Eating healthy is necessary to keep your body in a good condition and to be fit. However, not everything that has good health benefits for your immune system is good for your teeth. Even though they are made from a tough structure, some foods will help them stay strong, and others will help in deteriorating the enamel faster.






Drink Plenty of Tea

Instead of rinsing your mouth with water, you should start doing it with either green or black tea, which will help to reduce plaque buildup and the growth of some bacteria. But, drinking tea at least once a day is fine as well, because it will not only be good for the body and soul, but for your little choppers as well. However, do not overdo it, because too much of this delicious liquid could start damaging your teeth as well.

Another Reason to Eat Cheese

Almost everybody likes to eat cheese, and it is a good way to ensure that you get plenty of dairy products. Some would even suggest that you eat a certain type of cheese so that you can shield your teeth from bacteria damage. Your mouth will start producing more saliva which will in turn reduce mouth acidity that could not only harm your teeth, but also help some bacteria grow as well. All in all, eating a bit of cheese everyday will do you good for your oral and overall health.

​Stay Clear Of Too Many Lemons

Even though lemon can be used for many purposes to help boost your immunity, it is still a fruit that you will have to take responsibly. Not only lemons, but other citrus fruits can be dangerous for your teeth if you consume too much of them. The acidity in them can cause some serious damage, which if not taken seriously could permanently deteriorate your teeth. Keep exposure to citrus’ to a minimum so that you do not help tooth enamel erosion.

Avoid Candy As much As Possible

Candy can contain a lot of various sugars and chewy bits which could not only harm your teeth but extremely accelerate tooth decay. And, it is best if you can avoid eating them at all, so that you do not have to go and get a tooth pulled out. If you are going to eat candy, be sure not to eat a lot, and to wash your teeth soon afterwards, so that you can minimize the effects of bacteria.

oAn Apple a Day Keeps the Dentist Away

Eating crunchy apples at least once a day can help you clean your teeth and keep them strong. Not only will you introduce a good source of minerals and vitamins to your health, but you will have a natural toothbrush that will reduce the plaque levels in your mouth, and make sure to neutralize bacteria as well. Moreover, Sydney orthodontists suggest that you eat tougher crunchy foods as well, because they will ensure that your teeth stay strong, and that they do not deteriorate any time soon.

​Be sure to brush your teeth at least after every major meal, so that you can ensure they stay strong and healthy. However, pay attention to what type of food you eat, because some foods can be beneficial and some will have more damaging ingredients that could ruin your tooth enamel. In the end, you need to make sure to eat a balanced diet and that you do not overdo it with any type so that you avoid increasing the risk of hurting your teeth.

While one is travelling, it is vital and important to ensure that they feel and are comfortable in the period of travelling. The importance of this is that the individual feels good and great through the journey and after reaching their destiny. It is important to assess the beauty products that a person uses when they are travelling. Some products work well while others are not good when one is travelling. There are things that one also needs or requires to do on their skin or body in preparation for travelling. These tips are easy to apply by any individual travelling.
​
Moisturize and Mist with Mineral Water
Moisturizing of the skin is essential for the individual. In the preparation for a flight or a long driving journey, proper moisturizing of the skin is required on the night before one takes off for the journey. The moisturizing should be done intensely on the skin. There is no need to go for more foundation or even blush. One should consider the use of mineral water to add a little moisturizer.

Forgo Foundation and Blot out the Oily Skin
Foundation should not be used. Instead of this, one should do the skin moisturizing. It is advisable to avoid foundation especially before one starts the journey.  Oily skin is likely to get out of one's control during travelling hours. One should thus carry blotting papers on the journey.

Natural Antibacterial Wipes
It is healthy to use the antibacterial wipes while one is travelling. They are important and essential as they help to eliminate and kill germs on the skin. Antibacterial wipes play a great and critical role in skin protection. When the climate or weather is quite warm, an individual is more likely to sweat while travelling. The antibacterial wipes should thus be used to wipe off the sweat. These wipes are also important in wiping away food particles after an individual has eaten some snacks in the time they are travelling. Ensure that you pack the antibacterial wipes before leaving or starting the journey.

Green Tea and Detox Tea
Before one travels, it is important to ensure that one detoxifies especially in cases where one is taking flight. Some tea can be essential. It is also advisable for one to carry some tea on the journey. It is important to sip tea time to time in the course of the journey as it helps in detoxification. The body thus remains fresh. Detoxification aids in ensuring that body cells continue their tasks in a good environment. Tea, especially green tea, should thus be included in the list while packing for a journey.

Fresh Lemons
It is essential to pack and take some fresh lemons with you as you travel. In the morning especially, they are one of the products that help an individual start a day well. They have a detoxification effect. They make sure that one feels good and fresh as they travel. One can have them washed and cut into pieces. It is also a good trick to squeeze the cleaned lemons in some drinking water. Together with the water the lemons helps in keeping the skin in a healthy state. 

Stay Hydrated
Drinks are essential and important while one is travelling. Water is the best option when choosing drinks. Water is vital and essential for ensuring that the body remains hydrated as one is travelling. Carrying enough water is, therefore, critical when travelling. The water is essential for the skin too. Avoid dry skin patches by the intake or drinking of sufficient water on the journey.

