How to Make a Garlic and Olive Oil Earache Remedy

Earaches are no fun. They are also dangerous if left untreated. So before I share this recipe for my earache oil, I need to tell you to make sure you go to the doctor right away and get the medication you need. However, sometimes I have an earache in the middle of the night and the doctor’s office doesn’t open until the morning. I’ll apply the oil at night and see if I feel any better. I still go to the doctor, however, even if the earache is gone–and so should you–just to be safe.

Peel the fresh garlic cloves and crush them using the bottom of the glass or garlic press.

Place garlic in the dish and pour the olive oil over it.

Microwave for 15 seconds and let cool completely.

Place one drop of oil in the ear with the earache and let it absorb for 15 minutes while lying down on your side.

Facial Exercises to Tighten the Skin on Upper Eyelids

If you want to tone the skin on your face, plastic surgery is not the only option. Facial exercises can help tighten the skin on your upper eyelids. The difference between surgery and the exercises is that surgery gives immediate results, while exercises take time. If you have free time you can dedicate to eye exercises each week, you may achieve the tightest eyelids possible. If you’re unsure, do the exercises for a month or two and check for results.
