Carrot Seed Essential Oil is the most underrated essential oils ever, however the human race is suddenly waking up to its immense benefits. One of the overlooked aspect of the oil is that it contains Carotene, Carotenoids and Vitamin A, which is very good for healthy skin, hair, gums and teeth. Also, it has a soft earthy smell that relieves stress and exhaustion, detoxifies and stimulates skin rejuvenation. Carotene creates a formative action on the epidermal cells that keeps wrinkles at bay and fights age spots.

With so many benefits, no wonder Carrot Seed Essential Oil has taken the beauty industry by storm and is making its presence felt in most products in the skincare and haircare ranges. Recently one of my favorite brands launched two new ranges of products - Goat Milk Range and Carrot Seed Range.

NEUD Carrot Seed Premium Face Wash
The Face Wash is infused with pure carrot seed extract and is naturally pH-balanced that not only cleans sweat, oil, pollution and grime, but also restores freshness of the delicate facial skin. Oleic acid and geranial in carrot seeds eases skin inflammation and inhibits enzymes that cause dermatitis. As a natural powerhouse of vitamin A, α, β and γ carotenes, and carotenoids, the face wash enables to have a youthful, healthy facial skin that fights off cell damage caused by free radicals, UV radiation and pollution.

NEUD Carrot Seed Premium Hydrating Lotion
The Lotion is infused with pure carrot seed extract and is naturally pH-balanced that penetrates easily, nourishes deeply, tightens and rejuvenates the skin to give it a flawless look. The formula helps restore skin’s elasticity, making it plump, healthy and soft while the protein in the oil promotes new skin cell formation, reduces wrinkles and scars and removes free radicals.

NEUD Carrot Seed Premium Shampoo
The Shampoo s infused with pure carrot seed extract and is naturally pH-balanced that helps restore hair luster as it cleans scalp, reduces frizz, repairs split ends and soothes irritation and itching without washing away natural oil. As a natural powerhouse of vitamin A, α, β and γ carotenes, and carotenoids, the conditioner helps achieve shiny, healthy hair while preventing hair damage caused by free radicals, UV radiation and pollution.

NEUD Carrot Seed Premium Hair Conditioner
The Conditioner is infused with pure carrot seed extract and is naturally pH-balanced that helps moisturize hair, increase elasticity, improve texture and above all reduce split ends and breakage. As a natural powerhouse of vitamin A, α, β and γ carotenes, and carotenoids, the conditioner helps achieve shiny, healthy hair while preventing hair damage caused by free radicals, UV radiation and pollution.

All products from NEUD are clinically tested by renowned dermatologists and skin specialists making them 100% effective for skin and hair. The NEUD Carrot Seed is the most amazing range I’ve come across to help your skin and hair bounce back to its original avatar in a natural and organic way. I’m making this switch and if you are I would highly recommend you to try the new NEUD range, check https://neud.co.in/ for product availability.

Until next time,

One of the most magical fashion essentials today is shape wear, that helps smoothens out every unflattering bulge on your body. Its almost like someone has photoshopped your body in real life making it red carpet ready every single time you wear it. However, as this garment makes it to every closet in the world, an impending issue about the arrays of styles and fabrics make it complicated to pick. So the dilemma that everyone faces is which fit will work best for your body, which, which style will compliment your wardrobe and which fabric will iron out your look. 

I have earlier written about the fit and style of shape wear that needs to be considered, and so today I tackle an important question…. the fabric of the shape wear that is very important as it plays a huge role in comfort and benefit of the article. 
Feelingirl Lycra Backless Shapewear Butt Lifter Slimming Bodysuit
Seamless:
Just as the name type, seamless shape wear blends into your clothing like skin to give you comfort and confidence all day long. The best slimming bodysuit are seamless as they not only hide the bulges and make the edges smoother but also are extremely breathable.
Feelingirl Seamless High Waisted Tummy Control Panties Best Shapewear Under Dress
Silicone Lining: 
No matter what part of the body is needed to be shaped, silicon lining offers undetectable edges with no curls while holding the garment firmly in place. All types of shape wear including tummy tuckers and thigh shapers are available with silicone lining which will make you feel confident in every move. 
Feelingirl Women Arm Compression Post Surgery Front Closure Bra
Xtra Stretch: 
One of the best fabrics to opt for is the Xtra Stretch with a healthy mix of Spandex and Elastic. This fabric is mostly used in waist trainer shorts as it can be stretched repetitively and recover its original shape. There will not be any case of the shape wear becoming overstretched or sassy over time. 

