Do You Have a Constant Itch In Your Ear? THIS Is What It Means..
One of the worst possible areas to get an itch is inside your ear. If you’ve ever experienced this then you know exactly how insane it can make you feel. All you want to do is itch the darn spot but you simply cannot reach it! It’s torturous and makes you wonder why your ears even itch in the first place, after all it’s kind of an odd spot.
Itchy ears may be caused by several different things. Some people are naturally predisposed to having them because the neurological fibers that line their ears are highly sensitive. This increased sensitivity can lead to more frequent feelings of itchiness, as compared to the average person. Another factor that causes it is dry skin. Everyone knows how flaky and itchy dry skin feels and oftentimes a lack of ear wax can lead to the insides of our ears feeling very uncomfortable.
Our ears are naturally sensitive even if you don’t have the extra-sensitive fibers mentioned above. As such, any disturbance or sudden change can lead to a person developing itchy ears. Some of the most common causes include ear infections, allergic reactions, irritation brought on by a hearing aid or headphones, too much water in the ear, and even psoriasis can trigger the unwanted feelings.
The accompanying video goes over these and additional causes in greater detail so be sure to check it out. While most people’s itchy ears are minor and clear up on their own, some may be a cause for concern. If other symptoms accompany them such as bleeding, intense pain, discharge, draining, or hearing loss, you should consult a doctor immediately in case it’s because of something more serious.
While your first reaction may be to stick something in your ear to try and itch the spot, that’s the worst thing you could do. Whenever you stick anything into your ears you’re making them dirtier and increasing the odds of developing an ear infection or potentially something even worse.
Every year there are countless numbers of people who injure and damage their inner ears because they stick things, usually Q-tips, way too forcibly and far up them. Yet people continue to stick things in their ears in vain attempts to scratch their itch. Doing this is ineffective and just pushes any wax that may be in the ear canal further up into it, thereby increasing the potential for build up and blockage. Whatever you do, don’t use Q-tips to try and clean or itch your ears!
Instead, try one of the following all-natural and effective home remedies to treat a minor case of itchy ears:
Warm Oil- You can use the following oils to relieve itchy ears; olive, coconut, vegetable, diluted tea tree, or coconut. Warm up about a teaspoon full to a comfortable temperature and then use a dropper to place a few drops in your ear. Tilt your head to clear the oil out after a minute or two and clean up the excess oil.
Hydrogen Peroxide- Mix equal parts water and hydrogen peroxide. Tilt your head to one side and use a dropper to place some in your ear. Tilt your head back and allow the liquid to run out, repeat if necessary, and dab up the remaining liquid as it drips out.
Aloe Vera- Place 3-5 drops of aloe vera in your ear, allow it to sit there for a few seconds, then tip out. The Aloe vera will coat the inner ear and help to restore pH levels back to normal. It also acts as an anti-inflammatory agent and thus helps soothe and heal irritated, dry, itchy ears!
Alcohol and Vinegar- Mix equal parts rubbing alcohol and distilled white vinegar in a small bowl. Soak a cotton ball in the liquid and then tilt your head so that the ear you want to treat faces upwards. Gently squeeze the cotton ball to release a few drops into the ear opening and wait 5-10 seconds. Straighten your head and dab up the remaining liquid as it drips out with a tissue. Don’t overuse this one because rubbing alcohol can end up drying out ears.

If Your Eyelids Tend To Droop and Sag THIS Life Hack Is The Best Natural Way To Fix It.
Anyone who has eyelids that droop or sag knows just how much they can affect their appearance. The droopy skin makes people look tired and constantly worn out no matter how well-rested they may be. It causes them to appear older and the frustration doesn’t end there because it also makes it a lot harder to apply makeup!
The condition is most typically a natural result of aging for the majority of people, but in some cases it may be caused by disease, nerve damage, injury, or something else. Beyond invasive plastic surgery there’s not much you can do about sagging eyelids in terms of effective and affordable, but don’t give up hope just yet! Countless people have found that an easy, all-natural, and inexpensive home remedy works for them. Best of all, the only thing that you need to try it is one egg!
We all know the popular slogan “The Incredible, Edible Egg,” but not so many people are aware of just how useful eggs can be beyond cooking and eating them. They have been utilized in a variety of homemade beauty treatments for thousands of years and mixed up into all sorts of facial masks and hair treatments.
Egg based beauty blends are excellent for diminishing blemishes and scars, hydrating skin and hair, getting rid of blackheads, and preventing acne. They’re also effective at helping to tighten up the skin around the eye area, making it appear smoother and less droopy.
To do the egg white skin treatment at home simply crack open an egg and remove the yolk. An easy trick to separating the yolk from the white is to first crack it onto a plate, then take a clean empty water bottle and remove the cap. Squeeze some air out and use it the bottle to suck up the yolk.
Next, wash and deep clean your face. Make sure there is no trace of makeup left on or around your eyelids and gently pat dry your skin. Take the egg white and apply it onto your eyelids with a cotton swab. Be extra careful to avoid getting any in your eyes.
Also, it’s very important that you don’t skimp on the coverage or amount, be generous! Keep your eyes closed while you wait for the egg whites to completely dry and when that’s over rinse off the egg and wash your face. Pat dry again before applying your regular moisturizer or serum.
You should see results immediately and they typically last for a couple of days. Since the treatment is completely safe and all-natural you can do the above application once a week or every day if you’d like. It’s best to use it in conjunction with eye exercises that target and tighten saggy eyelids, which the accompanying video covers. This helps to further reduce wrinkles so definitely make sure to check it out.

