It's no secret that regardless of your skin type everyone wants good skin. We spend a lot of time, money, and energy trying to get rid of acne, blackheads, wrinkles, and other skin problems. Here are some foods that are good for your skin.
Fish
Fish has to be the best source of protein for the body. The oil of the fish improves skin texture, prevents acne by reducing inflammation, and delays the aging of the skin. It is also great for promoting hair growth and preventing hair loss. It is very underrated.
Eggs
Eggs are great for your skin. They provide non-fat protein which helps strengthen the skin pores and removes excessive oils. They also help soften the hair, rebuild damaged hair, makes the hair moisten. Eggs can be used to make DIY facial masks.
Water
Although water is not a type of food, it is good for the skin. 60% of the human body is made up of water, because of this, staying hydrated is very important. Water gives the skin moisture, preventing it from looking dry and shriveled.
Citrus fruits
Oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruits are all rich sources of vitamin C. Vitamin C gives the skin a radiant glow, keeps it blemish free, and evens out the skin tone.
Note:
To achieve good skin, one should try to incorporate this into their daily meals and skincare routine.
Everyone was made uniquely resulting in us having different skin, because of this whatever works for one person may not work for the other, so don't give up if it doesn't work.
Comment below whatever food works well for your skin and whatever doesn't.

The ability to stay positive is one of the most important skills that you can develop. Why is this? This is because we will spend most of our lives setting and trying to achieve goals. Everyone has dreams. Everyone wants to know their purpose on earth. The problem is that life is tough. The second you set a goal, obstacles will begin to appear to stand in your way. Most people let these challenges rob them of the life they really want. This is why most people will never be able to realize their dreams.
It’s sort of hard to think positively after reading that isn’t it? But what am I getting to? If you want to achieve greatness, if you want to experience the best life possible, then be prepared to fall and fail over and over again. Staying positive during situations like this is not easy.
So how do you remain positive regardless of what type of challenge you are facing? It all comes down to how you choose to respond to any situation as well as what you decide to focus on. No matter how bad your situation is, you can always find something good in it. So what you can do is start focusing on what is good. Even if you failed an exam, were denied admission, lost someone, or are going through a very bad break up you can still be positive. I’m not saying it’s going to be easy but just keep a positive mind.
Knowing how to be positive can help you overcome a lot of challenges that cause many others to fail. So what can you do? You can do things like reading positive books or listen to songs with positive lyrics.
Realize that challenges are a part of life. Everyone will have to go through them. It’s what makes reaching a goal worth it. If you were able to get everything you wanted without facing challenges or trying, the victory wouldn’t taste as sweet.

Hey guys, today we're looking at some outfits which are quite popular today. And I am guessing that you might have seen some of these outfits on somebody or somewhere.
1.) FENDI
@Wizkidayo
@tiwasavage
It’s Fendi season, and the Nigerian celebrities are definitely here for it. From Nigerian singer Wizkid and Tiwa savage rocking an almost head to toe Fendi look. And I have to admit this trend is actually taking over. However, the Fendi Outfits do not come cheap, to be frank.
Drop your comments below on who rocked it better.
2.) ARMANI
This Italian fashion house in recent times has caught most of our attention with its most recent outfits. This brand has been around for a while but came into the limelight recently. This brand might look simple, but should be the next item you are adding to your wardrobe.
3.) THRASHER
@badgalriri
@Chris_ayomide
Thrasher theAmerican Clothing Brand was formerly a skateboard magazine. Regardless of its funny background, it became very popular in America when Singer Rihanna rocked the brand's hoodie. As for me, it's the first item on my shopping list.
4.) ODD FUTURE (OF)
@adeduntanokupe
Odd Future, another one of America's new clothing brands, originated from odd future wolf gang kill them all, a music group, which became shortened to odd future. This brand is one of the most trendy brands in town, so don't be disturbed when you see someone in a shirt that has a doughnut label on it.

1. Jahaitian Black Castor Oil
 |
| CAD$6.99 |
This oil is a combination of Jamaican Black Castor Oil and Haitian Black Castor Oil. I used to use just Jamaican Black Castor Oil before I discovered this more effective blend. The healthy blend of both oils aids in cuticle repair and will help you grow strong and healthy hair.
Where to get it: Jahaitian, Clore Beauty Supply, or your local beauty supply store
2. Coconut Oil
 |
| CAD$9.43 |
Ever since natural hair became a trend, everyone has been raving about coconut oil. This oil is highly beneficial and can be used in many ways. It can be used as a mask, used in hot oil treatment or just as a moisture sealant. For me, coconut oil reduces the brittleness of my strands. However, I have come to realize that this oil does not work for everyone. If you have never tried it then I suggest you do.
Where to get it: Amazon, or literally anywhere
3. Kaleidoscope Miracle Drops
 |
| CAD$22.99 |
I'm just going to say that this oil actually does work miracles as the name implies. I heard about this product about 5 months ago and I was a bit skeptical because it was one of those upcoming Instagram brands. About two months later, I came across it in my local beauty supply store and decided to try it. Since then, I've seen a hell of a lot of growth. It also smells very nice. Although this oil has grown my hair the fastest, it is a little pricey for oil.
Where to get it: Amazon, Kaleidoscope hair products,Clore Beauty Supply, or your local beauty supply store
Oils are definitely essential in growing your hair, but I suggest using one or two oils at a time and also using them in moderation. All of these oils have worked for me; they may or may not work for you. Find what works and stick to it. Leave a comment down below if you decide to try them out or if they work for you.
Note: These oils also work for beards so you can stop using spirit.
Stay tuned for more tips.

