You must mix your eye well so that it can be in tune with the rest of your facial makeup. And also the lipsticks that you use should also be done well without spoiling the curves of your lips.

You must take care of the acne by giving steam to your face for at least twenty minutes each night. That will remove the dead cells and give freshness to your face. Besides this facial measure, you must clean, tone, and moisturize you face daily to retain the glow.

Makeup tips – MAKEUP: What is the trend this season? Skin like Silk The trend continues to be the same as last season, healthy skin with a light foundation, perhaps one with illumination effect. Remember to correct dark circles and any redness in the skin before applying foundation. Blend it in well so that it will look natural… Something new: Try the new Yves Saint Laurent product, with incorporated brush. Seductive Eyes The colors in style this season include all shades of chocolate, from cappuccino to mocha lattes. We will show you how to achieve the smoky eye look: A STEP BY STEP ON HOW TO ACHIEVE THE SMOKY EYE LOOK (…easily) With a dark brown eyeliner, pencil in upper and lower lashlines. Retrace the lines you’ve just made. Do not make it too thick. It is better to increase the color little by little. Blend in the eyeliner with a brush that was dipped in dark brown eyeshadow (or any chocolate color you like). Blend in all the way to brow bone, making sure there aren’t any distinct lines. Blend in the lower lashline softly with a fine brush. Then apply a light colored shimmer in cream texture to the underbrow. Add intensity by apply mascara to eyelashes. Use a lash curler first. Then apply two coats of black mascara. CHEEKBONES Blush-it’s in style! The trend on the cheekbones is to use blush in cream or liquid to give that healthy look in tones of pale reds. A good trick: Apply your foundation, then (before applying loose powder) apply cream textured blush. Next lightly brush the area with translucent powder. Then apply a bit of powdered blush in a similar tone to make the color stand out. You will look amazing. Remember it’s best to blend in cream or liquid blush with a small sponge or your fingertips. LIPS Red is in style! Of course, then you should opt for a light eye makeup. If you apply lip color in shades of red, pay special attention to the corners of the mouth. You can follow these 3 makeup tips: 1. Outline the lips with a lipliner in a neutral tone. Blend in to erase the natural lip line (the trick is to blend in very well). 2. Pencil in the entire lips with a red lipliner, so that when and if your lipstick fades you won’t be left with a dark line on the edge of the lips. 3. Use a brush to apply what ever shade of intense red you like. Then you can apply a lip gloss. It’s just what everyone is wearing these day. 4. Makeup tips: HAIRSTYLES: At last! These are the three hairstyles most seen on the runway. Comfortable to wear and easy to create! STRAIGHT HAIR PARTED DOWN THE MIDDLE A trend these days is to wear your hair straight. If you already have straight hair, just let it fall to the side. If you don’t, to achieve this effect you can used a flat iron. Now there are those made of ceramic, and they don’t damage the hair as much. Remember to use product in your hair to protect it from the heat, whether it be a flat iron or blow dryer. NEITHER STRAIGHT NOR CURLY This trend is comfortable and very easy to do. Here are some tips to create this look: 1. Straighten the longest pieces of hair. 2. Straighten the next to longest hair to make it easier to manipulate later. 3. Put in some large rollers in the hair at the crown of your head. Not too tight. You can use a hair curler, but don’t make curls too obvious. 4. Straighten the shortest part of your hair( the top of your head) and tease it, add some hairspray if you like. 5. If you have bangs, straighten with a medium sized round brush to that you won’t lose volume…and there you have it! BANGS Bangs are what give you a touch a personality and it shapes the hairstyle. Long bangs are great for any age. Short bangs are good on young women. Consult your stylist. She can recommend what’s best for your face shape.

HAIR CARE IN THE RAINS

Manage hair easily and keep it looking great even when it rains!

The rains bring respite from the heat of the summer but can leave you frustrated when your hair refuses to behave and stay in style. However, by following a few simple tips, you can manage to keep your hair problems to a minimum and look good.

Do not wash your hair too often

There is nothing better than a nice bath when you just get in from the pouring rain. However, washing your hair too often, say every day, can exaggerate the problems you already face. Washing your hair two or three times a week willkeep your hair clean and looking good. At the same time, it prevents excessive drying of hair and keeps frizziness to a minimum. Also, do not forget to condition your hair after every wash; you could use a leave-in conditioner to make dry hair more manageable.

Protect from moisture

Excessive moisture is the biggest culprit during this season. It affects your hair even if you remain indoors, especially on days when the humidity is high. Depending on your hair type, it may leave your hair frizzy or flat. Hair that is fine, wavy, or curly usually tends to absorb the moisture in the air. This makes fine or thin hair fall flat, but people with wavy or curly hair end up with frizzy strands. The best solution to this is to use a humidity-protective gel before styling. These gels help by forming a protective coat over the hair cuticle and preventing moisture from getting in.

