Five Beauty Musts For Girls On The Go

Today's guest post is by my twitter friend - Hitha, a girl on the go. Hitha writes at Hithaonthego - must read for me ! The girl knows what she is talking about , and I cant say that about this other person who writes everyday on this blog. Big thanks to Hitha for letting us in on her travel beauty tips ! When Indian Girl asked me to write a guest post on her fantastic blog, I racked my brains for a topic that you all would actually care to read about. She gives you the great makeup tips, excellent product reviews, and knows far more about makeup than I ever could. So what to write?

I do plenty about life on the road, with my job at a startup pharmaceutical company. I’m the resident gypsy of the company, constantly traveling to alliance partners’ sites, trade shows, conferences, and between our various offices. My skin reacted poorly to the change—I was breaking out constantly, my skin looked dull, and looking not so hot stressed me out even more.

One year and countless trials of skin and beauty products later, I have found some truly excellent products that I want to share with you to keep your skin healthy and your makeup routine quick and pretty. Let me know what you think!

1. Proactiv
Despite the corny commercials, when I was battling through stress—induced breakouts had me ordering the 30-day trial of this system. And while nothing else (dermatologica, Neutrogena, Murad, and some organic system I picked up at Whole Foods) worked, this did. I am hooked and grateful that I took a chance on the Katy Perry-endorsed product, as it brought my skin back to normal and looking better than ever. I recommend ordering the 30-day kits off Amazon as needed; if you order through Proactiv, they send you products without your ordering them and bill you back for them.

2. Burt Bee’s Acne/Blemish Spot Treatment
Like my quest for the perfect skin care system, I’ve also been on the hunt for a great spot treatment. After screening countless products, this is the one that works the best. Upon application, you have this great cool refreshing feeling (as opposed to a sting from most spot treatments), and it’s more effective than anything else I’ve used. I saw a significant reduction in blemishes and scars after a week. What more can you ask for? Best part—it’s budget friendly, at a whopping $10.

3. Benefit Erase Paste
Though the skin is under control, I have acne scars and undereye circles that require heavy concealing. Nothing works better than benefit’s Erase Paste (color dark, for you desi girls); it’s rich, creamy, and provides the right amount of coverage while still being breathable. Every girl needs this in her makeup bag.

4. La Prairie Cellular Treatment Foundation Cream Finish
I discovered this product while wandering the aisles of duty-free during a spectacularly long layover, and it’s quickly become a staple in my makeup bag. I love that application with a wet brush provides great coverage, and it sets over an Erase Paste concealing beautifully with a fluffy powder brush. Best part, La Prarie is made with clean ingredients that help your skin, not harm it.

5. Dior Crayon Eyeliner in Black
My makeup routine is quite basic—a clear face, slightly made up eyes, and clear shiny lips. I work with mainly older men, and experimenting with fun eye makeup looks is something I avoid for the work day. My all-time favorite eyeliner is the Dior Crayon—clean lines are great for the work day, and a few extra swipes and a quick smudge helps create a lovely smoky look for nighttime. With my meager makeup bag, I have no qualms about splurging on the few items I use, and this is definitely worth every penny.

Jabuticaba - The Grape Tree That Fruits on Its Trunk

No, this is not a belated April Fool’s prank. They look as if they may have been pinned there by an over enthusiastic gardener to impress the neighbors but the fruit of the Jabuticaba really does grow off the trunk of the tree. View more images after the break...

Otherwise known as the Brazilian Grape Tree, this plant is native to South America, notably Paraguay, Argentina and (obviously from its name) mostly from Brazil.  The fruit, a succulent looking purple color can be plucked and eaten straight from the tree.

It is also a popular ingredient in jellies and is also juiced to make a refreshing summer drink.  What is more it can be fermented and made in to wine and strong liquor.  After three days off the tree the fermentation will begin so sometimes, there is no choice.  Honestly.

 If you want one of these in your garden then you have to be patient.  The tree takes an age to grow, but once it reaches maturity it is worth it.  However, it has proven to be very adaptable and although it prefers moist and slightly acid soils it will even grow well in an alkaline type soil.

The flowers themselves appear on the tree at most twice a year – naturally.  They look like some strange alien creature that has deposited itself on the trunk and branches. The habit of flowers doing this makes them cauliflorous.   Instead of growing new shoots these plants flower direct from the woody trunk or stem.

You might ask why it is this way.  The simple answer is that it has evolved in this manner so that animals that cannot climb very high can reach it, eat it and then expel the seeds away from the parent tree to further propagate the species.

If the tree is well irrigated then it will flower and fruit all the year round.  The fruit itself is about four centimeters in diameter and has up to four large seeds.  As well as being used as food the skins can be dried out and used to treat asthma and diarrhoea.

If your tonsils are swollen you can also use it to try and alleviate the inflammation.  It is also hoped that the tree will be useful in the fight against cancer as several anti-cancer compounds have been found in the fruit. Altogether a useful tree if a slightly strange looking one.

Sassy Thomas - Eating for Pleasure and Profit

Eating anything you want and getting paid for it seems like a fantasy, but for Sassy Thomas, a supersized internet model, it’s just everyday life.

30-year-old Sassy Thomas has had trouble with her weight, ever since she can remember. her parents put her on a diet, wen she was only 10-years old, but after countless diets and nutritionist consults, the poor girl still weighed a lot more than most kids her age. School, and pretty much life in general, were a nightmare for the young Brit, from Tottenham, North London. In everyone’s eyes, she was the fat kid, and that’s never easy.

At 18, Sassy left school, and got a job as a security guard. She would spend her shift reading glamor magazines and thinking celebrity life-style was out of her reach. But one day, after a simple Google search, she discovered the wonderful world of Big Beautiful Women (BBW). She signed up on a forum, with a picture, and within minutes, received 20 emails from men who wanted to see more of her. It was the start of the life she always dreamed of. More images after the break...

After contacting a fellow BBW, Sassy Thomas learned there are men out there (known as fat admirers) wiling to pay big money to see her stuff her face and rub her 63-inch belly. She set up a website, bought some fat food and started filming herself eating it. After only one session, Sassy had already become a star, and fat admirers couldn’t get enough of her. She began charging between $8 and $60 for photos and videos of her eating away at super-sized portions of food, and is now making up to $3,000 a month, as an internet model.
Sassy gave up her $20,000 a month job, as a security guard and is now enjoying the high life as a super-sized model, that everyone wants to see eat. Admit it, you’d hit that piece of…chocolate cake, in her hand. Via Link
