  • How Koreans Eat And Drink Their Way To Beautiful Skin

    By Anushka Sharma By Anushka Sharma How Koreans Eat And Drink Their Way To Beautiful Skin 20 June 2024 BEAUTY Advertisement Advertisement Koreans are renowned for their glowing, youthful complexions, and it’s no secret that diet plays a significant role in their skincare regimen. While the world often marvels at their intricate beauty routines, the foundation of their enviable skin lies in the foods and drinks they consume daily. From fermented vegetables to soothing teas, Korean cuisine is packed with nutrients that promote healthy, radiant skin. Here’s a closer look at some of the key elements of the Korean diet that contribute to beautiful skin. Kimchi: The Fermented Marvel Kimchi, a staple in Korean households, is a spicy, fermented cabbage dish that offers numerous benefits for the skin. This pungent dish is loaded with garlic, chili, and antioxidants that help fight the aging process and promote an even complexion. Selenium and other nutrients in kimchi enhance skin elasticity and clarity. Eaten with almost every meal, kimchi adds a flavorful punch to dishes while nourishing the skin from within. Despite its strong smell that can dominate your fridge, kimchi is a must-try for anyone looking to improve their skin health naturally. Seaweed Soup (Miyeok Guk): Nutrient-Rich Tradition Seaweed soup, known as Miyeok Guk, is a traditional dish consumed especially during breakfast and on birthdays. This custom stems from the practice of giving new mothers seaweed soup to replenish vital nutrients lost during childbirth. Rich in sulfates, seaweed has a soothing effect on the skin and helps maintain its elasticity. By choosing seaweed soup over sugary birthday treats, Koreans ensure their skin remains youthful and vibrant, even as they celebrate another year. Soybean Soup (Doenjang Jjigae): The Antioxidant Powerhouse Doenjang Jjigae, a beloved soybean soup, is a daily fixture in Korean meals. Made from fermented soybean paste, this soup is rich in vitamin E and antioxidants that protect the skin from UV damage and environmental stressors. The affordability and nutritional benefits of soybeans make this dish a popular choice, proving that effective skincare can also be cost-effective. Incorporating Doenjang Jjigae into your diet can help shield your skin from damage and maintain its natural glow. Barley Tea (Bori Cha): The Circulation Booster Barley tea, or Bori Cha, is a refreshing beverage enjoyed hot in the winter and cold in the summer. Known for its deep, nutty flavor, barley tea is consumed in large quantities by Koreans for its health benefits, particularly for the skin. This tea enhances circulation, which is crucial for keeping the skin firm and promoting cell regeneration. Swapping out your usual coffee for barley tea can significantly benefit your skin, making it a simple yet effective addition to your skincare routine. Fermented Rice Wine (Makgeolli): The Skin Brightener Makgeolli, a traditional Korean rice wine, is more than just a drink; it's a skincare elixir. Unlike other alcoholic beverages, Makgeolli is rich in vitamin B and amino acids, which help brighten the skin and even out the complexion. It's also beneficial for treating acne. The skincare benefits of Makgeolli have inspired a variety of beauty products, including sheet masks and serums. Enjoying Makgeolli not only adds a touch of indulgence to your meals but also contributes to healthier, more radiant skin. The secret to Koreans’ beautiful skin lies in their dietary choices, which are rich in nutrients that support skin health. From the antioxidant-rich kimchi and nutrient-packed seaweed soup to the circulation-boosting barley tea and skin-brightening Makgeolli, these foods and drinks are integral to maintaining a youthful, radiant complexion. By incorporating these elements into your diet, you can harness the power of Korean cuisine to achieve beautiful skin from the inside out.

