If you have hair, then split ends are a fact of life. But there are ways to deal with these nasties. After shampooing, you can “glue” them back together with a deep conditioner, preferably one that contains wheat protein, which coats the ends of your hair and holds them together. Leave it on for three to five minutes. The water in your hair will heat up the ingredients so they can penetrate damaged ends, making them less prone to future breakage.
To smooth out whatever frizzing remains, use a silicone hair polish or gloss on your hair when styling.
Unfortunately, the only permanent fix is to snip off tattered ends. To keep hair healthy, avoid overheating with the blow-dryer, and use brushes gently.

If your face is partly oily and partly dry, you have got combination skin and there are several ways to take care of it. Use a mild cleanser on your entire face, upto twice a day. Use a good moisturizer on the dry areas. Moisturizers work by either increasing the penetration of water into the skin or by reducing the rate at which water is evaporating from the skin surface. Look for products that normalize your skin, such as those that contain alpha hydroxy acids. When applied to the skin they help remove dead skin cells (exfoliate), giving us a younger appearance. Use oil-absorbing makeup on oily areas to control shine. Use a sunscreen, minimum SPF 15.
