I type this post when I was in the class break with my lecturer, on 21 December 2017. And yes, Christmas is around corner and this is supposed to be a merry situation where people celebrate Christmas with their love one. But no, I am not feeling good for these all. Today is the last day of Jonghyun – Shinee funeral, and I still can’t accept the fact that he wasn’t in this world anymore, that he would not produce any good music for his fans anymore. I don’t know him well though, but I do know that he light up Kpop World together with Super Junior and Wonder Girls, etc.

His death had taught a lot of people, especially shawols where life is really precious and never underestimated depression. So by here I would like to share some information about depression and if you guys had seen these clues between one of your friends or even acquaintance, kindly help them in ways. It may be a small act for you but who knows whether it can save a life or not.

Feelings:

• Sadness
• Hopelessness
• Guilt
• Moodiness
• Angry outbursts
• Loss of interest in friends, family and favorite activities, including sex

Thoughts:

• Trouble concentrating
• Trouble making decisions
• Trouble remembering
• Thoughts of harming yourself
• Delusions and/or hallucinations can also occur in cases of severe depression

Behaviors:

• Withdrawing from people
• Substance abuse
• Missing work, school or other commitments
• Attempts to harm yourself

Physical problems:

• Tiredness or lack of energy
• Unexplained aches and pains
• Changes in appetite
• Weight loss
• Weight gain
• Changes in sleep – sleeping too little or too much
• Sexual problems

In my opinion, when a depression got worst, people who suffered depression won’t tell the public openly how they think, because they are like they don’t trust anyone at all. I’m sure that people always had the moment where they felt that they don’t even worth living, maybe by leaving is the best choice and will not hurt a lot of people. But then, are you even sure that when you left, the place you are going will give no more pain for you? Will release you from being hurt? No one ever go there and really come back. The truth is that people who suffer from depression, they just need the courage and people around them to talk to them, help them to open mind slowly. There are more efficient way than the way you thought.

If any of you are afraid of this, you can try to find a psychology for a thoroughly check for your safety. I sincerely hope you have a nice and a long live.

People who tend to remember their dreams also respond more strongly than others to hearing their name when they're awake, new research suggests.

Everyone dreams during sleep, but not everyone recalls the mental escapade the next day, and scientists aren't sure why some people remember more than others.

To find out, researchers used electroencephalography to record the electrical activity in the brains of 36 people while the participants listened to background tunes, and occasionally heard their own first name. The brain measurements were taken during wakefulness and sleep. Half of the participants were called high recallers, because they reported remembering their dreams almost every day, whereas the other half, low recallers, said they only remembered their dreams once or twice a month. 

When asleep, both groups showed similar changes in brain activity in response to hearing their names, which were played quietly enough not to wake them.

However, when awake, high recallers showed a more sustained decrease in a brain wave called the alpha wave when they heard their names, compared with the low recallers.

"It was quite surprising to see a difference between the groups during wakefulness," said study researcher Perrine Ruby, neuroscientist at Lyon Neuroscience Research Center in France.

The difference could reflect variations in the brains of high and low recallers that could have a role in how they dream, too, Ruby said.

Who remembers their dreams

A well-established theory suggests that a decrease in the alpha wave is a sign that brain regions are being inhibited from responding to outside stimuli. Studies show that when people hear a sudden sound or open their eyes, and more brain regions become active, the alpha wave is reduced.

In the study, as predicted, both groups showed a decrease in the alpha wave when they heard their names while awake. But high recallers showed a more prolonged decrease, which may be a sign their brains became more widely activated when they heard their names.

In other words, high recallers may engage more brain regions when processing sounds while awake, compared with low recallers, the researchers said.

While people are asleep, the alpha wave behaves in the opposite way —it increases when a sudden sound is heard. Scientists aren't certain why this happens, but one idea is that it protects the brain from being interrupted by sounds during sleep, Ruby said.

