Salicyc Acid For Scalp Issues

Aside being an amazing ingredient for our skin,  salicyc acid can also help exfoliate your scalp. How? 

There are shampoos formulated with salicyc acid and they exfoliate the dead skin cells. You'll find the SA in anti dandruff and anti itch products too. 

As part of keeping your scalp clean and healthy, you should invest in these products to enable your scalp detox itself too.  

When you exfoliate the dead skin cells from the face your products get aborted better and are able to get deeper into the pores.  This is the same principle behind the Salicyc acid in the shampoos.. 


In addition,  scalp scrubs are also awesome for healthy scalp and I've invested in that too.  

The Inkey List has also developed a salicylic acid scalp treatment for exfoliation of your scalp! 



Lastly, if you have a salicylic acid based toner, you can use a spray bottle to apply it on your scalp, leave for about 20 minutes and rinse off. Example is The Ordinary glycolic toning solution. You may also use body washes eg Cerave salicylic acid body wash to shampoo your hair. 

I know these sound great and the good thing is that you can do this once a month!

How I make forever Clair Skin care products work for me

I've heard ladies complain about the forever Claire Skin care products  not working for them. Well, I nearly became one until I tweaked how I use it and since then, it's been a jolly good ride. I started using the Forever Claire products in July 2013 or so. What I've been doing is to using a cleanser first before applying any of the products. Well, I discovered the reason why the product didn't seem to be working well on its own. When using the cleanser, I'll dab a bit of cotton in it to clean my face. Apparently, it wasn't the cleanser that was doing the work, it was the cotton. The cotton was getting rid of dead cells by acting as an "exfoliating" material. It was cleaning the skin surface. One evening, I skipped the cleansing and decided to follow Hubby's method of cleaning his face. I used my sponge to gently rub the FC product on the face. This face scrubbing technique left my skin feeling soft and smooth just like when I use the cotton and cl...

The 60 Seconds Skin Care Rule

The 60 seconds rule regarding washing your face is a great technique that has been used by a lot of skin care addicts.  When washing your face, the one trick that can make a lot of difference in your skin is washing for 60 seconds! Once you apply your facial wash/cleanser/soap, you massage or sweep it around your face for 60 seconds. This allows the cleanser to penetrate the pores and clear the dirt off your skin. All the make up  can also be easily absorbed by your cleansing oil too. I began doing this technique a few weeks ago and it's definitely helped improve the feel of my skin after cleansing.  (check shop.ghanaianemprezz.com for all skin care products)
