Gigi Hadid & Other Celebs Stand With Palestine

In the last several weeks, the violence issue of Sheikh Jarrah (a neighbourhood in East Jerusalem) has been surfacing all over the internet. What is going on?Based on reports, the #SaveSheikhJarrah is a product of Palestinian families being forced to evict their homes, resulting in violence and killing. 6 families were forced to the streets from their homes, under what the prime minister noted as a 'real-estate dispute'. However, political leaders from around the world, as well as activists, have stated the move to be yet another attempt to displace Palestinians. Since the rise in brutality, protestors have put their lives on the frontlines to fight against the Israeli government, which then resulted in police violence and civilian-killing by air strikes. As people worldwide fight against the inhumanity toward Palestinians, celebs like Gigi Hadid, Bella Hadid, The Weeknd, Dua Lipa and many more have also stepped up to spread awareness on the issue.

Anwar Ibrahim Says We Should Stop Depending On The US Dollar, Plans To Create Asian Monetary Fund With China

In light of the world's rising discontent with the US dollar's hegemony, China is open to discussions with Malaysia about establishing an Asian Monetary Fund, according to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.Anwar claimed he recommended the creation of the fund during the Boao meeting in Hainan last week, emphasising the need to lessen dependency on the US dollar or the IMF.
  There is no reason for Malaysia to continue depending on the dollar, he added. According to Anwar, who also serves as Malaysia's finance minister, the central bank is already trying to make it possible for the two countries to conduct trade negotiations using the ringgit and yuan.
  Anwar said on Tuesday that in the 1990s, during his first term as finance minister, he first suggested creating the Asian Monetary Fund. He stated that because the US currency was still regarded as strong, his concept at the time didn't catch on.What do you think of this? Leave your thought below.Source: theedgemarkets.com

Differences Between Hair Conditioner and Hair Mask

There are lots of hair care products available in the market such as hair shampoo, hair conditioner, hair mask, hair oil, hair serum and so on. Among these hair care products, it's easy to get confused between the hair conditioner and a hair mask, as their instruction of use stated in the labels is similar. Let's have a look at the differences between the hair conditioner and hair mask!How do they work?[Hair conditioner] Adsorb to the hair cuticle (the outer layer of the hair) and form a coating that could alter the texture and appearance of the hair. It is used to ensure the hair is easy to manage afterwards.[Hair mask] Penetrate the inner layer of the hair to moisture, nourish and repair the damaged hair. When to use?[Hair conditioner]It is recommended to use the hair conditioner daily since it provides temporary effects.[Hair mask] It is recommended to use the hair mask once or twice per week as the protective effect provided could last for a long time.
  Where to use?[Hair conditioner]Apply to the hair ends and avoid hair scalp.[Hair mask] Apply to the hair ends and can be up to the hair scalp for some hair masks.
  How to use?[Hair conditioner] Apply to the washed hair and wait for a few minutes. Then, rinse the hair with warm water.[Hair mask] Apply to the washed hair and wait for 10-20 minutes (for conventional hair masks). Covering the hair with a warm towel could produce a better effect. Then, rinse the hair with warm water.
  If you want to use them together, remember to apply the hair mask first, followed by the hair conditioner for the optimum effect.Cover Photo Sources: Pinterest, The Body Shop


Dalai Lama Sparks Controversy Again As He Kisses Young Boy & Asks Him To Suck His Tongue

A video recently went viral on Twitter about the Dalai Lama, and netizens have been calling him out for paedophilia. Based on reports and the footage, the Dalai Lama greeted a young boy on stage, and after giving him a hug, he held his chin and gave him a kiss on the lips. It then gets worse, when he sticks out his tongue and asks the boy to suck on it.
  The Dalai Lama has since apologized for what went down. "His Holiness often teases people he meets in an innocent and playful way, even in public and before cameras", the statement said. Some of his supporters have come out to say that it's part of Tibetan culture and tradition, while vast others deem it abuse in every sense. Sticking out ones tongue is a sign of respect or agreement and was often used as a greeting in traditional Tibetan culture, according to the Institute of East Asian Studies at the University of California, Berkeley. Besides this, the Dalai Lama has also been in multiple controversies in the past, from saying his successor should be a woman who is 'more attractive' to suggesting that Europe should only be kept to the Europeans and not be home to African refugees.