  • Mercedes AMG Petronas Keep The Momentum Rolling After A Podium Scoring Hungarian GP

    Mercedes AMG Petronas Keep The Momentum Rolling After A Podium Scoring Hungarian GP By Anurag Sen Mercedes AMG Petronas Keep The Momentum Rolling After A Podium Scoring Hungarian GP 21 August 2025 LIFESTYLE Advertisement The Hungarian Grand Prix at the Hungaroring delivered one of Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team ’s most complete performances of the season. George Russell ’s charge to third place, paired with Kimi Antonelli ’s gritty drive to P10, brought another double-points finish and the team’s seventh podium of the year marking an important boost in their fight at the sharp end of the Constructors’ standings. The Budapest circuit, with its tight corners, flowing rhythm, and limited overtaking zones, demands precision in both strategy and execution. Russell, starting fourth on the grid, wasted no time in making his intentions clear. Into Turn 1, he swept around the outside of Lando Norris, signalling an afternoon where every decision and every pass would be critical. Mercedes opted for a Medium–Hard–Hard tyre strategy for Russell, a choice that kept him competitive against the high-degradation challenges of the Hungaroring. His pace in the middle stint kept the pressure on Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc, and in the closing laps, he made a calculated move to get ahead. When Leclerc later received a time penalty for speeding in the pit lane, Russell’s podium finish was confirmed. Antonelli’s race told a quieter but equally impressive story. Lining up 15th, the young Italian drove with a measured touch, balancing pace and tyre preservation over the long runs. Running Medium to Hard and stretching his final stint close to 50 laps, he found himself defending against fresher-tyred rivals in the final stages. Holding off advances from Isack Hadjar and Lewis Hamilton, Antonelli’s performance reflected maturity and racecraft well beyond his years helped by the team’s return to its earlier rear suspension configuration, restoring balance and confidence in the car. Team Principal Toto Wolff described the result as “a step forward,” crediting both drivers and the renewed stability in the W16. With no major aerodynamic upgrades planned for the remainder of the season, the focus shifts to maximising every detail of the current package vital in the tight battle for second place in the Constructors’ Championship. Trackside Engineering Director Andrew Shovlin highlighted how well the strategy came together, pointing to Russell’s controlled pursuit of Leclerc and Antonelli’s calm, calculated defence as proof of the team’s growing strength in both pace and adaptability. “It was a performance that set a strong tone for the second half of the season,” he said. Next on the calendar is Zandvoort, where the banked curves and unpredictable coastal weather will present a very different kind of test. Whereas Budapest rewarded patience and precise tyre work, the Dutch Grand Prix will call for versatility and the ability to react quickly to shifting conditions. The race in Budapest may not have been the year’s most chaotic spectacle, but for Mercedes, it was exactly the kind of clean, disciplined execution that builds momentum. In a championship where the smallest margins can tip the balance, the qualities shown at the Hungaroring could prove decisive in the battles to come.

From scalp to skin, WishCare delivers clean, effective care, now exclusively on Nykaa . Get to the root of your beauty woes with WishCare’s three must-haves on Nykaa—whether it’s persistent hair fall, pesky dandruff, or oily skin that never settles, these power-packed formulas deliver visible results, fast. When it comes to personal care, one size rarely fits all. That’s why WishCare, known for its ingredient-led, solution-focused formulas, has launched three high-performance essentials on Nykaa that are tailor-made for your most stubborn skin and scalp concerns. From fighting chronic hair fall to banishing dandruff and balancing oily skin under the sun, these products deliver serious results backed by clean formulations and glowing reviews. Let’s start at the top, your scalp. If your hairbrush is starting to look like a thatched roof, this gentle yet effective shampoo could be the intervention you need. Powered by a potent blend of rice water, multi-peptides, rosemary, and caffeine, this shampoo is a scalp-friendly, sulfate-free solution that strengthens hair from the roots while promoting growth and reducing breakage. Its lightweight formula produces a rich lather without drying out your scalp, making it ideal for oily to combination scalps. What users love? “My hair feels stronger after just a week,” says one reviewer. Others swear by its mild fragrance and how it helps reduce both dandruff and hair fall. At just ₹495, this is the kind of everyday essential your shower shelf deserves. Furthermore, when it comes to flakes and itchiness it’s more than just an inconvenience, they can tank your confidence. WishCare’s dandruff-control shampoo tackles the issue from the roots with AHA and BHA, two exfoliants that gently lift away buildup and dead skin while maintaining your scalp’s moisture balance. Unlike harsh anti-dandruff shampoos, this one hydrates as it exfoliates, keeping sensitivity at bay and restoring scalp health with regular use. It’s especially ideal for those who suffer from recurring dandruff but hate the drying effects of typical formulas. Bonus points for being vegan, cruelty-free, and sulfate-free, proving that gentle doesn’t mean ineffective. And once your scalp feels balanced and refreshed, it's time to turn your attention to your skin, because WishCare’s expertise doesn’t just stop at hair. Which brings us to WishCare’s sunscreen which isn’t just sun protection, it’s skincare. Infused with 5% niacinamide, Zinc PCA, ceramides, CICA, and oat extract, this fluid SPF offers a weightless, non-greasy, and completely white-cast-free experience. It sinks into oily and acne-prone skin like a dream, mattifying instantly while improving your skin barrier over time. It’s rare to find a sunscreen that plays well under makeup, doesn’t clog pores, and still provides broad-spectrum SPF 50 PA++++ protection, but this one checks all those boxes. Reviewers rave about how it “feels like skincare” and how it’s helped calm breakouts while keeping skin shine-free all day. What is astonishing is that all these three products are vegan, cruelty-free, and free from sulfates and parabens, proving that clean beauty can be powerful too. With each priced at an affordable ₹495 and backed by Nykaa’s trusted platform, you don’t have to compromise on results, ethics, or price. Whether you're looking to stop hairfall in its tracks, clear out stubborn dandruff, or finally find a sunscreen that doesn’t make you greasy, WishCare’s power trio on Nykaa is your shortcut to visible, lasting results.

