History and Origin of Finishing Powder . In the Middle Ages, powder was used to hide natural features on the face, women powdered their faces with flour and used harsh natural bleaches, such as lye, to get rid of freckles. After decades of practice, a white powdered face became the epitome of beauty standards and with it an exclusive and naturally unjust makeup was born. The white-powdered face also appears in works from the Elizabethan age. It was this time that white powder actually became more common and working class women began to apply flour as white powder to the face. Soon enough, beauty gurus ancestors realized that they had been making a big mistake. This toxic product killed many society women and ruined the complexion of others.

If you have wisdom, you will have money. If you don't have money, question your wisdom. Money is an exchange for value. When a value is given, money is the reward.  Money in its most basic sense is a medium for measuring value rendered. When you have money, you have a sense of defence; the same way wisdom can also serve as a defence in certain situations. Anyone with true wisdom has money. Although money is good and a form of defence, it is uncertain. Only put your trust in God, who gave you the ability to make that money.

Gods kind of riches bring peace of mind and serve as a tool of impact for those in its procession. God has made a covenant where He declared that we would be blessed, and we'' ll be a blessing to others. Every child of God has received the power to make wealth. God

International Women's Day is celebrated on March 8th every year being that it's a principal point in the movement for women's rights. Today, International Women's Day is a public holiday in some countries and predominantly ignored in some other countries. In some places, it is a day of protest; in others, it is a day that celebrates womanhood. It's a call to action for everyone to continue to push for complete gender equality.

Are you flying for the first time or would you like to know how to prepare for your next air travel? Then you are reading the right article. Packing ahead for a trip is quite essential because if you forget an item, you're left disappointed and unstable. I've been there myself. Also, packing too much can be a bit exhausting, leaving you in disarray and you end up paying extra baggage fees. Here are few packing tips that might come in handy; 1. Rolling your clothes, not folding. Tightly rolled clothes take up less space than folded ones. They're also less prone to getting deep wrinkles from folding creases. 2. Make a packing list. Start your packing process days ahead of departure date. This gives you time to strategize and purchase any additional item you might need for your trip. Making a list ensures you never forget to bring anything important for the flight. 3. Know the airline's baggage fee policy so you don't spend above budget for your trip.