"My Only Wish Is To Meet Him" M'sian Mother Gives Up Child For Adoption, Seeks Reunion After 14 Years

A Malaysian mother, under immense life pressures, made the heart-wrenching decision to give her firstborn up for adoption 14 years ago.Recently, she reached out through the media in search of the son she entrusted to another family. She emphasized that she would never force her child to return to his biological family but expressed her earnest wish to meet him.
According to reports, the mother, Noor Hidayu, was compelled by life pressures to give her newborn son, Mohamad Daniel Hazmi, up for adoption just 12 days after his birth. Unfortunately, all contact was lost thereafter.Noor Hidayu, 35, revealed that her son was born on August 22, 2009, and she has never stopped loving and longing for him despite their separation for many years. It is known that the adoption process was handled by a third party named Hajah Sahrilab, residing in Cheras, but communication ceased afterwards, leaving Noor Hidayu with no information about the adoptive family. She mentioned that she had written her contact number on a piece of paper, which she then placed in a plastic bag and tucked into the child's clothes."I have never changed my phone number since then," Noor Hidayu said. She shared that she prays every day for a reunion with her biological son, whom she and her husband hope to meet before their passing. She pleaded with anyone who has information about her son or the adoptive family to assist her in finding him."I implore the adoptive family's kindness to help me meet my eldest son. I miss him dearly and long to see him. I want him to know how much I love him," Noor Hidayu expressed. She understands that the adoptive family has cared for him for 14 years, so she merely desires the opportunity for them to meet."He is more comfortable with his adoptive family, so it would be sufficient for us to meet. That would mean the world to me," she said. Some netizens believe that since the child was given up for adoption, he should be left undisturbed in his current life."You should let it go. Seeing him again may disrupt the entire family. At least you were responsible enough not to abandon him by the roadside.""Once you give a child away, you shouldn't disrupt their life anymore.""Respecting his privacy is the best form of love and blessing.""Unless the child is aware of the truth and wants to find his biological mother.""You gave up the child in the first place, now you want him back. Have you considered the child's feelings?"If you have any information to help reunite this mother with her son, please contact Noor Hidayu at 016-448 4940.


If You Don't Want to Move in and Move out the Houseplants for Sun Exposure.Choose those Plants That May Tolerate Dark Conditions!

If you want to place some plants at home but the space is not near to any source of sunlight. Then, you may choose to place full shade plants. Those plants still can grow very well under full shade conditions unlike the other semi shade indoor plants or outdoor plants, they must move outdoors expose to direct or indirect sunlight occasionally to continue growing. So, if certain spaces do not receive bright indirect sunlight, we should choose to place full shade plants to save the trouble of moving in and out of the houseplants for exposure to sunlight!SyngoniumMay tolerate 75%-90% of shade, the growing speed under the shade will be greatly reduced compared to the Syngonium place under brighter places. Syngonium comprises many different types of varieties with different leaves colour and leaves shape. For example, syngonium golden allusion, syngonium pink, syngonium Maria allusion, syngonium Wendlandii etc. We may make use of different varieties of syngonium to break the monotony of using the same type of plant as home decoration. Water requirement of syngonium is intermediate, weekly need to watering twice to thrice times for best growth.
  SansevieriaSansevieria is a highly adaptable plant that may tolerate full shade to full sunlight growing conditions. However, if you want to move the plant from outdoor to indoor may let the plant acclimatise first. You may move to the car porch first for a few days before moving indoors. Sansevieria like syngonium too comprises many varieties with different shapes and leaves colours. Like sansevieria trifasciata leaves are longer in green colour or with yellow margin. Sansevieria moonshine its leaves in light green colour and Sansevieria silver hahnii is grown like a pagoda layer by layer and shorter. If you are the lazy type of plant lover you may choose Sansevieria as the indoor plant decoration. That is because it is a highly tolerant drought plant. You may water once a week only or longer times to keep the sansevieria survive. Using a single type of indoor plants is good for arranging watering schedules. Because different types of plants require different levels of water, you have to remember what time should give what plants water. Using a single type of plant or similar requirement plant will make the maintenance jobs more simple.

  MonsteraMonstera delicious, Monstera adansonii or Monstera oblique etc may survive under full shade condition. However, monstera cannot tolerate over water or poor water drainage soil. Its root will rot and its eaves become yellowing.Monstera love hot and high humid growing environments. Therefore, a humidifier used in house may decrease the watering frequency. Monstera is climbing plants, we may keep pruning to make it grow more branches to look bushy or prepare a coco coir post and let its vine be supported by the post.
  Pothos/Scindapsus pictusScindapsus pictus or called as satin pothos could tolerate higher degree of shade compared to other pothos plant species like pothos marble queen, N'Joy, pothos variegated etc. Scindapsus pictus as indoor plants is a slow growing plant. It could be placed indoors for a long period without changing to a bigger pot frequently and save a lot of maintenance jobs. However, under full shade conditions the leaves' colour may not be as brilliant as when exposed to bright but indirect sunlight. The silver part of the leaves will decrease under full shade conditions.

