5 ways to kick-start your CAT preparation

MBA prepration

I have been preparing for M.B.A. entrance exams since 2 years now and shall soon be joining a decent b-school and therefore, I think I am in a position to share with you my opinion on how you can plan to start your preparation to crack these exams.

M.B.A. stands for Masters of Business Administration and is currently the most sought-after “Masters” degree in India. Although most of the colleges, including the government colleges like I.I.M.s, offer a Diploma degree in Management whereas the I.I.Ts, X.I.M.B., Narsee Monjee Mumbai e.t.c.  offers an M.B.A. degree, there is not much difference in the curriculum. In the past 5 years, innumerable number of students as well as professionals, from varied backgrounds such as Business, Engineering and Technology, Science, Commerce and even Arts and Medicine, have opted out from their own field of study to pursue MBA.

5 ways to kick-start your CAT preparation

Just a month ago, I appeared for the Group Discussion and personal interview test of an esteemed b-school and guess what, I was accompanied by a doctor and two Charter Accountants, among a bunch of Commerce and Engineering graduates. Hence, you can already imagine that the entire process is, in a way, getting tougher and tougher every year! At present we have a whooping 5,20,000 MBA students passing out of the b-schools in our country this year. Needless to say, due to this over-crowding, the level of difficulty of the various management entrances such as CAT, XAT, IIFT etc are increasing every year!

So, how should you plan and go ahead with your preparation? How do you manage your most valuable resource, which is time, to reap yourself the maximum benefits? Let’s see how:

  • Clarify your purpose for doing an MBA:

Before you start off with any study material and roll out your preparation process, take some time out and ask yourself, why you want to do an MBA? Let me tell you something. Your panelist may not ask you to introduce yourself, but no panelist in any Indian b-school will ever skip this one question: Why MBA? You may belong to any background, let’s say Pharmaceuticals, but why you are willing to leave your own field and change over to Business Studies is something you should be extremely clear about! Jot down those points. An MBA degree is rewarding, stimulating and ensures a professional with high remuneration, but the relevance of MBA in your career is what you should be able to explain with sound logic.

5 ways to kick-start your CAT preparation
Graduation hat and ladders leading to success on grunge background. Education concept

  • Start with a mock test:

Let me assume you have not yet started your preparation. So why am I being crazy and asking you to take a mock test now? Because ALL MANAGEMENT ENTRANCES ARE APTITUDE TESTS! Aptitude tests are based on what you have learned in Mathematics till class X, your logical abilities and critical thinking, your innate ability to take the optimum best decision and your verbal knowledge and analysis power. We must remember that most of these qualities we already possess by the virtue of our schooling, reading habit etc and so, we can only polish them in order to stay ahead of others.

So, with absolutely zero preparation when you take a mock test, you get an idea of your strengths and weaknesses. There are plenty of websites that offer you free mock tests. Take one of them with complete honesty. This is the first step in your preparation for these exams.

  •  Concept building:

Now that you have a clear idea of your strengths and weaknesses, I suggest you start focusing on your weak area.

If you are weak in the Quant section:

If you have not enrolled in any institute for CAT and OMET (Other Management Entrance Exam) preparation, grab the Quant material of any well-known institute as well as keep a Quant book, such as books by Sarvesh Verma and Arun Sharma with you. Then comes the most vital part, READ ALL THE THEORY related to a topic before delving straight into the exercise. This is extremely important to build a strong base. Then go over to the exercise.

5 ways to kick-start your CAT preparation

If you are weak in Reading Comprehension and Verbal Ability:

This section is largely dependent on your exposure to the world of English language throughout your life, your reading habit so far and if you can interpret a passage after you read it. But if you do not have a reading habit, you can start reading a quality English newspaper daily. This will not only improve your command over English but also improve your general knowledge, which is extremely important for SNAP, IIFT,  XAT etc. You can pick up a novel by any good author and try to finish it within a week. YouTube videos on discussion on social issues in English, also helps a lot.

But most importantly, if you are weak in this section, you MUST practice at least two comprehensions a day, ten Verbal Ability questions and carry out a thorough analysis of your mistakes.

If you are weak in Logical Reasoning:

You can crack this section if you make online puzzle solving your hobby! Solve riddles, math puzzles whenever you get time. As you do this regularly, your brain automatically gets used to find ways to analyse the complications of a puzzle much faster by disintegrating the problem into simpler parts. Practice around 5 questions of logical reasoning every day from actual CAT papers, institute study materials or from online preparation sites to get an edge over others. Analyse, where you went wrong and why.