Indeed, the study participants showed an increase in the alpha wave in response to sounds during sleep, and there was no difference between the groups.

One possibility to explain the lack of difference, the researchers said, could be that perhaps high recallers had a larger increase in alpha waves, but it was so high that they woke up.

Time spent awake, during the night

The researchers saw that high recallers awoke more frequently during the night. They were awake, on average, for 30 minutes during the night, whereas low recallers were awake for 14 minutes. However, Ruby said "both figures are in the normal range, it’s not that there’s something wrong with either group."

Altogether, the results suggest the brain of high recallers may be more reactive to stimuli such as sounds, which could make them wake up more easily. It is more likely a person would remember their dreams if they are awakened immediately after one, Ruby said.

However, waking up at night can account for only a part of the differences people show in remembering dreams. "There's still much more to understand," she said.

I had been in trouble of having a normal sleeping routine and got myself a pair dark circles! So I'm here to share some tips to get rid dark circles!1. Cold compress

In the morning or evening – or better yet, in the morning AND the evening – apply a cold compress for about 10 minutes. If you have a mask you can keep in your fridge and pull out twice a day, that’s the easiest way to try this dark circle reducing method. Just make sure to keep it clean and give it a good soapy scrub a few times a week!

2. Cucumbers

We’ve all seen cucumbers used as cold compresses on television and in films – but do they really work?

In fact, cucumbers have skin-lightening and mild astringent properties, so you can use cucumber slices to fix raccoon eyes naturally.

To try this method twice a day, chop a fresh cucumber into thick slices and then refrigerate for 30 minutes. Then, leave the slices on your eyes for 10 minutes. Rinse your eye area with warm (but not hot) water after using.

3. Cucumber juice + lemon juice

If cucumber slices don’t work for you, try mixing equal parts cucumber and lemon juice and then use a cotton ball to apply to your under-eye circles. (DO NOT get lemon juice in your eye!) Leave the solution on your skin for 15 minutes and then rinse with warm water.

4. Rose Water

Rose water doesn’t just smell fantastic – it can also soothe and rejuvenate tired skin. Like cucumber, it’s a mild astringent, so it can work as a skin toner. Just soak cotton makeup remover pads in rose water for a few minutes, and then let the soaked makeup pads sit on your CLOSED eyelids. Leave them for about 15 minutes twice daily.

5. Tomatoes

Tomatoes are high in lycopene, a substance that’s excellent for your cardiovascular health, vision and your skin. Lycopene can help create softer, more supple skin, as well as decrease the appearance of dark under eye circles.

To gain the medical benefits of the lycopene found in tomatoes, mix equal parts tomato juice with lemon juice and then use a cotton ball or makeup remover pad to apply it to your under eye area. (Again, PLEASE do not get lemon juice in your eyes.) Leave the solution for 10 minutes and then rinse with warm water, twice daily.

A tasty concoction of tomato juice, lemon juice and mint leaves to drink daily will also help improve your overall health as well as your skin.

6. Cold tea bags

If you don’t have a cold compress or mask to use, substitute with tea bags. Many teas like green tea have the added benefit of antioxidants, which have anti-inflammatory properties that help soothe strained capillaries in your under eye area.

To use cold tea bags as a compress, soak a tea bag in clean water and then place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Then, place the tea bags on your eyes. Leave for 10 minutes or so twice daily before removing and rinsing the area with warm water.

7. Potatoes

Potatoes are a surprising source of lots of vitamin C, which among other things is great for the synthesis of collagen to promote healthier, younger-looking skin.

To harness the power of vitamin C to treat your under eye bags, grate some potatoes. Extract the juice from the potato and soak some cotton makeup remover pads in the juice. Place the pads on your eyes for about 10 minutes and then rinse with warm water.

8. Cold milk

Dairy products like milk are a great source of vitamin A, which contains retinoids that are great for keeping skin looking bright and young.

