    1. Use tomato paste withe enough onions and pepper( add small fresh tomatoes if you can) or dilute the tomato paste with water and fry very well under low heat.
      Low heat is the secret to tasty meals, takes longer time but the outcome is amazing.

  2. Is body scrubbing is as same as bleaching?I noticed since I've been scrubbing my skin is glowing and lighter than before

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Depends on what the active ingredient in what you use as a scrub contains. But scrubbing naturally exfoliates the skin and removes dead cells blocking the pores and makes whatever you apply to your skin penetrate well and work effectively.

    2. Omo B,I do it myself. Sea salt, coffee, turmeric powder and coconut oil,that's all I use

      Delete
    3. You are so correct Omo brizzle

      Delete
    4. Body scrubbing isn't bleaching oh! Like @Omo said,the active ingredients seems to suits your skin hence the glow... kindly reduce how often you use it then...you can be exfoliating once a month

      Delete
    5. It's not bleaching..It's all about using mechanical action to remove dead skins cells and should be done monthly...If you do it frequently, it would feel like you are ''bleaching'' Moderation is key

  3. Hello House, Martins thank you for the juicer recommendation, I got Hurom.
    1. Please why do I open SDK blog and it keeps reloading?

    2. I want to get an mtn WiFi, I already have a 4g mifi but I want to get a broadband router, someone said the 4g mifi is the same as 4g router in terms of connection, that if I want a faster internet connection I should get the 5g router, is this true? Please which other internet network is good in Abuja?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Yes it true cos it's 5G ! The data doesn't last tho due to how fast it is... router are simply for house or office use while mifi is mobile that you can take around

    2. Hi..glad you got what you needed🤝

      For no 1;it's your browser.download another browser like Brave;Microsoft Web or even Google Chrome.

      For no 2;yea it's same;5G is where the difference is.
      I'm not in Abuja;but my friends use either MTN or fibre networks;but you need electricity if you want fibre.

      However inquire in your environment from two or three persons and go for which majority use.

      Hope this helps.

    6. You can try putting charcoal inside the 👟, heard it stops shoe from smelling. Though I haven't tried it before.

    7. You ppl saying she shud sun dry it, didn’t you read that it’s leather shoes? I blv that is why she specifically stated the material. Leather and heat do not work together pls.
      Op, air dry it, never put leather shoes under the sun.

      Delete
    8. Thanks everyone. I really do appreciate.

      Delete


    9. To eliminate the smell, try these steps 👇

      * Let them air dry completely (avoid direct sunlight).
      * Stuff the shoes with newspaper or paper towels to absorb moisture.
      * Mix 1 part white vinegar with 2 parts water and apply the solution to the shoes using a soft cloth. Let them sit for a few hours or overnight.
      * Use a leather cleaner or deodorizer specifically designed for leather shoes.
      * Apply a leather conditioner or leather oil to moisturize the leather and prevent cracking.
      * If the smell persists, consider taking them to a cobbler or shoe repair professional.

      Remember to test any cleaning solution or product on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure it won't damage the leather.

      I hope this helps, and your shoes will be fresh and comfortable to wear again!

      Delete
    10. Wash again and sun dry it thoroughly.

    1. Depends on your budget and the quality you want , I'd say Lagos idumota

      Delete
    2. Thanks, Paris Savannah

      Delete
    3. Your location and the quality you are looking at matters..

      Transport for example is a lot and can tell in your profit margin.

      Also the brand and quality;if you are looking at more of Nigerian products;then it's Aba(Shoe plaza,Power line,Bakassi).

      If you are looking at the Chinese imported or other imported ones; Trade fair in Lagos or Idumota is your shot for direct importers.

      Hope this helps.

  11. Please guys does herpes have cure

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. It’s a Viral infection

      I’m assuming you are referring to Genital Herpes.

      Vitamin C, Vitamin B5 Zinc and Lysine Supplements helps to stop the recurring infection from it.

      Avoid taking Arginine supplements when you are having the Herpes breakout.

      Practice safe sex and stop allowing people with HSV TYPE 1 ( commonly know as fever blisters, Cold sores) to kiss you or perform fellatio on you.

      Be safe…

    2. No cure, it is lifetime. However, like chickenpox after the first outbreak you may never get another. Limit your eating of sweets and yeasty foods.

    4. How old is the person. It is easier to remove fine lines than deep ones and age matters. A 40 yr old would have an easier time than a 65 yr old. The best thing the person can start doing is to put on sunscreen and wear a wide hat or use an umbrella when out in the sun. Lasers can help in hard cases.

  21. Please who has made personal use of the NIMC self-service site to update their information?
    The document to be tendered in a case of correcting an error in the DOB, will a sworn affidavit suffice or is it birth certificate? Because I had wanted to pay for it to be rectified at an LGA NIMC office at Ikotun but the Alhaja there said I must get an attestation from the NPC, before she can tell me what it will cost her to proceed with the correction. Only to get to the NPC office inside the same LGA secretariat and the person in charge told me that attestation would me 19k. How on earth!
    The agents canvassing for clients told me it's their ploy to milk naive individuals that all I need is an affidavit amd that I can even do it myself at the comfort of my home. That all I have to do is download the NIMC self-service app, get the necessary documents, upload and pay for the change into a TSA account via Remita.

    Please can someone explain which right document to use.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. For Dob modification on the nimc self service platform, visit NPC website first and generate the digitised attestation letter for 3k through Remita payment. Then, you can proceed with modification from the comfort of your home and you'll pay about 16k for it through paystack. Do not go to NPC physical office except if you'll have to go to nimc physical office for the modification which costs 15k payable through Remita. Digital attestation is for self service while hard copy from physical NPC office is for physical modification that requires you going to a nimc office. Also, make sure that the DOB you are planning to modify on the self service platform is not more than 5 years. Anything more than 5 years must be done in a nimc physical office. It is so easy and do not meet anyone to vibe for anything. Also, do not take advice from anyone that is not a Nimc staff (demand to see the ID card) to avoid complicating issues for you. You can contact nimc customer care for more clarification.

    5. Before I can suggest some natural remedies, I need to gather a few details from you. Erectile dysfunction (ED) can stem from various root causes such as diabetes, high blood pressure, infections, frequent masturbation, prostate issues, or excessive alcohol consumption.

      If you have blood sugar issues, it's crucial to control your blood sugar levels before considering any drugs or herbal treatments for ED. Do you have any of the issues mentioned above?

      Delete
    6. If you are a smoker then that is the source of your problem. If you drink alcohol regularly then that is also a source of your problem. Cutting out these two habits will get you on the road to an erection.

      There are claims the Maca, something you can buy at the natural health store will have you standing. I am not sure if the horny goat weed There gives an erection or just put one in the mood, you would have to research.

      If you have hbp or diabetes it could be the problem too. Getting those under control could help, but age is crucial here, over 60 it will be tougher than if you are 40. Unfortunately, men are very uneducated about their sexual health and indulge in things that seem cool or relaxing while damaging their sexual organs. An older friend told me mentally the desire is there, he really wants to do it but his body will not act on his desires. I am not a man so I have no clue how not being able to have an erection feels especially if you really want one. If you have a willing sex partner then try other things, go to the sex shop and see what is out there. Disabled ppl have had to use aids all their sex life to make it possible, open your mind to using aids. Both of you need to think about it a little differently and maybe do some things you never did before. Pleasure comes in different ways.

      If you want quality;go for either LG or Samsung,buy from a Thermocool showroom outlet(google one around you).

      E dey cost small;for a 43 inches should be above 300k or thereabout now.
