Ways to give your eye lashes the much needed care

 

Ways to give your eye lashes the much needed care

 

 

 

Its always a girl's wish to have long, thick and curled eyelashes. But most of us make some common mistakes like excessive rubbing of the eyes or being too aggressive when cleansing off mascara which can also lead to eye lash loss. Also while buying a mascara avoid one that contains ethel alcohol because it’s very drying, causing the lashes to be brittle and resulting in breakage. Look for mascaras that are also free of parabens and phthalates. In order to promote the growth of the lashes you could use a lash conditioning serum that promotes density, length and most importantly, diameter of the natural lashes. In order to maintain healthy lashes, thoroughly clean your face, including the eye area, before going to bed every night. 

 

Just like you would apply night cream or serum to your face, applying a conditioning serum before bedtime is key. Moisturizing your eyelashes can prevent them from breakage and help them grow faster and stronger, and is one of my best tips on how to care for eyelashes. You can also use natural oils like castor or sweet almond oil. After cleansing before bed, apply a small amount of Vaseline to your lashes using your fingertip. Make sure not to rub the product into your eyes, as it can cause puffy eyes in the morning for some women.

 

Also Biotin is necessary for cell growth. Your eyelashes are dead skin cells. Care for them by taking a daily biotin supplement that helps with growing healthy skin, hair and nails. If you want your eye lashes to stay curled all through the day one of the simplest things you can do is to apply a waterproof mascara before your regular mascara. A waterproof formula can seal the curl to ensure your lashes won't droop throughout the day.

 

Never  heat an eyelash curler with a hairdryer and use it, because the skin around the eye is so much thinner and more sensitive than other areas, it is surprisingly easy to burn using this method.While thicker, darker lashes can tolerate a little more heat than finer, lighter lashes, it can be difficult to know just how much heat is being applied to the lashes. And too much can actually cause lashes to break off with the curler when it is squeezed.

 

Your fingers could be your best eye lash curling option. Warm your fingers up. You can run them under warm water for a few minutes or just rub them together to heat them up.Push up your eyelashes. Take your pointer finger and push your eyelashes up against the top of your eye. Hold the position for at least thirty seconds. Repeat with your lower lashes and your other eye. Apply two coats of mascara to set the curl. Carefully run the wand from roots to tips. If you need to comb your lashes, do so gently so you don't lose your curl.

 

The most important of all is to treat your eyelashes kindly as after all, they are one of your most important assets. Avoid rubbing your eyes by all means because this can lead to pulling and breaking your lashes. If they feel itchy then try to pat them gently with your finger. You also need to avoid using eyelashes curlers too often because using those curlers frequently will lead your eyelashes to break and fall out.

సమ్మర్ బ్యూటీ కేర్ టిప్స్

ఎండలు మండిపోతున్నాయి. ఈ వేసవి తాకిడి నుండి తప్పించుకోవడం ఎలా, శరీరాన్ని కాపాడుకోవడం ఎలా అనేది పెద్ద ప్రశ్న. ఎండలో తిరక్కుండా ఎంత జాగ్రత్తగా ఉన్నా, సెగలు కక్కుతున్న సూర్యుని తాపం మనమీద ప్రత్యక్షంగానో, పరోక్షంగానో పడుతూనే ఉంటుంది. ఇక వృత్తి ఉద్యోగాల రీత్యా కొందరికి బయట తిరగక తప్పదు. వీరి సంగతి చెప్పనవసరం లేదు. మరీ దుర్భరంగా ఉంటుంది.

ఒక్కో సీజన్లో ఒక్కో సమస్య ఉండనే ఉంటుంది. చలికాలంలో చర్మం పొడివారుతుంది. వాజిలిన్లు, కోల్డ్ క్రీములూ, మాయిశ్చరైజర్లు రాస్తున్నా చర్మం పగులుతూనే ఉంటుంది. ఇబ్బంది పెడుతూనే ఉంటుంది. ఇక ఇప్పుడు వేసవిలో నీటి శాతం తగ్గిపోయి, శరీరంలో కాంతి నశిస్తుంది. ముఖంలో గ్లో తగ్గుతుంది. నీటి శాతం తగ్గడం వల్ల చర్మం ముడతలు పడుతుంది. ముఖంలో రింకిల్స్ అందవిహీనంగా ఉంటాయి. ఉన్న వయసు కంటే ఎక్కువ వయసు కనిపిస్తుంది.

ఈ ఎండల నుండి బయట పడే మార్గం లేదా, మనల్ని మనం రక్షించుకునే అవకాశం లేదా అంటే, తప్పకుండా ఉంది. ఈ వేసవి కాలంలో పాటించాల్సిన కొన్ని జాగ్రత్తలు తెలుసుకుందాం. సమ్మర్ బ్యూటీ కేర్ టిప్స్ తో ముఖ సౌందర్యం ఏమాత్రం పాడవకుండా చూసుకుందాం.

  1. శరీరానికి ఆహారం ఎంత అవసరమో నీరు కూడా అంటే అవసరం. నీళ్ళు ఎక్కువ పరిమాణంలో తాగేవారికి సర్వసాధారణంగా ఏ జబ్బులూ రావు. ఇది అతిశయోక్తి కాదు. వాటర్ థెరపీని మించినది మరొకటి లేదు. రోజుకు 16 గ్లాసుల నీళ్ళు తాగమని డాక్టర్లు పదేపదే చెప్తున్నారు. పుష్కలంగా నీరు తాగితే అనారోగ్యాలకు దూరంగా ఉండొచ్చు. ఇక వేసవిలో అయితే, శరీరంలో ఉన్న నీరు ఇంకిపోతుంది కనుక, మరింత పరిమాణంలో నీరు సేవించాలి. రోజుకు కనీసం ఐదు లీటర్ల నీరు తాగాలి. నీరు ఎక్కువగా తాగడంవల్ల చర్మం కాంతివంతంగా ఉంటుంది. ముఖ వర్చస్సు పెరుగుతుంది. డీ-హైడ్రేషన్ లాంటి సమస్యలు తలెత్తవు.

  2. . చాలామంది వేసవి తాపాన్ని భరించలేక ఐస్ క్రీములు, కూల్ డ్రింకులతో సేదతీరుతుంటారు. శీతల పానీయాలు, ఐస్ క్రీములు దాహార్తిని తీర్చేమాట నిజం. కొంతసేపు సేద తీరినట్లూ ఉంటుంది. కానీ అది చాలా తాత్కాలికం. పైగా ఈ కూల్ డ్రింకులు ఒబేసిటీ లాంటి అనేక అదనపు సమస్యలకు కారణమౌతాయి. కనుక కూల్ డ్రింకులు, ఐస్ క్రీములకు దూరంగా ఉండాలి.

  3. . కొబ్బరి నీళ్ళు ఆరోగ్యానికి చాలా మంచిది. ఇందులో మినరల్స్ పుష్కలంగా ఉంటాయి. విటమిన్ బి, విటమిన్ సి, ప్రోటీన్లు ఉంటాయి. వేసవిలో వీలైనంత ఎక్కువగా కొబ్బరినీళ్ళు తాగుతూ ఉండాలి. బొబ్బరి నీళ్ళు తాగడంవల్ల ముఖంలో చక్కటి ప్రకాశం వస్తుంది.

  4. ఏ సీజన్లో దొరికే పండ్లు ఆ సీజన్లో సేవిస్తూ ఉండాలి. ముఖ్యంగా వేసవిలో తాజా పండ్లు ఎక్కువగా తీసుకోవాలి. నిలవ ఉంచిన ఫ్రూట్స్ కాకుండా ఎప్పటికప్పుడు తాజా పండ్లను తీసుకోవాలి. పండ్లను రసం తీసుకుని తాగడం కంటే ముక్కలు కోసుకుని తినడం మంచిది. పండ్ల నుండి జ్యూస్ తీయడం వల్ల అందులో ఉండే ఫైబర్ చాలావరకూ ఫిల్టరయి పోతుంది. ఫైబర్ జీర్ణ ప్రక్రియలో ఎంతగానో ఉపయోపడుతుంది. తాజా పండ్లను సేవించడం వల్ల ముఖంలో కాంతి వస్తుంది.

  5. కీరా దోసకాయలు వేసవిలో విరివిగా దొరుకుతాయి. చెక్కు తీసిన కీరా దోసకాయలు తినడం వల్ల వేసవి తాపం తగ్గుతుంది. ముఖానికి వన్నె వస్తుంది. కీరా దోసకాయలను సన్నగా చెక్కల్లా తరిగి, ముఖంమీద ఉంచి పడుకోవాలి. ఆ ముక్కల నీటిని ముఖం పీల్చుకున్న తర్వాత వాటిని తీసి పడేసి, చల్లటి నీతితో ముఖం కడుక్కోవాలి. ఇలా చేయడం వల్ల ముఖానికి మరింత శోభ వస్తుంది.

  6. టొమేటో గుజ్జు, బొప్పాయి గుజ్జు మొదలైన వాటితో ముఖానికి ప్యాక్ లా వేసుకోవాలి. ఒక అరగంట పాటు అలా ఉంచుకుని, ఎండిన తర్వాత చల్లటి నీటితో కడుక్కోవాలి. ఈ ఫేస్ ప్యాక్ లు ముఖంలో ముడతలు రాకుండా చేస్తాయి. తాజాదనాన్ని, అందాన్ని ఇస్తాయి.

  7. ఆకుకూరలు ఆరోగ్యానికి అన్నివిధాలా మంచిది. వేసవిలో ఆకుకూరలు మరీ మంచిది. వీలైనంత ఎక్కువగా ఆకుకూరలు తినడం వల్ల ముఖంలో ముడతలు రావు. ముఖం తేటగా అనిపిస్తుంది.

    అదీ సంగతి. వేసవివల్ల వచ్చే సమస్యలను ఇలాంటి ఆరోగ్య జాగ్రత్తలను పాటించడం ద్వారా తరిమికొట్టవచ్చు.

 


అందానికి చిట్కాలు

 

అందానికి చిట్కాలు

  1. మీరు బయటికి వెళ్ళేటప్పుడు బ్రషర్ నే వాడండి, లిప్ స్టిక్, కోహిల్ పెన్సిల్ తో కనుబొమ్మలను సరిదిద్దుకోండి.

  2. మస్కారాని వాడితే మీ కనుబొమ్మలు, మీ కనురెప్పలు కూడా దట్టంగా కనిపిస్తాయి.

  3. బ్రషర్స్ తో కంటి షాడో ను లిప స్టిక్ ను సరిదిద్దుకోవచ్చు.

  4. కంటి రెప్పలకు బంగారు రంగు గాని , వెండి రంగులు గాని పూత పూయడం, కొంత స్పెషల్ ఫంక్షన్స్ అయితే గాని బాగుండదు. మీరు గోల్డ్, సిల్వర్ కూడా మేకప్ మెటీరియల్స్ తో పాటు వాడవచ్చు. మీ ముఖంలో బంగారు ఛాయ గాని, రజిత ఛాయ గాని కనిపించి మరింత అందంగా కనిపిస్తారు. కనుక మీరు అందంగా కనిపించాలంటే మీకు వయస్సుతో పనేలేదు. ఏ వయస్సు వారైనా సరే కాస్త శ్రద్ధ తీసుకుంటే శ్రమ అనుకోకపోతే అందంగా, ఆకర్షణీయంగా , ఆహ్లాదకరంగా, ఆహ్లాదకరంగా అందరికీ ఆమోదయోగ్యంగా కనిపించి ఆనందపరచవచ్చు, ఆహ్లాదపరచవచ్చు.

మేకప్ కళలోని కొన్ని కిటుకులు...మోడరన్ మేకప్ చాలా అభివృద్ధి చెందింది. స్త్రీలు తమ అందాన్ని ఎన్నో విధాలుగా మలుచుకుంటున్నారు. సహజంగా సౌందర్యాన్ని ఇనుమడింపజేసుకునే విధంగా మేకప్ ను అభివృద్ధి పరిచారు. స్త్రీ యొక్క ముఖకవళికలను ఎన్నో రీతులలో మార్పులు చేయగలుగుతున్నారు. అసలు ఫేస్ మేకప్ పై అద్భుతమయిన ప్రయోగాలు చేసి పర్సనాలిటీనే పూర్తిగా మార్చి వేస్తున్నారు.

ఈ నాడు మేకప్ కళ ఎంత ఎదిగిపోయిందంటే ఆధునిక యుగ రీతులకనుగుణంగా కాలాన్ని బట్టి, వయస్సును బట్టి, వెళ్ళే అకేషన్ ని బట్టి అంతే వివాహానికి ఓ రకంగా , బర్త్ డే పార్టీకి మరో రకంగా , పిక్నిక్ కి మరో విధంగా, సాధారణ పార్టీలకో విధంగా, ఫంక్షన్ ను బట్టి తగిన మేకప్ చేసుకుంటున్నారు. దానికనువైన దుస్తులను ధరిస్తున్నారు. ఆభరణాలు కూడా తదనుగుణంగానే ధరిస్తున్నారు. మేకప్ లేకుండా ఈ ఆధునిక యుగంలో ఏ స్త్రీ బయటకు రావడం లేదు. ఫంక్షన్స్ కి మాత్రమే కాదు మామూలుగా మార్కెట్టుకు కూరగాయలు, సరుకుల నిమిత్తం వెళ్ళినా స్త్రీలు మేకప్, మ్యాచింగ్ డ్రెస్ లేనిదే బయటికి అడుగు పెట్టరు. స్త్రీని చూస్తే కేశాలంకరణ నుంచి, పాదరక్షల వరకు, తిలకం, దుస్తులు, ఆభరణాలు అన్నీ ఒకే రంగులో మ్యాచ్ అవుతూ ఉండి తీరాల్సిందే.

ఇప్పుడు మేకప్ చేసుకోవడం పెద్ద కష్టం కాదు. ప్రాబ్లం కూడా కాదు. అనేక షేడ్స్ లో మ్యాచ్ ఫ్యాక్టర్స్ విదేశాలనుండి దిగుమతి అయ్యాయి. వాటి ప్రభావం అపూర్వం, మనలోని లోపాలెన్నో అత్యద్భుతంగా కప్పి పుచ్చగలుగుతున్నారు.. జబ్బు చేసి ముఖం మీద మచ్చలయినా, లేదా గుంటలు అయినా అతి సులువుగా మూసేయగలుగుతున్నారు. ముఖాన్ని మేకప్ తో పూర్తిగా మార్చి వేయాలనే పూర్వపు ఆలోచనైతే నేడు ముఖాన్ని సహజంగానే ఉంచుతూ చాలా సహజ సిద్ధంగా ఉండే లైట్ రంగుని ఇప్పుడు ఉపయోగిస్తున్నారు.

పూర్వం మేకప్ డ్రైగా ఉండేది. ఇప్పటి మేకప్ లో మాయిశ్చరైజర్ వాడుతున్నారు. అందుకే మేకప్ ఎంతో ముచ్చటగా, సున్నితంగా, తెజోవంతంగా ఉంటుంది. మేకప్ లో ఉన్నప్పుడు మనలోంచి చాలా వరకు చెమట రూపంలో మనలోని తేమతనం ఇంకి పోతూ ఉంటుంది. దానిని అరికట్టి సమ శీతోష్ణతను నెలకొల్పడానికి మాయిశ్చరైజర్ ను ఇప్పుడు విరివిగా వాడుతున్నారు. మేకప్ కు ముందుగా మన శరీరం కొంత తేమతనం కలిగి ఉండాలి. అందుకోసం మనం మాయిశ్చర్ కలిగిన రసాయనిక పదార్థాలు వాడటం మంచిది. చర్మం మెత్తగా ఉంటే మేకప్ బాగా అతుకుతుంది. చర్మం బిరుసుగా ఉంటే అతకదు. చూడటానికి ఎబ్బెట్టుగా ఉంటుంది.

మాయిశ్చరైజర్ లు ఇప్పుడు అనేక విధాలుగా మార్కెట్టులో విడుదలవుతున్నాయి. ఎమెల్షన్సు గాను, ద్రావకాలగాను వస్తున్నాయి. మాయిశ్చరైజర్ ను పల్చగా ముఖానికి మెడకి పట్టించాలి. దానిపైన ఫౌండేషన్ మేకప్ చేయాలి. ఫౌండేషన్ కు ఉపయోగించే రంగును అన్వేషించడంలో కొంత టెక్నిక్ అవసరం. అది ఉపయోగించే రంగు పైన కూడా ఆధారపడి ఉంటుంది. ఫౌండేషన్ పూర్తి చేశాక దానిపై కాంతిని కొంత వరకు సరఫరా చేయగల పౌడర్ ( Transcent powder) ను జల్లాలి. అప్పుడు గాని ఫౌండేషన్ బాగా సెట్ అవదు.

 


అవాంఛిత రోమాల నివారణ

 

అవాంఛిత రోమాల నివారణ

చాలా మంది స్త్రీలకు అనవసరమైన చోట్ల రోమాలు ( హెయిర్ ) ఉంటాయి. వీటిని తొలగించుకోవడానికి రకరకాల పద్ధతులు ఉన్నాయి. వాటిలో కొన్నిటి గురించి వివరాలు ఇక్కడ పాఠకుల కోసం ...

సమయం ఎక్కువ కేటాయించలేని వారికోసం రోమాలను తొలగించే ప్రత్యేకమైన క్రీములు చాలా మార్కెట్ లో ఉన్నాయి. వీటిని డెపిలేటరీ క్రీం లు అని అంటారు. ఇవి చర్మం కింది భాగంలో ఉండే వెంట్రుకల మూలాల మీద పని చేస్తాయి. వాటిని నిర్మూలిస్తాయి . ఇవి సమర్థవంతంగా పని చేస్తాయి. అయితే చిన్నపాటి ఇబ్బందులు కూడా ఉన్నాయి.

సున్నితమైన శరీర తత్త్వం ఉన్న వాళ్ళు వీటిని చర్మం మీద అప్లై చేస్తే మంట పుట్టే అవకాశం ఎక్కువ. ఇందులో ఉండే రసాయనాలు కొందరికి అలర్జీ కలిగించవచ్చు కూడా. వీటిని కంటి దగ్గర మాత్రం ఎప్పుడూ ఉపయిగించవద్దు. ఏదేమైనా మొదటిసారి క్రీం ఉపయోగించేవారు తప్పనిసరిగా టెస్ట్ చేసుకోవడం అవసరం.

గోరు వెచ్చని నీటితో తడిపిన గుడ్డతో క్రీం అప్లై చేయదలుచుకున్న ప్రాంతంలోని చర్మాన్ని రుద్దాలి. దీని ఫలితంగా అక్కడ ఆండ్ చర్మం మృదువుగా మారడమే కాకుండా సూక్ష్మ రంధ్రాలను మరింత శుభ్రపరుస్తుంది. అప్పుడు రిమూవల్ క్రీం ఎక్కువగా చర్మం లోకి వెళ్ళగలుగుతుంది . క్రీం ను ఉపయోగించే సూచనల కంటే ఎక్కువ సేపు క్రీం ను చర్మం మీద ఉంచకూడదు. ముందుగా తడిగుడ్డతో ఆ ప్రాంతాన్ని క్లీన్ చేసిన తర్వాత కడుక్కోవడం మంచిది.

వాక్సింగ్, సుగరింగ్ తో వెంట్రుకలను తొలగించడం చాల అ సురక్షితమైన మార్గం. ఎక్కువకాలం ఉండే ఫలితాలు పొందవచ్చు. వెంట్రుకలు కుదుళ్ళనుంచి తొలగించబడతాయి. ఎక్కువ నొప్పి కూడా కలగజేయని పధ్ధతి ఇది. అన్ని బ్యూటీ పార్లర్ లలో దీన్ని ఉపయోగిస్తారు.

లేజర్ ట్రీట్ మెంట్

ఇది కూడా మంచి పద్ధతే అని చెప్పాలి. ఇందులో వెంట్రుకలను కుదుళ్ళ నుంచి తొలగిస్తారు. లేతరంగు శరీర వర్ణం కలిగి ఉన్న వారికి అంటే ఎరుపు, లేదా తెలుపు శరీర వర్ణం ఉండేవారికి లేజర్ ట్రీట్ మెంట్ మంచి ఫలితాలను ఇస్తుంది. ఎందుకటే గాఢమైన రంగు కలిగినవి లేజర్ కిరణాలను ఎక్కువగా స్వీకరిస్తాయి.

అందువల్ల నల్లని శరీర వర్ణం ఉన్నవారికి లేజర్ ట్రీట్ మెంట్ వల్ల మంట పుట్టే అవకాశం ఉంది. దీని వల్ల శాశ్వతంగా వెంట్రుకలను నిర్మూలించడం కుదరకపోవచ్చు. అయితే, ట్రీట్ మెంట్ తీసుకున్న ప్రాంతంలో వెంట్రుకలు కొంచెం పలుచగా పెరిగే అవకాశం ఉంది. ఇది చాలా ఖరీదైనదే !

షేవింగ్

ఇది పూర్తిగా సురక్షితమైనదే కాక, చవకగా అయిపోయేది. ప్రతి ఒక్కరూ ఎవరికీ వారే షేవ్ చేసుకోవచ్చ్చు. తరచుగా షేవింగ్ చేసుకోవాల్సి ఉంటుంది. కొన్ని జాగ్రత్తకు తీసుకోవాలి. కొత్తగా ఉండే బ్లేడ్ ను వాడాలి. ముందుగా క్రీం ను అప్లై చేసిన తర్వాతే షేవ్ చేయాలి. క్రీం అప్లై చేస్తే ఆ ప్రాంతంలో చర్మం మృదువుగా మారుతుంది.

ముఖ సౌందర్యాన్ని పాడు చేసే బ్లాక్ హెడ్స్

 

ముఖ సౌందర్యాన్ని పాడు చేసే బ్లాక్ హెడ్స్

మామూలుగా ఏ స్త్రీ లేదా పురుషుని అందాన్ని గురించి మాట్లాడేటప్పుడు ముఖాన్ని గురించి ముందుగా ప్రస్తావిస్తారు. ముఖమే ఎవరి అందానికైనా కొలబద్దగా ఉంటుంది. అందమైన ముఖానికి చక్కటి ముక్కు ఒక ఆకర్షణగా నిలుస్తుంది. కాని ఈ అందమైన నాసికా సౌందర్యాన్ని తగ్గిస్తాయి బ్లాక్ హెడ్స్. మిగిలిన వారిలో కూడా ఇది కనిపించినా, ప్రధానంగా ఆయిలీ స్కిన్ ఉన్న వాళ్ళలో ఈ సమస్య ఎక్కువగా కనిపిస్తుంది. వీటివల్ల ఎలాంటి ఆరోగ్య సమస్యలు లేకపోయినా ఇవి చికాకును తెప్పిస్తాయి. ఎంతో అందమైన ముఖం వున్నా వీటి వల్ల ఇబ్బందిగానే ఉంటుంది.

ముఖ్యంగా ఇవి ఒకసారి తీసేసినా పడే పడే వస్తూ ఉంటాయి. దీని వల్ల మానసికంగా కొంచెం దిగులు ఏర్పడుతుంది. పడే పడే అద్దంలో వీటిని చూసుకుంటూ ఉండటం కంటే తీసివేసే మార్గాన్ని చూడటం ఉత్తమం. వీటి నివారణోపాయం ఏమిటంటే బ్యూటీషియన్ దగ్గరకు వెళ్ళి వాటిని తగిన విధంగా తీసి వేయించుకుంటూ ఉండటం. ఇప్పుడు బ్లాక్ హెడ్స్ తీసివేయడానికి చాలా మార్గాలు ఉన్నాయి.

బ్యూటీ పార్లర్ లో లేదా స్వంతంగా వారానికి రెండు సార్లు ముల్తానా మట్టి ప్యాక్ వేయించుకోవడం ఒక పధ్ధతి మరో పధ్ధతి ఏమిటంటే రోజూ మర్చి రోజు రాత్రి పూట నిద్రపోయే ముందు ట్రెటినాయిన్ ను పల్చగా ముక్కుకు తాసుకోవడం. దీని అలాగే ఉంచుకోవాలి. ఇలా చేయడం వల్ల ముక్కు పై భాగంలో ఏర్పడే సన్నని పొరలు తొలగిపోతాయి. అక్కడి చర్మం ప్రకాశవంతంగా , అందంగా తయారవుతుంది. ఈ కారణం వల్ల బ్లాక్ హెడ్స్ రావడం బాగా తగ్గిపోతుంది.

బ్యూటీ పార్లర్ కు వెళ్ళే విషయంలో కొంత పరిశీలన అవసరం. అనుభవం ఉన్న బ్యూటీషియన్ దగ్గరకు మాత్రమే వెళ్ళాలి. బ్లాక్ హెడ్స్ రిమూవ్ చేయడానికి కొంచెం నైపుణ్యం అవసరం . పరిశుభ్రతను పాటించే బ్యూటీ పార్లర్ లను ఎంచుకోవాలి. బ్యూటీ పార్లర్ కు వెళ్ళడం కొంత ఖరీదైన వ్యవహారం కాబట్టి నెలకు ఒకసారి వెళ్ళినా సరిపోతుంది.

కొంతమందికి ముక్కు చుట్టూ బ్లాక్ హెడ్స్ తో పాటుగా వైట్ హెడ్స్ కూడా వస్తాయి. అయితే ఇవి రావడం చాలా అరుదుగా జరుగుతుంది. వీటిని నివారించాలంటే ఆస్ట్రిన్జెంట్ లోషన్ లో దూదిని ముంచి, ముక్కు చుట్టూ రాసుకుంటే సరిపోతుంది. దీంతో వైట్ హెడ్స్ రావడం తగ్గిపోతుంది.


గోళ్ళు కావు గోల్డ్ తునకలు

 

గోళ్ళు కావు గోల్డ్ తునకలు

నైల్ పాలిష్ ను ఇష్టపడని స్త్రీలు చాలా తక్కువ. నైల్ పాలిష్ కోసం ప్రతి నెలా వందలాది రూపాయలు ఖర్చు పెట్టేవాళ్ళున్నారు. కొందరు వారానికోసారి గోళ్ళకు రంగు వేసుకుంటే, మరికొందరు రోజూ వేసుకుంటారు. ఏదో ఒక రంగు కాకుండా తమ దుస్తులకు మాచ్ అయ్యే రంగు వేసుకోవడం ఫాషన్.
ఒకప్పుడు సినిమావాళ్ళు, సెలెబ్రిటీలు మాత్రమే ఫాషన్ విషయంలో శ్రద్ధ తీసుకునేవాళ్ళు. ఇప్పుడలా కాదు. అందరికీ అందం మీద శ్రద్ధాసక్తులు పెరిగాయి. చెప్పులు మొదలు హెయిర్ బాండ్ వరకూ ఫాషన్ ట్రెండ్స్ ను పాటిస్తున్నారు. నఖశిఖపర్యంతం అందంగా, ఫాషనబుల్ గా ఉండాలని తపిస్తున్నారు, ప్రయత్నిస్తున్నారు. చక్కగా, స్టైలిష్ గా నైల్ పాలిష్ వేసుకుని, అవి గోళ్ళు కావు గోల్డ్ తునకలు అనిపించేలా చేస్తున్నారు.

మరి గోళ్ళ రంగు విషయంలో ఎలాంటి జాగ్రత్తలు తీసుకోవాలో ఇప్పుడు చూద్దాం
. ముందు గోళ్ళలో ఏమాత్రం మురికి చేరకుండా చూసుకోవాలి
. నైల్ కటర్ సాయంతో గోళ్ళకు చక్కటి ఆకృతిని ఇవ్వాలి
. నైల్ పాలిష్ లో అసంఖ్యాకమైన రంగులు దొరుకుతాయి
. అయితే వాటిల్లో మనకు నప్పే షేడ్స్ ను ఎన్నుకోవాలి
. ఉన్న రంగును మార్చి మరో రంగును వేసుకోదలచినప్పుడు నైల్ పాలిష్ రిమూవర్ తో తుడిపి కొత్తది వేయాలి. లేకుంటే షేడ్ మారిపోతుంది
. మంచి క్వాలిటీ నైల్ పాలిష్ వాడాలి. లేకుంటే గోళ్ళు పాడవుతాయి. ఎక్కువరోజులు ఉంటుంది కూడా
. ఒక కోటింగ్ ఆరిన తర్వాత మాత్రమే మరో కోటింగ్ వేయాలి
. నైల్ పాలిష్ ను రెఫ్రిజిరేటర్లో భద్రపరచినట్లయితే ఎండిపోకుండా నిలువ ఉంటుంది.

Home Remedies for Pimples

Home Remedies for Pimples

Skin is a multi – layered epithelial tissue covering our body. The outermost layer of the skin is the epidermis which suffers from most of the skin ailments. There are millions of oil glands in the outer surface of the epidermis which secret sebum or oil in order to maintain the perfect ph balance of our skin. If and when these glands start secreting sebum more than required, the excess oil along with some dead cells gets accumulated in the pores or follicles of the skin resulting in a blockage. When bacteria join the team, the result is acne.

Home made remedies prove to be the most efficient in fighting acne, especially because they show no side effects for our body and skin.

Avoid MANI-PEDI Toxins

Avoid MANI-PEDI Toxins

A Manicure and Pedicure treatment can be a relaxing treat, but you may be exposing yourself to potentially harmful chemicals. That "nail salon smell" when you first enter the spa is the first sign of toxicity. The fumes you are inhaling come from a group of ingredients known as the "toxic trio": dibutyl phthalate, toluene and fomaldehyde.

All three of these toxins are absorbed through the skin and nails, as well as through the lungs when you breathe them in. Therefore, its a double risk. Not just the nail polishes, removers should also be non-toxic. Make sure you use less-harsh, Acetone-free polish remover.

By choosing natural, non-toxic artificial nails, you not only avoid toxins, but you keep you nail bed also healthy. Artificial ( acrylic) nails, and more permanent polish (gel-based) can cause temporary to permanent nail plate damage as well as put you at more risk of fungal infections.

Especially pregnant women should be very careful and not use these toxic nail products. Infact, everyone women who likes to use nail polishes can choose quick dry polishes instead of drying the nails in UV Light, which causes cancer. Cleaning the nails with a cotton ball dabbed in vinegar helps keep nails healthy between polishes and also keeps the polish on, longer.

How to do a Manicure at Home

How to do a Manicure at Home

This page will guide you through the steps of performing your own manicure, from choosing your tools to maintaining your polished nails long after they've dried.Picture yourself absent-mindedly reaching for a glass of water or flipping through the pages of a magazine, when something catches your eye: the sight of ten smooth, shiny, and perfectly manicured nails! Amazingly enough, these well-groomed nails can be yours without an expensive trip to the salon.

 

Shape Nails

Begin by shaping fingernails to an oval. Because you’re likely to cut too short, don’t use nail scissors or clippers. And don’t use metal nail files: the warming effect they create causes nails to split. Best are emery boards and files of corundum, glass or ceramic.

Filing back and forth results in rough edges.

File in strokes toward the center of the nail. The most elegant nail length is about two or three millimeters above the fingertip.

 

Remove Cuticles

To soften cuticles and soak away dirt particles, bathe hands in soapy water. Remove stains with lemon juice.

Never cut cuticles: it causes them to thicken and grow more quickly. Instead, apply cuticle remover, allow a few minutes for it to work, then carefully push back with a rubber cuticle hoof.

Remaining cuticle threads are best pulled away with tweezers: never cut them off. Between manicures, gently push back cuticles with a towel after washing hands. This makes weekly cuticle removal unnecessary.

Moisturize

To keep hands smooth and nails supple, apply hand cream and massage well into nails. Chapped and dry hands benefit from an overnight hand mask.

Alternatively, before going to bed, mix a simple, lanolin based skin care cream with boiling water, massage into hands and cover with cotton gloves.

If hands are moisturized and cuticles taken care of daily, all you need to do on a weekly basis is shape nails. What could be easier?

Tips On Buying & Using An Eyebrow Pencil

 

The first thing to be borne in mind while hunting for a perfect eye pencil is its shade. A wrongly chosen eyebrow pencil can be nothing more than a fashion faux pas. The trick to finding a perfect eye pencil is to always match its color with that of your hair and not your eyebrows. However, always remember to purchase a shade that is two shades lighter than your hair. For example, if you have dark brown hair, it is best to buy a medium brown shade eyebrow pencil.

 

After you have spotted the perfect eyebrow pencil for your brows, apply a little color on the back of your hand to check the exactness of the shade. Some cosmetics appear darker or lighter than the actual shade when applied. Testing the shade before buying will help you pick the right tone.

 

Just picking up the right shade isn’t enough to get that gorgeous pair of eyebrows. Correct application is equally important to avoid making a fashion disaster. For instance, if you have extremely light colored eyebrows as compared to your hair tone, remember to apply a light touch of mascara, before getting on with your eyebrow pencil.

 

Never use eyebrow pencil directly on your skin. Always use it on your eyebrows, over the original hair to reveal an authentic look. Application on the skin is a strict no-no.

 

Keep your pencil off the top end of your eyebrow. As the top arch is thinner than the rest of your brow, applying touch-ups in these areas may make your eyebrow appear all the more thick or clumsy. Use light strokes to accentuate the shape and underside of your brows, where the hair is thickest.

 

Never press your eyebrow pencil too hard on your skin, while doing the touch-ups. Doing so will create an unnatural look. Use swift upward motions during application and always apply as lightly as possible.


Tips to Make Your Summer Look Stay Fresh All Day

Tips to Make Your Summer Look Stay Fresh All Day

Makeup look fresh all day. Here are tips to make your look stay all throughout the day.

Tip #1

Use an Oil-Control Film If you’re getting a little extra shine or perspiration, just take a blotting sheet or oil-control film and just blot the forehead or anywhere that looks shiny. This will take off the perspiration and excess oil or the dewy look without taking off your makeup.

Tip #2

Dab on Clear Powder You can also dab a little bit of clear powder on your shiny areas. The clear powder works great because it won’t keep building and building on your summer makeup. Summer makeup is supposed to look light and fresh. Just take a little of your clear powder with a fluffy brush, shake out the excess so it won’t get on your clothes, and brush on the shiny areas

Tip #3

Spritz on Some Moisture Mix Another thing you can do that makeup artist’s and flight attendants put on some moisture mix. There are moisturizer mist sprays available in beauty shops or makeup or cosmetic stores. To start off, close your eyes, take the moisturizing spray, hold the bottle about three to four inches from your face and just spray it on. Spraying at a distance makes more coverage on the face. Spraying it on feels great and will actually set your makeup and not come off the whole day.

Tip #4

Blush On! To keep your summer makeup looking fresh, you can also add a little bit of blush. It looks very pretty and the rosy effect blends with the summer heat.

Indian Beauty Care Tips

Indian Beauty Care Tips

However, when my dermatologist took one look at the sudden outcrop of angry zits on my nose and asked me to get my blood pressure checked, it introduced me to a whole new (actually old) science of face mapping, which is pretty much the key to unlocking the mysteries behind problem skin.

Try it out: Here is how to decode breakouts in the basic areas.

* 1 & 2: Digestive System — Eat less processed or junk food, reduce the amount of fat in your diet, step up water intake and opt for cooling things like cucumbers.

* 3: Liver — Cut out the alcohol, greasy food and dairy. This is the zone where food allergies also show up first, so take a look at your ingredients. Besides all this, do 30 minutes of light exercise every day and get adequate sleep so your liver can rest.

* 4 & 5: Kidneys — Anything around the eyes (including dark circles) point to dehydration. Drink up!

* 6: Heart — Check your blood pressure (mine was slightly high) and Vitamin B levels. Decrease the intake of spicy or pungent food, cut down on meat and get more fresh air. Besides this, look into ways to lower cholesterol, like replacing “bad fats” with “good fats” such as Omegas 3 and 6 found in nuts, avocados, fish and flax seed. Also, since this area is chock-full of dilated pores, check that your makeup is not past its expiry date or is skin-clogging.

* 7 & 8: Kidneys — Again, drink up! And cut down on aerated drinks, coffee and alcohol as these will cause further dehydration.

* Zone 9 & 10: Respiratory system — Do you smoke? Have allergies? This is your problem area for both. If neither of these is the issue, don’t let your body overheat, eat more cooling foods, cut down on sugar and get more fresh air. Also keep the body more alkaline by avoiding foods that make the body acidic (meat, dairy, alcohol, caffeine, sugar) and adding more alkalizing foods like green veggies and wheatgrass juice. Another thing that most of forget – dirty cell phones and pillow cases are two of the top acne culprits and this area is what they affect the most!

* Zone 11 & 12: Hormones — This is the signature zone for stress and hormonal changes. And while both are sometimes unavoidable, you can decrease their effect by getting adequate sleep, drinking enough water, eating leafy veggies and keeping skin scrupulously clean. Another interesting point: breakouts in this area indicate when you are ovulating (and on which side).

* Zone 13: Stomach — Step up the fibre intake, reduce the toxin overload and drink herbal teas to help with digestion.

* 14: Illness — Zits here can be a sign that your body is fighting bacteria to avoid illness. Give it a break, take a yoga class, take a nap, take time to breathe deeply, drink plenty of water and know that everything always works out!

* So the next time you break out or notice dark under-eye circles, look to your face map: your skin is probably trying to communicate on behalf of the internal organs. However, do remember that, as with all medical issues, it is always best to see your doctor or dermotologist for a proper prognosis. This is just a general guide to head you off in the right investigative direction – just becuase you break out between the brows doesn’t always mean you have a bad liver!


Oily Skin Care Tips

Oily Skin Care Tips

Oily Skin Care Tips, Oily Skin Care Tips Teenagers, Oily Skin Care Tips Telugu: The incessant secretion of sebum or oil gives the face a constant shine and no amount of powdering can remove the sheen.

* Avoid using cosmetics which contains alcohol. Alcohol tends to make skin very dry.

* Choosing the right cosmetics for the skin is essential. Something which does not dry out the skin overtly is necessary.

* Frequent washing of face with a mild soap can inhibit oil production leaving the face cleaner and fresh looking. A good oil control face wash would be beneficial. Using a wipe from time to time when washing face is not possible also helps.

* Asking the doctor about whether the class of drugs retinoid is suitable for you. These drugs ensure that the glands produce less oil.

* Using an astringent solution after cleaning helps to shrink pores and reduce oil secretion.

* The third step after cleaning and toning would be moisturizing. An oil free moisturizer is essential to provide the right moisture in this type of skin.

* It would be a good idea to stay away from excessive oily and fatty food. Processed food with high sugar content and preservatives also affects the skin adversely.

* Sometimes being on a birth control pill may help control oil production in the facial glands, as it plays a role in monitoring the levels of androgen in the body.

A daily and consistent skin care and hair care regimen will help every woman do just that.

* Go to bed at the same time each night and get up the same time each morning.

* Apply your makeup with clean sponges each time.

* Regular trims will prevent split ends and give you a new, polished look.

* Give yourself a facial at home once a week or so. There are several facial "recipes" out there.

* Hair care is essential for good health as well. If your hair appears healthy, you look younger. Shampoo your scalp at least two or three times a day in order to avoid developing dandruff.

* When you shampoo your scalp and hair, use your fingertips to scrub your scalp thoroughly to loosen up dirt, oils, and debris.

* Rinse your hair with cool water and you’ll notice it has more body as opposed to rinsing with hot water.

* Before going to bed each night, be sure to brush your hair to remove tangles and redistribute natural oils in the hair.

* If possible, allow your hair to air dry rather than subjecting it to blow-drying which can rob your locks of essential moisture.

* Use a wide-toothed comb to comb out hair when it is wet to avoid breakage.

* Cleansing your skin is really the foundation of a healthy skin care routine. Surprisingly, most people go overboard in this area. Whether you have oily, normal or combination skin, it is important to clean your facial skin without stripping it of naturally occurring oils that are important for younger looking skin.

* Wash at night to remove makeup and debris with a cleanser for your skin type. Cleanse by using a dime-size amount of cleanser and rinsing your skin with lukewarm water. Pat dry. In the morning, simply splash a bit of lukewarm water on your face to remove any excess oils from the night’s moisturizer.

Remember: never use hot or cold water to wash your face, as either one can cause broken capillaries and make your skin appear blotchy.

Indian Beauty Tips for Good Skin

Indian Beauty Tips for Good Skin

A healthy complexion is born out of a healthy body. There are few people in the world blessed with the perfect skin color and tone. To keep the skin free from acne and pimples and to have a proper balance of moisture every day of the year requires following a strict routine and some easy homemade tips. Try out our easy to make homemade packs to get flawless skin without blemishes:

* Oatmeal Pack – Mix half a cup of oatmeal in half cup of water. Stir to make a thick paste. Wet your face with water and spread the paste evenly covering the face and neck area. Keep the paste for at least 10 minutes before starting the scrubbing process in brisk circular motions. Oatmeal is one of the best natural scrubs. It helps to get rid of dead skin cells. Wash off the pack with lukewarm water.

* Honey, Yogurt and Peach Pack – Use the pulp of a large peach and mix with a generous quantity of honey and yogurt. The paste can be stored in the refrigerator and applied on the face everyday before bath. Leave for 30 minutes before washing off with cold water. This pack is one of the best natural moisturizers suited to all skin types.

* Lemon and Petroleum Jelly Therapy – Take six teaspoons of petroleum jelly in a bowl and mix with two teaspoons of fresh lemon juice. You can also add two teaspoons of glycerine if your skin is very dry. This pack helps to cure dry flakes on the skin surface and prevent skin from further drying.

* Egg Yolk Pack – Mix the yolk of one egg with half a tablespoon of olive oil and lemon juice. Apply this pack on your face and leave to dry for 15 minutes. Wash off with cool water. This pack is not to be used by people with oily skin.

* Apply Orange Juice – Squeeze out the juice of an orange and rub evenly on the face during the winters. It helps to protect the skin from the harmful UV rays when you step out in the sun.

* Hand and Feet Care at Home – Your hands and feet work the most during the day and hence also require the maximum attention and conditioning. But often, in our quest for products for the facial skin, we tend to forget to care for our hands and legs. Mix a small quantity of lemon juice with sea salt. Rub this on the palm using a toothbrush to get rid of dead skin cells and hence stop wrinkling of the palm skin. For cracked heels on the feet, mix mustard oil in melted paraffin wax and apply on the affected areas. Leave overnight for at least two weeks before getting results.

* Seasonal Fruit Pack – Go for fruit facial massages once a month to help in proper blood circulation so that you can get a healthy glow to your complexion. For example, the juice of tomato is the best remedy for getting rid of tan on the skin surface.

* Cucumber Pack – Cucumber is one of the best natural ingredients used in homemade face packs. It is a natural astringent that helps in skin tightening and delays the appearance of wrinkles. Apply grated cucumber as a face pack or rub the juice of a cucumber on the face before washing off with cold water. Mix small quantities of rosewater and glycerine in cucumber to get a facial pack for sunburnt skin. Vitamin C and caffeic acid in cucumber help to cool and soothe the skin during the summers.

* Apply Coconut Water – Replace the electrolytes and water that you lose from the skin by minerals and vitamins in coconut water. Add coconut water to your choice of face pack and apply on the face during the summers.

Home Beauty Tips and Tricks

Home Beauty Tips and Tricks

Home Beauty Tips, Beauty Tips and Tricks, Crazy Beauty Tricks: Every girl deserves a bit of pampering some home beauty remedies.

* Feet are so often neglected, but there's nothing attractive or comfortable about dry, rough soles. For a great at-home treatment, fill a bowl with some hot water and soap or a foot-soak treatment, and soak those tired dogs. This will help soften your soles so they're easier to buff with your favorite buffer or cream. Follow by slathering your feet with some Vaseline. Put on some socks and leave them on overnight. You'll awake with the softest tootsies ever.

* Just because you're an early riser doesn't mean your eyes love mornings, too. A quick solution: Cold spoons. Keep some spoons chilled in the refrigerator or pop one in the freezer when you awake. Press the spoon against your closed eyes to help relieve puffiness.

* Everyone has seen a picture of a woman relaxing with cucumber slices on her eyes. That's because cucumbers help reduce inflammation and decrease swelling. You can put cukes on your cheeks and other puffy areas, too. Green tea bags also work well in reducing puffiness.

* Finding that your favorite nail polish has turned into a goopy, clumpy mess is frustrating. Heat exposure is the culprit here, so make your nail polish last longer by keeping it in the fridge.

* Lemon's so versatile, it's insane. For instance, you can soften rough patches on your elbows and knees with a lemon half applied for about 10 minutes. The acidity in the lemon exfoliates rough skin and even helps lighten dark areas. You can also use lemon juice to whiten fingertips and nails; just soak your fingers in some lemon juice for a few minutes and follow with moisturizing.


Tips For Smooth and Sexy Skin

Tips For Smooth and Sexy Skin

Tips Sexy Skin, Easy Tips Clear and Smooth Skin, Beauty Tips Smoothy Skin, Sexy Skin Guide: few tips for clear and smooth skin will help you slow down the signs of aging for smoother and sexy skin.

* Skin Creams: There are thousands of skin creams in the market. Some are very effective if used properly. The problem with most of these special skin creams is that once you stop using them the improvements revert. Look for skin creams that include alpha hydroxy acids, kinetin, coenzyme 10, or antioxidants. Researchers found these ingredients bring rapid results and the sexy glow back to dull dry skin.

* Personal hygiene is important - Sexy skin is clean skin. Washing your face before going to bed is one routine facial skin care that you should do. This simple personal hygiene will eliminate make-up, dirt, dust and oil on your skin and face. Going to bed with the dirt, oil and grime still on your face will allow them to lodge deeply into your skin pores causing blackheads, whiteheads and pimples. Your skin would not be able to breathe too because oil and dirt has clogged its pathway to fresh air.

Hair Removal Techniques

Hair Removal Techniques

teluguone vanitha provides best body hair removal techniques and information tips etc.

* Shaving: Shaving is a popular technique as it can be done at short notice and gives you instant results without much effort. Most women still continue to shave inspite of alternate techniques being available. This method is quick and cheap, though the hair grows back rapidly and when the hair grows back it is very coarse. You should soften the hair by washing the area with warm soapy water. Use light gentle strokes in the direction of the hair growth, to remove the hair. After you finish moisturize the skin. There are different kinds of razors, electrical, disposable, with twin blades and moisturizing strips. Choose one that suits you the best.

* Hair Removal Creams: These creams are manufactured in such a way that they dissolve the hair. These creams have an ingredient called keratolytic that will damage the skin if it is left on for a long time. Use a patch test the first time you are using a cream. But there is no doubt that they make the skin hair free, smooth and soft.

* Waxing: Though this method is a little painful, it is good to remove hair from the arms, legs and bikini line. Hair re-growth after waxing is slow and may take as much as two months. It is best to do a patch test for waxing as well. For best results one should continue waxing on a regular basis. Hair is removed from its root and when it re-grows it is finer. The problem with waxing is that the hair has to grow a little for waxing to be efficient. It helps to dust a little talcum powder on the area before waxing.

* Sugaring: This technique is similar to waxing. Here the removal solution is warmed and then applied on the area required with the help of a palette knife. The solution is applied in the direction of the hair growth. Then a cotton strip is used to cover the solution and torn away in the opposite direction and thus the hair is removed. Hair re-growth takes about six to eight weeks and it is fine.

* Electrolysis: This is a salon treatment and is expensive, but last longer and could be permanent as well. This requires a series of sittings if the results are to be good. A fine needle passes a very low electrical current into the hair follicle. After a session there will be slight swelling, redness and scarring which will take a few days to disappear.

* Laser treatment: This is another salon-based treatment that is expensive too. You need a few sessions for good results. Black activating lotion is applied over the area, to enable the hair follicle to absorb the laser energy. In this technique the best results are got from people with thick body hair.

Life Secrets and Tips

Life Secrets and Tips Life

Secrets and Tips, 50 Life Secrets and Tips, Life Secrets, Secrets For A Natural Life: Memorize something everyday. Not only will this leave your brain sharp and your memory functioning, you will also have a huge library.

* Don’t take life so seriously! : Learn to laugh at the little things and this whole “existence” thing will be a whole lot easier. Be amused by your mistakes and failures and be thankful that you learned your lesson and won’t mess up like that again. And most importantly do things that you enjoy! Life is not strictly business, it can be mixed with pleasure.

* Develop an endless curiosity about this world.: Become an explorer and view the world as your jungle. Stop and observe all of the little things as completely unique events. Try new things. Get out of your comfort zone and try to experience as many different environments and sensations as possible. This world has so much to offer, so why not take advantage of it?

* Learn to focus only on the present. The past is unchangeable so it is futile to reflect on it unless you are making sure you do not repeat past mistakes. The future is but a result of your actions today. So learn from the past to do better in the present so that you can succeed in the future.

* Smile more often. Whenever you get a grin on your face, your brain is releasing serotonin, the happy hormone. Smiling is the natural way to force yourself to be happy. Many people even smile for five minutes straight in the morning to get themselves in a great mood for the day. It is a very powerful tool that is utilized less and less as we grow older and need happiness more than ever. Just remember that while happiness leads to smiles, smiles also lead to happiness.

* Memorize something everyday. Not only will this leave your brain sharp and your memory functioning, you will also have a huge library of quotes to bust out at any moment. Poetry, sayings and philosophies are your best options.

* Constantly try to reduce your attachment to possessions. Those who are heavy-set with material desires will have a lot of trouble when their things are taken away from them or lost. Possessions do end up owning you, not the other way around. Become a person of minimal needs and you will be much more content.

* Remember people’s names so that they feel appreciated and for your own future benefit when you want something from that person. To do this, say their name back to them when they introduce themselves. Then repeat the name in your head a number of times until you are sure you have it. Continue to use their name in conversation as much as possible to remove any chance of forgetting it. If you’re still having trouble, make up a rhyme about their name: “Dan the Man” or “Natalie flatters me.” Get fit! It’s ridiculous to think that we have one body, one sole means of functioning, and people are too lazy to take care of themselves. Fit bodies lead to better health, confidence and more success with romantic endeavors. I’d say those are 3 very good reasons to get in shape.

* Even more specifically, live in THIS moment. Even 10 minutes ago is the past. If you live purely in this moment you will always be happy because there is nothing wrong in this split-second.

* Drink water. Hydration is tremendously important for overall health. Soda has absolutely ZERO nutritional content; it’s like pouring a punch of sugar and syrup into your cup. Instead, fill it with life-replenishing water. It may taste plain at first if you’re coming off of a heavy soda-drinking streak, but you’ll soon find yourself addicted to it. 10 glasses per day is optimal, how many have you been getting lately?

Homemade Beauty Tips for the Winter

Homemade Beauty Tips for the Winter

Winter beauty products should nurture, relax and soothe. Keeping a few inexpensive store-cupboard ingredients on hand means you will always have a nourishing treat for dry winter skin.

Homemade beauty products contain simple ingredients, so they are ideal if you like the idea of natural beauty but are on a budget. Make the most of your treatments by taking a little time out, combining them with a winter home-spa ritual, such as a warming cup of herbal tea and a relaxing soak in a hot bath. This not only makes you feel good but is great for fighting off the winter blues.

* Moisturizing Mask Cold weather and central heating can combine to dry out skin. Rehydrate with a homemade face mask. Choose from moisturizing ingredients, such as mashed avocado and banana, mixed with hydrating and soothing natural yogurt and grated cucumber.

If you are super dry or have mature skin, you could add a few drops of olive oil. Or, if you get spots, despite the season add some soothing and antibacterial honey instead. Apply the mask to the face, neck and decollete, and rinse off with warm water after 15 minutes.

* Body Scrub Skin on the body often gets bumpy and dry in the winter, also suffering from the change of temperature while being confined in layers of clothing. Exfoliating with a homemade scrub is an affordable remedy. Mix a handful of sea salt or sugar crystals with some olive oil. Massage on to dry skin, paying attention to the tops of legs, arms, bottom, knees and elbows.

Once you feel invigorated, shower the scrub off. Continue massaging as you shower and the grains melt away, leaving you with moisturized smooth skin. For winter invigoration, add a couple of drops of a refreshing essential oil, such as tangerine or peppermint. You can make up a jar of your winter scrub, which should keep for a few weeks. Use the scrub a couple of times a week and your skin will come out of the cold season already beach-prepped.

* Body Oil If your skin gets really dry and flaky but you find that rich body creams just stick to winter clothes, swap to homemade body oil after your shower. Choose light oils such as refined jojoba, almond or rice-bran, which are available in drug stores. These are inexpensive and sink in without greasiness.

For an aroma, try a couple of drops of your favorite essential oil. Aromatherapist Daniele Ryman recommends a safe amount being two drops of essential oil per 5 ml of carrier oil. As essential oils also smell strong, you may prefer to mix only up to about six drops into a whole bottle of base oil. This will still smell good when all over the skin.

* Therapeutic Bath Hot baths are relaxing and warm you all over when you feel chilled. Make an evening bath a therapeutic ritual, with the addition of fresh herbs such as lavender and rosemary. Herbs are particularly good because they infuse while you soak for a cheaper, healthier alternative to bubble bath. Others to try include warming, detoxifying sage; cinnamon sticks; and unsprayed rose petals. The fragrance will also fill your home. For a comforting winter bath, add a few handfuls of powdered milk.

Massaging the scalp also increases blood flow to the scalp, which may encourage healthier, thicker hair growth. Rub a few drops of oil into the scalp before bedtime and leave it on overnight. Wash with a mild shampoo in the morning and style as usual.

* Aloe

Vera Using a tablespoon or so of fresh aloe vera gel squeezed directly from the leaves, either alone or with a mixture of brandy and raw egg, may make your hair appear thicker. Apply the gel or mixture once every two weeks and shampoo as usual.

* Flax Seed

A leave-on conditioner made from flaxseeds and water may temporarily thicken hair. Soak a handful of flax seeds in water for five days and apply the water directly to your scalp with a cotton ball before styling.