To gain the benefits of milk’s vitamin A, soak a cotton makeup remover pad in a bowl of cold milk for a while. Use the pad to apply the milk to your under eye bags and let it sit for about 10 minutes, twice daily. Rinse with warm water.

9. Orange juice

Since orange juice is high in both vitamin A and C content, it can help remove dark circles from under your eyes. Add a few drops of glycerin to orange juice and then soak a cotton makeup remover pad to apply to your under-eye skin. You’ll reap the benefits of orange’s vitamins as well as the natural glow glycerin gives to your skin.

10. Vitamin E oil

Vitamin E helps fight the effect of free radicals that cause signs of aging like wrinkles. Before bed at night, apply a drop of oil (a little goes a long way) to your dark under eye circles, gently massaging it into the skin. Leave this on your skin overnight and in the morning, rinse with warm water.

11. Coconut oil

As a powerful natural and gentle anti-inflammatory, coconut oil is an effective method for lightening dark under eye circles. It also moisturizes while it lightens to help prevent wrinkles and fine lines under the eyes. Use coconut oil like vitamin E oil: rub it into your under eye area, leave it on overnight and then rinse it off in the morning.

12. Turmeric

As yet another powerful, natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory, turmeric minimizes dark circles. Mix some turmeric powder with pineapple juice to create a thick paste. Apply this mixture to your under eye circles and leave for about 10 minutes before using a soft, warm and damp cloth to gently remove the paste. Practice this routine once a day.

13. Eat more dark chocolate

Here’s your excuse to indulge: Flavonol-rich foods like dark chocolate protect against the harmful effects of UV radiation, thereby slowing down the aging process caused by too much time in the sun.

14. Eat more salmon

Omega 3’s can be found in foods like salmon and walnuts. These fatty acids improve blood flow to the skin, moving blood out and away from your eyes instead of allowing it to pool there and cause dark under eye circles.

15. Curb salt consumption + drink more water

If you remember studying osmosis in high school biology, then you’ll recall that water in your body moves from places with the most water to those with the least. The parts of your body that are low in sodium (salt) contain more water, while the parts of your body with more sodium contain less water. When your body doesn’t have enough water but too much salt, you can look and feel puffy and bloated. The skin around your eyes is especially thin and vulnerable to dehydration. When you eat a salty meal but don’t drink enough water, your body will literally “look” dehydrated – i.e., red, puffy eyes. So if you plan to enjoy a salty meal, counter the effects with plenty of water.

16. Curb your alcohol consumption

Salt is bad but nothing dehydrates you like alcohol. Remember your last hangover? That’s why your eyes look red and puffy the morning after. Whenever possible, keep yourself to a two-drink maximum, drink plenty of water before you go to bed, and apply a night cream or heavy moisturizer around your eyes after a night out.

Get 8 hours of sleep

Nothing keeps under eye bags away like a full 8 hours’ of sleep. Get a good night’s rest – every night – and enjoy reduced under eye circles.

19. Sleep on your back

Since sleeping on your side or stomach allows gravity to work its magic, meaning fluid can collect under your eyes, try sleeping on your back with an extra pillow under your head.

20. Exercise + meditation

Regular exercise enhances circulation, bringing blood flow to the skin to transform an aging, dull complexion into brighter, younger-looking skin – including the sensitive skin around your eyes. Moreover, the daily release of endorphins into your bloodstream keeps away depression and anxiety, keeping you happier, calmer and more balanced. Meditation – whether it’s a mindfulness exercise after a yoga practice or the peace of mind you find on a long, quiet run or swim – also keeps stress (and the wrinkles and fine lines caused by stress) at bay.

21. Allergy medicines

If your dark circles are at least in part due to allergies, taking antihistamines regularly can help reduce under eye bags and puffiness. Furthermore, allergies can also cause itchy eyes – and rubbing your eyes only makes under eye circles worse.

