How to Pair Pears  

How to Pair Pears

Eat your pear fresh, or slice-and-dice it for salads. Pears can be poached, baked, roasted, or grilled. But a favorite taste treat is to pair just the right pear, with just the right cheese. Pears contain Vitamin C, potassium, and lots of fibre. One, medium-size pear gives us 6 grams, one of the highest fibre fruits grown in North America.

Great Beauty Tips

Exfoliate with Sand 
1. Next time you're at the beach; use the sand to exfoliate your hands and feet and bring a spray can to fill with the salt water and spray on hair whenever you want to create a tousled look.

2. Saltwater can help acne.

3. Putting olive oil onto the roots of your hair and then rinsing is a quick and cheap way to put a nice shine through hair.

4. Use a tinted moisturizer rather than foundation.

5. Drink tons of water and eat lots of fruit and veggies.

6. If you have bad acne visit the dermatologist, there are a lot of great treatments out there.

7. When you condition your hair leave it in and comb before washing out as usual. Feels soft and detangled.

8. Never go to sleep with makeup on.

Hope these help!!

READERS' QUESTIONS

I have dry and sensitive skin...

What is the best product I should use? Also when I put makeup like foundation I can see dry skin and that does not make it attractive. Is there something that I can put before the foundation so I would look best and that the foundation can stay on longer. Thanks.
