Over 40 and still struggling with Acne

My fight against Acne

40 plus with acneWhen I look back and think about me as a young girl going through puberty, the first thing that goes through my mind is “acne”. I was about 12 years old when the first pimples started to show up in my face. Gosh, I hated it. During my whole youth I suffered from acne. I tried everything from prescribed medication to home remedies, changing eating habits but nothing really worked. I found out that there are many myths around solving the acne problem.

Stop biting your Finger Nails

Nail biting is a habit that is not easy to quit. It often is a reflection of extreme nervousness, inability to handle stressful situations or boredom. I am (or was !) a nail biter myself. I have broken this bad habit 3 months ago through simply applying nail polish or nail hardener on a regular basis. No day passes by without nail polish or hardener ! Result: I can wear my lovely big rings again because I can show off my nails now !