If you are weak in Data Interpretation:

Data Interpretation is all about being smart with numbers and calculation and being able to see through data and the mobility of data. You can start with learning some standard calculations such as the squares and cubes up to 25, square roots and cube roots from 1 to 10, percentages etc. You can go through any material or the Data Interpretation book by Arun Sharma, from where you must practice at least 3-4 Data Interpretation questions at least 3 or 4 days a week.

If you are weak in Decision making:

Decision making is the trickiest part in XAT test and I have seen a lot of my fellow aspirants, who are 95 percentilers in Quant or Logical Reasoning, to struggle haplessly in this section. Decision making is the innate ability to take the optimum best decision in a crisis situation. I say “optimum” because the other options may not be wrong, but they may not be the best. So, how do you judge? There are some golden rules: The decision you take should never be too lenient or too aggressive or sound too people-pleasing and MUST be the best decision that seem even with respect to all the stake-holders in question. In short, balanced.

But that’s easier said, than done. Hence, I suggest you to get hold of reasoning book by Piyush Bhardwaj, published by Arihant Publishers or solve decision making questions from actual XAT papers.

Now, you must try your mighty best to practice all the sections every day, with more emphasis on your weak areas.

5 ways to kick-start your CAT preparation

  • Time Management:

CAT is no rocket science! You can solve all the 100 questions if you sit with it the whole day. But the real challenge is to solve the questions within the stipulated time, keeping your mind relaxed and without panicking. And hence, time management is the MOST IMPORTANT factor.

Let’s talk about the quant section; you are given 60 minutes to solve 34 questions. So you have basically 1.76 minutes to solve all the questions in this section. If you leave out 16 questions and solve 20, still you are left with only 3 minutes to solve each. Hence, you should focus on two things; one, you must time yourself and train yourself to solve each quant question in 2 minutes time and you must pick out the easiest ones and solve them first. Come on, you are not given Brownie points to solve harder questions isn’t it!

As of reading comprehension, you must take 15 minutes for each passage; don’t rush through it, read and analyse, because it is more important to get your answers correct than to get a bunch of wrong answers.

Similarly, you must train yourself to solve each Logical Reasoning or Data Interpretation question under 10 -12 minutes.

As for Decision Making, it is very important to read and analyse the case-let and understand what the question is actually asking before answering it. Hence rushing through this section is a very bad idea. In XAT, if you can answer around 12-14 decision making questions correctly, congratulations, you have secured above 92 percentile in this section.

  • Mock Tests and Mock Analysis:

Perhaps, the most important part of this entire preparation phase is taking mock tests or more importantly, mock analysis. I can guarantee you; you will learn a lot more from mock analysis than you will ever learn from any other sources. Take 2 mocks every month, during your initial phase of preparation and 2- 3 days for the full analysis of every mock. Go through all your mistakes, solve all your unanswered questions and even see through the ones you got correct. If necessary, make notes or copy down any new concept that you learn through mock analysis.

During the later phase, you must take 5-6 mock tests in every month but take care to see, that you don’t skip a mock analysis before going over to the next mock. Before you face CAT, you must have taken 15 – 18 mocks and have completed their full analysis. Moreover, your mock test and mock analysis must cover all the entrance exams you are aiming for, not only CAT.

I must mention here, that during the initial months, your mock results may be miserable, but you must not give up. Remember, only proper analysis of mocks can improve your percentiles and with time, you will see how easily you soar and get a score of above 100- 120 in mock tests.

5 ways to kick-start your CAT preparation

I suggest you maintain a diary or a separate folder in your computer where you keep a screenshot of all your mock results and analyse your performance.

I would like to conclude by saying that the preparation of management entrances such as CAT, XAT should be made into a habit and cannot be achieved by the work of one day or one month. Regular reading of good novels, English newspapers, critically analyzing the newspaper or magazine articles, juggling the quant formulae in your mind when you are free as well as solving math puzzles daily are some of the immensely valuable habits that can make you crack these exams easily as well as mould you into a more qualified individual.

Chocolates

Founded in 2004, Republica Del Cacao aims to preserve the small indigenous Arriba cacao farms owned by families from different regions in Ecuador. Made from nothing but cacao, cocoa butter, and sugar, each bite gives a raw taste of the distinct cacao flavour of each region.

