Eczema & the Un-buyable Product


Okay, for those who have Eczema like one of my family members you must know it's a pain to control. Now, there are many medicated treatments out there like Elica-M cream but prolonged and excessive use is not advisable as there are a certain amount of Steroid in the cream. So the solution is? I've tried and tested this on a family member and now they ask me to give them this facial atleast once a week and it's so soothing and really works to control the redness,dryness, and overall discomfort.

 Here it is:

 1 small tub of yogurt (I'm from KSA so I use Almarai lol just to happens to be in the fridge) 

1 TB of honey

 4 TBs of oatmeal (I used the container pictured)


Mix it together until it forms a thick paste, adding a little more oatmeal if too watery. Leave it on for 15-20 minutes and rinse off. The results are almost immediate, love it! There is however an alternative for dryness with oatmeal at Lush bodyshop but we do not have this store yet in the Gulf with the exception of UAE. Thank you followers, let me know if you love this too.

Skin Update !

Just to re-cap on my previous posts about skin...:)

Okay the Pantothenic acid pills I was taking in my last post on skin had some improvements to the clarity of my skin but the results were NOT dramatic so I decided it wasn't worth the extra....
80 riyals lol.

Now, what I must say is that I'm not a fan of your average over-the counter cleanser ( no Clearasil/Clean and Clean has ever worked for me)..BUT in my desperation I tried out another Neutrogena cleanser as it was the top cleanser in the product awards lately..and it's worth every 40 riyal LOL. It's not harsh on my skin like Neutrogena usually is (which I liked) and I definitely found improvements in my skin.

So here it is ladies your cleanser for oily/acne prone skin :

The Path to Clear Skin...Tester 1





I've went down to my nearby GNC, if you live here that you would know there are conveniently everywhere! I got myself this Pantothenic pills as I need to clear up my skin asap. I've read all types of reports on it's effectiveness but I'm eager to put this to the test.

I've started taking these pills on March 19 and the claim is that you will see a big result within a month..I took one pill every for a week followed by two the following week till now. I shall update accordingly :)

I may add that I'm also using Eskinol as a toner (sold at any local store here) 2x daily and I'm not drinking milk or laban...as I've heard that hormones in milk may cause spots. So let's be on the safe side....hope this works!
