you have to be careful with. It is a strong cleanser that can lift impurities off of your skin but should only be used once in a while. Sometimes charcoal is so good at cleansing that it can be over-drying. But it is perfect for when you need that deep clean without the chemicals.

Lemon Juice

This natural detox can be used for many common problems. Even just by throwing some into your water at work or the gym, it's the perfect detox. It can also be used to spot treat and lighten hair.

Apple Cider Vinegar

This was the holy grail before coconut oil. Some people even use it to wash their hair because it doesn't have all the additives that shampoo does. By taking it internally you can detox the body because it cures common ailments like yeast infections, constipation and clears sinuses. It can remove buildup in your hair, acne and dry skin. You name it, there's a natural remedy.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