  After we know which plant could tolerate dark conditions, then we will not choose unsuitable plants which need more sun exposure to place in the wrong place. We also save the jobs to move in and move out our indoor plant weekly to make the indoor plants may continuously survive in an indoor environment.

But we may use some natural fungicides which could be found in our home kitchen to curing the fungi affection of plants! For example, using carbon bicarbonate (baking soda) mixed with water in 1:200 ratio and spray to the surface of the plants to stop the spreading of the fungus! We may buy some organic fungicide like copper oxide if the baking soda is not effective in controlling the fungus spreading! Using organic copper oxide and baking soda are more eco-friendly compared to the other chemical fungicides!
  Natural or Synthetic Weeds MatWe may using wood shred, wood barks, small granules may be used for potted plants as natural mulching to control the weeds. Besides that, if the area is wide and it is impractical to use natural sources as mulching!  We may direct using weeds control mat to cover the land where we did not plant anything. Weedicides are carcinogenic, the toxin leaching to the soil and drain may cause pollution of water, soil sources and enter our food chain eventually ! Moreover if we spray the weedicides excessively, we may cause the land unable to plant anything until the residues of  weedicides have leached to lower levels of the soil.
    Therefore, we should encourage all the plant lovers using eco-friendly methods to maintain their plants' health. Gardening should be an eco-friendly activity that is good for the environment and good for health also. We should try our best not to harm the earth while maintaining the health of our plants. And destroy the true meaning for gardening and bring bad effects to the environment and humans!

Fasting is an auspicious practice that has to be carried out appropriately.Recent religious officials in Bachok, caught a woman in the act of selling food and beverages to Muslim customers of hers who aren't fasting.They found that the woman had more than 20 packages of rice with chicken hidden inside a washing machine in a toilet. A bucket of marinated chicken was found next to the machine along with several packets of teh o ais in the bedroom.It seems that her customers would get in touch with her whenever they wanted to place an order, and she would pack them accordingly.She was given a warning after being caught and would be sent for counselling.Her clients fled after hearing about the raid, thus there were no arrests made.

Yin to the Yang | 7 signs that you‘ve found your BFF |

"There's nothing like a really loyal, dependable, good friend. Nothing." - Jennifer AnnistonLife is difficult at times but it doesn't mean that we have to walk through it alone. Friends - they keep us sane, entertain and sometimes fed (Friends who bring you out for food - brownie points!!!). We all need a friend to rely on, even the toughest heart would agree. Here's 7 signs (not exhaustive!) that you've found your friend for life:1. HOLD YOU ACCOUNTABLEThis basically means being answerable for the choices and decisions that you make. Friends that are not shy to critique you when you've done wrong, who constantly remind you of your values and principles. A friendship of accountability comes from a place where you lower your walls, stow away your pride and willingly accept your flaws when your friend called you out. 2. EFFORTFriend who actually make an effort to meet up/text/communicate with you are a keeper! Albeit difficult to hold social gatherings for now, having friends who still check up on you every few days or so is a blessing. Regardless the conversation may be short, it is something which you should treasure because it means you're always at the back of their minds.
  3. CELEBRATE YOUR SUCCESSESBy celebrating, it could be as simple as saying "Good job!!". Nothing brings more joy than when your friend rejoices with you for every successes you achieved. It could be something trivial like assembling an IKEA furniture on your own (this deserves a celebration btw I KID you not) to getting a pay raise. Doesn't matter what it is, your friend's simply happy for you.4. RAIN/SHINEBe it stormy days or sunshine, s/he's present. The friend who's willing to listen whenever you're feeling down, the friend who shares your joy when all's well. To have a friend to weather through with you, be it thick or thin - keep them near your heart because being present shows that s/he care. After all, friendships blossom under care, don't they?
  5. INTO THE DETAILSFriends that know your likings, dislikes, habits (including the weird ones), special dates such as birthdays etc. 'Let's go to your favourite noodle bar for dinner" or "I know you hate coriander" -  Simple gestures like that  means a lot as they really do pay attention to what you've mentioned before. Having someone other than your family member to remember such details are definitely worth spending time with.
  6. COMFORTABLEYou confide in h/she almost every single happening (TMI ALERT). This is a sign that you're extremely comfortable with that person. When you're being comfortable, you'll bound to share every detail even the dullest moment seems like a fair piece of gourmet to you. 7. AMAZING TIME TOGETHERLast but not least, any time spent with BFF is quality time. It can be where you both hangout at each other's place, eating pizza from a box with the crumbles all strewn over the floor or people watching from a cafe. On the outset, these moments may seem boring to the others but both of you had fun.
  That said, if your friends possess any of the above said, know that you are very lucky and very loved!


