I remember when Cantu products were first introduced to the market, and YouTubers were so crazy about them. It was all over the Internet. Almost every YouTube influencer was talking about it. It felt like if you weren't using CANTU products, you weren't using one of the best hair products on the market, and I applaud YouTube bloggers for helping this brand stand out and become one of the most popular hair care and styling brand. They have expanded and made new products, but are their products worth the hype?
Please note that I used a soft brush in the above picture; a tightly bristled brush is recommended for better effect.

It is another beautiful Monday morning, and a girl decided to wear her Femme Luxe cargo pants and puffy jacket in order to look simple and stylish. I've always admired cargo pants from afar but never seriously considered buying a pair myself since they first became popular or started trending. I thought I'd give them a try and see how they looked. Mind you, this jacket is warm and suits the winter season.
While getting ready for work this morning, the locksmiths arrived at my house right before I left for work, fixed the lock, and installed a second lock. Yesterday morning, as I was trying to unwind, I heard my intercom ring so I got up to answer, and being that I was expecting a package, I assumed it was my package. However, when I waited to see who it was, no one picked up the phone. A few seconds later, I opened my door to find that someone had tried to break into my apartment, which I think happened the night before, and the person wanted to find out if there was anyone in the house before trying to break in again. It was hostile and unsettling, but I called the apartment manager, and they said someone would be out this morning to fix the lock and add an additional lock and also advised that the incident be reported to the police.
Law enforcement is looking into the situation. I can't shake the feeling that this person is following me around, trying to figure out when there are people in the apartment and when the door is closed and locked. Amazingly, I learned yesterday that theft is on the rise in Glasgow. I'm on high alert, and I'm going to be even quieter in my apartment in case this person tries to break in again so I can call the police immediately. Have you ever been in a situation like this before, and how did you handle it?
Around the world, people celebrate birthdays, but children especially like them since their parents often create a cake depicting their favorite anime, character, or object, which makes the event even more enjoyable.
Children are wonderful, and one way to celebrate them is by celebrating them on their special days. Don't forget to invite their friends and their favorite teacher if the party is not being held at his or her school. You can select one of these cakes, which I am certain they will enjoy.

Playing responsive games with babies and toddlers helps them grow and learn in a healthy way.
Do you desire your child to develop into a healthy, happy, intelligent, capable, and resilient adult? Engage them in play. Games that are lively and adapt as the child grows are ideal for infants and toddlers.
Why is play important in the early years of life?
The brain's neural network expands by more than a million connections in the first few years of life. Additionally, these neuronal connections are made more effective by pruning. These procedures actually contribute to the development of the brain and help mold how it works for the remainder of the child's life. This is influenced by biology, primarily genetics, but also by a child's upbringing and experiences.
With attentive care, babies and kids flourish. The Harvard Center on the Developing Child coined the phrase "serve and return" to characterize this situation. Back-and-forth exchanges in which the child and carer respond to and engage with each other in a caring, loving way are the foundation of a healthy brain and a content child who will have a higher likelihood of developing into a healthy, content, capable, and successful adult.
One of the best methods to provide responsive care is through play. To increase the advantages of playing:
Parents can get some fantastic suggestions and handouts from the Center for the Developing Child about certain games to play with their kids at various ages.
Children as young as 6 months and 9 months are acquiring the basics of the language, including mimicry. Additionally, they are beginning to learn how to move and explore their surroundings.
For this age group, try some of these games:
Play patty-cake or peek-a-boo.
Play games where you hide toys under a blanket, then you must "discover" them, or you can let the baby do it.
Have back-and-forth conversations. The infant may only make the sounds "ma" or "ba." You can respond by making the same noise or by acting as though your child is speaking ("You are silent! Really? Explain further! ").
Play imitation games. For instance, if your kid sticks out their tongue, copy them. Older infants will be able to imitate sounds like clapping or hammering, and they will like it when adults replicate those sounds with them.
Sing along to songs featuring motions, such as "Itsy Bitsy Spider" or "Trot, Trot to Boston."
Play simple games with objects, like dumping them and saying "boom" or putting toys in a bucket and taking them out.

One of the best methods to provide responsive care is through play. To increase the advantages of playing:
- Bring all of your focus. Put down the phone and avoid multitasking.
- Being reciprocal The "serve and return" component is this. You want to encourage interaction between newborns and their carers, even when they are little. The goal is to incorporate responsiveness into the play; it doesn't have to be reciprocal in an equal sense—you might be speaking in complete phrases while your baby is only smiling or cooing.
- Be aware of developmental milestones. Your child will be able to participate fully, and you will be able to support their growth at the same time.

Are you looking for ways to promote your small business? No matter what your business is, there are plenty of marketing techniques available that can help to increase awareness of your brand and convert to more sales.
Don’t let lack of experience put you off, marketing is about trial and error so you should test various methods to see what works best for your target audience and your business. Luckily, this can typically be done with a relatively low budget, meaning the only real commitment is your time.
Before you start with any of the techniques mentioned below, it is worth establishing a marketing plan. This doesn’t need to be extensive, but you should spend some time determining two things; who are you targeting and what you want to achieve. This could be anything from increased sales to more repeat custom.
Social media
Social media is the perfect place to start as it requires no financial investment and allows you to potentially reach a wide audience.
Firstly, decide which social media platforms will work for your business. There are benefits to using different platforms, and eventually, you may choose to create content that works across multiple, but it is wise to start with just one whilst you get to grips with it.
Facebook is useful for providing customers with concise information about your business and dealing with enquiries. Instagram is more commonly used for building a brand and showcasing products and services. TikTok works well for video content and introducing customers to your brand’s personality and values.
Try not to overthink when posting on social media, if you use it yourself, consider what type of content you would like to see. Aim for quality over quantity of posts, especially to begin with.

