The Ultimate DIY Guide For Destroying That Pimple!

WE ALL HATE ACNE!

Hello again everyone! This will be my last post for the end of this quarter and I wanted it to be special. Today I will be giving you the ULTIMATE GUIDE for destroying any kind of pimple that you may have on your face. Let me know how some of these work in the comment section or if you have any other ideas on how to get rid of a stubborn pimple!

1. Apply ice cubes for a few minutes. Freezing the pimple will shrink the overall size of it.

2. Rub on garlic for three minutes (might burn). This will dry out the pimple making it appear smaller.

3. Dab on some Listerine. Listerine is a great way to really clean deep and get whatever is causing that pimple out of there!

4. Make a face mask out of egg whites, leave it on for fifteen minutes to soak up the oil.

5. Use some eyedrops to help reduce redness.

6. Apply the gel from an Advil pill for several minutes. This will help make it heal fast.

7. Mix aspirin tablets and water together until it becomes a paste, leave mask on for ten minutes. This mask also helps heal and reduce a pimple’s size.

8. Leave toothpaste on overnight to once again, reduce the size.

9. Apply pepto-bismol for a few minutes. This one I have never tried but my sister has!
10. Rub the inside of a banana peel onto pimple, keep it on for thirty minutes. This one is better for people with more sensitive or delicate skin.

11. Apply oatmeal, or an oatmeal mask for fifteen minutes. Not only is oatmeal good for acne, but it will really soften your skin!

12. Rub the inside of tomatoes on your face twice a day. If you can do this consistently, I promise those stubborn things will leave!

13. Leave a spoonful or honey and yogurt for fifteen minutes. I do this even when I don’t have a pimple because it’s amazing for your skin!

14. Put a mixture of two tablespoons of honey and one tablespoon of cinnamon, leave for fifteen minutes. The cinnamon is a more intense version of the honey and yogurt mask. The cinnamon is like the garlic where it will really help dry out that pimple!

15. Combine baking soda a water and leave on for fifteen minutes. I personally have only used baking soda on my teeth but I saw my two cousins try this once and their acne went away.

16. Apply lemons on your most stubborn pimples. This definitely stings but it really gets rid of those pimples!

Pimples and acne in general is just the worst and it’s so hard to have it at this day in age. Thanks again for reading and I’ll start posting again once fourth quarter rolls around. 

7 DIY's For Runners!

RUN!

Hello again everyone! I hope you are all having a fun weekend. Right now Cheer is off season and tryouts are sometime in the middle of April. I personally am trying to get a back handspring by tryouts and I have also been conditioning a lot more. One of the things I like to do is run. Running is a great full body workout and cardio. Here are seven DIYs (more like tricks) for helping you run your best!

Do you ever get really bad cramps in the middle of your run? And you don’t want to stop because you set a goal for yourself but pushing through the pain kills? Drink a banana smoothie before your run to prevent muscle cramps. A banana with some milk and ice it the best for these types of things and is also really good for you!

This next trick seems a little weird to me and I personally don't do it because I don't like the taste of it. But they say to drink coffee to help your endurance. Even though my endurance is terrible I still do not try this but I have had many aunts and uncles say it worked great for them.

My aunt also told me about this next trick, which is to use you shoe laces to hold your keys if you have no pockets. I personally would probably find this quite annoying if with every step I took, they would jingle, but let me know what you think if you ever try it in the comment section!

Here is something that is definitely a DIY you should try if you love listening to your music as you run. Create your own arm iPod holder by cutting the tip of a sock and putting it over your arm. This will keep your iPod or phone is place as you run and works just as well and one you could buy from the store. And hey, if you really wanted to get fancy with it you could use a fancy patterned sock, but mine personally is just black. Need a DIY for the other sock? Use another sock and just cut the tip for a water bottle grip.

Here are two more DIYs to improve how you run. First, focus on one object far away while you are running to increase you speed, and feel less tired. This always works for me and keeps my head up even when I want to keep it down when I get tired. For afterwards when you're done running, roll your feet over a tennis ball for a foot massage on your sore feet. You can even add the in the freezer before hand, it feels amazing! It also is super easy to pop in your bag and go and it will always be there is you have some foot pain.

Also, need some workout clothes? Lululemon is by far my favorite. Thanks for reading and let me know what else you want to see by voting on my poll!
