151 Beauty Tips
Part 8
148. Have you ever been stung by a bee and gotten a huge red bump because of it? Hopefully, you aren't allergic to bee stings. If you are, you know what to do. Dab a little bit of meat tenderizer on it to reduce the swelling and minimize the pain. Or, you can try dabbing it with the Calendula flower or garlic. Yep, you can eat it or create a poultice that will break it down quickly. Onions work as well.
149. Insomnia is not part of a beneficial beauty routine. If you have trouble sleeping, try lemon balm tea. There are other herbal teas that also work well, but none have the same reputation as lemon balm for a bedtime herb.
150. How beautiful do you feel when you're pregnant? All that stuff about how beautiful a pregnant woman is was obviously written by men! Take all the beauty treatments and tips in this guide, multiply them by three and maybe, just maybe we might feel a little bit better about how we look and feel. All kidding aside, probably one of the worse side effects of pregnancy is "morning sickness" no matter what time of day it hits you personally. You have to be careful about what you ingest. Try Peppermint or any of the other "mints." Brew a mild tea and sip it slowly. Believe it or not one of the old home remedies for nausea is raw or cooked cabbage. Sauerkraut is reported to be of particular benefit, soothing the intestines.
151. If you have avoided our recommendations and have gotten sunburn, you certainly aren't feeling very beautiful! Try breaking a stem off an aloe plant and rubbing on the affected areas. Another tip is to apply cooled black tea to the burn areas. And, while we don't recommend this often because it is a very strong astringent, witch hazel will work wonders on sunburn.
