		Tea addicts, you might want to put your cuppa down before reading this. <media:description><![CDATA[]]></media:description>												
								<content:encoded><![CDATA[&#60;p&#62;&#60;span style=&#34;display: block;&#34; class=&#34;wrap-img&#34; id=&#34;wrap-img-313529&#34;&#62;&#60;img loading=&#34;lazy&#34; decoding=&#34;async&#34; itemprop=&#34;thumbnailUrl&#34; class=&#34;alignleft wp-image-313529 img-responsive  size-large&#34; src=&#34;http://www.mariefranceasia.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/7/2018/05/gettyimages-748492635-1024x683.jpg&#34; alt=&#34;&#34; width=&#34;1024&#34; height=&#34;683&#34; /&#62;&#60;/span&#62;&#60;/p&#62;                   &#60;p&#62;You might want to put your cuppa down for this piece of shocking news. We are all aware that &#60;a href=&#34;http://www.mariefranceasia.com/health/medical-news/coffee-cancer-could-drinking-your-coffee-hot-in-the-morning-cause-cancer-307160.html?utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener&#34;&#62;coffee&#60;/a&#62; stains our teeth and causes yellow discolouration. Because of this, some of us have switched over to tea but we&#8217;re sorry to tell you that drinking tea can still stain your teeth, maybe even worse than coffee.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;With tea containing tannins and our tooth enamels being naturally porous, our teeth tend to absorb the tannins, causing stains and discolouration. The dark pigments in tea can also settle into the ridges of our enamel resulting in yellow teeth.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;Tea contains compounds such as theaflavins, thearubigins and thebrownins, which are even more concentrated in stronger brews. These compounds create a&#160;plaque buildup, turning your gorgeous smile yellow.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;The bad news doesn&#8217;t stop there. If you think you can avoid stained teeth by sipping on the popular healthy brew, &#60;a href=&#34;http://www.mariefranceasia.com/health/medical-news/could-drinking-too-much-green-tea-affect-your-ability-to-have-kids-144070.html?utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener&#34;&#62;green tea&#60;/a&#62;, think again. Unfortunately for green tea lovers, this blend actually contains the highest amount of tannins. Maybe we&#8217;ll just stick to water.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;Don&#8217;t let this news put you off drinking tea just yet. Achieving &#60;a href=&#34;http://www.mariefranceasia.com/beauty/beauty-sos/beauty-tips-and-tricks/pearly-whites-7-dentist-approved-home-whitening-products-300752.html?utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener&#34;&#62;pearly whites&#60;/a&#62; is still possible while sipping on a cup of tea. Having good oral hygiene by brushing your teeth twice a day and going for regular dental checkups can maintain a shining smile.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;em&#62;Shona Menon&#160;&#60;/em&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;em&#62;Photo: Getty Images&#60;/em&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;h2&#62; &#60;span&#62;READ MORE:&#60;/span&#62; &#60;/h2&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;a href=&#34;http://www.mariefranceasia.com/beauty/beauty-sos/beauty-tips-and-tricks/5-natural-ways-to-whiten-your-teeth-169445.html?utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown#item=1&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener&#34;&#62;Perfectly Polished: 5 Natural ways to whiten your teeth&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;a href=&#34;http://www.mariefranceasia.com/health/healthy-practices/wellbeing-tips/healthy-snack-use-fruits-natural-teeth-whitener-126706.html?utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown#item=1&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener&#34;&#62;More Than A Healthy Snack: Use fruits as a natural teeth whitener&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;a href=&#34;http://www.mariefranceasia.com/health/medical-news/quelle-la-meilleure-facon-de-se-brosser-les-dents-37669.html?utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener&#34;&#62;What is the best way to brush your teeth?&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;meta name=&#34;original-source&#34; content=&#34;https://www.mariefranceasia.com/id/beauty-id/beauty-sos-id/the-killer-question-id/drinking-tea-stain-teeth-coffee-313555.html&#34; /&#62;&#60;meta name=&#34;syndication-source&#34; content=&#34;https://www.mariefranceasia.com/id/beauty-id/beauty-sos-id/the-killer-question-id/drinking-tea-stain-teeth-coffee-313555.html&#34; /&#62;&#60;meta name=&#34;robots&#34; content=&#34;noindex, follow&#34; /&#62;]]></content:encoded>

