Only Use This Kind of Oatmeal for Sunburn. Stupid Tip of the Day:
“Beach Trainers” by Simon Howden FreeDigitalPhotos.net
Okay, so maybe ground, steel-cut, organic oatmeal’s are more effective on sunburn, but all you have is instant. Will it work to relieve sunburn pain?
The answer is yes, it can. I recommend mixing it with rubbing alcohol, to make a paste. Apply the paste on the areas needing treatment. IMPORTANT: Discard any unused portion immediately. (it is not for ingesting)
Leave paste on area for 10 minutes. Then, rinse off with luke-warm water. This should really help in pulling out the fire of sunburn.

Can’t Get Tree Sap Off Windshield, Try This. Tips in Action:
“Outdoor Blue Car Wash With Yellow Sponge” by samuiblue FreeDigitalPhotos.net
Sap is falling from the trees and landing on your car. This sticky mess, is quite a challenge to get off the car and your windows. Sap can even cause a blind spot or just be down right irritating when driving. You’ve used window cleaner, only to leave behind a streaking stickiness. It’s aggravating, right?
Here’s a simple tip to remove that grime. Get brake fluid. Apply some brake fluid to a clean cloth and dab on to each sapped area. Let it set for a few seconds and then rub out the sap. It will break down the sticky.
Wash windows as usual, to remove the brake fluid. Repeat process as necessary.

How to Relieve Pressure from a Painful Welt-like Pimple.
Problem:
When I get nervous about something coming up, like finals, I get a pimple. But, it’s the almost like a welt. It’s so embarrassing and annoying! I’ve used creams and face washes, but it still happens! Is there a quick fix for this, because not only does it look bad, it kinda hurts too. C, 18
Tip from Tia:
I understand, it’s not just the look of it, it has pressure behind it. You are not alone, this actually happens to a lot of people when they get nervous or their systems change.
It’s a quick buildup of oil and histamine, in a small pore that is closed for numerous reasons. That’s where the pressure comes in. There is no escape for the oil as it builds and the pore expands beyond its normal capacity and this causes pain.
Keeping your skin clean and exfoliated is important. The sooner
you start taking care of your skin the longer it will stay fresh and healthy.
So that’s a great start. Good news is, clean is not the culprit of this issue, the nervous system is. Trying to stay stress-free will help reduce these breakouts.
When one happens, here’s a quick tip for some relief on the situation.
I recommend doing this process at night before bed.
Don’t squeeze or pick at it; that will just make it throb more. First take an anti-histamine if you can; anti-histamines can cause drowsiness, so be sure to follow directions on medication label and by your doctor.
Next, grab the toothpaste. Recommended is the white paste kind; it is more effective than the gel. Dab a little on your finger, and apply to the welt with a small amount of pressure. You should feel a slight burn or tingle. This is a good sign that the toothpaste has made it into the pore.
Now, leave it on there to do it’s work for about 20 minutes. Toothpaste is a drying agent, this helps drying out the oils
in the pores naturally. You may even notice the paste will look runny by the time you rinse it off with warm water and blot dry.
After you have rinsed your skin, grab a couple ice cubes, wrap it in a towel and hold on the blemish for about 10 minutes. This will calm the skin, which maybe red, because white blood cells rush to the aid of your skin, to fight off any bacteria the oil has built up.
By morning, the welt should be diminished and the pressure should be less. Apply a small amount of over the counter hydrocortizone on area before applying makeup.
Repeat the process the next night if necessary. A side note, rinse off immediately if your skin starts to really feel a burn. Flush your skin with cool water until you feel relief. If the burning continues, contact a physician, you may have a more serious condition.

Everyone complains that dinner can be the toughest meal to fix. After a long day, the last thing most people want to do is spend 2 hours preparing and cooking meals.
It doesn’t have to be that hard to get proper nutrition in a quick amount of time. Knowing how to make “homemade” cooked meals will beat out taste you would get from drive thru’s and boxes almost every time.
An easy, healthy meal can be put together with pasta, a bag of frozen veggies and some cheese or sauce. Don’t forget the flavor. Spice it up to get it good. Healthy things can taste amazing, if you use your spice cabinet.