Having said that, every body is beautiful in itself and yet we choose to see how unsatisfying it is to our own eye. And as body makeup, shape wear surely stands out and helps boost your body confidence. Most of my shape wear is from FeelinGirl and I picked my shapewear after reading some amazing FeelinGirl reviews online, so just trust me and just pick up the best products available for their website.

I recently had a eureka moment and couldn’t hold my excitement to share this amazing find with you all. But I first wanted to make sure that it wasn’t just a good day, but a sure shot formula, a magical ingredient, that totally works wonders.  

So the ingredient I’m talking about is Goat's Milk. Something that I accidentally used at my moms and cant stop raving about. But before I reveal the secret… let me assure you that I did my own research and found that there are numerous hair and skin benefits of using goat's milk in your everyday products. 

So the imperative question is what are the beauty benefits of Goat milk? 

~ Goat milk is the same PH levels as human skin, so it maintains skin's natural acid mantle and balance.
~ Goat milk contains fatty acids that help deeply moisturise dry and damaged skin. 
~ Goat milk also contains lactic acid that exfoliates the skin while maintaining moisture.
~ Goat milk is rich in proteins and thus deeply nourishes hair and gives a natural shine.

So when I heard the one of my go-to brands had launched an entire range of skin and hair care products infused with Goat milk, I knew I had to try it. I picked the products and here’s a snap shot of my experience.


The NEUD Goat Milk Face Wash 
When I first used the face wash I could instantly feel the gently exfoliating and hydration. Its been a week since I’m using the face wash and I can see a clear difference in my skin tone and skin health. There is a deep glow as the face wash nourishes from within, making the skin super soft and smooth. 

The NEUD Goat Milk Shampoo
The shampoo is by far my favourite product from the range. It lathers beautifully, and cleanses with minimum effort. The AHA exfoliates and the pH level maintains the balance of the scalp while locking in moisture, giving the hair a new lease of life with an exceptionally healthy bounce and volume. 

The NEUD Goat Milk Conditioner
The conditioner is an amazing smooth texture and just glides onto the hair beautifully making the process extremely manageable. The vitamins and minerals in the conditioner helps strengthen each strand, reducing brittleness and breakage; and giving hair a lustrous shine. 

The NEUD Goat Milk Lotion
The lotion is a great product in this range for all skin types as it is made of all natural product and so it caters to all skin issues including dryness and pigmentation. It also acts on age spots, wrinkles while brightening the skin tone. Goat milk is also said to promote new skin cells helping skin rejuvenation. 

So if you are looking to improve your skin and hair care routines, switch to goat milk based products and I would highly recommend you to try the NEUD range, check https://neud.co.in/ for product availability.

As humans, the biggest mistake we make is believing anything and everything we read and hear. However, another problem lies in the fact that we fail to ask questions to understand better and resign with the thought that we can do nothing about it. 

One such topic we are ignorant about is Palm Oil… believing every myth about the environmental and social problems, including deforestation, child labour, forest fires and climate change that have been formed over many years. However how true are these assertions about the world’s most consumed edible oil? I wrote in detail about everything we need to know about Palm Oil in an earlier article here. 

In a webcast organised by the Malaysian Palm Oil Council, industry expert Bhavna Shah strived to create awareness about Palm Oil and debunked some common myths.