								<content:encoded><![CDATA[&#60;p&#62;&#60;span style=&#34;display: block;&#34; class=&#34;wrap-img&#34; id=&#34;wrap-img-312413&#34;&#62;&#60;img loading=&#34;lazy&#34; decoding=&#34;async&#34; itemprop=&#34;thumbnailUrl&#34; class=&#34;alignleft wp-image-312413 img-responsive  size-large&#34; src=&#34;http://www.mariefranceasia.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/7/2018/05/gettyimages-159132635-1024x768.jpg&#34; alt=&#34;&#34; width=&#34;1024&#34; height=&#34;768&#34; /&#62;&#60;/span&#62;&#60;/p&#62;                     &#60;p&#62;Coconut oil: the beauty world&#8217;s answer to everything. Suffering from dry ends? Apply coconut oil. Got flaky elbows? Apply coconut oil. Having relationship problems? Slather that oil on.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;The coconut oil hype has been around for some time and there are beauty experts that swear by it but should we really be incorporating this oil into our beauty regime? Unfortunately, there&#8217;s no easy answer to this.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;h2&#62; &#60;span&#62;THE GOOD&#60;/span&#62; &#60;/h2&#62; &#60;p&#62;Don&#8217;t get us wrong, this &#039;miracle&#039; oil is full of antioxidants and &#60;a href=&#34;/?p=161022&#38;#038;utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener&#34;&#62;vitamins&#60;/a&#62;, which are great to fight premature ageing and keep your skin hydrated. The nature of their small molecules allows the oil to be absorbed quickly for that boost of hydration.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;h2&#62; &#60;span&#62;... AND THE BAD&#60;/span&#62; &#60;/h2&#62; &#60;p&#62;Despite all these amazing properties, coconut oil also has its downsides. This oil is highly comedogenic, which means it leaves a film over your skin, thus clogging your pores and causing breakouts.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;It is most commonly known to be used as a makeup remover because of its amazing abilities to melt makeup easily. If you do still use it as a remover, it&#8217;s better to thoroughly rinse your face after to prevent clogged pores. However, we recommend keeping it away from your face entirely. Instead, use it to remover your eye makeup only, as there are no oil glands on your peepers.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;h2&#62; &#60;span&#62;ARE THERE OTHER OPTIONS?&#60;/span&#62; &#60;/h2&#62; &#60;p&#62;If you&#039;re into natural oils in your skincare routine, don&#039;t fret as there are other options that are much gentler on the skin compared to coconut oil. Rosehip oil, jojoba oil, and &#60;a href=&#34;/?p=21959&#38;#038;utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener&#34;&#62;argan oil&#60;/a&#62; are some less comedogenic oils that will not clog your pores.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;h2&#62; &#60;span&#62;IS IT FOR YOU?&#60;/span&#62; &#60;/h2&#62; &#60;p&#62;If you&#8217;re still confused whether you should be using coconut oil on your face, it all depends on your skin type. If you have oily, acne-prone skin, stay away from it altogether. For &#60;a href=&#34;/?p=152839&#38;#038;utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener&#34;&#62;dry skin&#60;/a&#62; types, it can be used as a makeup remover as long as you cleanse your face after but never use it as a moisturiser replacement.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;em&#62;Shona Menon&#60;/em&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;em&#62;Photo: Getty Images&#60;/em&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;h2&#62; &#60;span&#62;READ MORE:&#60;/span&#62; &#60;/h2&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;a href=&#34;https://www.mariefranceasia.com/id/health-id/natural-healing-id/alternative-medicine-id/is-it-safe-to-use-coconut-oil-on-your-vagina-307650.html?utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener&#34;&#62;If You&#039;re Wondering: Is it safe to use coconut oil on your vagina?&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;a href=&#34;/?p=200338&#38;#038;utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener&#34;&#62;Nature&#039;s Solutions: The multiple beauty benefits of coconut oil&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;a href=&#34;/?p=137478&#38;#038;utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener&#34;&#62;Bizarre Beauty: Is crocodile oil the next skincare trend?&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;meta name=&#34;original-source&#34; content=&#34;https://www.mariefranceasia.com/id/beauty-id/beauty-sos-id/the-killer-question-id/applying-coconut-oil-face-312518.html&#34; /&#62;&#60;meta name=&#34;syndication-source&#34; content=&#34;https://www.mariefranceasia.com/id/beauty-id/beauty-sos-id/the-killer-question-id/applying-coconut-oil-face-312518.html&#34; /&#62;&#60;meta name=&#34;robots&#34; content=&#34;noindex, follow&#34; /&#62;]]></content:encoded>