  • The story of the suicide forest: Japan’s suicide forest

    by Aishwarya by Aishwarya The story of the suicide forest: Japan’s suicide forest 1 November 2022 TRAVEL Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement What does come to your mind, when you hear the word “forest”? Well, for obvious reasons, you would think about lush green space, a ton of trees, breezy and cool, and a very peaceful place. A forest that isn’t known for its peaceful atmosphere, but rather a disturbing truth, is a weird thing, right? There is a forest in Japan that has the reputation and recognition for having the second-highest number of suicides happening there. It gets even more spooky when the locals over there claim the forest to be possessed by the spirits of the suicide victims. This is the story of a forest in Japan, named Aokigahara Forest, located northwest of Mount Fuji. The entrance of the forest warns its visitors, to “Think carefully about your children, your family. Your life is a precious gift from your parents. Quietly think once more about your parents, siblings or children. Please don’t suffer alone, and first, reach out.” These are the words that are adorned at the entrance of Aokigahara Forest. This forest is globally known as the Suicide Forest. It is the second most famous place for suicides, the first being the Golden Gate Bridge. The forest is spread across a huge area of 35 sq km, giving it the name “Sea of Trees”. It is believed that getting lost in the forest is a very common thing here, and the way out of it is an impossible mission. With a story so dark, it is pretty common to have a reputation for it being possessed. According to Japanese mythology, the forest is said to be home to Yurei- which means ghosts of the dead. As per the official statements , around 105 bodies were discovered in the forest, in the year 2003. Most of the bodies were severely decomposed and/or eaten by wild animals. Due to its story, many Japanese spiritualists believe that the suicides have permeated the trees, which results in paranormal activities in the forest. People often lose their way inside the forest, as the technologies and devices such as compasses and mobile phones fail here. It is due to the deposits of magnetic iron created by the volcanic salt in this region. The devices start behaving weirdly and show wrong directions. Now, this is the reason, it's an impossible mission to find your way out of this forest. People also believe that the bodies of suicide victims should not be left alone in the forest. They believe that it is bad luck for the victims and often their spirits cry and scream for help, and also move their bodies. Now, we don’t know how true it is, but the belief of some people cannot be ignored just because it isn’t proven. Keeping this in the mind, the forest workers bring them back and keep them in a special room at the local forest police station. Many experts have researched why people choose to die in this forest. Almost three decades ago, a Japanese psychiatrist interviewed some Aokigahara suicide survivors and wrote that a key reason for their selection was that “they believed that they would be able to die successfully without being noticed.” Another psychiatrist, Dr Yoshitomo Takahashi, believed that movies and media reports have played a role in influencing people. He also said that they might have wanted to “share the same place with others and belong to the same group”. The nation has been taking steps to curb suicides, over the years. Security cameras are being set at the entrances, hoping to track those who walk inside, according to Imasa Watanabe of the Yamanashi prefectural government. The local government has also opted for suicide prevention methods, such as raising the bridge rails' height, having volunteered to talk to and convince suicidal visitors, increasing police patrolling and discouraging movies and TV shows to not promote the forest as a suicide forest. With a reputation so dark, Aokigahara Forest has failed to be peaceful and beautiful, as a forest should be. We need to know that, suicide doesn’t end your problem but rather removes you and replaces your family & loved ones, in your problem. There is a forest in Japan that has the reputation and recognition for having the second-highest number of suicides happening there. It gets even more spooky when the locals over there claim the forest to be possessed by the spirits of the suicide victims. #SuicideForest #AokigaharaForest #Suicide #MentalHealth #Japan #SeaofTrees #TravelFacts SEARCH The Fashion Capitals Of Asia: Exploring Style Beyond Borders TRAVEL Unveiling Delights Of Hotel Palazzo Versace Gem Of Dubai TRAVEL 7 Abandoned Cities In India And Abroad That Are Too Beautiful To Be Forgotten TRAVEL airBaltic Makes Global Debut On World’s Safest Airlines List TRAVEL Revolutionizing Air Travel: Qatar Airways Introduces AI-Powered Booking With Sama TRAVEL POPULAR POSTS Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement By Shriniwas Kodape The Peninsula Bangkok: Grace Beside The Chao Phraya 4 October 2025 TRAVEL By Shriniwas Kodape 64 Floors Up: Lebua At State Tower Perspective 4 October 2025 TRAVEL By Shriniwas Kodape Four Seasons Bangkok: Where The River Holds Its Breath 17 September 2025 TRAVEL By Shriniwas Kodape Neon, Smoke, And Chili Fire: A Night In Bangkok’s Chinatown 2 September 2025 TRAVEL RELATED POSTS Advertisement

