Despite what the ‘cool’ kids told you in highschool, smoking is a pretty dumb thing to do. And now, there may be actual proof that if you smoke, you may actually be dumb, too.
Apart from the health risks and the affects on your appearance, a new study shows that those with lower IQs tend to be smokers, which I’m sure is going to cause some controversy. And get this – the study shows that the heavier the smoker, the lower his or her IQ!
Dr. Mark Weiser from Sheba Medical center in Tel Hashomer Hospital in Israel conducted this study on 20,000 soilders and says, “It was really quite a straightforward study. We looked at cross-sectional data on IQ and smoking cigarettes, and looked at people’s smoking status and their IQs. It’s very clear that people with low IQs are the ones who choose to smoke.”
Probably not something you’d want to tell others about yourself, right?

To get the most out of the dollop of product you squeezed out, instead of squeezing it onto the back of your hand, squeeze the product onto your palms. Take two fingers and really ‘mix’ the product in – the heat from your fingers will make the cosmetic more spreadable for a flawless finish, and you use less product. If, like me, you are a beast and like to slap on your makeup, rub the makeup gently between your palms and spread it all over your face. This also uses such a small amount of product it’s unbelievable – your products would last much longer!
