Hormones, particularly testosterone, play a role in the body's oil production and when too much is produced it clogs skin pores and increases the chance of an acne break-out. Consult your family doctor or dermatologist to determine the best treatment for your skin.  Women who go on birth control pills often solve their acne problems.  Though unproven, there is a theory that milk, which contains components related to testosterone, can lead to acne. A good way to keep excess oil from clogging your pores is to wash it away. Washing also gets rid of dirt and bacteria, which can contribute to acne too. Wash twice daily, as well as after excessive sweating (such as if you've been working out). However, don't overdo it, because too much washing will trigger an over-production of oil to combat dry skin. Always use a moisturizer after cleaning and exfoliating your skin. Creams and lotions containing benzoyl peroxide kill bacteria that cause acne. It may be very tempting to pick or squeeze your pimples in efforts to get rid of them quicker, but you're likely to make your face more inflamed, plus you risk permanently scarring your skin or causing infection. Let you dermatologist or experienced esthetician deal with your pimples, as they are the experts. If you have chronic and stubborn acne, your dermatologist may offer you a prescription antibiotic lotion such as clindamycin or erythromycin (or maybe oral antibiotics). Tretinoin (Retin-D) is a medication that helps prevent skin pores from getting clogged, whereas isotretinoin reduces the amount of oil produced.  The best medical treatment for acne is often a combination of topical and oral medicines. Always follow your doctor's directions when taking prescribed medications. Numerous natural herbal remedies exist that may help to combat severe acne such as green tea (anti-inflammatory and astringent), lavender oil, chamomile, tea tree oil (antiseptic), or apple cider vinegar.  Make a honey and oat face mask. Honey is a good antiseptic, whereas oatmeal cleanses, moisturizes, soothes irritation and relieves itchiness. Make a bentonite clay mask, which unclogs pores and relieves itchiness.

summary: Keep tabs on your hormones. Keep your skin clean. Try not to pick at your pimples. Consider a prescription medication. Use a natural remedy on your acne.

Fenugreek tea is made similarly to the way you’d make any other tea. To start, all you need is a teaspoon of raw seeds in your pot. Boil the water as you normally do. Whether you use a kettle or have to microwave a cup of water is up to you, but water never gets in the way of tea. When you’ve got the water piping hot, pour it into the teapot. Time flies and after all that hard work you did, it’s time for a well-deserved break. After about three minutes, the water will have already begun taking on the flavor of the seeds. However, let the seeds continue to steep for five to ten minutes. The tea you’ll get will be similar to black tea with a nutty flavor, which is way better than drinking fenugreek soaking water. The tea can be altered however you wish. Some tea-drinkers like adding milk or honey. Others like brewing tea with both seeds and tea leaves. It may be obvious, but don’t swallow the nuts while you’re trying to sip your tea. Hold a mesh strainer over your teacup and filter the water through it. These tea strainers shouldn’t be hard to find, so look wherever kitchen or tea supplies are sold. Maybe you like the tea so much you crave a second cup. Maybe you swallow it for the health benefits. Luckily for you, you can make yourself more tea no matter what. Add the seeds back into a second batch of hot water and go wild.

summary: Place a teaspoon of seeds in a teapot. Pour boiling water over the seeds. Let the tea steep for five minutes. Strain out the nuts. Reuse the seeds for a second cup of tea.


Summarize the following:
The hook is the chorus of your song. Some beginning songwriters find it easier to write the hook first, then compose the rest of the lyrics. Familiarize yourself with the beat and melody of the song, then try to write the chorus to fit that beat and melody.  Think of the hook as the thesis to your love song and try to sum up how you feel about your crush in a single statement. Brainstorm some ideas, then try to write the chorus based off those. You may write down a few keywords that come to mind when you think about your crush, such as “smart”, “strong”, “hot”, “brave”, or “sensual.” The lyrics for the chorus can be very simple like “Hit me baby one more time” or “Come on ride the train. Ride it!” You may combine a few keywords to create the chorus, “She’s smart, strong, and hot”, or “He’s brave, sensual, and strong.” Typically, the title of the song should also appear in the chorus. For example, if you use the chorus, “She’s smart, strong, and hot”, the song may be called “Smart, Strong, and Hot.” Part of what makes a good chorus is setting up and paying off a rhyme. There are many ways to set up the rhyming structure of your chorus and there’s no right or wrong way to go about doing it. Your options for the rhyming structure are:  Repeat the same line at least three times. If you choose to do this, make sure the line is fun to say or sing. For example, you may repeat the line, “I think you’re great” three times. When writing a four line chorus, rhyme the first line to the third line and the second line to the fourth line. For example, you may have the lines: “I think you’re great/We would be so good together/You’re the perfect mate/I think we could be forever.” Make the first and third lines the same and make the second and fourth lines the same. For example, you may have the lines: “I think you’re great/We would be so good together/You’re the perfect mate/I think we could be something special.” Make the first three lines the same, then diverge from the pattern for the fourth line. For example, you may have the lines: “I think you’re great/The perfect mate/I can’t wait/For us to be together.” Make all four lines completely different. For example, you may have the lines: “I think you’re great/We would be so good together/You’re my ideal/I want to date you.” There are many different places a chorus can go within the confines of a song. Most people choose to alternate verses and choruses, but there is no hard and fast rule on this.  Some songs repeat the chorus of the song over and over to help signify that the song is ending. If you choose to add a bridge, you’ll want to position an additional chorus after the bridge. Your chorus will continue to reappear throughout the course of the song, so it’s important that the chorus be catchy enough that your crush will want to listen to it over and over again.  Infuse the chorus with emotion to help show your crush how you really feel. You may talk about your feelings and emotions as well as the qualities that you appreciate in your crush. Another option is to write a chorus that sounds completely different from the rest of the verses. Try mixing up the rhythm or chord projections, changing keys or applying shifts in volume. If you know how, you can also add harmonies or instruments to enhance the chorus.
summary: Start with a hook. Determine the rhyming structure. Put the choruses in order. Make the chorus memorable.
