The intense heat from the hairdryer or flatiron will ruin the fiberseven if the fibers are natural, such as sable or camelhair. The brushes are a makeup brush are mush more fragile than the hair on your head. If you dry your brushes in an enclosed area, such as the bathroom, the bristles may not get enough air-flow, which might cause mildew. This will result in musty-smelling bristles. Ew! When your brushes are dry, store them either upright in a cup, or lay them down on their side. Do not store them pointing down, or the bristles will get crooked. If you want to carry your brushes in a bag, store them flat in a brush case or bag dedicated to your brushes. Before you set your makeup brush out to dry, or even between washes, disinfect your brush with a vinegar-water solution. Don't worry, the strong, vinegar smell will disappear once the bristles dry. Fill a small bowl or cup with two parts water and one part vinegar. Swirl your brush in the solution, but avoid wetting the part where the bristles meet the handle. Rinse the brush with clean water and set it out to dry.

Answer: Hydrogen peroxide may be too harsh for you if you have sensitive skin. Peroxide can be very drying, which can be irritating if you're prone to breakouts or skin reactions. If peroxide is drying your ear canals, try adding a few drops of mineral or baby oil to the peroxide. If that doesn't help, use an alternate method to clean your ears. You can try warm water alone or a saline solution, instead. Make a saline solution by dissolving teaspoon of salt in a cup of boiled water. If you have an ear infection, don't try to clean your ears with peroxide. See your doctor to get diagnosed and treated you might need antibiotics, depending on what's causing your infection. You may have an ear infection if you have ear pain (especially when you lie down), diminished hearing, and fluid draining from your ear.

Look for signs of a possible ear infection in children, such as crying and pulling at their ear, trouble sleeping, difficulty hearing and responding to sounds, fever of 100F (38C) or higher, loss of balance, not eating, or complaining of a headache. If your eardrum perforates, or ruptures, don't put anything liquid in your ear.

See your doctor right away ruptured eardrums usually heal by themselves, but they might need to be repaired surgically. In the meantime, keep your ear clean and dry. You should not use peroxide if you have ear tubes, or tympanostomy tubes. Some people get small hollow tubes surgically implanted in their eardrum as a child if they have frequent ear infections. Don't use peroxide if you've ever had ear surgery.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Wear non-slip shoes with good traction. Walk where the tiles overlap. Keep to the flattest and driest areas of your roof. Work with another person. Consider hiring a professional to clean your roof.

Answer: Tiles get slippery, especially once they are wet and covered in a cleaning treatment. Wear shoes with good grip on the soles, such as athletic shoes, to help you maintain your balance as you work. Avoid wearing flip-flops or other slip-on shoes without good traction. Additionally, it's a good idea to wear old clothes, rubber gloves and eye protection. The strongest and sturdiest areas on your tile roof are located where the tiles overlap. If for some reason you are forced to step directly on the tiles, always place your feet on the lower portion. The lower part of the tile has the most support beneath it. These are the least slippery areas. Plan out your work so that you are always able to work from a dry location on the roof. Try to stay on the flattest areas, as well. Flat areas make it possible to distribute your weight evenly, allowing for better balance and foot traction. If possible, have a partner help you from the ground. Your partner can pass things up to you, which prevents you from having to go up and down the ladder frequently. A partner will also have a different viewpoint from which to observe the roof, and can help to direct you as needed. Even if you take all of the necessary safety precautions, this can still be a dangerous job. This is especially true if you've never cleaned your own roof before. For these reasons, most people prefer to hire a professional for this task. The extra expense will be worth it if it means ensuring your own safety. A professional will also have all of the necessary tools and supplies on hand for this job, which means you won't have to buy them yourself.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Encourage your teen to exercise. Get your teen to try some relaxation techniques. Help your teen to follow a healthy, balanced diet. Educate your teen about the dangers of drugs and alcohol. Make sure your teen gets enough sleep.

Answer:
Exercise is a very important aspect of dealing with a mood disorder, as it helps to balance your teen's hormones. Exercise allows the body to release more feel-good hormones, such as dopamine and endorphins. These hormones provide the body with a natural high, meaning that your teen will feel happy and energetic. What is more, mood disorders are often provoked by a poor body image, especially during the teen years, so getting enough exercise can help to solve that aspect of the problem as well. Relaxation techniques are another important part of dealing with a mood disorder. Relaxation techniques such as yoga and meditation help to bring down anxiety levels in people of all ages, teens included These activities normalize your heart-rate and breathing, which is very helpful because your mind and body are constantly interconnected and physical reactions such as heavy breathing and fast heart-rate can increase anxiety levels. Teens might sometimes feel a bit negative towards relaxation techniques, so make an effort to do them together. This could also be a nice way for you and your teen to bond. A healthy balanced diet will not cure your teen's mood disorder in and of itself, but it will help to give them more energy, allow them to concentrate better in school and make them feel better about themselves physically. Make sure your teen is getting three healthy meals a day, which include a good balance of whole grains, fruits, vegetables and healthy proteins. Don't allow your teen to skip breakfast - it really is the most important meal of the day as it kick starts the metabolism and gives your teen the energy they need to face the day. Limit the amount of junk food your teen eats. Too much junk food can lead to weight gain, which can exacerbate issues with body image, particularly amongst teen girls. Junk food is also devoid of important vitamins and minerals, which could leave your teen susceptible to other healthy issues. It's very important to educate your teen about the dangers of drugs and alcohol. These substances have a more profound effect on people with disorders and can make manic or depressive episodes worse. For example, alcohol is a depressant and can easily trigger a depressive episode in a teen who suffers from a mood disorder. Stimulant drugs like cocaine, on the other hand, may trigger a manic episode in certain people. Of course, it will be impossible for you to monitor your teen at all times, and they probably won't appreciate you checking up on them all the time. Therefore, it's important that you calmly and clearly communicate the rules regarding drugs and alcohol to your teen, then give them some space and trust that they will make the right decision. Getting enough sleep is absolutely essential for teens who suffer from mood disorders, in order to keep them emotionally balanced. Teenagers should be getting at least 8 hours sleep per night and should aim to go to bed and wake up at the same time each day. This can be very difficult for teens who prefer to stay up late surfing the internet or talking on their phones. Therefore, it may be necessary for you to enforce a bedtime or at least remove distractions such as computers or TVs from your teen's room. Also make sure that your teen's sleeping environment is conducive to a good nights sleep - it should be dark and quiet, and maintained at a comfortable cool temperature.
