<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">For all serious allergy sufferers, sinusitis (or rhinosinusitis) is defined as an inflammation of the mucous membrane that lines the para-nasal sinuses. A comprehensive test conducted by the University of Chicago recommended nasal irrigation to patients with chronic rhinosinusitis, where they concluded that large-volume, low-pressure saline irrigation decreases the severity and frequency of symptoms. In other words, if you irrigate your nasal system with a sizable amount of the liquid and do it gently, the symptoms of your congestion will reduce in seriousness (<a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1522156/" target="_blank">please see here for the full article</a> )<u></u><u></u></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This is such
an easy and versatile tip that you can really experiment with it. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Use this as
a base for the face mask and you can add other ingredients to your choosing but
I think the two ingredients work fantastically if you are needing a quick, easy
to make and effective.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">One is
water, which I’m sure you can get easily at home J<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The other is
something that is a basic staple that every household has: honey. I know that I
have already mentioned honey in other uses (see my link).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I wasn’t
lying when I said that the ingredients I recommend are versatile and can be
used in so many ways: that is the beauty of home-made, natural remedies! <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Why honey?<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Apart from
its delicious taste, honey also has so many benefits for your skin.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span lang="EN">Honey is highly moisturizing on the skin. It
reduces inflammation and swelling so it's perfect for dark circles/puffy eyes.
It gently cleanses your skin and kills germs.</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Honey
and a honey face mask are essential elements in all natural skin care. Honey is
the queen of skin care ingredients and has been used for thousands of years.
What more proof of effectiveness do you need? <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Scientific
evidence did you say? I can certainly do that for you J<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Honey is a natural antioxidant, which provides
protective benefits when used topically on the skin. Anything that provides
protective benefits on the skin, I think that sounds like a good idea! The Skin
Care Resource Centre reports that current research has determined the
effectiveness of honey as a natural form of sunscreen, to protect the skin from
sun damage such as premature wrinkling, a condition that in some people can
lead to skin cancer. (see here for the full article <a href="http://www.livestrong.com/article/112833-benefits-honey-skin-care/"><span style="color: windowtext;">http://www.livestrong.com/article/112833-benefits-honey-skin-care/</span></a>)
For someone like me who has eczema and has frequent bouts of sunburn this is
something I rely on for an instant skin fixer and it works every time.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 11pt; line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">As another added benefit that compliments its ability to protect against
damage, honey can also heal wounds, due to its natural antimicrobial
properties. According to the New Zealand Dermatological Society, the chemical
makeup of honey is described as "high osmolality." To give a
scientific explanation, High osmolality when referring to honey means that the
sugars interact with water in such a way those microorganisms cannot develop.
This means that when honey comes in contact with the wound , hydrogen peroxide
is produced. The creation of the hydrogen peroxide can provide antibacterial
benefits to ulcerated areas, which speeds healing. <a href="http://www.livestrong.com/article/112833-benefits-honey-skin-care/"><span style="color: windowtext;">http://www.livestrong.com/article/112833-benefits-honey-skin-care/</span></a>. So basically if your skin has been through
the trenches lately, use this mask ASAP!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This
is a frequently touted benefit of using honey in skincare but there has been no
conclusive evidence that honey on its own can directly help with acne. I
personally think because acne is such a different experience for everybody it
is hard to recommend a one size fits all remedy to help it. I still recommend
you use this recipe to replenish your skin but I cannot guarantee that your
acne problems will be solved.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Whilst
there are lots of way to apply it, I honestly use it on the fly and only make
enough to use for the one time, instead of making a bulk amount due to the use
of water.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">You can change the quantities and add more if you like but the main key
is that there needs to be more honey than water. The water merely acts to make
the honey more liquid so it mixes easier, you don’t want the mixture to be too
runny though so add a few drops of water first. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 18pt; text-align: justify;">Now this tip is a source of controversy but it is
such a heavily discussed remedy that I decided to try it out myself and have
personally felt the benefits from it.</span></div>

either a ½ teaspoon or 1 single teaspoon of baking soda into a glass of water
that is no more than 8 ounces. Give it a good stir and drink all of the