This small, recently founded bar-to-bean chocolate company hails from a chocolatier couple in Canada. They also specialise in using only top quality cacao beans, organic cane sugar, and cocoa butter in order to consistently produce tastes that are “true to the bean.” They procure rare and complex cacao beans from around the world to bring out the subtle notes of each unique bean’s flavour profile.

Puccini Bomboni

Handmade Dutch chocolates are combined with flavours like rhubarb, fig marzipan, and different peppers. Puccini Bomboni is a specialty shop with three different locations all found in Amsterdam. The Dutch chocolatier also have a fine selection of sugar-free chocolates.

Malagos

Davao City, Philippines is home to the Malagos tradition of chocolate making. Malagos Chocolate is famous for the ‘tree-to-bar’ method, which they use to process their single origin cacao products. Sun Star reports all of this is showcased at the Malagos Garden Resort and Chocolate Museum in Davao.

Richard Donnelly Fine Chocolates

Santa Cruz, California-based Richard Donnelly combines rich Belgian and French chocolates with flavours like saffron, cardamom, lavender, and Earl Grey tea. He preserves the quality of his unusual creations by producing only 50 pounds of chocolate per day.

Que Bo!

Celebrity Chef José Ramón Castillo uses only organic and locally sourced ingredients such as mangoes chillies, guava, and cinnamon – traditional Mexican flavours combined with the finest cacao. Que Bo! currently has five locations in Mexico City.

Belvas

Brussels is home to the largest number of chocolate factories in the world. Now it’s also home to northern Europe’s first organic chocolatier, Belvas. Their smooth blend of Belgian dark and milk chocolate is organic, fair trade, sugar free, and even gluten free – a must try for the gluten-allergic cacao purist.

Alprose

A list of places to find the most wonderful chocolate on the planet would be remiss without Switzerland. PartyPoker in their article ‘3 Things You Need to See and Do in Switzerland’ state that the country is home to the Alprose Chocolate Factory and Museum. This museum showcases the country’s long tradition of making confectioneries. Tours end with free samples of the diverge range of chocolates from Alprose, Switzerland’s largest chocolate manufacturer.

Teuscher

In Zurich, Switzerland, you’ll find the headquarters of Teuscher. This company has an 80-year old tradition of using only the most expensive all-natural ingredients to make 100 varieties of chocolate.

Each one is free from chemicals, preservatives, or additives. In The National Geographic’s article ‘The 10 Best Chocolatiers in the World’ claim that they specialize in a creamy-cantered champagne truffle that is most definitely worth the euros.

Sprüngli

This almost 200-year old chocolatier offers traditional luxurious Swiss chocolates. With numerous locations in Zurich, they specialize in the Luxemburgerli, their signature macaron, as well as their grand cru truffles.

If there is anything on earth which can be counted as a bare necessity apart from food, clothes and shelter, then it’s water. This gift of God covers about 70% of the Earth’s surface and comes with a bounty of benefits for every living organism on Earth. The magical bond between two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom has given rise to a wonder liquid which is loaded with essential minerals such as Calcium, Magnesium, Sodium, Potassium etc as well as is the single-most thing that can prevent kidney problems, clears your skin, prevents obesity, removes all the waste and toxic substances from your body, helps in digestion, prevents constipation, improves your immunity power and the list goes on! And most importantly, it’s free! So next time you grab a glass of water and gulp it down out of habit, wait for a moment and think of all the goodness your are adding to your body and be thankful for this blessing.water

As with almost everything around, the quantity of water you drink in a day is very individualistic and is highly dependent on your body weight, B.M.I. and other factors such as any particular disorder you are suffering from. While 8 glasses per day is the minimum, you can definitely go beyond that since the more you hydrate yourself, the healthier you will be. Now, this is one substance that we constantly intake and is absolutely devoid of any taste! So, if you are on the lookout to spice things up a little, just add a few sprigs of mint, or a slice of orange, or squeeze a little lemon or do whatever it takes to drink as much water as you can.

Apart from the benefits that have already been addressed, we enlist the top ten benefits that this wonder liquid can provide you –

  • Improves digestion and constipation

Drinking lots of water will boost your metabolism and maintain the proper functioning of your gastrointestinal tract. When this happens, your body can break up food into finer particles and your stomach efficiently uses the bile juice from your pancreas, thus preventing any chances of suffering from acidity.

Inadequate water causes extreme dehydration which triggers your colon to extract water from the stools accumulated in your body, making the stools hard and very difficult to pass. Thus, water saves you from the problem of constipation.

