Beauty Myths

As you know there are many beauty myths out there so we've decided to do a segment where we find out beauty myths and prove them right or wrong.

Today's beauty myth asked on Facebook.

"Hey Maya and Olivia, does Vaseline make you eyelashes longer?"

- Unfortunately, no, Vaseline doesn't make your eyelashes grow but it does create and effect which makes them look fuller and longer. The Vaseline moisturises your eyelashes and makes them stronger which makes them less likely to fall out and have a better chance of growing abit. It also make your eyelashes thicker and makes them shinier.

- It offers no proven nutrition for them and is more greasy than moisturising. The vaseline may irritate your eyes and can potentially clog the pores around your eyes. To acheive nourished lashes, look for a mascara formula that offers vitamin and colagen rich ingredients.

- These special mascaras and treatments are scientifically proven to make your eyelashes grow, so go check them out!

We hope you have all had a great start to the new year and we are looking forward to answering more questions - so keep them coming!

Thank you,

• Nutrition including fresh vegetable juice such as carrots are great for better-looking skin. Carrot juice is used for skin health to provide glowing skin! One of the best ways to slow the ageing of skin is to ensure the skin is well hydrated by drinking fresh juice and plenty of water!

Procrastination

Hey, sorry it's been a while - Maya and I have been revising for exams have and been ill, but we're back and ready to write more posts for you!


I'm so excited for Christmas, but, as usual, I've been set holiday homework. In the holidays I always procrastinate and leave it to the last day to do my homework, which means I never relax in the holidays. But now when I do my homework I put away my phone and any other distractions - I always find myself on them! I'm going to give you a few tips on how to complete your homework and have an awesome holiday!

1) Avoid any distractions - they are the main reason you procrastinate, so avoiding distractions when working is key.

2) Have a small snack - brain power is essential, you don't want to be half asleep when doing homework. Having a snack can help you complete homework at a higher standard, keeps you more alert and gives you more energy to be determined to get your homework done and out of the way.

3) Try and create a goal or reward - doing this helps greatly as it makes you more determined to finish your homework and gives you something to work towards.

4) Working environment - try and work in a place with a good working environment is (eg quiet, no distractions etc)

5) Take short breaks - taking short breaks between each piece helps because it helps you to concerntrate and focus better.

6) Free time - think of the free time you will have to enjoy once your homework is complete - this will help motivate yourself to get your homework done.


Even though we hate homework, it has to be done. I hope these tips helped! Plenty of new posts coming soon. New posts every Monday and Thursday!


Also, check out our new Facebook page! We will be posting any new changes/updates, and  and let you know when a new post has been updated - we will also be happy to answer any questions you have.

Happy Christmas!

Much love, Olivia