  • 5 Ways to Always Look CLASSY

    5 Ways to Always Look CLASSY by Tanvi Punia 5 Ways to Always Look CLASSY 16 July 2021 FASHION Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement Classy style never goes out of fashion. It’s the biggest compliment when someone describes a person’s style as being classy. It’s definitely what everyone should strive to be. Classy style doesn’t always have to be boring as one can always incorporate classier trendy pieces into their looks. And of course, there’s so much more to being a classy person than just the way one looks. Here, the prime focus is just on how to look classy. Through this article, one can learn 5 easy ways to always look classy. So, let’s get started! Keep Clothes Pristine One should keep their clothes looking pristine and clean at all times. What is meant by this is that a person doesn’t always have to go out and spend hundreds of dollars getting really expensive clothes. Instead, even if the person is wearing something that’s relatively cheaper and they present themselves well and wear them right, they can make for a very classy outfit. One should always have their clothes crease-free. Balance the Outfits One can limit the amount of skin they show by not showing too much skin everywhere. Well, it is completely okay to wear something slightly revealing but the rule that most people like to go by is to balance it out. So, if a person is wearing something slightly revealing on the top, they can balance it out with something a bit more conservative on the bottom such as pants that can cover their legs. One can also wear skinny fit and show off their figure but it is much classier to cover up the bottom half and vice versa. Minimal and Natural Make-up Obviously, everyone would still do a few things to enhance their looks but one should not go overboard. With make-up, the three things to focus on would be the skin, eyebrows, and eyelashes. Everyone’s skin should always look nice and clean. There’s nothing worse than a cakey foundation look. In this day and age, everyone is going for a more natural, glowy look so lighter make-up should be preferred. Eyebrows definitely frame one’s face. If someone has messy eyebrows, no matter how nice their clothes or hair are, their face won’t look put together. As soon as they’ll have nice and tidy eyebrows, it will enhance their overall look. Wear Dainty Jewellery With everyday jewellery, it is always classier to go with dainty jewellery that looks high-quality. One can even wear them in the shower and not worry about them getting tarnished. So, having a few pieces that are really dainty and of good quality would last through the years and would definitely give a classier look overall. Wear Comfortable Clothes There’s nothing classy about wearing something uncomfortable and constantly keep adjusting. It’s a sure thing that everyone would have experienced these clothes that look really beautiful but are a bit uncomfortable. It just makes them look not very confident with themselves and this constant fidgeting is just not classy. So, one should choose their clothing items very consciously. So, these were the 5 ways of always looking classy. Incorporating them into daily life can make anyone look classy!

