Otherwise, all that effort (and cash) you’re putting in will be going to waste and you’ll be taking one step forward and two steps back. One killer example of this is repeated...
Tampons can be quite daunting the first time you use them and particularly compared to pads and other external solutions. However despite the fact that you need to put something inside which might feel odd at first, they are very much worth getting to grips with as they can greatly help you to carry on doing the things you enjoy when you’re on your period and are ideal for things like...

Pore minimizers are products designed to try and reduce the visibility of pores in our skin in order to help reduce the number of spots that we form. Pores are the tiny holes in our skin that allow it to ‘breathe’, but while they are necessary, they are also prone to becoming blocked by tiny specks of dirt which can then lead to the formation of blackheads and ultimately spots.
