I Am and I Will

 10 million people die each year from cancer. More than one third of cancer cases can be prevented. Another third can be detected early and treated. Cancer has killed more people than HIV/AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis combined. 

Cancer is an unusual and uncontrolled growth that invades the body. It affects almost any part of the human body and ravages the cells. There are millions of people currently fighting cancer and many millions who have lost the battle. This month we honour them by reminding ourselves to live a much healthier life.

One of the best ways to prevent cancer is to adopt a healthy lifestyle: eat healthy foods that’s rich in fruits and vegetables, drink plenty of fluids, exercise and keep active, as well as avoiding bad habits like drinking alcohol, smoking and drug abuse. 

While keeping healthy, don’t forget that what you apply on your skin also matters a great deal. A lot of mass-produced beauty products contain harsh chemicals that aren’t safe - read and know before you use. 

Our hearts ♥️ go out to all those whose lives have been upturned by cancer, you are indeed a soldier worth a Grand Salute ❤️ Send us a message to add someone to our list of Survivors and Legends who have fought with any type of cancer. Visit our Instagram or Facebook pages to tell your story. 

I am Africa’s Best and I Will Tell Africa’s Story

Achieving Your Goals - Getting it Done

5 minutes read The new year usually makes you want to set a target or resolution - something you want to do or a change you want to make. It usually starts off great but sometimes we drop it before the year is through, without accomplishing the goal.  Then, the following year you still find yourself wanting to do, create, have, give or experience that same thing, or even something bigger.

Understanding Your Hair

Image
Great hair is indeed possible, once you understand your hair. We all crave to have healthy, longer, shinier hair, so read on and be on your way to understanding what your hair needs and could do without. Basically, we have 2 types on hair on our body: Vellus hair which is found all over our body, on the upper lip and forehead. It is very fine and short hair which is usually not colored (un-pigmented, usually translucent) and doesn't grow longer than 2cm. This hair has just 2 layers: the cortex and cuticle. Terminal hair which is the longer, coarser, pigmented hair that grows on our scalp, eyebrows, eyelashes, armpits and groin. This hair has 3 layers : the medulla in the middle filled with air and proteins, the cortex containing melanin, and the cuticle on the outside. When hair emerges from our scalp it has about 6 - 10 layers of cuticle. The cells of the cuticle overlap  at about a 5 degree angle (looking like the tiles on a roof), pointing down towards the tips of the...