M'sian Coldplay Fan Flaunts Concert Ticket on Carousell, Brags 'I Got It, You Don't!'"

Now that's a real flex...A smug Coldplay fan caused quite a stir on Carousell today by showing off their tickets for the band's upcoming concert in Kuala Lumpur. The fan, who had managed to secure four CAT 2 tickets, posted a photo of the tickets on the popular online marketplace along with a caption that read: "Not for sale. For show only. I got the tickets, you don't!"found this in carousell i hope this persons pillow is never cold at night!!!#COLDPLAYinKL pic.twitter.com/sPqvwyNjp3— eli (@elizaachaii) May 16, 2023 This post quickly went viral and sparked jealoust among Malaysian Coldplay fans who had been eagerly waiting for the opportunity to attend the band's concert. Many of them had tried and failed to secure tickets during the early access pre-sale hosted by Live Nation, leaving them feeling disappointed and frustrated.Not everyone can be as lucky, and whoever is behind this Carousell post earns the bragging rights after emerging in victory amidst the queuing war of the vicious Coldplay ticket purchase chaos. As the excitement continues to build ahead of the concert, fans will no doubt be keeping a close eye on Carousell and other online marketplaces in the hope of securing tickets of their own. And while there may be some who choose to show off their good fortune, hopefully, they will do so with a little more humility and consideration for those who were less fortunate in the ticket-buying frenzy...tsk. What do you think of this dedicated fan?

Toblerone Chocolate May Lose Its Iconic Swiss Mountain Logo

Six years after a heavily criticized modification to the shape of its chocolate bars, Toblerone is set to make yet another change – this time, it's looking to drop the iconic image of the Matterhorn mountain from its chocolate packaging.Mondelez International Inc., the US parent company that owns the chocolate brand is moving some of Toblerone's production to Slovakia which means the chocolate may not meet Switzerland's legal definition of "Swissness".Swiss law dictates that any food item marketing itself as being "made in Switzerland" must source at least 80% of its raw ingredients from the country. The law also covers the use of Swiss symbols, including those that indicate geographical territory.

HIMYM is Getting a 'How I Met Your Father' with Hilary Duff!

It is beyond a doubt we all live for sitcoms. From classics like 'Friends' to recent favourites like 'Brooklyn Nine-Nine', it is no surprise that people love binging anything and everything, with top tier humor.
  One of the favourites back in the day, was hit series 'How I Met Your Mother'. A story about one Ted Mosby, telling his kids a 9-season long story on how he met their mother. Reminiscing the ups and downs of life, love and everything in between, the comedy series which starred Josh Radnor, Cobie Smulders, Neil Patrick Harris, Alyson Hannigan, and Jason Segel, quickly became a fan favourite.

Your Smartphone Might Help You Detect A Skin Disorder

ICYMI: Apple Commits To Mental Health With Tracking On Watch & iPhoneGoogle has boosted its Lens image recognition tool so that it is now capable of recognising certain forms of skin disorders.While a smartphone is obviously no substitute for a certified healthcare professional, it could be a key tool in alerting us to potential health risks.Among other new features, Google Lens can now analyse the health of your skin, whether it's scrutinizing a suspicious mole or a rash.To do this, point your smartphone's camera at the skin (or take a photo of it) and the app will suggest a number of possible corresponding conditions. These are accompanied by numerous images which can be compared with your own skin.This area is not a totally new one for Google, which demonstrated a dedicated application called DermAssist at its annual Google I/O conference in 2021, capable of identifying various skin anomalies.It's key to keep in mind that Google Lens is by no means a medical diagnostic tool or a replacement for a doctors' opinion, but rather a means of detecting potential problems before consulting a healthcare professional.The latest version of Lens enables users to perform a wide range of functions.Other practical applications include translating road signs or menus into over a hundred languages, solving mathematical problems simply by pointing the camera at an equation, or discovering new dishes and eating establishments near your location.The power of Lens is soon to be integrated into Bard, Google's generative artificial intelligence.