(We can vouch for this.)&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;Which is unsurprising that beauty brands have jumped on the bandwagon and whipped up skincare formulas infused with the purported health benefits of these fragrant oils.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;a href=&#34;http://www.mariefranceasia.com/beauty/beauty-sos/beauty-tips-and-tricks/how-to-use-essential-oils-204064.html?utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34;&#62;Essential oils&#60;/a&#62; are, essentially, concentrated essences of a plant, according to the &#60;em&#62;Los Angeles Times&#60;/em&#62;. And contrary to what you might think, the &#34;essential&#34; part of its name stems from the essence - not the fact that it&#039;s actually essential to your life and sustenance.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;However, while its &#60;a href=&#34;http://www.mariefranceasia.com/health/natural-healing/aromatherapy/aromatherapy-products-sleep-229037.html?utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34;&#62;aromatherapeutic benefits&#60;/a&#62; are numerous, the same cannot be said for its benefits when applied topically on your skin. According to the Mayo Clinic, &#34;side effects (of essential oils) may include allergic reactions, skin irritation, &#60;a href=&#34;http://www.mariefranceasia.com/beauty/beauty-buys/skincare/could-you-be-allergic-to-sunlight-210076.html?utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34;&#62;and sun sensitivity&#60;/a&#62;. The gravity of its effects varies from oil to oil, and how each individual use it.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;Paula&#039;s Choice actually identifies essential oils as a major skin irritant to avoid. In fact, citrusy oils like bergamot, lemon, lime, and orange can cause phototoxicity&#160;(i.e. skin cancer or severe burns) on the skin, particularly when exposed to the sun after application, according to a study by the University of Minnesota.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;That is not to say the beauty universe should start demonising&#160;essential oils. After all, oils like lavender scents are arguably every urban dweller&#039;s quick fix to a sound sleep at night. Just be sure not to slather your face with it and rest assured, your visage will be happy and irritant-free!&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;em&#62;Sarah Khan&#60;/em&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;h2&#62; &#60;span&#62;Read More:&#60;/span&#62; &#60;/h2&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;a href=&#34;http://www.mariefranceasia.com/health/healthy-practices/wellbeing-tips/9-therapeutic-house-plants-boost-health-happiness-intelligence-288572.html?utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34;&#62;9 Therapeutic house plants proven to boost health, happiness &#38;amp; brain power&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;a href=&#34;http://www.mariefranceasia.com/lifelove/coaching-lifelove/psychology/happiest-stage-of-marriage-310638.html?utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34;&#62;This is the happiest stage in your marriage, new study discovers&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;a href=&#34;http://www.mariefranceasia.com/health/medical-news/placebo-sleep-how-tricking-your-brain-that-youve-slept-well-can-help-you-focus-better-308646.html?utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34;&#62;&#8216;Placebo Sleep&#8217;: Can believing you&#8217;ve slept well boost your focus?&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/p&#62;  &#60;meta name=&#34;original-source&#34; content=&#34;https://www.mariefranceasia.com/id/beauty-id/beauty-sos-id/the-killer-question-id/311114-311120.html&#34; /&#62;&#60;meta name=&#34;syndication-source&#34; content=&#34;https://www.mariefranceasia.com/id/beauty-id/beauty-sos-id/the-killer-question-id/311114-311120.html&#34; /&#62;&#60;meta name=&#34;robots&#34; content=&#34;noindex, follow&#34; /&#62;]]></content:encoded>

But what exactly is the term waist training and more importantly, is it safe and as effective as people say?&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;https://www.instagram.com/p/0UNRaFuS9V/&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;https://www.instagram.com/p/7GBqlaBRhj/&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;strong&#62;What is waist training?&#60;/strong&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;Waist trainers are the &#34;new&#34; corset that has been around for the longest time. You use it to give your body a better shape and silhouette, reduce your waist size and accentuate your curves. You&#039;re supposed to put them on for as long as 12 hours a day while incorporating exercises and eating healthy.