Eat Right
Eating and feeding right is also a beauty tip. What one eats may affect how they look and how they feel when they are travelling. It is important and advisable to include salad, more vegetables and water in the diet. Before one travels, one should eat considerable amounts of veggies.

To fashion or not to fashion, that is the question? – was that what Mr. Shakespeare said? Well, not quite but you get me, I know you do. No matter how much we all try to deny it, at the end of the day we’ll all end up gushing over the latest trends or particular pieces of clothing we never fell out of love from. And there is nothing wrong with that.

While we are used to having the fashion moguls breathe behind our necks, telling us what to do, what to wear, what bag to buy, what shoes to love, the fashion industry is so broad and so incredibly optional that even if you are not following fashion trends, you end up following them. There is something for everyone, and we love it.
​
A wonderful thing is that most fashion designers are slowly but surely getting environmentally conscious, trying to include sustainable fashion in their collections and make the world more aware of how important it is to save our planet Earth. 

Naturally, not everybody is on board with this mission nor are they looking forward to eventually having to drop all their already set ways just to stay in favor with their environmentally-customers but it’s the price everyone’s got to pay. 

​If you are not sure why you should be the one to hop onboard with the sustainable fashion, here are some more than good reasons:

​The Earth appreciates it

“The fashion industry leaves behind a huge environmental footprint, from the pesticides used in growing cotton and the leached chemicals from the toxic dyes that went into that perfect shade of teal, to the landfill impact of clothes that wear out and the energy required to produce each piece”, explained knowledgeable environmentalists when asked about the impact of fashion on the planet. For this reason it’s become essential for everyone to think before they create, and buy! 

Unfortunately, it’s impossible to absolutely pick out fabrics that will be 100% organic and sustainable but making an effort and starting small like opting for fabrics made of hemp or bamboo can trim the amount of carbon given off and chemicals brought onto this planet.

It’s longer-lasting

​Organic clothes aren’t only the least toxic way to go but they are also of such good quality that you’ll be able to wear it for a few seasons. If you choose a cut that fits your shape perfectly, a chic silhouette and opt for a classic timeless shape and color you will be able to flaunt what you’ve chosen for years to come. 

On top of that, stocking up on unnecessary fashions (even if they were made without pesticides) is absolutely unnecessary and by not doing it you are actively reducing waste and cutting back on your consumerism! Don’t be lazy and do some browsing online and ultimately buy online some amazing dresses made out of sustainable, organic fabrics. You’d be surprised what you’ll find!

It’s better for both people and animals

When you see that a particular piece of clothes is labeled Fair Trade Act it means it was not only sweatshop free but that it was produced under safe working conditions and the person who made it earned a fair wage!  As for the animals… well, that one is pretty clear – no animal ever gave their skin for those boots or (fur)coat. That’s pretty amazing, right?

Inika are an Australian certified organic and cruelty free cosmetics brand.  Their original lipstick was actually the very first organic lipstick I purchased for myself when I changed over to using chemical free beauty products.

Winners of over 35 cosmetics awards, the company started in 2006 and their range have become world renowned for out-standing performance.    They have one of the highest safety ratings in the world and contain absolutly no chemicals.

Made according to strict European Union directives. The products  do not contain petrochemicals, parabens, artificial fragrances or PEGS. 

Researchers have  detected nine toxic heavy metals including lead, aluminium, cadmium, manganese and chromium contained in lipsticks from many well known mainstream brands.   This is why I stopped wearing cosmetics which are not natural a long time ago.   

Recently Inika have released their vegan lipsticks with a new formula and I’ve been lucky enough to get my hands on one.

The colour I’ve been wearing is Cherry Blossom.   It lives up to it’s name and looks and even tastes amazing.

The lipstick is actually infused with essential oils, as soon as I placed some on my lips it tasted like a creamy fruity treat.

I wear lipstick every day, even when I’m not going to work.  I love how a bit of colour lifts me up and when using organic lipsticks  my lips are kept soft and healthy.   

I found that this lipstick lasted a long time, it was very moisturising.  The texture is creamy and the colour stayed on my lips after drinking and eating, with a touch up at lunch time.  
I didn’t end up with that lipstick trail around the edges of my lips and it didn’t go all flaky.

For an organic lipstick, the staying power is impressive.   A lot of those non-natural ‘long wearing’ lipsticks last a long time because they contain dangerous chemicals and they are also very drying.  

The colour is natural and pretty, it suited my complexion, as having pale skin I have to be careful I don’t look too washed out, so I tend to go for warmer colours like this.   It has a matte texture with a tiny bit of shimmer. It glides on easily, which I think is an improvement with the new formula, it seems to feel more silky. 

It contains certified organic avocado and jojoba seed oils, shea butter and argan oils.

I like the stylish black packaging, which is made from  sustainable materials.

There are 8 colours to choose from ranging from natural browns to pink and red, something to suit all skin tones.

The lipsticks also come with matching lip liners.  I always use a lip liner with lipstick as I think it defines the lips and looks very classy.