Redeem Apple Products with Credit Card Reward Points

Previously, we've shared about Switch's "iPad for Everyone" and "iPhone for Everyone" plans where customers are allowed to pay for their Apple products through installments without needing a credit card. Now, Switch has come up with yet another great program to help more people purchase their first (or tenth!) Apple product.
  One of the reasons why people choose to sign up for credit cards is for the reward points. Many people collect reward points for months and even years just to redeem it for something that they really want but can't afford. Here are a few more things you can redeem with your points now!
  Switch has recently introduced "Pay with Points", which means you can now go to any Switch outlet to redeem your credit card points for an iPhone or iPad! Right now, the participating banks only include Maybank and CIMB, but we believe the list might expand in the future.The reward points conversion rate is as follows:CIMB: 400 points to RM1Maybank: 500 points to RM1For more information, you can check out their poster or just head to any Switch outlet.
  Of course, not everyone has tens of thousands of reward points, especially if they don't use their credit cards frequently. That is why Switch is very accommodating and flexible on payments. For example, if you only have enough points to redeem RM1000 for a RM3000 device, you can pay the remaining RM2000 by cash, credit card (more points!), or by installment.
  So, if you don't have plenty of free cash lying around, but have been accumulating reward points for a while now, consider this new "payment method" the next time you need a new Apple product!

49% Of SPM Graduates Rather Work As E-Hailing Driver Or Become A Social Media Influencer

Times have changed, and compared to pursuing further education after secondary school, more young people nowadays are eager to enter the workforce early and become social media influencers or ride-hailing drivers.
  According to a survey reported by Astro AEC News, 49% of 2022 SPM (Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia) candidates have no intention of pursuing higher education and prefer to start working early.Among the young individuals who have no interest in further studies, 34% aspire to become social media influencers, 26% are interested in joining the ride-hailing industry, and 22% have intentions of starting their own business or venturing into the food and beverage industry.The survey involved 1,000 respondents aged between 18 and 20. Among the 490 respondents who expressed no interest in continuing their studies, about one-third cited economic reasons, while approximately one-fifth believed that obtaining a higher education qualification no longer guarantees profitable returns as it used to. This is primarily due to the issue of low wages, where some individuals with higher education qualifications earn even less than those without such qualifications.According to Barjoyai Bardai, an economist from Universiti Tun Abdul Razak, suggested that the government encourage these SPM graduates who are not keen on pursuing higher education to consider engaging in modern agriculture. This approach would not only enhance the country's food security but also provide them with a monthly income ranging from RM5,000 to RM8,000.What are your thoughts on this?

M'sian Teaches How To Use Popular Tamil Word "Anneh" In A Proper Context

There is just no other place like Malaysia. a nation where different languages and cultures coexist. It is also gratifying to hear someone who is not of your race speak your language in daily interactions or speak it even more fluently than you.On TikTok, this Msian goes by the handle @divendranbaskaran and enjoys educating others about his ethnicity, way of life, and language. Many of his followers are of different races, and they enjoy learning from him and asking questions.  @divendranbaskaran Replying to @kebaskakiku #fyp #anne #tiktokmalaysia #malaytiktok #dee #nansense #N4NSENSE #malaysia #tamiltiktok  SWIPE - ALYPH   One follower asked him about the Tamil word, Anneh.So, what is anneh? The Tamil word anneh means big brother. This implies that the term may be used to describe a man who is older than you. Even if the other person is your same age, you can still use the word as a sign of respect.But you shouldn't call your husband this (if you are married). Divendran emphasizes this since some Malay women call their husbands abang.It is a word for a different context.For instance, calling the server anneh when you go to a mamak is another right way. That is how you should do it!

STFU We're Getting Princess Diaries 3 After 18 Years Of Begging??

Are we heading back to Genovia?!Based on reports, it would appear that Disney is working on a Princess Diaries 3 after 18 years of waiting.
  In it's early stages, the cast has yet to be announced. However, scriptwriter Aadrita Mukerji notes that it would be a continuation from where the series left off and not a reboot. Main star Anne Hathaway ( HRH Mia Thermopolis) hasn't said anything about it. She did though confirm on there being a script and she would quote unquote love to be a apart of it.
  "I want to do it. Julie wants to do it. Debie Martin Chase our producer wants to do it. We all really want it to happen. We don't want to do it unless it's perfect, because we love it just as much as you guys love it. "It's as important to us as it is to you and we don't want to deliver anything until it's ready. But we're working on it." she said on Watch What Happens Live in 2019.
  We guess this only means one thing. "A queen is never late, everyone else is simply early".