mixture. You can repeat this as needed but should not exceed seven ½ teaspoon
doses in a 24 hour period. Also, avoid using this as a remedy for more than a
week straight, as it is high in salt and can have side effects such as swelling
or nausea.</span><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">Heartburn is awful and unfortunately most
adults will experience it during their lifetime. It is characterized by an
uncomfortable burning sensation right behind the breastbone that often times
creeps up the throat, and is a symptom more so than a disease. It is caused by
acid reflux, which occurs when the ring of muscle that allows food into your
stomach (the lower esophageal sphincter, or LES) relaxes when it shouldn’t. The
result is acid from your stomach goes back up your esophagus, which then causes
the sensation of heartburn. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">Think about it…its acid burning your throat…ouch!<span class="apple-converted-space" style="color: #666666;"> </span></span>A spoonful of sodium
bicarbonate, or teaspoon-full to be exact, can help put an end to the gnawing,
burning, sensation of heartburn caused by acid reflux. Baking soda can help
your reflux and in turn help your heartburn because it is a base substance: it
has a pH higher than 7.0, and therefore neutralizes stomach acid. Neutralizing
the stomach acid means that if/when your LES decides to be lazy and acid comes
up your throat, you don’t get “burned.” (<a href="http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/301574-treatment" target="_blank">see here for the article</a>)<o:p></o:p></span></div>

there was a statistically significant increase in performance both with acute
‘loading’ of baking soda, as well as chronic use in 3 daily doses. Both acute
and chronic consumption increased average power output in a 4-minute
performance test on a cycling ergometer.</span><span style="color: #222222;"><o:p></o:p></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #222222;">In the same study, Baking soda doesn’t just act as
an ergogenic agent in short duration exertion either – it also enhances
performance when engaging in exercise for </span><span style="color: #222222;">longer
periods</span><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #222222;"> of
time. 80 males ran 14 second sprints with 16 seconds of rest for a period of 30
minutes, followed by a period of rest, only to start sprinting again. Many
studies have used approximately 300mg/kg prior to exercise or testing to
increase performance. This has been a dose that is consistently reliable in
increasing peak and average power, time to exhaustion, and so on. Many studies
use a 60 minute ‘absorption period’ where baking soda is delivered in one
serving. Some have used baking soda taken throughout a time period ranging from
30-90 minutes prior to testing, but based on all the studies conducted, dosage
60 to 90 minutes prior to exercise seems to be the most recommended timeframe.

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">It’s never a fun situation when you have a persistent cough, in fact I dare to name me a situation when it is fun to have a cough (just kidding!) </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 10.5pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Whether you are at work, on the train or bus, at a restaurant, in a classroom they are plain annoying! </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 10.5pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The worst thing about coughs is that they seem to drag on longer than other common ailments. </span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.52941176em;">So your cold's long gone, but have you now been left with a lingering cough that is keeping everyone awake and annoying colleagues?</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 10.5pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="line-height: 1.52941176em;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">New US research shows the average time for a cough to last after a virus is an exhausting 18 days - with many coughs sticking around even longer. (<a href="http://www.mirror.co.uk/lifestyle/health/whats-causing-cough-10-causes-1758473" target="_blank">see here for the full article</a>). So don't be too surprised when you have an annoying persistent cough even a week after your cold is gone. </span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 10.5pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Whilst almost everyone must have experienced coughing sometime in their life, did you know that there are two primary types of coughs, dry and productive?</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 10.5pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">A <b>productive</b>
cough is one in which you are coughing up phlegm or mucous-this is not a cough
that should be suppressed, as your body needs to rid itself of the gunk that’s
in your chest/lungs. While it shouldn’t be suppressed, some of these remedies
will address a productive cough by including an expectorant, or something that
loosens mucous and makes it easier for the body to get rid of.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 10.5pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 115%;">A
<b>dry, hacking</b>, cough is another story. This is one we do want to stop. It can be
caused by </span><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 115%;">allergies</span><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 115%;">, dry air, a random tickle at the back
of your throat that won’t go away, the aftermath of a cold, being in a dusty
environment, etc. etc. For these we turn to demulcents, ingredients that soothe
irritated mucous membranes and remove the irritant triggering the cough.
