The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture Cream

Swati · March 16, 2018 · 2 Comments

The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture Cream

Do you have a good day time moisturizer to recommend for me? I am looking for something without sun protection. Among the plethora I have tried in the last year itself from Kama Eladi Hydrating face cream to Just Herbs Indian Ginseng Elixir to Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting cream, I love Kama as a brand but their moisturizer felt too heavy for summer use, liked Just Herbs but not enough and Olay Regenerist is worth a second try. After all that, I got the body shop vitamin E moisture cream on a whim. Be forewarned, this is not a product for you if you do not like silicones on your face.

The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture Cream

Price : approx. Rs 1,095 for 50ml though I am not sure

Not exactly inexpensive for a moisturizer, The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture Cream is light and fluffy. On application, it spreads smoothly and gets absorbed instantly.  It hydrates well and makes skin look plump and soft. The hydration has to be locked in so I would follow it up with a face oil (wrong routine though, oil should go first). The combination would keep me happy for half a day at most but if I skip the oil, skin gets dehydrated very quickly, especially in drier weathers.

Evion Tablets and Joint Pains {Health}

Swati · February 2, 2012 · 43 Comments

So, yesterday, I was just talking to my mom [She’s on a visit to me] and suddenly, she asks this question that “Why are you not taking the Evion tablets? You have so many of them!!!”. That was how our discussion started. And, she told me that she had taken scores of Evion in 90’s to get rid of her muscle and leg aches. And, they really helped her. So, I thought that would make a good post for everyone to be aware of.
But, before anything, let me be very clear that I am not endorsing Evion or any supplements for that matter. In fact, I am downright against popping scores of pills into your mouth. And, I would never advise anyone to do that unless t has been recommended by a doctor. This post is just for information and not recommendation. And, if you are facing certain same issues, it would do good to increase your Vitamin E intake instead of simply taking the pills.
What is Evion?
Vitamin E dissolves fat and is used for treating diabetes, preventing cancer, treating neurological disorders and also helps with problems related to the heart like hardening of the blood vessels,heart inflammation and other heart diseases. Vitamin E also helps protect skin from effects of sun exposure. It is an anti-oxidant and fights the free radicals getting generated in the body.So, that was about Vitamin E and Evion tablets are Vitamin E supplements which are generally safe for intake but excess of everything is harmful. Excess of Vitamin E reverses all the benefits it provides so it is better to be in moderation.

Food Sources of Vitamin E

That, Vitamin E is really good for the body apart from keeping the skin soft and supple. So, regular intake of Vitamin E in proper doses in a day helps in a healthy body. But, as I have already discouraged intake of supplements, try to fulfill the daily needs of Vitamin E through intake of proper nutrition.
Sources of Vitamin E are all kinds of nuts and beans. Nut butters and oil like peanut butter, sesame butter, almond butter, peanut oil, olive oil, etc. also provide high doses of Vitamin E. Green vegetables, tomatoes and mango are also rich in Vitamin E.I would also like to add that deficiency of Vitamin E is very rare so if you really think that it is happening with you, please always consult a doctor first before taking any kind of supplements. It is not a healthy procedure to fulfill nutritional deficiencies by taking supplements unless your body has some major issue.

Get rid of Stretch Marks

Swati · September 30, 2010 · 9 Comments

What are Stretch Marks?

Stretch Marks not only appear due to pregnancy but are very common among teenagers too. They can be red, purple or white in color, distorted in shape, long or short, wide lines and instantly recognizable. And, they can be present anywhere on the body but specially concentrated where you might accumulate a lot of fat like shoulders or upper arms, breasts, belly area, fat on the back just above and including the buttock region and thighs front or back. They can occur on anyone at any time.
Why do Stretch Marks appear?
During teenage, there are a lot of physical changes in the human body. One of the changes is sudden growth hence consequent stretching of the skin. Thus, these sudden stretches can tear the collagen and make the skin thinner in certain areas. The places where the collagen has torn and has become thinner are prone to appearance of stretch marks.
Stretch Marks can appear due to sudden height increase, sudden weight gain and weight loss, muscle growths, excessive exercising using improper equipments and also due to hormonal changes in the body.
How to prevent Stretch Marks?
A proper balanced diet is always best. A balanced diet ensures proper collagen production and maintainence, hence reducing the chances of collagen tear. Crash Diets and weight loss programs should be avoided. I have already discussed the ways to increase skin elasticity which is one of the ways to prevent stretch marks.
How to treat Stretch Marks?
  • Coconut oil repairs the inner lying tissue structure of the skin
  • Almond oil is rich in vitamin E oil so helps with regeneration of collagen
  • Lavender oil (if you can get hold of original and pure lavender oil) is good for healing stretch marks or lavender flower masks are also good for the purpose though you can not find lavender in India
  • Cocoa Butter and Shea Butter (if you get hold of unrefined cocoa or shea, mostly found in African stores) have lot of important nutrients for the skin
  • Aloevera gel is again great for stretch marks, mix the aloevera gel with almond or coconut oil and it is great as a moisturizer for dry skin too

Vitamin E and Evening Primrose for Healthy Hair

Swati · September 2, 2010 · 8 Comments

No, I am not talking of supplements. This is a little advise which I got from my hair stylist when I went for a haircut. Every time you oil your hair, pour a tablet of vitamin E oil and Evening Primrose Oil in the oil and put the container in hot water for 10-15 minutes to heat it up and then, massage the oil in your hair. It helps in prmoting hair growth and keeps your hair healthy. Another advantage of doing this is that your hair will recover from breakages it might be suffering from.

Another tip is that you can also pour contents of 5-6 vitamin E tablets in your hair conditioner as well (both leave-in and after-shampoo). This method will help your hair heal better from any dryness and split ends too.Update: An important detail which I completely forgot to mention earlier. You might also be wondering of how and which supplements to get hold of. So, I was suggested Evion (Vitamin E supplements) and Primosa (Evening Primrose supplements) and they were pretty easy to get hold of. You should be able to find them in any drug store near your house. And, Evion is just 15 Rs per strip and Primosa is a little expensive at around 100 Rs. So, I would say use Primosa tablet once a week and Evion tablets at least twice or thrice a week both in oiling and conditioners for better results.
