Ear skin problems: Home remedies for Ear Wax Build up

June 22, 2021

Earwax build-up is a frequent skin condition in the ear, but it's nothing to worry about since it's harmless. Inside our ears, oil glands make a protective coating called cerumen. This coating catches dirt, dead skin cells, and even stray hairs that find their way into the ear canal, leading to the build-up of earwax. Interestingly, the texture and amount of earwax vary from person to person. Some people have wet earwax, while others have dry earwax. Depending on the amount and moisture level of the wax, it can lead to various issues like ear pain, itching, ringing in the ears (tinnitus), dizziness, reduced hearing, or even complete hearing loss in the affected ear. Earwax build-up can affect anyone, but it's more common in frequent earbud users, older individuals, or those with hearing aids. In children, earwax tends to be softer and becomes drier as we age. While earwax build-up isn't usually serious and often resolves on its own without notice, it can be bothe...

STYE | EYELID SKIN PROBLEM AND WHAT YOU CAN DO TO STOP IT

May 30, 2021

WHAT IS STYE? One of the most common eyelids skin problems is Stye. A stye is an infection of the eyelash follicle (external) or of one of the glands on the inside of the eyelid. The infections are usually caused by staphylococcus bacteria. As with most infections, stye could be painful. They are usually noticed as red or pus-filled lumps on the edge of the eyelid. They develop very quickly in a day or two, they do not make your eyes red and do not affect your eyesight. The medical term for a stye is hordeolum. WHO GETS STYE? Anybody could get a stye, external stye is a lot more common than an internal stye. The picture used in this blog is of internal stye but the remedies for both internal and external stye are the same. Rubbing the eyelid a lot and dry skin (Eczema-prone skin) are likely to trigger the infection. But they may occur for no obvious reason in otherwise healthy individuals. The bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus, normally lives on healthy skin and c...

Otentika Maxitone Fade Cream Review of Side Effects

August 14, 2020

Let's dive into my first encounter with the Otentika skincare line. It all started with a recommendation whispered to me through the grapevine. Initially, I dipped my toes into the Otentika pool with their Maxitone fade cream, housed in a charming pink container. The beauty guru at the shop swore by the "pink Otentika," claiming it had worked wonders on her own dark complexion. Intrigued, I figured, why not give it a shot? After all, my skin was pretty average, so the "normal skin" label on the pink Otentika seemed like a match. I didn't rush into using the product right away. Instead, I waited a week before diving in. The first few days felt pretty standard, except for the cream's unique texture—firm, yet oddly satisfying, with no overwhelming scent to speak of. Then, about a week in, something magical happened. My skin felt firmer, smoother, and not just on my face—everywhere. I even dared to hope that some of my pesky dark spots were fading, though it...