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;strong&#62;The risks of waist training:&#160;&#60;/strong&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;ol&#62; &#60;li&#62;&#60;strong&#62;Harmful to your organs:&#60;/strong&#62; Wearing a waist trainer for a long period of time can harm your organs, misplace them and cause permanent&#160;damage. It will also limit blood and oxygen flow to your vital organs which can lead to dizzy spells and difficulty breathing.&#60;/li&#62; &#60;li&#62;&#60;strong&#62;&#60;strong&#62;Causes dehydration:&#160;&#60;/strong&#62;&#60;/strong&#62;Waist trainers will heat up the core temperature and can cause excessive sweating. This means you&#8217;ll lose water weight and is at risk for dehydration.&#60;/li&#62; &#60;li&#62;&#60;strong&#62;Increases the chances of indigestion:&#160;&#60;/strong&#62;The waist trainer also pressing on your chest area will increase your chance of heartburn and indigestion. Not only can it cause pain, but recurring acid reflux can cause long-term damage by eroding the walls of your esophagus.&#60;/li&#62; &#60;li&#62;&#60;strong&#62;Causes skin irritation:&#60;/strong&#62;&#160;Having a waist trainer wrapped tightly around your waist for hours can cause chafing and rashes.&#60;/li&#62; &#60;li&#62;&#60;strong&#62;Bruising:&#60;/strong&#62; In worst cases, bruising will occur on parts of your core.&#60;/li&#62; &#60;/ol&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;strong&#62;The bottom line&#60;/strong&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;These &#60;a href=&#34;http://www.mariefranceasia.com/fashion/latest-news/new-collections/shape-uniqlos-new-comfort-beauty-wear-128661.html?utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown#item=1&#34;&#62;body shapers&#60;/a&#62; aren&#039;t so good at giving you&#160;permanent, lasting results you&#039;d wish to see.

Being in the centre of the face, the nose is probably the first facial feature people look at when they first look at you.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;A high nose bridge with a rounded tip is a highly coveted feature among many Asian women. In fact, a number of Chinese women (and even men) are searching for reliable doctors in hopes to attain a more beautiful, defined nose.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;In a world where we live in a fast paced society, people are increasingly seeking out&#160;&#60;strong&#62;non-surgical options to augment the nose&#60;/strong&#62; &#8211; safely and conveniently &#8211; with less downtime. There are two options where people can augment their noses &#8211; non-surgically: &#60;strong&#62;Nose Thread Lift and nose fillers&#60;/strong&#62;.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;h2&#62; &#60;span&#62;What is nose filler?&#60;/span&#62; &#60;/h2&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;span style=&#34;display: block;&#34; class=&#34;wrap-img&#34; id=&#34;wrap-img-266297&#34;&#62;&#60;img loading=&#34;lazy&#34; decoding=&#34;async&#34; class=&#34;aligncenter wp-image-266297 img-responsive &#34; src=&#34;http://www.mariefranceasia.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/7/2017/07/nose-filler.jpg&#34; alt=&#34;&#34; width=&#34;690&#34; height=&#34;427&#34; /&#62;&#60;/span&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;a href=&#34;http://radium-aesthetics.com/treatment/sculpting-facial-fillers-singapore/?utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34;&#62;Nose filler treatment&#60;/a&#62; usually involves &#60;strong&#62;injecting Hyaluronic Acid (HA) fillers into the skin&#60;/strong&#62;. It is used to sculpt the nose by &#60;strong&#62;precisely adding volume to the nose&#60;/strong&#62;. These fillers are made of HA gel, which are compatible with your body.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;After the numbing cream or local anesthetic has set in, the doctor will inject HA fillers into the bridge and tip of the nose to &#60;strong&#62;give it height and projection&#60;/strong&#62;.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;h2&#62; &#60;span&#62;Can nose filler treatments have side effects?&#60;/span&#62; &#60;/h2&#62; &#60;p&#62;Some mild swelling or redness can be expected at the injection points. Some bruising may also occur. However, these side effects should subside in a day or two.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;If nose filler treatment is performed by an inexperienced injector, there is also a possibility of infection and vascular complications such as skin necrosis and even blindness. Although this rarely happens, a detailed consultation with the doctor is necessary to find out what the risks are and if the doctor is skilled enough to carry out the treatment.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;h2&#62; &#60;span&#62;How long does nose filler last?