Even if I don't want it to be fall yet, I do love every single warm shade of colour in a palette of this season. It warms up every complexion and has its mystery and beauty to it. From this selection I do love Diane von Furstenberg and Givenchy the most! Which ones you prefer and would actually wear?

It is an old therapy process that is cheap, simple and extremely harmless yet it is considered as one of the most powerful therapies you can do yourself. This method comes from India where in Ancient times people used this Ajurvedic treatment with using sesame oil to cure and prevent teeth and mouth problems.

The modern version of oil pulling was established by Ukrainian Physician when he tried swishing oil back and forward in his mouth and apparently cured his chronic blood disease. The method is called like that because oil is basically pulling any bacteria, toxins and funguses out of your mouth and with that it is improving overall health.

The process itself is very simple. First thing in the morning before having any food or drink you pour one tablespoon of any cold pressed oil you prefer (sesame and sunflower oil are claimed to be the best) into your mouth. Then you start swishing this oil in your mouth and through your teeth as you would do with mouthwash but you don't swallow it by any means. 

You have to do it around 10-20 minutes depending the time you can tolerate as first it may be unpleasant to put oil in your mouth. 

Soon after swishing you will notice that oil get really watery and white. When you have finished with it you will spit it out, because it is now toxic as it pulled out all the bacteria in your mouth. Then rinse your mouth with water (or salt water to get everything nasty out of your mouth) and brush your teeth.

This is the whole process. Easy, simple and available to anyone. You can do it while preparing your breakfast or getting ready etc. I didn't have any disgust at doing it, but I have heard that some people absolutely hate putting oil into their mouth, but later do get used to it. Word of advice, do it as you go and don't think about the process while doing it.

If thought of holding and swishing oil in your mouth puts you off or makes you sick I suggest finding the oil that suits you. Different oils have different textures, smells, tastes and benefits. Coconut oil for example smells and tastes good and is favourite of quite many oil pullers. My favourite is macadamia nut oil that is fairly tasteless and pleasant for me.

Besides that there are so many stories about oil pulling success and miraculous healing with it. 

Some of most common things oil pulling has helped with are headaches, bronchitis, lund and liver conditions, thrombosis, blood diseases, arthritis, paralysis, eczema, gastric ulcers, heart and kidney aliments, intestinal disorders, encephalitis, nervous conditions, female disorders, acne, different skin conditions, weight lost etc. 

Have you tried this method? If it caught your interest I suggest to read a bit more about it and decide whether you would like to try or not. But I can't see the reason why you wouldn't. There is so much websites, literature and forums on oil pulling, just search for it. You can start by checking out this website in here.

Happy pulling!

It has calendula, nettle, red clover, organic rosehips, rose petals, chamomile and lemon verbana in it.

If you didn't know already, matcha tea is recognized for its detoxifying properties and highest antioxidants level because after straining the tea it still has very fine tea particles in it and it all goes into your body. You can see that this tea isn't as clear as regular green teas can be. Like most of the pure green teas, this tea has caffeine in it and therefore will make wonderful morning drink when you need to get yourself going. It doesn't taste bitter, but very pleasant and almost little bit sweet.

So are you a tea drinker? If not, maybe you should as organic teas can be extremely beneficial for your body, mind, skin, mood and system in general. They cleanse you, comfort you, offer you amazing taste experience plus all that can show on your appearance and state of mind.

The key in spring 2013 will probably be no or very little mascara with bright red lip (red in every shade of red) or bright eyes with bright liner and muted lip. Or not! As it seems that bright eye with bright lip is also very wearable if you dare to do this. I really like the idea of nude eye liner on upper lid! What is your favourite?