22. Apply moisturizers twice daily

Don’t forget the most fundamental good habit – apply moisturizer twice daily. Use a lighter moisturizer for daytime with an SPF, and be sure to use a heavier moisturizer and eye cream before going to bed every night.

23. Use retinoid eye cream

Many love to use retinoid eye creams, but it’s not for every skin type. Use sparingly – no more than twice a week – otherwise you risk causing red, flaky, dry skin.

24. Remove makeup correctly

Do not go to sleep with your makeup still on or rub your mascara and eyeliner off. Use a professional makeup removing solution – only a few dollars at your local drugstore or Sephora – to blot, not rub.

25. Wash your face correctly

Wash with warm – not hot – water. Water that’s too hot acts as an inflammatory agent and will only make your eyes redder and puffier.

26. Use a prescription-strength skin brightener

If natural vitamins and skin brighteners don’t work, visit your dermatologist. She can prescribe a cream with hydroquinone, but be aware that prescription-strength skin brightener can cause irritation, so discontinue use if you notice any.

27. Professional laser treatment

If all else fails, you could try the most expensive option: professional laser treatment. A doctor can use lasers to reduce bluish and red discoloration under the eyes. Vascular lasers, as they’re known, work by constricting visible blood vessels, thus reducing the appearance of dark under eye circles.

I will be trying one by one and will give you the review for which is the best and quickest way and had it post as soon as possible.

There are whole lot of people who like to eat dark chocolate while dark chocolate consider as a BIG NO for me, because people who preferred to eat sweet stuffs usually don't like to eat bitter foods. And here i will explain to you a little about the PROS and CONS of the dark chocolates!

PROS:

Dark chocolate is a potent source of procyanidins, a class of flavonoids. Flavonoids, in general, function as antioxidants in the body. However, the procyanidins in dark chocolate serve a far more important role than just being antioxidants. As it turns out, this class of flavonoids are capable of preventing the growth of specific breast cancer cells by down-regulating the proteins that control said process, as well as inhibiting the spread of already existing cancerous cells in the breast, according to a Georgetown University Medical Center study.

The procyanidins along with the polyphenols in dark chocolate show potential for weight management as well, as was found in a Pennsylvania State University study. As it turns out, the procyanidins and polyphenols are capable of preventing the breakdown of specific digestive enzymes, subsequently resulting in lesser free fatty acids in the blood. Eating dark chocolate, along with implementing a low-calorie diet, may then prove useful in ensuring the success of one’s weight loss and weight management pursuits.

Dark chocolate contains methylxanthines as well. And along with polyphenols, both work together to reduce the levels of glucose in the blood of obese-diabetic rats. In this same Malaysia-based study, cocoa’s ability to lessen the amount of free fatty acids in the blood as well as its antioxidant-boosting capacity, were confirmed as well.

Dark chocolate is a high-fat food, too. However, most of the fats present in this food product is monounsaturated which is considered a beneficial fat. Specifically, it contains measurable amounts of oleic acid which is crucial for a healthy immune system as well as robust brain function.

Cons:

Dark chocolate contains much higher cocoa content than its milk and white chocolate counterparts, thus the former’s characteristic bitter taste. Though this is the case, dark chocolate still contains processed sugar. For instance, a seventy-two percent cocoa bar typically has twenty-four grams of sugar per one-hundred grams of serving. In practical terms, this means that a one-hundred gram serving of this tasty treat already provides an adult female’s, and two-thirds of an adult male’s daily recommended intake for sugar.  As you probably already know, excessive intake of sugar can result in conditions like tooth decay, obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases.

Cocoa, the main ingredient of dark chocolate, has measurable amounts of caffeine. Pregnant women are advised against taking food and drinks that have caffeine as ingestion of the latter increases the risk of miscarriage. Caffeine, in large doses, also causes palpitations, anxiety, insomnia, among other symptoms.