Myth #1: Palm Oil causes Deforestation
As per the latest European Commission report, deforestation can be both human and natural. Livestock ranching, agriculture expansion, logging, paper production, mining, urban sprawl, wildfire and climate change are among the largest contributors and the global share of palm oil plantation that causes deforestation accounts for only 2.3%.

Myth #2: Palm Oil requires large-scale Plantations
Palm trees grow on both large-scale plantations as well as small-scale family farms. Almost 40% of the palm oil production is undertaken by small-scale family farms, especially in Malaysia making it both poverty-reducing and economically progressing. 

Myth #3: Palm Oil is Unhealthy
Palm Oil is a cholesterol-free and trans-fat-free vegetable oil with a composition of 50% saturated and 50% unsaturated fatty acids. It is a naturally reddish-orange oil that also contains high beta-carotene content, a natural dietary supply of vitamin A and E that help prevent chronic diseases and supports brain health.

Myth #4: Palm Oil engages Child Labour
Palm Oil is produced in a responsible manner that respects social norms ensuring a multi-pronged push via labour laws and effective implementation. Also with the farm-to-fork approach, each step of the cycle is mapped ensuring the policies are followed to make a lasting social update. 

Myth #5: Palm Oil is only used in Food
Palm Oil is more versatile than any edible oil. It is used in almost all industries including personal care and cosmetics, biofuel and energy, pharmaceutical, industrial and many more. Almost all everyday products like food items, cosmetics, candles, soap, shampoo, detergent, biodiesel, and more than half the products in the supermarket have palm oil as an important ingredient. 

Having said this, it is true that not all Palm Oil production is sustainable and produced organically. However, the attention needs to shift from the blame game to educating people.

A foundation garment like shapewear gives one a confidence boost when it comes to tight-fitting clothes and slinky fabrics. It not only helps smooth and contour the silhouette but also goes a step further to accentuate the shape. However, choosing shapewear that's perfect for your body type and lifestyle can be tricky, especially with the numerous styles currently available.


So here are the talking points which will help you make sense of this closeted clothing type:

What is Shapewear and what is it made of?
Shapewear is an undergarment style that helps create a smooth silhouette and sculpt your figure, particularly when wearing figure-hugging outfits. It often referred to as 'Spanx' after one of the most popular brands on the market, although they are sold by countless fashion and lingerie labels.

Shapewear has a reputation for being uncomfortable due to its compressive nature, but luckily, thanks to advancements in fabric technology, things have changed in recent years. One thing that hasn't changed is the role of such undergarments, they are built to make your clothes fit better and improve your confidence, whether you wear them every day or on special occasions.

In the wholesale shapewear world, Shapewear is dominated by two textiles namely elastane (spandex) and polyamide (nylon) that highlight the magical relationship between compression and comfort. Styles with strategically placed seams and intricate panels offer noticeable lifting and shaping, from soft shaping to firm contouring.

Full Bodysuit Lace Trim Front Zip
Bodyshaper
Just as the name implies, full body shapers help sculpt the body contours, including the waist, hips and tummy. These bodysuits may also be extended with a panty up to the middle thigh for a more comprehensive look. While there are body shapers that hug the midsection as a whole, many may find this style too restrictive. The best full-body shaper is one that has a front panel which clearly pulls-in the concerned area.

Bandage Detachable Straps Zip Ultra Body Shaper
Open-Bust Bodysuit
The open-bust bodysuit is not designed with a bra and is ideal for those who choose to pair it with their own intimates, such as bralettes or bras with greater support.

Tummy Training Latex Waist Trimmer
Waist Trainer Corset
A style borrowed from the Victorian era, a corset provides extreme compression in the mid-section to accentuate a slim waist. There are two types of corsets currently very popular, the waist cincher and trainer. 

Lace Hemline Butt Lifter High Waisted
High Waisted Butt Lifter Bottoms
A high waist bottom helps tackle three problem areas... it clinches the waist, tucks the tummy and snags the thighs.

So what kind of shapewear is the most versatile to own?
A full-body shapewear from HexinFashion is the best full-body shaper to opt for, as they are the most hard-working piece of the lot.
