Find the reason behind nail biting online

If you are spending money on solutions to put an end to nail biting, it could pay to instead get to the bottom of WHY you are doing it! Nail biting is associated with anxiety, because the act of chewing on nails reportedly relieves stress, tension, or boredom. People who habitually bite their nails often report that they do so when they feel nervous, bored, lonely, or even hungry. For more information, visit this link:

Cheap MP3 download helped me quit nail biting for good!

I found the answer to quitting my lifelong nail biting habit in a $15 app! Over the years I had tried everything from bitter aloes to spending a fortune paying for regular manicures, thinking if I paid someone I would be too embarrassed to turn up with bitten nails. I do not like acrylic nails at all, so that was not an option for me. Now in my 50's, I shudder to think how much money I have spent on manicures over the years! The only thing that worked for me and worked immediately was hypnotherapy - but not the 'go-see-a-hypnotherapist-at-$300-an-hour-for-five-to-ten-sessions', no way! I simply purchased a downloadable MP3 for $15 USD. I listened to it each night as I went to sleep. Normally it takes about 21 days to change a habit, but I found that it worked for me completely after five days. I have no desire to bite my nails at all. I continue to listen to it from time to time as a "top-up" to maintain the cessation of nail biting. I bought my download online from www.stevegjones.com He has MP3 hypnosis programs for everything from weight loss to writer's block. They vary in price and often he has flash sales from as little as $1 per MP3 program. I am not affiliated with his company at all, but can highly recommend!

Wonder cleaner for the stove

I had moved into a home with an old kitchen and the stovetop needed a really good clean. I tried everything to shift the baked on grease from the rings that surrounded the coil hotplates but to no avail.

My friend suggested removing the rings and soaking them in Napisan and hot water. I actually used a generic brand nappy cleaner and it worked just as well. To my utter surprise, it removed what must have been 20 years of baked on grease. The stove looks brand new! I then did the same with the grill and oven racks, and they too came up sparkling and shiny.

For maintenance, some vinegar in a spray bottle cuts through any grease or grime left on a stovetop after cooking. But beware of vinegar on or near marble, as it eats right through it!

I thought this hint would be particularly useful for anyone moving into a rental property or having to clean their rental property before they move out. You'll save on cleaning products and get your bond back! And don't throw out pots and pans covered with grease or grime. Give them a Napisan treatment and save dollars.

Anti-pimple treatment that works!

I save over $50 per month on skin care preparations for my children's teenage skin. With four of them, I have spent a fortune over the years on pimple creams, Panoxyl at $12 a tube and the latest Diprovan cream at $52 per month.

Once, we ran out and in exasperation I advised my daughter to use bicarbonate of soda and lemon juice. It works! Cut a lemon in half and save one half covered in the fridge for later use. Rub the other half on affected areas and use as a cleanser. Rinse, then cut a slice off the top, wrap in cling film and place in the fridge. Then mix one teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda with a small amount of water to make a paste. Dab onto affected pimples and leave for half an hour. Then rinse off. (Perfect for evenings when doing homework!)

The lemon acts as an astringent and is antibacterial. The bi-carb dries up the excess oil causing the pimple.

For a cheap and effective moisturiser we use Vaseline Intensive Care at $8.00 a bottle, which lasts six months. A total cost of $26 (lemons from the garden) per year and my daughter has recommended this to all her friends. Much better than $600 spent at the chemist each year!
