The Beautiful Cloud

Hello beautiful people!

So of those of you who may know me, I have sensitive teeth and early stages of receding gums (I have a VERY strong feeling that it's to do with my orthodontic treatment I did when I was in secondary school (high school for those in America?) so I've always been cautious when trying new methods/home treatments on my teeth!

I had noticed only recently, that my teeth have gotten extremely yellow... to the point where I am embarrassed to smile despite having straight teeth. I did a campaign video for my company and when I saw myself smile and laugh in the clip I nearly died ... my teeth were like smokers teeth!

You can really see how my gums have receded :( My teeth are so big... it's so gross to look at. So having yellow teeth definitely does not help.

After trying SOOOOO many different home remedies, which none of them worked, I decided to look at professional options.

When I asked my dentist if I should get teeth whitening she said because my teeth are sensitive plus I have receding gums I shouldn't get them done because it may make them more sensitive, so since then I was scared to even think about getting them done by the dentist. Hence why I put it off for so many years! Until recently, I saw a groupon deal for Teeth Whitening Fairies and they use only organic ingredients for their gels and specifically stated that these don't make your teeth sensitive! That was a huge win for me! SO ... after some thinking, I went ahead and bought the voucher. It was around 35euro I think. It's actually quite a good price considering all the other alternatives probably added up to around the same price with no results!!

So when I went in, the girls were very nice and the whole treatment took 1 hour! They compared my teeth color to a scale and my teeth started off at S28 and by the end of the treatment it went down to S16!

Personally, I didn't notice the difference when I was there because I had those special UV light lamps over me for 1 hour, but the next day and the following days I really noticed the difference in colour and I was SOOOOO happy! For the first time I was like.. my teeth are kind of nice! Hence I went and bought another voucher and will get another treatment in a few weeks time (have to wait at least 4 weeks to do the next one!)

SO here is the result! I know the lighting is different, but I'll take a better one once I get my camera fixed (it's off to the manufacturer to get repaired!)

I had to be very careful thought the first few days to NOT eat or drink ANYTHING that would stain my teeth. They said basically anything that can stain a white shirt will stain your teeth.

This is by far the best method for teeth whitening. If you can find somewhere that does ORGANIC ingredients teeth whitening gels, ask them if it will make your teeth sensitive and look at their reviews. I used to be against getting them whitened professionally, but after seeing such great results after 1 treatment, I am now 100% for it now because this is the only way I saw immediate results with no side effects!

I am in no way affiliated with Teeth Whitening Fairies, but I am just so grateful for them making my teeth whiter without the awful sensitive feeling after! If anyone is from Dublin and looking to get their teeth whitened, I would highly recommend them :)

In my next post, I'll write about which treatments I tried that FAILED and also their side effects after trying it!!!

Lots of love,

Hello all you beautiful people,

So today, I bring to you something I swear by for spots... I never usually swear by anything but since I have tested this and worked wonders for me, I have decided to share it with those of you who are also looking for a solution!!!

(you can see the red spots forming on my nose, the signs of a huge spot on its way)

So last week I had a HUGE spot on my nose, literally like a statement stamp on my face as it was the most central part and probably the first thing anyone will see when they see me. It's one of those painful spots that is sore to touch... it's not quite visible yet, BUT you KNOW it's coming!! It starts off as a small red bump under the skin, then it grows, and grows... and before you know it, its a huge lump which is most probably filled with puss. (sorry for the gross details!)

Well I have had my fair share of those deep spots, I think I had 4 on my nose at one stage and it was the worst feeling ever because it was so sore and everyone would just stare at my nose when I talk to them. Since then I've only gotten them when I'm stressed, or when I grow my nails long (weird I know, but I think it's because your nails trap so much bacteria! so if you have long nails, lots of spots on your face and are touching your face a lot then maybe stop touching your face or scratching it!)

Ok, so what did I do? Well I have a tincture of propolis from my partner from when he was in Brazil, he said it's got these super healing powers.. blah blah blah, but I never really paid much attention to it, I used it when I was feeling a bit unwell, but this time I thought maybe I'll try it on my spot. So after I showered and washed my face, I used my ring finger and gently dabbed the liquid all over my nose... I topped it over probably 4 times or so. Then you just leave it there. Once it's dried you can apply makeup over it or just leave it the way it is. It smells strong when its wet but when its dried you won't notice it.

Propolis is a natural antibiotic, so protects against bacteria! Propolis is commonly used for its healing, antiseptic and restorative capabilities.

The propolis I have here is nothing fancy, it's one he got in the pharmacy for probably an equivalent of 3-4euro. I'm not sure what the price of it is in Europe, but perhaps you can find some online. Also, make sure it's pure propolis extract. Should only have 2 ingredients, this one is 40% propolis extract ( meaning there's alcohol and pure propolis!

The next day I was so surprised, the spot was no longer sore... so I applied the propolis on my nose religiously until the spot was gone and it also helped heal the scars faster!!! So the redness went away much quicker than it did previously!

This photo is from a week after using propolis everyday!

Because it worked so well on these super deep and painful spots, I would say if you have acne, you should definitely try give propolis a go! I'm not dermatologist so be sure to do your own research before using, but it works like magic for me and those nasty spots!

Has any of you guys used propolis on spots before??

Let me know how it goes if you do use it!

Lots of love,

Eneshai