You can also follow up with a non-sticky hairspray for extra protection. It is better to use an aerosol, since it gives out a fine spray. A spray with a regular nozzle can give out too much of the product, which can result in clumps of your hair turning sticky later on in the day. Try not to use more than four different hair care products at a time. This will save you time. A normal routine would be to use a shampoo, followed by conditioner, styling gel, andhairspray.

Do not experiment too much

On rainy and extra-humid days, it is usually better not to force your hair into a style that does not feel right. For example, do not attempt to curl hair that is fine and limp or straighten hair that is naturally curly. This is because even a small amount of moisture absorbed by your hair will make it revert back to its natural texture, and your efforts will be in vain. Instead, try and make the most of your natural hair texture by adopting a style that suits you. Rub a generous amount of gel through curls for that tousled look. For fine and straight hair, pulling it back into a ponytail or braid works best.

Choose hair care products wisely

Frizzy hair is usually dealt with by using hair cream or similar products to smooth it down. But this can have an adverse effect, by allowing your hair to absorb moisture and making it look greasy or sticky. During the rainy season, it is better to stick to alcohol-based creams and gels since they have a drying effect on hair. Leave moisturising products for use in the winter months.

Accessorise

If you cannot quite get your hair to behave the way you want it to, do not fret. The right accessories can not only cover up a bad-hair day but can also make a fashion statement. A colourful scarf can cover up most of your frizzy ends, while a funky hairband works for shorter hair. If all else fails, just grab a hat for that slightly bohemian look.

With so many ways to keep your hair looking and feeling great even when it’s wet, it is time for you to go ahead and enjoy that rain dance!

7 Basic Everyday Health Tips

“He who has health has hope, and he who has hope has everything.” -Arabian Proverb

1. Move extra: Make it a daily challenge to find ways to move your body. Climb stairs if given a choice between that and escalators or elevators. Play with your kids; throw balls with friends, trim the lawn. Anything that moves your limbs is not only a fitness tool, it’s a stress buster. Think ‘move’ in small increments of time. It doesn’t have to be an hour in the gym. But that’s great when you’re up to it. Meanwhile, move more.

2. Cut Fat: Avoid such as fried foods, burgers and other fatty meals. Dairy products such as cheese, cottage cheese, milk and cream should be eaten in low fat versions. Nuts and sandwich meats, mayonnaise, margarine, butter and sauces should be eaten in limited amounts. Most are available in lower fat versions such as substitute butter, fat free cheeses and mayonnaise.

3. Give up Smoking: Smoking is harmful to your health.

4. Reduce Stress: Easier said than done, stress busters come in many forms. Some techniques recommended by experts are to think positive thoughts. Spend 30 minutes a day doing something you like. (i.e; walk on the beach or in a park; read a good book; visit a friend; play with your baby; listen to soothing music; watch a funny movie. Get a massage, a facial or a haircut. Meditate. Count to ten before losing your temper or getting aggravated. Avoid difficult people when possible.

5. Protect Yourself from Pollution: If you can’t live in a smog-free environment, at least avoid smoke-filled rooms, high traffic areas, breathing in highway fumes and exercising near busy thoroughfares. Exercise indoors in air conditioning when air quality is good. It’s a good pollution and dirt from the street deterrent.

6. Floss Your Teeth: Recent studies make a direct connection between longevity and teeth flossing. Nobody knows exactly why. Perhaps it’s because people who floss tend to be more health conscious than people who don’t? Thought for the day: Floss and be your body’s boss.

7. Keep a optimistic Mental point of view: There’s a definitive connection between living well and healthfully and having a cheerful outlook on life.

Why Fasting To Lose Weight Is A Bad Idea

Fasting is usually regarded as a spiritual practice, but sometimes, it is also associated with weight loss. While fasting for a day could help the body eliminate toxins, and use the fat in the body tissues as fuel, fasting for more than three days generates health problems. Plus, fasting to lose weight is a bad idea because the hunger you will experience will make you eat more afterwards, just to compensate for what was lost during the fasting. Let’s see the most common questions related to fasting and why fasting to lose weight is a bad idea.

What is fasting

Fasting can have different meanings, as some see it as refraining from food altogether, and from water as well, while others see it as refraining only from solid foods, or meat, or other products. The broader meaning is that of refraining from food over a certain period of time, meaning that you can still hydrated with plenty of water, in order to reduce the bad effects of fasting on the body. Physicians recommend you avoid fasting for more than three days, as your body will only have to suffer as a result.

