REVIEW: Colorbar (Precision) Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner

0 comments
We beauty bloggers are known (and sometimes expected) to keep trying out new products that keep getting launched in the market, but like everyone else we also have a selected few products that are our favorites and we keep going back to them :) Isn't it? Well for me Colorbar Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner in Black is one of them. I am on my fourth "bottle" and well I am yet to come across an eye liner that competes with it terms of price, pigmentation, staying power and waterproof-ness.

This eye liner has a decent pigmentation and though it may not be the "jettest" of black but it sure is black enough for me. The feature that makes it a champion for me is that it is really waterproof without even flaking... Another super awesome feature of this eye liner is that it stays out on my lids without rubbing/transferring even though my lids are super oily. Lakme intense artist transfers and even duraline mixed eye shadows don't hold up on my oily lids. But this Colorbar genius is with me through thick and thin or should I say through oil and water :)

It had a soft felt tip which makes it super easy to apply on the lids. It especially is helpful when doing a winged liner look :) And you guys know how much I love it don't you :)

The only downside of this product that I can think of is that it isn't waterline safe and well it does cause a bit of irritation if it gets into the eye.

Images of the Product:

If you are looking for a practical, easy to apply, waterproof liquid liner then you must consider this. It will surely not let you down :) Just that it is not waterline safe.

Some Health Problems Due to Unhealthy Teeth

0 comments
Condition of the teeth can be a barometer of health. Research has been done, and continue to be developed, about the relationship between dental and overall health. The results of these studies spawned a fact that people who have healthy teeth tend to have disease-resistant body. For healthy teeth reduce your risk of some diseases. Some health problems due to unhealthy teeth. Before all too late, it's time to give attention to the dental organ.

a. Several studies have been widely described that inflammation and bacteria that resides in the mouth and gums can spread to the blood vessels. Well, the invasion of oral bacteria will cause blood vessels to harden. Hardening of the arteries that occurs will boost your risk of heart attack. Meanwhile, the fat contained in the blood vessels can rupture flow to the brain, and trigger a stroke.

Not enough horrible facts above, this addition to the British Medical Journal: the new study that analyzed 11,000 people show up, they are lazy to brush my teeth have an increased risk of heart disease 70 percent greater than those who brush twice a day. So, your heart to care by caring for your teeth properly.

b. Doctors have long known that people with type 2 diabetes at high risk of periodontal disease (gum). Apparently, this could also apply vice versa. So you can prevent diabetes by maintaining oral health. In other words, prevent gum disease also lowers your risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

A recent study from the Mailman School of Public Health, Columbia University, USA, against 9296 non-diabetic respondents aged 20 years shows, those with periodontal disease have twice the risk of type 2 diabetes disease than those without gum disease. Although more research is needed, but his theory of a serious infection of the mouth can spread to the body and disrupt the body's ability to process insulin.

c. Maintain hygiene and oral health can also help keep the lungs healthy. Recent studies in the Journal of Periodontology, reveals the fact that patients suffering from respiratory illnesses such as pneumonia, acute bronchitis, upper respiratory tract infection, or COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) appeared to have a worse periodontal health. The reason for this lies in the bacteria that caused by periodontal disease, are formed in the upper throat. From there the bacteria can be easily inhaled into the lower respiratory tract and can inhibit breathing. Not close the possibility of developing a problem more serious lung disease.

d. It seems like science continues to discover the relationship between oral health and overall body health. Recent research from the Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden, found an association between gum disease and breast cancer. The findings revealed that women who have gum disease and who had been on his teeth, 11 times more likely to develop breast cancer. This is the first study that looked at the relationship between dental health and breast. So far the research will be conducted to confirm the results.

e. If you are pregnant or planning a pregnancy, it is important for you to pay attention to oral health. Oral hygiene problems should not be ignored by pregnant women, because according to the study of the American Academy of Periodontists, 50 percent of pregnant women experience gingivitis disease, a condition that makes the gums are inflamed, bleeding, swelling, or tenderness. If this is left unchecked can lead to periodontal disease, and certainly not the ideal conditions for pregnant women. The reason, a serious infection could create problems later on in the delivery room.

Currently being carried out further studies on the direct relationship between bacterial infection in the mouth with premature birth, low birth rate, and preeclampsia. To be safe, take care of themselves during pregnancy diligent with brushing, flossing, and do not forget to visit your dentist regularly. Do not underestimate any complaints that arise on your teeth and mouth.
