Remedy For Athlete's Foot

                    

Hi friends,

Recently I travelled to a holiday resort in a village full of greenery and fresh air. It was drizzling moderately with cool mist. I enjoyed a delicious feast at one of the star hotels .During this period of happiness and comfort, I felt a bit down.

This feeling was of mild itching due to some fungal infection between my left toe fingers. The reason for this was due to me wearing high heels during moist climate. I was a little worried because it was a problem that could not be ignored and it was irritating me to the core. I was wondering what could help me get rid of this itchiness. As usual, my mother came to my rescue. She suggested me to first apply drops of lemon juice followed by a thick layer of Boro Plus cream. This had to kept for couple of hours and repeated for three days. The cream had to be continued to be applied on the infected part until the itchiness was completely reduced because this fungal infection is prone to happen again if not taken care. This cream also helps to get rid of the weird smell that results due to infection. Along with this ,a tea tree oil massage,once in a week, will also help to keep this infection at bay.

I was very lucky enough to buy this cream and oil on my journey so could manage this issue else it would have been tough for me to enjoy the breathtaking beauty of this village I had been to.

Glyco 6 Cream Review

Hi friends,

Today I am going to give review of an ointment called Glyco 6. This is a treatment for acne. Glyco 6 is nothing but glycolic acid 6%. I started applying because I have been noticing new pimples breaking out recently without any reason. I guess it's because of stress. I will be posting another update regarding this treatment soon.

Procedure:
Wash your face. Let it dry for about 10 to 20 minutes. Apply this cream on your face. If you feel any stinging sensation, it is normal so nothing to worry. Make sure to apply this only at night. Apply sunscreen whenever moving outside of home.

Results:
I applied it. I did not feel any stinging or heating sensation. I feel my skin was smooth. It's fragrance is very mild and nice. Pimples were kinda reducing in size.
I wore sunscreen without fail. I drank lot of water. My pores were also getting into good shape. This treatment maintains my skin. People try glycolic peels that have more  than 50% of glycolic acid in them. They get good results sooner. This glyco cream is 6% but still it does a good job .It clears spots, scars and changes skin texture to give an even tone to it. It is milder than Retin A treatment. This is a good alternative to Retin A treatment.

Rating: 5/5

I am only suggesting this treatment based on my experience. Consult doctor before trying out any treatments like this because results vary from person to person. This treatment could be tried even during pregnancy because it's concentration level is less than 10% . Well, you could still consider doctor's advice if you are planning to use this treatment during your pregnancy time.