Studies conducted in 2004 found that the main ingredients in cough syrup
(dextromethorphan and diphenhydramine) have the same effectiveness in treating
coughs as a placebo ingredient. Instead of turning to chemical solutions for
every minor ailment, try some home remedies instead. They are not only better
for you, but they taste a whole lot better than most cough syrup too!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 115%;">Studies, such as
one conducted at <b>Penn State College of Medicine</b>, have found that honey can work
more efficiently to calm a cough than over-the-counter drugs. It is a rich
demulcent, with a high viscosity and stickiness that does an incredible job of
coating and soothing those irritated mucous membranes. Thanks to an enzyme
added by bees when they harvest honey, it also has </span><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 115%;">antibacterial
properties</span><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 115%;"> as well, which
may help shorten how long you have the cough if it is due to bacterial illness.
The <b>Mayo Clinic</b> have also confirmed that honey is an effective cough medicine

excellent alternative remedy for both kids and adults, but should never be

<span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Take 1
tablespoon of honey 1-3 times daily as needed to control coughing. For best results take the honey slowly and let it coat your throat.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 10.5pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Take
immediately before bed if cough is disrupting your sleep. For children, you can
adjust the dosing to 1 teaspoon up to one tablespoon.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 10.5pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 10.5pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">And that is all there is to it! What’s not to
love about this? It’s delicious, good for you and effective! It also works just as well for sore throats too so it is versatile as well :)</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This always works for me, and one of friends inadvertently discovered for himself how great it is too. He had a bottle of honey at work
for himself and happened to get a terrible cough and was considering taking some time off. He loved the taste of
honey and couldn't stop eating it, and he said that after a few days of going
through the bottle, his cough was completely gone! Real story. </span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">So there you have it: any hesitation you have had to try this tried but true method should be gone now with all the studies conducted confirming its effectiveness. Instead of packing some lozenges make sure you get a good dosage of honey before you go out the door and take it regularly and in no time it will go away :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Is this a tip you use regularly? Or is there another remedy that you think is even better than honey for coughs?</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<div class="module moduleText color0" id="mod_25073263" style="background-color: white; clear: left; margin: 0px 0px 1.4em; padding: 0px;">
<div class="txtd" id="txtd_25073263" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; word-wrap: break-word;">
<div style="line-height: 20.7000007629395px; margin-bottom: 0.75em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Plain yogurt (I prefer to use Greek Yoghurt as it is more robust and is thicker) is a multi-vitamin super food used as a staple DIY ingredient in many homemade face mask recipes for beautiful youthful skin. </span></div>
<div style="line-height: 20.7000007629395px; margin-bottom: 0.75em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 20.7000007629395px; margin-bottom: 0.75em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><b>Why is Yogurt So Good?</b></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.75em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 20.7000007629395px;">Whilst Yogurt has been touted as a cure for acne, I am going to refute these claims and disagree. From the scientific studies conducted, there has been no conclusive evidence that yogurt is helpful in helping with acne. However scientific studies conducted have revealed that yogurt does have benefits for your skin's overall appearance. In a study conducted by the Journal of Cosmetic Science, it was found that facial masks that contained yogurt '</span><span style="line-height: 16.3634548187256px;">successfully improved the moisture, brightness, and elasticity of treated skin' (<a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22152494" target="_blank">see here for further details of the study</a>).</span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.75em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 16.3634548187256px;">The way I think about this tip is: dairy products have been proven to be effective at tenderising. Ever heard of recipes where you marinade the meat in yogurt or buttermilk to soften the meat? That's what I think of this recipe as, tenderising your face. It might not be a pretty image but that's the way I think of it, and boy does it work.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This is something that I have struggled for years to deal with. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Having oily hair myself, it is difficult to manage: I will need to wash my hair every two days if I wanted to have constantly primmed, clean looking hair.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">But in reality, after 1 day, maybe 2 days in the cooler season, my hair roots start looking stringy and not nice at all. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Does this look familiar? Don't worry, I fee<span style="text-align: justify;">l your pain!</span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlSVL2ee6DEwo2MWCQxKqh-2RXtHCuSpnCXFUVF03sHTszVJczWndHov7mDkjMM-0tsp1Zpu9774BzfT9XscUhy2mtof84dFutcugYyN91bShBUXfIsYrFNmDSE0Ca_oaptHwBnQPa0U6-/s1600/greasy_hair.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlSVL2ee6DEwo2MWCQxKqh-2RXtHCuSpnCXFUVF03sHTszVJczWndHov7mDkjMM-0tsp1Zpu9774BzfT9XscUhy2mtof84dFutcugYyN91bShBUXfIsYrFNmDSE0Ca_oaptHwBnQPa0U6-/s1600/greasy_hair.jpg" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">And then there are so many articles out there saying that you shouldn't wash your hair that often, and you should only wash once or twice a week!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I had tried so many proclaimed remedies that were meant to tame those pesky oily roots, but sadly enough none of them worked.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Whilst in my upcoming e-book I will discuss my go-to shampoo recipe, this is the main tip that I have picked up over the years that have worked for me, along with my busy schedule. They may not be groundbreaking but they work, and at the end of the day isn't that the main goal?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Working in an office job, it gets pretty busy and most days I always have my hair done up in a bun anyway so there isn't as much pressure for me to always have my locks glossy and looking prim perfect. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This brings me to my <b>tried and tested tip: dry shampoo.</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I first heard of this product a few years back when I was walking around Priceline, a large Australian chain health and beauty shop. I saw it on sale at the front, and I thought: wow that is a genius idea! I won't have to wash my hair as often and it would still look washed and clean.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Nowadays dry shampoo is really popular, as busybodies love the convenience it brings, for people like me!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">But one thing that annoyed me after a while was the price: most bottles, especially for the effective ones cost upwards of $10. That costs more than my NORMAL shampoo, it didn't seem worth it to keep forking out cash just because of my laziness. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">That's when I came across a home remedy that was literally sitting on my bathroom shelf that I had been neglecting: talcum powder. If you have heard of this tip, move along to the next time but this tip really works!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">As you know talcum powder is a finely powdered mineral, hence it can also help to absorb excess moisture. That is why it works so well as a dry shampoo: it helps absord the excess moisture in your hair!</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>How to use:</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Sprinkle onto your roots, just make sure the roots have a nice even coverage and have gotten a nice thin layer.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Leave in for 10-15 minutes.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">After the time has passed, brush your roots thoroughly, ensuring the powder is fully coated into the hair. Eventually the residue will disappear and you will hair clean hair that has just been washed :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I have read that using talcum powder is better for blondes due to the white residue in the talcum powder, but I use it all the time with no issues (I have black hair by the way!). It might be a bit fiddly to get the powder out of your hair but the results are worth it! I love using this in between washes, it really is a fantastic home remedy.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Any talcum powder you have at home will do, but something that caught my eye recently was all this talk of talcum powder possibly giving you breathing problems and even CANCER! I was pretty alarmed, as you do and did some investigating. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I am happy to say that there have been <a href="http://www.thefactsabout.co.uk/talcum-powder/content/100">numerous scientific studies carried out on talcum powder and they have found no links to cancer. </a></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">What type of talcum powder do I use? Why the classic of course, Johnson's! I decided to switch to cornstarch over normal, not because I was alarmed at all these potential links to cancer but I just wanted to give it a try and I am never going back. It works so much better for me as a moisturiser and dry shampoo, making my hair look a lot cleaner and shinier, as well as easier to brush out.