But there are certain rules! You must not drink water while you are having your meals. You may drink before and after your meals but when you drink water along with having meals, this water interferes with the digestion process and inhibits food particles from getting broken down into smaller particles. And as for constipation problem, have a glass full of warm water first thing in the morning and it will definitely help you to have a better bowel movement.

  • Helps in weight loss

Sounds unbelievable right?! Or maybe you have come across lifestyle blogs asking you to drink a glass of water before a meal but didn’t really consider it seriously! Well, if you are somebody struggling to lose weight this may actually help you!  This zero calorie drink with absolutely no side-effects fills your stomach and suppresses your tendency of binge eating, resulting in consuming fewer calories.

Health Benefits of Drinking more than 8 glasses of water everydayMoreover, it enhances the rate of burning fat within your body as well as degeneration of fat cells.

Sshhh! Want to know a secret about weight loss? Grind fresh flax seeds in a mixer till the seeds become dust. Mix one teaspoon of the ground flax seeds dust in a glass full of warm water and have it as the first thing in the morning! This will boost your metabolism greatly as well as your bowel movement. All this will definitely aid in weight loss!

  • Effect treatment for headaches

A recent study by a renowned institute of neurology shows that dehydration is a leading cause of persistent headache and migraine. This happens because of a sharp drop in the volume of blood due to lack of water, which causes lesser amount of blood and oxygen to flow to the blood vessels of our brains. This causes the blood vessels to dilate and cause continuous pain.

Drinking plenty of water will help maintain the fluidity of blood in your bodies and proper blood circulation leading to a decrease in the intensity of headaches. Also, indigestion and acidity is often known to cause headache which can also be controlled by drinking plenty of water.

  • Improves kidney function

Health Benefits of Drinking more than 8 glasses of water everydayYour kidneys are the filters in your body and perform numerous crucial functions such as passing away toxic wastes through urine and also filtering blood before sending it back to the heart. Since flushing out wastes is the main function of kidneys, hence obviously we need to drink a lot of water to keep them healthy and help them in efficient flushing out of wastes. Drinking insufficient quantity of water is the major reason for kidney stones and dark colored urine, signifying kidney disease.

  • Acts as a natural anti-ageing remedy!

Health Benefits of Drinking more than 8 glasses of water everydayIs she mad? You might be thinking this right now! But to bust your disbelief I must tell you that before you reach out to expensive anti-ageing creams and complicated D.I.Y.s, drinking enough quantity of water should actually be counted as the first step towards your anti-ageing skin care regime! This one particular moisturizer that nature provides you is free of cost! And found in abundance! Water washes away the toxic wastes which are responsible for skin inflammations and acne. Try drinking 10 glasses of water every day and this will definitely help to keep your skin fresh and glowing.

  • Boosts intelligence

Sounds shocking right? Recent observations have proved that there is a strong link between water and cognitive ability in a person. Just like every cell and body tissue needs to stay well hydrated to function properly, so does your brain. Mental performance and memory power can skyrocket when your brain is hydrated enough to function properly.

  • Strengthens immune system

Water contains plenty of oxygen and so drinking lots of water will ensure that all the cells and tissues in your body are well oxygenated, which in turn will make your muscles and organs work better. Your internal system works best when you have your internals fir and healthy.

Moreover, water promotes the production of lymph which is responsible to circulate W.B.C. (white blood corpuscles) and nutrients from the thymus gland (a lymphoid gland at the base of your vertebral column) and your bone marrow to all parts of your body. All these functions are inter-related and help profoundly in strengthening your immune system.

  • Prevents sprains and muscle spasm

Regularly indulging in too much coffee, alcoholic beverage, sodas and black tea makes your body chronically dehydrated. When your body has very less water, toxins accumulate and circulate in the blood, causing painful spasms and inflammation. Drinking enough water will lubricate your bone joints and keep your muscles elastic, thus keeping sprains and spasms at bay.

  • Water uplifts your mood

Health Benefits of Drinking more than 8 glasses of water everydayTension, stress, confusion and depression – everything has been found to score down when you have high water content in your body. Although the exact reason is yet to be known, but water has been found to ease anxiety and nervousness and help you to focus more on your work. Try and keep a check on the color of your urine. A light color of urine indicates a good level of dehydration.

  • Fights sickness

Health Benefits of Drinking more than 8 glasses of water everydayDrinking enough water profoundly helps you to fight common cold, cough and running nose. Try drinking a glass of warm water mixed with lemon juice and a little honey every morning. This will not only aid your weight loss but also increase the level of calcium in your body and keep cough and cold at bay.