Fasting and weight loss

Imagine a day without any food. Your body will still have to burn fuel in order to function, and the main target will be the fat stored in its tissues. It sounds like a great idea for weight loss, as we seldom hear that in order to lose weight, you need to burn more calories than the daily intake. How about if the intake is equal to zero calories? You cannot go lower than that, so maybe you think right now: “What a brilliant idea!” But is it? It is true that your body will lose some weight on the spot, but there are no guaranteed long term effects, and you will soon learn why fasting to lose weight is a bad idea.

Why fasting cannot serve as a weight loss plan

Fasting for more than a few days will cause a series of bad effects on the body, and it cannot serve as a weight loss plan either. Here are the main points why fasting to lose weight is a bad idea.

1. First, when you refrain from eating food, this will be a signal for the body that there is a famine coming, and the metabolism will slow down in order to preserve energy.

2. Second, while in the beginning the body will turn to the stored fat to use as fuel, next will come your muscles, and the general look will begin to deprecate, along with your health.

3. Third, fasting even for a few days can cause weight gain, instead of weight loss, because when you will return to your regular eating habits, the body will start to store fuel, in order to face better another starving session.

Other bad effects of fasting on the body include loss of calcium – which is essential for people under 20, and for those over 40 – , increase of potential for illness, bad breath, build up of toxins, and a general sensation of lethargy and lack of energy to carry even daily duties.

Common Naill Problems

Are your nails perfectly healthy? Read on to learn about some of the common nail disorders that affect people.

Your nails are not just present for cosmetic purposes. They serve an important function of protecting the delicate tips of your fingers. Therefore, having healthy nails is not only aesthetic, but also beneficial for your hands as well. Nails are subjected to a lot of wear and tear on a daily basis. Daily activities such aswashing clothes and utensils tend to strip away the protective cover of your nails. This leaves the delicate nails exposed to the elements.

Nail problems usually do not appear instantly. They build up over time before they are actually noticed by the individual. Although many disorders are due to external factors, some problems may be a result of internal conditions or as a side effect of illness. Here are some of the most commonly encounterednail problems.

Discoloured Nails

This is one of the most recognisable nail problems. At some point or the other, everyone experiences this disorder. ‘Discoloured’ is a term given to nails that have lost their original colour. These nails may turn yellow, blue, red, green, or purple. The discolouration may be present in only part of the nail or it may be seen in the entire nail.

Discolouration of nails can occur for a variety of reasons. The most common cause is poor blood circulation. This is synonymous with heart problems, hence, people with a heart condition will often display nail discolouration. Poor blood circulation is also related to trauma. This happens when blood gets trapped between the layers of the nail, for example if the nail is caught between drawers.

For nail discolouration caused due to trauma, the discolouration grows out along with the nail. In other cases, discolouration needs to be examined, and the underlying cause determined. If discolouration is a side effect of medication, your doctor may suggest withdrawal of the medicines for a while. Physically, discolouration may be covered up by applying nail polish or using artificial nails.

Eggshell Nails

In this condition, the nails become so fragile that even slight pressure exerted on them causes damage. The nails themselves are extremely thin and fragile, which gives them their name. As the nails grow, they tend to curve over the tip of the finger, rather than grow straight ahead. This makes them more susceptible to breakage.

Eggshell nails are usually caused by a combination of stress and poor diet. This deprives the nails of their necessary vitamins and minerals. In some cases, fragile nails may be caused due to prescribed medication, which affects the supply of nutrients tothe nail . Eggshell nails are usually dealt with by trimming them on a regular basis. This keeps the nails short and prevents them from growing over the fingers. Simultaneously, a change in diet or medication will also be required. This is to bring the nails back to their original healthy state.

Ingrown Nails

This condition mostly affects toenails. Ingrown nails are those that grow into the sides of the skin surrounding the nail. Thus, the nail grows sideways instead of forwards. Ingrown nails are usually caused due to improper nail-cutting and filing techniques. It may also occur due to the usage of improper footwear, which pressesthe nail into the foot. A third cause is due to injury to the foot, around the nail region.

Most cases of ingrown nails involve the big toe on either foot. Other nails may also be affected but this is not as common. If an ingrown nail is not treated in the early stages, it leads to more problems later on. An untreated nail continues to grow deeper into the skin, causing intense pain and suffering. Treatment of this condition is by removing the ingrown nail. In the early stages, the ingrown nail may be removed by a pedicure at a beauty parlour. If the nail has grown too deep, then it can only be extracted through surgery.

Nail problems are very common and affect most people at some point in their life. If left untreated, most problems can have painful consequences. It is important to recognise the early signs of these problems so that you can seek the appropriate treatment options.