Though most of the fats in dark chocolate is monounsaturated, it does contain some saturated, or the bad type of fat as well. The saturated fat content tend to be higher in dark chocolate brands that have milk in them so you might want to opt for dairy-free versions for this reason.

I have been studying in I-Shou for almost 3 months, and I am still not used to the stairs I need to take every time when I need to go to the class. Once, my friend drag me to take the slope instead of stairs. Well I forgot whether it is more tiring or not rather than the stairs. But I am quite curious about this so I googled it.

1.       Slope are more tiring because, while walking on an inclined plane, your weight acts at an angle to flat ground. Normal reaction is split into two vectors, perpendicular and horizontal with respect to the flat ground. Only the vector directed vertically upwards is effectively helping you to move upwards, which is of a reduced magnitude as compared to flight of stairs where surface is horizontal. So it means when you walk on a slope you risk slipping downwards and you there have to use energy to prevent it. You have much less risk of slipping on stairs.

2.       Because they said that when you are taking the stairs,  that would be less tiring because you can take rest on the steps unlike slopes, no steps for taking rest.

Oh! Don’t forget if you are taking stairs, you have to walk a fixed numbers of steps unlike slope where you can walk how far and many as you want if you can, however in my opinion it is still more tiring for slope because there are two vectors working which we learnt before in high school!

HEY! Have you ever heard of a myth about eyes twitching? If your left eyelid twitchs, it means you are going to have a good luck soon and that applies oppositely to the right eyelid! But then let’s talk more to the science opinions.

Eye twitching is one of the commonly encounter conditions by many. It is also called Myokymia or Blepherospasm. It results from fascicular contractions of the orbicularis oculi muscle. Eyelid myokymia is typically unilateral and most commonly involves one of the lower eyelids. Though it is transient and recurrent it is annoying.

Before you can find a solution to your twitching eyes, you need to determine the cause.

Unfortunately the exact cause of the condition is very difficult to pin point. These contractions are nonsynchronous, semirhythmic discharges of motor units, discharging at a rate of 3-8 Hz. The discharges have intervals of 100-200m/s between individual motor bursts. The focus of irritation is most likely the nerve fibers within the muscle. Pontine dysfunction in the region of the facial nerve nucleus has also been suggested.

Most common causes include:

1.      Tiredness: Sleep deprivation is a leading cause of eye twitching.

2.      Stress: Both Physical and mental stress is said to have some role. Sometimes it can also be related to problems with vision.

3.      Caffeine and alcohol: There are some studies showing the role of these substances in eye twitching.

Dry eyes, Allergies and some forms of nutrition imbalance can also cause eye twitching. Demyelination and brainstem lesions are rarely found in patients with myokymia. Some medical conditions to be differentiated are Hemifacial spasms, Essential blepharospasm, Meige syndrome and Spastic-paretic facial contracture. Diagnosis needs a complete Neurologic examination and video documenting the event. MRI is rarely required. Treatment is reassurance. If any precipitating factors are identified reduction of these precipitating factors help a lot.

If the symptom is dialing then local subcutaneous botulinum toxin A (BOTOX®) can alleviate the symptom for 3 to 6 months after which recurrence is possible. There is some role of anxiolytic medication in those with evident anxiousness.

Here are also some advices what to do if you have a eyes twitching moment!

·       Drink less caffeine

·       Get Adequate Sleep

·       Keep the eye surface and membranes lubricated with eye drops/ artificial tears.

·       Apply a warm compress to eyes when spasms occur.

Hi! I have been interested in blind eyes because of a Korean movie that I watched before. And I finally get to research and post about it! There are few kinds of people with blind eyes, and these are some of them:

1.      Blind from birth - Nothing. I never saw anything. Therefore, I cannot see black because I do not know what black is. I see abyss as I do not now nor have I ever seen anything to have knowledge of what anything is.

2.      Went totally blind - Utter darkness - Staring into the depths of night. An endless hole that you could fall into but never come out of. Sometimes, there are little sparks of light like when you rub your eyes too hard, but this is not real light.