&#60;/span&#62; &#60;/h2&#62; &#60;p&#62;Nose filler can last for &#60;strong&#62;up to 12 months&#60;/strong&#62; after the treatment. If repeated regularly, it can last for as long as 36 months, depending on individual.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;h2&#62; &#60;span&#62;What is nose thread lift?&#60;/span&#62; &#60;/h2&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;span style=&#34;display: block;&#34; class=&#34;wrap-img&#34; id=&#34;wrap-img-266298&#34;&#62;&#60;img loading=&#34;lazy&#34; decoding=&#34;async&#34; class=&#34;aligncenter wp-image-266298 img-responsive &#34; src=&#34;http://www.mariefranceasia.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/7/2017/07/gettyimages-167146338-1024x589.jpg&#34; alt=&#34;&#34; width=&#34;690&#34; height=&#34;397&#34; /&#62;&#60;/span&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;Thanks to the latest medical technology, the nose can also be augmented non-surgically using &#60;strong&#62;polydioxanone (PDO) threads that are 100% bio-compatible and absorbable&#60;/strong&#62; by our bodies.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;Also known as a &#8216;lunchtime nose job&#8217;, &#60;a href=&#34;http://radium-aesthetics.com/treatment/k-define-nose-thread-lift/?utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34;&#62;PDO Nose Thread Lift&#60;/a&#62; is a treatment that can be completed in under an hour. Because of the minimal downtime, patients can resume their daily activities thereafter.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;After numbing and application of local anesthetic, the doctor places &#60;strong&#62;fine threads along the nasal bridge &#60;/strong&#62;for the height and the septum to give projection to the nose. The threads are placed under the skin to &#60;strong&#62;elevate the nose bridge and tip while stimulating collagen formation&#60;/strong&#62; to provide sustainable lift for the nose.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;The number of threads required varies according to individuals. An initial consult with the doctor is required to determine the current shape of the nose and the desired outcome before he can decide the number of threads required.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;Results are immediately visible as the threads provide the scaffold for the nose.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;h2&#62; &#60;span&#62;Does Nose Thread Lift have side effects?&#60;/span&#62; &#60;/h2&#62; &#60;p&#62;As the PDO threads are bio-absorbable, they will be broken down in 6 to 8 months after the treatment. PDO is an essential material used by surgeons for their surgical sutures.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;It is normal to experience some soreness and swelling immediately after the treatment. However, these side effects will subside in a few days.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;h2&#62; &#60;span&#62;How long does Nose Thread Lift last?&#60;/span&#62; &#60;/h2&#62; &#60;p&#62;Results from a Nose Thread Lift treatment can usually last for &#60;strong&#62;about 1-2 years&#60;/strong&#62;. If the treatment is repeated 9 months after the initial treatment, you can expect the result to be longer-lasting. With stimulation of collagen in the nose, some permanent lifting can be expected.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;h2&#62; &#60;span&#62;So, which is better and safer: Nose Thread Lift or Nose Filler?&#60;/span&#62; &#60;/h2&#62; &#60;p&#62;It is a perennial question that many people ask. The truth is, there are associated benefits and risks pertaining to each treatment.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;span style=&#34;display: block;&#34; class=&#34;wrap-img&#34; id=&#34;wrap-img-266295&#34;&#62;&#60;img loading=&#34;lazy&#34; decoding=&#34;async&#34; class=&#34;aligncenter wp-image-266295 img-responsive &#34; src=&#34;http://www.mariefranceasia.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/7/2017/07/screen-shot-2017-07-24-at-10.36.06-am.png&#34; alt=&#34;&#34; width=&#34;690&#34; height=&#34;513&#34; /&#62;&#60;/span&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;Although undergoing either procedure can effectively augment the nose, some doctors prefer to perform &#60;strong&#62;a combination treatment&#60;/strong&#62; so that the patient can have a more defined nose.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;By harnessing the benefits of both treatments, you will be able to enjoy a beautiful nose that has a definitive structure with a longer-lasting lift.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;em&#62;This article was contributed by &#60;a href=&#34;http://www.radium-aesthetics.com/?utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34;&#62;Radium Medical Aesthetics&#60;/a&#62;.