This Simple Life Hack Will To Stop Your Thighs From Getting Chafed This Summer!
CHAFING is caused when heat causes us to sweat, our thighs touch, causing this painful rash. As women, this can occur whether or not we are overweight, (although it has been nicknamed “Chub Rub”), as many women carry more weight in their thighs, so the tendency for skin-on-skin contact in this area is quite common. Not that many women have the good fortune of having thighs that don’t touch. The video you are about to watch below, offers several great tricks for preventing the pain of chafing from occurring this summer!
WHEN EXERCISING wearing shorts, leggings or any compression type material will prevent your thighs from touching and causing the pain of chafing. If you enjoy WEARING SKIRTS OR DRESSES, there is no need to skip them; wearing a bike short underneath will do the trick. Not only are they designed to wick moisture away from your skin, but they will keep your thighs from touching. A more appealing and prettier choice that is less bulky, are BANDELETTES which slip around your thighs to keep them from touching.
There are also creams, oils and ointments that can be applied for prevention, which won’t get on your clothes as they get absorbed into your skin. According to “Runner’s World”, any DIAPER RASH CREAM that contains ZINC OXIDE will protect your skin, just as it does for babies! ANTI-PERSPIRANT works, but there is a much better solution known as BODYGLIDE which you can get in sports stores or through Amazon. COCONUT OIL, the natural wonder, is a great solution that not only smells great but has anti-bacterial properties.

This Woman Stacks Flower Pots Onto a Metal Rod. But When She’s Done It’s STUNNING!
Vertical gardens are perfect for people who are low on horizontal space or for those who want fresh herbs and flowers close by. They are the best way to get the most use of a small space and if you live in an apartment or don’t have a yard they’re likely your best and only alternative!
Designs for vertical gardens range from simple and affordable to highly complex and prohibitively expensive. The ‘Tipsy Pots’ idea covered by Tamara Twist and seen here is one of the easier design types and it doesn’t require anything fancy to pull off. All you need are terracotta pots in a variety of sizes and rebar that’s thin enough to fit through the holes in the bottom of them.
There are two different versions of this planter that you can make. One is for yards, since it’s basically stuck into the ground, and the other one can be placed on decks and patios where it’s free-standing. If you plan on making the free-standing patio version you’ll also need cement to make the base that will hold the planter in place and keep it stable and upright.
The entire process is quick and easy for either version you end up making. For the free-standing type start by mixing up enough cement to fill a medium sized terracotta pot. Fill the pot up with cement and then place a piece of rebar measuring 3-4 feet in the center of it. To help keep the rebar straight and upright you should secure the top of it by taping it in place, preferably against a wall or fence, as shown in the video.
In a larger separate terracotta pot place approximately 3-4 inches of soil in the bottom. When the cement has set and hardened take that pot with the rebar in it and place it inside the larger one before filling the rest of the pot up with more soil.
Take another pot and thread it through the rebar, bringing it down until it touches the soil, then tip it so that the back edge of the rim rests firmly against the rebar. Do this with the next pot, but tip it in the opposite direction instead. Continue to add pots, alternating the direction they are tipped in, until you run out of rebar. All that’s left is to place your plants into the pots and you’re done!
To make a free-standing tipsy pot planter without a base simply hammer the rebar 2 feet into the ground. Make sure to that you leave about 3-5 feet sticking out above the ground and then you can begin to thread the pots down, as covered above.
These are so neat and convenient to have around. They put plants and herbs right at your door and are a clever use of simple materials that really catch the eye. Now is the perfect time to start making them so check out the tutorial and share this with friends and family who could use the idea!

Whenever She Goes To Her Yard To Garden She Brings Epsom Salt. The Reason Is Brilliant.
Epsom salt is actually magnesium sulfate, which has been known to have the ability to act as a fertilizer, when mixed into the soil of plants, flowers and trees. This allows the plant to put out more healthy growth!
The video you are about to watch below, provides a tutorial in using Epsom salt MORE DIRECTLY on your flowering and non-flowering plants and trees, as well as on bushes and vines that produce fruit and vegetables. By creating a mixture that you attach to your hose, you will see your garden become MORE LUSH IN LESS TIME. She will explain how doing this enables all of your garden, including your lawn, to receive more chlorophyll which converts into energy.
Your fruits and vegetables will be sweeter, leaves and lawn will be greener, and rose bushes (which are finicky), will produce larger blooms. Potted plants, usually more deficient in magnesium than those planted in the ground, will greatly benefit from adding 2 tbsp of Epsom salt into the soil once monthly. Then spraying the actual leaves and blooms as you will see demonstrated, will keep your potted plants blooming all summer.