Body Hair Removal Tips

Body Hair Removal Tips

Love being a woman? Well, it certainly is not easy to maintain so many roles and look your best at all times! One of our many pet peeves is removing unwanted body hair. I’m sure not one of us likes to discover unsightly hair growth just before a party or get- together! Well, lucky for us, there are plenty of options available to get rid of body hair. However, it’s best to know what works well for you and your lifestyle, and most of all, your budget.

* Shaving

The easiest and fastest way to remove body hair, it is also the most common and cheapest method of removing body hair.

Razors made especially for women ensure that skin is left smooth and shiny, at least for the same day.

Shaving has many disadvantages, though. It leaves behind ingrown hair at times, encourages faster hair growth, and usually the hair grows back brittle. In some cases, it may cause skin darkening, especially in areas like the underarms and bikini. It is clearly a temporary method for hair removal, so don’t expect miracles.

* Lasers

For those looking for permanent results, and also if you have the budget, laser hair removal is probably a great option of getting rid of unwanted body hair, from almost any part of your body. It is done using pulsed light energy from a laser that destroys the hair at the root.

It takes several sittings, however, as it works slowly and steadily, so you will need a lot of patience. You can, however, look forward to many hassle free years, with no worries of body hair returning at untimely events.

Though mostly safe, this treatment is not recommended for people with dark skin tones. Also, in some cases, it is known to have caused rashes, scars, burns and keloids. If you choose this method, make sure you go to a trusted dermatologist or medical spa.

* Threading and Plucking

Facial hair like eyebrows, hair on the upper lip, lower lip, and chin can be shaped or altered by threading or plucking.

While tweezers can be used on your own to pluck out unwanted hair, it is better to get threading done at a salon, by an expert.

These methods, however, are time consuming and the effects usually wear out within two weeks.

* Waxing

It is painful, but a lot of women swear by its effects. Not only can you remove more hair at a time, it can be done in a few swift moves and removes hair from the root. It is usually safe for most skin types and is considered safe even for the facial and bikini areas.

The effects last usually for about a month to two, depending on individual hair growth. Some regulars insist that if you only stick to waxing and not use a razor, the rate at which hair grows reduces considerably.

The downside, however, is that it is best to get it done by an expert, because otherwise it will be messy and, let’s face it, it’ll take guts to pull out the strip yourself. These days, you can choose the type of wax, sugar, chocolate, aloe and more.

Cold wax strips are also available in the market as DIY kits, but they’re usually not as effective as hot waxing.

And that's not all: the strong, stimulating properties of this root make it an excellent hair treatment.

* Sensitive Scalps

The strong tingling sensation of ginger may irritate your scalp, but you can still get the benefits of ginger hair treatments with a little modification. For hair growth, mix 1 tsp. of grated ginger with 1/4 cup of oil. Leave on your hair for 10 minutes. For dandruff, increase the amount of oil used in the recipe to 1/3 cup. Remember, you can decrease the amount of ginger and/or the duration of the treatment until you find the perfect mixture for your hair.

Drink Your Way To Gorgeous Skin

Drink Your Way To Gorgeous Skin

Drink a cup a day, and you will help keep your skin looking healthy and feeling great. You can get tea bags, loose tea, or powder to mix with water if you don’t like it as a hot drink.

* When you’re at home, make sure there’s a glass of water beside you whenever you’re watching TV, reading or relaxing. If the water is there, you’ll be reminded to it drink more often. When you go out, take a bottle of water with you. Make sure you drink it all before you get home. It’s a small effort to make for great results!

* It’s obvious, but you’d be surprised to learn how many people don’t drink enough water! This is a highly effective and free way of keeping your skin looking clear and healthy. I know that a can of coke or a glass of wine is often far more appealing than water, but go for the clear stuff (not vodka) and your skin will thank you. Try to drink four pints of water a day. This will cleanse all the toxins in your body, and you’ll quickly realise how much healthier you feel.

* If like me, you prefer something sweeter, try chamomile tea. It completely relaxes the body and the tea bags are incredibly effective as an acne treatment. Once you’ve made your tea, leave the tea bag to cool and then apply it on the affected area for about 10 minutes.

* As it is a natural anti-inflammatory it reduces swelling and redness extremely quickly. Organic tea bags are probably best for this, as they will have no additives that could irritate the skin.

* Aloe Vera is brilliant as it’s rich in minerals, vitamins and amino acids. It’s all good stuff for your skin and body. You can buy the juice by the jug full, and there are a number of different sizes. I’d recommend you buy a small one to try it out first, as this suggestion is a bit more expensive. You should feel the benefits inside and out. Aloe Vera gel is great to treat sore patches of skin and burns.


How to Use Sea Salt for Skin Care

How to Use Sea Salt for Skin Care

We use various expensive skin care products to improve the health of our skins. But not many of us are aware that the inexpensive table salt.

* Use sea salts to help draw toxins out of your skin, leaving you feeling clean and refreshed and your skin feeling soft and supple. Make a paste by combining water and fine grain sea salt and them massage the paste onto your skin before showering. Leave for 1 to 5 minutes and then bathe as usual, rinsing away toxins. This sea salt rub is also fantastic for those with eczema, psoriasis, chicken pox or other skin irritations.

* A natural exfoliant, salt can smooth away dry skin and leave you feeling silky and smooth. Make a salt scrub by mixing 1/4 cup of coarse salt to ½ to ¾ cup oil such as almond, sesame or jojoba. Add 20 drops of your favorite essential oils to scent. The mixture should be on the oily side. Scoop out generous handfuls and rub on the bottom of your feet. It's especially nice on the legs just before you shave (rinse it off before you shave though).

* Especially helpful for oily or acne prone skin, a simple salt mask can reduce inflammation, balance oil and speed healing from breakouts. Dissolve 1 part salt to 3 parts warm water. Mix with 3 tablespoons of pure raw honey. Gently apply to the face and leave on for 15 minutes. Rinse off with warm water.

* Soften tough skin with a moisturizing sea salt scrub. Combine 2 cups of large grain sea salts, 3/4 cups of water and 4 tbsp. of sweet almond oil, storing your scrub in a glass jar with a tight fitting lid. Wet the skin and massage the scrub over your entire body, or on problem dry areas. Rinse the skin with warm water and repeat daily.

* Salt crystal deodorants are commercially available in most natural food stores. Salt kills bacteria—bacteria cause odor. It makes sense. If you're a homemade deodorant kind of gal or guy (which is typically baking soda based), add a teaspoon of salt to the mix to help reduce the odor. Warning, ladies: it will sting a little on just shaved pits.

* Moisturize, fight wrinkles, combat acne and exfoliate the face with a gentle sea salt facial scrub. Simply combine 1 tbsp. of fine grain sea salts and two or three drops of lavender essential oil and massage gently into your face and neck. Rinse with warm water and then apply a light, oil-free moisturizer.

Naturally Beautiful Skin Tips

Naturally Beautiful Skin Tips

Look at beautiful skin through a health perspective and work towards enhancing the glow of your skin by addressing your total body health. Remember that good health is the best way to light up your skin and it is more effective than any commercial skin care product. Follow the beautiful skin tips given below and you will soon have radiant skin that will be the envy of others.

* Start an exercise regimen. Cycling, aerobics and jogging are excellent in keeping the skin toned, as they improve the blood circulation. Exercise will boost the health of the entire body and so indirectly head towards healthy and beautiful skin.

* Nutrition is a very important factor for getting beautiful skin. This is why it is imperative to have a healthy diet. Proper nutrition will nourish the skin and keep it radiant and fresh. Eat lots of fruits and vegetables and try to cut down on fast foods.

* Regularly go for a steam bath. This is the best way to cleanse your skin from inside. The steam opens up the pores of the skin and makes it easier to get rid of dirt and grime. Use honey and essential oils on the skin during the bath to cleanse the skin more effectively, for a better and beautiful you!

* Multivitamin supplements are very effective in enhancing the health of the skin. Good herbal supplements can fill up the nutrient deficiency, in case your diet is faulty. If you don’t want to take any supplements, then make sure that your diet regularly consists of plenty of vitamin C rich foods like oranges, lemon, lime and omega 3 and omega 6 rich foods like almonds and sunflower seeds. Also, eat plenty of oily fish like salmon and mackerel.

* Don’t over expose your skin to the sun. Use a high SPF sunscreen to protect your skin when out in the sun. Overexposure to the sun is one of the main reasons of untimely aging of the skin. Likewise, during the winter season, use a good quality moisturizing cream to protect the skin from drying.

* Excessive drinking and smoking also takes its toll on the skin. Indulging in such habits will only hasten the aging process of the skin and make it look wrinkled. Smoking and drinking contributes to toxin buildup in the skin, making it prone to blemishes and other skin ailments. So, for beautiful skin, cut down on smoking and drinking if not stopping it all together.

* Drink plenty of water and juices throughout the day. These will not only keep the skin hydrated, but also eliminate toxins from the body. Water is an excellent detoxifier and the juices will provide plenty of essential nutrition.

Your Beauty Questions Answered

Your Beauty Questions Answered

Q : I like to swim in summer but my permanent problem is the bikini line waxing. I hate to go to a parlor for a waxing and fear that hair removing creams would lead to a darkening of skin. What else can I do to remove the horrible hair?

A : For a more permanent hair removal option you have to think on the lines of diode hair removing laser treatment. This works best on coarse and dark hair and lasts forever (though some hair might reappear). You may need four to six sitting s though half that number might suffice. It is best to start the process before you reach a decision. In the meantime, alternate between shaving and waxing. Opt for a style of shim wear that is longer in the area as one choice, so just shaving may suffice.

Q : I bought purple mascara because it looked lovely in the advertisement. Now, when try it, the color just doesn’t show up. What can I do?

A : The advertisement was probably in a foreign magazine with a foreign model! Color mascara might look perfect on very fair skin under the right light but, for Indian skin tones, it is the blacks and browns that seem to get the best result. When you have very light or blonde eyelashes, these colors show more. Now, to get the maximum result from your purple mascara, use it with purple or pink eye shadow colors. Get a base coat of mascara that is normally white so that the purple shows more upon application.

Q : I like light fragrances but they just seem to evaporate on my skin, irrespective of the season. How can I make it last for me?

Lighter fragrances suit lighter skins this is not the color of the skin but the quality of skin. Yes, fairer skin is more prone to being thinner. If your fragrance is not lasting long enough, then start to layer it.

Use more than one product of the same fragrance. If you use the same soap, body cream, then EDT and pure perfume of the same fragrance it will definitely last longer. Also, your sweat might be hindering the fragrance, so one of my knees is much darker than the other as I had an accident a couple of years ago.

I tend to wear a lot of skirts and it looks peculiar. Please suggest a remedy. You have not written your age as, when you are younger, this kind of discoloring often repairs itself. However, do talk to a dermatologist who can give you a more real picture.

For a temporary remedy you can use make – up (a good quality foundation) applied sparingly and topped with a face powder. You can wear skin – color stockings of tights in winter and for summer you can opt for make – up. Another alternative would be a glycopeel by a laser treatment person as that removes the color from the top layer of skin.

Q : I love the smell of nutmeg and want to use it in my face packs. How do I know if it is suitable for my skin type and how do I use it?

Yes, nutmeg is a delicious smell but it can be a problem for sensitive skin. Never use more than a pinch of its powder that you can acquire by grating the nutmeg or by crushing it in a good pestle and mortar. When you have made the paste apply it to the inside of our wrist for at least 10 minutes to check for a reaction. Unless you have sensitive skin, there should be no problem with using nutmeg with a fruit of mud – based pack. Use a fragrance free antiperspirant. If you are using fragrances with smells of essential oil, you can try to use that essential oil add a few drops in your bath water.

Q : The lipsticks I buy always look different on my lips than it does in the case, how do I know if it will suit me, before I buy it?

There are two ways of checking the right color of the lipstick. You can see it on a white tissue. Thes is the real color of the lipstick. Rest of the changes appear due to the lips’ shape, size, and of course your skin tone. The inside of our wrist is often the closest to our lips’ color so you can check the shade on that area. Also you may request the shop assistant to let you try it on your lips, Carry your own lip brush for this and wipe with cleansing milk between trying two shades of lipsticks.

Q : I have puffed up under eyes. I have tried all kinds of creams and lotions and sleeping but nothing helps.

A : You have not mentioned your age as certain puffiness comes with age and the deposit of fat that builds up under the eyes. It could be water retention or even fat deposit. You can raise your head a bit more while sleeping as that would help the water retention. The fat would need cosmetic surgery. Rule out allergies and sinusitis before talking any drastic action.

Q I have ugly stretch marks above my bum. I do have a good figure but these show above a sari as also low waist jeans. What can I do for hiding these?

A : Stretch marks normally come due to sudden gain and ten loss of weight, so it is nice that you now have a good figure. For cosmetic camouflaging you can use derma color that is water and sweat proof. This would last for about 10 hours but it might leave some residue on your clothes after that, For a more permanent treatment you might want to consider laser treatment but do it only if you are above 22 years of age. Certain light treatments are affordable and would bring color back on the white lines.

3. To use papaya as an exfoliator, mash some ripe papaya pieces and mix it with coarse sea salt or oats and use it to get rid of dry and dead skin.

4. For those who have oily or acne prone skin or both, make a paste of mashed papaya with fuller’s earth; add a little bit of lemon juice. Apply it to your skin for 15 minutes and wash with lukewarm water. You can also use sandalwood paste or powder instead of the fuller’s earth. Regular application helps in oil control and prevention of acne.

5. To get rid of freckles and brown spots that occur due to too much exposure to sun, apply papaya juice to the affected area, let it dry and then wash it off with cold water. Regular usage will help in lightening of such marks.

6. To prevent ageing and sagging of skin, make a papaya mask with mashed ripe papaya, honey and rice flour. Apply this mask and keep it for 15-20 minutes and wash it with lukewarm water. Apply this mask every alternate day and you will soon notice change in your skin.

Papaya is one of the few natural ingredients that work well on any kind of skin, whether it’s oily, dry, normal or combination. All you need to do is to learn how to use it to gain maximum benefits for your skin type.

Your wedding day is the one time in your life when you want to look amazing. At your upcoming wedding, you will be the center of attention, with all eyes on you as you make your way down the aisle toward your future husband. Obviously, you want to look your absolute best. Prior to your wedding, you need to find time to relax, while doing something special for you. Here are a few tips that will help you look like a fairytale princess on your wedding day.



* Facial Care
If you have ever given thought to treating yourself to a facial, now would be the ideal opportunity. In fact, if you want to spend some quality time with your maid of honor, the two of you could enjoy a trip to the day spa together, a perfect way for thanking her for all her hard work and support. In addition to looking great, a facial will help you relax.

Today, just about every city has a day spa where you can be pampered, even smaller towns. An excellent option is a steam facial, which benefits you by releasing toxins and trapped dirt within the skin s pores. Now, one important thing to consider is that a steam facial should be done between three and six weeks before the actual wedding day. The reason is that as the skin is cleaned, a breakout is possible.

* Foot Care
In addition to walking down the aisle, chances are you will be standing for long periods of time while going through the wedding ceremony. Considering that you will be wearing new shoes, standing in front of your guests while exchanging wedding vows, and then waiting to greet each guest as he or she walks through the receiving line, you want your feet to be comfortable. Then of course, remember the dancing and walking you will be doing at the reception as well.

To pamper your feet, we recommend you start by getting a good pedicure several days before the wedding. By doing this, your toenails will look fabulous, which is especially a good idea if you plan to wear open toe shoes. In addition, you might want to consider visiting a reflexologist, which is a trained professional that uses a special form of Chinese wellness. With reflexology, pressure is applied to various points on the feet, which then benefits different parts of the body.

* Body Massage
You definitely want to make time for several massages. A full body massage is a great way to prepare for your wedding. Most importantly, you want to work with a qualified masseuse to help relieve stress, while making you feel like a brand new person. A massage the day before your wedding will relax both the body and mind, something you could do alone or with your maid of honor.
As a result, you will arrive at your wedding feeling refreshed and ready to face anything ahead of you. In fact, most brides agree that after a body massage, they feel confident and more in charge simply from being stress free.

Homemade Beauty Tips for Pimples

Homemade Beauty Tips for Pimples

Much as you may have heard that pimple is just a sign of your ‘developing youth’ and will leave you almost as soon as you’ve left your teenage years behind, in reality, pimples can come up almost at any age, much to your disappointment and terror. Internationally renowned beautician, Shahnaz Husain shares some of her beauty tips that can help you get rid of pimples and pimple marks right at home.

1. Rose Water
Wash your face twice a day using a medicated soap. Pimples usually occur in areas that are oily, so it’s important you use a special medicated soap that will help keep the oil glands in check. Once you have wash your face, take some rose water and mix it with an astringent in equal amounts. Apply this all over the washed parts of your face. Do this two to three times a day.

2. Do not Apply besan or multani mitti
If you are experiencing pimples, avoid using or applying besan or multani mitti. These can sometimes lead to clogging of pores that can further cause pimples.

3. Turmeric and curd
Mix some turmeric and curd to form a paste and apply this daily on your face. Keep it on for about 15 to 20 minutes and wash off.

4. Sandalwood paste and rose water
Add a few drops of rose water to some sandalwood paste and apply this on the forehead and other affected areas where there are pimples or pimple marks. Keep this paste on for at least an hour, before washing off.

5. Glycerine and rose water
If you already have oily skin, applying cold cream, especially in winters, will lead to further pimples. Instead of your cold cream, take one part of pure undiluted glycerine and mix it with four parts of rose water. Store this in a bottle and keep this in the fridge. Apply this mixture on your face each time you wash. Just before applying it, add a few drops of lemon juice to the mixture to lighten any pimple spots.

6. Curd
Take some curd and mix it with a bit of turmeric to form a paste. Apply this daily on your face. Keep on for 15 to 20 minutes and wash off with water.

8. Cucumber juice
To clean oily or combination skin, mix two teaspoons of cucumber juice with milk and lemon juice. Take a cotton pad and dipping it in the mix, dab across your skin and wipe gently.


Simple Pretty Eyeshadow Tips

Simple Pretty Eyeshadow Tips


It can look all blotchy, like a little chalky strip of color sitting right in the middle of our face. Sometimes it looks to dark, or too pale, or just wrong. Other times, our application is crooked and even mismatched.

* What’s the color of your eyes? One trick is to chose an eyeshadow that’s close to it, which will actually bring out the color. (See it for yourself on the model used for this photo.) Another trick is to chose a contrasting color, which will also make it stand out. For example, if you have blue eyes, choose blue or gold.

* Makeup primer makes it easier to blend your foundation and your eyeshadow, and also helps makeup lasts for hours. It’s particularly helpful in preventing eyeshadow from smearing—the reason why, in the middle of the day, you end up looking like a black-eyed raccoon.

* You should only use your highlighter (the darkest color in your eyeshadow palette) near the crease up to just below the brow bone. Never, ever actually “hit” the bone or extend past it. That’s just too overpowering and will make you look like a circus clown.

* Shimmer eyeshadow adds a gorgeous but subtle sparkle to the eyes. Unfortunately, it can also emphasize fine lines and wrinkles. If you want to use shimmer but are worried about aging skin, apply regular eyeshadow in a neutral or nude color, then use gold shimmer just below the brow bone.

* One common mistake is to load the makeup brush with too much color, so it scatters all over the eyelid and right below it. Tap the brush against a canister or the side of table, so you get just the right amount of color.
Another tip? Dust a little baby powder under your eyes. So, if any eyeshadow particles happen to scatter on your cheeks, it won’t cling to your makeup. Then, when you’re ready, take a big makeup brush (the type you use to apply foundation) and swish off the baby powder.

* Throw away the blenders that come with the eyeshadow. These cheap things distribute color unevenly, and don’t really help with blending. Plus, these pull on the skin, contributing to wrinkles.
Invest in a high quality makeup brush made of soft bristles. Yes, it’s expensive, but you’ll use it forever—and we swear you’ll see the difference it makes.

* The smokey look is sexy, but if overdone, can make you look like someone punched you. The trick is to keep the color below your eyelid crease, and really close to your lower lashes. The subtle shadow makes your eyes look bigger (but not bulging).

Tips for Beautiful Skin

Tips for Beautiful Skin

Wear sunscreen every day: Grandma was certainly right about the SPF. Wearing sunscreen daily can help protect skin against cancer and visible signs of aging. Stick with a lotion labeled ‘broad spectrum’ and that has an SPF of 30 at the minimum.

Remove your make-up every night: Ten points to Gran! Removing make-up every evening before bed is a healthy practice, as makeup contains chemicals and collects dirt and impurities throughout the day  all of which can be detrimental to your skin. If you forget a few times a month this shouldn’t have a major impact on the health of your skin.

Don’t overpluck your eyebrows: Grandma knows what’s up when it comes to your brows. Overplucking, just like overwaxing, eventually causes microscopic scarring at the roots of follicles, and over time, repeatedly plucked hairs may cause damage in the follicle that it will seal off and a scar will form, preventing a new hair from being able to grow.

Drink lots of water: Staying hydrated is always a good idea and will help you maintain a healthy fluid balance in the body which is important for every aspect of health, including hair and skin.

Wash your face twice a day: A standard that many follow, it isn’t necessarily the right move for everyone. If you don’t go heavy on make-up or aren’t prone to oily skin, once-a-day wash is fine too. Facial cleansing should be gentle, and should not include  overly aggressive scrubbing or exfoliation on a regular basis.

This can be counterproductive, causing overdrying and irritation, which can lead to the skin overproducing oil to compensate and in an attempt to rehydrate and  protect itself.

Girls and Body Image Tips

Girls and Body Image Tips

Girls don’t realize their importance, their value, their role in the society. Every now and then we have self doubts. Women who are homemakers don’t feel the worth in the work they do on daily basis. Oh, my mother feels I am a bad cook, but am I? My mother in law feels I don’t keep the house clean, is it? My kids feel I don’t understand, c’mon I have been your age.

This is self image, which is what we see from the eyes of others. We see how incompetent we are as daughters, mothers, homemakers, but are these true?

What are true are us, what we think about ourselves.

 Someone has rightly said, ‘Sometimes people don’t notice the things we do for them, until we stop doing them.’ Our self image should be a mirror to our thoughts. If you don’t respect yourselves, if you don’t love yourselves, if you don’t follow a passion, you will be everything that others want you to be, but yourself.

Men have been successful so far, business houses, entertainment houses, top chef, etc., and you know why? It’s because they had a mother or a wife who said, ‘Go pursue your dreams, I will take care of the rest of things in your life.’ Now it is their turn, but you, as a woman, have to ask for it.

Taking care of the family, being there for them, loving them, all of these are secondary to being yourself. Invest in yourself.

You have to be confident; you have to have that zest to do something. Family always comes first, but you need to have that little space for yourself.  Pursue a hobby, pursue a dream, do something just for yourself.

When this self image is positive you feel positive about your physical body. Try and appreciate your body. Highlight the part of body that you are proud of and camouflage the variation.

Dress smartly and wisely. Our image depends on how we are groomed. If you keep on feeling you don’t look good or you don’t dress smart, the other will sense your dip in confidence. This New Year, take a pledge to not be a part of fashion trend.

Diet for Healthy Skin

Diet for Healthy Skin

 

A diet rich in omega-3s and other healthy fats may help keep skin supple and hydrated.
If you have dry skin, you know that lotions and moisturizers help. But can certain dietary choices combat dry, itchy, scaly skin?

 

information about the perfect skin diet for healthy skin and better skin with a better diet healthy   living tips and more

 

"The most important part of the skin barrier is lipids, including phospholipids, free fatty acids, cholesterol, and ceramides," says Amy Newburger, MD, an attending physician in the Dermatology Department at St. Luke's Roosevelt Medical Center. "Skin without enough fat in it has a protein predominance and is kind of like a mess made just of twigs with no glue between them." Water easily escapes through a barrier without lipids, allowing skin to become dehydrated.

 

 

Polyunsaturated fatty acids are necessary for the production of intercellular lipids — the "glue" between the "twigs" in the stratum corneum, or surface of the skin. They also have an anti-inflammatory effect on irritated skin. Two types of fatty acids that are "essential" — that is, they must be obtained through the diet — are omega-3s, and omega-6s.

Foods that are high in omega-3 fatty acids include fatty fish like salmon, herring, mackerel, anchovies, and sardines, as well as flaxseed oil, some types of eggs, and grass-fed beef. Evening primrose oil and borage seed oil, which are high in omega-6s, help hydrate the skin and prevent water from evaporating, says Leslie Baumann, director of the University of Miami Cosmetic Medicine and Research Institute. "If you don't like fish or are pregnant and can't eat it, omega-3 supplements are a good option." Most Americans get enough omega-6s through their diet because they're contained in corn and safflower oils.

While anecdotal success of fatty acids for alleviating dry skin has not been conclusively bolstered by research, several studies have shown significant positive effects:
In a 2006 study of 50 patients with atopic dermatitis, 96 percent of those given capsules of evening primrose oil for five months showed notable reduction in intensity, itching, and dryness of the skin. In another study, of 29 elderly patients, borage seed oil supplements taken in pill form helped reduce water loss from the skin by 10.8 percent. And in a study of 118 infants with high risk of developing atopic dermatitis, those who were given borage seed oil and went on to develop the condition experienced a lower severity of the disorder than those in a placebo group. On the other hand, a 2006 meta-analysis of 22 studies that tested the effects of essential fatty acid supplementation found that no significant benefit was conferred on people with atopic dematitis by plant and fish oil supplements. More studies must be conducted before conclusions can be reached.
Vitamins and Minerals for Dry Skin

"Vitamin C is necessary for the function of the enzyme that causes collagen to form," says Dr. Newburger, "and collagen acts as a sponge for moisture." Newburger adds that copper and zinc are also necessary. Together, vitamin C, zinc, and copper keep collagen denser, which in turn allows for plump, hydrated skin. "Any good multivitamin with trace minerals in it contains zinc and copper," says Newburger. Zinc has also been found to have anti-inflammatory effects, which is vital for maintaining smooth skin.
Caffeine, Alcohol, and Dry Skin

 

information about the perfect skin diet for healthy skin and better skin with a better diet healthy   living tips and more

 

While consuming caffeine is unlikely to dehydrate you, it does make the blood vessels constrict, which is why it's used in eye creams (to reduce puffiness). "Long term, this means a reduced amount of blood flow and nutrients though the tissues," warns Newburger. "And if you don't have healthy circulation, you won't have age-appropriate cell turnover." In the case of alcohol, Michele Murphy, a registered dietitian at NewYork Presbyterian–Weill Cornell Medical Center, explains that although it's a diuretic, you'd need to be severely dehydrated to experience any noticeable changes. "The average person having a glass of wine with dinner every night and maintaining adequate fluid intake is unlikely to see any real difference," she says. Contrary to popular belief, drinking large amounts of water does not affect skin. "The water we drink that's processed internally isn't going to impact the external look or feel of the skin," Murphy says. Instead, it's the skin's outer layer that is essential for keeping moisture in.
Don't Overdo It
If you're already eating a balanced diet with sufficient fats, adding more fats or taking supplements is not necessarily a quick fix for dry skin. "If you're deficient in fat or certain vitamins, it does have the potential to affect the look or feel of your skin," says Murphy. "But supplementing beyond what the body needs has not been shown to improve skin."


How to Wear a Maxi Skirt

How to Wear a Maxi Skirt

 

Information about how to wear the maxi skirts, cute ways to wear maxi dresses skirts and trendy styling   tips for great looks maxi skirts and more

 

 

A maxi skirt is a skirt that drapes to ankle length. Maxi skirts can be flowing, tight fitting or shaped in various ways. A timeless classic that never dates, these skirts have a place in every woman's wardrobe, even if just for evening. And no matter your height, you can wear this skirt well.

 

Information about how to wear the maxi skirts, cute ways to wear maxi dresses skirts and trendy styling   tips for great looks maxi skirts and more

 

1 Try the skirt on under good lighting before buying. Walk in it, swish around in it and see if it feels comfortable first. If you're tripping up, it's too long. Then check how it looks in the mirror––the more streamlined styles will be the most flattering, while the flouncier Bohemian styles can add weight and don't flatter all figures.
* The texture of the fabric will affect the suitability of the skirt for your figure type. Try on maxi skirts in different fabrics to find the fabric you think looks best or drapes well on you.
* Just as pleats on shorter skirts don't work for all figure types, pleated maxi skirts may not suit your figure type. Don't despair, just try a different style of maxi skirt instead.

2 Match the top to the skirt style. The fit of the skirt determines the style of top you'll choose. If the style doesn't match, the overall look can be dowdy. Some suggestions include:Taller figures can carry a top that extends over the skirt.
*    Looser, flowing skirts tend to look best when the top fits well, as this tones down the overall enlarging effect of a billowing skirt.
*   For skirts that fit tightly, looser tops make an ideal contrast.
*    Cropped tops look great with maxi skirts, as the skirt keeps lengthening your body even though the top stops at your waist. A cropped top with heels can help elongate a shorter figure; indeed, if you have a shorter silhouette, make sure that the top stops at your natural waistline
*    Slouchy tops can look good with a maxi skirt but check the final look in the mirror before deciding. Sometimes adding a belt will improve the final look, especially a broader belt that cinches in under the ribs or around the waist. The slouchy top look tends to be carried off best on leaner, taller bodies.
*    Layered tops work well for taller figures

3 Decide whether to tuck the top in or let it sit over the skirt. There is no hard and fast rule on this––you'll need to experiment in the mirror. But here are some tips:
* Tucked in top.

 * Don't tuck in where doing so creates an unsightly bulge or somehow disturbs the flow of the skirt.
 * Thin cashmere or similar style thin width sweaters can look elegant when tucked into the waistband of a maxi skirt.
*    Layering can allow you to tuck in the t-shirt or shirt while leaving the other layers untucked, such as a cardigan, jacket or coat. Leaving the outer layers unbuttoned can be a good look, as the top of the skirt will be easy to see.
* Obviously, if the skirt is tight around the waistband, tucking in may prove uncomfortable. Instead, try layering or a cropped top.
* The texture of the top and skirt do not have to match but they must be complementary.
Consider color. There are two options here––monochrome (all one color) or matching colors. Avoid using colors that clash, as with any clothing

4 A monochrome style.

* Monochrome can look very slimming and elegant, as the same color all the way down your body creates a sense of elongation. However, be careful to match the shades well or it can look slightly off color.
* Don't mix patterns. A patterned skirt works best with a solid color top and vice versa. Definitely avoid mixing up spots, stripes, florals and diagonals.

5 Wear the right shoes. If you're petite, wear heels to give you the added height to cope with the skirt length and to elongate your silhouette. If you're taller, flats or heels will work with a maxi skirt, although heels are usually preferred for evening wear. Most heels will work well with maxi skirts but always check in the mirror before deciding.
* Beaded sandals are appropriate for a flowing, Bohemian maxi skirt look. Espadrilles also look very casual and beach-like.
* Wedge shoes look great with maxi skirts and give you added height to carry off the longer skirt.
Rugged styles can look great with many maxi skirts
* Avoid flats that are completely closed in, or loafers. These look frumpy with long skirts. Pointy toes and knee-high boots don't work either. And clogs and sneakers tend to look too chunky or dowdy.

How to deal with dark circles

 

Most of the times, the reason we get dark circles is due of lack of sleep — that is if you haven't slept for your regular 7-8 hours at night.

 

If you are addicted to too much coffee or alcohol, it's time you cut down on these two. These contain stimulants, which can cause dark circles!

 

Most people think vitamins are only for children and adults. But sometimes, if you have a certain vitamin deficiency, its effects can show on your skin too. If your daily diet is devoid of certain vitamins, then start incorporating more healthy food in your meals or pop a multivitamin supplement.

 

You skin under the eyes will not only get discoloured and dull, but will also look tired. So to prevent dark circles, your beauty sleep is essential.

 

Wear a sunscreen daily. Also, whenever you are stepping outside your house in the day, don't forget to use your sunglasses and if possible, wear a hat. This way the sun's harsh rays won't pigment the skin under your eyes.

 

In some cases, under eye circles are genetic or due to some allergy. You should get tested for this and find out the remedies from your general physician.


Goodbye to bad hair days

 

Here are a few tips to combat a bad hair day.

 

Use shampoos and conditioners according to your hair type (Don't shampoo every day. Wash hair twice a week).

- Use a dry shampoo that can absorb oil to clean hair without water. This can add volume to your hair.

- Trim hair every six to eight weeks.

- Rub dryer sheet or hand cream to prevent hair from sticking together.

- Pull back your hair and wear a headband or tie a high ponytail.

- A scarf or a wig can also temporarily solve the issue.


Natural care for oily and dry skin

 

If you have oily or dry skin that isn't very sensitive, do it yourself skin care remedies can be really good to try so you get to know what suits your skin type. Here are some methods you can try by yourself....

 

For greasy/oily skin :

Take either the juice of a whole grapefruit, a lemon or an orange. Mix this with dry oatmeal and make it into a paste. Apply this to the oily areas of your skin. Let the paste dry, and then wash it off.


You can also use a mixture of lemon juice and water (in equal quantity) and pour it in a spray bottle. Spray this all over your face, whenever your skin feels greasy. What better, you can also carry this around while travelling, it refreshes the skin gently.

 

For Dry skin :

Mash about half an avocado. Mix this with half a cup of honey and smear this mask onto the dry areas of your face. Let this mask stay on the face for about ten minutes and then wash it off with water.


Oily skin tips

 

Here are some of the steps that can prevent your makeup from becoming oily.

 

Wash Your Face:

Always wash your face before you start doing makeup. This is a standard beauty practice that many women ignore. Water washes away the oil that is already there on your skin.

 

Use A Scrub :

If you have oily skin, then you must use a scrub to clean your face before doing makeup. Scrubbing removes oil from deep within your skin pores and keeps your face stay oil-free for longer.

 

Don't Use Liquid :

Foundation If your face has a tendency to become oily, avoid applying liquid foundations. The best base makeup for your face is obviously liquid foundation but you have to forgo it because it can make your makeup look oily.

 

Powder Your Face :

Always apply dry foundation powder or gold dust to finish your makeup. The powdery nature of these cosmetic absorbs oil from the face. Use

 

Limited Concealer :

While foundation can be found in dry form as well, concealers are always oil based. Use limited concealer on your face. Remember, concealers are only to hide flaws and to give you an even complexion. Using too much concealer is a makeup mistake that many women make.

 

Carry Tissue Paper :

As a stop-gap arrangement, always keep tissue paper in your bag to soak oil from your face before it damages your makeup.


Tips for perfect eyebrows

 

If you have light eyebrows, you may need to draw over them or shade them.

 

You will need to choose the right shade of eyebrow pencil. If you choose a colour that's too dark, your eyebrows will look unnatural and stand out and if you use a shade that's too light, it simply won't help. So choose a colour that will suit your skin tone and features. Ideally, the shade must be two shades lighter that your actual hair colour... this way it will blend and still stand out.

 

While using an eyebrow pencil on your brows, remember not to colour outside your hairline. Stay within your boundary line. Also, always start with light strokes; if your use harsher strokes, the colour will be dark. If you make your eyebrows too dark, it can clash with the rest of your eye make-up. Never press the pencil too hard on your brows, especially the tip. Keep a light hand. Keep the pencil down on your eyebrow ... avoid using the pencil along the top end of the brow. Since the top arch of your eyebrow is thinner than the rest, keep the pencil as away as possible from this section


How to care for your feet

 

Choose the right footwear :

If you wear shoes that are ill-fitting, painful or loose, you're inviting foot problems. Your shoes have to fit just right, neither too tight nor too loose. Shoes that are tight are known to cause corns, ingrown toenails and aches. On the other hand, shoes that are loose, don't allow your your heels from settling in properly, increasing your chances of blisters, calluses and sore heels.

Always buy footwear at the latter part of the day because your feet expand towards the end of the day. Avoid wearing heels regularly — they can damage the bones of your feet. Instead, opt for a comfortable pair of flats or one inch heels from daily wear.

Shoes made out of synthetics don't breathe well because they trap moisture and heat; go in for natural materials like leather and cotton which keep feet cool. Try and alternate your shoes, so that both pairs have a chance to dry out before being worn again.

 

Wash your feet :

While washing your feet daily in the shower is a must, make it a habit to wash them at the end of the day as well. Especially if you wear closed shoes, the moisture and sweat makes it easy for bacteria and fungi to flourish between your toes causing bad odour and even fungal infections. Washing your feet will ensure that nothing dirty accumulates. Dry your feet well and use a foot powder if you want.

 

Moisturise well :

If you moisturise your body, why skip your feet? While the skin on your feet is rougher (because of the daily wear and tear), it is also more prone to being drier and cracked. Use a lotion, which is rich in cocoa butter, which is a natural emollient and excellent for feet. Apply it when you go to bed at night and wear socks so that the lotion can stay on yout feet instead of getting rubbed off on the sheets. Even if you're at home, make it a habit to wear socks....whether you've moisturised your feet or no. Socks protect your feet from blisters and absorb moisture.

 

Go for regular walks :

While we tend to be on our feet all day long, regular exercise for your feet is also important. Your foot muscles need exercise to remain strong, and keep tendons and ligaments flexible. You can use arch support inserts if you like. These keep your feet in the correct position and support your weight when you walk.

 

Have regular pedicures :

Treat yourself to a pedicure once a month at least. Soaking your feet and exfoliating your soles makes them softer and healthier. Whether you do it at home or a parlour, your feet will be happy for the pampering.

Tips for skin glowing in monsoon

 

We give you a few tips to taking effective care of your skin during this period.

 

Cleansing is very important during the rains. Use a soap free cleanser and a gentle moisturising scrub at least twice in a week to ensure that your skin is smooth and clear.

Use an alcohol free toner during the night after you've cleansed your skin. Due to the rise in humidity, your pores open up and this leads to the build up of germs and grime in your skin.


Even though it is pouring most of the time and it's cloudy, yet remember to use a sunscreen every time you step outside your house.

Use a serum or light lotion-based moisturiser that will hydrate your skin and also brighten it up. Avoid using heavy makeup during the monsoon. Instead opt for those that are waterproof.

 

Apart from taking care of your skin externally and cleansing, remember it is equally important to nourish your skin from within. Eat salads that are blanched in boiling water to disinfect them.

 

Vegetable soups are also a great option and you must also drink at least eight to 10 glasses of water every day. Know that your skin is always thirstier than you are!

• The night creams are thicker as compared to the ordinary moisturizers so you need to take small quantities.

• Take a tsp of the night cream in your hands and apply the night cream in gentle upward strokes and circular motions by using your fingers. 

• You should avoid applying this on the area around your eyes and also on the upper lids of your eyes before sleeping or else you will wake up with puffy lids.

Youthful liquid face lift with Derma Fillers

Youthful liquid face lift with Derma Fillers




In the previous article we saw what Derma Rollers are and what they can do for your skin. The other beauty treatment which many of our celebrities subject themselves to for youthful skin are the Derma Fillers.


Where is this given: Now this is similar to Botox as this also involves an injection on the face to the frown lines between your brows, the deep lines from the corners of your nose to the corners of your mouth, depressions along the jaw line, the sunken areas under your eyes, or the hollowed areas of your face, wrinkles and lines. Botox is injected around the forehead and wrinkles around the eyes (crow's feet) to stop muscle movement that results in wrinkles. It has nothing to do with the plumping smoothing effect dermal fillers have.

What is used: Dermal fillers called Hyaluronic Acid (HA) are found naturally throughout our body.  HA is a complex sugar that maintains its three-dimensional shape in the body by attracting and holding large number of water molecules. In the skin, HA fills the space between collagen and elastin fibers and replenishes the natural support layers lost with aging while delivering essential nutrients and hydration. You also have the synthetic fillers depending on which Cosmetologist you go to, as they use different brands.

 


What it does: By age 50, you have roughly half the HA of childhood. Fortunately, with dermal fillers you can restore the HA in the skin and give your face the volume and structure lost with aging or enhance your current features without any surgical procedures. It is injected in the specific areas and makes sagging skin plump causing it to give a youthful look. Depending on your age it may last up to 6 months to 2 years.

A qualified cosmetologist who knows what s/he is doing is very important as it requires experience to inject these serums into your face. There could be reactions based on your skin types and this treatment should not be done frequently. As a follow up for any cosmetic corrective procedure, daily use of well-formulated skin-care products and sun protection   is needed to keep your skin looking younger and healthier for a very long time.


Get that flawless look with Airbrush make-up

Get that flawless look with Airbrush make-up

 

 

We have heard of this new airbrush make up which is currently in vogue especially for the girls who are getting married and also for professional photo shoots .For the uninitiated airbrush makeup involves light spraying of makeup which gives a fine layer of make up on the skin and hides your pores and other marks for an even look- almost like the Photoshop effect!

Benefits of airbrush makeup:

1. It allows you the option to custom blend different foundation colors together,

2. Creates a flawless complexion,

3. Lasts all day and night, is resistant to everything from sweat to tears, and

4. It looks amazing both in photographs and on camera.

What do you need: For the airbrush makeup, you need to get an airbrushing kit that comes with a spray gun , air source and liquid foundation to match your skin tone.

How do you do it:

1. Plug in the compressor; make sure that you check your air source in order to make sure the spray gun is evenly distributing the foundation.

2. Do a test patch of a piece of paper or on the back of your hand.

3. The next step in the airbrush makeup application process is to shake the foundation to remove air bubbles then insert a few drops into the spray gun opening.

4. When spraying the makeup on your face, do it in slow, circular motions and continue to layer until you get the desired coverage.

It is better if you don’t do this by yourself and take professional  help from makeup artists from reputed salons as the airbrush kit and compressor required is expensive to buy and also not so easily available .Secondly without  proper experience it is not possible to get the flawless look and you could end up looking like a disaster. If you are not ready to buy an airbrush machine, you can also look into applying foundation with a brush, which will still give you a flawless effect.

Derma Rollers- How they work

Derma Rollers- How they work


 

We have a seen the rise of skin & beauty salons offering skin treatments in a dime and dozen. With their catchy tag lines in offering younger looking skin while luring women, one needs to be completely aware of what these procedures entail, like the Botox , Derma rollers, Derma fillers, Laser treatment etc. which they offer through their pamphlets.

If the above mentioned procedures are not done by qualified cosmetologists it could lead to major derma disasters, sometimes permanent disfigurement also.




Derma Roller

Today we will see what a Derma Roller does. It is basically used for treating acne, wrinkles, cellulite, anti aging, surgical scar removal and hair re –growth.

Basically what looks like miniature road roller with a handle, it has fine needles of certain gauge like .5 to 2mm on it.


Process of Derma Rolling - First the skin needs to be cleaning with surgical spirit or antiseptic lotion to prevent infection.

After the skin dries the derma roller is rubbed on the facial skin in sideways, upwards, downwards, diagonally. Each time the direction changes you have to lift the roller up first and start rubbing again.

The skin bleeds for a short time, but that soon stops.

 



How it works - The skin develops multiple micro bruises in the dermis that initiate the complex cascade of growth factors that finally results in collagen production. Histology shows thickening of skin and a dramatic increase in new collagen and elastin fibers.

Results - You cans see results after about 6 weeks, but the full effects can take at least three months to occur and, as the deposition of new collagen takes place slowly, the skin texture will continue to improve over a 12 month period. Clinical results vary between patients, but all patients achieve some improvements.

But after each treatment you are left with a reddish face and you need to stay indoors till it heals.

    A face masque should be applied to soothe the inflamed skin.
    The needle should be made of titanium and not any other metal.
    This should be done by qualified cosmetologists under hygienic conditions.
    People with severe acne should avoid doing it as this can spread the acne further. It is better not to do it on inflamed skin.

If you purchase the OTC Derma Rollers follow the instructions properly and ensure that you dip the roller in surgical spirit or antiseptic lotion before you do it on yourself.

గ్లిజరిన్ తో చర్మ సంరక్షణ

 

గ్లిజరిన్ చర్మ సంరక్షణలో మాయిశ్చరైజర్ గా అద్భుతంగా పనిచేస్తుంది. గ్లిజరిన్ ను చాలా కాస్మోటిక్స్ లో వినియోగిస్తారు. అయితే గ్లిజరిన్ ను ఉపయోగించే ముందు అతి తక్కువ మోతాదులో మాత్రమే ఉపయోగించాలి. అదికూడా చాలా పలుచగా ముఖానికి రాసుకోవాల్సి ఉంటుంది. లేదంటే ఇది చర్మానికి హాని కలిగిస్తుంది.

గ్లిజరిన్ స్కిన్ కేర్ లో ఏవిధంగా ఉపయోగపడుతుందో చూద్దాం:

1. చర్మానికి గ్లిజరిన్ ఒక టోనర్ గా పనిచేస్తుంది. రోజ్ వాటర్ తో మిక్స్ చేసి మీ ముఖ చర్మం మీద తుడవడం వల్ల టోనర్ గా మంచి ఫలితాన్ని అంధిస్తుంది.

2. ఈ బ్యూటీ వస్తువు చర్మాన్ని మాయిశ్చరైజ్ చేస్తుంది. చర్మాన్ని జిడ్డుగా కూడా ఉండనివ్వదు. పొడిబారిన చర్మం మీద ఎక్కువ ప్రభావాన్ని చూపెడుతుంది.

3. గ్లిజరిన్ మరియు తేనెతో ముఖం మీద మసాజ్ చేయడం వల్ల చర్మ బిగుతుగా తయారౌతుంది మరియు వృద్ధాప్య యొక్క ప్రారంభ సంకేతాలను నిరోధిస్తుంది.

4. గ్లిజరిన్ చర్మాన్ని తేమగా ఉంచుతుంది. ఇది చర్మ కణాల్లోనికి బాగా గ్రహించబడి, తగినంత హైడ్రేషన్ ను కలిగిస్తుంది.

5. గ్లిజరిన్ తో మరో బ్యూటీ బెనిఫిట్, చర్మాన్ని రిజొవెనేట్ చేస్తుంది మరియు డ్యామేజ్ స్కిన్ సెల్స్ ను బాగు చేస్తుంది.

6. మీరు అధిక చెమటకు గురైన మరియు జిడ్డు చర్మం పొదినా, పాలు, తేనె మరియు గ్లిజరిన్ మిక్స్ చేసి చర్మానికి అప్లై చేయాలి. ఇంకా మీరు గ్లిజరిన్ కు ఓట్ మీల్ చేర్చి స్ర్కబ్ ను తయారు చేసుకోవచ్చు. ఈ స్ర్కబ్బింగ్ తో చర్మంలో ఏర్పడ్డ అదనపు జిడ్డును తొలగిస్తుంది.

ఆహారంతో చర్మ సౌందర్యం

 

పౌడర్లు, క్రీములు వాడితేనే చర్మం సౌందర్యవంతం కాదు. ఆహారంతో కూడా చర్మ సౌందర్యాన్ని పెంచుకోవచ్చు.

తాజా కూరగాయలు, ఆకు కూరలు తినడం వల్ల శరీరంలో విటమిన్ల శాతం అవసరమైనంత మేరకు పెరుగుతుంది. విటమిన్లు చర్మాన్ని తాజాగా వుంచుతాయి.

ప్రతిరోజూ తప్పనిసరిగా పాలు తాగాలి. రెండు లేదా మూడు అరటి పండ్లను ఆహారంగా తీసుకోవాలి. స్ట్రాబెర్రీ, పైనాఫిల్, మ్యాంగో వంటి పండ్లు ఎక్కువగా తీసుకోవాలి.

ఎక్కువసార్లు మొహం కడిగేవారు ప్రతీసారి సోపువాడకుండా కేవలం నీళ్ళతో మాత్రం కడుక్కోవాలి. రిలాక్స్‌గా ఉండటం కొద్ది వరకు చర్మానికి మంచిది.

1. తరచూ స్క్రబ్‌తో రుద్దుకుని మృతకణాలను తొలగించాలి. స్నానం ముగించాక మొక్కజొన్న పిండిని చేతులకు రుద్దితే చర్మం మృదువుగా మారుతుంది.

2. బయటకు వెళ్లే ముందు చేతులకు సన్‌స్క్రీన్ లోషన్ రాసుకోవాలి.

How To Apply Gel Nails

 

Types Of Gel Nails :

Gel nails are usually made of pre-mixed ‘light-cured’ gels, which is a mixture of polymers and monomers. This is applied on the surface of the nails and then allowed to “cure” or dry with the help of ultra-violet light.

The “no-light” gels are gaining popularity these days. Unlike the ‘light-cured’ gel nails, to dry the ‘no-light’ nails, no light is required. Instead, all you simply need to do is dip your freshly painted fingernails into water.

 

How To Apply Gel Nails :

First of all, take a buffer and rub it on the surface of your nails. Buffing will remove the shine of your natural nails.

Now, use an emery board to shape the free edge of the nail plate in accordance to your finger nail size.

Hold the gel nail tip at an angle of 45 degrees. Now pour a drop of nail adhesive on the outer edge of your natural nail and stick the tip of the artificial gel nail against it.

Now slide the artificial nail gently and press it against the natural nail. Patiently wait until the nail adhesive holds the nail properly.

Use an acrylic bonding agent and apply a single coating of it on the surface of your natural nail. Do not apply it on the artificial tip.

Take two separate glass containers. Pour small amounts of acrylic powder in one. On the other, pour the liquid. Using a brush, dip it in the liquid and press it lightly against the dish. This process would help you release excess acrylic. Thereafter, sweep the brush on the powder, so that it carries sufficient amount it.

The ball made out of gel powder and primer should be big enough to cover your hair entirely. Now, place the tip of the brush at the centre of your nail.

Gently stroke it into the cuticle region and paint the front and sides well. This will help in filling the nail behind the artificial nail completely.

Now using a brush handle, tap the filled in area of the nail gently when it becomes dry. When you get the familiar sound of clicking, you will know that that your artificial gel nails are set.

Now, buff and file your newly created nails. Then, go on to apply a nail coat varnish first, followed by nail paint and a top coating. Also apply a drop of cuticle oil on the nail cuticle.

Within every 2-4 weeks, the gel nail enhancements need to be filled. The time period varies according to the growth rate of nails.

When talking about cosmetics and beauty treatment, one tends to focus on the face, hair, hands and feet.

But like so many other things in life, it's the little things that count. What's the point of having a perfectly made-up face if the skin on your neck is loose and mottled?

So let's take a look at how to take care of your neck, shoulders, arms and elbows so that they don't let you down.

If you use a foundation or a loose powder on your face, remember to apply it to your neck or there will be an unsightly colour difference between your face and your neck. Use upward strokes to apply a nourishing cream on your neck and throat every night.

In order to avoid flabby neck muscles or a double chin, hold your head high with your chin up and slightly forward.

Making Straight Hair Curly

 

It can be a bit difficult to make straight hair curly, but it can be done. There are a couple of easy ways to manage this. Begin by washing your hair the night before you want to debut your curly hair. Once the hair has been properly washed and followed up with a good conditioner, comb it out with a comb that has wide teeth. This will help you remove any tangles. If you have difficulty removing the knots, use a detangler especially made for children; these products are often better than those made for adults and have a wonderful scent.

 

Wash and Detangle. The first step for the curling straight hair is washing and conditioning of hair. In case you are going out later in the day, wash them after you get home. The next step following washing/conditioning is combing it through the length with a wide-toothed comb and getting rid of all knots. If you are facing any difficulty in detangling, use detanglers such as children’s hair detangler.

 

Transformation of the Hairdo (Crimped). Separate hair into four equal parts when you are eyeing crimped look. Thereafter, form tiny braids that are held with a non-slip grip ponytail holder. Keep the braids for as long as possible, for crimping hair to the maximum. One must ensure that the braids remain intact at all times.

 

When you wake up, remove the Scuncis or whatever holders you are using and gently caress your scalp. You want to avoid frizziness by not brushing your hair. You have two choices with this style: either keep the hair down or take a portion from the front of your hair and pin it back with a clip or barrette. Instead of straight hair, you now have a wild and curly hairdo that is very easy to create.

How to Wear Dark Lipstick

 

1. Size up your lips :

If they're medium to full, try a creamy, glossy, or matte lipstick, which is saturated with pigments for a bold look, says Rebecca Restrepo, a global makeup artist for Elizabeth Arden. If lips are on the thin side, uneven (i.e., asymmetrical, or the top is much skinnier than the bottom), or if you have a narrow, pursed mouth, go for something with extra shine. "Reflective balms and glosses have a sheen that helps visually plump the lips," she says--they're also ideal if you're timid about intense shades.

 

2. Line them right :

When worn alone, lip pencils create a matte stained effect; they can also help "anchor lipstick and prevent it from feathering, which can look unpolished," says Restrepo. (If you're in the thin-lip camp, skip liner and just apply your shiny or sheer formula.) Choose a shade that matches your dark lipstick; trace the border of your lips in short strokes (apply with more precision on the cupid's bow for sexy definition), then scribble the shade over your entire mouth.

 

3. Go easy on the eyes (and cheeks) :

"The lips should be the focus, but to keep the look put-together, do a soft, neutral eye shadow like beige, taupe, khaki, or mocha, a light coating of mascara, and a subdued pink or peach blush," says Avon global celebrity makeup artist Lauren Andersen.


Night Time Eye Makeup Tips

 

Start by washing and cleaning your face using a face wash. Next, apply a moisturizer to your entire face, using upward motion from the neck.

Covering the entire eye area from eyebrows to the lash line, apply a shadow base.

Now, apply eyeliner from the inner corner to the outer. Similarly, line the bottom of your eyes also. Use a black liner since it is night time however, you can go for brown or a smoke color too. Stay away from bright colors like purples and greens.

Smudge your liner using a Q-tip. Make sure that the liner is smudged and well blended and is not just a fine line.

Next, apply a black, plum, brown or any darkest eye shadow halfway towards the outer area of your eye and smudge it towards the halfway onto the eyebrow bone.

The eye shadow that you have applied on the smudged liner will stick to the eye liner and help the shade to set on the eyes.

Once this is done, apply a medium shade of eye shadow on the eyelids. You can even use gold, silver or bronze eye shadow to add glow and glimmer to your night makeup.

Highlight the brow bone area with colors like simple beige, light wheat, white or platinum. Avoid bright frosty colors.