Collagen has recently gained popularity due to claims that it can slow the ageing process and keep people looking and feeling young. You've probably seen collagen products in the aisles for makeup, skin care, and vitamins. But what is it, and why does it have so many fans?
Collagen is the most abundant protein in our bodies. It is found in our skin, muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Collagen is a multi-amino acid protein composed of glycine, proline, hydroxyproline, and arginine. It is responsible for our skin's strength and flexibility.
As we get older, our bodies naturally make less collagen. This can cause wrinkles, skin that sags, and even pain in the joints. When we see these signs that our bodies aren't making as much collagen, many of us turn to products that contain collagen.
It can also come from the scales of fish or the shells of eggs. It is mostly made from the connective tissue of cows. Marine collagen is made by fish and other sea creatures. Collagen is made from animal waste by taking the connective tissue and grinding it into a fine powder.
After processing, collagen can be found in dietary supplements, lotions, and other cosmetics. It was first used in beauty products. When people saw results from using collagen in beauty products, it became popular as a supplement.
What is vegan collagen?
A vegan collagen is a cruelty-free option. Vegan collagen is still in its early phases of development and is frequently manufactured from a kind of yeast known as Pichia pastoris.
P. pastoris is the most efficient and widely used microorganism for the production of high-quality vegan collagen supplements.
It is hard to find a vegan collagen supplement right now. Most likely, you'll find a vegan collagen booster instead. Most vegan collagen supplements have words like "collagen boost" or "collagen builder" on the label. These boosters and builders have ingredients that help your body make more collagen on its own.Even though vegan supplements that you take by mouth are harder to find, there are a lot of vegan collagen beauty products available. When looking for a vegan product, always check the label and list of ingredients to make sure it has a vegan certification and hasn't been tested on animals.
What is the cause of collagen loss?
Many things can speed up the loss of collagen in our bodies. Ageing causes us to lose collagen, but the environment and how we live our lives can also make us lose collagen.
Ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun damage the skin and, over time, make the skin less able to make collagen. One reason you should always wear sunscreen is because of this.
Collagen has an effect on our bones, too. As we get older, the collagen in our bones becomes less reliable, which makes our bones weaker.
Other lifestyle choices, like smoking cigarettes, drinking alcohol, or eating too much added sugar or ultra-processed foods, can hurt collagen production and the body's ability to repair itself.
Collagen Production
Our bodies make collagen on their own. Even though vegans don't need collagen supplements, there doesn't seem to be any reason not to take them. Before adding to or changing your supplement routine, you should always talk to your doctor or nurse.
Increasing the amount of protein you eat may help your body make more collagen. Eating a variety of proteins throughout the day makes sure that your body gets the amino acids it needs to keep making collagen. Healthy adults should try to get at least 0.8 grammes of protein per kilogramme of body weight per day, or 36 grammes of protein per pound.
Consider adding these and other plant-based proteins to your vegan diet to meet your nutritional needs and help your body make collagen naturally:
Tofu
Nuts and Seeds from Quinoa
Legumes, all varieties
Beans, all varieties
Collagen Boosters
Collagen boosters are foods that help your body make more of its own collagen. When added to plant-based proteins, these boosters may help the body make more collagen. Even though more research needs to be done in this area, vitamin C, amino acids, copper, and antioxidants may help vegans build collagen.
Vitamin C
One of the most important things for making collagen is vitamin C. It helps connective tissue repair and heal. 3 It also helps protect cells from damage caused by free radicals because it is a powerful antioxidant. Our bodies cannot make vitamin C, so we must get it from our diet.
Vitamin C is a vitamin that dissolves in water and can be found in many fruits and vegetables. Some good vegan places to get vitamin C are:
Oranges
Peppers
Kale
Broccoli, Kiwi, Strawberries
Amino Acids

Amino Acids
Collagen can also be made with the help of amino acids from plant-based proteins. Proteins in our bodies are made up of amino acids.
Collagen can't be made without proline, which is an amino acid. Soybeans, cabbage, and mushrooms all have proline in them. Another amino acid that helps the body make collagen is glycine. It can be found in pumpkin seeds, soybeans, and spirulina.
Copper is an important part of collagen because it helps make red blood cells, bones, and the fibres that hold tissues together. It can be found in beans, lentils, nuts, seeds, and dark leafy greens.
Antioxidants are all important for making collagen because they keep your cells healthy and protect them from damage caused by free radicals. Blueberries, goji berries, and acai berries are all good plant-based sources of antioxidants.

It can be scary to spend time alone with ourselves. Most of us tend to fill our time regularly with things like work, side projects, freelance jobs, hobbies, and, most of the time, other people.
Even though it can be nice to get away from the noise of other people sometimes, it is hard to do this for a long time. We don't mind having our own thoughts, but we don't really want to be alone with them either.
But maybe there is something to how we choose to talk to ourselves when we're by ourselves. When we're with good people, we're usually happy to spend money on things like wine bars, meals out, live music, and movies. All of these things are fun to do by yourself, but we don't want to. So, as payback, here are some tips on how to date yourself.
Make each day feel fresh.
When and where you go on dates with yourself can be hard to figure out. A good way to start can be to do something you do every day in a new place, which gives your routine a new feel. Instead of going to the gym, try working from a new coffee shop, walking around the park without your phone, or cooking a meal at home instead of ordering in.