		Is that green tinge nothing to worry about, or is it a sign that something is wrong?<media:description><![CDATA[]]></media:description>												
								<content:encoded><![CDATA[&#60;img loading=&#34;lazy&#34; itemprop=&#34;thumbnailUrl&#34; width=&#34;750&#34; height=&#34;410&#34; decoding=&#34;async&#34; src=&#34;/rw-placeholder/750/410/image.svg&#34; data-src=&#34;https://www.mariefranceasia.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/7/2017/06/jewellery-allergy-750x410.jpg&#34; class=&#34;lazy-load attachment-rw_large size-rw_large zoom-it wp-post-image&#34; alt=&#34;&#34; /&#62;&#60;noscript&#62;&#60;img loading=&#34;lazy&#34; decoding=&#34;async&#34; width=&#34;750&#34; height=&#34;410&#34; src=&#34;https://www.mariefranceasia.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/7/2017/06/jewellery-allergy-750x410.jpg&#34; class=&#34;attachment-rw_large size-rw_large zoom-it wp-post-image&#34; alt=&#34;&#34; /&#62;&#60;/noscript&#62;  &#60;p&#62;Allergic reactions come in all shapes and sizes, but it&#8217;s easy to automatically associate it with the food you eat. Occasionally, there will be mentions of allergies to bee stings, but a reaction to jewellery is not usually easily identified, nor talked about in detail. &#60;/p&#62; &#60;h2&#62; &#60;span&#62;&#60;strong&#62;How to identify&#60;/strong&#62;&#60;/span&#62; &#60;/h2&#62; &#60;p&#62;Seeing your skin turn green after wearing your favourite&#160;&#60;a href=&#34;/?p=156499&#38;#038;utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener&#34;&#62;vintage necklace&#60;/a&#62; can be worrying. Fortunately, that is not a sign of an allergic reaction. This is what happens when the acids on your skin (or the ingredients in the body cream you&#8217;re using) react with the metals, causing the metal to oxidise. Sweating also quickens the process of oxidation because of the amount of moisture released. &#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;While this mean that the green stain is largely harmless, take note if your &#60;a href=&#34;/?p=252492&#38;#038;utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener&#34;&#62;skin shows other signs of distress&#60;/a&#62;. Some common symptoms include swelling, itchiness, and your skin turning red, but it varies from person to person. Extreme signs like a burning sensation, blistering, and even bleeding may also happen if you&#8217;re allergic to your jewellery. These symptoms are likely to take a long time to dissipate once you&#8217;ve removed the item as well. &#60;/p&#62; &#60;h2&#62; &#60;span&#62;&#60;strong&#62;What you might be allergic to&#60;/strong&#62;&#60;/span&#62; &#60;/h2&#62; &#60;p&#62;Allergic reactions occur when your immune system attacks a harmless substance to stop its path into your body. For jewellery allergies, it is not much different. &#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;strong&#62;Nickel allergy&#60;/strong&#62; is the most common, with nearly 20% of people experiencing either blistering or &#60;a href=&#34;/?p=152839&#38;#038;utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener&#34;&#62;dry skin&#60;/a&#62; when this metal comes into contact with their skin. Most of the time, nickel is mixed with other metals, so your jewellery might have trace amounts of it, which your skin might be sensitive to. Nickel easily dissolves, forming salts that easily enters the skin, causing reactions. &#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;strong&#62;Copper and cobalt&#60;/strong&#62; are two other metals that have been known to cause allergic reactions. Copper is favoured for producing a lovely red tint that gives rose gold metal its iconic shade, while cobalt is used to increase the durability of jewellery. &#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;Reactions to &#60;strong&#62;silver and gold&#60;/strong&#62; are two rarer forms of allergies, but that doesn&#039;t mean it&#8217;s not possible. Gold allergies can be more severe, as the reaction may last up to a month from contact.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;Okay so, now what?

After all, the textbooks say acne is the result of your puberty years (because your skin &#60;em&#62;clearly&#60;/em&#62; needed the additional distress), on top of hormonal imbalances and the weird growth spurt that hit you &#60;a href=&#34;/?p=206622&#38;#038;utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener&#34;&#62;overnight&#60;/a&#62;.

As the days keep going, turning from weeks to months, you begin to realise something: your acne is not going away. &#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;Adult acne affects over 50% of women and 25% of men. This means that nearly every other woman in the world (and one in four men) have found themselves with the appearance of acne well past their teenage years. Just because it is common does &#60;em&#62;not &#60;/em&#62;mean it should be ignored, though. You might actually need to visit a dermatologist to see if there are any underlying causes.