Apply one or two coats of mascara. You can even touch up your eyelashes with a few strokes on the tips.

Clear up your under eye area of any fallen shadow. You can apply loose powder on this area before applying eye makeup and sweep it away once the makeup is done.

To further enhance the glamour of your night time makeup, dust glitter or sparkle around the eyes, on cheekbones or in décolletage.

How to add Glitter to Your Eyes

 

Glittery eye make-up is a great way to get in on the glamour of glitter, without making your face and outfit look like a disco ball. The first step is to pick a complementing colour of glitter. Silver tones go better with cooler skin tones while, gold and bronze complement warmer tones. Pearlescent colours can be easily matched to almost everything in between.

Eye pencil :

1. With the help of your glitter eyepencil, trace the lower lid and the waterline. Make sure to outline your eyes properly by using gentle swipes. Use colours like silver, green and blue.

2. Aside from using glitter eye liner, you can also opt for a normal eye liner for drawing out the lines on your eyes and then follow it up with glitter eyeshadow for a sparkling finish.

Eye shadow :

1. To apply eyeshadow glitter, take a brush full of eyeshadow and sweep it across your eyelid (do this at least 5 times).

2. Cover the lower half of your eyelid, carefully avoiding the very inside corner of your eye.

3. If you wish, you can cover your entire eyelid and extend the glitter eyeshadow slightly beyond your eyelid, towards the outside end of your eyebrow.

4. Do not apply the eyeshadow any further upward than your eyelid, or your face may outshine the lights of the club and detract from the beauty of your eyes.

5. You can also attempt using your fingertips to apply the glitter.

6. Once you are done using the glitter, with the help of a blow-drier, carefully blow off all the excess glitter from the rest of your face.


Change your skin color with Makeup

 

Prianka Kumar, make-up expert, says, “For the Indian skin tone, one can opt for bronzers with a touch of peach, golden and brown. Mix the glitter powder with baby oil or a moisturiser and apply on the areas you wish to highlight.”


1. Plan your outfit for the evening. This will help you in deciding what parts of the body to highlight with the glitter. These parts of the body are known as “access points”. Choose a glitter variant that will not shed on your clothes.

2. Dab the make-up brush in the body glitter. Press lightly on the glitter so that you don’t bend the brush.

3. Tap the brush on the inside of the glitter to knock off any excess glitter and highlight the parts with a light dusting of the body glitter.

4. Pick your two favourite body parts. To draw attention, apply glitter on the shoulders, back or the collarbone area. Do not apply too much glitter, you might end up looking ridiculously shiny!

5. Do not highlight any area with more than one brush stroke. Try to apply as minimally as you can.


Tips for sparkling lips

 

Choose a sparkling lip gloss or loose glitter powder for the perfect shine. Pink and nudes are best suited.

1. To help your lip make-up last longer, begin by blending a small amount of concealer or foundation over the edge of your lips with your fingertips.

2. Outline the lip with a lip pencil and fill in with the pencil to give the lipstick a base.

3. Apply a coat of lipstick and then dab the loose glitter in the middle of the lips to enhance the pout.

4. Opt for colours that are not too gaudy.


Tips for Dry Skin

 

1. Wash your face: twice a day without soap (morning/evening).

2. Avoid hot water: when washing face and during showers.

3. Skin cleansers: use very gentle cleansers special for dry skin type.

4. Skin toners: if used, avoid skin toners that contain alcohol.

5. Skin moisturizers: use rich moisturizers in winter time and lighter in summer, check how to choose moisturizers.

6. Skin exfoliators: maximum once per week and only gentle exfoliators, follow with moisturizers.

7. Drink plenty of water: to keep your body hydrated,

8. Healthy diet: with plenty of fresh foods, rich in Omega-3 (salmon and flax seeds).


Highlight your cheekbones

 

Before you begin dabbing glitter on your cheeks, take a tiny amount of petroleum jelly and spread it on your cheekbones. This will keep the glitter in place and also lend a nice sheen to the cheeks.

1. If you are using glitter powder, apply it with a small brush. Use the same sweeping motion that is used in applying a traditional blush to the apples of your cheeks.

2. If you are using gel glitter, take a little on your fingertips and gently spread it over the highest peaks of your cheek bones.

3. Always apply foundation before using glitter.

4. Consider using a light-toned colour glitter during the day, and darker-toned glitter for a more dramatic evening look.


IS TOSSING OUT OLD MAKEUP A GOOD THING?

 

You did a right job!!! "Lip products and Mascara are not just Beauty products but also risky ones. Don't share those with others, and replace them frequently to avoid infection ---Gloss and Mascara, every three months, and Lipsticks every six months. Liquid Foundation should also get refreshed every six months, or sooner if the texture or smell changes; powders like Blush and Eyeshadow can last a year but not beyond.

Tips for Nail Art Stay Longer

 

1. Choose a comfortable nail length Choose a length for your nails that allows you to comfortably do any activity while avoiding breakage. A chipped nail can sometimes be a painful experience. If you play an instrument or your job involves a lot of typing on the keyboard, a shorter nail length is the way to go. Avoid going too long.

2. Prep your nails This nails involves doing most of the things they do at nail salons. Firstly, remove any nail polish remnants using a quality nail polish remover. Next, buff your nails to smoothen the surface. Cut your cuticles, if required, to make nails look cleaner. Lastly, file your nails to the shape and size of your preference.

3. Scrub and moisturise After you are finished with all the buffing and filing, wash your hands with an exfoliating scrub to get rid of all the dust and dead skin. Apply a moisturising lotion to replenish your hands and cuticles. The lotion around your nails will help avoid any extra nail paint form sticking to your skin.

4. Never forget the base coat and the top coat A good base coat and top coat are secrets to a well-kept manicure. They not only help your nail paint last longer but also create a barrier between your nail and the nail polish, helping to avoid any staining from occurring.

5. Choose a quality polish You cannot possibly expect your nail polish to be long lasting if you opt for cheap nail paints. Do not randomly purchase a nail paint from your nearest drug or general store. Go to a proper cosmetic store, know which one works best and last longer and then pick your colour.

6. Dry in between coats Yes, it can take some time but drying of each layer of nail polish is vital. Also, make sure to let the nails dry after the top coat. This will give you a clean and and smudge-free manicure.

7. Give your nails an icy dip Dipping your nails in a cold bowl of water will help the nail polish harden and prevent any kind of smudging and damage from happening. This won’t benefit completely wet nails, so wait for your nails to semi-dry and then go for the dip.

Home Remedies to fight Acne

Home Remedies to fight Acne /Pimples

Teenage…. The best years of one’s life also the worst especially if the worst in has a name like ‘Acne’. Almost all of us have been plagued by these breakouts at some point of time in life. Acne is not exclusively a young person’s problem; an estimated 80 per cent of all teenagers are thought to suffer from it to some degree. Acne is caused by the increased production of hormones that stimulate the secretion of an oily substance called sebum in the skin. When this oily sebum gets trapped in the hair follicle, it clogs the pores (or the tiny skin openings). If the clogged pore bursts then bacteria spreads to the nearby tissue forming a pimple. This leads us to the next question;

What causes Acne and pimples ?

There can be a lot of reasons that cause Acne and pimples. Imbalance in the hormones, Hereditary factors, Stress, poor dietary habits, pollution etc. Although in most cases, acne does disappear over a period of time by itself, but it can certainly be bad while it lasts. And to top that if it leaves behind scars and blemishes then it certainly makes matters worse. Remember: Squeezing, touching or pricking the pimples or blackheads would increase the sebum production and also let the bacteria spread on the surface of the skin, leading to more acne. It also leads to a permanent pigmentation and the spots remain for a long time even after the pimple is healed. Although there are a lot of over the counter remedies like, soaps, creams and lotions available, they generally come with a price tag that include side effects. Remember to drink lots of water and eat healthy food. Check out some home remedies that are easy to use, economical, safe and more importantly come without any side effects.

Effective Home Remedies :

Use an ice cube. It helps shrink the redness and inflammation of a pimple and make it less noticeable.

Skin exfoliation is the most important beauty treatment that you should follow in order to maintain healthy, glowing and pimple free skin. Use a little granulated brown sugar as a scrub. It is one of the mildest natural exfoliator. It removes the dead cells, dirt, sebum and impurities from the pores, which causes pimples.

Cucumber works as astringent. Grate a small piece and squeeze out the juice. Chill it the refrigerator and dab it on your face using cotton wool. Wash it off after 15 minutes. You can even pour this juice into an ice tray, freeze and use it to rub the cube all over your face in case of severe acne. The cooling and soothing effect of cucumber will help in treating acne.

Garlic is said to be a wonder cure for acne. Crush and rub a raw garlic pod on and around the problem areas several times a day, you can clear up your skin. You may also eat three pods of raw garlic once a day for a month to see results. The garlic pods purify the blood, which help keeping pimples away. Try taking garlic pills if you are averse to eating it raw.

Neem leaves have been known to be the magic word to cure skin problems since ancient days. You may boil some leaves in a bowl of water and mix that decoction in your bath water or use it to wash your face. Fresh neem leaves can also be ground to a fine paste and mixed with some a pinch of turmeric and some multani mitti (fullers earth) to make a face pack and wash of later.

A face pack made out of besan (chick pea flour) turmeric, honey, sandal wood powder mixed in some raw milk or fresh yogurt (curd) is very soothing on the skin and helps tighten the pores. Apply this face pack 10 to 15 minutes before going for your bath.

The acidic property of lemon or tomatoes can be very useful in treating acne, scars and blemishes. Lemons clean out the dirt accumulated on the pores and will harden the sebum. Just take a slice of lemon or tomato and rub it on the affected area and leave it for few hours before rinsing your face with clean water. Another way to treat acne is to mix lemon juice with rose water in equal amount and then with this solution wash the affected area properly. You can use tomato juice and sandal wood powder too. Dab it in small dots on the affected area and leave it overnight. Wash it off the next morning.

The acidic property and high Vitamin C present in an orange juice as well as its peel can be used to treat acne but it is better to use the orange peel. Chop up orange peel when in season and dry under the sun. Grind finely and store the powder in an air tight container for further use. Add water to this powder to make a paste and then apply it on the affected area. Leave it on for ten to fifteen minutes and then wash your face with warm water.

తాజా టమాటా రసం ఓ టేబుల్‌స్పూను తీసుకుని నాలుగు చుక్కల నిమ్మరసం కలపాలి. ఇందులో దూదిని ముంచి ముఖమంతా రాసుకోవాలి. సవ్యదిశలో మర్దన చేయాలి. పదిహేను నిమిషాల తరవాత చల్లనినీటితో కడిగేసుకోవాలి. చర్మంపై పేరుకున్న అధికజిడ్డు, మురికి వదులుతుంది.

Skin stretched and marked

 

Stretch marks are often the result of the rapid stretching of the skin associated with rapid growth or rapid weight changes. It is a form of scarring on the skin. They are caused by tearing of the dermis, which over time may diminish, but will not disappear completely. Stretch marks may also be influenced by hormonal changes associated with puberty, pregnancy, bodybuilding, hormone replacement therapy, etc. Well, it is shocking to know that stretch marks are also due to the odds of our genes

 

The main reason being pregnancy thus concluding that women are more prone to stretch marks than men. Other factors include sudden gain or loss of weight, stress, hereditary factors and changes in physical environment.

 

As our skin consists of three layers: Epidermis, Dermis and Hypodermis. When the skin is stretched the collagen is weakened and its normal production cycle is interrupted and damaged, this ultimately results in fine scars on top layer of skin.

 

Fortunately there are several natural methods to reduce the appearance of stretch marks:

• Take a slice of Potato and rub over the scar and then wash with Lukewarm water

Aloe Vera is very effective in treating the skin problems, directly rub the Aloe gel

Lemon juice is naturally acidic which helps in healing and reducing stretch marks, allow the skin to soak in lemon juice and then rinsed off with warm water

• Massage with warm olive oil over stretch marks will improve blood circulation and thus heal the scars

Cocoa butter is the best home remedy. Applying cocoa butter over the affected area twice a day will remarkably reduce the visibility of the scars

• Apply whipped egg whites over scarred skin, after drying, rinsed off with cold water

Castor oil is used for many skin problems such as wrinkles, age spots, moles, dark spots and pimples. Castor oil is gently massaged over affected area, wrapped up with clean cloth and heat is applied

Stay Spotless!! Take Care!!

How to Do Manicure at Home

 

WHAT YOU NEED

Nail polish remover

Cotton balls

Q-tips

Nail clipper/scissors

Emery board

Cuticle oil

Cuticle stick

Nail polish

Topcoat/basecoat

HOW TO GIVE YOURSELF A MANICURE

1. Clean your hands & nails thoroughly.

Using soap and water, get underneath the nails to remove any dirt. If you have nail polish on, use nail polish remover and a cotton ball to completely clean the nail surface. Use a Q-tip dipped in nail polish remover to clear anything left around the edges.

2. Trim and shape your nails.

If your nails are long, trim them using a nail clipper or pair of nail scissors. Once complete, file raggedy edges down with an emery board. Round or square off the nail with long, smooth strokes of the emery board against the nail tip (this prevents nail splitting, which can happen if you file using short strokes).

3. Soak cuticles.

To soften your cuticles so you can push them back with a cuticle or orangewood stick, soak your fingertips in soapy water for a few minutes. Once the cuticles look whiteish, grab your tool of choice and gently push the cuticle into the nail bed. This process shouldn't hurt, so if you feel pain, stop. Also, never cut or tear your cuticle; that could lead to infection.

4. Pick your polish.

Start with a clear basecoat to protect your nails. Use three stokes of polish on each nail: Middle, then on each side. Let the basecoat dry, then apply colored polish in the same way. Be sure to let the polish dry completely in between coats. Once you've applied all layers, add a topcoat to protect the color. Quick-dry polish helps set the color. Remove any polish that landed on your skin with a Q-tip dipped in nail polish remover.

చర్మ సంరక్షణ కోసం జాగ్రత్తలు

చర్మాన్ని అందంగా, ఆరోగ్యంగా కాపాడుకోవాలంటే క్రీంలు, ప్యాక్ లాంటివి వాడకుండ కొన్ని జాగ్రత్తలు తీసుకుంటే సరిపోతుంది. మరి అవేమిటో ఒకసారి చూద్దామా...!

పండ్లు, కూరగాయలు లాంటి ఒమేగా 3 ఫ్యాటీ ఆమ్లాలు ఉండేవి తినాలి. B12, విటమిన్ E, ఇనుము వంటి పోషకాలు ఉండే పదార్థాలు తీసుకోవడం వల్ల చర్మంలో సహజ నూనెలు ఉత్పత్తి అవుతాయి. అదే విధంగా ఆరు బయట కనీసం అరగంట వ్యాయామం చేయడం వల్ల శరీరంలో రక్తప్రసరణ పెరిగి చర్మకణాలు ఆరోగ్యంగా మారుతాయి. అదే విధంగా రసాయనాలు తక్కువగా ఉండే క్లెన్సర్ ని ఎంచుకుని రోజుకు రెండు సార్లు చర్మాన్ని శుభ్రం చేసుకుంటే చర్మం నిర్జీవంగా మారకుండా ఉంటుంది. ఈ విధంగా చేయడం వలన చర్మాన్ని ఆరోగ్యంగా కాపాడుకోవచ్చు.


వంటింట్లో బ్యూటీ పార్లర్

 

చర్మం తాజాగా కనిపించాలన్నా, జుట్టు ఒత్తుగా పెరగాలన్నా కూడా రకరకాల రసాయనాలను వాడుతుంటాం. వాటి కోసం చాలా డబ్బుని వృధా చేస్తుంటాం. మరి అలా కాకుండా మన వంటిట్లో ఉండే వస్తువులతోనే మన చర్మం అందంగా, తాజాగా చేసుకోవచ్చు. అదెలాగో తెలుసుకుందామా..!

నారింజ పండు తొక్కల్ని ఎండబెట్టి పొడి చేసుకొని, దానిని పెరుగులో కలిపి ముఖానికి రాసుకుంటే చర్మం కాంతివంతంగా తయారవుతుంది. పొడి చర్మానికి పుదీనా ఆకులతో చేసిన టోనర్ ఎంతగానో ఉపయోగపడుతుంది. గుప్పెడు పుదీనా ఆకులు తీసుకుని, నీటిలో మరిగించాలి. కాస్త వేడి చల్లారాక నేరుగా ముఖానికి రాసుకుని, ఆరాక శుభ్రపరుచుకోవాలి. లేదంటే ఆ ద్రవాన్నిఓ ఐస్ ట్రేలో పోసి డీప్ ఫ్రిజ్ లో ఉంచితే, ఐసు ముక్కల్ని అలంకరణకి ముందు ముఖానికి రుద్దుకోవచ్చు. ఒక కోడిగుడ్డు సొనకి చెంచా నిమ్మరసం, తేనే కలిపి, ఆ మిశ్రమాన్ని ముఖానికి రాసుకుని పావుగంటయ్యాక గోరువెచ్చని నీళ్ళతో కడిగేసుకుంటే మంచి ఫలితం ఉంటుంది. మెంతుల్ని ముందురోజు రాత్రి నానబెట్టుకొని ఉదయాన్నే మెత్తగా చేసుకోవాలి. దీనికి పెద్ద చెంచా తేనే కలుపుకొని ముఖానికి పూతలా వేసుకొని అరగంటయ్యక కడిగేసుకోవాలి. ఇలా తరచూ చేస్తుంటే ముఖం కాంతివంతంగా కనిపించడం ఖాయం.

Home Waxing Tips

 

1. Let hair grow to the recommended length. Most kits recommend hair be at least 1/4 inch long. This is necessary as the wax needs to be able to grab the hair. If hair is too short then the wax cannot surround the hair or remove it. But if the hair is too long then it will break off and not be removed entirely from the skin.

2. Exfoliate the area that will be waxed 24 hours in advanced with a buff puff or body scrub. Exfoliation will get rid of any dead skin cells. This allows the wax to easily attach to hair and not pull off any skin when it is removed. However, if you exfoliate just before waxing then the new skin will be sensitive and become inflamed and irritated.

3. Take an ibuprofen at least an hour before waxing. Waxing can hurt and an ibuprofen can make a difference.

4. Wash and dry skin thoroughly. Apply baby powder to ensure that the skin is dry. Baby powder will also take care of any oil on the skin.

5. Lay down an old towel or newspapers where you will be waxing. This will catch any wax should it drip onto the floor and makes clean up very easy. With newspapers you simply need to gather them up and recycle. This eliminates the need to scrape wax off the bathroom floor.

6. Heat the wax to the specified temperature and keep it at this temperature. A small wax heater or water bath can be the easiest way to ensure the wax is at the correct working temperature. If the wax is too hot then it will burn skin and drip everywhere. If the wax is too hard or cool it will be difficult to apply and will not grab the hair for removal. This can be the most difficult part of home waxing. If using a microwave to heat the wax, reheating it every few minutes can help ensure the wax is at the proper temperature. The wax should be between 43 and 68 degrees Celsius.

7. Apply the wax with the provided spatula or roll on. To be as neat as possible, scrap off the spatula after each application. If wax is left on the spatula then it can begin to harden and this will make it very difficult and messy to apply additional wax. It is not necessary to apply large globs of wax. Smaller amounts applied to small areas can result in a much better waxing job. Roll ons make less of a mess than spatulas but most kits will contain spatulas. If waxing is a frequent activity then purchasing a roll on is a good idea.

8. Apply the strip provided in the kit to the waxed area following the manufacturer's instructions. Make sure to smooth out the strip several times before pulling it off. Ensure that the strip completely covers all of the wax. If the edges of the wax are not covered cleanup on your skin difficult can be difficult. Gently rubbing the strip onto the wax helps it adhere.

9. Grab the bottom end of the strip and pull in the opposite direction of the hair growth. Hold the skin taunt with your other hand for easier hair removal.

10. Repeat the waxing procedure until all the hair is removed.

11. Apply baby oil to a soft cloth and gently rub the skin to remove any small spots of wax that were not removed in the waxing process. Do not rub too hard as this can irritate the skin. The wax will come off quickly.

12. Turn off the water bath or wax heater and allow wax to cool. Depending on how much wax was used, you can save the tub for further applications. Allow the wax to cool completely and store in a dry place. Clean off the roll on or spatula and store as well.

• Take black kajal and brown eye liner as they go very well with office outfits without being loud.

• You can opt for similar brown or earthy shades of eye shadow and apply on your eyelids using a brush.

• If you are particular about blush, use peachy shade and blend it slowly using a brush till it matches with your skin tone.

• Then take light pink or light brown shades of lipstick and apply on your lips without using a lip liner. Use a tissue paper to remove the excess lipstick so that your lips will have a neat finishing.

If you spend these 10 minutes for yourself everyday a you will remain as the elegant beauty for sure…

Those with dark skin, especially with dryness problems, tend to look ashy if skin is not moisturized properly. After your daily shower, make sure you apply a good moisturizer to keep your face and body well-hydrated. This will give you that clear, glowing dusky look.

2. Acne or Pimple Scars:

Dark skin is more prone to have acne or pimple scars. Do not pick at your pimples or any other rashes, as they will show up more on your skin than those with lighter skin.

3. The right foundation:

While selecting your foundation, the best spot to try it out is not on the back of your hand, but instead, on your forehead and just above your jaw line. Be extremely careful while selecting your shade, as anything that’s lighter than your skin tone may end up making you look greyish.

4. Eye shadows:

Dark, metallic colours like green, copper, burgundy, purple and brown will go great with dark skin especially if you’re wearing them at night.

5. Eye makeup:

Smoky eyes will look especially good on those with a darker complexion. Make sure you blend it in well, and if you’re looking to create that extra effect, add on a pop of colour around the inner corners of the eye. Also, if you’re mixing two shades, make sure they are of a similar colour family and complement each other well. Use the lighter of the two shades in the middle to inner part of the eyelids and the darker of the two on the outer edge.

6. Lipsticks:

Use lip colours like beige, coffee, chocolate, soft pink, plums, berry, burgundy, and gold. Stay away from lipsticks with a frosty finish or ones that are too glossy.

7. Blush:

Shades like dark peach, bronze, deep orange, coral, wine, rose and gold and any darker shades of blush will complement your skin best.

8. Powder Foundation:

A liquid foundation will work better on your skin than a cream or powder based foundation, as these may end up making your skin look shiny. Dilute your foundation with a bit of water to make it even on the skin.

9. Sun screen:

Just because you have a darker complexion doesn’t mean your skin won’t get affected by the harmful UV rays. This is a common mistake that many dark-skinned beauties tend to make. Choose your sunscreen depending on your skin type.

10. Using powder:

Darker skin tends to look oily and shiny soon, so it’s advisable to use a face powder that is closest to your skin tone and matches best.

Remember, dark is beautiful, and those with dark and dusky skin tones have the best canvas to create various looks in terms of style and makeup. Take pride in your complexion, choose your colours well and use the above tips to create some stunning looks that are sure to bring in those compliments!

Skin care tips for this diwali

People get so busy with the preparations that they forget to have water. That should not be the case. Drink at least 8 to 10 glasses of water every day. It clears up your skin and gives a healthy glow. Skin gets dry and dull during the festive season. ‘Therefore, don’t forget to moisturise your skin. Eating fried food promotes breakouts and dull skin. So if you can’t resist, limit the intake.

Don’t forget the moisturiser

At this time of the year skin care is important not just for the festival’s sake but also due to change in weather. People face problems like tight, red or itchy skin. To nourish the skin, experts prescribe oil-based moisturisers and bathing oils. ‘Look for an oil-based moisturiser rather using water-based. Oil protects skin and retains more moisture than a cream. Primrose and avocado oils are great for skin. Also, use exfoliates to get the dead skin off periodically, so that the moisturiser can sink in.

A good body scrub and facial exfoliate can help remove dead skin cells. ‘This once a week cleansing routine will make you feel fresh and the skin will be free from dry cells. A few drops of almond and essential bath oils into your everyday bath can help in nourishing your skin.

You don't want your lovingly hand-painted diyas to outshine you at this year's family Diwali party. You'd rather everyone compliment your rosy glowing complexion than your artfully designed rangoli. That's why you're going to follow our 'Get Glowing Skin this Diwali' plan faithfully, without procrastinating.

So here's what to do:

Do it at home

If you're the domestic goddess or have a pampering mother who will happily whip up some home-made face packs, try these natural skincare treatments for a natural, healthy glow.

a) To cleanse your skin daily mix oats and milk or curd (dahi) into a paste. Leave on for 10 minutes. Then wash and pat your skin dry.

b) For dry skin mix almond powder with milk/curd, honey and glycerin. Almond and honey are excellent moisturisers.

c) Take advantage of seasonal fruits. Mix a segment with mashed a couple of strawberries; oranges are mild bleaching agents and will help with skin pigmentation problems, the strawberries help control oiliness.

Naturopath Roopa Shetty, from Nirmal Herbal Spa in Mumbai, says these natural face packs can, and should, be applied everyday. "Leave them on for 10 minutes and then wash. Also, don't miss out on the moisturising benefits of seasonal fruits. So eat your strawberries and drink your awla juice," she says.

Quick tip: Most of us want to know how to deal with open pores. The downside is, the problem can't be reversed, but you can shrink them. Apply a mixture of egg white and honey, again for 10 minutes, to tighten pores. This also helps remove fine hair on the face.

Get professional pampering

Corporate goddesses, with either little time or little inclination for DIY facials, can rescue themselves in the pampering environs of a spa.

Most spas are getting into the festive spirit with therapies featuring 24 carat gold dust and natural ingredients like milk, lemon, chocolate or rose. Experts suggest booking a treatment at least 15 days before D-Day so you can benefit from your glow-enhancing facials.

Dr Shobha Sehgal, head Beauty Vertical, Indian subcontinent and business head day spa at VLCC, says the glow from treatments such as their brightening/softening milk-based Party Peel last up to 15-20 days.

Of course, you have to work to maintain this glow. Dr Sehgal adds, "Home care is necessary after any treatment. Use sunscreen and cleanse and moisturise your skin maintain the effect of the treatment for a longer time."

Make-up essentials

If you have time for neither, fall back on trusty make-up kit. Since we're talking festive, pick eyeshadows, blush and gloss with golden brown tones, they'll give you a happy glow.

For your cheeks: Add a rosy-gold blush with Bourjois Blush Ouvert (N°16 Rose). To highlight your cheekbones, sweep the powder from apples of your cheeks upward.

For your eyes: Highlight your eyes with MAC's Making It Easy (Satin red brown/Pearly beige rose/ Satin dark beige) eye shadow, rim the eyes with Yves Saint Laurent chocolate brown pencil liner.

For your lips: M.A.C's Disco Blen superglass gloss, with its triple dazzle, helicone pearls will do the trick for instant kissable lips.


Beauty tips for glowing skin

Beauty tips for glowing skin

1. Hydrate your skin from within by drinking lots of water

2. Before applying all your makeup, make sure your skin is clean and exfoliated. Use a good, gentle exfoliator and rub onto face in slow, circular motions. The circular motions will ensure good blood circulation and the exfoliating will remove dead skin cells, revealing a bright, new complexion. After you’ve exfoliated both face and body, moisturize from head to toe.

3. Moisturizer is the key to soft, supple skin so for results use a Moisturizing Cream that minimizes water loss thus serving the purpose

4. For instant brightening, go for a Vitamin C facial, or else try an instant hydrating mask.

5. Even in the winter season, do not forget to apply sunscreen daily and when exposed to the sun, sunglasses are a must

6. During the festive season, you tend to get puffy eyes. Splashing cold water in the eyes and the use of eye pads with cucumber, potato and green tea bags will help reduce puffiness.

7. For the lips, use a balm that has moisturizing features

8. Skin needs to be conditioned from the inside as well as out. Choose foods and supplements enriched in vitamins which help vitalize your skin

9. Eat foods that are rich in anti-oxidants like fruits, vegetables that help kick-start your immune system

10. Remove makeup to maintain healthy skin. Use a skin cleanser to gently remove dirt, excess oil and makeup

11. Soak a towel in ice cold water and press it to your face; this constricts blood vessels and there’s less fluid accumulation.

12. Catch-up on some shut-eye. Sleep boosts the immune system and is the time your skin gets to regenerate

13. For your hair, make sure to use a mild shampoo and a good conditioner

14. Avoid hot dryers and in case you use hairsprays, glitter and other hair products make sure to wash off all the chemicals from your hair completely

15. For your skin, plan in advance and undergo services like skin polishing or hair reduction


The Perfect Eyebrow Guidelines

 

LINE A: First, we will determine the actual line of your eyebrow. This is very important to do before you tweeze your eyebrows. First draw a line following the line of your eyebrow, from beginning to end. Is the line round, like a 1/2 circle, or straight?

LINE 1 : To determine where the eyebrow should begin, draw a straight line from the edge of the nose, through the tear duct, straight up. This line shows where your eyebrow should start. If your eyes are close-set, start this line a little further out, to give the illusion of more space between the eyes.

LINE 2 : This line starts from the edge of the nose, to the outer edge of the eye, straight up. Your eyebrow should end on that line. An eyebrow that goes beyond this line tends to make you look sleepy, tired, pulling the eye downwards.

LINE 3 : Start a straight line at the outside edge of the pupil, straight up through the eye. This is where the highest arch of the eyebrow should be.

LINE 4 : Draw this line horizontally through the eyebrow , in a horizontal line, from where the eyebrow starts to where the eyebrow ends along the lower line, meeting where the eyebrow begins and ends. The line should be a straight one. If you find this line slanting at an angle, then you know that either the beginning or the end of the eyebrow is not done correctly.

Sunless Tanning Secrets

 

1. Try before you apply. If you've ever dyed your hair without testing the shade first (and hated the results), then you know how important it is to do a patch test first! To test your self-tanner, apply it to an inconspicuous part of your body (such as your belly) and wait a complete day or two to see how it looks. A single application of self-tanner will last for a few days, applying the wrong shade everywhere could leave you hiding under long sleeves and pants in the summer heat.

2. Plan ahead. Self-tanners work the best on smooth, well-moisturized skin. They often look too dark and artificial on dry skin (especially knees and elbows), so those areas must be softened and smoothed before you start. Prepare your skin to go faux by moisturizing several times a day, especially after bathing or showering. Exfoliate with a gentle scrub all over your body, a few days prior and immediately before applying the self-tanner. Waiting at least 20 minutes after bathing or showing to allow your skin to dry completely. Applying self-tanner on damp or wet skin can result in unevenly-colored areas.

3. Protect your hands. Self-tanners work quickly and if you’re covering your entire body, your palms may get colored in the process. Wear a pair of disposable gloves while applying the self-tanner to your body, applying the tanner to the tops of your hands last. If you don’t have gloves, wash your hands several times and use some soap and a nail brush to scrub away any residue from your nails and cuticles.

4. Apply quickly and evenly. Whether you select a spray, cream or gel self- tanner, you must work quickly and apply the tanner evenly over a complete area. One way to ensure that you don’t miss any spots is to use a brand with a hint of color — that way you will immediately see a bare spot before it’s too late. Use enough tanner to cover a whole area of your body at once (such as your entire arm) using long, smooth, downward strokes for even coverage. Apply self-tanner sparingly on the knees, ankles and elbows, as these areas are typically dry and may turn out splotchy.

5. Wait it out. While you may be tempted to get dressed immediately, wait 30 minutes (or longer) to be on the safe side. Sitting on any light-colored fabrics (including sheets, furniture or towels) during this time can cause color transfer (and stains). Your self-tanner needs time to work its magic, so it has dried, wait at least three hours before bathing, showering or swimming. Afterwards, if you find some areas are darker than you’d like, exfoliate a few times over the next week and the color will fade as your skin cells come off.

6. Make it last. When applied properly, most artificial tans last between three and five days, depending on how fast your skin naturally exfoliates. When you first begin to notice that your color is fading, do another color test and see if you like the shade. If so, go ahead and reapply your self-tanner. Always apply the product in layers, a little at a time, to ensure the most natural looking tone.

5 beauty treatments to avoid just before your wedding

5 beauty treatments to avoid just before your wedding

Here’s a list of beauty treatments that you should avoid just before your wedding.

Botox

While there are many who swear by it (read many Bollywood celebrities), Botox injections may have an adverse effect. Instead of injecting a new lease of life, you might end up with a crooked eyebrow or a twisted jaw line. The level of danger increases if you are a first-timer. The closer you are to the wedding, the better it is to stay away from this beauty treatment.

Lip plumping

Everyone is doing the pouts these days. While some are naturally endowed, others are taking help of artificial plumping devices. Brides, take note that fillers usually take 2-4 weeks to heal completely. The initial effect of fillers make the lips look swollen. Not too photogenic, may we state! If at all you wish to plump it up, do it at least 6-7 weeks ahead of the wedding.

Chemical peeling

Chemical peels are known to remove dead cells, erase fine lines and lighten uneven dark blotches. But the intensity of the beauty treatment causes severe dryness, leading to flaky skin and itchiness. Even a gentle chemical peel may cause irritation and affect the bridal makeup session. Chemical peeling should be done at least 2 weeks before the wedding.

Microdermabrasion

A very popular pre-wedding beauty treatment, microdermabrasion is known for its many benefits. But if not done by an experienced person and not in a stipulated period of time, it can do uncontrolled damage. Make sure that you get the beauty treatment done from a reputed salon at least 6 months ahead of the wedding to prevent any kind of breakouts.

Cosmetic surgeries

With reduced costs and numerous beauty clinics providing these services, brides do not shy away from going under the knife. Liposuction, rhinoplasty, body sculpting, dimple creation, breast augmentation are some of the most popular pre-wedding beauty treatment surgeries. Not only is the risk of some of the cosmetic surgeries high, getting them done just before the wedding is not advisable at all.

చలికాలంలో పాదాలు జాగ్రత్త సుమా

 

చలికాలంలో పాదాలు జాగ్రత్త సుమా

 

 

చలికాలంలో పాదాల విషయంలో జాగ్రత్తగా ఉండాలి. ఎందుకంటే ఈ కాలంలో కాలి మడమలపై పగుళ్లు వచ్చే అవకాశాలు ఉన్నాయి. చలికాలంలో పాదాలు, చేతులు రంగుమారిపోయి  పగుళ్లు వచ్చి చూడ్డానికి బాగా వుండవు. అలాగే నొప్పి కూడా వుంటుంది. అంతే కాదు ఈ సీజన్‌లో చర్మం ఎక్కువగా పొడిబారడం జరుగుతుంది. చర్మం అతి త్వరగా పొడిబారి, పగుళ్ళు ఏర్పడి, చారలు కనబడుతుంటాయి. కాబట్టి... ఈ కాలంలో పాదాలను జాగ్రత్తగా ఉంచుకోవడానికి కొన్ని జాగ్రత్తలు తీసుకోవాలి. 

* పాదాలను మాయిశ్చరైజ్ చేయడం చలికాలంలో తప్పనిసరి అనుసరించాల్సిన మార్గం. చలికాలంలో రోజులో మూడు నాలుగుసార్లు పాదాలను మాయిశ్చరైజ్ చేసుకోవాలి. ఇలా చేయడం వల్ల మీ పాదాలు ఫ్రెష్‌గా, ఫిట్‌గా, హెల్తీగా ఉంటాయి.

* స్లిప్పర్స్  ధరించడం సౌకర్యంగానే  ఉంటుంది. కానీ, ఈ చలికాలంలో వాటిని వేసుకోకపోవడం మంచిది! చలికాలంలో పాదాలకు రక్షణ కల్పించాలంటే  మందంగా ఉన్న షూస్ వేసుకోవాలి.

* పాదాలు అందముగా కనిపించాలంటే పదిహేను రోజులకోసారి పెడిక్యూర్ చేసుకోవాలి. పెడిక్యూర్ కోసం పార్లర్‌కు వెళ్ళనవసరం లేదు. ఇంట్లో ఉండే  వస్తువులతో పెడిక్యూర్ చేసుకోవచ్చు. ముందుగా గోరువెచ్చని నీటిని తీసుకొని దానిలో కొంచెం ఉప్పు, డెట్టాల్, షాంపూ వేయాలి. తరువాత  20 నిమిషాలపాటు కాళ్లను నానబెట్టాలి. బయటకు తీసి బ్రష్‌తో  రుద్దాలి. దీనివల్ల పాదాలపై ఉన్న మృతకణాలు తొలగిపోతాయి. తరువాత ఒక నిమ్మకాయ  తీసుకుని దానిపై గ్లిజరిన్ వేసి పాదాలను బాగా రుద్దాలి. అనంతరం ఆలివ్ ఆయిల్‌తో కాలును  మసాజ్ చేయాలి. ఇలా చేయటం వల్ల పాదాలు పొడిబారవు.

* వేసవికాలం, చలికాలం అని కాకుండా అన్ని సీజన్స్‌లో నీరు ఎక్కువగా తాగితే  మంచిది. చర్మం, పాదాలు ఆరోగ్యంగా, కాంతివంతంగా ఉంటాయి.   

* పాదాల చాలామంది సాక్సులు వాడుతుంటారు. వాటిని ఎప్పటికప్పుడు శుభ్రం చేసి వేసుకోవాలి . లేదంటే దుమ్ము, మురికి చేరి  చెమట పట్టినప్పుడు పాదాలకు ఇన్‌ఫెక్షన్ వచ్చే  ప్రమాదం ఉంటుంది. అలానే నైలాన్‌ సాక్సుల కంటే కాటన్‌వి సౌకర్యంగా ఉంటాయి. రాత్రిపూట తప్పనిసరిగా గోరువెచ్చటి నీళ్లతో కాళ్లు కడుక్కుని, మాయిశ్చరైజ్ ఇలా చేయటం వల్ల పాదాలు అందంగా కనిపిస్తాయి.

Winter Health!

 

Winter Health!

 



Winter weather in any region is brutal to the local people, be it the coldest countries or the hottest continents. Winter weather can leave hair, skin and nails dry and lackluster. How to keep these body parts healthy during winters may not be an open question but everytime one finds leisure moments, one may ask themselves, seeking for advice.

Once Again, kitchen cabinet is the solution.Virgin Coconut oil can be used as a long-lasting body moisturiser, free of chemicals, not so expensive, and as a multi-purpose item. It will leave the body feeling greasy first, but very quickly gets absorbed, there would not be any traces of the oil applied.  It also works well to cope with eczema, dry patches and acne. I prefer WholeFoods' 365 brand of Organic Virgin Coconut oil or even Trader Joes' brand, available in the USA.

For dry hair solutions, we Indians know the uses of coconut oil, however, the virgin version is considered better and efficient, compared to those sold in the stores, specially for hair care, they are over-filtered and may tend to lack the best qualities of the oil, leaving only the oily part of it.

For dry nails treatment, regularly massage virgin coconut oil into your hands and feet, with special attention on the cuticles and nail beds.

Along with using coconut oil for treating these dry body areas, drinking plenty of water and eating enough protein is key to improving hair, nail and skin health. Omega-3 and Anti-oxidant rich foods, Green tea help with hydration and green tea has polyphenols packed with healing abilities. Dairy products like yoghurt contain vitamin A and calcium which keep the nails healthy and strong, foods with vitamin B, Biotin and other minerals can be extremely beneficial in improving hair, nail and skin health during the harsh winter season, anywhere in the world!

ఆరోగ్యమైన, అందమైన జుట్టు కోసం...?

అందమైన జుట్టుకోసం రకరకాల షాంపులు, కండీషనర్లు, మసాజ్ లు, హెయిర్ ప్యాక్ లు ప్రయత్నించిన కూడా జుట్టు రాలిపోతునే వుందా? అయితే మీరు తీసుకునే ఆహారంలో జుట్టు ఆరోగ్యంగా ఎదగడానికి కావాల్సిన పోషకాలు ఉన్నాయో లేవో ఒకసారి చూసుకోండి అంటున్నారు పోషకాహార నిపుణులు.

ప్రోటీన్లు అందుతున్నాయా ?

జుట్టును ఆరోగ్యంగా, బలంగా ఉంచేందుకు ప్రోటీన్లు (మాంసకృతులు) ఎంతో అవసరం. మనం తీసుకునే ఆహారంలో ప్రోటీన్లు తగినంత లేకపోతే జుట్టు పలుచబడిపోతుంది. అలాగే సల్ఫర్ అమినో ఆమ్లాలు అధికంగా ఉండే కోడిగుడ్డు, సోయాబీన్, రాగి, బీట్రూట్, ద్రాక్ష, నువ్వులు, అరటి, ఖర్జూరం వంటివి ప్రతీరోజు ఆహారంలో ఉండేలా చూసుకుంటే జుట్టు చక్కగా ఎదుగుతుంది.

సిల్కీ హెయిర్ కావాలా :

సిల్కీగా మెరిసే జుట్టు కావాలంటే విటమిన్ 'ఎ' తగినంత మీ శరీరానికి అందేలా చూసుకోండి. ఆకుకూరలు,నారింజ, అన్నిరకాల కాయగూరలు ప్రతిరోజూ తీసుకుంటే హెయిర్ సిల్కీగా వుంటుంది.

ఒత్తైన జుట్టుకోసం :

జుట్టు ఒత్తుగా ఉంటేనే ఏ హెయిర్ స్టైల్ అయినా అందంగా కుదిరేది. దానికోసం B కాంప్లెక్స్ విటమిన్లు అయిన ఫోలిక్ యాసిడ్ B-12 లు అధికంగా ఉండే ఆహారాన్ని తీసుకోవాలి. చికెన్, పాలకూర, నారింజ, బెండ, బీట్రూట్, ఉప్పిడి బియ్యం మొలకెత్తిన పెసలు గోధుమలు, వీలున్నన్నిటిని రోజువారీ ఆహారంలో చేర్చుకుంటే చాలు.

అలాగే ఐరన్, జింక్ కూడా జుట్టుకు మేలు చేసేవే. అటుకులు, రాగులు, నువ్వులు, వేరుసెనగ, బాదాం, చేపలు వీటన్నిటిలో ఐరన్ కావాల్సినంత ఉంటుంది. గుమ్మడి విత్తనాలు, గోధుమ గడ్డి మాంసం, పాలల్లో జింక్ వుంటుంది కాబట్టి వీటిని కూడా వీలయినప్పుడల్లా ఆహారంలో చేర్చాలి.

మంచినీరు ముఖ్యమే రోజుకు ఆరు నుంచి ఎనిమిది గ్లాసుల మంచి నీటిని తీసుకోవడం మర్చిపోవద్దు. ఆ చిన్ని అలవాటు మీ జుట్టుకు చక్కగా ఎదిగేలా చేస్తుంది.

10 Beauty Tips To Look Your Best

some women may feel that maintaining everyday beauty is a daunting task.Whether you're dealing with everyday beauty problems or just looking for a quick style change, the following beauty tips and tricks were designed just for you.

1. Stay Clean - Maintaining proper care of your skin and hair will not only keep you looking beautiful but also feeling healthy. Be sure to wash your hair at least every two days, and every day for oily hair. When washing, try to keep showers quick, and take care to use a skin exfoliant before applying your favorite body wash.

2. Keep Your Nails Neat - The fingers and nails are an important but sometimes overlooked area of personal grooming. Keep an even length on your nails, always filing them down to the shortest one. And if you're worried about them looking too short, a little nail polish can help to hide that fact.

3. Be Prepared - Create your own personal "she-mergency" beauty kit (or a few) with three or four key beauty items that are important for touchups or even emergencies. Some items to consider are lip gloss, mascara, blotting papers, or concealer.

4.Beauty Before Bed - Always make sure to remove makeup before bed as it can clog pores and cause breakouts overnight. You may also use an oil-free cleanser before bed and in the morning to prevent shine and oily skin.

5. Use Waterproof Makeup - This is important especially in the summer during pool season and for hot days.

6. Long-lasting Tan - After a tanning session, apply a lotion with shea butter and aloe to prevent peeling and make your tan last longer.

7. Lighten Up - Highlights can bring an instant lift and brighten up your face. You can also use a lighter foundation.

8. Avoid Bedhead - Going to bed with wet hair is a big no-no. It increases the risk of breakage. Be sure to brush your hair before bed and in the morning with a clean hairbrush.

9. Set the Mood - Scent is one of the most powerful senses. By choosing the right fragrance, you can not only change your own mood, but set the mood of those around you as well.

10. Experiment - Just as seasons change, so do the colors associated with them. Be bold and experiment with different colors of your favorite product to stay fresh and to feel re-energized.


SHARING LIP BALM

SHARING LIP BALM?

Is it OK to share a lip balm or a lip stick? We don't intentionally do it, but at times, when we are travelling and forget ours, or the kids' lips are chapped, mommy rubs her balm.

One might end up with more than a moisturized pout! Everytime we swipe the balm over the lips, it picks up saliva, germs and dead skin cells. So one could be layering on bacteria like E. Coli, which could give one a nasty stomachache, or staph, which can cause a skin infection called impetigo.

If the person you are borrowing a lip balm or a lip stick from is prone to cold sores (about 60% of the population does) one could end up with them too.

Sharing with your spouse or kids poses no greater risk than kissing them goodnight, but if someone in the same family has been sick, play it safe and before using a balm, in any case, wipe the balm with a dry tissue followed by a swap dipped in alcohol to kill the bacteria.

How to Look Gorgeous Without Makeup

How to Look Gorgeous Without Makeup

Drink sufficient water :
Water infuses the much needed elasticity into your skin, and makes it appear well-hydrated. If you drink 7 to 8 glasses of water every day, you will soon find a unique radiant glow lingering on your skin.

Proper skin cleansing regimen :
If you want to look gorgeous naturally, you will have to take care of your skin. You have to make sure that your skin is clean and free from blemishes. Follow a cleansing regimen twice a day. Make 'CTM' (cleansing, toning, and moisturising) as your skin care mantra. All you need is, an appropriate skin cleanser, moisturiser, and toner, all of which would keep your skin cleansed and healthy throughout the day. Apart from this, exfoliate your skin thrice a week to remove dead skin cells off.

Take care of your hair :
Lustrous locks add to your beauty. Ensure that your hair does not become greasy. Use the right shampoo and conditioner for your hair. Try hair spa and oil turban therapy treatments to enhance the sheen and smoothness of your hair. Also, use natural products to protect your scalp against problems like hair fall, breakage, spilt-ends, and scalp infections, etc.



Stop touching your face :
Keep your hands away from your face, especially when you are outdoors. Do not prick those pimples, unless you want them to leave behind an ugly mark on your face. Do not rub your eyes constantly because that pulls and effects the sensitive skin around your eyes, leading to wrinkles. Remember, your facial skin is very delicate, so keep those dirty hands away from it!

Pay attention to smaller details :
Beautiful eyes play a significant part in overall appeal. Eyebrows provide a framing effect to the face. Shape your eyebrows according to your face cut. You can wax your forehead for a cleaner look. Remove facial hair and excess body hair from visible areas.  

Smile please!
Always take care of your lips and teeth. Never lick your lips and use a good lip balm to keep them soft and supple.

Smile lights up your face and spreads a feel good factor all around.

MAPPING ACNE

MAPPING ACNE

 

Acne breakouts are normal, however, they are not a sight anyone wants to see when they look in the mirror. Understanding the cause of your breakouts can help give you insight on how to better manage your skin. The location of breakouts on the face usually depends largely on the age and hormonal influence of the patient. Adolescents---teenagers in particular-and adult women are the most prone to acne flare-ups. These breakouts occur primarily in two places : the T-Zone and the V-Zone. 


Adolescents breakouts often occur in the T-Zone. this area is found by making a "T" across your forehead and down the nose to the chin. Skin in that area will be oily, shiny and clogged due to the surge of hormones that stimulate the oil glands slightly before and during puberty. These breakouts will display more blackheads and whiteheads. the scalp also produces excess oil during puberty, so natural oils from the hair can cause breakouts as well.

As a person ages, the location of the acne migrates downward, especially for women. Adult women tend to have more of the breakouts on the lower half of the face, which is referred to as the V-Zone. This area covers the lower cheeks, jawline, chin and neck. The lower part of the face has more hormonal receptivity, which is the primary cause for this shift in location. For instance, women will often get a cyst on their menstrual cycle. Post-adolescent women tend to have an inflammed type of acne consisting of pink and white bumps rather than the oily, shiny face you would see in a teenager. the skin is often more normal, or it may even be dry.

MAPPING ACNE-2

MAPPING ACNE-2

 

In terms of medical conditions, hormonal endocrine problems such as cystic ovaries or overactive adrenal glands can cause hormonal types of acne. In these situations, hormonal acne would occur all the time as opposed to just prior to the menstrual cycle. if a woman is showing a lot of acne and isn't responding to treatments, a hormonal abnormality is a possible cause. A blood test is necessary in order to diagnose any hormonal imbalance. 


An overactive thyroid can also be a medical condition that causes increased acne everywhere, not in hormonal areas. A thyroid condition will leave the skin shiny and clogged, very similar to adolescent acne. If you're having a medical condition that is leading to acne flare-ups, you are more likely to find acne on the body as well. 

Pay attention to hair and beauty products that you use, such as conditioners and heavy moisturizers, as these can also cause breakouts. Prescribed medications for acne typically come in two types --- Topical and Oral. Topical medications are usually prescription retinoids and topical antimicrobials. Oral medications are antibiotics and hormones. Consult your dermatologist to determine the medication if you think you may need treatment.

There is no clear reason why they come, it could be because of accumulation of dirt, genetic or any mild infection but the aftermath is quite visible. There are various ways to remove them -  by burning them with small needles or through laser treatment or by using special creams. A cheaper and easier alternative is removing it at home with the help of a garlic clove. The acidic nature of this humble garlic will help remove the wart, only that you will have to bear the smell for a couple of days. All you need is a big garlic clove and some tape.

 

1)    Peel the garlic 

2)    Cut a sliver of garlic the same shape and size of your wart 

3)    Place the  garlic piece on the wart

 4)   Put a duct tape or masking tape to hold the garlic on the garlic and set it so that it doesn’t fall off

5)    Also see to that it doesn’t get wet.

6)    Keep the garlic on for 15 minutes a day and you will notice that in a couple of days that the wart will become smaller and then eventually drop off.

The wart will disappear between 4-8 days and a small scab like mark on the skin will be left over after the wart disappears.

Note: 

This is not permanent solution and most of these warts might grow back after being removed. You need to check with your dermatologist for a permanent solution.

Lipstick cases come in leather, who doesn't want to carry one with a mirror inside. 

For someone who has interest in applying make up, an expensive or good-brand of make-up brushes, a small/ wide set of blush/ eye shadows is a good idea. 

 
A nice hair dryer, hair curler/ straightener are specific for someone who uses such products or has interest in using them would be a smart option. 

For someone who is simple, and doesn't use the above make-up range, a simple Lip gloss set or a wide collection of colorful Bindis, hair bands is appreciated.

End split-ends

End split-ends

 

The number-one complaint that most women have nowadays is frizzy split ends in the hair. Young or old women with long or short hair go through this hairy issue. With new trends in hair technology including coloring, perming, straightening, styling using heat rods etc.etc., have also resulted in extensive hair damage where the internal hair structure is exposed causing splits. The only option left is to cut the splits arising out of it. But this can’t be done every time so the other option would be to prevent it from recurring.

Conditioning: Something we already know but this time use a wide tooth comb and run it through your hair till it is detangled. A leave-in conditioner will also add extra protection to your hair as you go about your day.

When you towel dry your hair do it gently to prevent breakage.

Avoid using metal and harsh rubber bands to tie your hair .Also don’t pull it to hard either.

Avoid using hot blow driers as they tend to dry your hair and cause split ends. There are also new ones where you can change from hot to cold for drying your hair. 

Avoid excessive perming and straightening as these treatments use equipment where heat is generated and cause extensive damage to the hair follicle.

Gets a good hair spa done using branded products once a month as the leave-on effect of these hair creams help in protecting the hair from split ends.

And last but not the least Grandma’s hot oil massage done once a week is the best thing you could do for your hair. Don’t forget the 15 minute relaxing massage! 

Take folic acid and biotin nutrients which have been proven to improve hair health, length and thickness. A good diet rich in folic acid including green leafy veggies, oranges, soybeans and wheat, and brown rice, lentils, peas, sunflower seeds, walnuts and soybeans rich in biotin are to be incorporated in your diet for a healthy  and lustrous hair!

Petroleum Jelly Benefits

Petroleum Jelly Benefits

 

Petroleum Jelly was discovered in 1859 in Titusville, Pennsylvania, United States, on some of the country's first oil rigs. Later Robert Chesebrough, a young chemist took the unrefined black "rod wax", as the drillers called it, back to his laboratory to refine it and explore potential uses. Chesebrough discovered that by distilling the lighter, thinner oil products from the rod wax, he could create a light-colored gel. Chesebrough patented the process of making petroleum jelly by U.S. Patent 127,568 in 1872 and opened his first factory in 1870 in Brooklyn using the name Vaseline.

Jelly also preserves the scent of your perfume. Apply a light coat of Jelly on your neck or pulse points and dab the perfume there .The fragrance will last longer.

When you get your hair colored it leaves a dark residue on the hairline- you could apply a coat of jelly on the hairline to prevent the colour from dyeing your skin.

 


Low on Lashes

Low on Lashes

Some of us have really thick eyelashes, and some have thin lashes and sometimes gaps between the follicles. Eyelash growth has four stages: growing, resting, shedding and regrowing, but the process tends to slow down with age, and some follicles can stop growing altogether. Other than age, here are some major factors that can limit eyelash growth:


Rubbing eyelashes too hard or scrubbing hard when removing eye makeup

Heredity

Medical conditions

Some beauty products, medications and treatments

Talking to a good dermatologist if you've noticed that your eyelashes are thinning over time so the Doctor can help you find the root of the problem and a remedy to stop the problem. I personally experienced this problem while i was working as a News presenter for a TVChannel where one had to wear heavy eye makeup, i had water running from my eyes after they applied the makeup and also due to the high intensity lighting. My Ophthalmologist suggested i stop wearing even kajal, let alone the Mascara or Eyeliner. She said my eyes didn't allow any foreign particles and hence the reaction. So, sometimes, makeup affects our eyes even if we use it the first time.