Well, even these ten points cannot sum up the immense benefits that water provides you. But in today’s life of unending competition, rushing and deadlines, our concern for health has taken a back-seat. Most of the times we are so busy with our work, that the only time it occurs to us that we should drink more and more water is when we notice the darkened color of our urine, or we have tidbits of bloody mucous coming out of our nose or when one fine day, we realize that our skin has lost the freshness and glow that it used to have. Hence, I am going to list some very easy ways that can help you in the long run :

  • Always keep your bottle of water nearby. Always. So, that you can keep sipping some from time to time.
  • Keep a track of how much water you are currently drinking and how much you should drink. Chalk it out in your mind that in every two hours you are going to have a glass of water.
  • Do you have a desk in your office or a white-board where you can attach to-do lists? Well then, use it to remind yourself to do this task.
  • Nowadays, we have mobile apps for everything right? In fact, there is a very helpful app called Water Your Body which takes into account your weight, B.M.I, habits and accordingly decides how much water you need to drink. It will remind you to drink water in every hour in case you forget.

I have tried sharing all the knowledge that I have in this topic with you all. I request you to share any another benefit that you know about and your take on this article.

Selfless and charitable attitudes , give birth to sweet vehement and uncontaminated relations which are deep-rooted and are in for the long-haul. The abrupt desires of instantaneous interest accomplishments of society compel us to believe that human relations are Bizzare….!!
You eat, laugh, share secrets and are conjoined with them through hearts and spend major hours of the day with them, and one day, unfortunately those lovable sweet memories…those people become a part of your past… Outlandishly pathetic!! According to Mr. Franklin Roosevelt, former president of America to keep the human knots subsisting, people of varying communities will have to learn , how to maintain peace and harmony in the world.HUMAN KNOTS!!

If expectations are minimized in the world , then the deterioration of bonds shall reduce. A person deprived of reliable links is unable to express his or her’s afflictions or anguishments to anyone, axiomatically, he falls in the trap of mental illness and starts staying depressed…So dear pals …it is inexpedient, to turn out into an anti-social element and try to survive in this cacophonous society… Concludingly, all I wanna convey is- STAY HAPPY!! STAY AFFECTIONATED AND STAY LIAISON-IZING!!

FEELING WRETCHED: Don't be so...!

It happens many times in life, when your soul feel detached and dejected from the world… Many times it happens that we our under the grip of some kind of consternation and trepidation, that something inauspicious or ominous may happen. An abrupt burst of emotions, a feeling of downheartedness, displays the lack of confidence in our personality. Even if there is an evident reason…still it is a sign of glitched confidence and negative vision. A person’s confidence shakes up at that very moment and he gets a amorted feel when he loses his belief over THE SUPREME POWER…

FEELING WRETCHED: Don't be so...!

In HINDU MYTHOLOGY, it is said that when a soul has been through eighty four lacs different lives of creatures , then he has been rewarded with a life of a human being. If he has revolved around this vast circle of lives, still if he doubts over the existence of Supreme power, then no one can be a bigger blockhead than him. One is blessed to be a human being and that is a biggest and distinct reason, than one should be charged with hope, ambition and confidence. The time which is gifted to you in the form of life should not be wasted, instead of this, every second or micro second should be utilized . Second thing to talk upon is the unknown fright and dismay that is caused. There is no such thing in the universe , which can be said to as a portent. What’s happening or what is going to happen in future, is inescapable…This  is so because.. it involves the wish of the ALMIGHTY…!! So any kind of anxiousness or fear is futile. When  one develops belief over the justice done by God, then his soul is filled with immense pleasure. We get to know about God’s affection, that whatever he has created in the universe, it is quirky in it’s own way, even if it is the stones  and pebbles of the path; each and every single thing on the universe is blessed with some or the other unique quality… and the whole package of qualities is a human being in comparison to other existing creatures of the earth. If a human being is enlightened with such knowledge , that he is blessed he is blessed  is blessed.

One of the most abundantly researched and sought after essential oils, tea tree oil has proven to be no less than a miracle for a wide variety of uses. The reasons being multiple; it serves not only the beauty problems in women but also has strong anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory as well as anti-cancer properties which have earned this essential oil the honor of being a “wonder drug”.

But do you know about the illustrious history of this miracle oil?

