I have recently bought Emile Noel’s Organic Virgin Sesame oil because it is organic and cold-pressed.
I have been using it to in my hair by massaging it in my scalp and applying it to my hair once every week.
I also tried the ‘oil pulling’ method I talked about earlier to whiten my teeth because I have heard it worked out for so many people and some even said that the oil pulling improved their skin conditions.
But as I said I only bought this recently so I can’t really tell you how well it worked for me but I will do a post about it in future to update you guys.
If you want to include it in your diet, cook your food with sesame oil instead. Or you can add some of its seeds on your bread. You can even look up some recipes online to make an everyday snack from its seeds.
My mum usually includes sesame seeds in our daily Indian cuisine so I don’t need to make special snacks of them.

wise. But I was full of insecurities and my first few high school years weren’t the typical fun and out going days. There were some people who made me feel very bad so as I grew up I wanted to change how I feel about myself. I wanted to make myself stronger so I can deal with those kinda people and I wanted to feel beautiful inside-out.