Whats your Tone

What's your Tone?

Pairing the right color palettes with your skin tone can enhance your features and help you look your absolute best. However, it is a very confusing task when we go to the store to pick suitable eye shadows, lipsticks, foundations, hair highlights or colors and cheek blushes.

To make your job easier, Here are the best colors to match with your skin tone:

Cool Skin Tone--Red, pink or bluish undertones: Rich colors including black, navy, red, hot pink, emerald green, royal blue or dark purple are the best shades for this skin tone.

Warm Skin Tone--Yellow, gold or orange undertones: You will look great in sage green, soft peach, gold, muted browns and bronze.

Neutral Skin Tone--Mixture of cool and warm tones: All colors work, so mix and match to find your best look.

 


Hot, Cold and Face

Hot, Cold and Face

 

 

Hot water may feel like its cleansing your skin more thoroughly, but stick to lukewarm water when washing your face.
Water that is too hot can alter the skin's natural oils and leave your complexion overly dry. Lukewarm water is equally effective, much more gentle on the skin.

After cleansing, use cool water as a final rinse and pat gently with a clean towel. Follow up with toner, moisturizer or night cream shortly after drying your face to lock in moisture.

Always apply a moisturizer and soap, cleansing cream/milk in upward strokes on the skin. Even when patting dry with a towel, pat in upward direction to delay wrinkles, these upward strokes help keep the skin tight.  

 


 

 

 


A Beauty App

A Beauty App

 

 

Each day women are exposed to about 168 chemicals in beauty products, according to the Environmental Working Group (EWG), a Washington-based health research and advocacy group that looks into toxic chemicals. Think Dirty, a free iPhone app, gives a product a score after scanning the barcode for ingredients and chemicals. With so many chemical ingredients used in beauty products this new apps is certainly a boon for the beauty and health conscious people .It scans barcodes and reviews the items for safety.

The score indicates whether a product has any harmful ingredients and allergens. The app also lists each ingredient and its potential effect on health using sources such as The National Library of Medicine's Hazardous Substances Data Bank, the EWG and the David Suzuki Foundation, a Canadian environmental group. Warnings from regulatory agencies in other countries show up as well. Since many people are becoming aware of toxins in cosmetics, companies are responding by phasing out harmful ingredients. "We all use so many products, and even when we look at the back of the label, we don't understand what's in them because we're not chemists," said Lily Tse, the founder of Think Dirty, which is based in Toronto.


Guarding Lips

Guarding Lips

 

 

Guard Lips against aging and the sun's affects:

Just like the rest of our skin, the lips need protection from sunburn and premature aging. Infact, they can be prone to precancerous changes and skin cancers. One advice for taking care of them is also the same-- avoiding the sun when we can, in addition to using sunblock every day, whether it rains or shines. Use a lip balm that includes Zinc and has SPF more than 30, not higher than 50. 

To minimize lines and wrinkles around the lips and mouth, make sure to hydrate year-round with a moisturizer such a Baby oil. This is especially important right after a shower to effectively lock in moisture. While you brush your teeth, once done, exfoliate the lips gently with the wet tooth brush, to remove dead skin. Avoiding smoking and pursing of the lips, as both can cause wrinkles around the mouth. In addition, don't lick your lips when they are dry, they can be chapped easily. 

If the lips are dry, itchy or red, look for balms with moisturizing ingredients like glycerin, beeswax, natural oils or petroleum. Avoid lip balms that contain retinol, glycolic or salicylic acid, retinol palmitate, parabens and lanolin, as these chemicals may irritate the skin and cause allergic reactions. 

Remember to  treat your lips as much as your treat your skin and they will feel better and help you not gain wrinkles too.

Eye makeup with Contact Lens

Eye makeup with Contact Lens

 

For those who you wear contact lens and wear makeup we present a few tips to prevent irritations and infections to the eye and yet look great with eye makeup.

Eye lenses before or after makeup?

It would be better to put the lenses on first if your eyes tend to water a bit. If you put them on after makeup and your eyes water it can totally ruin your makeup and you would have to start all over again.

The same would be to take them off before you take off the makeup. And do this gently.

Use water-based makeup removers and remove the make up with sterilized cotton. Avoid fragrance and oil based ones as they can cause irritation.

Mascara

For any kind of make-up its best to use branded products. Mascaras which are thick an blotchy are to be avoided. The mascaras that tend to lengthen your eyelashes contain fibers’ which may cause irritation to the eye so you need to try them first and use.

Avoid the eye water lines

Applying the eye pencil, kohl or the liquid eyeliners on the water line areas should be avoided. The product could get on to your lenses whether you put the lenses before or after makeup.

Cream based makeup

Try not use too much of powder based makeup as this could get onto your eyes. Now if you have an oily skin it could be a bit difficult to use powder based makeup , try combining the powder with a cream agent and test the makeup. Use face compacts for powdering your face as a better option for dusting the face with powders.

Here’s to a tears free eye makeup!


Tearing your hair over hair fall

Tearing your hair over hair fall

Hair fall and thinning of hair is a common problem nowadays and enough has been said and written about it. As we know there are many reasons as to why we have hair fall which could be: By a specific event—like childbirth, high fevers, period of intense stress or hormonal imbalance. Now after child birth and while feeding the child, it starts with a loss of 50 to 100 strands per day and could lead to over all shedding of hair. Once the trauma passes, your hair will grow back within a few months. And if it is because of thyroid imbalance, endocrinal disorders (like polycystic ovarian syndrome), dietary deficiency, or a specific medication, your hair will most likely grow back once the medical condition is addressed. But the growth process will be slow depending on your age.

 

Now comes the tough part if it is because of Androgenetic alopecia , which off late is a common cause of female hair loss, a genetic condition in which there is extensive hair fall and the new hair shafts grow thinner. It leads to a wider parting and gradual reduction in overall volume of the hair, and the crown part of the head becomes scanty and you see a shine in the skin. Sad to say the hair shafts don’t grow when you spot this visible change and it becomes vital to preserve the rest of your hair. Hair loss is another add-on of menopause especially when it's compounded by hormonal shifts.

The first step in minimizing the hair fall is working with your doctor or trichologist to identify why your hair is thinning. If Androgenetic alopecia is the culprit, you won't achieve full re-growth, but you could check with your doctor and try the new products available in the market which promote hair growth. And the old grandma’s wisdom of the overnight hot-oil-massage should be followed regularly.

Choose a concealer that matches your skin tone and pick a liquid formula for more coverage and lightly pat the concealer from the inner corner of your eye to just past the outer corner and blend it into your skin.

Skin lightening creams that contain hydroquinone or kojic acid or Vitamin A may also diminish the darkness under the eyes.

Another but slightly expensive optionis the  IPL or Intense Pulse Light treatment. The technology utilises a broad spectrum lightsource, with a general spectral range of 515 to 1200 nm. Because of the broad spectrum of the IPL light source they are unique, as opposed to lasers, in the ability to filter the light spectrum to target various chromophores in the skin. This can help by destroying those pigment cells and smoothing the skin. To see improvement you need to take at least 4 to 5 sittings. But if the dark circles are caused by extremely thin skin then it may not be so successful.


Avoid frizzy Hair - Tips

Avoid frizzy Hair - Tips

 



Try these tips to keep your hair frizz free…

Avoid Over shampooing

Sodium lauryl sulfate, the key ingredient in most traditional shampoos, is an effective cleanser, but can leave hair dry and frizzy. To keep yours hydrated, try a 100 percent sulfate-free shampoo, and shampoo less often. For fine hair, cleanse every other day to keep the hair frizz free.

Conditioning regularly

Use a  good conditioner after shampooing your hair. You have special leave in  Conditioners for frizz prone hair which  will add moisture and shine to hair. Be sure to leave it on for at least five minutes in the shower for it to work effectively.

Avoid rigorous towel drying

Wiping wet hair with a towel will damage the  hair's cuticle, so gently press and squeeze out the water with a cloth preferably a cotton towel which absorb water.

Hair care

Style your hair with a brush made of soft and nylon bristles—This helps in distributing the natural oils and smoothing the cuticle. If your hair is curly, avoid the brush and use a wide toothed comb or simply run your fingers through your hair.

Avoid pulling your hair

Avoid running you fingers through your hair unnecessarily. As a habit when we are in deep thought we tend to pull or twist hair, the more you mess with it, the more frizz you create so let your tresses be.

Matte finish your Makeup
 
 

This spring the matte look is the new order of the day and it’s all about getting a velvety-smooth finish that doesn't look too made up. Now this is one kind of makeup that can suit both oily and dry skin types. A good daily skin routine is essential for all skin types before applying your makeup.

Whether you have oily or dry skin, choosing a lightweight foundation with a good coverage. Not too much or else you end up with a pancake and too little may not cover your flaws. Color-match your foundation by applying the cream along your jaw line and blend down onto the neck, the right shade should blend into your skin tone

How to apply the Matt look

Apply the foundation lightly and, starting at the center of your forehead, blend the foundation outward, and add more coverage where it is needed. The shine-free look of matte skin makes it ideal for daytime or nighttime. 
If you have oily skin, use a fluffy powder brush to lightly dust an oil-controlling pressed powder on shine-prone spots. If your skin is on the dry side, apply powder only to your T-zone; this will keep your lightweight matte finish from appearing cake-y.
The beautiful matte base is right on trend and its classic, elegant and sophisticated!

Try the Hydra facial

Try the Hydra  facial

 

One of the latest beauty treatments for younger looking and healthy skin and especially for ladies who are on the run , this facial lasts only 20 minutes depending on the condition of your skin.

The entire HydraFacial is performed using a vacuum based skin abrasion tip which is loaded with various serums, specially formulated to target and combat different skin complaints. The probe massage may not be soothing as a hand massage by  a facialist's hands, but the results are remarkable. The probe removes dead skin cells while bathing the healthy underlying skin with deep cleansing, exfoliating and antioxidant serums meaning that they are worked deep into the skin - exactly where they can take effect. The serums are clinically formulated to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, congested pores, hyper-pigmentation and acne-prone skin and are prescribed according to your needs.

Post treatment it's recommended that you don't touch your skin with any product until the next day - to allow your skin time to absorb what’s already been pumped into it with the vacuum tip.

The 50 minute version of the HydraFacial is something that celebrities like  Kate Winslet, Beyonce and Eva Mendes swear about which they have before their red carpet events.

Eyes are the most attractive and appealing part of a woman's body. So it is essential to make them look pretty and bright all the time.

Use a smooth moisturizer around the eyes and gently massage them for a couple of minutes everyday before you hit the bed. 

2. Kajal Is the Magic :

Most Indian women love using Kajal on their eyes. But here is a new tip !!! Never stop with just black. Mix and match your Kajal with two colors to make your eyes more vibrant. 

3. Do Not Over Pluck :

It is necessary to understand that hair growth reduces with age. This applies to eye brows as well. So you grow older, stop over plucking your eyebrows. Instead use tweezers to just set your eye brow curves right. 

4. Use a Different Vegetable :

Usage of cucumber on the eyes is old. Start using raw potato slices on the eyes to soothe your vision and also to remove the tan around the eye surface. 

5. Contrast Eye Shadows :

Eye shadows come in every color possible. Stop wearing the ones that match your clothes. Instead use a contrast color which will help you portray your eyes on the brighter side !!!

 




Conceal the Grays’ naturally

Conceal the Grays’ naturally

 


Concealing the grays is something we can’t avoid doing and at the same time it is important to see that it complements your skin tone and doesn't look too obvious that you have colored it. For those who have naturally black hair it’s important that you colour hair and ensure that you don’t end up looking older than what you actually are .

Presenting a few tips to help you dye naturally.

-> See to that it complements your natural skin tone.

-> Don’t  stray from rich tones and stick to your natural shade.

-> If a new colour is added the natural hair will oxidize and turn the strands into an orange shade.

-> When you have a dark hairline it tends to get dark faster. Use a colour that is two shades lighter for the hairline.

-> Avoid hair colour that too dark and inky   which is called the "shoe polish" effect. It can look opaque, which can showcase grays and re-growth. It will also sap life and color from your face.

-> Ask for a single-process highlights that bring your natural hair color one shade lighter which will add dimension & disguise the grays.

-> For those using at-home hair-color kits, buy a box that's one shade lighter than the color you desire.

-> Don’t leave the color on your hair for too long as it can get really dark and will make it look awkward.

Try the medium-to-dark chestnut range of colours for your dark hair as these colours will keep it from looking obviously dyed, and will make you look much more natural and youthful.

Prevent Eyelash loss

Prevent Eyelash loss

 



Too much of eye makeup, excessive rubbing of the eyes, hormonal issues are some of the causes for loss of your precious eyelashes. These small strands of eye hair are extremely delicate and have to be treated gently. If you notice your lashes thinning right after you try a new produce, stop using it immediately as you are likely allergic to it.


What not to do


Be as gentle as possible when removing your makeup at night to avoid rubbing, pulling and tugging on your lashes. Avoid wearing waterproof mascara and false eyelashes as both are very difficult to remove and require much pulling on your natural lashes during removal. When you do wear mascara, apply it sparingly. Eyelash curlers are, in fact, as scary as they look and should be avoided. They pull on your eyelashes and can inadvertently pluck them out. If you curl your lashes, make sure to use an eyelash curler that has rubber tabs on the inside to protect your lashes.

For re-growth

Apply petroleum jelly to your eyes at night to keep them looking long, healthy and shiny.
Apply castor oil on the tips for thick lashes.

Eat healthy and nutritious food – apart from your hair on the head even your eye lashes will growth thick and strong. To save your lashes, always use hypoallergenic makeup.


Define uneven lines for the perfect lip

Define uneven lines for the perfect lip

 


 

When you have an uneven lip line you would want that perfect smile or pout. Follow these simple steps to get an even lip line and a pout if possible.


What you need:

You will need a good concealer which blends into your natural skin tone near the lips especially and a soft lip liner. The idea is not to look too obvious that you have used a concealor and lip liner .  A good quality lip brush is also an essential tool for your makeup kit.

To make uneven lips appear more even:

  1. Use your lip liner to balance your top lip by outlining just outside the natural edge.
  2. Ensure that your line is even and not too heavy, then outline the lower lip, focusing on lifting outer edges / extending corners upward.
  3. Fill in most of your lips with lip pencil, leaving a space in the center of the top + bottom lip to enhance your pout.
  4. Apply your lipstick over your whole lip area, right to your new lip line, and this will make your pouted lips look not as wide or down-turned.

  A few key lip tips :

  • Use a natural lip liner to subtly recreate a natural lip line,
  • Only  go just slightly outside the line, or it will look too clownish
  • When making changes to your natural lip line / shape, always avoid shades too bright, too glossy, too dark or too shiny.

Tips to avoid skin darkening

Tips to avoid skin darkening

 



When we saw actress Kajol turn up for an event a shade fairer than what she actually is , the media went on  a hype saying that she got a melanin treatment done for her skin to look fairer than what she is. Kajol has vehemently denied that she had any treatment done and attributed her fair looks to staying at home for a long period as she is not busy acting in movies anymore, which is true.

Why we become dark are based on intrinsic and extrinsic factors. The intrinsic cause stems from imbalances in the hormone levels and is very difficult to treat and the external factors are  excessive sun exposure, wounds, skin treatments and procedures that might not suit one's skin and anything that stimulates the increased production of melanin (substance that gives skin and hair its colour).Now as women who are forever in the search for that magic potion or treatment for fair skin , check out these simple tips which you can follow daily to get a glowing & fair skin even when going out.

-Avoid exposure to direct sunlight between 9am-4pm.
- Apply SPF (sun protection factor) at regular intervals of 3 to 4 hours.
-Water, water, water… drinking water and staying hydrated is an essential tip to prevent hyper pigmentation.
-Avoid harsh colour cosmetics like 'blush-ons' and fragrances like lavender, as these absorb UV rays and can cause hyper-pigmentation and skin darkening.
- Cut down or rather stop smoking, as this further stimulates the melanin causing darkness .
- Try natural ingredients like potato, tomato, curd, lemon which are easily available at home and help in reducing pigmentation and make you fairer.

Keep yourself covered while you go out in the sun if you have to (sunglasses, scarf, cotton coat to cover your hands etc) and
stay Sun safe to avoid getting dark!

 


Triphala herbal treatment for Acne

Triphala herbal treatment for Acne

 



Acne a bane in a teenagers life whether it’s a boy or girl , can leave the face scarred if proper care is not taken. This skin condition is characterized by red pimples on the skin, especially on the face, due to inflamed or infected sebaceous glands and prevalent chiefly among adolescents. This is also because of hormonal fluctuations after the onset of puberty.

The first thing when the acne starts is to not get overly worried about it and go for any treatments unless it turns chronic. Mild acne can be easily taken care at home itself. A simple and natural treatment using herbs can be used to keep acne at bay.

First go through a herbal steam to cleanse your face. Inhaling the ingredients can also clear your nasal passage in the process. After the steam go through very mild and gentle exfoliation. So here goes!

 



For the Herbal Steam: 1 bowl of boiling hot water,
1 tsp citrus peel powder,
1 tsp tulsi powder,
1 tsp fennel seed powder,
1 tsp peppermint leaves.

Mix these into the boiling hot water.
Dip a turkey cloth in this water, squeeze excess water and place the washcloth over your face for 10 minutes dipping as when the towel turns cold.

An easier way would be to steam your face with a towel covering your head.

 



For the gentle exfoliation: Make a powder mixture with Neem 1/2 tsp, Chandan (sandalwood) 1/2 tsp, Triphala 1/2 tsp, Multani mitti 1/2 tsp. You could use milk or rosewater but the key here is not to make it a water paste but rub the powders gently just dabbing a bit of moisture so that it covers the face.

After gently rubbing this over the face let it stay on your face for 5 minutes and wash off with cool water. When done on a weekly basis it can help reduce the acne inflammation.


Note - you should not rub or massage your skin roughly, just a gentle clean up to close the pores after the steam is needed.


Grape benefits for the face

Grape benefits for the face

 


The sweet and succulent grapes are not only good to taste but the fruit’s seeds also help to strengthen blood vessels and enhance skin elasticity. Which means not only can you eat them you can apply the pulp to your face for added benefits externally. Grape seed oil is rich in moisturising content and also provides Vitamin C and E to the skin.

Try this interesting face mask with grapes. There is no need for any elaborate procedure all you have to do is just mash the grapes and apply it like a mask and leave it on for 10 to 15 minutes before washing it off.

For Oily Skin: For  oily skin  you should mash black grapes with some multani mitti (Fuller's earth). To make it in paste form, mix it well with drops of rose water in it. Let it stay for 15 minutes on your face and then rinse it off.

For Dry skin: If you have dry skin you can take mashed black grapes, avocado pulp (optional )and mix the paste with two teaspoons of honey and rose water. Leave it on for 15 minutes before rinsing it off.

For this summer try this succulent and fresh smelling grape mask – and remember to use the dark grapes, as they  have more benefit.


Orange Peel for Oral beauty

Orange Peel for  Oral beauty

 



The humble Orange Peel which is usually thrown away after the fruit is eaten can actually be used for many beauty purposes. The only thing we know is to dry the peel and use the powder in face packs and hair packs. There is another  very interesting use of the orange peel and that it can be used to to reduce  yellow tone on your teeth.

How is it done ? Very simple rub some fresh orange peel onto your teeth regularly. The vitamin C and calcium contained in the peel will tackle the microorganisms effectively and cleanse your teeth.

The citrus in the peel will also brighten your teeth just like how the lemon works. All you have to do is clean your teeth with orange peel before you sleep every night and if you can also use the use orange peel powder, in case fresh orange peel is not available.

But remember to rinse your teeth after applying the peel on your teeth and you also get an added benefit of fresh orangy breath!

Laser Hair removal treatments – A Caution

Laser Hair removal treatments – A Caution

 



Laser Hair removal treatments have become a popular and widely accepted form of permanent hair removal techniques in the world over. What is described as a harmless, virtually trouble-free technique of removing undesired hair on your body, this permanent Hair removal treatment involves spotlighting a laser beam at the root of the hair follicle, restricting the growth of hair. This method is different to the Intense Pulsed Light system (IPL) which consumes a smaller amount of influential, diffused light waves.
 
Now all this may seem harmless and simple but the same treatment if is done by inexperienced and unqualified cosmetologists can lead to severe damage to the skin. Like in a recent case in the city of Hyderabad an NRI lady had come to get the treatment done for her facial hair removal in a so-called reputed skin clinic, ended up with burnt scars on her face.Apparently the clinic was just 3 days old and the doctors were new.
 
What happens in this treatment is that lasers make use of laser beam with low energy. These laser beams pass through the skin of patients and the energy flows to the hair shaft and gets absorbed by follicles of hair, thereby hindering the hair follicle in the profound layer of the skin. This laser hair removal treatment does not affect the hair follicles. In several cases, slight pinching pain can be experienced and mild anesthesia is required. It could also lead to reddish and soreness of the skin. If the beams are used in higher energy it can burn the skin and damage the upper layer of the skin.  When the skin gets burnt it takes a while to heal and may also require other cosmetic treatments to help cover the scars.
 
Just because a pamphlet is distributed advertising about these laser hair removal treatments with skin clinic corporate brand name one should not fall for it. Checking the credentials of the clinic and the cosmetologists’ qualifications is a must or else it could lead to these “cosmotological” disasters. After all it’s your skin at stake!

4. Take a makeup brush and some contouring powder or bronzer and apply in the shape of a "3": starting at the temples, down the hollows of the cheekbones, and down the jaw line. Also dust some powder down the sides and tip of the nose.

What not to do when blow-drying your hair

What not to do when blow-drying your hair

 



We girls have learnt the art of blow drying hair at home. We have the right tools i.e. paddle brush, round brush, a good quality blow dryer ( hot & cold options ) and clips for parting your hair etc. Now that you know what it takes to achieve the perfect salon-type of blowing your hair into style , here are some tips  to follow to avoid any hair disasters  when you  blow-dry at home:-

· Never hold the brush in one direction and the dryer in the other. The key to sleek, smooth hair is symmetry.

. Don't try to dry hair that's too wet. Your hair will take much longer to dry and be unnecessarily exposed to more heat for no reason.

· Don't over-dry your hair. It's a common mistake that can damage your strands. Dry hair only until it feels dry to the touch -- blast it with cold air to help you determine if it's totally dry or not.

· Do not move your wrist and shake your dryer around. This serves absolutely no purpose. Keep your dryer as steady as possible.

· Direct the airflow down your hair and keep your hair pulled a little tightly not too hard.

· When you finish drying apply  hair spray or rub a pea-sized drop of hair shine serum in your palms and distribute evenly from mid-shaft to ends ,staying clear of roots.

Orga nice your dressing Table

Orga ’ nice’ your dressing Table

 



Setting your Dressing Table in order can be one of the most tiresome tasks to do on a regular basis for the girls who are on the go. We have various methods to de-clutter the table by dumping the makeup items into different baskets , holders and trays. Which is a good thing but after a point of time it becomes dusty, you have hair, powder all over. It’s time to de-clutter! Now that we all have an idea of keeping our stuff in a particular fashion we need to sort of organize things in a nice fashion. Presenting a few tips to organize your dressing table.

1.First… whatever the design shape , drawers, pullouts etc .,that you have in your pretty dressing table ,put nice white sheets - something like plain wrapping sheets on the table and in the draws . This way you can remove and replace as and when you want.

2. You know this but then here it goes once again- Separate holders and trays for specific items like hair brushes, eye makeup, lipsticks, bottles, perfumes, manicure items etc. This way you will put things back in their place.

3. Keep a set of makeup items in a travel pouch so that when you travel you don’t need to pull out all the stuff from the dressing table except for one or two.

4. For those make up addicts who have dozens of lipsticks, polishes and other paraphernalia, you need to have larger trays and holders. Each sort of makeup has to be marked on the trays if possible and segregated according to use and frequency of use.

5. Keep the items that you don’t use on a daily basis at the bottom of the table.

6. For the blow-dryers and other hair styling tools which have cords, you could put them on a holder ( some of them come with holders for fixing them in the hall) next to the pug point so that you can use and put them back.

7. Invest in a  good lamp if you have space or ensure that there is light above the dressing table for ample light.

And last but not the least a handy feather duster to dust the table as when you want!

Lips-sticks that lasts longer

Lips-sticks that lasts longer


A perfect and long lasting lipstick is what everyone wants and to make the lipstick last longer follow these simple steps:


1. Before you start your makeup apply a good lip balm and let your lips soak up the moisturizing balm.


2. Take a good lip liner a shade closer to the lipstick you are applying and outline and fill your lips. This forms a base.


3. Take the lipstick and apply one coat. Take a tissue paper and blot it. Apply another coat and blot it again.


As you blot, you form a new coat and this helps the lip color last longer. Filling the lips with a first coat of lip liner forms a base and as you add coats of lip color and blot it the lipstick lasts longer through the day…

Oil your Hair only on Sundays

Oil your Hair only on Sundays

 

 

Now you might be wondering why we said Oil your hair only on Sundays. The monsoons have arrived and the hair tends to get clumpy and moist. You can’t wash your hair too often as it would leave it frizzy and dried out and at the same time you can’t ignore the goodness of warm oil hair massage.

Oiling your hair once a week and letting the oil stay overnight or for at least a day is highly recommended by hair experts. Try this massage and pack at home to keep your hair in shape.


Usually steaming is done after a massage, but this time put a hot towel or steam your hair first before you massage .This opens the pores in your scalp.


Now take some warm and not hot oil (any of your favourite coconut, almond, herbal , olive etc.)and massage with your finger tips for about 15-20 minutes. There is no need to use excess oil, just enough to massage your scalp.

 


After you have let the oil stay overnight or at least an hour, apply ripe and really soft papaya mixed with curd on your hair. It is enough to apply on the scalp and apply a mild coat on the rest of the strands. The papain enzyme in papaya helps in keeping the hair soft and shiny and the curd makes up for a great conditioner.

Wash off the pack after an hour and use a very mild shampoo to wash it off. So keep your hair healthy and strong this season.
 


Eyebrows for the Ovals and Round faces

Eyebrows for the Ovals & Round faces

The traditional Indian classic face shapes are the oval and round face shapes. And to sculpt the perfect eyebrow shapes for these shapes is simple and easy.

For the Oval Face Shape
The Oval shaped faces don’t require any particular grooming and any shape suits well on the person with oval face cut. If you insist on shaping than the curved eyebrows look outstanding. A soft angled eyebrow is what suits this face best. Here’s how you can see the difference.

 



For the Round Face Shape
For the round face shape you need to make it appear less round by making the face look longer. A high arched eyebrow gives an up down look and elongates the face. People with a round face should stay away from rounded eyebrows, as it will make your face look more round. If you have thin brow line then you can avoid the  highly arched brows and  opt for a soft angled eyebrow (similar to oval face).

NOTE:The idea is to draw attention to your features and not over do them. If you over pluck or thread them thinly you will tend to look older. Keep your brow hair neatly groomed and its okay to have thick, bushy & bold eyebrows!


Post Wax Skin Pampering

Post Wax Skin Pampering



 



Post Wax Skin care :Agreed that waxing is a cheaper option for hair removal, when compared to expensive laser treatments and messy hair removal creams! We have accepted that this waxing procedure is the most sought after treatment to remove hair but we also need to take care of our skin post the waxing session.


Presenting a few tips to pamper the dermis layer after your follicles are pulled out.


1. First and foremost you need an expert to wax your skin, so go to a reputed salon to get this done. If the hair is pulled in the wrong direction, or improperly done can lead to rashes and skin damage.


2. Ask for the throw away hair removal strips and not cloth strips which are fortunately not being used nowadays. This prevents any kind of infection.

3.Scrub your arms or legs with a good scrub when you bathe in the morning the day you want to wax. Clearing the skin of any dead skin helps in making it soft and easy to wax later on.

4.If you have tan on your hands and feet you can first bleach the skin and then wax it . This is very effective and both the treatments help in tan removal.

5.After waxing a good quality astringent should be applied. Rose water also is great for soothing the skin.


6.If you are prone to rashes and reddishness on the skin ask for ice packs to be applied on the skin to help you give relief.


7.If you are getting your underarms waxed the same tips can be followed and have the therapist press your skin when she waxes it so that it doesn’t hurt your skin.

Slimy Snail Facial

Slimy Snail Facial

 

Snail Slime Facial: The vanity of a woman “Vanity is becoming a nuisance; I can see why women give it up, eventually. But I'm not ready for that yet.” said Margaret Atwood from the Cat's Eye. And the kind of things that women do to stay beautiful the list is endless , from the Egyptian queen Cleopatra bathing in asses milk to Victoria Beckham’s nightingale poop facial , the latest facial treatment to hit the market is the  Snail Slime Facial!



Yes ! You heard us right, this latest fad from Japan where snails are put on your face for a period of time and they craw over your face and release secretions which are good for the skin. But for this process snails are reared in clean environment and fed on organic vegetables which make it safe for using in this procedure. But it costs a lot and is yet to hit the World Market.


But there is another alternative and that is the Snail creams which contain proteins, glycolic acids and elastin which are extracted from the snail secretions and this helps in restoring damaged tissue and skin hydration. This definitely sounds and will feel much better than having snails on your face. But this is only for the brave hearted...

How to glow like a bride


 

Turmeric Face Mask:The Turmeric spice powder has long been known for its medicinal and beautification properties. Apart from being an excellent anti bacterial it also has the power to tighten facial pores which is an important anti aging regime.Check out this easy DIY face mask for skin tightening.


What you need:

•    ½ teaspoon Honey


Mix the dry ingredients first in a glass bowl and then add the liquids, i.e milk and honey and mix into a nice paste. Apply this paste till it dries and becomes hard. The reason why we use whole wheat is because it acts as a drying agent and Turmeric if applied directly can be very harsh on the skin.



TIP: If Turmeric is mixed with milk cream it makes a great pack for dry skin textures and if applied with the above ingredients it makes for a good face mask for oily skin textures. Turmeric is applied to the bride the day before she  gets married ( when she is officially made a bride) and this is suppose to be the secret of her glowing skin in the days of yore.

Foundation for Dark Skin Tones

Foundation for Dark Skin Tones

 

With Nandita Das endorsing Dark Is Beautiful we totally agree with her. Some of the most beautiful women in the world have been dusky, starting from Rekha to Bipasha Basu, from Kajol to Priyanka Chopra … And if you look at singers like Beyonce Knowles and J Lo they all look gorgeous with their dark andbronzed skin tones. So apart from their natural beauty which is enhanced with makeup, you probably wonder about the makeup used for these beauties.

 


 


Now with dark skin tone varying from really dark to caramel dark you need to figure out your skin tone. Simple  if you fall into the tan to light brown complexion range, you mostly have yellow undertones  and if you fall in the medium to deep skin complexion range, you most likely have neutral to warm brown undertones.


Choose a good makeup brand like L’Orieal, Mac, or Cover Girl which have ideal shades for the dark skin tones and do a test on the face. Do not test it on your fingers or the top of your palm. And you need to check if this blends well with your skin and doesnt look cakey or like a patch.Since most of the dark skin tone people have oily skin it would be better if you choose the mineral make up and not the liquid foundation which could make you look more oily.The same priciple works for the bronzed skin tones.



So go get your foundation for a gorgeous skin and make up!  Dark is Beautful...


DIY Beauty Treatment for soft and silky legs

DIY Beauty Treatment for soft and silky legs

Beauty Treatment for legs:So we know facials are for the face and pedicures are for the feet. But what about the thighs and our legs which carry our weight and body? Apart from the overall massage you get for yourself, if you are into spas and therapies it’s equally important to treat your legs to some TLC. When you get your pedicure done and you feel the smooth heels and supple feet you can achieve the same thing for your legs to. Here’s how:

 


  • First scrub your legs with a strong apricot scrub which is slightly grainier than the ones you use for your face. If that works out to be expensive, take salt and sugar in equal quantities with a good moisturizer and rub vigorously all over your legs and in between the thighs. Work  hard on the cellulite parts also.
  • After that, use almond/coconut/olive oil and massage your legs from thighs to the ankles focusing on each part of the leg. This should be done for a good 15-20 minutes.
  • Dip a large turkey towel in Hot water and squeeze out the excess water and apply the towel to your legs, separately dipping and squeezing for each leg.
  • After the steam make a mixture with fresh aloe vera gel and vitamin E oil and apply it to your legs.
  • If you have dark inner thighs make a separate pack with lemon juice, milk and honey and apply it there as natural bleach. TIP:You can use this regularly to remove the darkness in between the thighs.

Wash of the pack cleanly and pat dry with a soft towel  for those soft and silky legs!

 


Tips for Happy Hair this Monsoon

Tips for Happy Hair this Monsoon

The rains bring in a lot of respite from the heat and dust and we are ever thankful to the Universe for this pleasant change. There is nothing more wonderful than feeling the drops of rain on your face, but when the hair gets wet is when you feel the itchy and flakiness of the scalp. This leads to a smelly scalp and the hair becomes limp. Just as in summer, the hair also needs TLC and some pampering for nourishment and a healthy bounce. Check out this DIY regime for healthy hair in the monsoons:


1. Oil your hair regularly at least every weekend as this keeps the scalp nourished and strong. Check out this link for oiling your hair the right way…

2. When we get wet in the rain which is unavoidable sometimes we just take a shower and leave the hair to dry by itself or just towel dry it. This leads to the stimulation of the sebaceous glands in the scalp which leads to itchy scalp and sometimes dandruff. So please wash your hair with a mild shampoo to wash of the grime after you reach home.


3. It would be best to trim your hair and keep it slightly shorter than usual as you would be frequently washing your hair in the rainy season. If you are into gymming everyday you need to wash your hair daily so it’s best to get yourself a short hair cut.


4. Avoid  blow drying with hot air option, using those curling rods and heating tongs, as the heat from these instruments are a complete no no when it comes to the dampness in the air and your hair styles may not last long enough and could become limp.


5.
Avoid eating oily and greasy food and stick to healthy diet with fresh veggies, fruits, salads, warm soups and staying hydrated whether its summer, monsoons or the cold winters.


Use an umbrella or wear a rain coat to protect your hair and yourself and just follow these tips for a healthy and happy hair these monsoons.

Do you have smelly pierced ear holes

Do you have smelly pierced ear holes?



Smelly Ear Holes:  A common problem which we ladies have is that strange stink coming from your pierced ear holes. And when you wear other metallic earrings it could also lead to a dry skin layer formed near the lobes. For those who are allergic to metals other than gold and silver, this could lead to bleeding and when the dry skin layer or scab is cleaned the bleeding starts again.


The smell attributed to behind the ear-hole lobes has many reasons:
First being the accumulation of dead skin cells, soap, lotion, hair products, natural body oils over a course of time
Prolonged wearing of the same earring for many days and that too if it’s the screw type earrings.
When you wear inferior quality metallic earrings, the metal tends to irritate the skin and cause the smell and for some people lead to bleeding as mentioned above.


OK so now we have figured out the reason behind the stink so how do we prevent the annoying smell?Check out these tips to help you keep your ear hole clean and fresh:

•    Like many of you have been doing -periodically cleaning the pierced ear holes with warm water and moist cotton.
•    Frequently changing your earrings and avoid tightening the screw behind till the last thread.
•    Avoid wearing cheap quality earrings for too long no matter how stylish you want to look.
•    Cleaning your pierced holes with an alcohol based solution, like a perfume, after shave or Listerine which is also said to clean the gunk faster.
•    Also clean the gold earrings with the solution and then store them so that you don’t put the earrings away and wear the same smelly things.
•    Take a neem twig and make it thin enough to fit into your pierced holes and run it through to clean anything in the hole. You could also use a tooth pick instead, if you can’t get your hands on a neem twig.
•    Occasionally leave the ears earring -free and give them some Oxygen to breathe.


For those with multiple ear piercings, guess you need to follow the above steps more often to avoid a smelly Earline!!! DO share your feedback and suggestions for keeping your ear lobes clean.

Tips to Hide Receding Hairline

Tips to Hide Receding Hairline


One of the common problems women face after their 30s is the receding hairline in the crown area. There are many causes attributed to this hair loss which includes, hormonal imbalance, onset of menopause, infections in the scalp, excessive use of medication for treating gynecological problems, over use of hair styling tools, perming and excessive pulling of hair

Medication can cure this visible problem, but you could also try these tips to cover your crown area to avoid the thin look.



  • Part your hair and let it naturally fall on your face. Avoid pulling your hair backwards as it will further emphasize the problem area.
  • The other way to hide a receding hairline in women is avoiding taut ponytails or buns (although they help in lifting your face). Go for lose and messy traditional ponytails, which will ensure a healthy scalp and hairline.

  • Use bangs to hide balding or thinning hairline. Blunt and straight bangs i.e. haircuts  just above your face are a great way to cover your  forehead. You can also try side swept bangs as they can hide your hairline.
  • Try a shorter hair cut that will reduce the contract between the rest of your hair and your hairline that is receding.

  • Try using hairband to cover the foreline , but this can be worn depending on the dress you wear

The last option would be to go for wigs that can be washed, flat ironed, curled, etc.

Katori Wax Vs Threading facial Hair

Katori Wax Vs Threading facial Hair


 

The “Katori Wax “ which is still offered in regular and ‘Chinese’ Salons ( the high end salons are not offering these anymore as they find it outdated ) is an easier option for removing hair on the upper lips, side burns and chin and sometimes cheek areas. As the name suggests it is wax which comes in a metal bowl which is directly heated over the flame and once it cools to a bearable heat , the wax is applied on the facial hair. The hot wax is applied over the hair and tapped till its cooled and you can feel the wax turning tight. The cooled wax is slowly pulled off in the reverse direction and the hair stuck along with the wax is removed. But since it does involve a bit of hot wax and reverse pull of the hair most of the ladies prefer threading as an easier and pain free option.

 

 

If you examine the pros and cons of waxing and threading, both of them are equally good to remove facial hair.

1. Katori wax helps in removing the hair from the follicle level whereas threading is superficial.

2. With waxing the hair growth is reduced (depending on the rate of the hair growth ).But when it comes to threading the chance of hair growth can be anywhere between 15 to 20 days - which means another visit to the parlour.

3. Large areas of the facial hair should not be waxed as it can cause rashes and lead to infections. Threading can be done anywhere but when it comes to the sideburns it is not quite practical to thread it, as it can hurt your skin and it would not be possible to remove most of the excess hair.

Quick tip:But all this is based on the skin sensitivity which varies from person to person. So you could find a healthy option of combining both the methods. You could use the Katori wax on the side burns and thread your upper lips and chin or wax the sideburns and chin and thread your upper lips. Either ways the choice of waxing vis a vis threading facial hair is a pocket friendly and pain-free option to remove facial hair.We will post details as to how you can DIY removal of facial hair at home the next time...

ఈ మధ్యకాలంలో ప్రతి ఒక్కరు ఎదుర్కుంటున్న సమస్య జుట్టు రాలిపోవడం. దిన్ని అధిగమించాలంటే జుట్టుకు సరైన పోషణ అందించాలి. వారంలో కనీసం రెండుసార్లైన నూనె పెట్టి మర్దన చేసి ఒక గంట తరువాత మనకు న్యాచురల్ గా దొరికే కుంకుడుకాయ రసం తో తల స్నానం చేయడం వల్ల కొంతైనా హెయిర్ ఫాల్ సమస్య నుంచి బయటపడొచ్చు. జుట్టు రాలకుండా కాపాడటంలో మందారం కీలకపాత్ర పోషిస్తుంది...

వెంట్రుకలు చిట్లిపోకుండా : వెంట్రుకలు చిట్లిపోకుండా ఉండాలంటే ఒక కప్పు పుల్లటి పెరుగులో రెండు టీ స్పూన్ల మందారపొడి వేసి బాగా కలిపి జట్టుకి పట్టించాలి

జుట్టు ఎదుగుదలకు పోషకపదార్ధాలు,ప్రోటిన్స్ అవసరం కాబట్టి బలమైన పోషక పదార్ధాలైన పాలు,పళ్ళరసాలు రోజు తీసుకునే ఆహారంలో ఉదెల చూసుకోవాలి.

జుట్టురాలిపోవడానికి కారణం అనారోగ్య సమస్యలు కూడా కావచ్చు. మనం పై మెరుగులు ఎన్ని చేసినా జుట్టు లోపలి నుంచి ఆరోగ్యంగా ఉండాలంటే అవసరమైన ఆందోళనలకు గురికాకుండామనసును ఎప్పుడూ ప్రశాంతంగా ఉంచుకుంటూ ఈ చిన్న చిట్కాలను పాటిస్తూ ఆరోగ్యమైన జుట్టును మీ సొంతం చేసుకోండి...

One ingredient facial scrubs with no harm !

One ingredient facial scrubs with no harm !

I am pretty cautious with the store bought cosmetics or toiletry products. And so in search of All-Natural products, i found a few very easy to make facial scrubs. These are single ingredient. Either you already have the raw materials at home or just buy a single item to prepare these scrubs.

Homemade scrubs with no harm, Homemade facial, Homemade Almond scrub, almond scrub benefits

 

Almond scrub: Buy or find some healthy n fresh almonds, grate them into thin slices, then simply  Make a semi-coarse powder. Store it in an air tight vessel and use it to wash your face or scrub it. You dont have to worry about any harsh chemicals, any skin tearing, reactions, or even using much moisturiser after washing the face if your face is oily by nature. Almonds have natural oils and you will notice the difference the first time you use it. This scrub is so safe on the skin, it removes black and white heads without irritating and bruising the skin.

Similarly, take a few Walnuts pieces, make a semi-coarse powder and follow the same steps. Most of the store-bought scrubs include Walnuts, Apricots and Almonds...we just deleted the unnecessary chemicals and toxins. There is no expiry date either, as long as you store it away from moist areas and in air-tight containers. They are perfect as gift options too !!

* రోజ్‌వాటర్, గ్లిజరిన్ కలిపి కాళ్ళ పగుళ్ళున్న చోట దూదితో రాయాలి. పావుగంట తర్వాత చల్లని నీటితో కడిగేయాలి. ఇలా తరచుగా చేస్తే పగుళ్ళు క్రమంగా తగ్గిపోయి కాళ్ళు మృదువుగా కనిపిస్తాయి.

*  రెండు స్పూన్ల గోధుమపిండి, కప్పు పెరుగు కలిపి పేస్ట్‌లా చేసి ముఖానికి రాయాలి. అరగంట తర్వాత ముఖాన్ని శుభ్రం చేయాలి. ఇలా చేస్తే ముఖం మృదువుగా ఉంటుంది.

Simple Beautifying Ingredients

Simple Beautifying Ingredients

Beauty is synonymous with Cosmetics, which include toxic and even cancer-causing ingredients. Fortunately, safe, natural and affordable alternatives-including homemade shampoos, conditioners, moisturizers, bath salts, body scrubs and body butters-are coming available at many stores and can also be easily made at home too. 


We all want to avoid using phthalates, cetyl alcohol, sodium laureth sulfate, parabens and many other chemicals in the form of cosmetics and other toiletry products, such as lotions, scrubs, creams, oils, perfumes and makeup items...these poisonous chemicals are certainly not listed on the packs. 
 

Our kitchen and pantry are the best sources of some safe and healthy items that can be either directly used or can be combined with other items for best results. Here are a few body-favorite ingredients for home treatments:


HONEY: Honey is perfect for conditioning dry, damaged hair and rinses out easily.
 

SOUR CREAM: ( Sour Yoghurt) makes a great facial mask for softening and cleansing a dull complexion.

 

GREEN TEA: it is packed with antioxidants and tones skin with no need to rinse off.


OATMEAL: it can be used instead of soap to cleanse all skin types.

PINEAPPLE JUICE: it soothes tired feet and softens rough patches.

BAKING SODA: it works head to toe as a hair rinse, facial scrub and bath soap.
 

OLIVE OIL: using it in a nail soak keeps nails clean, flexible and strong.

Homemade Body Butter

 

 Homemade Body Butter

 


Homemade beauty products are a natural outlet for anyone that loves to cook or craft. Making a small batch to experiment, and if it clicks, making it regularly or even gifting...or one step higher, making many and many batches to start and run a small business is a wonderful idea..as these items don't involve chemicals, adding or removing the amounts to suit our skin and hair types doesn't cause any reactions.

Gifting will become easy too, as you don't have to run to the stores looking for items. Just buy interesting jars or tins to pack your homemade beauty products, embellish them with ribbons or pretty gift packing. One idea is baby-food glass jars. I stored and keep buying baby-food jars just to store my homemade creams and butters.

To make 4 oz. of BODY BUTTER at home:

1/4 cup grated cocoa butter
1 Tbsp coconut oil
2 Tbsp light sesame oil
1 Tbsp almond oil
1 Tbsp grated beeswax
Combine all ingredients in a heat-resistant container. On the stove top, gently heat the mixture until it begins to melt. Remove from heat and stir well until the wax and cocoa butter are melted and all ingredients are mixed together. pour into a clean container and allow to cool completely. If you want to make an organic boby butter, try to find organic ingredients and call yours organic too !

This rich, creamy butter makes a wonderful all-over body cream, as it contains four well-known skin conditioning oils.

Homemade Bath Salt

 

Homemade Bath Salt

 

 

Age old science states that Ancient Doctors suggested people with skin ailments and allergies to soak in sea water or hot springs as treatment. Similarly, bath salts have been in usage for the same purpose from quite sometime. Common man usually doesn't think of bath salts, however, their usage relates to muscle relaxation and even treatment of arthritis. Here is an easy method to prepare one such bath salt at home, and it need not be used for whole body soak with people not finding enough time to take a lazy shower, they can be considered for foot soaks too.

Muscle Soothing Bath Salt:
Makes 24 oz

1cup kosher salt or Sea Salt, we don't need iodized salt here.
1cup Baking Soda
1cup Epsom salt

Mix all ingredients together and pour into a clean, dry glass or BPA free plastic container.
At the time of use, pour one cup of the mixture into warm tub slowly, allowing the salts to dissolve completely.
Soak your body for atleast 20 minutes, but no more than 40 minutes. ( Scientific reason unknown)..

This bath salt mixture is perfect for relaxing and refreshing the whole body. You can even add few drops of your favourite essential oils to the mixture for a pleasant scent.

Homemade Basic Shampoo

 

Homemade Basic Shampoo

 

 

We are learning about making homemade beauty products. Today its the shampoo's turn, a non-artificial dye, non-perfumed simple HARMLESS shampoo. This is a great shampoo for all hair types because it is gentle on hair and won't strip away the natural oils.

For 8 oz. basic shampoo:
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup mild natural liquid soap ( like Dr. Bronner's or any Castile soap)
1/2 tsp light vegetable oil ( optional)
If hair is oily, the optional vegetable oil may be omitted. But if hair is dry or damaged, include it for extra softness and conditioning.

Gently stir all the ingredients together, carefully not to create any foam. Pour the mixture into a clean BPA free plastic container.
When using, shampoo as normal, and then rinse well with cool water.

Note:
1) It maynot create as much lather as the commercial shampoos do, but it washes the hair well and does no damage.
2) Because we haven't used any tearfree formula, the resulting shampoo is also a non-tearfree shampoo, hence not recommended for young children. Otherwise, if there is a tearfree Castile liquid soap available atall( which i am not aware of), please consider using it.

ఇలా చేస్తే మొటిమలు మటాష్

 

 ఇలా చేస్తే మొటిమలు మటాష్


ఒక్క మొటిమ చాలు మన సంతోషాన్ని పాడుచేయడానికి. మొటిమలు చాలా  నొప్పిగా ఉండటమే కాకుండా  అందాన్ని పోగొడతాయి. ఏ పార్టీకన్నా , ఫంక్షన్ కన్నా వెళ్ళాల్సినప్పుడు ముఖము మీద  మొటిమలు  చాలా  ఇబ్బందిని కలిగిస్తాయి. కాస్త శ్రద్ధ చూపిస్తే చాలు మొటిమలు ఈజీగా తగ్గిపోతాయి. ఈ క్రింది  జాగ్రత్తలు పాటించి చూడండి.. మొటిమలు మాయమవ్వకపోతే అప్పుడు అడగండి.

  ముల్తాని మట్టికి రోజ్ వాటర్ కలిపి ముఖానికి ప్యాక్ వేసుకుంటే మొటిమలు తగ్గుతాయి. అంతే కాకుండా ముఖం చాలా  అందంగా కనిపిస్తుంది.

* జాజికాయను నీటిలో నానబెట్టి, తరువాత అరగదీసి ఆ లేపనాన్ని ముఖానికి రాస్తే మొటిమలు తగ్గుతాయి.

* బియ్యం కడిగిన నీటిని ముఖం మీద ఉన్న మొటిమలపైన మృదువుగా రుద్దితే మొటిమలను తగ్గించుకోవచ్చు.

*
బయటకు వెళ్ళి వచ్చినప్పుడు, చల్లటి నీళ్ళతో ముఖం మీద దుమ్ము పోయేలా ముఖం కడుక్కోవాలి. దుమ్ము వల్ల కూడా మొటిమలు వచ్చే అవకాశం ఉంది.

*
వేప ఆకులను నీళ్ళలో ఉడికించి, ఆ నీటిని ఎక్కువ  నీళ్ళలో కలుపుకుని స్నానం చేస్తే చాలా మంచిది. ఇలా చేయడంవల్ల మొటిమలే కాదు అనేక రకాల చర్మ వ్యాధులు కూడా తగ్గుతాయి

*
పసుపును నిమ్మరసంతో కలిపి ముఖానికి రాస్తే  మొటిమలు తగ్గుతాయి.

Trends for the Winter Festive Season!

 

Trends for the Winter Festive Season!

 



With Chirstmas and New year arriving, it is once again party season, even in the non-western countries too. Festive gatherings, get togethers, office parties and such give the fashionistas ample oppurtunities to sport the latest trends of winter fashion. If you are also one who is looking to change your looks, then read ahead.

Hair for the Holidays: we are talking about showing off a new hair color here. Try lowlights first, to test, then decide if you would keep your rest of the tresses dark or color fully. Shades gaining steam this season are the sultry ones, soft auburns, icy blondes.

Fo the ladies who are color-shy, try switching up your hair cut to a fishtail or side bang braid. For s party, try a messy bouffant or a sleek, high ponytail which add class.

Fresh face in Winter: just because its a dull winter, you need not use bright colors to make the surroundings look brighter. Though Red Lips are in this season too, balance the other areas of the face. If your eyes are in smoky metallic shades, leave the lips with just a nude gloss. If you choose a bright red or pink for the lips, let the eyes carry only mascara and a soft, earth-toned eyeliner. Whatever you play with the eyes and lips, just add a wind-kissed look to your cheeks, with blush in soft, rosy or bronzes hues.

Dress codes: Westerly festive season it is....the layered Tees and Leather Jackets, Midi-skirts, cozy cashmere sweaters, a white dress, one black dress, silks and strappy stilettos add style and sophistication.

Add details: After the face and the dress, nows the turn to choose the details....try metallic nail lacquers in silver, gold or bronzes for parties, the creamy, opaque, earth and slate colors are perfect for everyday wear. Turn to jewellery now. Try the burgundy and lilac colors that pair perfectly with black dresses, for that office party.

Carry everything with confidence....you are the best!!

Winter Care

 Winter Care

 

 

During winter season our skin becomes dry due to cold waves. The Best way to nourish your skin is - oil massage. There are quite a number of oils for massaging, some of them can be found in our kitchen itself!

Coconut oil is one of the commonest oil, which would be definitely available at our homes. Usage of coconut oil is a wonderful and natural way to make your hair and skin soft, radiant, and healthy. As Coconut oil is natural, it is free of chemicals and side effects. Ditch your deep conditioners, under-eye creams, and lotions and replace them with coconut oil. Grab a bottle of unrefined coconut oil, which will do wonders for your skin and hair. 

Olive oil is rich in vitamins, minerals and natural fatty acids. Now a days Olive is being used in anti-aging skin care products as it is rich in antioxidants, prevents skin aging, delays the onset of wrinkles and fine lines; nourishes and rejuvenates the skin. There are different varieties of olive oil available in the market. Extra virgin olive oil is the best!

Almond oil is rich in Vitamin A, B and E, which are great for skin health. In fact, most skin care products have these vitamins loaded in them. The oil helps in maintaining moisture levels of the skin and gets absorbed instantaneously without clogging the pores.

Take any one variety of oil and apply it over your skin and massage it gently before going to bath. Even after bath, you will see your skin will not become dry. You can check your skin by a nail scratch, if white scratch appears your skin is still dry.

So, take time to pamper your skin with oil massage and to maintain it ever-radiant!

కాలుష్యం.. కాలుష్యం.. ఈరోజుల్లో అడుగు బయటపెట్టామంటే కాలుష్యంలోకి అడుగు పెట్టామన్నమాటే. ఈ కాలుష్యం వల్ల బాగా ప్రభావితం అయ్యే మన శరీర భాగాల్లో ముఖం చాలా ముఖ్యమైనది. ముఖం మీద కాలుష్యం పేరుకుపోతే అది చర్మ ఆరోగ్యాన్ని దెబ్బతీసే అవకాశం వుంది. ముఖ్యంగా సున్నితమైన చర్మం వుండే అమ్మాయిలు తమ ముఖాన్ని కాపాడుకోవాలి.. ముఖాన్ని శుభ్రం చేసుకునే విషయంలో అదనపు శ్రద్ధ చూపించాలి. సరైన పద్ధతిలో ముఖాన్ని క్లీన్ చేసుకోవడం వల్ల కాలుష్యం, మురికి ముఖాన్ని వదిలిపోవడం మాత్రమే కాకుండా ముఖంలోని స్కిన్ సెల్స్ నిరంతరం ఆరోగ్యంగా వుంటాయి. తద్వారా అందంతోపాటు ఆరోగ్యం కూడా మన సొంతమవుతుంది. ఇప్పుడు ముఖాన్ని శుభ్రం చేసుకోవడంలో అనుసరించాల్సిన కొన్ని టిప్స్ మీకోసం....