Not only does it prevent you from getting skin cancer, it also &#60;a href=&#34;https://www.mariefranceasia.com/id/beauty-id/beauty-buys-id/best-anti-pollution-beauty-products-241288.html?utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener&#34;&#62;protects our skin&#60;/a&#62; from ultraviolet rays no matter if you burn or don&#8217;t. But, no, this article is &#60;em&#62;not &#60;/em&#62;on the usefulness of sunscreen. By now, you can probably rattle off a list of benefits and advantages that sunscreen brings and you are probably already sick of it.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;What we are going to talk about here are&#60;strong&#62; sunscreen powders. &#60;/strong&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;Unlike its counterparts, sunscreen powders are &#60;strong&#62;filled with little &#60;a href=&#34;/?p=214966&#38;#038;utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener&#34;&#62;minerals&#60;/a&#62; that help prevent your skin from the deadly rays of the sun&#60;/strong&#62;. Lotion sunscreen has been a go-to for decades, but liquid and aerosol sunscreens have also made an appearance in recent times. Sunscreen powders, on the other hand, have not made as big of a splash, and is commonly used on top of regular sunscreen. If you&#8217;re debating if you should add this to your collection, here are a few points of consideration. &#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;em&#62;Lee Hui Bing&#60;/em&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;h2&#62; &#60;span&#62;Read More:&#60;/span&#62; &#60;/h2&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;a title=&#34;&#34; href=&#34;/?p=219363&#38;#038;utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34;&#62;Beauty 101: The right way to layer your skincare products&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;a title=&#34;&#34; href=&#34;/?p=108109&#38;#038;utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34;&#62;Pout Protectors: 10 SPF lip products to shield your smackers&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;a title=&#34;&#34; href=&#34;/?p=113819&#38;#038;utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34;&#62;SPF Locked In: Sun protection for your hair&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;meta name=&#34;original-source&#34; content=&#34;https://www.mariefranceasia.com/id/beauty-id/beauty-sos-id/the-killer-question-id/sunscreen-powders-259698.html&#34; /&#62;&#60;meta name=&#34;syndication-source&#34; content=&#34;https://www.mariefranceasia.com/id/beauty-id/beauty-sos-id/the-killer-question-id/sunscreen-powders-259698.html&#34; /&#62;&#60;meta name=&#34;robots&#34; content=&#34;noindex, follow&#34; /&#62;]]></content:encoded>

		The next best thing in cleansing, or just another fad? <media:description><![CDATA[]]></media:description>												
								<content:encoded><![CDATA[&#60;p&#62;&#60;span style=&#34;display: block;&#34; class=&#34;wrap-img&#34; id=&#34;wrap-img-256207&#34;&#62;&#60;img loading=&#34;lazy&#34; decoding=&#34;async&#34; itemprop=&#34;thumbnailUrl&#34; class=&#34;aligncenter wp-image-256207 img-responsive &#34; src=&#34;http://www.mariefranceasia.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/7/2017/06/gettyimages-593744260-625x332.jpg&#34; alt=&#34;&#34; width=&#34;650&#34; height=&#34;345&#34; /&#62;&#60;/span&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;With the invention of acne pads, you no longer have to squeeze the benzoyl peroxide gel out laboriously in your bathroom. Acne pads are soaked with varying concoctions, all aimed to reduce redness and control breakouts. So, all you need to do is to swipe them across your face and you&#039;re all set!&#60;/p&#62;&#60;p&#62; But, is it really that simple?&#60;/p&#62; &#60;h2&#62; &#60;span&#62;&#60;strong&#62;Bright Side: There are a few perks to it&#60;/strong&#62;&#60;/span&#62; &#60;/h2&#62; &#60;p&#62;Acne pads are usually formulated with salicylic acid, with varying percentages depending on the intensity of the product. Salicylic acid essentially &#60;strong&#62;exfoliates one&#8217;s skin&#60;/strong&#62;, shedding away clogged pores and reducing&#160;inflammation. This means that they are able to remove blackheads and whiteheads, while controlling oil production. &#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;Compared to alternatives, acne pads are &#60;strong&#62;much easier to use&#60;/strong&#62;. With a single&#160;pad, you are able to cleanse and &#60;a href=&#34;https://www.mariefranceasia.com/id/beauty-id/beauty-sos-id/beauty-tips-and-tricks-id/best-beauty-juice-skin-244887.html?utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener noreferrer&#34;&#62;manage your skin&#60;/a&#62;, then just throw it away. There is no fuss about it, unlike other options where there are certain procedures to undertake before cleansing. Often packaged in a small container, they are often &#60;strong&#62;travel-friendly&#60;/strong&#62; and fuss-free as well. More than just the removal of dirt from our skin, some brand&#160;brands can also exfoliate and remove makeup, which reduces yet another step in the &#60;a href=&#34;/?p=227174&#38;#038;utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener noreferrer&#34;&#62;skincare process&#60;/a&#62;. &#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;span style=&#34;display: block;&#34; class=&#34;wrap-img&#34; id=&#34;wrap-img-256164&#34;&#62;&#60;img loading=&#34;lazy&#34; decoding=&#34;async&#34; class=&#34;aligncenter wp-image-256164 img-responsive &#34; src=&#34;http://www.mariefranceasia.