3.      Light Perception - Shadows - Shapes and figures but nothing really can be made out. I can tell if lights are on or off but that is about it.

4.      Legally Blind - Varies by person but generally - Looking through wax paper. I can tell large objects and familiar people. Things may either have to be very close or a certain color for me to see.

5.      Tunnel Vision - I can only see things straight in front of me. Although I can see these things clearly, they have to be really in front of me to see them. I may tilt my head funny to see them. I can't see anything on the sides.

6.      Counting Fingers (Forgot this Before) - This can range from 6 to 12 inches depending on the doctor. What it means is that when a person holds an object really close to the face, the person can see the object and literally count fingers. So it is purely subjective. Plus, this is not "useful" sight unless you are the person who is blind and then you can find all kinds of uses for it.

And there are two questions that people always ask:

1.      Do blind people wink? Yes they wink! Although it depends, some of them maybe hurt, trauma or injured so that’s why some of them cannot wink.

2.      Do they cry or produce tears? Yes they do!

Recently my sleeping disorder strikes me back again, and after I searched, I was with three sleeping disorders. I had these actually a long time ago, but it doesn’t happen frequently so I wasn’t panicked over it. But recently, my friend told me that I had been laughing in my sleep which I never did this before. I know that is creepy but I asked her to listen carefully the way I laugh and determine whether it is in the same way I laugh when I am conscious.

So these are the three:

1.       Somniloquy, this one is a sleeping disorder about you talk while you sleep. Mark it doesn’t only include talks, but laughs too. 50% of kids in puberty will have this, and 4% of adult. And this runs in family, so if your parents or grand-parents have this kind of situation, you might have this too. This is not totally dangerous unless you speak your secrets when you are sleeping. Maybe that you are having conversation in your dreams and you just speak it out in real life. It will be kind of annoying if you have a roommate.

2.       Hypnogely, sleeping disorder which is specifically for laugh. You might have a cute and funny conversation in your dream, or it wasn’t you…

I before never had this in my country, but recently in Taiwan it happened and yes it was my first time ever.

3.       RBD, while this one, you act it out! Action when you are sleeping. I had a dream before where I am searching for my mom, and suddenly I woke up to find my arms are in the air, same position as I search for my mom, I was so shocked but then fall asleep again because I was sleepy.

I have never be so often in talking and laughing while I was sleeping when I am in my country, I wonder what makes me talk and laugh more often in sleep when I’m in here…

So overall these are the one that I explained and it happened to me myself. There are a lot of causes for these disorders, but I think one of the main points that make you have a sleeping disorder might be because of STRESS. As you know stress is so capable in ruining your health condition. Be sure you have your stress control!

We are all afraid of falling sick and death. When we feel something weird happened to our bodies, we would usually freaked out and panic. I was once searched on website about the symptom I had and it was stated that I had Leukemia. Total freaked out!
I immediately tell my parents and let them bring me to doctor, and guess what? It turns out it was nothing! Some symptom shown on website is not totally right. So actually, you can search on website but make sure a lot of websites, do not immediately trust one website only! Do not be so pessimist for the result, do not assume to the worst. If things carry on to the bad way, you can just check up to the doctor! There are now actually some application which allow you connect to the doctor by asking them and telling them about the problems you have, your doctor will analyze and tell you what to do.
HOWEVER, it will be better if you could talk to your doctor face to face so your doctor could tell you the right conclusion about you yourself!

I recommend you to do check up a year twice, eventhough you think yourself not old and still healthy, but you never know what happened inside of your body? Maybe even right now your organs are eating other parts of your organs too!

I will be just talking about health a little today, short paragraph!

Goose bumps when you are pooping? Or when you are taking a bath? Well, it has been around a hundred times for me. And I have been wondering why, and if you feel the same as me, carry on reading!