In 1732, Captain James Cook took his famous trip around the world and landed at last, in Australia. Upon reaching the land, he brewed a cup of fresh tea from the leaves of a particular kind of tree which revitalized his energy, gave him strength and refreshed his mental faculties. He named it the “tea tree”! His appreciation and wonder for this miracle tree was confirmed by the aboriginals who mentioned that they have been using it as a medicine since time immemorial! Then Captain Cook took back an ounce of the oil extracted from the tree leaves and had a physician test it who later confirmed the amazing healing properties that the oil possesses.

Here, I would like to share all the benefits of tea tree oil that I know about and how you can use it to reap the maximum benefits. Want to know how? Then read on!

The usual safety concerns:

All tea tree oils are powerful and this particular oil we are talking about is no exception. The smell is very strong, similar to that of eucalyptus and a few drops, around 3-4, are enough to serve your purpose.

The surprising benefits of tea tree oil

  • For acne

How many times has acne given you sleepless lights? I am sure the answer is “more than once” for both boys and girls! And I have seen even mommies worry the heck out because their adolescent daughters are having their first pimples and rush to dermatologists for remedy.

Hello! Slow down and relax! Although doctors are definitely the most trusted help we can attain, I would suggest you to try out tea tree oil which is much cheaper and works like magic on pimples and acne. Here’s why. Pimples are caused by excess sebum secretion underneath the skin layers which fails to come out because of blockage in the pores. This blockage is caused by minute dirt particles or bacteria which feed on the skin, ultimately causing small red bumps which we call pimples. The anti-bacterial properties of tea tree oil make it a favorite among adolescent kids as well as adults dealing with acne.

Tip- Nothing fancy! Just pour 3-4 drops of tea tree oil on clean cotton and dab only on the affected areas before retiring to bed at night.

  • For hair

There are probably no such hair problems in this world that tea tree oil cannot solve! Hair lice is a big menace that school and college girls are the most vulnerable to and you can get rid of lice by mixing a few drops of tea tree oil with your regular shampoo or to your daily oil routine.

Dandruff and itchy scalp is another huge problem with people having dry skin. It leads to tremendous hair-fall which if not treated in time, can lead to baldness and infection. Mix drops of tea tree oil with aloe-vera gel and apply liberally to your scalp and leave it over-night. Rinse it off with shampoo the next morning.

Did you know tea tree oil promotes hair growth? Hell yeah! Hence next time you oil your hair, don’t forget to add 3-4 drops of this amazing oil to your regular carrier oil (almond oil, olive oil, coconut oil) and massage your scalp with this mixture at length.

  • For cleaning

Tea tree oil with all its anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties is one of the best cleaning and sanitizing agents without the side-effects of any harmful chemical.

Tip- Mix a few drops of tea tree oil along with water, vinegar and lemon essential oils and use it as your home made cleaner. Or simply, use it as a hand sanitizer.

The surprising benefits of tea tree oil

  • For toenail fungus

Toenail fungus, although affects mostly adults can happen to people of any age due to unhygienic habits. Tea tree oil has anti-fungal and anti-parasitic properties making it often the natural choice when it comes to treating toenail fungus, ringworm and athlete’s foot. However, if problems turn severe consider consulting a doctor.

Tip – Take clean cotton and dab it into the oil. Apply liberally on the affected area. This is a slow process and would require you to apply it daily for straight 30 days.

  • As a make-up remover

 Wondering how one single thing can be a solution to practically everything? Well, thank Captain James Cook for that! This amazing oil works as a make-up remover without causing any harm due to unnecessary chemicals.

Tip – Mix a few drops of tea tree oil with a quarter cup of canola oil and viola! Your make up remover is ready!

 

  • To reduce body odor

Have you ever been in an embarrassing situation when you just forgot to carry that regular deodorant bottle and people are noticing you for the wrong reasons? Well then the solution is here! And most importantly, there is no excess compulsion of carrying it along with you! The anti-bacterial properties of tea tree oil can reduce body odor to a great extent by killing the odor-causing bacteria present in the covered areas of your body such as your under arms.

Tip- Add a few drops of essential oil with a little amount of water and rub your underarms gently with it. Then wash off with water. Do this regularly to have maximum benefits.

Tea tree oil kills bacteria and soothes inflamed skin, which is why it is often the primary thing that goes into making a home-made mouthwash or toothpaste. Also, incidences of teeth decay and bleeding gums have been seen to reduce on the application of tea tree oil.
