Pil`aten Mask review and a DIY version

Blackheads are those nasty little things we all hate to have and try to remove as quickly as possible in order to enjoy a beautiful face and skin. There are several methods you can use to get rid of blackheads and you will find here one of the most efficient so far. 


After watching a large number of vlogs and videos on the Pil`aten Mask, I decided to try it out. I was a bit skeptical especially with the thought that my skin may become dry and flaky if one had to apply something of such a harsh nature.









I did the full on pamper session with a wash, exfoliate and a steam then applied the mask, and to my amazement the mask had removed most of the blackheads I had on my nose, chin and cheek area. 






I was more than delighted with the results and was ready to recommend it to anyone else. The second time i needed to use the mask, was two weeks later, but this time I was short on time and could not do the full pamper session. I did the wash and a quick exfoliate and applied the mask, I had noticed a lot less of the Blackheads were removed. 

This was proof one needed to steam their face to open the pores so the Blackheads could be removed more easily and to achieve the results desired.

Well for those of you, who do not want a store bought product, I have just the solution, below is a DIY blackhead removing mask one can make in the comfort of your home. 



What you will need (for homemade mask):

– 1 tbsp. unflavoured gelatin;
– 2-3 tbsp. milk;
– spoon;
– a small bowl;
– a makeup brush.

Directions:
1. Take the gelatin and put it into the bowl then pour the milk over it.
2. With a small spoon, mix the ingredients well then put them into the microwave for about 15 seconds. This will make the milk and gelatin to blend in one omogen composition and it will make it sticky.
3. Take it out, test how warm it is because you don’t want to burn yourself and apply the composition to your face as soon as possible with the help of the makeup brush.
4. Let it dry then gently peel it off.
You will have to be careful to avoid applying this to sensitive areas or on your eyebrows, it is very sticky and really effective, you don’t want hair from the eyebrows to come off while you are doing this process.


Well just a few ingredients mixed and some time for beauty treatments will resolve this problem of blackheads. The method consists in applying a mask that will “catch” the blackheads and will pull them out when removing it. You can use masks as PIL'ATEN  as I have or you can make a natural homemade mask.


Update this post with your experiences, would love to hear from you.

The power of the Haldi Ubtan

 Lil spice never stop the sun from shining... 😂😂😂 In my previous post named "Turmeric for clear, bright and acne free skin" posted on the mid 2017, are some variations to this haldi ubtan, used for various skin types and conditions. I have been using and speaking about 'Turmeric Masks" before most people  and companies have been investing time and testing into turmeric and it's properties.. The new craze is the 'Golden magic of turmeric', and people are buying into it, without knowing the history and origin of it.  Here's a bit of Background: 5000 years ago on the Indian subcontinent, men and women took care of their skin and hair during rituals connected with religion.   In the ancient   Ayurveda   tradition, face and body masks called  U btan   were applied and adjusted according to the season. Ubtan masks are in fact the very first cosmetic product ever used in the world. Ubtan is a mix of various herbs, plants, roots and flowers

An update on havoc or maybe not, PART 2

Here, I thought part 2 would be typed and rolled out in no time, but, it's clearly no surprise that I have slacked and the release is so delayed.  I thought I'd give the havoc and unorganized lifestyle a bit more time and space to spill out in front of me before I give the verdict. Let me down right honest,  "I CANNOT DO THIS ANY LONGER!" I have seen the passed few months literally spill out at me, from unplanned events, to last minute clothing shopping and unexpected set backs, taking me a back. I prefer my daily to be more organised and structured to fit in time  for everything, I plan out months in advance if my wardrobe would need updating and changes, I am hands on with events and coordinating them accordingly, I normally can handle moments of unexpectedness if they rare. I have realized I'm too much of a controller and planner, I need to be organised and well prepared, to allow the unexpected to happen, I'm not one who loves to be surprised
