That’s why we recommend you should be up for a spa weekend, more often than you thought, and as soon as possible.

The Best Way to Disconnect

Without a doubt, going to one of these relaxing places is the best possible way to disconnect. Between a massage and another, hot and cold baths and the sauna, you will forget why you were stressing in the first place. In case that doesn’t sound good enough, most likely, you will also enjoy the experience with a friend or family member (or several). What will end not only in relaxation, but also in having loads of fun.

Reduce stress, and Boost Circulation

If you go to a spa, chances you will be going back home on cloud 9. However, precisely thanks to that, you will also return with better circulation (even temporarily). Because your muscles will be way more relaxed, and with a better blood-flow. Furthermore, what you will notice, especially that your skin will be very well hydrated, is how difficult for the dreaded dark circles to appear after a bad night sleep.

Complete Detoxing

Not only smoothies, vegetables and eating little go detox plans. And is that a massage, in addition to leaving you brand new muscularily speaking (yes, goodbye to that back pain) will also give wings to your lymphatic system. Which means that your body will do, without you noticing, a «spring cleaning.» By slowly expelling a lot of toxins and filling yourself with serotonin and energy for a few days. Something that will result in good mood, being very good and, above all, not getting bad. What more could you want?

You’ll Leave with Glowy skin

All these benefits translate into that. You will practically wear a layer of natural makeup on top. Why? Well, the first thing is that you will not look tired, which is already a great step forward. In addition, your skin will be brighter and smoother. If that were not enough, you will feel lighter and less swollen. So you will not only be mentally relaxed, but you will also have undergone, without realizing it, a beauty treatment. What are you waiting for?

These Are Natural Ways To Get Rid Of Greasy Hair

by

Waking up to a greasy hair that looks like it hasn’t been washed in weeks is not exactly a great way to start the day. We understand your struggle, as having oily hair requires extra care. However, it’s not always that you will need to spend all your money on hair-care. Sometimes, you can get rid of greasy hair using natural remedies. We have prepared for you in Cachet, 5 natural ways to get rid of your greasy hair without suffering too much in the process.

Don’t Wash It That Often

If you already wash your hair more than once a week, then you are draining your scalp from natural oils. Furthermore, over-washing a dry scalp will make it produce even more oils to rehydrate. Therefore, try to stretch the frequency and schedule washing your hair with your workout calendar as one of many natural ways to get rid of greasy hair.

Use Dry Shampoo

Moreover, not washing your hair as much as you are used to, doesn’t necessarily mean having dirty hair. In fact, using dry shampoo or baby powder will save you the hassle of morning showers.

In addition, it dries out the oils in your scalp, and give it a clean appearance in few seconds. The downside? Dry shampoo leaves residues on your hair that will make it look dirty after multiple uses. However, if you plan your hair-washing schedule correctly, you shouldn’t have a problem at all.

Moisturize With Coconut Oil

Coconut oil is known to have many benefits. It has been used as a natural remedy for hair and skin issues since forever. Experts actually recommend using a coconut-based conditioner to have silky, and shiny hair. Moreover, using coconut oil as a frequent treatment will eventually allow to lift oil off the scalp and roots, while adding some much-appreciated deep hydration.

Apply Shampoo Properly

One important factor to having greasy hair is not dedicating enough time to the washing process. In fact, applying shampoo properly, and rinsing it well after is key. Since residues of the shampoo cause your hair to produce even more oil, and possibly even dandruff.

For that reason, always make sure to »massage» your scalp without using your nails. Press gently and focus on the scalp rather on the length of your hair. Then, make sure to deeply rinse and clean with warm water. (Hot water damages your hair!!!)

Stop Playing With It

Yes, maybe you like to play with your hair when your stress at work, or let your boyfriend run his fingers through it. However, touch actually makes your hair more oily. Think about it, all the dirt on your hair will literally stick on your hair. In addition, Brushing and touching your hair frequently can stimulate oil glands, which will make your hair look dirtier and more greasy much quicker.

Reasons Why You Are Having Acne Breakouts

by

Acne is commonly known as a skin condition, in which hair follicles become plugged with oil and dead skin cells. However, there are various types of acne, and reasons why you are having acne breakouts.

Acne breakout is usually due to your body reacting to certain habits of yours. Nevertheless, some reasons have nothing to do with your skin care, and more with lifestyle.

You Are Going Through Menopause

Hormones hold a major responsibility in your Acne breakout. During menopause, your level of estrogen and progesterone lower down, which leads to inflammatory factors of skin. According to Marina Peredo, professor of dermatology in New york, hormonal birth control are also a reason to your breakout, especially durning menopause.

The Food You Are Eating

There is no denial that you will breakout like crazy after few hamburgers. Your food intake is highly associated with your skin’s overall health. Carbs turn into sugar when digested, therefore, it releases stress hormone cortisol. As a consequence, dermatoligists always recommend you to watch your diet, and make sure to eat well if you experience constant and heavy Acne.

Your Make Up Is Too Heavy

The make up you use, and how you use it also affect your skin. Even though you may think that using expensive make up means it’s danger-free, you are wrong. Even best quality make up products plug pores and oil glands, which makes it hard for your skin to breathe. If you are experiencing acne breakout, then the first thing should be making sure to keep your face clean, exfoliated and hydrated. You should even give up using make up for few days until it disappears.

Your Shower Routine

Yes, your shower routine could be why you are breaking out. Did you know that when you wash your hear, all the grease and oils from your scalp get into your face? Keep your shower routine simple, and avoid washing your hair everyday. Dr. Peredo says that if the acne is relatively close to your hairline, then that’s because you need to loosen up on the conditioner and your shower products.

The Way You Brush Your Teeth

Finally, and even though it seems senseless, the way you brush your teeth may be a reason why you are breaking out. Toothpaste contains fragrances, which react to additives. To avoid letting it affect your skin, Dr. Peredo recommends to change the toothpaste product, and use petroleum jelly before brushing your teeth, to protect the skin around your mouth area from acne breakouts.

On the other hand, if you have already gotten rid of acne problems, you may want to check how to deal with  dark spots and acne scars leftover from pimples.