  • Makeup Therapy: How Bijal Chavda Transforms Beauty Into A Soothing Art, Creating Calm With Color And Unique Niche In Beauty Content

    By Sakshi Batra By Sakshi Batra Makeup Therapy: How Bijal Chavda Transforms Beauty Into A Soothing Art, Creating Calm With Color And Unique Niche In Beauty Content 3 March 2025 BEAUTY Advertisement Advertisement Painting Her Way To The Top In a world brimming with influencers, Bijal Chavda stands out with her unique story and soothing artistry. A self-taught makeup artist turned MTV Winged winner, Bijal has carved a niche for herself in the digital world, spreading calmness and creativity through her makeup content on Instagram and YouTube. Her journey, born out of confusion and self-discovery, is nothing short of inspiring. Let’s dive into the story of this Mumbai-born powerhouse and how she became the queen of her craft. From Confusion To Clarity: The Birth Of A Dream Bijal grew up in the bustling city of Mumbai, where creativity and culture thrive. With a supportive family backing her every move, she explored various interests, from mastering karate to excelling in mehendi art. However, it wasn’t until after her graduation that Bijal found her true calling. “I was always keen on makeup, but I was confused about what to do next. Then I decided to pursue it as a career,” she shares. This pivotal decision marked the beginning of her journey into the world of beauty and makeup. The Turning Point: Mtv Winged Bijal’s life took a dramatic turn when she participated in MTV Winged, the first-ever hair and makeup reality show hosted by Gaelyn Mendonca and presented by Lakme Academy. Competing against some of the most talented artists in the country, Bijal faced daily challenges that tested her creativity, skill, and resilience. “Starting with 15-20 participants, the competition narrowed down to the top 10. Each day brought new challenges and incredible guest mentors,” she recalls. Emerging as the winner of the show was a game-changing moment that shaped her destiny. Lakme even sponsored her cosmetology course, giving her professional skills a solid foundation. Learning From The Best While Bijal’s journey began with self-teaching, she credits her inspiration to iconic figures like Nikkie Tutorials , James Charles , Jefree Star and Shreya Jain . Watching their videos fuelled her passion and motivated her to create content that resonates with her audience. However, the road wasn’t always smooth. “There were times when I felt demotivated, comparing my content to others with better quality or more engaging videos. But I reminded myself that I’m doing this for me, not for others. That mindset keeps me sorted,” she says. Skincare Wisdom And Makeup Minimalism Bijal’s content goes beyond makeup artistry, she’s also an advocate for uncomplicated skincare. Her advice? “Keep it simple: cleanser, serum, and a patch test for new products. Focus on two key features on your face. For me, it’s concealing my under-eyes and adding lip tint and blush. I don’t even use foundation, and I’m okay with imperfections showing through.” This approach not only makes her relatable but also empowers her followers to embrace their natural beauty. Advice To Budding Influencers For those looking to make it big in the influencer world, Bijal’s advice is golden. “Be committed to your work and consistent in creating high-quality content. Don’t just chase trends; always do what keeps you motivated. It’s not about the number of followers but about the reach and impact you have on people.” Dreams And Aspirations Bijal’s journey is far from over. She dreams of collaborating with more luxury brands and eventually launching her own brand. Her commitment to consistency and her passion for innovation promises a bright future. The Calm Creator Bijal Chavda’s story is one of passion, perseverance, and purpose. From a confused graduate to a celebrated makeup artist, her journey reminds us that success lies in following your dreams and staying true to yourself. As she continues to create satisfying, soothing content for her ever-growing audience, Bijal’s artistry is a testament to the power of resilience and self-belief.