Science tells me that, getting goose bumps are not a bad symptom in anything, it also will occur when you excrete others. This happened because when you excrete, the heat in your body becomes lesser which makes your body could not cope in a second (you also feel cold). Your skin will tighten to have the self-protection which later leads to goose bumps!

So do not freak out when you have goose bumps when you excrete!

I can’t survive if I don’t have air con in my room, do you know that we need to service our air con periodically. There are several reasons why air con servicing is very important.

The first one is that it ensures that your air conditioner functions at its peak especially when you want it most.

Regular servicing also improves the efficiency of your air conditioner. Experts warn that for every year of operation in which you do not service your air con, it loses 5% of its efficiency. After 3 years therefore, the efficiency of your air conditioner will have decreased by 15%. This adversely affects its performance.

Regular air con servicing also finds and addresses small problems that if left, could grow into much bigger problems that are more expensive to repair.

However, the encouraging news is that, with regular maintenance, you can actually recover a high percentage of the lost efficiency. According to research, regular air con servicing will give it 95% of its original efficiency. Thus, the amount of money that you use to service your unit can be recovered very quickly in terms of reduced monthly electricity bills and reduced costs of repair. An air conditioner that is properly serviced also dehumidifies your home.

So how frequently should you service your air conditioner?

Heating and cooling professionals say that even if you do not suspect that your air conditioning unit has problems, you need to have it serviced and inspected at least once every year. This will ensure that it operates at maximum efficiency. It will be ready to cool the house in the months when you require it most.

As the air conditioning unit runs, it tends to accumulate dirt and dust in critical areas such as the air filters and the condensing coils. This can adversely affect its efficiency. The buildup of dirt and dust, if not checked, reduces your machine's operating efficiency by 5 %. This means that that your air conditioner cannot cool the house as much as it should when clean.

Many service companies also wash the condenser of the air conditioner and this can save you a lot of headache as well as money in future. Although it is a simple thing, failing to wash your condenser could cause it to malfunction and even ruin it totally.

As a homeowner, the best thing you can do for your air conditioning unit is changing your filter. Ideally, you should change the filter at least once every 30 days.

Hey! I would like to introduce you some information about types of masks and the functions! Make sure you don’t purchase the wrong one!

Cleansing and Refreshing: Clay masks usually contain bentonite which is found to be effective in cleansing the pores.  It also helps in healing skin blemishes, leaving the skin invigorated.

Detoxifying and Hydrating: Certain face masks have detoxifying properties, like seaweed. In addition, seaweed may also help to hydrate your skin.

Moisturizing: A good face moisturizing mask contains essential ingredients with soothing effects. Choose one with aloe vera and/or witch hazel oil, as these two are known as skin moisturizers.

Exfoliating: A good exfoliating mask works best if it contains ingredients such as alpha hydroxy acid (AHA). It acts as an exfoliant and as an anti-aging solution by helping to remove dead skin cells and diminish wrinkle formation.

Unclogging pores: As long as you have AHA as one of the main ingredients in a mask, unclogged pores can be yours.

Brightening: A facial mask can certainly help to brighten the appearance of the skin. Try choosing a mask formula with enzymes and beads as a way to reap the benefits.6

Improving Elasticity: Masks which contain collagen may help to improve your skin’s elasticity. When choosing your face mask for anti-aging purposes, don’t just concentrate on cleansing and detoxifying properties. Look for a more powerful anti-aging ingredient like collagen.

I remembered when I was in elementary grade. There were twins of sisters, keeps on having nose bleeds, almost every day! So this post was inspired by them!

Tips to stop nosebleeds!