1. మీది ఎలాంటి తరహా చర్మమైనా రోజుకు రెండుసార్లు ముఖాన్ని శుభ్రం చేసుకుంటే చాలు. అంతకు మించి ముఖాన్ని శుభ్రం చేసుకోవాల్సిన అవసరం లేదు. ఎక్కువ శుభ్రం చేసుకున్నా మంచిది కాదు. ఎందుకంటే, శరీరం మీద వుండే నేచురల్ ఆయిల్స్ పోతాయి.

2. మీ శరీర తత్వానికి సరిపోయే క్లిన్సర్లను మాత్రమే ఉపయోగించాలి. ముఖాన్ని శుభ్రం చేసుకోవడానికి సబ్బులను ఉపయోగించడం తగ్గిస్తే మంచింది.

3. ముఖాన్ని శుభ్రం చేసుకోవడానికి ఉపయోగించే నీరు గోరు వెచ్చగా వుంటే మంచింది. బాగా వేడినీరుగానీ, బాగా చల్లగా వుండే నీరుగానీ శ్రేయస్కరం కాదు.

4. ముఖాన్ని శుభ్రం చేసుకోవడానికి వాష్ క్లాత్, స్పాంజ్ ఉపయోగించేవారు అవి శుభ్రంగా వున్నాయా లేదా అనే విషయాన్ని ముందుగానే పరీక్షించుకోవాలి. అపరిశుభ్రంగా వున్నవాటిని ఉపయోగించడం మంచిది కాదు.

5. ముఖాన్ని కడుక్కునే ముందు మీ చేతుల్ని శుభ్రం చేసుకోవాలి. అలాగే హెడ్ బ్యాండ్ కూడా వేసుకోవాలి. ముఖం కడుక్కునే సమయంలో జుట్టు ముఖం మీద పడకుండా జాగ్రత్తపడాలి.

6. మొదట ముఖం మీద నీళ్ళు వేగంగా చల్లుకుని ముఖాన్ని కడుక్కోవడం ప్రారంభించాలి. ముఖం మాత్రమే కాదు.. మెడను కూడా శుభ్రం చేసుకోవడం మరచిపోవద్దు.

7. చేతిలోగానీ, స్పాంజ్ మీద గానీ క్లినసర్‌ తీసుకుని దాన్ని ముఖం మీద కింద నుంచి పైకి రుద్దుకోవాలి. అలాగే మెడ మీద కూడా క్లినసర్ ఉపయోగించాలి. ముఖం మీద చాలా సున్నితంగా ఒత్తిడి కలిగించాలి. గట్టిగా రుద్దడం వల్ల చర్మం పాడవుతుంది. ముఖం కడిగే సమయంలో కళ్ళ చుట్టూ చాలా మృదువుగా రుద్దాలి.

8. ముఖాన్ని శుభ్రం చేసుకోవడానికి క్లినసర్ ఉపయోగించినప్పుడు, ముఖానికి అప్లయ్ చేసిన క్లినసర్ మొత్తం పోయేలా గోరువెచ్చని నీటితో కడగాలి. అరకొరగా కడగడం మంచిది కాదు.

9. ముఖాన్నిశుభ్రం చేసుకున్న తర్వాత టవల్‌తో తుడుచుకునే పద్ధతి కూడా చాలా ముఖ్యం. టవల్‌తో చాలా మృదువుగా ముఖం మీద అద్దుకోవాలంతే. టవల్ని ముఖం మీద ఎట్టి పరిస్థితుల్లోనూ గట్టిగా అదిమిపెట్టి రుద్దకూడదు.

10. ముఖాన్ని నీటితో, క్లినసర్‌తో శుభ్రం చేసుకుని, టవల్‌తో తుడుచుకున్న తర్వాత వాటర్‌ బేస్‌తో వుంటే టోనర్లను ముఖానికి రాసుకోవాలి. ఇది ముఖం మీద వుండే సహజమైన తేమను నిలుపుతుంది.

Take care of your feet during this winter

 Take care of your feet during this winter

 




During winter, your skins needs extra moisture and so whenever possible, rub a good quality moisturizer on to your heels and the soles of your feet. Make it a point to apply some moisturizer before going to bed 

Spare some time every night to cleanse your feet and get to work on them with a pumice stone. It only takes a minute or two. After that, massage with your beloved foot lotion. Concentrate on pressure points on sole of your feet and along the length of your toes. 

Some regular tips to be followed, besides cleaning:
  Drink loads of water. Keeping our body internally hydrated, which in turn keeps our skin plump and devoid of dryness. Hydration not only aids our skin but also our nails and cuticles.  With this in mind, try skipping dehydrating drinks like coffee, sugary soft drinks and alcohol.
 1) Give your feet a rest every other day or so and wear flat, comfortable shoes. Squashing them into tight, sky-high heels may look stylish, but they strain your legs and ankles.
 
 2) Wearing socks and keeping our feet covered and protecting them from the harsh elements of the environment.
 
 3) If you are wearing socks, try to stick with natural fabrics, like cotton and wool. Avoid synthetic blends, as they can cause your feet to sweat and smell.
 
4) Cold weather attracts enumerable bacterial and fungal infections. Keeping nails cleaning and using fresh socks everyday are the small things to be kept in mind. 
These small caring tips will add up to your elegance!!

Most of us, view papaya as good source of nutrients for maintaining good health, but it can be used as a skin rejuvenator

too!

Take a spoon of papaya pulp and few drops of honey, and massage it evenly over your face. Let it be for 10 – 15

minutes. Then wash off with cold water.
Repeat this whenever free or when you gorge on papaya!



Instantaneous Cleanser!


Take a small piece of tomato and rub all-over your face, neck, hands and elbows.  Leave as it is for about 20 minutes. If

you are too lazy to wash it, massage with tomato before going to bed and leave it overnight and wash it in the morning.

By doing so, the incidences as well as prominence of the pimples are reduced owing to the acidic content of tomato; it

also lightens up your skin!




Home-made De-Tan Potion!


Take 2 full spoons of curd; add a spoon of Besan and ¼ spoon of turmeric powder. If your skin is oily add few drops of

lime juice. If your skin is too dry you can add cream too!

Apply this mixture as a thick paste over your tanned skin and leave it for an hour and then wash off with lukewarm  water.

 

 

 


If your skin is too tanned then repeat it twice a day for speedy results!

అరటితో అందం

 

అరటితో అందం



అరటిపండు కాస్త మెత్తగా అయితే పిల్లలు తినటానికి ఇష్టపడరు . అప్పుడు ఆ పండిన అరటిపండుతో అందానికి మెరుగులు దిద్దుకోవటం ఎలాగో చూద్దాం.


1. అరటిపండుని మెత్తటి గుజ్జుగా చేసుకుని ఓ చెమ్చా చిక్కటి పాలు, ఓ చెమ్చా  ఓట్మీల్ పొడిని కలపాలి. ఆ మిశ్రమాన్ని ముఖానికి పట్టించి, ఆరాక సున్నితంగా రుద్దాలి. ఆ తర్వాత గోరువెచ్చటి నీటితో ముఖాన్ని కడిగితే చర్మం తాజాగా కనిపిస్తుంది.

2. అలాగే అరటి గుజ్జులో ఓ చెమ్చా శనగపిండి, ఓ చెమ్చా పాలు కలిపి ముఖానికి ప్యాక్‌లా వేసుకోవచ్చు. పది నిమిషాల తర్వాత కడిగేస్తే, మృత కణాలు పోయి ముఖం తాజాగా వుంటుంది.

3. అరటిగుజ్జులో  నిమ్మరసం, పెరుగు కలిపి ఆ మిశ్రమాన్ని ముఖానికి ప్యాక్‌లా వేసుకుంటే ముఖానికున్న మురికి సులువుగా వదులుతుంది.

4. అరటిగుజ్జుతో మోచేతులు, మెడ వంటి చోట రుద్దితే కూడా మంచి ఫలితం వుంటుంది.
 
అరటిపండులో వుండే యాంటి బ్యాక్టీరియల్ గుణాలు, అందులోని విటమిన్ - ఎ, పొటాషియం వంటివి చర్మానికి మృదుత్వాన్ని అందిస్తాయి. కాబట్టి వారానికి ఒకసారి అయినా అరటిపండుని చర్మ సౌందర్యానికి వాడటం మంచిది.

 ఆరెంజ్ ప్యాక్‌తో అందం అదరహో...

 

 


అందం అంటే మగువ, మగువ అంటే అందం. అలాంటి అందాన్ని కాపాడుకోవడానికి మగువలు బయట దొరికే కాస్మోటిక్స్ వాడుతుంటారు. అలా చేయడం వల్ల చర్మం పాడైపోయే ప్రమాదం ఉంది. అలా కాకుండా మనం ఇంట్లో వాడే వస్తువులతో కూడా మనం ఫేస్ ప్యాక్స్ తయారుచేసుకోవచ్చు. అలాంటి వాటిలో ఆరెంజ్ ఒకటి. ఇది తినడానికే కాదు  ఫేస్ ప్యాక్స్‌కు కూడా బాగా ఉపయోగపడుతుంది. ఇప్పుడు మీ కోసం కొన్ని ఆరెంజ్ ఫేస్ ప్యాక్‌లు....
  
* రెండు టేబుల్ స్పూన్ల పెరుగులో కొంచెం ఆరెంజ్ జ్యూస్ వేసి ఆ మిశ్రమాన్ని బాగా కలపాలి. కలిపిన మిశ్రమాన్ని ముఖానికి, మెడకు పట్టించి 15-20 నిమిషాలు ఉంచుకొని తరువాత  కొంచెం గోరువెచ్చని నీటితో కడిగేయాలి. ఇలా చేస్తే మీ ముఖం నునుపుగా మారటమే కాకుండా చల్లదనాన్ని ఇస్తుంది.

* రెండు టేబుల్ స్పూన్ల ఆరెంజ్ జ్యూస్, ఒక టేబుల్ స్పూన్ నిమ్మరసం,  ఒక టేబుల్ స్పూన్ తేనె తీసుకొని వాటిని బాగా కలిపి ముఖానికి , మెడకు రాసుకోవాలి. ఓ పదిహేను నిమిషాల తరువాత గోరు వెచ్చని నీటితో కడిగేయాలి. ఇలా చేయటం వల్ల మీ చర్మం పై ఉన్న మచ్చలు పోవడమే కాకుండా కాంతివంతమైన ముఖం మీ సొంతమవుతుంది.

* కొంచెం ఆరెంజ్ జ్యూస్ తీసుకొని దానిలో ముల్తాని మట్టి, పాలు కలిపి ఆ మిశ్రమాన్ని ముఖానికి పట్టించాలి. 30 నిమషాలు అలా ఉంచి గోరువెచ్చని నీటితో కడగాలి. 

* ఆరెంజ్ తొక్కలతో చేసిన పొడిలో  కొంచెం గంధం పొడి, పాలు / నీరు / రోజ్ వాటర్ వేసి బాగా కలపాలి. ఈ ప్యాక్ ను ముఖానికి పట్టించి 20 నిమిషాలు తరువాత గోరువెచ్చని నీటితో కడిగేయాలి. దీనివల్ల మీ చర్మం మీద ఉండే మృతకణాలు పోవడమే కాకుండా ముఖం మంచి కాంతివంతంగా తయారవుతుంది. 


బరువు తగ్గడం అమ్మాయిల జన్మహక్కు

 

బరువు తగ్గడం అమ్మాయిల జన్మహక్కు

 

 

బరువు పెరగడం తేలికే కాని తగ్గడం చాలా కష్టం. ఎక్కువ బరువు పెరిగిపోడంవల్ల సులువుగా చేసే పనులు కూడా చాలా కష్టపడి చేయాల్సి ఉంటుంది. ముఖ్యంగా స్త్రీలు ఒకే చోట కూర్చొని పనిచేయడం, బయట దొరికే జంక్ ఫుడ్ తినడం వల్ల ఎక్కువ బరువు పెరిగిపోతున్నారు. అలా కాకుండా ఉండాలంటే కింద చెప్పిన చిట్కాలు కొన్ని పాటిస్తే కొంతవరకైనా బరువు పెరగకుండా ఉండే అవకాశం ఉంది.

* సన్నని నాజుకైనా శరీరాకృతి కావాలంటే డైటింగ్ ఒక్కటి చేస్తే సరిపోదు. అందుకు తగిన వ్యాయామం కూడా చేయాలి.

* బాగా ఆకలిగా ఉన్నప్పుడు బయట దొరికే జంక్ ఫుడ్ తినకూడదు. అలా తినడం వల్ల ఎక్కువ కొవ్వు, తక్కువ పోషకాలు శరీరానికి అందుతాయి. దీంతో బరువు పెరిగే ప్రమాదం ఉంది.

*ఎక్కువ ఒత్తిడి ఉన్నప్పుడు డైట్ అసలు చేయకూడదు.

* ఉదయం బ్రేక్ ఫాస్ట్ తప్పనిసరిగా తీసుకోవాలి. దీనివల్ల కేలరీస్ సాయంత్రం వరకు ఉంటాయి. * ఆఫీస్ లకు వెళ్లేవారు ఇంటి దగ్గర తయారుచేసిన ఫుడ్ తీసుకెళ్లడమే మంచిది. ఇది శరీరానికి తక్కువ కేలరీలు, ఎక్కువ పోషకాలు ఇస్తుంది.

* ఆహారం తీసుకునేప్పుడు ఎక్కవ సేపు నమిలి తినాలి. ఇలా తినడం వల్ల తక్కువ ఆహారంతోనే మీకు సంతృప్తి కలుగుతుంది.

* ఆహారం తీసుకునే గంట ముందు ఒక గ్లాసు మంచినీళ్లు తాగితే తక్కువ ఆహారం తీసుకోవచ్చు.

* ఆయిల్ లో ఫ్రై చేసిన ఫిష్, చికెన్ లాంటివి తినకూడదు. బాయిల్ కాని రోస్ట్ కాని చేసినవి మాత్రమే తినాలి.

* ప్లాన్, ప్లాన్, ప్లాన్. మనం తీసుకునే ఆహారం ప్లానింగ్ ఉంటే బరువు పెరగటాన్ని నియంత్రించవచ్చు. మనం ఏ ఆహారం తీసుకుంటున్నామని కాదు ఎంత ఆహారం తీసుకుంటున్నామని ఆలోచించి తినాలి.



డోన్ట్ వర్రీ... బీ ‘హోలీ’

డోన్ట్ వర్రీ... బీ ‘హోలీ’

హోలీ అనగానే ఉషారుగా ఆడి పాడేస్తాం. కానీ ఆ తర్వాత ఆ రంగులు వారం అయినా వదలక ఇబ్బంది పెట్టడం మాత్రం కొంచం చికాకు పెడుతుంది . అలంటి ఇబ్బంది లేకుండా ఈ హోలీని మంచి జ్ఞాపకంగా ఎలా మార్చుకోవచ్చో నిపుణులు చేస్తున్నా కొన్ని సూచనలు మీకోసం ఇక్కడ.

1. అందరికి తెలిసిందే అయినా , మళ్ళీ ఒకసారి చెప్పుకోవలసిన మొదటి విషయం... హోలీ కి కెమికల్ కలర్స్ కాకుండా ఆర్గానిక్ కలర్స్ నే వాడటం మంచిది.

2. హోలీ రోజున వేసుకునే బట్టలు పూర్తిగా శరీరాన్ని కప్పి వుంచేవిగా వుండాలి. సల్వార్, కమీజు లాంటివి పొడవు చేతులతో ఉండేలా వేసుకుంటే హోలీ రంగులు నేరుగా శరీరాన్ని తాకే అవకాశం ఉండదు .

3. ఇక హోలీ రంగులతో ఎక్కువ నష్టపోయేది జుట్టు. పండగ రోజున తలారా స్నానం చేసాక, జుట్టు ఆరబెట్టుకుని కొంచం నూనె రాసి, గట్టిగా "పోనీ" వేసుకుంటే జుట్టుకు, మాడుకి రంగులు అంతగా అంటవు.

4. హోలీ రోజున ఉదయాన్నే శరీరానికి కొబ్బరి నూనె రాయాలి. దానివలన రంగులతో డ్రైగా మారకుండా వుంటుంది. అలానే ముఖానికి సన్ స్క్రీన్ లోషన్ పట్టించాలి.

5. వాటర్ ప్రూఫ్ మేకప్ వేసుకుంటే హోలీ సంబరాలు పూర్తి అయ్యేదాకా ఆ మేకప్ పాడవకుండా వుంటుంది. వాటర్ ప్రూఫ్ బేస్‌ని ముఖం నుంచి మెడ దాకా ఒక లేయర్‌గా వేసుకుంటే రంగులు చర్మానికి అతుక్కోకుండా వుంటాయి.

6. గోళ్ళని కాసేపు ఆలివ్ ఆయిల్‌లో ముంచి, ఆ తర్వాత గోళ్ళ రంగు వేయాలి. అప్పుడు హోలీ రంగుల ప్రభావం గోళ్ళ పైన పడకుండా వుంటుంది. ఇలాంటి కొన్ని జాగ్రత్తలు తీసుకుంటే , మరకల భయం లేకుండా హోలీ సంబరాలు సరదాగా చేసుకోవచ్చు.

భావోద్వేగాలను ఎప్పుడు, ఎలా, ఎంతవరకు వ్యక్తం చేయచ్చో తెలిసి తీరాలి ఓ విజేతకి. కొంతమంది కోపాన్ని అణచుకోలేరు. మరికొందరు బాధని, ఇంకొందరు సంతోషాన్ని. దేన్నయినా వెనకా ముందు చూడకుండా బయటకి వ్యక్తం చేయడం సరికాదు. ఎంత ఆత్మవిశ్వాసం వున్నా, ఎంత గొప్ప వ్యక్తిత్వం వున్నా ఈ ఒక్కటి చేతకాకపోతే ఇబ్బంది పడాల్సిందే. కాటుక ఒక్కటి సరిగా కుదరకపోతే ముఖంలోని అందమే మారిపోతుంది. అలానే ఈ భావోద్వేగాలు కూడా. మరి వాటిపై పట్టు సాధించటం ఎలా? కొంచెం శ్రమించాలి. కానీ, సాధ్యమే. తొణకుండా, బెణకకుండా, ఎదుటి వ్యక్తులను చులకన చేయకుండా, చెరగని చిరునవ్వు మాటున అంతరంగంలో చెలరేగే భావోద్వేగ సునామీలను దాచగలిగితే చాలు. మిమ్మల్ని మీరు జయించినట్టే. అలా అని ఆ భావోద్వేగాలని అస్సలు బయటపెట్టకుండా ఉండమని కాదు.  ఎప్పుడు, ఎలా వ్యక్తం చేయాలో తెలిసుండాలి. వాటిని వ్యక్తం చేయడంలో కూడా ఓ హుందాతనం వుండాలి. దాని నుంచి మీరు ఆశించే ఫలితం వచ్చి తీరాలి. కోపం ప్రేరణనివ్వాలి. ఆవేశం దూకుడునివ్వాలి. వ్యతిరేక భావోద్వేగాలని ప్రేరణాత్మకంగా మార్చుకోవటమే విజేతల ముఖ్య లక్షణం. అందుకే కాటుక అందం రెట్టింపు అయ్యేలా చూసుకోండి.

మాటలే పెదాల అందాలని పెంచే లిప్‌స్టిక్

మాటే ఆయుధం. దానిని ఎలా ఉపయోగించామన్నదే ముఖ్యం. మాట తీరుతోనే మన వ్యక్తిత్వం బయటపడేది. మాటతీరులోనే విజయం కానీ, అపజయం కానీ మనల్ని కావలించుకునేది. అందుకే అతి ముఖ్యమైన ఆకర్షణ పెంచే సౌందర్య సాధనం ఇది. ఎప్పుడూ సూటిగా, స్పష్టంగా మాట్లాడటం ముఖ్యం. మన ఆలోచనలని మాటలుగా మార్చి చెప్పగలగాలి. ఆ మాటలలో మన ఆత్మవిశ్వాసం ప్రస్ఫుటం కావాలి. మన మాట చల్లగా వుండాలి. ఆ మాటలు తమని తాకాలని ఎదుటివారు తపించేలా వుండాలి. మాటలలో కరుణ, ప్రేమ కలగలిస్తే ప్రపంచం ఆ మాటల కోసం తపించిపోతుంది. వాటి రుచి చూడాలని ఆరాటపడుతుంది. కొద్దిగా శ్రద్ధ పెడితే సులువుగా సాధించవచ్చు మాటల మీద పట్టుని.

ఇలా మన సౌందర్యానికి శాశ్వత మెరుగులు అద్దుకుంటే ప్రపంచమే మనల్ని విజేతలుగా నిలబెడుతుంది. కాలం కలిసొస్తుంది - ఆనందం నిన్ను వదలను ప్లీజ్ అంటుంది. ‘‘అప్పుడు జీవితమంటే ఇది’’ అనిపిస్తుంది. ఆ రుచి ఎలా వుంటుందో చెప్పటం కంటే స్వయంగా తెలుసుకుంటేనే బావుంటుంది.

అందరికీ  మహిళా దినోత్సవ శుభాకాంక్షలు. ప్రతీరోజూ మనదే. గడిచే రోజుపై మనదైన ముద్ర వేద్దాం. సగర్వంగా అంతెత్తున తలెత్తి ప్రపంచాన్ని పలకరిద్దాం.

మోచేతులకు మృదుత్వం ఇలా...


మోచేతులకు మృదుత్వం ఇలా...



అరచేతులు,  వెనక భాగం ముడతలతో, గరుకుగా వున్నా, అలాగే మోచేతుల వెనక కూడా గరుకుగా, నల్లగా వున్నా.. ఇంట్లోనే చిన్న చిన్న ప్రయత్నాలతో వాటిని మృదువుగా చేసుకోవచ్చు.  ఎలా అంటే...

1. దోసకాయ తో చర్మం మృదువుగా ..

దోసకాయలోని గింజలు తీసేసి గుజ్జుగా చేసుకోవాలి. దానిలో ఒక అరకప్పు మజ్జిగ , ఓ చెమ్చా ఉప్పు కలిపి (రాళ్ళ ఉప్పు అయితే మంచిది) , ముందుగా అరచేతులు, మోచేతులు దగ్గర వేడి నీటి బట్టతో తుడవాలి.  వేడినీటి వల్ల చర్మం మీద వున్న స్వేద గ్రంధులు బాగా తెరుచుకుంటాయి.  ఆ తర్వాత దోసకాయ మిశ్రమాన్ని అరచేతి వెనక, మోచేతి వెనక భాగాలకి రాసి  మృదువుగా రుద్దాలి. ఓ పది నిమిషాల తర్వాత శుభ్రంగా కడుక్కోవాలి. మజ్జిగలో వుండే లాక్టిక్ ఆమ్లం , ఉప్పు మృత చర్మ కణాలను తొలగించి నలుపు విరిగేలా చేస్తే, దోసలో వుండే పోషకాలు చర్మాన్ని మృదువుగా మారుస్తాయి.

2. సెనగపిండి తో నలుపు మాయం

సెనగపిండి లో కొంచం పసుపు, ఓ చెమ్చా నిమ్మ రసం కలిపి మోచేతుల్లో నల్లగావున్న ప్రాంతంలో పట్టించి ఓ పావుగంట తర్వాత గోరు వెచ్చటి నీటితో కడిగేయాలి. ఆ తర్వాత  వేడినీటి టవల్ ని చుట్టి ఓ పది నిముషాలు ఉంచితే అరచేతి వెనక, మోచేతి వెనక వుండే నలుపు క్రమంగా తగ్గిపోతుంది.

3.  మరికొన్ని ....

*  ఓ కప్పు పెరుగులో చెమ్చా బాదాం పొడి కలిపి చేతులకి పట్టించి.. బాగా ఆరాక గోరువెచ్చటి నీటితో కడిగేయాలి.

*  ఓ చెమ్చా కొబ్బరినూనె, అరచెంచా నిమ్మరసం కలిపి నల్లగా వున్న ప్రాంతంలో పట్టించి, ఆతర్వాత  గోరువెచ్చటి నీటిలో తడిపిన బట్ట చుట్టి, పదినిమిషాల తర్వాత కడగాలి.

*  మోచేతి వెనక భాగానికి ప్రతిరోజు బాదం నూనె రాసినా మంచి ఫలితం వుంటుంది.

* అరచేతి వెనుక, మోచేతి భాగాలు తొందరగా డ్రై అయిపోతాయి కాబట్టి వాటికి రోజు తగినంత తేమ అందేలా చూసుకోవాలి.

క్యారట్ తో కాంతివంతమైన చర్మం

 


క్యారట్ లోని పోషకాలు, యాంటీ ఆక్సిడెంట్స్ చర్మాన్ని ఆరోగ్యంగా సహజ మెరుపుతో ఉంచుతాయి. అందుకే క్యారట్ ని సౌందర్య పోషణలో భాగంగా తరుచూ వాడుతుంటే వయసుతో పాటు వచ్చే మార్పు ప్రభావం చర్మంపై పడకుండా ఉంటుంది. క్యారట్ తో వివిధ రకాల ఫేస్ ప్యాక్స్......ఇవి

* క్యారట్ ని ఉడికించి మెత్తగా గ్రైండ్ చేయాలి. రెండు చెంచాల తేనె కలిపి ముఖానికి పట్టించి ఓ పదిహేను నిమిషాలు ఆరనివ్వాలి. తరువాత గోరు వెచ్చని నీటితో కడిగి... మెత్తటి బట్టతో పొడిగా తుడవాలి. ఈ ప్యాక్ వల్ల చర్మం కాంతివంతమవుతుంది.

* మెహం మీద  ముడతలుంటే క్యారట్ గుజ్జులో తేనెతో పాటు కాస్త బాదం నూనె కూడా కలిపి మాస్క్ వేసుకుంటే మంచి ఫలితముంటుంది.

* ఒక క్యారట్ ని మెత్తగా గ్రైండ్ చేసి దానికి మూడు చెంచాల పంచదార కలిపి ఆ మిశ్రమాన్ని ముఖం, మెడ, అరచేతి వెనుకభాగాలకి పట్టించి చిన్నగా రుద్దితే మృతకణాలు తొలిగి చర్మం ఆరోగ్యంగా ఉంటుంది.

* క్యారట్ చెక్కుతీసి ఓ గాజుసీసాలో పెట్టి... ఆక్యారట్ మునిగే వరకు కొబ్బరి నూనె వేయాలి. రెండు రోజుల పాటు ఎండలో పెట్టి ఆతర్యాత నూనెని వడకట్టి రోజూ ముఖానికి రాసుకుంటే చర్మం తేమను సంతరించుకుంటుంది.

మెడ బ్యూటీకి మెథడాలజీ

 

మెడ బ్యూటీకి మెథడాలజీ



ముఖం తెల్లగా వున్నా, మెడ కొంచెం రంగు తక్కువగా కనిపిస్తుంది. ఒబెసిటీ, హార్మోన్లలో మార్పులు దీనికి కారణం అంటున్నారు నిపుణులు.  అయితే చిన్న చిన్న చిట్కాలతో ఆ నలుపును కొంతవరకు తగ్గించుకోవచ్చు.

1. రోజూ కాసేపు గోరువెచ్చని నీటిలో బట్టని ముంచి నీటిని పిండేశాక దాన్ని మెడపై వేసుకోవాలి. ఇలా చేస్తే మెడ దగ్గరి చర్మానికి ఆవిరి అంది నలుపు తగ్గుతుంది.

2. కొబ్బరి నూనె మెడ దగ్గరి నలుపుని పోగొట్టడంలో సమర్థంగా పనిచేస్తుంది. ప్రతిరోజూ కొంచెం నూనెని మెడ చుట్టూ నెమ్మదిగా రాస్తూ వుంటే నలుపుదనం క్రమంగా తగ్గుతుంది.

3. మెంతి ఆకుల్ని మెత్తగా గ్రైండ్ చేసి అందులో కొంచెం శనగపిండి కలిపి మెడకి పట్టించాలి. ఆరాక కడిగి, గోరువెచ్చని టవల్‌ని కాసేపు మెడమీద వుంచాలి. ఇలా వారానికి ఒకసారి చేస్తే మెడ దగ్గరి చర్మం మృదువుగా మారుతుంది.

4. టమాటా, బీన్స్‌ని కలిపి గ్రైండ్ చేసి ఆ మిశ్రమాన్ని మెడకి రాసుకున్నా మంచి ఫలితం వుంటుంది.

5. వారానికి ఒకసారి అరటిపండుని మెత్తటి గుజ్జుగా చేసి అందులో అందుబాటులో వున్న ఏదైనా మరో పండు గుజ్జుని కలిపి మెడకి పట్టించి ఆరాక నలుగు పిండితో రుద్దుకుని గోరు వెచ్చని నీటితో కడిగేసుకుంటే చాలు... మెడ దగ్గరి చర్మం మృదువుగా మారుతుంది.

వీటితోపాటు ప్రతీరోజూ బయటి నుంచి రాగానే కొంచెం పచ్చిపాలతో మెడని రుద్దుకుంటే ఎప్పటికప్పుడు మురికి వదిలి మెడ తాజాగా వుంటుంది.

Love and Protect Your Skin

 

 

1.What is Outer Nutrition?

Science has discovered that many of the same nutrients and botanicals that support good health when taken internally can also enhance appearance and well-being when used externally. Giving your skin vital nutrients, adequate hydration, rest and relaxation are all essential factors for a healthy skin. However personalising your skincare routine with healthy nutrients helps your skin look its best, because often if your skin looks good, you feel good!

‘Outer Nutrition’ is Nutrition for Skin and not make-up, chemical bleaches or peels.

2.What is the important role of Skin?


*
The skin is the largest organ of your body and it’s made up of two main layers; the epidermis and the dermis. The epidermis is the outer layer of the skin and it’s tough, waterproof and protective. The dermis, or inner layer, is thicker than the epidermis and gives the skin strength and elasticity.

*
One of the most important roles of the skin is as a protective barrier against exposure to the elements and environmental pollutants. It’s important that you nourish and support your skin in this protective role, whether you are male or female.

3.Why do I need basic Skin care?

*
The skin constantly protects the human body from infections and other sickness. Yet at the same time, the skin is the most vulnerable organ in the body because it is exposed to pollution like cigarette smoke, specifically to the carbon monoxide emitted by vehicles and also such as nitrogen dioxide and sulfur. Outdoor pollutants are detrimental because they increase the number of free radicals in our environment. Free radicals can damage cells over time by encouraging oxidation.

* The skin may also be exposed to the sun's ultraviolet rays. According to the National Institute on Aging, "The main cause of skin cancer is the sun."

* Indoor pollutants can also cause dry skin and irritation. Overall pollution can be responsible for skin dryness, dullness, clogged pores, some allergic reactions, skin irritations, inflammation and premature aging.

*
Your skin is one of the most vital structures of the human body and it acts as shield between the internal and external and you replace and regenerate it every day. Taking care of it daily helps you protect the skin's delicate moisture balance to keep you healthy-looking.

4.What is part of basic Skin care?

* The basic of good skin care are Cleansing, Toning and Moisturizing, in that order twice a day morning and night.

* Never leave your skin dry after cleansing your face. A gentle Toner should be used to tone up the skin followed by a Moisturizer as per your skin type to moisturize and protect your skin - this would complete a daily cleaning routine.

* Remember your skin need to breathe and look as natural; as possible. So reduce the amount of makeup and let your skin breathe daily.

* Use skincare products that are rich in antioxidant vitamins and are not loaded with chemicals that can be harsh on your skin. Always prefer sulphate free, paraben free and non alcohol based products.

* More and more cosmetics and skin care products in current days include the words essential, natural, bio, botanical, and herbal in their product name or description connoting that the product is made from herbs or plants. Often times, however, the label is looked at and things like Octisalate, Octinoxate, Lyphazomes, Oxybenzone, are seen and it's hard to believe it is a natural product. Some of them are partial where as some are completely made from botanical extracts. So be conscious to check the labels and understand product well before you apply it.

5.Is it harmful to use chemical bleaches?

*
Using chemical bleaches for whitening and bleaching skin can cause harm to your skin in the long run. Therefore, it is essential to use natural remedies for having clean and flawless skin.

* Although skin bleaching or whitening could be a good option for getting rid of dark spots or skin discolouration, the process is not free from side effects. Some of the products are rather very harmful and cause skin cancer too. Therefore, it is very important you find out the side effects of skin bleaching before you opt for the whitening of your skin.

మన అందంలో ‘పాలు’ పంచుకుంటాయి


మన అందంలో ‘పాలు’ పంచుకుంటాయి

 

మీకో విషయం తెలుసా! పాలు మన ఆరోగ్యానికి ఎంత మంచివో మన చర్మానికి కూడా అంతే మంచివి. పాలలో ఉండే ఏ, డీ, బీ6, బీ12, బియోటిన్, కాల్షియంలు చర్మానికే కాదు జుట్టు కూడా చాలా మంచివి. పాలు మన చర్మ సౌందర్యానికి చాలా రకాలుగా ఉపయోగించుకోవచ్చు. రోజూ ముఖానికి పాలు రాసుకోవడం వల్ల ముఖం మీద ఉండే మురికితోపాటు మృత కణాలు పోయి చర్మం చాలా ప్రకాశవంతంగా తయారవుతుంది. పాలతో చేసే కొన్ని ఫేస్ ప్యాక్ లు ఇప్పుడు చూద్దాం....

* రెండు స్పూన్ల పచ్చిపాలు తీసుకొని దానిలో దూదిని ముంచి ముఖం, మెడపై చిన్నగా రబ్ చేయాలి. ఇలా చేయడం వల్ల ముఖంపై ఉన్న దుమ్ము దూది ద్వారా బయటకు వచ్చేస్తుంది. తరువాత గోరువెచ్చని నీటితో కడిగేసుకుంటే చాలు.

* ఒక కప్పు పాలు తీసుకోని దానిలో ఓట్స్ వేసి బాగా కలపాలి. ఆ మిశ్రమాన్ని ముఖానికి పట్టించి ఓ పదినిమిషాల తరువాత గోరువెచ్చని నీటితో కడిగేసుకోవాలి. ఇలా చేయడం వల్ల చర్మం సాఫ్ట్గ్ గా తయారవుతుంది.

* కొద్దిగా పాలు తీసుకొని దానిలో ఒక స్పూన్ తేనె, ఒక స్పూన్ లెమన్ జ్యూస్ కలిపి ముఖానికి రాసుకోవాలి. ఓ 15 నిమిషాల తరువాత గోరువెచ్చని నీటితో కడిగేయాలి. ఈ ప్యాక్ వల్ల మీ ముఖం మీద మచ్చలు పోవడమే కాదు, చాలా సాఫ్ట్ గా కూడా అవుతుంది.

* కొద్దిగా పచ్చిపాలు తీసుకొని దానిలో కోడిగుడ్డు తెల్ల సొన వేసి కలపాలి. ఆ మిశ్రమాన్ని ముఖానికి రాసుకోని ఓ 40 నిమిషాలు ఉంచుకోని తరువాత గోరువెచ్చని నీటితో కడిగేయాలి.
 
* పాలు తీసుకొని దానిలో అరటిపండును గుజ్జుగా కలిపి ముఖానికి రాసుకోవాలి. ఓ 30 నిమిషాల తరువాత గోరువెచ్చని నీటితో కడిగేయాలి. దీనివల్ల ముఖం ఫ్రెష్ గా సాఫ్ట్ గా తయారవుతుంది.

The Overnight Care


The Overnight Care!

 Hi girls! Here’s some skin and hair care advice we are always hungry for. You never forget to apply sunscreen before stepping out into the sun, but do you know? Your skin needs attention at bed time too! Read on to find out what you must do before you say good night to your skin.

Get rid of all the make up that lies on your face. Remove the mask you have been hiding behind all day. For your skin to look fresh in the morning, it needs to be itself at night. Leave it in its original state and let it regain its freshness throughout the night. This will help you smile at a fresh face in the mirror next morning. Allow yours pores to open up and get some fresh air.  Try it to see the fresh you!

My next advice may sound unusual to you but it is important. Elevate your head with an extra pillow. What can a pillow do to your skin? The elevation it provides can prevent accumulation of fluids under your eyes, causing them to look puffy. If you don’t want that, add another pillow and sleep well. You can skip my advice but don’t ignore the experts. They know best.

A purifying mask on your acne spots can work wonders over night. Remember to choose the one that suits your skin time. Consult your dermatologist for the same. The longer your skin is in contact with the purifying mask, the prettier you become. So follow this trick to meet a beautiful you every morning.

If plump skin is what you want, a combination of a moisturizer with a humidifier in your room can give you the desired results. This will hydrate your skin while making it resistant to irritants. So a simple task can give you twin benefits. Don’t miss out on them. If you can successfully follow this, you can skip moisturizer during the day as your skin would have got all the moisture it needs, while you slept.

For beautiful hands and fingers, pamper them with heavy hand creams at night. Don’t step back from doing this only because it is greasy. The hands that are greasy at night, will blossom with beauty next morning. Try the trick and see the magic for yourself.

Did you know that your hair has a strong connection with a silk pillow? So gift yourself a silk pillow if you want healthy hair. Cotton pillows can ruin your hair cuticles with their rough texture. If you are not comfortable sleeping on a silk pillow, I have an alternative just for you. Make sure you change your pillowcase frequently. It is advisable to change it at an interval of one to two days.

The dirt or oil on your hair can irritate your skin, leading to other skin problems. To prevent this make sure your hair does not come in contact with your skin while you sleep. You could braid it or tie it up in a bun to prevent this from happening. The simplest tip to retain beautiful skin is good sleep. Give yourself at least eight hours of sleep for bright and radiant skin.

Apart from this an exfoliator is a must for healthy skin. Applying this at night will contribute to the self repair your skin is working on overnight. An eye cream is also a must in your list as it takes care of your beautiful eyes as you sleep. These tips will help you meet a beautiful you every morning. Stay pretty!

జుట్టు... ఇలా చేస్తే పట్టు

 

జుట్టు... ఇలా చేస్తే పట్టు


వేసవికాలం వచ్చేసింది. వేసవిలో ఎండ తీవ్రత చర్మం మీద ఎంత ఉంటుందో జుట్టు వీుద కూడా దాని ప్రభావం అంతే ఉంటుంది. ముఖ్యంగా వేసవిలో జుట్టుకు చెమట పట్టి చాలా చిరాకుగా ఉంటుంది. సూర్యరశ్మిలోని అల్ట్రావైలెట్ కిరణాలు మన జట్టుని పొడిబారిపోయేటట్లు, చిట్లిపోయేటట్లు చేస్తాయి. అలా కాకుండా ఉండాలంటే మనం కొన్ని జాగ్రత్తలు పాటించాలి. దీనివల్ల మన కురులు పట్టుకుచ్చులా ఉంటాయి.

* వేసవికాలంలో సాధ్యమైనంత వరకూ ఎక్కువ రసాయనాలు ఉన్న షాంపూలు వాడకపోవడమే మంచిది. షీకాకాయ లాంటి వాటితో చేయడం మంచిది.

* వేసవిలో చెమట నుండి జుట్టును రక్షించుకునేందుకు రెండురోజులకోసారి షాంపూ చేసుకోవడం మంచిది. షాంపు చేసిన తరువాత కండీషనర్ రాసుకుంటే జుట్టు తేమగా ఉండి పొడిబారకుండా ఉంటుంది.

* వేసవిలో చెమట కారణంగా చుండ్రు సమస్య ఎక్కువవుతోంది. ఇలా జరగకుండా ఉండాలంటే కొబ్బరి నూనెను కొంచం వేడి చేసి దానిని తలకు పట్టించి మర్ధనా చేసి ఒక టవల్ తో గట్టిగా చుట్టాలి. ఆ తరువాత తలస్నానం చేయాలి. ఇలా చేయడం వల్ల జుట్టుకు చుండ్రు సమస్య తగ్గుతుంది.

* ఎండలో బయటకి వెళ్లేముందు జుట్టుకు కొంచం సన్ స్ర్కీన్ లోషన్ రాసుకుంటే ఎండబారినుండి జుట్టును కాపాడుకోవచ్చు. అయితే ఇలా సన్ స్ర్కీన్ లోషన్ రాసుకున్నప్పుడు ఇంటికి రాగానే లేదా పడుకోబోయే ముంది తలస్నానం చేసుకుంటే మంచిది.

* కొబ్బరినీళ్లు, పళ్లరసాలు ఎక్కువగా తాగడం వల్ల కురులు పొడిబారకుండా ఉంటాయి.

జుట్టు బాగా రాలిపోతోందా? ఈ నాలుగు వాడితే సెట్!

జుట్టు బాగా రాలిపోతోందా...ఈ నాలుగు వాడితే సెట్!

నేటి కాలంలో చాలామంది  జీవనశైలి దారుణంగా తయారైంది.  బయటి ఆహారం,  పానీయాల కారణంగా  శరీరంలో ప్రతి భాగం ఊహించని ప్రతికూలతలు ఎదుర్కొంటుంది. ఇలా ప్రతికూలతలు కలిగే వాటిలో జుట్టు మరీ ముఖ్యమైంది. జుట్టు తెల్లబడటం, రంగు మారటం, చిన్నవయసులోనే బట్టతల, జుట్టు సామర్థ్యం తగ్గడం, పలుచగా మారడం ఇలా చాలా విధాలుగా జుట్టు దెబ్బతింటుంది.  ఇక జుట్టు రాలడం, తలలో చుండ్రు వంటి సమస్యల గురించి చెప్పక్కర్లేదు.  జుట్టు ఎక్కువగా రాలడం వల్ల బట్టతల సమస్య ఎక్కువగా కనిపిస్తుంది. ఇది ఆడవారిలో కూడా కనిపించడం చాలా విచారించాల్సిన విషయం.  దీని కోసం ప్రజలు అనేక రకాల హెయిర్ ట్రీట్మెంట్ లు తీసుకుంటారు.  కానీ ఎన్ని ట్రీట్మెంట్లు తీసుకున్నా సరైన ప్రభావం కనిపించడం లేదు. అయితే  శరీరం అంతర్గతంగా పోషకాలను పొందినప్పుడు మాత్రమే జుట్టు బలంగా ఉంటుంది.

 శరీరానికి ఏయే పదార్థాలు లభిస్తే జుట్టు బలంగా ఉంటుంది. వేటిని క్రమం తప్పకుండా తీసుకోవాలి మొదలైన విషయాలు తెలుసుకుంటే వాటిని ఫాలో అవ్వడం వల్ల ఆరోగ్యవంతమైన, ధృడమైన జుట్టును పొందవచ్చు. అవేంటంటే..

క్యారెట్

విటమిన్ ఎ క్యారెట్‌లో పుష్కలంగా ఉంటుంది. క్యారెట్లను బాగా  ఉపయోగించడం వల్ల జుట్టుకు బలం చేకూరుతుంది. ఇది తలలో సెబమ్ ఉత్పత్తిని పెంచుతుంది. దీని వల్ల జుట్టు హైడ్రేటెడ్ గా,  ఆరోగ్యంగా మారుతుంది. క్యారెట్ తినడం వల్ల రక్త ప్రసరణ కూడా పెరుగుతుంది.

గుడ్లు

గుడ్డులో ఉండే ప్రొటీన్లు జుట్టును లోపలి నుండి దృఢంగా మార్చుతాయి. గుడ్లలో కూడా బయోటిన్ ఉంటుంది, ఇది జుట్టుకు చాలా ముఖ్యమైనది. కాబట్టి మీ ఆహారంలో గుడ్లను చేర్చుకోవడానికి ప్రయత్నించండి.

సిట్రస్ పండ్లు

సిట్రస్ పండ్లలో విటమిన్ సి ఉంటుంది. సిట్రస్ పండ్లను తీసుకోవడం వల్ల జుట్టు వేగంగా పెరుగుతుంది. మీ జుట్టు రాలుతున్నట్లయితే, విటమిన్ సి అధికంగా ఉండే సిట్రస్ పండ్లను క్రమం తప్పకుండా తినడం వల్ల మంచి ఫలితం  ఉంటుంది.

అవకాడో

అవకాడోలో పొటాషియం, బి విటమిన్లు,  ఫోలిక్ యాసిడ్ కూడా ఉంటాయి. ఇవి జుట్టు పెరుగుదలను మెరుగుపరుస్తాయి. అంతేకాదు  జుట్టును మందంగా చేస్తాయి.కాబట్టి ఆహారంలో అవోకాడోను చేర్చడానికి ప్రయత్నించండి.

లిప్.. లిప్.. హుర్రే

లిప్.. లిప్.. హుర్రే

మనకి లిప్ స్టిక్ వేసుకోవడమంటే చాలా ఇష్టం.లిప్ స్టిక్ వేసుకోవడం వల్ల మన ముఖానికి ప్రత్యేకమైన ఆకర్షణ వస్తుంది. వేసుకోవడమైతే వేసుకుంటాం కానీ, ఎలా వేసుకోవాలి, దానికి ఎలాంటి జాగ్రత్తలు తీసుకోవాలి అనే విషయం పై అసలు దృష్టి పెట్టం. మరి మన అదరాలు అదరహో అనాలంటే ఎలాంటి చిట్కాలు వాడాలో చూద్దామా...

* ముందుగా మన స్కిన్ టోన్ బట్టి మనకు ఎలాంటి లిప్ స్టిక్ సూటవుతోందో చూసుకోవాలి. పేల్ స్కిన్ వాళ్లయితే కొంచెం లైట్ షేడ్, గ్లాసీ లిప్ స్టిక్ ఉపయోగించడం మంచిది. అదే డార్క్ స్కిన్ అయితే నేచురల్ గా ఉండేవి (గోల్డ్, బ్రౌన్, రెడ్) వాడటం మంచిది.

* లిప్ స్టిక్ వేసుకోవడం చాలా తేలికైన పని. కానీ చాలా మంది ఆడవాళ్ల పెదవులు లిప్ స్టిక్ వేసుకున్నప్పటికీ ఎండిపోయినట్టుగా కనిపిస్తాయి. దీనిని నివారించాలంటే ముందుగా పెదవుల పై ఉన్న డెడ్ స్కిన్ పోగొట్టాలి. వారానికి రెండుసార్లు తేనె, పంచదార కలిపిన మిశ్రమాన్ని పెదవులకి రాసి రబ్ చేస్తే సాఫ్ట్ గా తయారవుతాయి.

* పెదవులు పొడిబారకుండా వుండటానికి లిప్ బామ్ రాసుకోవాలి. ఇలా రాసిన పదినిమిషాల తరువాత ఒక టిష్యూతో లిప్ బామ్ తుడిచేయాలి

* లిప్ లైనర్ తో ఇప్పుడు పెదవులను ఫిల్ చేసుకోవాలి. లిప్ స్టిక్ ట్యూబ్ నుండి డైరెక్ట్ గా కాకుండా బ్రష్ తో వేసుకోవాలి. పెదవుల పక్కన ఎదైనా కొంచెం రంగు అంటుకుంటే కన్సీలర్ బాగా ఉపయోగపడుతుంది. పెదవుల అంచులకి అంటుకున్న రంగును ఇది సులభంగా పొగొడుతుంది.

* చివరిగా పెదవులకి షైనింగ్ కావాలనుకుంటే లిప్ గ్లాస్ రాసుకుంటే సరిపోతుంది.

The Perfect Look For Work

 

 

The Perfect Look For Work!

 



It is not only important for a modern woman to make a career, but she also needs to present herself well at work. This has made it a compulsion for a working lady to make time to groom herself before going to work. However, it is very difficult to find time for this, in the rush of the morning hours. So, what can be done, when looking unprofessional is not an option?

* I’ll start with the simplest option first. It is best if you can go to work with the natural look. It will make you look apt for the place while saving a lot of your time. Your office is definitely not a place for you to go with smoky eyes and scarlet lips.

* I’ll start with the simplest option first. It is best if you can go to work with the natural look. It will make you look apt for the place while saving a lot of your time. Your office is definitely not a place for you to go with smoky eyes and scarlet lips.

* Healthy skin is another way of looking professional at work. If you are not gifted with naturally flawless skin, do not be disappointed! A gentle exfoliator and a moisturizer is what you need. If flawless skin has never been an issue, all you need is a mild concealer to give your skin an even tone.

* You must know that eye make up is different during the day and night. A natural eye shadow on your lids is a good idea, before going to the office. A little bit of eyeliner is harmless. Use brown color if you have a fair complexion and black color if you are on the darker side.

* Long hours of work can pull out the freshness from your face and make you look tired. If you want to hide this from the world, apply a few layers of mascara on your eyelashes. This will make your eyes look wide open even if you are feeling drowsy. For the next step in the make up for work, you need to decide if its your eyes or lips that you want to highlight.

* If its your eyes that you want to highlight, go for a natural lip color or a transparent gloss. Light pink can also serve the purpose here. If you are wondering how to highlight your lips, let me tell you that its very simple. Dark colors can do the job for you. Wear a berry color if you like. Its not completely forbidden to wear red lipstick to work, if you want to make that your style statement.

* Don’t forget to put on a little bit of a blush before you step out. That rosy glow will be perfect even for a busy day at office. Carry it along because you might need a touch up at any time of the day. Finally, remember to stick to your daily make up routine.

* Frequent changes can effect your skin and take away a lot of your time. Stay beautiful and have a nice day at work!

Stay Young Forever

Stay Young Forever!

* Women around the world may think that aging is a natural process and nothing can be done about it. Whenever this thought crosses your mind, you may feel hopeless. I’m here to cheer you up with some simple anti aging tips that will never let you grow old.

* Forget the beauty parlor and expensive anti aging creams. All you need to do is to hide from the sun. The hot monster is responsible for the wrinkles that make you look old. Since staying indoors is not always possible, it is advisable to apply sunscreen with a good spf, at least 20 to 30 minutes before stepping out.

* Did you ever think that drinking water can keep you young? Yes its true! Drinking lots of water can work like magic on your aging process. Wondering what water can do? It will give your cells the much needed elasticity to keep it firm. The more water you give these cells the longer you can retain the elasticity of your skin. It also helps your skin get rid of the toxins that mind be stored in.

* Now if you want to fight against time, its going to be tough. Are you ready for it? You will have to break a bad habit to stay young. Quit smoking girl! This will keep you young for a very long time. Smoking prevents blood supply to your skin, making you look older than you are. I’m sure you don’t want that. Besides, by saying no to smoking, you will be doing a favor to your poor lungs too. Think about it!

* Sleep well. Beauty sleep is not a myth. It actually works wonders in retaining your beautiful, younger looking skin. To help your skin remain thick you need your body to produce a lot of the human growth hormone and this it can do only if you give it enough rest. So sleep well to stop aging. Simple?

* Now that you know that sleep is important to stay beautiful, you must also know that sleep right is crucial. Sleeping on your side or your tummy can create unnecessary folds on your skin. So try to sleep on your back to work on your beauty even at night.

* Another obvious and easy trick to stay young is to eat right. Healthy eating habits will keep your skin young for a longer time than otherwise. Vitamins in the form of fruits and vegetables is a must for your skin. Most of the fruits have a good amount of anti oxidants, so don’t ignore them!

* A major threat to your young and flawless skin is that unwanted stress you put yourself through. Try to avoid that and leave the world guessing your age.
Anti aging creams? Push them aside. All you need is a moisturizer. Moist skin looks better so don’t let it dry. Cover it under a nice moisturizer. Hide behind it all day and your age will be a few years less.

* You may have heard that washing your face is good. Of course it is. But don’t you know that too much is too bad? Washing your face too many times deprives it of the barrier oils that prevent the dirt from directly getting in touch with your skin. So remember not to torture your skin with that soap too often. Staying young is so easy, isn’t it? You can always consult your dermatologist if you think you need more than this to stay young.

వలయాల విలయానికి విరుగుడు

పెరిగిపోతున్న ఒత్తిడి, తగ్గుతున్న నిద్రాసమయం ఫలితంగా కళ్ళ కింద నల్లటి వలయాలు. టీనేజ్ అమ్మాయిల నుంచి అన్ని వయసుల వారిని ఇబ్బంది పెట్టే ఈ నల్లటి వలయాలని కనిపించకుండా చేయడానికి చిన్న చిన్న జాగ్రత్తలు తీసుకుంటే చాలు.

1. మేకప్ వేసుకోవడానికి ముందు ఒక మంచి మాయిశ్చరైజర్ ని కళ్ళ కింద రాయండి. దాని వల్ల ఆ భాగంలో చర్మం తాజాదనాన్ని సంతరించుకుంటుంది.

2. సాధారణంగా మేకప్ వేసుకునే ముందు పౌండేషన్ అప్లై చేస్తారు. నల్లటి వలయాలు ఉన్నవాళ్లు ఫౌండేషన్ కంటే ముందు కంటి కింద ప్రైమర్ అప్లై చేస్తే చాలు. అది నలుపుదనం కనిపించకుండా చేస్తుంది.

3. ఇక నల్లటి వలయాలు ఎక్కువగా ఉన్నప్పుడు చాలా తక్కువ మేకప్ వేసుకోవాలి. ఎందుకంటే ఎంత ఎక్కువ మేకప్ వేసుకుంటే, కాసేపటికి అంత ఎక్కువగా ఆ నల్లటి వలయాలు బయటపడతాయి.

4. కన్సీలర్ వాడే అలవాటు ఉన్నవారు మరీ ముదురు రంగులో ఉన్న దానిని కాకుండా స్కిన్ టోన్ కు సరిపడే రంగుకి దగ్గరగా ఉండే బూడిద రంగులోది వాడటం మంచిది. ముదురు రంగు మరింతగా నల్లటి వలయాలు కనిపించేలా చేస్తుంది. ఇంకా చెప్పాలంటే మీరు వాడే ఫౌండేషన్ కంటే ఓ రెండు షేడ్లు లైట్ గా ఉండాలి మీ కన్సీలర్. అలాగే కళ్ళ కింద మేకప్ ప్యాచులాగా కనిపించ కూడదంటే క్రీమ్ లో ఉండే దానిని వాడండి. దానిని చాలా నెమ్మదిగా కళ్ళకింద వలయాలపై అద్దండి.