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/7/2017/06/gettyimages-530018383-625x417.jpg&#34; alt=&#34;&#34; width=&#34;650&#34; height=&#34;433&#34; /&#62;&#60;/span&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;h2&#62; &#60;span&#62;&#60;strong&#62;But, be cautious!&#60;/strong&#62;&#60;/span&#62; &#60;/h2&#62; &#60;p&#62;However, &#60;strong&#62;not everyone can use it&#60;/strong&#62;. Dermatologists have &#60;strong&#62;advised people with darker skin to practice caution when dealing with salicylic acid&#60;/strong&#62;. Due to the higher levels of melanin in their skin, &#60;strong&#62;the acid may react negatively and stain the skin permanently&#60;/strong&#62;. People with &#60;a href=&#34;/?p=193217&#38;#038;utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener noreferrer&#34;&#62;sensitive skin&#60;/a&#62; also have to be wary because the pads may dry out your skin tremendously &#8212; especially if you are using a product with a higher concentration to clear stubborn acne. &#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;Even if you do not have sensitive skin, using these pads daily might not be the best option&#8230; unless, of course, it is manufactured for daily usage, because of the harsh chemicals. Some people have &#60;strong&#62;noted negative side-effects&#60;/strong&#62; like &#60;strong&#62;redness, peeling, and flaking&#60;/strong&#62;&#160;after cleansing, so one should be on the lookout for telltale signs of distress on your skin, and either reduce the frequency or discontinue usage if it persists. &#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;Further, some brands recommend higher usage of sunscreen post-cleansing as it heightens sensitivity in your skin, making it &#60;strong&#62;more vulnerable to ultraviolet rays&#60;/strong&#62;. In sunny Singapore, this is a big area of concern&#160;as the weather fluctuates immensely, and getting a sunburn to prevent further skin damage seems quite counteractive.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;And we haven&#039;t begun&#160;to talk about &#60;a href=&#34;https://www.mariefranceasia.com/id/beauty-id/beauty-sos-id/the-killer-question-id/makeup-remover-wipes-wrinkles-243038.html?utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener noreferrer&#34;&#62;the effectiveness of wipes, in general&#60;/a&#62;, when it comes to skincare.&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;Ultimately, at the end of the day, the effectiveness of these acne pads differs based on your skin type and the severity of blemishes. But it is hard to argue against the convenience and ease-of-use of the pads that makes it oh-so-attractive. The most important thing&#160;is knowing what works for your skin and modifying what&#160;doesn&#039;t.&#60;/p&#62;  &#60;p&#62;&#60;em&#62;Lee Hui Bing&#60;/em&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;em&#62;Photo: Getty Images&#60;/em&#62;&#60;/p&#62;  &#60;h2&#62; &#60;span&#62;Read More:&#60;/span&#62; &#60;/h2&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;a title=&#34;&#34; href=&#34;/?p=236702&#38;#038;utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34;&#62;Facial Footnotes: 3 Signs your facial is not suitable for your skin&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;a title=&#34;&#34; href=&#34;/?p=201321&#38;#038;utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34;&#62;Forever Flawless: The best anti-ageing facial treatments in Singapore&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/p&#62; &#60;p&#62;&#60;a title=&#34;&#34; href=&#34;/?p=172483&#38;#038;utm_source=rss_feed&#38;#038;utm_medium=link&#38;#038;utm_campaign=unknown&#34;&#62;Skin Friendly: 7 Natural ingredients that double as facial cleansers&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/p&#62;  &#60;meta name=&#34;original-source&#34; content=&#34;https://www.mariefranceasia.com/id/beauty-id/beauty-sos-id/the-killer-question-id/acne-pads-pros-cons-256421.html&#34; /&#62;&#60;meta name=&#34;syndication-source&#34; content=&#34;https://www.mariefranceasia.com/id/beauty-id/beauty-sos-id/the-killer-question-id/acne-pads-pros-cons-256421.html&#34; /&#62;&#60;meta name=&#34;robots&#34; content=&#34;noindex, follow&#34; /&#62;]]></content:encoded>