Bullet Journal Ideas: What To Write In Your Bullet Journal

Bullet journaling, also known as bujo, is something that has gained some momentum lately, especially when people are having more and more time on their hands due to the pandemic. We've shared about bullet journal Instagram profiles for design inspirations before, but designing and customizing it is only half of the fun. The other half lies in actually using it and filling it up. If you're ever at a lost on what to write in your bullet journals, here are some things you can try!1. Daily JournalAs the name suggests, a bujo should be a journal detailing your day to day experiences. Diary writers back in the day know how interesting it actually is to look back at a diary entry and recall some of the best and worst memories they've had. Not only that, you can also take the opportunity to reflect on your day (which is a form of meditation) while journaling.2. OrganizerPart of your bujo can be dedicated to a calendar, which will allow you to schedule your appointments, from an evening date to a job interview. This way, you will reduce your chances of accidentally overbooking yourself on the same day or miss an important meeting.3. To-Do-ListIt could be a to-do-list for a day if you woke up feeling ambitious. It could be a to-do-list for a project you are handling at your job, with clear deadlines to meet. It could also be your New Year's resolutions for a brand new year. The possibilities are endless as long as your goals are too!4. Learning JournalYou could dedicate a portion of your bujo to random things that you've picked up and would like to remind yourself of. For example, you might have learned something after finish a movie, write that down. Maybe you just read a paragraph in a book that is totally reliable, write that down. Perhaps you saw a recipe on TV that you'd like to try some day, write that down!5. BudgetingAs we grow up, our personal finance plays an important role in our lives. Budgeting is a key component in helping us save more money for our future and it can all be done with pen and paper (and a lot of color). No need for complicated excel sheets or apps, you can plan your budget and record all your expenses right in your bullet journal!6. EntertainmentFinally, if you have too many empty pages left, just use it for anything that comes to mind. Feel like drawing your own comic? Sure! Have an inspiration or a business idea? Fantastic! If you bring your bujo with you while travelling, try to draw your favorite spot or just write down what you were listening to at that time.Your bullet journal content is only limited by your own imagination. The ultimate goal here is to feel good about journaling. Everyone has their own unique methods so if following someone else's bujo ideas seem too hard, then so be it. You do you, and make your bujo yours!

5 Shaving Hacks That Won’t Give You Strawberry Legs

Do you always end up with strawberry legs after every shave? Learn these 5 hacks & you can show off that dewy skin like it's nobody's business!1- Shop for men's razorSource: InstagramSwap your pink, girly razors for the men's blue ones. Think about it. Men's razors are made to shave delicate facial skin. So, it's enough gentle & smooth when gliding on your skin. You might miss the large lubricating strip on your ladies' razor. Just make it up with a dab of coconut oil before shaving. Tip: Go for Gillette. 2- The RoutineSource: InstagramJump in the shower first before you shave! In fact, here's the proper shaving routine so you don't get nasty razor bumps:  Soak + Exfoliate + Condition + Shave + Rinse + MoisturizeThe truth is you'll need to take time when it comes to shaving! Rushing things will end up with painful cuts & gritty skin. 3- Prep your skinSource: InstagramNo one wants ugly ingrown hairs sticking to their skin. So, don't skip these two steps BEFORE shaving: exfoliate & condition!Exfoliate with a dry brush, loofah, or natural scrub products for a smooth, dead-skin free canvas. Never scrub your body after shaving or you'll irritate your tender skin. Condition your skin to get a protection layer from nicks, cuts & hair pulls. Plus, it prevents moisture loss. Use a body conditioner, if you're not a fan of shaving cream/gel. Avoid coconut/olive oil as they will end up blocking up your pores. 4- Stick to the directionSource: InstagramHere's the key rule: First, shave in the direction of the grain. Then, glide in the direction against the grain for a closer shave. Cover small sections each time for an even result. Caution: The sharp blades can cut. So, be very slow & gentle. 5- After-careSource: InstagramYou're not done yet! For healthy & hydrated skin, make sure to dab on your post-shave moisturizer. Choose from shea butter, tea tree oil, aloe vera gel or alcohol-free men's aftershave. Don't leave it dry & flaky, if you plan to flaunt those legs in your best LBD. Shave because you want to, not because you have to! -unknown