5. అలాగే మేకప్ తీసాకా చల్లటి నీటిలో ముంచిన మేత్తని వస్త్రాన్ని ఓ పదినిమిషాలు కళ్ళమీద పెట్టుకుంటే మంచిది.

Happy Feet, Happy You

Happy Feet, Happy You!

Pretty feet are something that every girl wants. You know what? Now its very easy to get! You don’t have to step out of your house for that. All you need to do is follow a few simple steps to make your feet look pretty. So today lets devote some time to feet care.

The first thing you need to do is use natural ingredients when you soak your feet. Soak your feet in warm water whenever you do. Now you must be thinking whats new in that? Soaking your feet in warm water, is not enough. If you want pretty feet, you need to do a little more than that. A few drops of lime juice may be? Yes, that will definitely give your feet the pampering they always needed. It is best if you could add a few drops of shower gel with a natural base to this mixture. 10 -15 minutes in this mixture will transform your feet forever.


If the difference in the color of your feet and other parts of your body is bothering you, let me tell you that is a problem with a simple solution. A mixture of milk, lime juice and salt can solve your problem. Make a fine paste of this mixture and massage your feet for 15-20 minutes before washing it off with warm water. Let a few weeks pass this way and you will see the difference in the skin tone.

It always happens that our feet get the least attention when it comes to cleanliness of our body. What most of us don’t know is the fact that, mere washing with water and soap will not entirely remove the dirt that our feet collect everyday. For thorough cleaning you need to scrub your feet occasionally. When you scrub, don’t leave out any part of your feet. Not even the soles or the area between your toes. These are the areas that get neglected, though these are the places where there is a lot of dirt accumulation happening. One more thing you might have been neglecting is the dirt in your toe nails. This also needs to be taken care of.


You may not have realized but your feet need moisturization too! So apply a good body lotion to your feet before you go to bed and wash your feet thoroughly next morning. Since this is the era of specialization you might like to use a cream specially meant for feet. So pamper your feet with some of that every night. If you prefer to go the natural way, prepare a mixture of rose water and glycerin. Glycerin will give you amazing texture while rose water will take care of any skin irritation your feet may have.

An option even better than this for smooth and soft feet is the use of honey. Soak your feet in warm water containing a scoop of honey. That’s the only effort needed from your end for soft and skin. For those who don’t want to use honey, olive oil is an option. Massage your feet with olive oil and then put on a pair of comfortable socks for an hour. Later wash your feet and see the difference for yourself. There’s one more thing you will need when you use this procedure for soft and smooth feet. Its patience! You will have to do it twice a month to see the results you want. Trust me... Its worth the wait.

Clean your face regularly not just with water but cleansing cream which will remove all the impurities of the skin .Tone your skin with a tonner that will help your skin pores to hydrate. Lastly, moisturize your face depending on what type of skin you have-oily, dry, normal.

Do not forget to use a sun block one of the essentials for protecting your skin from the harmful uv rays from the sun, Those who have very oily skin do not hesitate to invest in a good primer as a base, it helps to tone down the oil from the skin Inglot and Mac has very good primers.


Choose your foundation wisely; try one colour close to your skin tone on one side of your face and try another on the other side, go out in sun and check which looks the best as natural light is the best light to judge your make up. I would recommend my personal favourite Mac match master or loreal and Revlon are also good brands to invest in.

Mineralising ones are very good for summers it soaks in and doesn’t give a cakey look. Look for a foundation which is like all in one concealer, compact and foundation. As for the blush go in for a cooler shades, preferably powder based as creamy ones might make your face look oily.

If  you are a person  who likes to be subtle then you can go for some warm colours of baby pink beige golden  for eyes  and little darker on the lips. If you are a person who likes to experiment with make up you can play around with pinks, blues or even black but make sure you highlight any one part of your face either your eyes or your lips. BLUE is the colour for summers, U can experiment with that colour blending it with some beige in the inner corner and blue on the outer corner, this look can be carried off for day as well as night make up. U can even try blue smoky look which goes well for partying. Play off with different shades of pinks ranging from rani pink to fusia pink for your lips.

Humidity vs Hair

Currently we are in a weather which is a combo of heat and humid. As we all know this is not a great combination but have no option but taking more care of our beauty and health.

What Can a Lemon Do

What Can a Lemon Do?

When you think of a lemon, the ideas of its usage may be limited in your mind. I’m going to change that forever. As you read further, you will realize how a lemon can be a woman’s best friend. So without wasting any more time, lets get started!

If your skin needs a moisturizer, you needn’t go up to the store and spend your money on it. The thing you need, is waiting for you in your kitchen.

A lemon can serve as a natural moisturizer. A mixture of lemon juice and coconut water can give you the skin you will fall in love with. Let me tell you how they individually act to enhance your skin health. While the coconut water hydrates your skin, lemon juice works on its brightness.

If the dark skin at your elbows and knees has been bothering you, there is a very simple solution you missed out on. Simply rubbing half a lemon on the effected area will serve the purpose. This is because the lemon with its innate qualities, acts as a natural bleach.

Going through painful treatments for removing blackheads? You don’t need to do that anymore! All you need, is a good squeeze of a sliced lemon on your face. Soon you will see the blackheads fading away, with least effort from your end. Don’t be so surprised! This is possible because of the antibacterial characteristic of the lemon. So forget the expensive parlor treatments forever!

If you ever decide that your face needs deep cleansing don’t rush to the parlor. Be your own expert and use the lemon. A few drops of lemon juice with tea tree oil in 6 ounces of distilled water can cleans your skin like never before.

If your teeth are yellow even after using the most expensive toothpaste, it is an indication that you should try something else. Before knocking on your dentist’s door, try something simple at home. Apply baking soda and lemon juice on your teeth with clean Q tip and get white teeth. So say goodbye to expensive teeth whitening treatment and smile bright.

Did you know that the best solution for oily skin is a nice rub of a sliced lime? Yes its true! Massage your face with a sliced lemon everyday and observe the difference for yourself.

Do you like highlights to your hair? But what about the harmful chemicals that can spoil your hair? Don’t worry! I have a natural and a harmless solution to that problem of yours. Apply lemon juice on your hair before you step out in the sun. You will see how magically your hair gets the color of your choice. Learn to think beyond lemonade when you think of a lemon.

It is not meant to create a layer on your face, but to make your skin tone even. So, apply it only where necessary, like on your forehead, cheeks and the tip of your nose. Not all over your face! This way the world can see the prettier you.

ఎవరి జుత్తయిన వత్తుగా నిగనిగలాడుతూ ఉంటే మనసు పారేసుకోని  ఆడవాళ్లు ఉండరనటంలో ఆశ్చర్యం లేదు. అలాంటి శిరోజాలు పొడిబారి జీవం లేకుండా ఉంటే బ్యూటి పార్లర్ కి వెళ్ళాల్సిన అవసరం లేకుండా ఇంట్లోనే హెయిర్ పాక్స్ చేసుకోవటం ఎంతో సులభం. కొంతమంది జుట్టు పొడిబారిపోయి ఉంటే మరికొందరి జిడ్డుగా ఉంటుంది కదా?అలాంటి వారు ఇంట్లో దొరికే వాటితోనే మళ్లీ అందమైన జుట్టుని తమ సొంతం చేసుకోవచ్చు.

సాధారణ జుట్టుకి సరిపోయే హెయిర్ ప్యాక్:

కేరట్ శరీరానికే కాదు జుట్టుకి కూడా మంచి బలాన్ని ఇస్తుంది. ఐదు కేరట్ దుంపలని మెత్తగా గ్రైండ్ చేసి పేస్టులాగా తయారుచేసుకోవాలి. ఆ పేస్టుని  జుట్టు మొదళ్ళ నుంచి చివరి దాకా బాగా పట్టించి నలభై నిమిషాల పాటు ఉంచుకొని తర్వాత చల్లని నీటితో కడగాలి.

జిడ్డుగా ఉండే జుత్తు కోసం(oily hair)
 

మూడు కమలాపండ్ల నుండి తీసిన తొక్కలను(పచ్చివి)  మెత్తగా గ్రైండ్ చేసుకొని, దానిలో ఒక స్పూన్ శెనగపిండి, 1/2 స్పూన్ కాఫీపొడి, ఒక కమలాపండు నుండి తీసిన జ్యూస్ ని అన్నిటిని కలిపి మెత్తటి ముద్దగా చేసుకోవాలి. ఈ మిశ్రమాన్ని జుత్తుకి పట్టించి 25 నిమిషాల పాటు ఉంచి, తరువాత చల్లని నీటితో జుట్టుని కడగాలి.  ఈ విధంగా 15 రోజులకొకసారి మనకి కావలసిన ప్యాక్ ని వేసుకొంటూ ఉంటే జుత్తు అందం రెట్టింపు అవుతుంది.

చుండ్రుని నివారించే హెయిర్ ప్యాక్

గుడ్డులో ఉండే తెల్ల సొనని అరకప్పు పెరుగులో కలిపి అందులో మూడు స్పూన్ల నిమ్మరసం వేసి బాగా కలపాలి. ఈ  మిశ్రమాన్ని తలకు రాసుకుని అరగంట తర్వాత నీతితో కడగాలి. పదిహేను రోజులకొకసారి ఈ ప్యాక్ వేసుకుంటే మంచి ఫలితం ఉంటుంది.

నిగనిగలాడే జుట్టు కోసం

నాలుగు స్ట్రాబెర్రీలను మెత్తగా పేస్టు చేసి అందులో రెండు స్పూన్ల పెరుగు కలపాలి. ఈ మిశ్రమాన్ని జుట్టుకి పట్టించి అరగంట ఆరాకా చల్లని నీటితో కడిగెయ్యాలి. ఇలా పదిరోజులకి ఒకసారి ఈ ప్యాక్ వెయ్యటం వల్ల జుట్టు నిగనిగలాడుతూ ఉంటుంది.

జుట్టుకి ఎప్పుడు హెన్నా పెట్టుకున్నా లేదా ఎలాంటి ప్యాక్ వేసుకున్నా అదే రోజు షాంపూ వాడటం కన్నా మరుసటి రోజు షాంపూ వాడటం మంచిది.జుట్టుకి సంబంధించిన అన్ని సమస్యలకి మనకి అందుబాటులోనే ఎన్నో నివారణలు కూడా ఉంటాయి,వాటిని కాస్త ఓపికతో తెలుసుకుని అప్లై చేసుకుంటే చాలు,ఒత్తుగా నిగనిగలాడే మన జుట్టుని చూసుకుని మనమే మురిసిపోవచ్చు.

Don't Foreget Sunscreen Along With Make Up!

 

Don't Foreget Sunscreen Along With Make Up!

 

 If wearing make up is important, it is equally important to guard your skin from the sun with a sunscreen. Everyone must know how to apply make up and sunscreen together. Before you do anything, it is very important that your face is thoroughly cleansed. Rose water is best suited for this purpose. Take tad bit of sunscreen and apply it all over your face and neck. Make sure you don’t take too much as the make up may slide away if your skin is too greasy. Use a tissue to get rid of excess sunscreen on your face.

 

 

Follow this with applying make up like you do regularly, for that perfect look. You must also know the right kind of make up to be applied when you decide step out of the house. If you know that its going to be a really long day, its best to go for mineral make up. Experts believe that mineral make up is best at concealing spots and blemishes.

 

During the day, whether your destination is your office or a coffee shop to meet a few friends, always remember to carry a tinted compact with you. A tinted compact with SPF 30-50, of beige or honey is perfect for any skin complexion. So, put up your best self everyday.

పరువాల పాదాల కోసం

పరువాల పాదాల కోసం


మనలో చాలా మంది అందం విషయంలో ముఖానికిచ్చే ప్రాధాన్యత పాదాలకి ఇవ్వరు. దాని పర్యవసానమే జీవం కోల్పోయిన పాదాలు వాటి వల్ల వచ్చే పగుళ్ళు. మొహం ఎంత అందంగా ఉన్నా పగుళ్లతో నిండిన పాదాలు చూసుకుంటుంటే మనకే బాధగా ఉంటుంది కదా. అందుకే వాటి మీద కూడా శ్రద్ధ  చూపించి పాడాలని కూడా మెరిసేలా చేద్దాం. సాదారణంగా రోజు కాళ్ళని బాగా కడిగి కొద్దిగా నూనే రాసుకుని పడుకునే వారి పాదాలు ఎంతో మృదువుగా కనిపిస్తాయి. ఇలానే ఇంకొన్ని చిట్కా వైధ్యాలతో బ్యూటీ పార్లర్ కి వెళ్ళాల్సిన పని లేకుండానే పాడాలని సంరక్షించుకుందాం.

*  రోజ్ వాటర్, గ్లిజరిన్ సమపాళ్ళలో తీసుకొని దానిలో దూది ముంచి దానిని పాదాలకు రాసి పదిహేను నిమిషాలు ఆరనిచ్చి కడిగెయ్యాలి. ఇలా రెండు రోజులకి ఒకసారి నెల రోజులు చేస్తే చాలు పాదాలు మృదువుగా మారిపోతాయి.

*  బొప్పాయి గుజ్జులో నాలుగు చుక్కల నిమ్మరసం కలిపి మర్దనా చేస్తే మడమలకున్న మురికి పోతుంది. క్రమంగా ఇలా చేస్తే మురికి తొలగడమే కాకుండా పగుళ్ళు కూడా దరి చేరవు.

*  గోరువెచ్చని  నీటిలో  తేనే వేసి ఆ నీటిలో పాదాలని 20-30 నిమిషాలు ఉంచి తర్వాత కడిగినా మంచి నిగారింపు వస్తుంది.

*  రాత్రి పడుకునే ముందు కాళ్ళు శుభ్రంగా కడిగి ఇంట్లో ఉండే వేసలైన్ ని పాదాలకి పట్టించి పడుకోవాలి. ఇలా చేస్తే రెండు మూడు రోజుల్లోనే మీ పాదాలలో వచ్చిన తేడాని మీరే గమనించవచ్చు.

*  పాదాలు మృదువుగా తయారవ్వాలంటే నాలుగు చెంచాల ఓట్ మీల్ పొడి, మూడు చెంచాల ఆలివ్ నూనె కలిపి మర్దనా చేసి, అరగంట తరువాత చల్లని నీటితో కడగాలి. దీంతో మృతకణాలు(డెడ్ సెల్స్) కూడా తొలగిపోతాయి.

*  అరటిపండుని  గుజ్జులా చేసి దానిని పాదాలకి పట్టించి పదిహేను నిమిషాలు ఆరనిచ్చి గోరువెచ్చని నీటితో కడిగినా మెరిసే పాదాలు మీవి అవుతాయి.

* నువ్వుల నూనెను గోరు వెచ్చగా వేడి చేసి రాత్రి పడుకునే ముందు రాసుకుంటే పాదాలు మృదువుగా తయారవుతాయి.

*  ఆలివ్ ఆయిల్ లో దూది ముంచి ఆ దూదిని గుండ్రటి ఆకారంలో తిప్పుతూ పాదాలని ఒక పది నిమిషాలు మసాజ్ చేసి సాక్స్ వేసుకుని ఒక అరగంట ఉంచి తర్వాత వేడి నీతితో కడిగినా  చాలు పదాలు మెరిసిపోతాయి.

చూసారా పాదాల సంరక్షణకి ఇంట్లోనే ఎన్ని జాగ్రత్తలు తీసుకోవచ్చో. మరి మొదలుపెడదామా ఏదో ఒక చిట్కాని.

Avoid too much use of Antibacterial products

 

Avoid too much use of Antibacterial products

 

 

Antibacterial hand-sanitizers have become so necessary in Hospitals, in every household everytime an infant is born, in every diaper bag, at every public toilet in the Western countries, and they are widely available in every departmental store...many find them easy to use for sanitation, and also in cities where water supply problems exist. But research says that Anti-bacterial Hand Sanitizers, and even a simple Antibacterial soap is not good to use often.

They tend to kill the disease fighting agents in human bodies..too much use of such soaps, hand wash liquids and sanitizers is not good. Most of these products contain Triclosan, an ingredient that is used to reduce or prevent bacterial contamination. Sametime, Triclosan has been found untested for its toxicity on human health. It has been lately found in the cord blood of newborns and urine cultures of many pregnant women....Triclosan is actually toxic to fish and other aquatic beings and is said to have endocrine-disrupting characteristics, which can affect growth and hormonal development.

American Chemical Society has created a new report on the findings of this chemical in newborns and pregnant women. It is used more in hand soaps, toothpastes and deodorants too. It has not yet been diagnosed as harmful to humans but generally such tests start with animal testing first, and it is proved that Triclosan is harmful to fish and other aquatic creatures, so why use it still ? Some studies on Bacteria has raised a doubt that Triclosan might be capable of making bacteria resistant to Antibiotics.

United States Department of Food And Drug Administration FDA has not proof yet on Triclosan's harmful effects but it is still researching on this aspect. Professionals in this field advise people who are concerned about health much to read the ingredients of any Toiletry item they purchase and proceed asper their discretion to use the product or not. Some famous Consumer product companies have even pledged to phase out this chemical from their products in the next few years. In the past, a study was conducted in Dental products and it was proved that Triclosan can prevent Gingivitis, a Gum disease.

However, anyday if Triclosan is proved harmful, we can't reverse the situation. Or, it can also be thought this way, probably, over-use of Triclosan might be harmful, like using it daily, and limited use of it may nit create any health problems...we never know. Any decision w.r.t health and changes should be ones responsibility always...presonal research and keeping an eye on health updates on the web and through Renowned Doctors is very important at every stage of life.

Are Fragrances harmful

Are Fragrances harmful ?

 

 

What a sweet scent !? We all love to stop at the Fragrance store in the mall. But these Fragrances are the famous allergens in the Western Countries because of their usage. Fragrance ingredients can cause itchy, scaly skin, painful skin allergies, create cold and sneezing, worsen asthma,. Not just artificial, synthetic fragrance ingredients, even high concentrations of natural oils from citrus peel, lavender, tea tree etc, can cause harmful side effects. 1 in 50 People suffer from immune system damage from synthetic fragrances and from endocrine system damage due to a high volume of phthalates- industrial chemicals used to make synthetic musks, these may damage the ecosystems, according to Greenpeace research.

It is best to choose natural fragrances. When you buy these, without synthetic ingredients, you also support farmers and people harvesting these plant-based ingredients. The environment is definitely not touched as the harmful industrial wastes are reduced.

 

 

Shopping Tips:

Read carefully the ingredient list on every bottle or container of personal products you are opting to buy...be it a hair oil, a body lotion, a baby cream or even a soap...every item carries FRAGRANCE.lipsticks and lipbalms also have this culprits hidden.

Not every company reveals all the contents, then look for words like 'Free from Sulphates, SLS, Phthalates, Parabens, Petrochemicals, Animalproducts, Propylene glycol, Synthetic or Artificial Fragrance....just the word fragrance in the contents list hides numerous harmful chemicals. Choose FRAGRANCE FREE products whenever possible.

USDA ORGANIC, NSF/ ANSI 305 'contains organic' and NPA Natural Certifications as these prohibit usage of synthetic scents.

Following websites of Natural Perfumers Guild such as NaturalPerfumers.com and of NGOs working for better health and environment such as EWG.org will guide one to avoid the toxic products and live a healthy and happy life.

ఎన్నాళ్ళయిన అనుష్క అందం తగ్గకపోగా రోజురోజుకి పెరుగుతోందేంటా అని ఆలోచలో పడ్డారా,ఎందుకండీ అంత శ్రమ మీకు? అనుష్క శర్మ నేరుగా చెప్పిన బ్యూటీ సీక్రెట్స్ వింటే మీకే ఔరా! అనిపిస్తుంది. వయసు 35 దాటుతున్నా ఇంకా అలా అందంగా ఉండటానికి కారణం ఎక్కువగా నీళ్ళు తాగటమే అని చెప్తోంది అనుష్క. నీళ్ళు ఎక్కువగా తాగటం వల్ల చర్మంలో నిగారింపు వస్తుందిట. చర్మం పోడిబారిపోకుండా కూడా ఉంటుందిట. తను రోజుకు కనీసం ఆరు లీటర్ల నీళ్ళు తాగుతుందిట.

 

*  తేనే నేచురల్ మెడిసిన్ లా పనిచేసి శరీరంలో మెరుపును తెప్పించగలదట. అందుకే తను  బ్రేక్ఫాస్ట్ గా  బ్రెడ్ అండ్ హనీ తీసుకుంటుందిట. చర్మాన్ని మెరిపించే శక్తి  తేనెకి ఉందట.

 

*  అలాగే సౌందర్య పోషణ కోసం ఎక్కువగా పార్లర్స్ కి వెళ్ళకుండా ఇంట్లోనే నిమ్మరసం, సెనగపిండి కలిపి దానిని కాస్త నలుపుగా ఉన్న మోకాళ్ళ దగ్గరా అలాగే మోచేతుల దగ్గరా అప్లై చేసుకుంటుందిట. వాటివల్ల  డార్క్ గా ఉన్న స్కిన్ టోన్ లైట్ గా మారుతుందిట.


* అనుష్క ఇప్పటికీ అంత  ఎనేర్జేటిక్ గా ఉండటానికి 100% కారణం క్రమం తప్పకుండా చేసే ఎక్సర్సైజే అని చెప్తోంది. ఎంత బిజీగా ఉన్న రోజులో 30 నిమిషాలు తప్పకుండా యోగా చేస్తుందిట. దీనివల్ల శరీరం నాజుకుగా ఉండటమే కాదు బాడీ షేప్ మారకుండా అలానే ఉంటుందిట.


* తను ఎక్కువగా ఆహారంలో భాగంగా కూరగాయలు, పళ్ళు, జ్యూస్ లు తీసుకుంటూ ఉంటుందిట. అంతేకాదు రాత్రిళ్ళు 8 లోపే డిన్నర్ పూర్తిచేస్తుందిట. పడుకోటానికి మూడు గంటల మూడు ఆహారం తీసుకుంటే అది ఆరోగ్యానికి ఎంత మేలు చేస్తుందో చెప్పలేం అంటోంది తను.


జేజమ్మ అందానికి రహస్యం ఇదా అని చదివి వదిలేయకుండా మనం కూడా వయసు పైబడుతున్నా అందాన్ని ఎలా కాపాడుకోవాలో అనుష్క చెప్పిన మాటలు విని కొన్నయినా పాటిద్దామా.

Holi Beauty Care

Holi Beauty Care

 

Ladies and Gentleman , and we are addressing both the genders as we felt that we should share the skin and hair care tips that will help you take care of your body and have fun on Holi !

With most of us going for the Organic colours the question about using chemical laced colours and the damage that do may not arise …but for those who still insist on using these cheaply available colours as the Organic ones tend to be on the expensive side we present these tips for protecting your hair and skin:

Hair:

Use a scarf or bandana cap to cover your hair. Don’t leave your hair loose and put a pony for protecting long hair.

Use coconut or olive oil and massage your hair from tip to scalp. An oil massage will act as a shield against harmful chemicals and dust apart from protecting your hair it will also help you get rid of the colour from your hair easily.

Eyes:

Avoid wearing contact lenses when you are playing with colours it  can cause infections .Stick to wearing your glasses and wear some fancy glasses to go with the glam look.

Nails:

Paint your nails bright as this will help you keep your nails and the cuticles safe from the harsh colours .

Lips:

For protecting your lips while playing Holi, use a lipbalm or a lipstick so that it keeps the lips protected and moisturised at the same time.

Skin:

Make a mixture of 1 tablespoon each of coconut oil and olive oil .Apply this all over your skin especially behind the ears before playing Holi.

You could also moisturize your face with sunscreen for added protection. And avoid heavy makeup.

Quick tips:

Keep a soothing lotion like calamine or aloe Vera gel in handy in case you break into a rash and avoid further irritation.

Clean your eyes with water in case you have colour splashed and relax.

Wash with water first and than apply the lotion.

Avoid bleaching, shaving, waxing, facials of any types of clean-ups for a week after Holi as it will just harm your skin.

 


టీనేజ్ మొటిమలకు చెక్ చెప్పాలంటే...


టీనేజ్ మొటిమలకు చెక్ చెప్పాలంటే...


టీనేజ్ లోకి రాగానే ప్రతి వాళ్ళు ఎదుర్కొనే సమస్యే మొటిమలు. కాని వీటివల్ల అంతగా భయపడాల్సిన పని లేదని చెప్తున్నారు డెర్మిటాలజిస్టులు. అప్పటిదాకా నున్నగా, ముద్దుగా కనిపించే మొహంలో ఎర్రగా కనిపించే ఈ మొటిమలు వాళ్ళ అందానికి ఆనకట్టలుగా కనిపిస్తాయి. కొంతమంది అంతగా పట్టించుకోకపోయినా,మరికొందరు మొటిమల మొహంతో బైటకి వెళ్ళాలంటే తెగ ఇబ్బంది పడిపోతారు.

వయసు పెరుగుతూ 14, 15 సంవత్సరాల వయసు రాగానే శరీరంలో వచ్చే హార్మోన్ ఇమబాలన్స్ వల్ల ఎక్కువగా ఈ సమస్య మొదలవుతుందిట. శరీరంలో వచ్చే మార్పులు ఎదుర్కోవటం ఒక సమస్య అయితే ఈ మొటిమల బాధ ఇంకో సమస్య. దీనికోసం తల్లితండ్రులే కాస్త జాగ్రత్తలు తీసుకుని కొన్ని ఇంటి వైద్యాలు చేయటం వల్ల వాళ్ళ బాధని కొంతైనా తగ్గించగలుగుతారు.

ఈ సమస్య నివారణకి ముఖ్యంగా చేయాల్సింది శుభ్రత పాటించటం. పిల్లలు పడుకునే పిల్లో కవర్స్ వారానికి ఒకసారి మర్చిపోకుండా మారుస్తూ ఉండాలి. వాళ్ళు అస్తమాట్లు మొటిమలని ముట్టుకోకూడదని హెచ్చరించాలి. వాటిని గిల్లటం వల్ల సమస్య ఇంకా పెద్దదవుతుందని చెప్పాలి. బయట తినుబండారాలు తగ్గించాలి. ఈ వయసులో ఎక్కువగా బయట నూనేతో చేసిన పదార్థాలు తినటం వల్ల మొటిమలు ఎక్కువ అవుతాయి.

ఇక వచ్చిన మొటిమలనితగ్గించుకోవటం ఎలాగో చూద్దాం...

బేకింగ్ సోడా - మొటిమల నివారణకు బేకింగ్  సోడా చక్కగా పనిచేస్తుంది. బేకింగ్ సోడాలో కొద్దిగా నీరు కలిపి ఆ పేస్టుని వాటి మీద రాసి కాసేపు ఉంచాకా నీతితో కడిగేసుకుంటే మంచి ఫలితం ఉంటుంది.

ఓట్స్ - చర్మంలో ఉన్న సూక్ష్మ రంద్రాలనిశుభ్రపరిచే గుణం ఓట్స్ లో పుష్కలంగా ఉంది. అంతేకాక ఎక్కువగా ఉన్న జిడ్డుని కూడా తగ్గిస్తుంది. ఉడికించిన ఓట్స్ లో 1 స్పూన్ తేనే,1/2 స్పూన్ నిమ్మరసం కలిపి మొటిమలపై రాసి అరగంట తరవాత గోరువెచ్చటి నీటితో కడుగుకుంటే చాలు, సమస్య తగ్గుముఖం పడుతుంది.

ముల్తాని మిట్టి -  మొహం మీద ఉండే మృత కణాలు సులువుగా పోవాలంటే ముల్తాని మిట్టి ఒక మంచి ఉపాయం. రోజ్ వాటర్, చందనం పొడి, ముల్తాని మిట్టి ఈ మూడింటిని సమపాళ్ళలో పేస్టులా కలిపి వాటిని మొహం మీద అప్లై చేసి అది ఆరేవరకు ఆగి నీటితో శుబ్రపరుచుకుంటే ఈ సమస్య తగ్గుముఖం పడుతుంది. ఇలా వారానికి ఒకసారి చేస్తే చాలు.

టూథ్ పేస్టు - ఆశ్చర్యపోయే పని లేదు నిజంగానే టూత్ పేస్టు మొతిమలకి మంచి మందు. రాత్రి పడుకునే ముందు తెల్లగా ఉండే టూత్ పేస్టు మొటిమలపై రాసి మర్నాడు ఉదయం కడిగేసుకోవాలి. ఇలా చేస్తూ ఉంటే రెండు, మూడు రోజులలోనే మార్పు గమనించచ్చు.

దాల్చిన చెక్క పొడి - ఇంట్లో సులువుగా దొరికే దాల్చిన చెక్క పొడిని మొటిమల నివారణకు వాడచ్చు. రెండు చెంచాల తేనెలో ఒక చెంచా దాల్చీనీ పొడి కలిపి దానిని మొటిమలపై రాస్తే అవి బాగా తగ్గుతాయి.

బొప్పాయి - బొప్పాయి కూడా మొటిమల నివారణకి ఒక మందులా పనిచేస్తుంది. ఇది చర్మంపై ఉన్న మృతకణాలను తొలగిస్తుంది. పండిన బొప్పాయిని గుజ్జులా చేసి మొహానికి పట్టించాలి, అది పూర్తిగా ఆరాకా గోరు వెచ్చటి నీటితో కడిగేసుకుంటే చాలు మోహంలో మొటిమలు పోవటమే కాదు, నున్నగా కూడా కనిపిస్తుంది.

అరటి తొక్క - అరటిపండు ఆరోగ్యానికి ఎంత మంచిదో దాని తొక్క మొటిమలకు అంత మంచి మందు. అరటి తొక్కతో మొహం మీద గుండ్రంగా రుద్దుతూ ఉండాలి. ఒక 5 నిమిషాలు ఇలా చేసాకా అరగంట ఆరనిచ్చి కడిగెయ్యాలి.

బంగాళదుంప - ఇంట్లో ఉండే ఆలుని పెట్తటి పేస్టులా చేసి మొటిమలపై రాసి ఒక పావుగంట తరువాత కడిగితే మొటిమలు తగ్గుముఖం పడతాయి.

మొటిమలతో బాధపడే వాళ్ళు వారానికి ఒకసారి మొహానికి ఆవిరి పట్టటం మంచిదని చెప్తున్నారు వైద్యులు. అలాగే పచ్చి పాలల్లో దూది ముంచి దానితో మొహాన్ని తుడుచుకుంటూ ఉండాలి. ఇలా చెయ్యటం వల్ల మొహం మీద పేరుకుపోయిన దుమ్ము ధూళి మాయం అయ్యి మొహంలో నిగారింపు వస్తుంది. అలాగే టీనేజ్ లోకి వచ్చిన పిల్లలు ఎక్కువగా నూనేతో చేసిన పదార్థాలు తినటం తగ్గించాలి. ఇలా మొటిమలపై కాస్త శ్రద్ధ చూపిస్తే చాలు అవి మిమ్మల్ని ఇబ్బంది పెట్టావు.

సమంతా అందానికి కారణం.....

 

 

సమంతా అందానికి కారణం.....

 


వయసు ముప్పై దాటబోతున్నా ఇంకా అందాలబొమ్మలా కనిపించే సమంతా అంత స్లిమ్ గా, యాక్టివ్ గా ఎలా ఉండగలుగుతోంది అని చాల మందికే సందేహం రావచ్చు. ఏం మాయ చేసావే అని కుర్రకారు ఇప్పటికి పాటలు పాడటం ఆపట్లేదు. అలాంటి సమంతా అందానికి రహస్యం  ఏంటో తెలుసుకుందామా.


సమంతా రోజు ఉదయం లేవగానే ముందుగా చేసే పని ఎక్సర్సైజ్. తన ఫిట్నెస్ మాస్టర్ రాజేష్ సూచనల మేరకు శరీరానికి తగిన విధంగా వ్యాయామం ఎంచుకుని క్రమం తప్పకుండా చేస్తుందిట. లేవగానే ఇలా చేయటం అలవాటుగా మారిపోయి చెయ్యకపోతే అస్సలు తోచదని చెప్తోంది. షూటింగ్ కోసం వేరే ఊర్లు తిరిగే సమయంలో జిమ్ కి  వెళ్ళటం కురరదు కాబట్టి అలాంటి సమయాల్లో జాగింగ్ చేస్తుందిట.

 


మనిషి శరీరంలోంచి ఎంత చెమట బైటకి పోతే అంత మంచిదని చెప్తున్న సమంతా రోజులో కనీసం అరగంట సేపైనా ఎక్సర్సైజ్ చేస్తుందిట. తను తినే ఆహారంలో ఎక్కువగా ఆకుకూరలు, తృణధాన్యాలు, పాలు, పళ్ళు ఉండేలా జాగ్రత్త పడుతుంది. ఎక్కువగా సాంబార్ అన్నం అంటే ఇష్టపడే తనకి ఎక్కడ లావుగా అయిపోతానో అనే బెంగే లేదట. తమిళ అమ్మాయి  అయిన తనకి దానికి తగ్గట్టుగానే దోస, ఇడ్లి, పొంగలి ఇలాంటివన్నీ చాలా ఇష్టం. డైటింగ్ అనేది ఇష్టపడని తను ఏది ఇష్టమనిపిస్తే అది తింటుందిట. ఎంత తిన్న దానికి తగ్గ పని చేస్తే చాలని తన అభిప్రాయం.


బయటకి వెళ్ళేటప్పుడు మర్చిపోకుండా సన్ స్క్రీన్ లోషన్ తీసుకెళుతుంది  సమంతా. ఎక్కువగా షూటింగ్స్ లో ఉన్నప్పుడు తనని  ఎండ నుంచి రక్షించే ఏకైక సాధనం ఈ సన్ స్క్రీన్ అని చెప్తోంది.


శరీరంలో మృదుత్వం పోకుండా ఉండేందుకు ఎక్కువగా నీళ్ళు, కొబ్బరి బొండాలు తాగుతుంది. ఎక్కువగా వదులుగా ఉండే బట్టలని ఇష్టపడని తనకి చీర కట్టుకోవటం ఇష్టమట. అందరు ఆడవాళ్లు  వాళ్ళు ఎలా ఉన్నారా అని పదేపదే అనుకుంటారు కాని ఒక మనిషిలో చూడాల్సింది అందం కాదు, వాళ్ళ వ్యక్తిత్వాన్ని, వాళ్ళ మనసుని అని చెప్తోంది తను.

ఎండల్లో హాయిహాయిగా

 

ఎండల్లో హాయిహాయిగా

 

ఎండాకాలం వచ్చిందంటే చాలు అమ్మాయిలు చర్మసౌందర్యం పట్ల మరింత శ్రద్ధ చూపించటం మొదలుపెడతారు. మిగిలిన కాలాల్లో కాంతులీనుతూ ఉండే చర్మం ఎండాకాలం వచ్చేసరికి మొహం పోడిబారిపోయినట్టు, జీవం లేనట్టు తయారవుతుంది. అలాంటప్పుడు రోజులో ఒక్క 10 నిమిషాలు ఈ సమస్య కోసం టైం కేటాయిస్తే చాలు,  కొన్ని జాగ్రత్తలు తీసుకుంటే చాలు ఎండల్లో కూడా హాయిహాయిగా ఉండచ్చు.

 

* ఎండలలో బయట తిరిగి ఇంటికి రాగానే ముందుగా మొహాన్ని శుభ్రం చేసుకోవటం మంచిది. సబ్బులతో పనిలేకుండా ఇంట్లోనే క్లెన్శింగ్ మిక్స్ ను తయారుచేసుకోవచ్చు. కాస్త  బాదంపప్పు ,ఓట్స్, పాలు, రోస్ వాటర్ కలిపి మొహానికి పట్టించి  కాసేపు ఉంచుకుని కడిగేసుకుంటే చాలు.


* కీరదోస కూడా మొహం మీద మురికి పోవటానికి చాల బాగా పనిచేస్తుంది. కీరా  పేస్టు లో కొద్దిగా పాలు కలిపి మొహానికి రాసుకుంటే మొహం మీదుండే మురికి మొత్తం పోతుంది.

 

*  ఎండలో వెళ్ళేటప్పుడు సన్ స్క్రీన్ లోషన్ అందరూ వాడతారు, అయితే అలా వాడేటప్పుడు దానిలో SPF అంటే sun protection factor కనీసం 15 ఉండేలా చూసుకోవాలి. ఇది మన చర్మాన్ని 15 శాతం ఎక్కువ కాపాడుతుంది. ఏమి అప్లయ్ చేయని చర్మం ఎండ బారిన పడటానికి 20 నిముషాలు పడుతుంది అదే సన్ స్క్రీన్ వాడితే 300 నిమిషాలు ఎండ మన మీద దాని ప్రభావాన్ని చూపించలేదు.


* ఎక్కువగా  ఎండల్లో తిరగాల్సిన పని ఉన్నవాళ్ళు మొహం మీద జిడ్డు మొతాన్ని తొలగించుకోవటానికి స్ట్రాబెర్రీ లేదా బొప్పాయి పండు గుజ్జును మొహానికి పట్టించి పది నిమిషాల తరువాత కడిగేసుకుంటే  కనిపిస్తుంది.

 

  ఎండాకాలంలో ఎన్ని జాగ్రత్తలు తీసుకుంటున్నా మొహానికి ఫేషియల్ చేయించుకోవటం కూడా చాలా అవసరం.  ఇంట్లోనే ఈజీగా ఫేషియల్ చేసుకోవాలంటే అలొవెరా జెల్ లో ఆరెంజ్ జ్యూస్ కలిపి మొహానికి పట్టించి 20 నిమిషాల తరువాత కదిగేసుకోవచ్చు.


* అరటి పండు, తేనే కలిపి మెత్తగా పేస్టులా చేసి మొహానికి పట్టించి అరగంట తరువాత కడిగేసుకున్నా చాలు మొహంలో మంచి నిగారింపు వస్తుంది.

 

 ఇవన్ని ఎలా ఉన్నా ఎండల్లో కూడా హాయిహాయిగా ఉండాలంటే టీ, కాఫీలకి దూరంగా ఉంటూ కొబ్బరి నీళ్ళు, నిమ్మరసం, బార్లీ, చోడుపిండి అంటే రాగి జావ, తాజా ఆకుకూరలు-కూరగాయలు, చక్కని ఫ్రూట్ జ్యూస్ లు తగిన విధంగా తీసుకుంటే చాలు ఎండ మన దగ్గరకి రావటానికి కూడా భయపడుతుంది.

మొదట గ్లాసు డ్రాపర్ బాటిల్ తీసుకోవాలి. ఇందులో పైన చెప్పుకున్న పదార్థాలన్నీ వేయాలి. జొజోబా ఆయిల్, ఆర్గాన్ ఆయిల్, రోజ్ షిప్ ఆయిల్ లో యాంటీ ఆక్సిడెంట్లు పుశ్కలంగా ఉంటాయి. ఇవి చర్మానికి పోషకాన్ని అందిస్తాయి. ఇక లావెండర్ ఆయిల్ చర్మాన్ని కాపాడుతుంది. చర్మం మీద వాపులు, అలర్జీలు, దురద  వంటి సమస్యల్ని దూరం చేస్తుంది. చర్మానికి కొత్తదనాన్ని ఇస్తుంది.

గ్లాసు డ్రాపర్ బాటిల్ లో అన్ని వేసి బాగా కలిపి మిశ్రమంలా తయారుచేసుకోవాలి. దీన్ని ఎండ తగలని ప్లేస్ లో పెట్టాలి. ప్రతిరోజు రాత్రి కొన్ని చుక్కల సీరమ్ ను ముఖానికి రాసి బాగా మసాజ్ చేసుకోవాలి. మొత్తం నూనె ముఖ చర్మంలోకి ఇంకేవరకు మసాజ్ చేసుకోవాలి. రాత్రి సమయంలో అయితే మరింత మంచి ఫలితం ఉంటుంది.

ప్రయోజనాలు..

ఈ సీరమ్ రాసుకోవడం వల్ల ముఖ చర్మం మీద మచ్చలు తగ్గుతాయి. ముఖంలో గ్లో వస్తుంది. ఇందులో వాడిన పదార్థాలు అన్నీ సహజమైనవే కాబట్టి  ఎలాంటి సైడ్ ఎఫెక్ట్ ఉండదు. అయినా సరే ముందుగా ప్యాచ్ టెస్ట్ చేసుకుని వాడటం మంచిది.

సమ్మర్ లో మహిళలు తీస్కోవాల్సిన జాగ్రత్తలు...

సమ్మర్ హీట్ మోతెక్కిస్తోంది. బయటికి వెళ్లాలంటేనే భయం వేసేంతగా వాతావరణం మారిపోయింది. ఎక్కువగా బయట తిరిగే మహిళల చర్మం ఈ సమ్మర్ ఎఫెక్ట్ కు నల్లగా మారిపోవడం, మేని ఛాయ తగ్గిపోవడం లాంటి సమస్యలు ఎదురౌతుంటాయి. ముఖ్యంగా మధ్యాహ్నపు ఎండ చర్మానికి తీవ్రమైన హాని కలుగజేస్తుంది. మహిళల మృదువైన చర్మంలో ఉండే సాగే గుణాన్ని, సమ్మర్ హీట్ ధ్వంసం చేస్తుంది. అందుకే మరీ అవసరమైతే తప్ప, మహిళలు బయటికి వెళ్లకుండా ఉండటమే శ్రేయస్కరం. ఒక వేళ తప్పనిసరైతే మాత్రం, స్కార్ఫ్, గ్లోవ్స్ తో పాటు, సాక్స్ కూడా వేసుకోవడం తప్పనిసరి. ఉదయం ఏడింటి వరకూ వచ్చే ఎండ చాలా మంచిది. ఇది చర్మానికి అవసరమైన విటమిన్లను అందిస్తుంది. శరీరంలో హార్మోన్ల ఉత్పత్తితో పాటు, డి విటమిన్, కాల్షియం సమృద్ధిగా లభిస్తుంది. కానీ ఆ తర్వాతి నుంచి మాత్రం భానుడి భగభగలు మొదలవుతాయి. అందుకే సమ్మర్ లో బయటికి వెళ్లేప్పుడు మాయిశ్చరైజర్ కంపల్సరీ. రెండు మూడు గంటలకోసారి సన్ స్క్రీన్ లోషన్ రాసుకోవాలి. పెదాలు పొడిబారిపోయి, పగిలిపోకుండా లిప్ బాప్ వాడుతుండాలి.

Trim your nails often for them to grow faster:

 

 


Regularly trimming your nails helps you to maintain healthy nails and also avoids breaking of nails. Neat and natural looking nails are always in trend than the long untidy nails. The more frequently you trim your nails, they grow back that much more faster.

If you see signs of infection, check with your doctor for the needed nail care. You'll probably recognize the signs of a bacterial infection (redness, swelling, and pain), but you might miss the early signs of a nail fungal infection, such as puffy, red, irritated skin around the nail bed. Fungal infections could sometimes require prescription medications for optimal nail care, get medical attention when healthy nails are at risk.

మొహాన్ని మెరిపించే  గోల్డ్ ఫేషియల్!

ఈ మధ్య కాలంలో గోల్డ్ ఫేషియల్ చేయించుకోవటం కామన్ అయిపొయింది. ఒకప్పుడు  బంగారం కొనాలంటే ఒకటికి పదిసార్లు ఆలోచించేవాళ్ళు మన పెద్దవాళ్ళు. అలాంటిది మారుతున్న కాలంతో పాటు బంగారాన్ని వాడే విధానంలో కూడా ఎన్నో మార్పులు చోటు చేసుకున్నాయి.

అసలీ గోల్డ్ ఫేషియల్ వల్ల మనకొచ్చే లాభమేంటి అని ఆలోచిస్తే, చాలా లాభాలే ఉన్నాయి అని చెప్పచ్చు. బంగారం పూతలా మొహానికి వేసుకోవటం వల్ల  మొహం మీద వచ్చే ముడతలు మాయం అవుతాయట.  అలాగే  ఏవైనా మచ్చలు ఉన్నా అవి కూడా  క్రమంగా తగ్గుముఖం పడతాయి.

చాలా మందికి చిన్న వయసులోనే వత్తిడి వల్ల మొహం మీద చర్మం జీవం లేకుండా వాడి పోయినట్టు తయారవుతుంది. అలాంటివాళ్ళు ఈ గోల్డ్ ఫేషియల్ చేయించుకుంటే మోహంలో నిగారింపు వచ్చి ఎంతో అందంగా కనపడే అవకాశం ఉంది.

బంగారం వల్ల  ఒంట్లో రక్త ప్రసరణ చక్కగా అయ్యి, శరీరానికి కావాల్సిన ప్రాణవాయువు కూడా తగిన విధంగా అందుతుందిట. బంగారాన్ని ముక్కుపుడకగా కుట్టించుకోవటం వల్ల ఆడవారికి గర్భశోక వ్యాధులు తగ్గుతాయట. అలాగే బంగారు గాజులు, ఉంగరాల వల్ల కూడా అనేక శారీరిక రుగ్మతల నుండి ఉపశమనం కలుగుతుంది.

ముందుగా క్లెన్సర్ తో మొహాన్ని శుభ్రం చేసుకుని నీళ్ళతో కడిగేసుకుని ఆరనివ్వాలి. అలా ఆరిన తరువాత స్క్రబ్బర్ ని అప్లై చేసి సర్కులర్ మూవ్మెంట్స్ ఇస్తూ మొహాన్ని మసాజ్ చెయ్యాలి. ఇలా చేసేటప్పుడు  మెడని కూడా స్క్రబ్ చేయటం మర్చిపోకండి. అలా ఒక 2 నిమిషాలు చేసాకా గోరు వెచ్చటి నీటితో మొహం కడుక్కుని ఆరనివ్వండి.

కళ్ళు పెద్దగా కనపడాలంటే....

 

అమ్మాయి అందాన్ని పొగడాలంటే ముందుగా కవులు పొగిడేది వాళ్ళ కళ్ళనే. కళ్ళు పెద్దగా ఉంటే చాలు అందం రెండింతలు ఎక్కువవుతుంది. మరి చిన్న కళ్ళు ఉన్న వాళ్ళ సంగతేంటి అంటే దానికీ ఉపాయాలు లేకపోలేదు. వేసుకునే మేకప్ లో, తీసుకునే జాగ్రత్తల్లో కాస్త మెళకువలు పాటిస్తే చాలు చిన్న కళ్ళని కూడా పెద్దగా చూపించచ్చు. మరి అవేంటో చూసేద్దామా.


మనం రోజూ పెట్టుకునే కాటుకతో పాటు మరికొన్ని మేకప్ ఐటమ్స్  జతచేసుకోవటం ఎంతైనా అవసరం. ఐ లైనర్ కళ్ళని పెద్దగా చూపించటానికి ఎంతగానో ఉపయోగపడుతుంది. ఇది  వేసుకోవటం మొదట్లో కాస్త రాకపోయినా అలవాటయితే చాలా ఈజీగా అనిపిస్తుంది. మొదటిగా ఒకేసారి కనురెప్పలపై  పెద్దగా ఐ లైనర్ దిద్దుకుని వెళితే మీ స్నేహితులు మిమ్మల్ని ఏడిపించే వీలుంది. కాబట్టి మొదట్లో  రెప్పలపై సన్నగా వేసుకోవటం మంచిది. అలా అలా ఆ లైన్ ని పెంచుతూ వెళ్ళండి.

 

మస్కారా కళ్ళని పెద్దగా చూపించటానికి ఎంతగానో ఉపయోగపడుతుంది. కనురెప్పలని పైకి ఒత్తుతూ వేసుకునే మస్కారా వల్ల  కళ్ళు విశాలంగా కనపడతాయి. కొంతమందికి కనుబొమలు, కనురెప్పలు కూడా పల్చగా ఉంటాయి. అలాంటి వాళ్ళ కళ్ళు మరీ చిన్నగా కనిపిస్తాయి. వాళ్ళు రోజూ పడుకునే ముందు ఆలివ్ ఆయిల్ రాసుకుంటే కొన్ని రోజుల్లోనే అవి వత్తుగా మారతాయి. కొంతమంది ఆముదాన్ని కూడా వాడతారు.

 

కళ్ళకి ఐ లైనర్ పెట్టుకునేటప్పుడు కంటి చివర వరకు  దానిని అప్లై చేస్తూ కాస్త బయటకి కూడా తీసుకెళ్ళి కోన్ షేప్ వచ్చేటట్టు చూసుకోవాలి. అంటే కళ్ళకన్నా కాస్త బయటకి తీసుకెళ్లటం అన్నమాట. రెగ్యులర్ గా ఐబ్రోస్ షేప్ చేయించుకుంటూ ఉండాలి కూడా. ఐబ్రోస్ ఎప్పుడయితే మరీ వత్తుగా ఉంటాయో అప్పుడు అవి కళ్ళని డామినేట్ చేస్తాయి. అలా కాకుండా చూసుకుంటే చాలు.

 

మనం ఎంత మేకప్ వేసుకున్నా కళ్ళ చుట్టూ ఉండే డార్క్ సర్కిల్స్ కళ్ళ అందాన్నిదెబ్బతీసి అవి హైలైట్ అవ్వకుండా చేస్తాయి. ఈ డార్క్ సర్కిల్స్ పోవటానికి ఒక మంచి చిట్కా ఉంది. రెండు స్టీల్ చెంచాలని రాత్రి పడుకునే ముందు ఫ్రిడ్జ్ లో పెట్టి ఉంచండి. ఉదయం లేవగానే వాటిని కళ్ళపై బోర్లించి మూడు నిముషాలు అలానే ఉంచండి. దీనివల్ల కళ్ళ చుట్టూ ఉండే నలుపు పోవటమే కాదు ఆ రోజంతా కళ్ళు కాస్త పెద్దగా కనిపించటం కూడా మీరే గమనించచ్చు.


అలాగే కనురెప్పలు  వెనక్కి వంపు తిరిగి ఉండాలంటే రెండు చెంచాలని వేడి నీళ్ళల్లో కాసేపు ఉంచి వాటిని తీసి కనురెప్పలను వంచుతూ వెనక్కి నొక్కి పెట్టి ఆ చెంచాను అలానే ఉంచాలి. రెండు మూడు నిమిషాల తరువాత తీసి చూస్తే రెప్పలు వంపు తిరిగి కనిపిస్తాయి. అవి ఆ రోజంతా అలానే ఉంటాయి కూడా.


ఇప్పుడు మార్కెట్ లో ఫాల్స్ ఐ లాషేస్ కూడా దొరుకుతున్నాయి. వాటిని జాగ్రత్తగా పెట్టుకోవటం వస్తే చాలు, వాటివల్ల కూడా కళ్ళు పెద్దగా కనిపిస్తాయి. మొత్తానికి చిన్నగా కనిపించే కళ్ళు మరింత అందంగా, ఆరోగ్యంగా కనపడాలంటే రోజూ తగినన్ని నీళ్ళు తాగటం మర్చిపోకూడదు. అలాగే కళ్ళు చాలా సున్నితమైనవి కాబట్టి వాటి కోసం వాడే ఐ లైనర్స్, మస్కారా, ఐబ్రో పెన్సిల్, కాజల్ ఇలాంటివన్నీ మంచి కంపెనీవి ఎంచుకుని కొనుక్కోవాలి. ఎంతైనా కళ్ళే కదా మనకి అందాన్ని రెట్టింపు చేసేవి.

Refreshing Rose Water

 

Refreshing Rose Water

 

 

Rose is not just a flower for us. It has been a symbol of beauty, an icon for love and a mark of youthfulness. The healing power of rose is not new for Indians. We have been using it in traditional medicine for hundreds of years. From Gulkand to Liquor... we have been trying rose petals in numerous ways. The best and most popular form of rose is the Rose Water. Even dermatologists now agree that Rose is one of most effective and inexpensive remedy for skin health.


PH balance: Most of the skin problems we face are due to imbalance of PH values in our skin. The excess oil and sweat create a battle ground on our face. The excess oil would clog the pores of our skin and bacteria from sweat would make it rough. Cleaning the face with a dab of rose water would certainly maintain a healthy PH balance.

 

Acne: Rose water is believed to possess anti-inflammatory property. Thus it would prevent acne, blemishes and blackheads. Applying Rose water along with a portion of lemon juice twice a week could get rid of skin problems associated with facial skin.

 

Best moisturizer: Rose Water is one of the best natural moisturizers available for us. It would make skin smooth and sensitive. The natural sugars present in Rose Water would moisturize the skin and make it feel refreshed.

 

Anti- aging: Rose Water would leave a fresh look on our face for two reasons.

1- It is known to stimulate the circulation in the tiny blood vessels that are spread over the face.

2- The anti-oxidant properties of rose water would strengthen and regenerate the skin tissue.

 

Dark Circles: People try a lot of remedies to get rid of the dark circles under the eyes. But experts suggest trying Rose Water first. Dip a cotton pad in Rose Water and place it on your eyes for at least 15 minutes a day, and you would be the one who would suggest this remedy to others. This application can also do wonders for those with puffy eyes.

 

Hair: Very few knew the miraculous effect of Rose Water on hair. Try it instead of hair moisturiser and you would never leave it. Due to the anti bacterial and anti inflammatory properties, Rose Water could be effective in symptoms such as dandruff.

 

Sun Screen: Rose water could act as a sun screen while you go on a vacation. It is known to prevent sunburns and tans. And if you have come home after getting exposed to too much of sunlight, clean your face with water mixed with Rose Water and you could feel refreshed.

Green Tea, Sugar and Honey Scrub:

Green tea is said to have anti-aging effects when applied to the skin. It reduces wrinkles and blemishes, and even repair scar tissue. For best results, use loose green tea and a tea ball or strainer, rather than using a bag of green tea. If you're using bagged green tea, go with plain tea, rather than flavored. This will give you a more concentrated result.