1. Sit up straight and tip your head slightly forward.
2. Do not tilt your head back. This may cause blood to run down the back of your throat, and you may swallow it. Swallowed blood can irritate your stomach and cause vomiting. And vomiting may make the bleeding worse or cause it to start again. Spit out any blood that gathers in your mouth and throat rather than swallowing it.
3. Use your thumb and forefinger to firmly pinch the soft part of your nose shut. The nose consists of a hard, bony part and a softer part made of cartilage. Nosebleeds usually occur in the soft part of the nose. Spraying the nose with a medicated nasal spray (such as Afrin) before applying pressure may help stop a nosebleed. You will have to breathe through your mouth.
4. Apply an ice pack to your nose and cheeks. Cold will constrict the blood vessels and help stop the bleeding.
5. Keep pinching for a full 10 minutes. Use a clock to time the 10 minutes. It can seem like a long time. Resist the urge to peek after a few minutes to see if your nose has stopped bleeding.
6. Check to see if your nose is still bleeding after 10 minutes. If it is, hold it for 10 more minutes. Most nosebleeds will stop after 10 to 20 minutes of direct pressure.
7. Put a thin layer of a saline- or water-based nasal gel, such as NasoGel, or an antiseptic nasal cream inside your nose. Do not blow your nose or put anything else inside your nose for at least 12 hours after the bleeding has stopped.
8. Rest quietly for a few hours.

Some causes of nosebleeds:

1. Inflammation of the mucous membranes - this is usually caused by allergies or possibly by upper respiratory infections.
2. Dryness to the mucous membranes - decongestant medications and a dry environment can make the inside of the nose dry and make them prone to bleed.
3. Foreign substances – objects such as peas, cheerios, cocaine, or even steroid nasal sprays can make the nose bleed.
4. Trauma - yes, being punched in the nose can make it bleed. You probably didn’t need a doctor to tell you that one.

The nose can bleed from two main sources, the front (or anterior) portion, and the back (or posterior) portion.  Anterior nosebleeds are by far the most common, and almost always get better without much medical intervention. Posterior bleeds, on the other hand, can be quite serious; but thankfully, they are relatively rare.

1. Anterior nosebleeds: Anterior nosebleeds usually originate from a bundle of blood vessels.
2. Posterior nosebleeds: To point out where a posterior nosebleed occurs would take very long and thin fingers.

Fun Facts!

• We don’t easily nosebleeds when we meet some sexual situation.
• There are some cancers that can cause nosebleeds! Leukemia is one of them.
• Extreme of cold or hot environment can cause nosebleeds.

If you are suffering from nose bleed for a long time, you can consult to doctor in case it is a Posterior nosebleed, since this type of nosebleeds is serious and need surgical intervention.

Can you swim? Do you like the feel of floating above the water? Do you know that there is a sickness named EYE FLOATERS? Let me tell you!
Eye floaters appear as small spots that drift through your field of vision. They may stand out when you look at something bright, like white paper or a blue sky.
They come in many different shapes:

• Black or gray dots
• Squiggly lines
• Threadlike strands, which can be knobby and almost see-through
• Cobwebs
• Rings

Most floaters are small flecks of a protein called collagen. They’re part of a gel-like substance in the back of your eye called the vitreous ( humor which plays a crucial role in supporting the posterior side of the lens).
As you age, the protein fibers that make up the vitreous shrink down to little shreds that clump together. The shadows they cast on your retina are floaters. If you see a flash, it’s because the vitreous has pulled away from the retina. If that happens, see your eye doctor ASAP.
These changes can happen at any age, but usually occur between 50 and 75. You’re more likely to have them if you’re nearsighted or have had cataract surgery.
It’s rare, but floaters can also result from:

• Eye disease
• Eye injury
• Diabetic retinopathy
• Crystal-like deposits that form in the vitreous
• Eye tumors

If you only have a few eye floaters that don't change over time, don’t sweat it.
Go to the doctor ASAP if you notice:

• A sudden increase in the number of floaters
• Flashes of light
• A loss of side vision
• Changes that come on quickly and get worse over time
• Floaters after eye surgery or eye trauma
• Eye pain

Choose a doctor who has experience with retina problems. If you don’t get help right away, you could lose your sight.