In honor of France winning the 2018 World Cup, our first dish is going to be a famous French cuisine known as the chocolate souffle. The word souffle originates from the French word "souffler" meaning to puff. A souffle is an egg dish which can either be a savory or sweet dish. Some of the flavors include Lemon souffle, cheese souffle, sweet potato souffle, etc. The chocolate souffle to many is a fancy French dessert which is very difficult to make. However, contrary to popular belief it isn't; people only believe it is because of all the extra ingredients some recipes include. The beauty of the chocolate souffle is its simplicity.
Ingredients
2 large eggs1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons of granulated white sugar
1 tablespoon of butter
2 ounces of dark chocolate, cut into pieces
1 pinch cream of tartar
4 tablespoons of cold milk
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly butter up the banking pan and coat with sugar, tapping out the excess sugar.
- Put a pan of hot water on low heat, don't let it boil or simmer. Put the chocolate pieces in a bowl and place it over the pan.
- Melt the butter in a pan over medium heat, pour the flour into the pan and for about 1-minute whisk until it is incorporated into the butter.
- Reduce the heat to low, stir in the milk until the mixture thickens and becomes smooth. Remove the pan from the heat.
- At this point, the chocolate should be melted. Pour the mixture into the melted chocolate and mix thoroughly. Add one egg yolk and mix. Ensure the bowl is still above the hot water to keep the chocolate melted and prevent it from getting hard.
- Place 2 egg whites in a separate bowl, add the cream of tartar and whisk the mixture. Add the sugar into the mixture gradually and whisk. Continue whisking the mixture until it is as thick as shaving cream.
- Transfer a bit of the egg whites into the chocolate. Mix until the egg whites mixture is fully incorporated into the chocolate. Add the rest of the egg whites mixture into the chocolate; gently combine the mixtures by folding the egg whites into the chocolate a little at a time. Stop mixing after the mixtures have been fully incorporated. Avoid over mixing the mixtures.
- Pour in the mixture into the baking pans, ensure to wipe off excess batter from the edges of the pan to avoid uneven rising of the souffle.
- Bake in preheated oven until souffle has risen above the top of the rims for 12 to 15 minutes.
Recipe notes
While cracking the egg, separate the egg whites from the yolk because of any yolk in the white will prevent them from thickening.
The texture of your souffle is very important; it can either make or break the dish. The texture of a chocolate souffle should be in between a regular cake and a molten lava cake; this means that it should be firm but moist.
This recipe can be topped with powdered sugar, cocoa powder or whipped cream with whatever fruit your heart desires.

“Your earrings are adorable…”, “Love what you did with your hair…”, “I like your eyes…” comments like these go way deeper than we can imagine. Many of us take no notice of these “little” or seemingly insignificant comments, not knowing that the little act of kindness can change a life forever.
You see people every day and no one knows what anyone is really going through; battling with depression, illness, loss of a dear relative or friend or maybe even a bad break up. Let’s not forget those that are bullied or made to feel unimportant on a regular basis.
One kind word from you could stir up light in someone, give them hope that their circumstance isn’t all there is to life. If this seems a little too much for you that is talking to strangers then start with a warm smile, wish them a lovely day and you’ll be surprised how much of a difference you made in someone’s life.

Friendships are probably the greatest things that could ever happen to a person. Having that special friend or maybe a group of them, to share memories with, laugh with and pour out your thoughts to is reassuring and comforting as well; knowing that you’re not alone and that people have your back brings some amount of joy to a person’s life.
Do friends fight? Obviously, they fight! However, like all other relationships: siblings, husbands and wives, they make up and they learn from their mistakes. Sometimes the friendship has to end because of what happened but that is okay also. However, the friend was not bad; he or she just did something you did not like.
Society tries to define a bad friend for us; that person mummy always says you should not be your friends. Now, that person is not a bad friend. The person maybe a bad influence, but he or she is not a bad friend. Even the worst person on this planet is a friend to someone.
Be careful though, when choosing a friend because friends do rub off on each other and I am sure we all want to be affected positively. Do not forget, a person is your friend or not and the definition of a friend is not changing anytime soon.

Planning helps identify goals
One of the most beneficial aspect of planning is in creating goals to accomplish. When you sit down and write out what you want to accomplish you will be surprised how this goal structure lends itself to creating a plan for accomplishing them. There are a couple of different strategies when working on goals. Some of the more popular include creating three goal types, short-term, mid-term, and long-term.
Short-term goals are those items you would like to see done in the next 2-3 days. These goals are quick, easy to accomplish and relatively simple goals. The mid-term goals are things you’d like to accomplish in the next few weeks or months. This is the broadest time scope and can vary in degree of difficulty. Ultimately each of these mid-term goals are concrete, well-defined goals which can be directly actioned. The last goal type is the long-term goal. These goals are much more abstract and contain more figurative type of language. These are the big picture goals and long-term aspirations you hold for your project.
Writing these goals out and organizing them into these three categories (of course you can use more if you like) will give you the great beginnings to a roadmap. This roadmap is what we’ll look at in our next point.