 

Pour a tablespoon or two of already prepared tea decoction into a bowl. Allow the tea to cool.Pour a tablespoon of sugar into the tea. Keep adding sugar until the mixture has a consistency that's gritty enough to scrub your skin, but still wet enough to apply easily. Stir in a tablespoon of honey. Make sure it's thoroughly mixed in. Honey has great moisturizing and antibacterial properties.

 

To store this scrub for later, put the mixture in a jar sealed with a lid. Keep it in a cool, dry place. It should last for several weeks.Apply the scrub to a freshly washed face. Rub the scrub all over your face, concentrating in spots that are dry. Use a wet washcloth to remove the scrub, and splash cold water over your face when you're finished.


Homemade sugar scrub:

Primarily composed of sugar, oil and essential oil (for fragrance), this scrub is exactly like the expensive scrubs available at spas and department stores, for a mere fraction of the cost. Even better, this scrub is simple to make, and works perfectly on hands, body and face and most definitely, feet.

 

For the preparation of this sugar scrub you would need the following: ½ cup sugar (white or brown), ¼ cup oil (olive, coconut or almond oil), essential oil (optional)

 

Mix ingredients together and you’re done. The sugar won’t dissolve in the oil and acts as an exfoliant. The oil moisturises your skin, leaving it silky smooth. And the essential oil is added for fragrance. Rub the scrub on your skin in a circular motion, then rinse completely. The scrub can be stored in an airtight container on your countertop and will last up to 2 months.

 

Honey and Cinnamon Scrub:

Clean your face with lukewarm water first then clean it with a soft cloth, then apply the following scrub. Put 1 1/4 teaspoons of cinnamon in a small bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of honey to the bowl. Stir until it forms a thick paste. Apply in circular motion. Wait for 30 minutes. Then rinse off with warm water. Pat dry gently so that the skin remains soft and smooth.

 

Cleansing cream and Sugar Scrub:

Wash your face thoroughly. Splash a little lukewarm water on your face, and use a soft and clean cloth to gently scrub it. You may also use some facial soap, whichever you prefer or is best for your skin. Put about a teaspoon of cleansing cream in the palm of your hand. This can be whatever you have on hand - just make sure it is creamy in texture. Pour 2 teaspoons of sugar over the cleansing cream. use both hands to mix the cleansing cream and sugar together, creating a gritty paste.

 

Use a fine grained sugar, rather than course or turbinado sugar. Larger grains can scratch your face. If you want to make extra scrub for later, mix the cleansing cream and the sugar in a bowl, adding the right amount of both ingredients to create a gritty texture. Place the mixture in a jar with a lid, and store on your bathroom shelf for next time. Apply the mixture to your face in a circular motion. pay close attention to the side of the nose and any little lines or dry spots. Be careful around the eyes. Then splash water on your face and pat dry with a soft cloth.

 

Oatmeal and Almond Scrub:

Oatmeal is incredibly soothing to skin, but it must be finely ground up to be used as a scrub. To make 1/2 cup of ground oatmeal for scrubs, use a blender, small food processor or coffee grinder. Grind 3/4 to 1 cup of oatmeal until it's has the consistency of flour.

The ingredients for this include 2 cups finely ground oatmeal, 1 cup ground almond, 1 cup sugar, few drops of your any essential oil which is optional, whole milk, at least half a cup.

Place all the dry ingredients in a Ziploc bag and shake it. Pour the ingredients in a bowl and then add a few tablespoons of milk until you have formed a paste. Just add drops of it until I get a perfect paste. Apply in a circular motion. Let it dry and then rinse. After that apply moisturiser to the skin.

Say Good bye to Dark Circles With these Tips

Say Good bye to Dark Circles With these Tips!

 

Dark circles are the most common issues which a lot of people, especially women, face in their daily life. There are various reasons why one gets dark circles under the eyes. Over time, skin naturally loses collagen and grows thinner, so regardless of what kind of skin you have or what good habits you maintain, veins will inevitably start to show through the thin skin around your eyes. As we already know, exposure to the sun speeds up the process of collagen breaking down, so your best weapon against undereye circles are disciplined and consistent sunscreen lotion application habits from a young age.

Genetics are the biggest culprit. If you inherit fair or thin skin under the eyes, it’s more obvious when blood pools there. Age is another factor. Also getting stressed out and not getting enough sleep also result in it. So here we suggest some easy home remedies which you could follow to have a brighter face sans the dark circles.

Get Adequate sleep: Another important tip on how to get rid of dark circles under eyes is to remember that you need to have a good 8 hour sleep regularly, every night, drink plenty of water and eat healthy.  Sleeping on your back can prevent gravity from causing fluid build-up around the eyes. Consider adding an extra pillow under your head as well, but make sure it is a pillow that is effective for good sleep for if you can’t sleep, that can add to the dark circles under the eyes problem.

Remove Your Makeup Before Going to Bed: Leaving your eye makeup on can irritate your eyes, causing them to water and and get puffy. Make sure to gently remove your eye makeup before hitting the hay to help eliminate any added irritation around the eyes.

Regularly follow Simple home remedies: Most commonly, you can place cold cucumber slices directly on your closed eyelids for 10-15 minutes to help reduce the circles under your eyes, or something similarly cold like cold potato slices, chilled tea bags, cold metal spoons, or a bag of frozen peas wrapped in a towel. For a more esoteric self-spa treatment, you can also use crushed mint leaves, almond oil, or a cotton ball soaked in rose water to help reduce eye puffiness.

Stop Smoking: Smoking cigarettes dries out the skin and weakens the skin on your face as well as your whole body. It also causes premature aging around the eyes, in particular. The chemicals found in cigarettes are toxic and can cause irritation around the eyes, which could result in dark circles or bags in addition to a wrinkled, droopy appearance.

Alcohol consumption makes it worst: The same concerns excessive alcohol consumption. If you want to say good-bye to under eye circles forever, you need to get rid of those two bad habits and then, you will see an improvement. Alcohol dehydrates your body and skin. This dehydration can cause the delicate area around your eyes to appear sunken and dark. Also, alcohol can cause bloodshot, tired eyes.

Reduce salt consumption: The parts of your body that are low in sodium (salt) contain more water, while the parts of your body with more sodium contain less water. When your body doesn’t have enough water but too much salt, you can look and feel puffy and bloated. The skin around your eyes is especially thin and vulnerable to dehydration. When you eat a salty meal but don’t drink enough water, your body will literally “look” dehydrated.

Suffering from painful acne...Here is a remedy

 

 

Suffering from painful acne? Here is a remedy

 

 

Acne or pimples, is one issue a lot of women are forced to face in their lives quite often. While what you eat and how you look after your skin makes a whole lot of difference in putting them off your face, you sometimes invariably have to find a way to get rid of it. The painful acne which is under the skin and does not  rise up like whiteheads or blackheads is also called cystic acne. They're clogged pores filled with oil and dead skin that have become inflamed. They turn into cystic acne when the pore ruptures under the skin, causing the inflammation to spill out into the surrounding tissue. Your body forms a cyst around it to stop the inflammation from spreading further. Cystic pimples also can leave scars if left untreated.

 

Honey and cinnamon make a great combination when it comes to acne. Cinnamon has antimicrobial properties, so it can help stop bacteria from getting out of hand while honey is a natural anti-biotic. You could mix 2 tablespoons of honey with 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and make a paste out of it. Keep it aside. Rinse your face with water and pat dry. Now apply the mask to your face and leave on for 10-15 minutes. Rinse off completely, and pat your face dry. Repeat it regularly to see lasting effects on the skin.

 

According to a recent study, acne in women may be connected with a hormonal imbalance, either the normal hormonal changes that occur during the menstrual period, or an abnormal hormonal imbalance such as that which occurs with polycystic ovarian syndrome or one that results in elevated levels of male hormones. Women who suspect a hormonal connection should check with their doctors for testing. Often treating the underlying condition will help clear up the acne. Hormonal changes are also a factor in teenage cystic acne.

 

Another incredible approach to get rid of pimples is to use lemon juice. The gentle citrus extract will work as a germicide and kill the microscopic organisms in the organ while functioning as an astringent to go away overabundance oil.  Also for more persistent pimples, make a mixture of lemon juice and cinnamon powder and spot onto pimples for throughout the night treatment. This will help dispose of pimples rapidly, however this is not suggested for individuals with sensitive skin.

 

Steaming is one technique which has extraordinary results. It has some stunning advantages for the skin, opening up your pores and flushing all the terrible stuff out. This functions admirably for individuals with pimples. Fill a huge wide pot with high temp water and position your face so it comes into contact with the rising steam. Wait for thirty minutes. After that apply moisturizer over the whole face. This does wonders in getting rid of the painful pimples.


Tea tree oil isn’t like the oil your skin naturally produces, rather it is more like a solvent that cuts through the extra sebum and dead skin cells, and unblocks the pores. Its antibacterial properties also kill off the acne causing bacteria, and prevent further outbreaks.  Its mitigating properties help decrease the redness and aggravation of pimples. It additionally bails dry out pimples and whiteheads. Blend a couple of drops of tea tree oil in 1 tablespoon of Aloe Vera gel. Apply it on your pimples and imperfections, leave it on for 20 minutes and after that wash your face. But note that this technique is not for people with sensitive skin.

Advantages of using Jojoba oil for hair and skin

 

 

Jojoba oil is a nutrient rich natural oil that is great for hair and skin. Over the years, jojoba oil has been increasingly used in cosmetics, soaps and hair conditioners.  There are numerous health benefits the oil offers. Jojoba oil has amazing healing properties. This oil will leave the skin feeling refreshed after massage. It not only soothes away muscle aches and pains, but it will speed heeling of scars or abrasions on the skin, making it more comfortable and easier to move freely. It is non-greasy and feels light on the skin. It's natural feel allows the therapist to apply and massage easily. It also hydrates dry, flaky skin with deep penetrating fatty acids and nourishing vitamins that helps to keep skin feeling soft and smooth.

The different species of plants have been discovered through research over the years, but the jojoba plant and its extracted oil is the only one that comes close to resembling the oils our body excretes naturally. The fact that it is so close to human sebum means the scalp on our head will not react badly with the oil. The natural balance is maintained on the top of our head and that’s why jojoba oil is so good for hair as well as for your beard.

Since jojoba oil regulates the production of sebum, which causes acne, its use can help reduce further breakouts. Because it is very similar to sebum, it does not clog pores and will even help to clean out build-up of dead skin cells around pores that lead to acne. The vitamin E present in the oil contains anti-oxidants that help remove damaged cells and help new ones grow, therefore fading acne scars.  When used as a conditioner will help to eliminate dandruff. Often times, dandruff is caused by a dry scalp. Using jojoba oil helps to moisturize the scalp, thereby preventing dandruff. Simply, massage the oil into your head half an hour before washing your hair. Afterwards, shampoo as usual.

Jojoba oil contains Linoleic acid and other antioxidants that aid in skin and cell regeneration.  This is especially important to those of us who have struggled or are struggling with hair loss issues.  With our body regenerating cells, this allows our scalp to grow new, strong and healthy hairs, which contributes to the overall health, volume and lustre of our hair. Most people forget to exfoliate but this can lead to aged and wrinkled skin. Use a few drops of jojoba oil, emulsify with water, massage face using a muslin cloth then rinse well with clean water. This is a gentle way of exfoliating – you can do this once a week. Jojoba oil improves the look and health of skin, especially in regards to fine lines and texture.

Although a topical product won’t solve the underlying health issues which lead to eczema and psoriasis, jojoba oil is a favorite among people looking for relief from these conditions. Jojoba oil works well to treat the dry, scaly skin typical of eczema, and is a favorite of many eczema-prone natural beauties even when they’re not in the middle of a flare-up.Flaky skin is especially helped by jojoba oil.

The rainfall gives joy and happiness. However, this time brings some skin problems also. The skin becomes oily, irritable and dehydrated during this time. Here is how you could take care of the skin in the monsoon. First and foremost drink loads of water. This is one of the best and the cheapest way to attain good, healthy and flawless skin, irrespective of the season. Try to drink at least 8-10 glasses of water everyday and you would definitely notice a drastic change within 2-3 months.It is essential that you exfoliate your skin daily to rid it of dead cells but do so gently.

 

Make your own homemade face peels and packs using ingredients from your kitchen. They are natural and will do a world of good for your skin. If oily skin is your problem then moisturizers that are water based are a great option to help keep oil secretion in check. Use a reliable sunscreen with a good SPF. It may be cloudy but that doesn’t stop the sun’s UV rays from wreaking havoc. Also cleanse your skin at least 3 times a day to remove excess grime and oil that can clog your pores. Some ladies regularly apply bleach over their face to get a glow. But, skin care tips for monsoon include avoiding of bleaching. You may use bleach in any other season but monsoon is the season when bleaches should be strictly avoided. This can even make your face rough.

 

Here are some best ways to remove excessive oil during monsoon. If your skin is oily, the best way to  is through the oatmeal scrub. This is also a skin care tip for all those with limitless oil secretion during monsoon. You have to add little honey to the oatmeal and apply over your face.

The dead skin so formed will be easily removed with this skin care treatment.

 

Monsoon is the time of humidity which creates itchiness on the scalp. It is recommended that warm coconut oil massage will help to get rid of itchiness.  If there is dandruff in the scalp, massage with neem oil. While shampooing and conditioning your hair twice a week will suffice during any other season you might want to do so more frequently during the monsoons. This is because the humidity that is pervasive during the wet spell makes you sweat; and sweat makes it easy for grime and germs to latch on to your skin.

 

For some care for your feet, do let your feet breathe. Wearing closed footwear will make your feet sweat, which in turn will lead to fungal and bacterial infections. Instead wear waterproof footwear like sandals and floaters. Also do make sure when you go for a pedicure that the tools are sterilized. While most salons do maintain hygienic conditions, wet spells make it hard to do so. Check that all the tools are disinfected; if required ask them to do so in front of you.

Is Your Hair Turning Grey Because Of Stress!

 

 

Is Your Hair Turning Grey Because Of Stress!

 

 

Hair is something both men and women love to take care of and also flaunt new styles will a lot of excitement. But one thing which sends distress signals across is the discovery of a grey strand in those lustrous locks! Research says that the first silvery strands of hair normally appear around age 30 for men and 35 for the women. However for some people, graying can start in as early as high school, and for some as late as their 50s. There could be various reasons in play for this. Initially, hair is white. It gets its natural color from a type of pigment called melanin. The formation of melanin begins before birth. The natural color of our hair depends upon the distribution, type and amount of melanin in the middle layer of the hair shaft or cortex. Hair has only two types of pigments: dark (eumelanin) and light (phaeomelanin). They blend together to make up the wide range of hair colours.

There are various reasons for hair turning grey. Some of the most prominent ones are, you’re exposed to cigarette smoke, your hormones are changing, your environment is polluted, you’re super stressed, and your age. You may not be ready for the grey hair, but your hair is. Melanin production, what gives hair its pigment, decreases with age. For every decade after you turn 30, your risk of going gray increases 10 to 20 percent, according to research. So while some people may be able to maintain their natural hair color for longer, it’s inevitable. In time, everyone’s hair goes grey.

A lot of general health practitioners have reported that clients who have reported to be living under stress for a few years have accelerated graying processes. Scientists surmise that while hair graying is genetically outlined, stress and certain lifestyle choices can give you a variation of about plus or minus 10 years. Since stress causes hair loss, it's possible that losing some pigmented hair can make those gray hairs more noticeable. Our heads contain hundreds of thousands of follicles, and each follicle is charged with producing one hair. Cells known as keratinocytes build the keratin that becomes our hair, our skin and fingernails are also composed of keratin. 

Before hair emerges from the follicle, though, other cells known as melanocytesinject a pigment called melanin into the keratin. When our hair turns gray, it's due to lowered amounts of melanin, and when hair is completely white, our hair lacks melanin altogether. Grey hair caused by ageing is the result of exhaustion and loss of melanocyte stem cells, and stress could cause similar results. There are two prevailing hypotheses. The first is that aging wears down your DNA, somehow inhibiting the production of the cells called melanocytes that produce melanin. Most of the studies supporting this hypothesis have been done in mice, however, and so far haven’t closed in on a complete explanation of how this would work. Whatever could be the scientific results of it. Its always more healthier to stay happy and stress free. You never know you are warding off various beauty issues by it and would be leading a healthier life!

 చాలామందికి ముఖంపై నల్లటి మచ్చలు కనిపిస్తుంటాయి. ఇవి చాలా చిన్నగా ఉంటాయి కూడా. ఇలాంటి మచ్చలు హార్మోన్ల అసమతుల్యత   లేదా ఎండకు  ఎక్కువగా చర్మం ఎఫెక్ట్ కావడం వల్ల వస్తుంటాయి.  విటమిన్-సితో కలిపి  విటమిన్-ఇ ఆయిల్‌ని ఉపయోగించడం ద్వారా  ఈ మచ్చలు తొలగించుకోవడమే కాకుండా హైపర్‌పిగ్మెంటేషన్ సమస్యను కూడా తగ్గించుకోవచ్చు.

కమలా పండు తొక్కను పొడి చేసుకుంటే చాలా కాలం నిల్వ ఉంటుంది. ఈ పొడి బెస్ట్ ట్యాన్ రిమూవర్ గా పనిచేస్తుంది. కమలా పండు తొక్కల పొడిని లేదా రసాన్ని స్నానం చేసేటపుడు నీటిలో కొద్దిగా వేసి ఆ నీటితో స్నానం చేస్తే చెమట వల్ల కలిగే చెడు వాసన పోతుంది. శరీరం మంచి రిలాక్స్ గా కూడా అనిపిస్తుంది.

కమలా పండు తొక్కలను ఉడికించి, చల్లారిన తరువాత ఆ నీటిని ఒక స్ప్రే బాటల్ లో వేసుకుని ఫేస్ క్లెన్సర్ గా ఉపయోగిస్తే ముఖం మీద మచ్చలు, మృతకణాలు తొలగిపోయి ముఖ చర్మం యవ్వనంగా మారుతుంది. 

ఇలా కమలా పండు తొక్కలు ఎంతగానో చర్మ సంరక్షణలో ఉపయోగపడతాయి. ఇకపోతే వీటిని తినడం వల్ల కలిగే ప్రయోజనాలు అందరికీ తెలిసినవే…

పాదాల సంరక్షణకు భలే చిట్కాలు!

పాదాల సంరక్షణకు భలే చిట్కాలు!

మహిళల అందంలో ప్రధాన పాత్ర పోషించే శరీర భాగాల్లో పాదాలు కూడా ముఖ్యమైనవే. అయితే సంరక్షణ విషయంలో ఇవి అట్టడుగున ఉంటాయి. ముఖం మీద మొటిమ వచ్చినా, చర్మం ముడతలు పడినా, డ్రెస్ కాస్త సరిగా సెట్ అవ్వకపోయినా ఆందోళన పడిపోయే అమ్మాయిలు పాదాల విషయంలో మాత్రం అసలు పట్టించుకోరు. అయితే కొత్త చెప్పులు కొనడానికి షాపుకు వెళ్లినప్పుడో… నలుగురిలో ఫంక్షన్స్ కు వెళ్ళినప్పుడు పట్టీలు పెట్టుకుని తిరగాల్సినప్పుడో, ఇంకా కొన్ని వేరు వేరు సందర్భాలలోనో… పాదాల పదనిస తగ్గి మనలో పల్స్ ను నలుగురిలో టెస్ట్ చేస్తాయి. పాదాలను సరిగా పట్టించుకోకపోతే పగుళ్లు వచ్చి, చీలిపోయి, చాలా ఎబ్బెట్టుగా కనిపిస్తాయి. అందుకే అందమైన పాదాల కోసం అదిరిపోయే చిట్కాలు మీకోసం….

ప్రతి రోజూ రాత్రి పండుకునే ముందు మూడు చెంచాల నిమ్మ రసములో రెండు చెంచాల గ్లిజరిన్ కలిపి కాళ్ళకు మర్దరా చేయాలి. ఇలా మర్దన చేస్తే.... కాళ్ళు మృదువుగా, అందంగా ఉంటాయి.

కాళ్ళ నొప్పులతో బాధపడేవారి కోసం ఒక మంచి చిట్కా ఉంది.  వెడల్పాటి గిన్నెలో గోరువెచ్చని నీరు పోసి, అందులో రెండు చెంచాల జిప్సమ్ సాల్ట్ వేసి ఆ నీటిలో పాదాలు మునిగేలా పదిహేను నిమిషాలు ఉంచాలి. ఇలా ఉంచితే.... కాళ్ళ నొప్పులు  తగ్గుతాయి.

అన్నిటికంటే సులువైన మరియు తొందరగా పూర్తయ్యే చిట్కా ఒకటుంది. ప్రతి రోజు స్నానము చేసేటప్పుడు 'వ్యూమిక్ స్టోన్' తో పాదాలను మృదువుగా రుద్దుకుంటే.... పాద సౌందర్యము పెరుగుతుంది.

రెండు చెంచాల ఆలివ్ ఆయిల్ లో కాస్త ఉప్పు కలిపుకోవాలి.  ఈ మిశ్రమాన్ని స్నానానికి ముందుగా కాళ్ళకు మర్దన చేసికొంటుంటే.. కాళ్ళకు ఆరోగ్యము అందము లభిస్తుంది.

వెడల్పాటి గిన్నెలో- గోరువెచ్చని నీరు పోసి, ఇందులో  ఒక ఔన్స్ 'సోడియమ్ సల్ఫేట్', మూడు ఔన్స్ 'బైకార్బోనేట్', నాలుగు ఔన్స్ ఉప్పువేసి కలిపి, ఈనీటిలో పాదాలు మునిగేలా కాసేపు వుంచితే కాళ్ళ నొప్పులు తగ్గటమే గాక పాదాలు శుభ్ర పడతాయి. కాళ్ళలో ఉండే మురికి, మలినాలు తొలగిపోతాయి. మృతచర్మం మెత్తబడి సులువుగా తొలగించేందుకు వీలవుతుంది. 

ప్రతిరోజు ఓ పది నిమిషాలసేపు మునివేళ్ళ మీద నడిస్తే.... కాలి కండరాలలో బలం పుంజుకుంటుంది.

శుభ్రముగా వున్న నేల మీద చెప్పులు వేసుకోకుండా కాసేపు నడుస్తుంటే.... పాదాలకు బలము వస్తుంది.

 వేడినీటిలో  కాసిని ఆవాలు వేసి, ఆ నీటిలో పాదాలు  పది నిమిషాలుంచి, ఆ తరువాత పాదాలను చన్నీటి పంపు కింద ఉంచాలి. ఇలా ఉంచితే.... పాదాలకు  బలము, సౌందర్యము చేకూరుతాయి. 

అందమైన కాళ్ళ కావాలంటే వ్యాయామం అవసరం. దీనికి 'ఈత' మంచి వ్యాయామంగా ఉపయోగపడుతుంది.

చెప్పులు లేకుండా కాసేపు ఇసుకలో నడవడం,  కుర్చీలో నిటారుగా కూర్చొని పాదాలతో నేల మీద సున్నా చుట్టుటానికి  ప్రయత్నించడం వలన... కాలి కండరాలు బలంగా తయారవులతాయి.

ముందుగా మునివేళ్ళ మీద, తరువాత మడమల మీద మార్చి మార్చి నిలుచుంటే.... కాలి కండరాలు బలంగా తయారవుతాయి. 

ఓ కుర్చీలో కూర్చుని, ప్రక్కనున్న కుర్చీలోని టవల్ కాళ్ళతో తీసికొనుటకు ప్రయత్నించుట కాళ్ళకు మంచి వ్యాయామము

 కాళ్ల క్రింద ఎత్తుగా రెండు దిండ్లు పెట్టుకొని, కాసేపు విశ్రాంతి తీసుకుంటూ పడుకొంటే.... కాళ్ళ నొప్పులు తగ్గుతాయి.


కొత్త చెప్పులు కొననివారు ఉండరు. అవి కరవడం అనుభవించని వారుండరు. అయితే  క్రొత్తగా కొన్న చెప్పులు కరుస్తుంటే.... పాదము మీద, చెప్పు కరుస్తున్నచోట  ఆముదము రాస్తే.... సరిపోతుంది.

 అరికాళ్ళ పగుళ్ళతో బాధపడేవారు. క్యాన్వాస్ షూ వాడితే, రెండు నెలల్లో పగుళ్ళు తగ్గిపోయి కాళ్ళు శుభ్రముగా ఉంటాయి. 

ఇలా కాళ్ళ పగుళ్లకు ఎన్నో రకాల అద్భుతమైన చిట్కాలున్నాయి. పాటించడమే తరువాయి..

చుండ్రును ఇలా తరిమికొట్టండి!

చుండ్రును ఇలా తరిమికొట్టండి!

తల దువ్వగానే తెల్లగా పొట్టు పొట్టు రాలుతుంది. తల మొత్తం దురద, ఎక్కువగా దువ్వినా, గోకినా తలలో మెల్లగా మంట, దానికి తోడు పుండ్లు ఏర్పడటం, కుదుళ్లను బలహీనం చేయడం. వీటి కారణంగా జుట్టు రాలిపోవడం, జుట్టు రంగు మారడం ఇలాంటి కారణాలు ఎన్నో వస్తున్నాయి కేవలం చుండ్రు అనే ఒకే ఒక సమస్య వల్ల. ఇంతగా ఇబ్బంది పెట్టే చుండ్రు చలికాలంలో మరింత పెరుగుతుంది. చాలామందికి ఈ చలికాలంలో చుండ్రు విశ్వరూపం దాలుస్తుందని అనడంలో సందేహమే లేదు. అయితే ఈ చుండ్రును సులువుగా అధిగమించే ఉపాయాలు ఉన్నాయి. వాటిని ఫాలో అయితే చుండ్రు చక్కగా పారిపోతుంది మీ నుండి.

జుట్టుకు నూనె పెట్టడం అందరూ చేస్తారు. అయితే చుండ్రు పోవాలంటే కొబ్బరి నూనె లేదా ఆలివ్ ఆయిల్ లేదా ఆల్మండ్ ఆయిల్ మూడింటిలో ఏదో ఒక నూనెను కప్పులో  తీసుకుని దాన్ని వేడి చేసి తలకు బాగా మసాజ్ చేయాలి. ఇలా మసాజ్ చేసిన తరువాత ఒక మందం టవల్ తీసుకుని వేడి నీళ్లలో ముంచి పిండి, దాన్ని తలకు చుట్టెయ్యాలి. వేడి తగ్గిపోయిన తరుణం తలకు చుట్టిన టవల్ ను విప్పేయాలి. ఇలా కొన్ని రోజులు చేస్తుంటే తల చుండ్రు క్రమంగా తగ్గిపోతుంది.

తల చుండ్రుకు మరొక చక్కని పరిష్కారం కోడిగుడ్డు. కోడిగుడ్డులో ఉండే సొనను తలకు పట్టించి ఆ తరువాత తల స్నానం చేయాలి. ఇలా చేస్తుంటే… కొన్ని వారాలలో క్రమంగా తలలో చుండ్రు తగ్గిపోతుంది.

కాసిన్ని వేడినీరు తీసుకుని అందులో కొబ్బరిపాలు, నిమ్మరసం వేయాలి. వాటిని బాగా మిక్స్ చేసి తలకు పట్టించాలి. అరగంట తరువాత గోరువెచ్చని నీటితో తలస్నానం చేయాలి. ఇలా చేస్తున్నా కూడా చుండ్రు తగ్గిపోతుంది.

తలలో చుండ్రు తగ్గించుకోవడానికి ఎన్ని మార్గాలు ఫాలో అయినా దానికి ఆహారం కూడా ఒక పరిష్కారంగా పనిచేస్తుంది. విటమిన్ బి, సి, ఇ లు పుష్కలంగా కలిగిన ఆహారాన్ని తీసుకుంటే తలలో చుండ్రును అరికట్టవచ్చు.

మెంతి ఆకు చుండ్రుకు చక్కని పరిష్కారం. మెంతి ఆకులను పేస్ట్ చేసి జుట్టుకు పట్టించి ఒక పావుగంట అలాగే ఉంచి, ఆ తరువాత తల స్నానం చేయాలి. ఇలా చేస్తుంటే… చుండ్రు మెల్లగా తగ్గుముఖం పడుతుంది.

తల చుండ్రుకు మరొక శక్తివంతమైన టిప్ ఉంది. వేడినీటిలో వెనిగర్ వేయాలి. దీన్ని జుట్టుకు పట్టించి రాత్రంతా అలాగే వదిలేయాలి. మరుసటిరోజు ఎగ్ ఆధారిత షాంపూ తో తల స్నానం చేయాలి. ఇలా చేస్తుంటే చుండ్రు సమస్య పరిష్కరమవుతుంది. 

అన్నిటికంటే ముఖ్యంగా చుండ్రు ఉన్నవారు వాడే దువ్వెనలు, తువాళ్ళు, దిండు కవర్లు మొదలైనవి ఎప్పటికప్పుడు శుభ్రం చేసుకుని మారుస్తూ ఉండాలి.  జుట్టు చల్లగా ఉన్నట్టే దువ్వడం, జడ వేయడం వంటివి చేయకూడదు. ఇవన్నీ పాటిస్తూ పైన చిట్కాలు ఫాలో అయితే  చుండ్రును తగ్గించేసుకోవచ్చు.

ఎంతందంగా ఉన్నావే ఎవరే నువ్వు?? అని సినిమాలలో హీరో పాట పాడితే.. హీరోయిన్ తన అందాన్ని చూసుకుంటూ మురిసిపోతుంది. ఆమె అందం కూడా నిజంగానే చూపరులను ఆకట్టుకుంటూ మెరుస్తూ ఉంటుంది. హీరోయిన్లు తాము అందంగా కనిపించడానికి పడని పాట్లు ఉండవంటే నమ్మండి. చర్మాన్ని, శరీర ఆకారాన్ని ఎప్పటికప్పుడు కాపాడుకుంటేనే వారికి అవకాశాలు వచ్చేది. అయితే అందమంటే హీరోయిన్లే కాదు. సాధారణ అమ్మాయిలు కూడా హీరోయిన్ అంత అందంగా ఉండచ్చు. సహజంగానే కాస్త ఖరీదైన బట్టలు వేసుకుని, ఖరీదైన వస్తువులు పెట్టుకుని, మంచి మేకప్ వేస్తే ప్రతి అమ్మాయీ హీరోయిన్ లాగే ఉంటుంది. కానీ… ఈ పూతలు పూయడం, ట్రీట్మెంట్ లు ఇవ్వడం వంటివి వదిలేసి సహజంగా అందంగా మెరిసిపోతే ఎంత బావుంటుంది కదా…

ఎలాగంటే..ఇదిగో ఇలా…


◆విటమిన్ ఎ ను పుష్కలంగా కలిగి ఉండి, కళ్ళ ఆరోగ్యాన్ని కాపాడే దుంప  కూరగాయ క్యారెట్. ఇది సహజంగానే ఆకర్షణగా ఉంటుంది. ఈ క్యారెట్ ను కూరల్లోనూ, స్వీట్ చేయడానికి, జ్యుస్ చేసుకుని తాగడానికి, మరికొందరు నేరుగా డైటింగ్ పేరుతో తినడానికి ఎక్కువగా ఉపయోగిస్తారు. అయితే ఈ క్యారెట్ ను ఇలా కాకుండా విభిన్నంగా ఉపయోగిస్తే కాంతులీనే చర్మం సొంతమవుతుంది.


క్యారెట్ ను బాగా ఉడికించాలి. ఆ తరువాత బాగా మెదిపి గుజ్జులాగా చేయాలి. ఈ గుజ్జును శరీరమంతా పట్టించి అరగంట సేపు ఆరనివ్వాలి. ఈ గుజ్జు బాగా ఆరిన తరువాత కొన్ని పాలు తీసుకుని ఈ ఎండిన క్యారెట్ గుజ్జుమీద కొద్ధికొద్దిగా పాలు వేసి మర్దనా చేస్తూ క్యారెట్ గుజ్జును తొలగించాలి. దీని తరువాత సాధారణంగా స్నానం చేయాలి. స్నానానికి ఎలాంటి సోప్ ఉపయోగించకూడదు. ఇలా చేస్తుంటే చర్మం మృదువుగా మారి మంచి రంగులోకి వస్తుంది.


◆కొరియన్ స్కిన్..

బఠానీ పువ్వులు ( బఠానీ కాయలు కాయడానికి ముందు పువ్వులు కాస్తాయి) తీసుకుని వాటిని ఎండబెట్టి పొడి చేయాలి, ఓట్స్ పొడి తీసుకోవాలి, ఇందులో పన్నీరు కలిపి మెత్తగా గుజ్జులాగా చేయాలి. దీన్ని శరీరమంతా పట్టించి బాగా ఆరిన తరువాత స్నానం చేయాలి. ఇలా చేస్తే రబ్బరు బొమ్మలగా కొరియన్ స్కిన్ సొంతమవుతుంది.


◆అందరికీ అందుబాటులో దొరికేది బొప్పాయి కాయ.  బాగా పండిన బొప్పాయి కాయను తీసుకుని పొట్టు తీసేసి బాగా మెదిపి గుజ్జు చేయాలి. బొప్పాయి కాయ గుజ్జును శరీరమంతా పట్టించి ఆరిపోయిన తరువాత కడిగేయాలి. ఇలా చేస్తుంటే… క్రమంగా చర్మంలో జీవం పెరుగుతుంది. చర్మం మీద మచ్చలు, మంగు, మొటిమల తాలూకూ గుర్తులు వంటివి అన్నీ పోయి చర్మం స్పష్టంగా తయారవుతుంది.


◆నారింజ కాయ గురించి తెలియనిది ఎవరికి?? తింటాం తొక్కలు పడేస్తాం. అయితే ఈ నారింజ తొక్కలను కూడా ఉపాధి వనరుగా మార్చేసుకున్నాయి నేటి వ్యాపార పోకడలు. నారింజకాయ తొక్కను ఎండబెట్టి పొడిచేసి నిలవచేసుకోవాలి. నారింజ తొక్క పొడి, ఓట్స్ పొడి, పాలమీగడ మూడింటిని సమాన భాగాలుగా తీసుకుని బాగా కలిపి శరీరమంతా పట్టించాలి. సుమారు 15 నుండి 20 నిమిషాల పాటు అలాగే ఉంచాలి. ఆ తరువాత స్నానం చేయాలి. ఇలా చేస్తే శరీర చర్మం నునుపుగా, కాంతివంతంగా తయారవుతుంది.


పై చిట్కాలు పాటిస్తే హీరోయిన్ లాగా మీరూ తయారవుతారు అందంగానూ… మెరిసిపోతూనూ…

కళ్ళ చుట్టూ డార్క్ సర్కిల్స్ రహస్యం.. నివారణోపాయం!

కళ్ళ చుట్టూ డార్క్ సర్కిల్స్ రహస్యం.. నివారణోపాయం!

మహిళల ముఖం ఎంత అందంగా ఉన్నా కళ్ళ చుట్టూ నల్లని వలయాలు ఉండటం వల్ల చెప్పలేనంత చిరాకు, విసుగు మాత్రమే కాకుండా ముఖారవిందాన్ని మొత్తం పాడు చేస్తుంటాయి. ఈ నల్లని వలయాలు పోగొట్టుకోవాలని మహిళలు చేసే ప్రయత్నాల గురించి ఎంత చెప్పినా తక్కువే… అయితే చేసే పని ఏదైనా దానికి తగినట్టు చేస్తున్నామా లేదా అనేది ఎంతో ముఖ్యం. సమస్య ఏమిటో తెలియకుండా వైద్యుడు మందు ఇవ్వడు అన్నట్టు.. సమస్యకు కారణం తెలియకుండా కనిపించిన చిట్కా పాటించడం కూడా తప్పే… కళ్ళ చుట్టూ వచ్చే నల్లని వలయాలకు కారణం ఏమిటి?? ఎందుకొస్తున్నాయి ఈ నల్లని వలయాలు.. ఈ ప్రశ్నలకు సమాధానం తెలుసుకోవాలి ముందు.

కళ్ళచుట్టూ నల్లని వలయాలకు కారణాలు:-

కళ్ళు, ముక్కు, పెదవులు ఈ అవయవాల చుట్టూ ఉండే చర్మం సహజంగానే సున్నితంగా ఉంటుంది. మరీ ముఖ్యంగా కళ్ళ కింద చర్మం ఎక్కువ సున్నితంగా ఉంటుంది. ఈ అవయవాల చుట్టూ ఉన్న ప్రాంతాలలో సబ్ క్యుటేనియస్ ఫ్యాట్ అనే పదార్థం ఉంటుంది. విపరీతంగా అలసట కలిగించే పనులు చేసేవారికి, పోషకాహార లోపంతో బాధపడేవారికి, రక్తహీనత కలవారికి, కళ్ళు, ముక్కు, పెదవుల ప్రాంతంలో ఉండే  ఈ పదార్థం తగ్గిపోయి అక్కడి చర్మం కాస్త లోపలికి పోతుంది. అయితే… కళ్ళ చుట్టూ ఉండే చర్మం మరింత సున్నితం కాబట్టి అక్కడి చర్మం చాలా తొందరగా ప్రభావానికి గురవుతుంది. ఫలితంగా కళ్ళచుట్టూ చర్మం నల్లబడుతుంది. ఇదే నల్లని వలయాలుగా మారుతుంది. 

ఈ కారణం తెలుసుకోకుండా పై పూతగా చర్మానికి చెప్పలేనని క్రీమ్ లు ఉపయోగిస్తారు మహిళలు. కానీ దీనికి పాటించాల్సిన పద్ధతులు వేరుగా ఉంటాయి…

దీనికోసం రెండు రకాల పద్ధతులు పాటించాలి.. ఒకటి లైఫ్ స్టైల్.. రెండు.. నాచురల్ టిప్స్..

లైఫ్ స్టైల్…

లైఫ్ స్టైల్ అంటే తీసుకునే ఆహారం, అలవాట్లు మొదలైనవాటిలో మార్పు చేర్పులు చేసుకోవడం.

తీసుకునే ఆహారంలో విటమిన్ ఎ,బి,సి పుష్కలంగా ఉండేలా చూసుకోవాలి.

అలసట కలిగినప్పుడు విశ్రాంతి తీసుకోవాలి. అంతేకానీ అలసట కలుగుతున్నా అలాగే పని చేయకూడదు.

సమయానికి ఆహారం తీసుకోవాలి. అలాగే సమయానికి నిద్ర కూడా ఎంతో అవసరం. రోజులో తగినంత నిద్ర లేకపోతే కళ్ళు అలసిపోతాయి. మరీ ముఖ్యంగా సిస్టం ల ముందు పనిచేసేవారు స్క్రీన్ లైటింగ్ వల్ల కళ్ళ సమస్యలు ఎదుర్కొనే అవకాశం ఎక్కువ ఉంటుంది. కళ్ళను చల్లని నీటితో అప్పుడప్పుడు కడగాలి. చేతులను రుద్దుకుని అందులో పుట్టే వేడిని సున్నితంగా కళ్ళకు తగిలేలా తుడవాలి. వీలైనంత ఎక్కువగా స్క్రీన్ నుండి దృష్టిని మళ్లించాలి. 

శరీరానికి తగినంత వ్యాయామం ఉంటే శరీరం అలసిపోవడం వల్ల నిద్ర కూడా బాగా వస్తుంది. కాబట్టి వ్యాయామం చేయాలి.

చిట్కాలు..

టీ డికాక్షన్ లో కాటన్ ముంచి తరువాత కాస్త పిండేసే తడిగా ఉన్న  ఆ కాటన్ ను కళ్ళ మీద ఉంచుకోవాలి. ఇలా చేయడం వల్ల మంచి ఫలితం ఉంటుంది.

ఒక స్పూన్ ఆల్మండ్ ఆయిల్ లో  సగం స్పూన్ నిమ్మరసం కలపాలి. ఈ మిశ్రమాన్ని ప్రతిరోజూ రాత్రి పడుకునేముందు కళ్ళచుట్టూ రాసుకోవాలి. 

ప్రతిరోజూ ఉదయం నిద్రలేవగానే టమాటా రసం కొద్దిగా, నిమ్మరసం కొద్దిగా తీసుకోవాలి. ఇవి రెండూ సమానంగా తీసుకుని మిక్స్ చేయాలి. ఈ మిశ్రమాన్ని కళ్ళ చుట్టూ రాసి ఆరిన తరువాత చల్లని నీటితో కడగాలిమ్ ఇలా క్రమం తప్పకుండా చేస్తే మంచి ఫలితం ఉంటుంది.

విటమిన్ ఇ ఆయిల్ ను కళ్ళ కింద రాస్తున్నా మంచి ఫలితం ఉంటుంది.

పై రెండు విధానాలు పాటిస్తే తొందరలోనే కళ్ళచుట్టూ నల్లని వలయాలు మాయమైపోతాయ్..

వెంట్రుకలు రాగి రంగులోకి మారుతున్నాయా?? ఇదిగో మీకోసమే ఇది..

వెంట్రుకలు రాగి రంగులోకి మారుతున్నాయా?? ఇదిగో మీకోసమే ఇది..


అమ్మాయిలకు వెంట్రుకలు అంటే ప్రాణం. జుట్టు పొడవుగా పెంచుకోవాలని అందరూ అనుకుంటారు. ఒకప్పుడు మహిళలకు చాలమంచి కేశసంపద ఉండేది. అయితే రాను రాను అది తగ్గిపోతోంది. జుట్టు తెల్లబడటం, రాగి రంగులోకి మారడం, పలుచగా మారిపోవడం వంటి సమస్యలు మహిళలను వెంటాడుతుంటాయి. 


వెంట్రుకలు పలుచగా వున్న స్త్రీలు వారమునకు రెండుసార్లు తల స్నానం చెయ్యాలి. రాత్రులు తేలికగా నూనె వ్రాసుకొని అలాగే వదిలేయవలెను. అప్పుడప్పుడు కొబ్బరి నుండే వేడి చేసి, తలకు మర్దించాలి. వెంట్రుకలు పలుచదనం పోయి దృఢంగా తయారవడానికి  పౌష్టిక ఆహారము, బి-కాంప్లెక్సు  సమృద్ధిగా తీసుకోవాలి. . కుంకుడుకాయలు రాత్రి నాన పెట్టి, ఉదయము నానిన కుంకుడుకాయలు ఉడికించి ఆ నీటితో  తలంటుకోవాలి.  


పోషకాహారముతోనే అందమైన జుట్టు సొంతమవుతుంది. ముఖ్యంగా జుట్టు రాగి రంగులోకి మారడం, వెంట్రుకలు రాలిపోవడం మొదలైన సమస్యలకు వెంట్రుకలు నల్లగా, దృఢముగా వుండటానికి పైపై మెఱుగులు ప్రయోజనాన్ని ఇవ్వవు. అందుకే పౌష్టికాహారము తీసుకొనుటలో శ్రద్ధ అధికముగా చూపాలి  గుడ్లు, చేప మాంసము, ఆకుకూరలు,  పళ్ళు మొదలైనవి ఎక్కువగా తీసుకోవాలి!


వెంట్రుకలు "కెరోటిన్” అనే 'మాంసకృత్తు'ల వలన తయారౌతాయి వెంట్రుకలు నల్లగా, నిగనిగలాడాలంటే....' ఆమ్లతైలము' ఉపయోగించడం మంచిది. 


తలంటు పోసుకోవడానికి ఒక గంట ముందుగా ఆమ్లతైలము బాగా దట్టముగా పట్టించాలి. ఆ తరువాత నిమ్మరసమ తీసుకొని, తలకు మర్దన చేయాలి. ఆ తరువాత  ఆరనిచ్చి, సీకాయ లేక కుంకుడు కాయతో తలంటు పోసుకోవాలి.  దీనివల్ల కొంత కాలానికి వెంట్రుకలు నల్లగా నిగనిగలాడే స్థితికి మారుతాయి.  షాంపూ లాంటి 'కెమికలైజ్డ్' పదార్థాలు ఉపయోగించకూడదు.  అలాగే ఐరన్, విటమిన్ బి వంటివి ఆహారంలో పుష్కలంగా ఉండేలా చూసుకోవాలి.


రాగిరంగు వెంట్రుకలు నల్లబడటానికి హెయిర్ ఆయిల్ ఎలా చేసుకోవాలంటే..


 

250 గ్రా॥ల "మస్టర్డ్ ఆయిల్" (Mustard oil = ఆవాల నూనె)" ను మరగబెట్టాలి. ఈ నూనె మరిగేటప్పుడు 60 గ్రా॥ల గోరింటాకు తైలాన్ని వేసి, బాగా కలియబెట్టి, బాగా కాచాలి. తరువాత వడగట్టి, సీసాలో పోసుకొని, కొద్ది రోజులు నిలువ వుంచాలి. వెంటనే వాడకూడదు. కొన్నిరోజుల తరువాత ఈ నూనెను తలనూనెగా ఉపయోగిస్తూ వుంటే . మంచి ఫలితాలు కన్పిస్తాయి. ఈ నూనెను ఒక్కసారే ఎక్కువగా చేసుకోకూడదు. కొంచెం కొంచెం చేసుకుని వాడుకుంటూ ఉంటే మంచిది.


అలాగే జుట్టు సంరక్షణకు మరికొన్ని సహజమైన మార్గాలు..


మెత్తగా దంచిన ఉసిరికాయ పై చెక్కులను రాత్రిపూట నీటిలో వేసి, నానపెట్టి వుంచాలి. ఉదయమే ఆ నీటిని తలకు పట్టించి, కొద్దిసేపు ఆరనిచ్చి, ఆ తరువాత తలకు కొబ్బరి నూనె వ్రాసుకోవాలి. ఈ విధానము వలన వెంట్రుకలు నల్లగా మారతాయి.


పైన చెప్పుకున్నట్టే ఉసిరికాయ  పై తొక్కను గిన్నెలో వేసి, అందులో "గుంటగలిజేరు" రసము పోసి, ఏడురోజులు నానబెట్టాలి. ఆ తదుపరి ఆ తొక్కలను ఎండించి, చూర్ణముచేసి, పూటకు పావుతులము(2.5grms) చొప్పున తేనెలో కలిపి తింటూవుంటే  వెంట్రుకలు తుమ్మెద రెక్కల్లా నల్లబడతాయి. ఇది చాలా పవర్ఫుల్ గా పనిచేస్తుంది.


మెంతి ఆకులు బాగా నూరి, శిరోజాలకు రాత్రి పడుకొనే ముందు పట్టించి, ఉదయము తల స్నానము చేస్తే వెంట్రుకలు  మృదువుగా మారతాయి.


 రేగు చెట్టు ఆకులు బాగా నూరి, తలకు పట్టించి, 1-2 గంటలు వుంచి, తల స్నానము చేస్తే .. వెంట్రుకలు బాగా పెరిగి, పట్టులా మృదువుగా వుంటాయి.


ప్రతిరోజూ కొబ్బరినూనె క్రమము తప్పకుండా జుట్టుకు రాస్తూవుంటే..... వెంట్రుకల  కుదుళ్ళు గట్టిపడతాయి. వెంట్రుకలు తుమ్మెద రెక్కల్లా నల్లగా వుంటాయి. బాగా పెరుగుతాయి. చాలా మృదువుగా కూడా వుంటాయి.


తలకు నూనె అవసరం లేదు అనే మాట చాలామంది చెబుతారు. కానీ జుట్టు రఫ్ గా మారిపోతుంది. అందుకే జుట్టుకు నూనె పెట్టడం అవసరం.

అమ్మాయిలకు తులసితో అద్భుతమైన అయిదు ప్రయోజనాలు ఇవిగో...


యాంటీ ఏజింగ్ లక్షణాలు


తులసిలో యాంటీఆక్సిడెంట్స్‌లో సమృద్ధిగా ఉంటాయి. ఇది  యాంటీ ఏజింగ్ స్కిన్‌కేర్ రొటీన్‌కు అద్భుతమైన ప్రత్యామ్నాయంగా  ఉంటుంది.  వృద్ధాప్య ప్రక్రియను వేగవంతం చేసే ఫ్రీ రాడికల్స్ నుండి చర్మం దెబ్బతినకుండా నిరోధించడంలో తులసి సహాయపడుతుంది.  ఇందులోని అధిక యాంటీఆక్సిడెంట్ కంటెంట్ చర్మం మీద వచ్చే వాపు మరియు ఎరుపును తగ్గించడంలో కూడా సహాయపడుతుంది, ఈ రెండూ వృద్ధాప్యం రావడానికి దోహదం చేస్తాయి.  తులసి రసం లేదా నూనెతో చర్మ సంరక్షణ ఉత్పత్తులను ఉపయోగించడం ద్వారా చర్మాన్ని యవ్వనంగా  ఆరోగ్యంగా ఉంచుకోవచ్చు. 


మొటిమల చికిత్స


తులసి మొక్క సహజ యాంటీ బాక్టీరియల్ మరియు యాంటీ ఇన్ఫ్లమేటరీ లక్షణాలను కలిగి ఉంటుంది.  ఇది మొటిమలకు సమర్థవంతమైన చికిత్స చేస్తుంది.  ఇందులో ఉన్న  యాంటీ బాక్టీరియల్ లక్షణాల కారణంగా, ఇది మొటిమలకు కారణమయ్యే క్రిములను తొలగించడంలో సహాయపడుతుంది. అంతేకాకుండ మొటిమలు వచ్చినప్పుడు మొటిమల తాలూకూ నొప్పి, మంట తగ్గించడానికి, చర్మ  రంధ్రాలను అన్‌ లాగ్ చేయడంలో సహాయపడుతుంది. చర్మ రంధ్రాలలో దుమ్ము, ధూళి, మురికి మొదలైనవి చేరడం మొటిమలకు దోహదపడే కారకాలు.  తులసిని రోజులో చేర్చడం ద్వారా మొటిమలను క్లియర్ చేయడంలో సహాయపడుతుంది. అలాగే మళ్ళీ మొటిమలు రాకుండా ఇది ప్రొటెక్షన్ ఇస్తుంది.

చిక్కులు పడే జుట్టుకు చక్కని పరిష్కారాలు!

చిక్కులు పడే జుట్టుకు చక్కని పరిష్కారాలు!


అమ్మాయిలకు తమ జుట్టు అంటే చాలా ఇష్టం. పొడవాటి శిరోజాలు కావాలని అనుకోని మహిళ ఉండదు. అయితే జుట్టు ఆరోగ్యకరంగా పెరగడం, ఒత్తుగా, పట్టు కుచ్చులా ఉండటం చాలా కొద్దిమందిలోనే కనబడుతుంది. శారీరక అందాన్ని మరించ పెంచే అంశంలో జుట్టు ప్రధాన పాత్ర పోషిస్తుంది. అందుకే జుట్టు సంరక్షణ విషయంలో దానిని జాగ్రత్తగా చూసుకోవడం చాలా అవసరం.  అయితే, చాలా తొందరగా చిక్కుబడే జుట్టుతో చెప్పలేనంత నరకం అనుభవిస్తుంటారు ఎంతోమంది. కొందరిలో చిక్కుబడిన జుట్టును విడదీయడం చాలా శ్రమతో కూడుకున్న పనిగా ఉంటుంది.  అలాంటి జుట్టును సరిగ్గా చిక్కు తీయకపోతే, అది హెయిర్ డ్యామేజ్ కు, వెంట్రుకలు విరిగిపోవడానికి, జుట్టు రాలిపోవడానికి కారణం అవుతుంది. అందువల్ల జుట్టుకు ఏమాత్రం హాని కలిగించకుండా చిక్కు తీయడం ఎంతో నేర్పుతో కూడుకున్నది. ఎక్కువ చిక్కుబడిపోయే జుట్టును తేలికగా ఆరోగ్యంగా చిక్కు తీయడానికి కొన్ని టిప్స్ ఇవే… 

వెడల్పాటి పంటి దువ్వెన 


ఎక్కువ హెయిర్ ఫాల్ లేకుండా సులువుగా చిక్కు తీయడానికి మొదటి మార్గం పర్ఫెక్ట్ దువ్వెన. వెడల్పాటి పళ్ళు కలిగిన దువ్వెన వాడి చిక్కును సులువుగా తీయవచ్చు. 

చిక్కు మీద చమ్మక్:


లీవ్-ఇన్ కండీషనర్ లేదా డిటాంగ్లింగ్ స్ప్రే వంటి వాటిని ఉపయోగించడం వల్ల  చిక్కుబడిన జుట్టును చాలా సులువుగా తీసేయచ్చు. వీటిని స్ప్రే చేసి పెద్ద పళ్ళ దువ్వెనతో దువ్వితే సరిపోతుంది. 

వేళ్లను ఉపయోగించవచ్చు: దువ్వెన లేదా బ్రష్‌ని చిక్కు తీయడానికి ఉపయోగించే ముందు చిక్కుముడులను వేరు చేయడానికి  జుట్టును చేతి వేళ్ళతో చిక్కులు విడదీయాలి.  


పాయలుగా విడదీయడం: జుట్టు బాగా చిక్కులుగా ఉన్నప్పుడు దువ్వెనతో పట్టి లాగకుండా  జుట్టును చిన్న పాయలుగా విడదీసి మెల్లిగా చిక్కు తీయాలి.  

సున్నితంగా ఉండాలి: చిక్కులు విడదీసేటప్పుడు సున్నితంగా ఉండాలి. చిక్కు చాలా ఎక్కువ ఉందని, అది సులువుగా రావడం లేదని చిరాకు, కోపం అసహనంతో జుట్టును పట్టి లాగకూడదు. 

చివర్ల నుండి చిట్కా: 


జుట్టు చిక్కులు తీసేటపుడు పై నుండి కిందకు దువ్వకుండా మొదట జుట్టు కింద భాగం దువ్వి చిక్కులు తీసుకోవాలి. ఆ తరువాత పైన నుండి కిందకు దువ్వాలి

జుట్టు తడిగా చిక్కులు తీయొద్దు: 


చాలామంది జుట్టు తడిగా ఉండగానే జుట్టు లాగడం, దువ్వడం చేస్తుంటారు. ఇది చిక్కులు ఎక్కువ కావడానికి కారణం అవుతుంది. అందుకే జుట్టు పూర్తిగా ఆరిన తరువాతే చిక్కులు తీయాలి.


మరొక విషయం ఏమిటంటే ఒత్తిడి ఎక్కువగా ఉన్నా, కోపం చిరాకు అసహనం వంటివి ఉన్నా జుట్టు ఎక్కువగా  చిక్కులు పడుతుంది. వీలైనవరకు ఇలాంటి వాటికి దూరంగా ఉండి ప్రశాంతగా ఉండటానికి ప్రయత్నించండి.

వీపు భాగం నల్లగా.. ఎబ్బెట్టుగా ఉందా?? ఇలా చేస్తే నలుపు పోతుంది!

వీపు భాగం నల్లగా.. ఎబ్బెట్టుగా ఉందా?? ఇలా చేస్తే నలుపు పోతుంది!

అందంగా కనిపించాలని కోరుకోకుండా ఎవరూ ఉండరు. ఖరీదైన జీవితం కలిగిన వారి నుండి, సాధారణ కుటుంబాల్లో అమ్మాయిల వరకు అందరూ అందంగా తయారవడానికి ఆసక్తి చూపిస్తారు. ఇప్పటి ఫాషన్ ప్రపంచంలో సాధారణ అమ్మాయిలకు కూడా సరిపోయేలా తక్కువ ధరకు లభించేలా ఎన్నో రకాల మోడల్స్ అందుబాటులో ఉంటున్నాయి. వీటిని వేసుకోవడానికి చాలా ఆసక్తి చూపిస్తారు. అలాంటి డ్రెస్సులలో వీపు భాగం ఎక్పోజ్ అయ్యేవిధంగా ఉండే దుస్తులు ఉంటున్నాయి. చీరకట్టు మహిళలు వివిధ రకాల డిజైనింగ్ బ్లౌజులు వేసుకోవడం నుండి, ఎన్నో రకాల దుస్తులు ఇందులోకే వస్తాయి.

 అయితే..  చాలామంది వీపు భాగం గురించి మొదటి నుండి అంత శ్రద్ధ పెట్టరు. ఈ కారణంగా వీపు భాగం చాలామందికి నల్లగా మారిపోయి ఉంటుంది. ఇలాంటి వారు ఫ్యాషన్ దుస్తులు వేసుకోవాలంటే కాస్త ఇబ్బంది పడతారు. వీపుకు ఉన్న నలుపు పోవడానికి కొన్ని చిట్కాలు ఉన్నాయి.. 

మన ఇంట్లో ఎప్పుడూ నిల్వ ఉండేవాటిలో నిమ్మకాయ కూడా ఒకటి. నోరు బాగలేనప్పుడు కాస్త పుల్లపుల్లగా బాగుంటుందని, నీరసం అనిపించినప్పుడు ఉత్సాహం ఇస్తుందని, వేసవి తాపాన్ని తగ్గిస్తుందని, పులిహోర కలుపుకోవాలని.. ఇలా కారణాలు ఏమైనా నిమ్మకాయను మనకు ఉన్న లింకు లంకె బిందె అంత పెద్దది. అలాంటి నిమ్మకాయను ఉపయోగించి వీపు భాగంలో నలుపును మాయం చేయొచ్చు.. పార్లర్ లలో  వేలాది రూపాయలు ఖర్చు పెట్టి చేయించుకుని ట్రీట్మెంట్ కు ధీటుగా నిమ్మకాయంతో ఇంట్లోనే మ్యాజిక్ చేయచ్చు ఇలా..

నిమ్మకాయ, కలబంద 

నిమ్మకాయ మరియు కలబందతో వీపు  తెల్లబడటానికి మంచి చిట్కా ఉంది.  ఇందుకోసం ముందుగా ఒక గిన్నెలో రెండు నిమ్మకాయల రసాన్ని పిండాలి. దీని తర్వాత దానికి రెండు టేబుల్ స్పూన్ల అలోవెరా జెల్ కలపాలి. తాజా కలబంద ఉంటే అది ఉపయోగించవచ్చు. రెండింటినీ మిక్స్ చేసి వీపుపై బాగా మసాజ్ చేయాలి. కొంత సమయం తర్వాత కడిగేయాలి.

నిమ్మకాయ సెనగపిండి

సెనగపిండి మన వంటింట్లో ఎప్పుడూ ఉంటుంది. నిమ్మరసానికి దీన్ని జతచేయడం వల్ల మంచి ఫలితం పొందవచ్చు. ఇందుకోసం ఒక టేబుల్‌స్పూన్ శెనగపిండిని ఒక గిన్నెలోకి తీసుకోవాలి. అందులో ఒక నిమ్మకాయ రసాన్ని పిండాలి. దానికి రెండు చెంచాల పెరుగు, ఒక చెంచా రోజ్ వాటర్ కలపండి. ఇప్పుడు వీపుపై అప్లై చేసి ఐదు నిమిషాల పాటు అలాగే ఉంచాలి. మెల్లిగా  స్క్రబ్ చేస్తూ దీన్ని తొలగించాలి.

నిమ్మకాయ-ఎర్రకందిపప్పు

ఎర్రకందిపప్పును బ్యూటీ చిట్కాలలో బాగా వాడుతారు. దీన్ని నిమ్మకాయంతో కలిపి మంచి పలితాన్ని రాబట్టుకోవచ్చు. ముందుగా మూడు టేబుల్ స్పూన్ల ఎర్రకందిపప్పు పొడిని ఒక గిన్నెలో తీసుకోవాలి. దానికి రెండు టేబుల్ స్పూన్ల నిమ్మరసం కలపండి. ఒక చిన్న చెంచా కలబంద, పెరుగు జోడించాలి. అన్నీ బాగా కలిపిన తర్వాత వీపుపై అప్లై చేసి బాగా ఆరనివ్వాలి. స్క్రబ్బింగ్ చేసిన తర్వాత శుభ్రం చేసుకోవాలి.

నిమ్మరసం-బియ్యం పిండి

బియ్యపు పిండిని వీపు శుభ్రం చేయడానికి కూడా ఉపయోగించవచ్చు , ముందుగా ఒక గిన్నెలో బియ్యప్పిండిని తీసుకొని దానికి రెండు చెంచాల పెరుగు వేయండి. దానిపై నిమ్మరసం వేసి బాగా కలపాలి. ఈ బియ్యం పిండి ప్యాక్‌ని వీపు భాగంలో అప్లై చేసి 10 నిమిషాలు అలాగే ఉంచాలి. ఆ తర్వాత కడిగేయాలి.

ఈ టిప్స్ పాటిస్తే వీపు భాగంలో ఉన్న నలుపు పోతుంది. కేవలం వీపు బాగంలోనే కాదు. మోచేతులు, మోకాళ్ళు, మెడ, పెదవుల చుట్టూ ఉన్న భాగం.. ఇలా అన్ని ప్రాంతాలలో వీటిని ఉపయోగించచ్చు.

 తర్వాత, ఒక చిన్న ప్లాస్టిక్, లేదా గాజు సీసా  తీసుకుని, దానిపై కాటన్ క్లాత్ వేసి వడగట్టుకోవాలి. దీన్ని డబల్ ఫిల్టర్ చేస్తే నూనె చాలా స్వచ్ఛంగా కనిపిస్తుంది. ఇక ఇంట్లోనే హెర్బల్ ఆయిల్ రెడి అయినట్టు. ఇది మీకు వాసన వస్తుంది అనిపిస్తే దీంట్లొకి రోజ్ మేరీ ఎసెంటియల్ ఆయిల్ లేదా లావెండర్, రోజ్ ఇలా ఏదైనా వాడచ్చు. ఈ ఆయిల్స్ కలపడం వల్ల ఈ నూనె జుట్టుకు అప్లై చేసినప్పుడు తలలో రక్తప్రసరణ మెరుగ్గా ఉంటుంది. వారానికి ఒకసారి తలకు బాగా మసాజ్ చేసి ఆ తరువాత గోరువెచ్చని నీటితో.. గాఢత లేని షాంపూతో తలస్నానం చేయాలి. ఇలా చేస్తుంటే జుట్టు ఎంతో అద్భుతంగా పెరుగుతుంది.

ముఖచర్మం మీద రంధ్రాలు పోవాలంటే ఇవి ఫాలో అవ్వండి!

ముఖం మీద ఎలాంటి మచ్చలు, రంధ్రాలు లేకుండా చర్మం యవ్వనంగా కనిపిస్తూ ఉండాలని అమ్మాయిలందరి ఆశ. కానీ మొటిమలు, మచ్చలు ఏర్పడటం, ముఖం మీద గుంటలు, రంధ్రాలు ఏర్పడటం చాలామంది విషయంలో జరుగుతుంది. ఓ హీరోయిన్ లానో, మోడల్ లానో ముఖం మెరిసిపోవాలని అనుకునేవారు అసలు ముఖం మీద మచ్చలు, రంధ్రాలు ఎందుకు వస్తున్నాయో తెలుసుకోవడం ముఖ్యం. సాధారణంగా ముఖం మీద, ముఖ్యంగా ముక్కు, నుదురు, బుగ్గలపై పెద్ద పెద్ద రంధ్రాలు కనిపిస్తాయి. వీటిని ఓపెన్ పోర్స్ అని అంటుంటారు. ఇలాంటివి ఉన్న వారి చర్మం కఠినంగా కాస్త ఎబ్బెట్టుగా అనిపిస్తూ ఉంటుంది. వీటిని పోగొట్టుకోవడానికి చాలా ప్రయత్నాలు చేసి విసిగిపోతుంటారు. 

కొందరిలో ఇవి జన్యు పరమైన కారణాల వల్ల వస్తే.. మరికొందరిలో  వయస్సు పెరిగే కొద్దీ,  చర్మం స్థితిస్థాపకత, కొల్లాజెన్‌ను ఉత్పత్తి  కోల్పోతుంది, దీని వలన రంధ్రాలు పెద్దవిగా కనిపిస్తాయి. సూర్యరశ్మికి  ఎక్కువ గురికావడం కూడా చర్మానికి హాని కలిగిస్తుంది.  చర్మాన్ని సరిగ్గా శుభ్రపరచకపోవడం లేదా కఠినమైన ఉత్పత్తులను ఉపయోగించడం వంటి చర్యల వల్ల కూడా రంధ్రాలు ఏర్పడుతాయి. మహిళల  శరీరంలో హార్మోన్లలో హెచ్చుతగ్గులు ముఖం మీద నూనె  ఉత్పత్తి పెరగడానికి కారణం అవుతుంది. ఈ నూనెలే.. ముఖం మీద పెద్ద రంధ్రాలకు  దారితీస్తుంది. వీటిని పరిష్కరించుకోవాలంటే ఇలా చెయ్యాలి.

చుండ్రును తగ్గించే తేలికైన ఉపాయాలు

చుండ్రును తగ్గించే తేలికైన ఉపాయాలు

ఇప్పుడున్న పొల్యూషన్ వల్ల రోజు రోజుకి చుండ్రు సమస్యలు ఎక్కువైపోతున్నాయి . చుండ్రు వల్ల జుట్టు రాలిపోవటం, పేలు రావడం, దురద లాంటివి మొదలవుతాయి. ఈ సమస్యను అరికట్టాలంటే చిన్న చిన్న చిట్కాలు చేయాల్సిఉంటుంది . అవేంటో చూసేద్దాం రండి ..

* వేపాకులతో చుండ్రును తేలిగ్గా తగ్గించుకోవచ్చు. దురదను తగ్గించడమే కాదు.. చుండ్రు పెరగడానికి కారణమయ్యే ఫంగస్‌ పెరుగుదలను కూడా వేపాకు అరికడుతుంది. రెండు గుపిళ్ల నిండుగా వేపాకు, కొద్దిగా మందారకు,కొద్దిగా కలబంద గుజ్జు ఈ మూడింటిని మిక్సీ లో మెత్తగా గ్రైండ్ చేసి తలకు పట్టించి రెండు గంటలు ఆగి తలస్నానం చేయాలి. ఇలా వారానికి ఒకసారైన చేస్తే మంచి ఫలితం ఉంటుంది.

* పిల్ సీడర్ వెనిగర్‌తోనూ చుండ్రును అరికట్టవచ్చు. ఇందుకోసం వెనిగర్ ను, నీటిని సమపాళ్లలో కలపాలి. దీన్ని షాంపుగా వాడి తలస్నానం చేయడం వల్ల చుండ్రు వల్ల వచ్చే దురదను వెంటనే తగ్గించవచ్చు. ఇలా కొద్ది రోజులపాటు చేయడం వల్ల చుండ్రు తగ్గిపోతుంది.

* కొబ్బరి నూనెతోనూ చుండ్రుని తరిమేయొచ్చు. కాకపోతే దీనికి టీ ట్రీ ఆయిల్‌ను కలపాల్సి ఉంటుంది. ప్రతి ఐదు టేబుల్ స్పూన్ల కొబ్బరి నూనెకు 5 - 10 చుక్కల స్వచ్ఛమైన టీ ట్రీ ఆయిల్ కలపాలి. తర్వాత దాన్ని మాడుకు పట్టించడం వల్ల చుండ్రుకు కారణమైన ఫంగస్ నశిస్తుంది. ఒకవేళ టీ ట్రీ ఆయిల్ లేకపోతే మామూలు కొబ్బరినూనె లో కొద్దిగా కర్పూరం పొడి వేసి కలిపి తలకి పెట్టుకున్న చుండ్రు తగ్గుతుంది.

* తాజా నిమ్మరసంలోని యాసిడ్లు చుండ్రును కలిగించే ఫంగస్‌ను నాశనం చేస్తాయి. నిమ్మరసాన్ని తలకు పట్టించడం వల్ల జుట్టు నుంచి మంచి పరిమళం కూడా వస్తుంది. నిమ్మరసాన్ని మాడుకు పట్టించి ఒక నిమిషంపాటు వదిలేయాలి. లేదంటే ఒక టేబుల్ స్పూన్ నిమ్మరసాన్ని కప్పు నీటిలో కలిపి తలను కడిగేసుకున్నా ఫలితం ఉంటుంది.చుండ్రు తగ్గే వరకూ ఇలా చేయాలి.

* పులిసిన పెరుగును మాస్క్‌గా వేసుకోవడం వల్ల కూడా చుండ్రు తగ్గుముఖం పడుతుంది. ఇందుకోసం ఒక గ్లాస్ పెరుగు లో ఒక స్పూన్ మెంతి పొడి కలిపి రాత్రంతా ఉంచాలి. ఉదయం పూట తలకు పట్టించి గంటపాటు అలా వదిలేయాలి. తర్వాత షాంపూతో కడిగేసుకోవాలి. ఫలితంగా చుండ్రు తగ్గడమే కాకుండా జుట్టు మృదువుగా మారుతుంది.


దారుణమైన కండీషన్ లో ఉన్న జుట్టైనా సరే.. ఈ టిప్స్ ఫాలో అయితే ఆరోగ్యంగా మారిపోతుంది..

దారుణమైన కండీషన్ లో ఉన్న జుట్టైనా సరే.. ఈ టిప్స్ ఫాలో అయితే ఆరోగ్యంగా మారిపోతుంది..

అమ్మాయిలు జుట్టు గురించి తీసుకునే శ్రద్ద బహుశా ఆరోగ్యం గురించి కూడా తీసుకోరేమో. ఒత్తుగా, పొడవుగా, మెరుస్తూ ఉండే జుట్టంటే అమ్మాయిలకు చాలా ఇష్టం. కానీ చాలా కారణాల వల్ల జుట్టు దెబ్బ తింటుంది. మెరుపును కోల్పోతుంది. విరిగిపోవడం, బూడిద రంగులోకి మారడం, చిట్లడం,  చుండ్రు వంటి సమస్యలు ఎన్నో ఎదురవుతాయి. ఇవన్నీ జుట్టు స్వరూపాన్ని మార్చేస్తాయి. వీటి పరిష్కారం కోసం అందరూ ఎన్నో రకరకాల షాంపూలు, నూనెలు వాడుతుంటారు. అయితే ఎన్ని జుట్టు సమస్యలున్నా కింద చెప్పుకునే టిప్స్ పాటించడం వల్ల జుట్టు తిరిగి ఆరోగ్యంగా, అందంగా  మారుతుంది.

జుట్టురాలకుండా ఉండాలంటే..

జుట్టురాలే సమస్య ఉన్నవారు  జుట్టును శుభ్రంగా ఉంచుకోవాలి.  తలస్నానం చేయడానికి ముందు  జుట్టుకు నూనె రాయాలి. జుట్టుకు నూనె రాసిన తరువాత ఎక్కువసేపు ఉంచుకోకూడదు. కేవలం  10 నిమిషాలు మాత్రమే ఉంచుకుని ఆ తరువాత తలస్నానం చెయ్యాలి.  ప్రతి 8-10 వారాలకు ఒకసారి జుట్టు కత్తిరించాలి. ఇలా చేయడం వల్ల జుట్టు పెరుగుదలకు ప్రోత్సాహకంగా ఉంటుంది.   వారానికి ఒకసారి తలస్నానానికి ముందు తాజా ఉల్లిపాయ రసాన్ని తలకు పట్టించాలి . ఇన్ని చేసినా జుట్టు రాలుతోంటే  వైద్యుడిని సంప్రదించడం మంచిది. కొన్నిసార్లు  ఆరోగ్య సమస్యల  కారణంగా జుట్టు రాలుతుంది. కాబట్టి వైద్యుడిని సంప్రదించం కూడా సరైనదే..

జుట్టు మెరుపు లేకుంటే..

ఫ్యాషన్ పేరుతో జుట్టుమీద ప్రయోగాలు చేసేవారు చాలామంది ఉన్నారు. అంతేకాదు  జుట్టును నిర్లక్ష్యం చేస్తే  జుట్టు మెరుపు కోల్పోతుంది. జుట్టుకు తరచుగా రసాయన చికిత్స చేయడం, హీట్ స్టైలింగ్ టూల్స్ వాడటం, ఇవి వాడుతూ  కండీషనర్‌ను అప్లై చేయకపోవడం వంటివి పొరపాట్లు జుట్టును నిర్జీవంగా మారుస్తాయి.  ఈ సమస్యకు మంచి పరిష్కారం ముందస్తు జాగ్రత్తలు.  హెయిర్ వాష్‌కు ముందు  జుట్టుకు పొడవునా నూనె రాయండి. వీలైతే, కనీసం నెలకు ఒకసారి హెయిర్ స్పా చికిత్సకు చేయించుకోవాలి. కుదరని పక్షంలో ఇంట్లోనే హాట్ ఆయిల్ మసాజ్, వేడి నీటిలో ముంచిన టవల్ తలకు చుట్టడం వంటివి ఫాలో కావాలి. జుట్టు మంచి కండీషన్లోకి వచ్చేవరకు జుట్టుకు వేడి, రసాయనాలు తగలకుండా జాగ్రత్త పడాలి.

చుండ్రును తొలగించాలంటే..

చుండ్రులో జిడ్డు, పొడి అనే రెండు రకాలు ఉన్నాయి.  జిడ్డుగల చుండ్రును ఎదుర్కొంటున్నట్లయితే, వైద్య సహాయం అవసరమవుతుంది.  నిర్లక్ష్యం చేయకుండా వైద్యుడిని సందర్శించడం ఉత్తమం.  పొడి చుండ్రుతో బాధపడుతుంటే  తలస్నానానికి   సాధారణ షాంపూతో పాటు ఆపిల్ సైడర్ వెనిగర్‌ను వారానికి ఒకసారి ఉపయోగించాలి. చుండ్రు సమస్య ఉన్నప్పుడు  జుట్టును మరింత శుభ్రంగా ఉంచుకోవాలి.

జుట్టు నెరిసిపోవడాన్ని ఎలా అరికట్టాలంటే..

చిన్న వయస్సులోనే జుట్టు బూడిద రంగులోకి మారడం ప్రారంభిస్తే, రసాయన చికిత్సలను నివారించాలి. అదే వయసు పెరిగేకొద్ది  జుట్టు నెరిసిపోతుంటే దీనికి పరిష్కారంగా సహజమైన రంగులు లేదా గోరింటతో కవర్ చేయడం ఉత్తమ పరిష్కారం. ఎప్పుడూ మంచి బ్రాండ్ కలర్‌ను ఉపయోగించాలని గుర్తుంచుకోవాలి. ఇందులో రసాయనాలు లేకుండా చూసుకోవాలి.  ఇంట్లో జుట్టుకు రంగేస్తుంటే చాలా జాగ్రత్తగా వాడాలి.

పాదాల పగుళ్లను తగ్గించే చిట్కాలు

చలికాలంలో పాదాల పగుళ్ల సమస్య ఎక్కువగా ఉంటుంది. పొడి గాలి, తేమ సరిగా లేకపోవడం, పాదాలకు సంబంధించి తగిన జాగ్రత్తలు తీసుకోకపోవడం వల్ల పాదాల పగుళ్లు వస్తుంటాయి. ఆహార లోపాలు, పెరుగుతున్న వయసుతోపాటు ఎక్కువ సేపు గట్టి నేల మీద నిలబడి ఉండాల్సి రావడం కూడా మడమల పగుళ్లకు దారి తీస్తుంటాయి. డయాబెటిస్‌తోపాటు థైరాయిడ్ సమస్యలు కూడా పాదాల పగుళ్లను మరింత పెంచుతాయి. కొద్దిపాటి జాగ్రత్తతో పగిలిన పాదాలను ఇంట్లోనే మృదువుగా మార్చేసుకోవచ్చు.

* రాత్రి నిద్రకు ఉపక్రమించే ముందు సబ్బు నీటితో పాదాలను కడిగేసుకోవాలి. మృత చర్మం తొలగిపోయేలా రుద్దాలి. తర్వాత పొడి వస్త్రంతో తుడిచేసి.. పాదాలకు వెజిటబుల్ ఆయిల్స్‌ను రాయాలి. సాక్సులు ధరించి నిద్రించాలి. ఉదయాన్నే పాదాలు మృదువుగా ఉండటాన్ని గమనించొచ్చు. క్రమం తప్పకుండా ఇలా చేయడం వల్ల పగుళ్లు పూర్తిగా తగ్గిపోతాయి.

* చర్మం రఫ్‌గా మారడం పగుళ్లకు దారి తీస్తుంది. నిమ్మలోని ఆమ్ల గుణాలు రఫ్‌గా మారిన చర్మాన్ని మృదువుగా మారుస్తాయి. వెచ్చటి నీటిలో నిమ్మరసం కలిపి పాదాలను పావు గంటపాటు అందులో ఉంచాలి. తర్వాత మడమల్ని రుద్దేసి.. కడిగేశాక.. పొడిగా ఉండే వస్త్రంతో తుడవాలి. నిమ్మ చెక్కని పగుళ్ళకి రుద్దడం వలన కూడా పగుళ్లు తగ్గుతాయి .

* పాదాల పగుళ్లు వచ్చిన వారు రాత్రి పడుకునే ముందు గోరువెచ్చని నీటిలో చెంచా ఉప్పు, చిటికెడు పసుపు వేసి ఆ నీటిలో పాదాలను పది నిమిషాల పాటు ఉంచాలి. ఆ తర్వాత పొడి వస్త్రంతో శుభ్రంగా తుడిచి పెట్రోలియం జెల్లీని రాసుకుంటే పగుళ్లు తగ్గుతాయి.

* గ్లిజరిన్, రోజ్ వాటర్ మిశ్రమంతోనూ మడమల పగుళ్లను తొలగించొచ్చు. ఈ రెండింటిని సమపాళ్లలో కలిపి రాత్రి నిద్రకు ఉపక్రమించే ముందు మడమలు, పాదాలకు రాయాలి. రోజూ ఇలా చేయడం వల్ల పగుళ్లు తగ్గిపోతాయి.

పండిన అరటి:


సాధారణంగా, అరటిపండు ఎక్కువగా పండినట్లయితే, గుజ్జు మెత్తగా మారుతుంది. అలాంటప్పుడు వాటిని తినాలని అనిపించదు. దానిని చెత్తబుట్టలో పడేస్తుంటాము. అయితే ఇకపై అలా చేయకండి, ఈ పండును పేస్ట్ లా చేసి ముఖానికి రాసుకుంటే చిన్న వయసులో కనిపించే వృద్ధాప్య లక్షణాలు క్రమంగా మాయమవుతాయి.

-తేనె సగం టీస్పూన్
-గట్టి పెరుగు అర టీస్పూన్
-ఒక చిన్న టీస్పూన్ రోజ్ వాటర్

పైన పేర్కొన్న మిశ్రమాలన్ని  ఒక గిన్నెలో వేసి బాగా కలపండి, మందపాటి పేస్ట్ లాగా చేయాలి. ఇప్పుడు వేళ్ల సహాయంతో, ఈ పేస్ట్‌ను ముఖంపై సర్క్యులర్ మోషన్‌లో మసాజ్ చేయండి.  పావుగంటపాటు పేస్టును ముఖంపై ఉంచి..గోరువెచ్చని నీటితో ముఖాన్ని శుభ్రంచేసుకోవాలి.  

పసుపు:


 పసుపును పొగబెట్టినా తక్కువే. ఎందుకంటే దాని వల్ల చాలా ప్రయోజనాలు ఉన్నాయి. ముఖ్యంగా మన అందానికి ఈ పసుపుతో మంచి సంబంధం ఉంది.  ఈ రోజుల్లో పెద్ద బ్రాండ్ బ్యూటీ కంపెనీలు కూడా తమ చర్మ సంరక్షణ ఉత్పత్తులలో పసుపుపై ఆధారపడుతున్నాయి.


ఒక గిన్నెలో అర చెంచా పసుపు పొడి, ఒక టీ చెంచా నెయ్యి, రెండు టేబుల్ స్పూన్ల పాలు కలిపి పేస్టులా చేసుకోవాలి.
వేళ్ల సహాయంతో వృత్తాకార కదలికలో మసాజ్ చేయండి. పదిహేను నిమిషాల తర్వాత నీళ్లతో ముఖం కడుక్కోవాలి.
దీంతో ముఖంపై మొటిమలు, మచ్చలు, ముడతలు తగ్గడమే కాకుండా ముఖ సౌందర్యం కాంతివంతంగా మారుతుంది.

చుండ్రు తగ్గించే తేలికైన ఉపాయాలు


ఇప్పుడున్న పొల్యూషన్ వల్ల రోజు రోజుకి చుండ్రు సమస్యలు ఎక్కువైపోతున్నాయి . చుండ్రు వల్ల జుట్టు రాలిపోవటం, పేలు రావడం, దురద లాంటివి మొదలవుతాయి. ఈ సమస్యను అరికట్టాలంటే చిన్న చిన్న చిట్కాలు చేయాల్సిఉంటుంది . అవేంటో చూసేద్దాం రండి ..

* వేపాకులతో చుండ్రును తేలిగ్గా తగ్గించుకోవచ్చు. దురదను తగ్గించడమే కాదు.. చుండ్రు పెరగడానికి కారణమయ్యే ఫంగస్‌ పెరుగుదలను కూడా వేపాకు అరికడుతుంది. రెండు గుపిళ్ల నిండుగా వేపాకు, కొద్దిగా మందారకు,కొద్దిగా కలబంద గుజ్జు ఈ మూడింటిని మిక్సీ లో మెత్తగా గ్రైండ్ చేసి తలకు పట్టించి రెండు గంటలు ఆగి తలస్నానం చేయాలి. ఇలా వారానికి ఒకసారైన చేస్తే మంచి ఫలితం ఉంటుంది.

* పిల్ సీడర్ వెనిగర్‌తోనూ చుండ్రును అరికట్టవచ్చు. ఇందుకోసం వెనిగర్ ను, నీటిని సమపాళ్లలో కలపాలి. దీన్ని షాంపుగా వాడి తలస్నానం చేయడం వల్ల చుండ్రు వల్ల వచ్చే దురదను వెంటనే తగ్గించవచ్చు. ఇలా కొద్ది రోజులపాటు చేయడం వల్ల చుండ్రు తగ్గిపోతుంది.

* కొబ్బరి నూనెతోనూ చుండ్రు ని తరిమేయొచ్చు. కాకపోతే దీనికి టీ ట్రీ ఆయిల్‌ను కలపాల్సి ఉంటుంది. ప్రతి ఐదు టేబుల్ స్పూన్ల కొబ్బరి నూనెకు 5 - 10 చుక్కల స్వచ్ఛమైన టీ ట్రీ ఆయిల్ కలపాలి. తర్వాత దాన్ని మాడుకు పట్టించడం వల్ల చుండ్రుకు కారణమైన ఫంగస్ నశిస్తుంది. ఒకవేళ టీ ట్రీ ఆయిల్ లేకపోతే మామూలు కొబ్బరినూనె లో కొద్దిగా కర్పూరం పొడి వేసి కలిపి తలకి పెట్టుకున్న చుండ్రు తగ్గుతుంది.

* తాజా నిమ్మరసంలోని యాసిడ్లు చుండ్రును కలిగించే ఫంగస్‌ను నాశనం చేస్తాయి. నిమ్మరసాన్ని తలకు పట్టించడం వల్ల జుట్టు నుంచి మంచి పరిమళం కూడా వస్తుంది. నిమ్మరసాన్ని మాడుకు పట్టించి ఒక నిమిషంపాటు వదిలేయాలి. లేదంటే ఒక టేబుల్ స్పూన్ నిమ్మరసాన్ని కప్పు నీటిలో కలిపి తలను కడిగేసుకున్నా ఫలితం ఉంటుంది.చుండ్రు తగ్గే వరకూ ఇలా చేయాలి.

* పులిసిన పెరుగును మాస్క్‌గా వేసుకోవడం వల్ల కూడా చుండ్రు తగ్గుముఖం పడుతుంది. ఇందుకోసం ఒక గ్లాస్ పెరుగు లో ఒక స్పూన్ మెంతి పొడి కలిపి రాత్రంతా ఉంచాలి. ఉదయం పూట తలకు పట్టించి గంటపాటు అలా వదిలేయాలి. తర్వాత షాంపూతో కడిగేసుకోవాలి. ఫలితంగా చుండ్రు తగ్గడమే కాకుండా జుట్టు మృదువుగా మారుతుంది.


ప్రతి రోజూ ఉదయాన్నే చేసే ఈ ఆరు తప్పుల వల్ల అమ్మాయిలు ఎంత నష్టపోతున్నారో తెలుసా?

 ప్రతి రోజూ ఉదయాన్నే చేసే ఈ ఆరు తప్పుల వల్ల అమ్మాయిలు  ఎంత నష్టపోతున్నారో తెలుసా?

 

ఉదయం లేచింది మొదలు మనిషి రోజు మొదలవుతుంది. ఈకాలంలో చాలామంది ఎక్కువగా ఆరోగ్యోం మీద దృష్టి పెడుతున్నారు. కానీ ఆరోగ్యం అనుకుంటూ ఎన్నెన్నో తప్పులు చేస్తున్నారు. మరికొందరు సాధారణం అనుకునే అలవాట్లు ఎన్నెన్నో  నష్టాలకు కారణం అవుతున్నాయి. ముఖ్యంగా అమ్మాయిలు డైటింగ్ విషయంలోనూ, అందాన్ని కాపాడుకోవడంలోనూ చాలా జాగ్రత్తలు తీసుకుంటారు. కానీ వీటిలో చాలావరకు లాభం చేకూర్చకపోగా నష్టం చేకూర్చుతాయి. వీటిని తెలుసుకోకుంటే చేతులు కాలాక ఆకులు పట్టుకున్నట్టు, పూర్తీగా అందం ఆరోగ్యం నష్టపోయాక భాధపడాలి. అందరూ కామన్ అనుకుంటూ చేస్తున్న ఆ ఆరు తప్పులు ఏంటో తెలుసుకుంటే..

ఓట్స్..

అమ్మాయిలు ఉదయాన్నే ఎక్కవగా తీసుకునే అల్పాహారం ఓట్స్. ఓట్స్ తీసుకోవడం వల్ల బరువు పెరగరని తద్వారా అందంగా ఆరోగ్యంగా ఉండొచ్చని అనుకుంటారు. కానీ ప్రతి రోజూ ఓట్స్ తీసుకుంటే ఉదయాన్నే శరీరానికి అందాల్సిన పోషకాలు చాలావరకు లాస్ అవుతారు. ఓట్స్ లో పైబర్, బరువు తగ్గింటే కారకాలు ఉంటాయి తప్ప శరీరానికి ప్రోటీన్ ఏమీ అందించదు. పైపెచ్చు ఓట్స్ ను ప్రతిరోజూ తింటే చర్మం చాలా తొందరగా పొడిబారుతుంది. చర్మం మీద చారలు చారలుగా గీతలు ఏర్పడటం జరుగుతుంది.

స్నానం..

ఉదయాన్నే వేడినీటితో స్నానం చేస్తే కలిగే రిఫ్రెష్మెంట్ యే వేరు. కానీ ప్రతిరోజూ వేడి నీటి స్నానం ఆరోగ్యానికి మంచి చేకూర్చకపోగా చెడు చేస్తుందంటున్నారు. వేడినీటి స్నానం శరీరంలో తేమశాతాన్ని చాలా తొందరగా లాగేస్తుందట. ఇక ముఖం కడగడానికి వేడి నీటిని ఉపయోగించడం వల్ల ముఖ చర్మం చాలా తొందరగా  ముడతలు వస్తాయి. ముఖం ముసలిగా మారిపోతుంది.

కాఫీ..

చాలామందికి కాఫీ అనేది ఒక ఎమోషన్.  ఉదయాన్నే ఒక కప్పు కాఫీ పడితే కానీ పనులు ముందుకు సాగవు. ఆ తరువాత కాఫీ టిఫిన్  కు ముందు, ఇక చాలామందికి టిఫిన్ తరువాత  వేడిగా, స్ట్రాంగ్ గా కాపీ పడాల్సిందే. కానీ ఈ అలవాటు చాలా చెడ్డది. సహజంగానే కాఫీ శరీరాన్ని డీహైడ్రేట్ చేస్తుంది. శరీరంలో ఉన్న టాక్సిన్ లు బయటకు వెళ్లడంలో ఇబ్బంది కలిగిస్తుంది.

సన్ స్క్రీన్..

అమ్మాయిలు సన్ స్క్రీన్ అప్లై చేయడం లైఫ్ స్టైల్ లో భాగం చేసుకున్నారు. ఇది  సుర్యకిరణాల నుండి చర్మాన్ని రక్షిస్తుంది. కానీ కొందరు అలవాటులో పొరపాటుగా ఇంట్లో ఉన్నప్పుడు కూడా స్నానం తరువాత సన్ స్క్రీన్ అప్లై చేస్తుంటారు. దీని కారణంగా చర్మం దారుణంగా దెబ్బతింటుంది. అందుకే అవసరమైన సందర్బాలలో మాత్రమే సన్ స్క్రీన్ ఉపయోగించాలి.

బ్యూటీ ప్రోడక్ట్స్..

చర్మం  ఆరోగ్యంగా, అందంగా ఉండటానికి అమ్మాయిలు చాలా బ్యూటీ ప్రోడక్ట్స్ ఉపయోగిస్తారు. కానీ చర్మం బాగుండాలంటే ఈ బ్యూటీ ఉత్పత్తులేవీ అక్కర్లేదు. కేవలం సీజన్ కు తగ్గట్టుగా చర్మ సంరక్షణ చర్యలు తీసుకుంటే సరిపోతుంది. అవేమీ పట్టించుకోకుండా సీజన్ తో సంబంధం లేకుండా బ్యూటీ ప్రోడక్ట్స్ వాడితే  ముఖచర్మం చాలా తొందరగా వృద్దాప్యంగా మారుతుంది.

ఫేస్ వాష్..

ఉదయం లేవగానే చాలామందికి ముఖమంతా చాలా జిడ్డుగా ఉంటుంది.  దీన్ని వదిలించుకోవడానికి చాలా గాఢత కలిగిన కెమికల్స్ తో కూడిన ఫేస్ వాష్ లు ఉపయోగిస్తుంటారు. మరికొందరికి పేస్ వాష్ ఉపయోగించడం అంటే అదొక ఫ్యాషన్. కానీ  ఫేష్ వాష్ లు ముఖ చర్మాన్ని సున్నితంగా మార్చేస్తాయి. అందుకే  ముఖం జిడ్డుగా ఉంటే తేలికపాటి క్లెన్సర్ ని ఉపయోగించి ముఖాన్ని క్లీన్ చేసుకోవాలి. ఆ తరువాత గోరువెచ్చని నీటితో ముఖం కడగాలి.

ఫేషియల్ తరువాత ఈ తప్పులు అస్సలు చేయొద్దు!

ఫేషియల్ తరువాత ఈ తప్పులు అస్సలు చేయొద్దు!

అమ్మాయిలు ఆరోగ్యం కంటే కూడా చర్మసంరక్షణకు ఎక్కువ ప్రాధాన్యత ఇస్తారు. అయితే అందం ఎప్పుడూ ఆరోగ్యం మీద ఆధారపడి ఉంటుంది. ఈ వేసవి కాలంలో  ఆరోగ్యంతో పాటు చర్మంపై కూడా ప్రత్యేక శ్రద్ధ తీసుకోవాలి. ఎందుకంటే ఈ సీజన్‌లో శరీరంలో నీటి కొరత ఎక్కువగా ఉంటుంది. దీని వల్ల చర్మానికి సంబంధించిన సమస్యలు చాలా  వస్తాయి. మరీ ముఖ్యంగా ముఖంపై మొటిమలు రావడం సర్వసాధారణం. సూర్యరశ్మి కారణంగా చర్మం కమిలిపోవడం, రంగు మారడం జరుగుతుంది. ఇటువంటి పరిస్థితిలో, మహిళలు తమ ముఖానికి ఫేషియల్ చేయించుకుంటారు. ఫేషియల్ చేసుకోవడం వల్ల ముఖంపై ఉన్న మురికి తొలగి, ముఖచర్మం  శుభ్రపడుతుంది. చర్మం ఆరోగ్యవంతంగా మారుతుంది.

కానీ వందలాది రూపాయలు ఖర్చు పెట్టి ఫేషియల్ చేయించుకున్నా, ఇంట్లో సొంతంగానే పేషియల్ చేసుకున్నా.. ఫేషియల్ తర్వాత కొన్ని జాగ్రత్తలు తీసుకోకపోతే చిన్న వయసులోనే ముసలితనం మొదలవుతుందని మీకు తెలుసా? చాలా మంది బ్యూటీ ఎక్స్‌పర్ట్స్ కూడా ఈ విషయాల్లో జాగ్రత్తలు తీసుకోవాలని చెబుతారు. ఫేషియల్ చేయించుకున్న తర్వాత కచ్చితంగా కొన్ని జాగ్రత్తలు పాటించాలి. అవి పాటించకపోతే.. ఫేషియల్స్  అందాన్ని ఇవ్వడానికి బదులుగా హాని కలిగిస్తాయి. ఫేషియల్ తరువాత పాటించాల్సిన జాగ్రత్తలు ఏమిటంటే..

మేకప్‌కు దూరంగా ఉండాలి..

ఫేషియల్ చేసినప్పుడు ముఖ చర్మ రంధ్రాలు తెరుచుకుంటాయి. అలాంటి సమయంలో  వెంటనే మేకప్ చేస్తే, అది చర్మ సమస్యలను కలిగిస్తుంది.మేకప్ తాలూకూ రసాయనాలు చర్మరంధ్రాల్లోకి చొచ్చుకెళ్లి చర్మానికి నష్టం చేకూరుస్తుంది.

సూర్యరశ్మికి గురికాకూడదు..

ఫేషియల్ చేసిన వెంటనే ఎండలోకి వెళ్లకూడదు. పార్లర్ నుంచి ఫేషియల్ చేయించుకున్న తర్వాత ఎండలో, దుమ్ములో బయటికి వెళితే దుమ్ము, ధూళి, గాలిలో ఉండే వాహనాల పొగ, సూర్యకిరణాల ప్రభావం అన్నీ కలిపి చర్మాన్ని తొందరగా పాడుచేస్తాయి. బ్యూటీ పార్లర్ లో ఫేషియల్ చేయించుకున్న తరువాత స్కూటీ ప్రయాణం మానుకోవాలి, ఆటోలో వెళ్లడం మంచిది. స్యూటీలో వెళ్ళాలి అంటే ముఖానికి స్కార్ఫ్  వాడటం మరచిపోకూడదు. 

ఫేస్‌వాష్‌తో అస్సలు చేయొద్దు..

 ఫేషియల్ చేయించుకున్న తరువాత  రోజు మొత్తం  ఫేస్‌వాష్‌ని ఉపయోగించకుండా ఉండటం చాలా ముఖ్యం. పొరపాటున ఫేస్ వాష్ ఉపయోగిస్తే ఫేషియల్ ద్వారా చర్మానికి అందిన మృదుత్వం పోతుంది. ఫలితంగా ఫేస్ వాష్ లో రసాయనాల వల్ల చర్మరంధ్రాలు దెబ్బతిని ఓపెన్ పోర్స్ సమస్యకు దారితీస్తుంది.

చర్మ సంరక్షణ ఉత్పత్తులకు దూరంగా ఉండాలి..

ఫేషియల్ తర్వాత చర్మ సంరక్షణ ఉత్పత్తులను  దూరంగా ఉంచాలి . ఫేషియల్  ముఖచర్మం లోపలివరకు ప్రభావం చూపుతుంది. ఈ పరిస్థితిలో చర్మసంరక్షణ ఉత్పత్తులు వాడితే అందులో ఉన్న రసాయనాల వల్ల చర్మం మరింత సున్నితమైపోయి దారుణంగా దెబ్బతింటుంది. అందుకే ఫేషియల్  తర్వాత  స్క్రబ్ చేయడం, ఇతర ఉత్పత్తులు వాడటం చేయకూడదు.

అందమైన గోళ్లు కావాలా ఇదిగో అయిదు టిప్స్ పాటిస్తే చాలు!


 

అందమైన గోళ్లు ఎంతోమంది అమ్మయిలకు ఇష్టం. గోళ్లు అందంగా, ఆరోగ్యంగా, పొడవుగా మెరుస్తూ ఉంటే ఎంతో బాగుంటుంది. అందంగా నెయిల్ పాలిష్ వేసుకుని అట్రాక్షన్ గా కనిపించడం కొందరికి ఇష్టమైతే సాధారణంగా గులాబీరంగులో ఉన్న గోళ్లను చూసి మురిసిపోవడం మరికొందరికి ఇష్టం. మొత్తానికి గోళ్ల వల్ల ఏదైనా సమస్య ఉంటే అబ్బాయిలు బెంగ పడిపోతారు. 

 గోళ్లకు ప్రత్యేక శ్రద్ధ అవసరం, ఎందుకంటే రోజులో  వేడి, తేమ గోళ్లకు తగులుతూ ఉంటాయి. వీటి కారణంగా అవి పొడిగా, పెళుసుగా  మారి తొందరగా విరిగిపోయే అవకాశం ఉంటుంది. బలమైన, ఆరోగ్యకరమైన గోళ్ల రహస్యం ఏమిటా ని చాలా మంది నెట్టింట్లో వెతికేస్తూ ఉంటారు. బలమైన, ఆరోగ్యకరమైన, మెరిసే గోళ్లు కావాలంటే దోసకాయలు, పుచ్చకాయలు, స్ట్రాబెర్రీలు వంటి హైడ్రేటింగ్ ఆహారాలలో నీరు బాగా ఉంటుంది. అలాగే వీటితో పాటు శరీరానికి సరిపడినంత నీరు తీసుకోవాలి.  గోర్లు మరియు క్యూటికల్స్‌ను ఆరోగ్యంగా  ఉంచడానికి వాటికి మాయిశ్చరైజింగ్ హ్యాండ్ లోషన్ లేదా నెయిల్ ఆయిల్‌ను అప్లై చేయవచ్చు.

గోరు సంరక్షణకు ముఖ్యమైన చిట్కాలు:

చేతి తొడుగులు ధరించాలి..

కఠినమైన రసాయనాలు, దుమ్ము, ధూళి చేతులకు తగిలే పరిస్థితులు ఉన్నప్పుడు గోళ్లను రక్షించడానికి గ్లౌజులు ధరించాలి. సింకులో పాత్రలు కడగడం, టాయిలెట్ క్లినింగ్, రసాయనాలు ముట్టుకోవడం వంటి సందర్భాల్లో గ్లౌజులు బెస్ట్ ఆప్షన్. ఇదంతా విదేశాల్లో చేస్తారు మనకెందుకు అనుకుని తీసిపారేయాల్సిన అవసరం లేదు. మంచి చేకూర్చే అలవాటు ఏదైనా పాటించడంలో తప్పులేదు.

విటమిన్ డి..

విటమిన్ డి ఆరోగ్యకరమైన గోళ్లను అందిస్తుంది. సూర్యరశ్మి ద్వారా ఇది మనకు లభిస్తుంది. అయితే ఎక్కువ ఎండకు గోర్లు గురైనప్పుడు గోళ్లు పెళుసుబారతాయి.  మీ గోర్లు ఎండిపోవచ్చు, రంగు మారవచ్చు లేదా ఎక్కువ సూర్యరశ్మితో పగుళ్లు రావచ్చు. బయట ఎక్కువ సమయం గడుపుతున్నప్పుడు, మీ చేతులు మరియు గోళ్లకు సన్‌స్క్రీన్‌ అప్లై చేయాలి.

ఎక్స్‌ఫోలియేట్ చేయడం మర్చిపోకండి..

చర్మాన్ని  ఎక్స్‌ఫోలియేట్ చేయడం వల్ల గోళ్లు, క్యూటికల్స్ కూడా ప్రయోజనం పొందుతాయి. చనిపోయిన చర్మ కణాలను తొలగించడానికి, గోళ్లకు రక్త ప్రసరణను ప్రోత్సహించడానికి, మృదువైన నెయిల్ బ్రష్ లేదా బాడీ స్క్రబ్ ఉపయోగించాలి.  అదనంగా, ఇది మీ క్యూటికల్స్ ఆరోగ్యంగా కనిపించేలా, పెరుగుదల లేకుండా ఆగిపోయిన గొళ్లను మళ్ళీ పెరిగేలా చేస్తుంది.

 గోళ్లను ఎప్పటికప్పుడు కట్ చేసుకోవాలి.. 

పొడవాటి గోళ్లు అందంగా అనిపించవచ్చు, కానీ గాఢత కారణంగా అవి విరిగిపోయి, గీసుకోవడం కోసుకోవడం జరిగి హాని కలిగించే అవకాశం ఉంది. అందుకే గోళ్లను ఎప్పటికప్పుడు కట్ చేసుకోవాలి.  దీనివల్ల గోళ్ల పరిశుభ్రతను కొనసాగించడం సులభం అవుతుంది.

 నెయిల్ పాలిష్ నుండి విరామం తీసుకోవాలి..

నెయిల్ పాలిష్ వేసుకోవడం  చాలామందికి ఇష్టం. అయినప్పటికీ అప్పుడప్పుడు ఈ నెయిల్ పాలిష్ నుండి  గోళ్లకు విరామం ఇవ్వడం చాలా ముఖ్యం.  అన్ని సమయాల్లో నెయిల్ పాలిష్ ధరిస్తే గోళ్లు బలహీనంగా, పెళుసుగా మారవచ్చు. కేవలం అప్పుడప్పుడు మాత్రమే గోళ్లకు నెయిల్ పాలిష్ వేస్తుండాలి.

పాదాలు బాగా పగిలి ఇబ్బంది పెడుతున్నాయా... అయితే మీకోసమే ఈ టిప్స్!

పాదాలు బాగా పగిలి ఇబ్బంది పెడుతున్నాయా... అయితే మీకోసమే ఈ టిప్స్!

మహిళలు ఆరోగ్యం కంటే ఎక్కువగా అందానికి ప్రాముఖ్యత ఇస్తారు. జుట్టు, ముఖం, పెదవులు, కనుబొమ్మలు, గోళ్లు ఇలా చాలా విషయాల్లో ఎన్నెన్నో టిప్స్ పాటిస్తారు. అయితే ఇన్ని టిప్స్ ఫాలో అయ్యే మహిళలు తమ పాదాల సంరక్షణలో మాత్రం నిర్లక్ష్యంగా ఉంటారు. ఏ చెప్పుల షాపుకో వెళ్ళినప్పుడు, పట్టీలు వంటివి దరిస్తున్నపుడు తప్ప కాళ్ళ వైపు చూసేవారు కూడా తక్కువే అనుకోవచ్చు. ఈ కారణంగా మహిళల్లో పాదాల పగుళ్లు వస్తుంటాయి. ఇది పాదాలు పొడిబారడంతో మొదలయ్యి  మడమలు పగుళ్లు, కాల్లస్‌లకు దారితీస్తుంది. పగిలిన మడమల వల్ల అంతగా ఆందోళన చెందాల్సిన పని లేకపోయినా అవి ఎబ్బెట్టుగానూ, కొన్నిసార్లు నొప్పి పుట్టి ఇబ్బందిని కలిగిస్తాయి. 

పాదాల పగుళ్లు సాధారణం కంటే లోతుగా ఉన్నప్పుడు నడవడం కూడా పెద్ద ఇబ్బంది అవుతుంది.  కొందరి పాదాలు ఎంతో సుకుమారంగా, అందంగా ఎలాంటి పగుళ్లు లేకుండా ఉంటాయి. అది అందరికీ సాధ్యం కాదేమో అని అనుకుంటారు. కానీ అది చాలా పొరపాటు. పాదాల పగుళ్లు తగ్గి, ఆరోగ్యంగా మారేందుకు మూడే మూడు చిట్కాలు పాటిస్తే చాలు. 

స్నానం చేసిన తరువాత పాదాలను కూడా శుభ్రంగా తుడుచుకోవాలి. ఉదయం రాత్రి రెండు పూటలా పాదాలకు కూడా మాయిశ్చరైజర్ రాయాలి. మాయిశ్చరైజర్ వల్ల సరిపడినంత మృదుత్వం లభించడం లేదని అనిపిస్తే వెజిలైన్ లేదా ఇతర వైట్ పెట్రోలియం జెల్లీని పాదాలకు అప్లై చేయాలి. దీన్ని రోజూ క్రమం తప్పకుండా పాటిస్తుంటే తొందరలోనే మిగిలిన పాదాలు సాధారణ స్థితికి వస్తాయి. 

బాగా పొడిబారి, పగిలిన మడమల కోసం ప్రత్యేకంగా తయారు చేయబడిన సాక్స్‌లను ఉపయోగించవచ్చు. వీటిని మాయిశ్చరైజింగ్ సాక్సులు అంటారు. వీటిలో కలబంద, విటమిన్ ఇ, షియా బటర్ వంటి పదార్థాలు ఉంటాయి, ఇవి పాదాల చర్మాన్ని ఎప్పుడూ  హైడ్రేట్ గా ఉంచగలుగుతాయి. 

కాలి పగుళ్లు నయం అయిన తర్వాత, పాదాలకు పెడిక్యూర్ చేసుకోవాలి. ఇది బ్యూటీపార్లర్లలోనే లభిస్తుందని అనుకుంటే పొరపాటే. వారంలో ఒకసారి అయినా ఇంటి పట్టున ఉన్నప్పుడు పెడిక్యూర్ చేసుకోవడం వల్ల మంచి ఫలితం ఉంటుంది. దీనికోసం తక్కువ ధరలోనే కావలసిన పదార్థాలు లభిస్తాయి. వీటన్నింటికి బదులుగా పాలు, తేనె మిశ్రమాన్ని కూడా ఉపయోగించవచ్చు .పాదాలను నానబెట్టిన తరువాత , ప్యూమిస్ స్టోన్ ను  ఉపయోగించడం వల్ల పాదాలను నునుపుగా మార్చవచ్చు.

సాధారణమైన ఈ చిట్కాలు పాటించినా ఫలితం లేకపోతే చర్మసంరక్షణ నిపుణులను సంప్రదించడం మంచిది. కొన్నిసార్లు ఫంగస్ ఇన్ఫెక్షన్ వల్ల ఇలాటి సమస్యలు ఎదురవుతాయి. మిగిలిన పాదాల చర్మాన్ని చేత్తో లాగడం చేయకూడదు. పాదాల సంరక్షణకు ఓపిక చాలా ముఖ్యం కాబట్టి మొదట్లో ఓపికగా పగుళ్లను నివరించుకుంటే.. ఆ తరువాత దాన్ని కాపాడుకోవడం సులువు అవుతుంది.

పిల్లలలో ఐక్యూ ఎంతుందో ఎలా తెలుసుకోవాలి..వారి ఐక్యూ ఎలా పెంచాలంటే?


 తల్లిదండ్రులు తమ బిడ్డ తెలివిగా, చురుగ్గా ఉండాలని కోరుకుంటారు.  దీని కారణంగా పిల్లలు  విజయం సాధిస్తారు. పిల్లలు చురుగ్గా తయారుకావడానికి తల్లిదండ్రులు వారికి మంచి వాతావరణాన్ని అందించడానికి తమ వంతు ప్రయత్నం చేస్తారు.

ఆహారం నుండి పానీయాల వరకు, మంచి అలవాట్ల నుండి  మంచి పాఠశాలను కనుగొనడం వరకు తల్లిదండ్రులు కృషి చేస్తారు. కానీ పిల్లవాడు తెలివిగా ఉండటానికి,  అతని IQ స్థాయి బాగా ఉండటానికి చాలా తేడా ఉంది. IQ అంటే ఇంటెలిజెన్స్ కోషెంట్. ఇది పిల్లలను సాధారణ పిల్లల నుండి భిన్నంగా చేస్తుంది. చిన్నతనం నుంచి కొన్ని విషయాలను దృష్టిలో ఉంచుకుంటే పిల్లల ఐక్యూ స్థాయిని పెంచవచ్చని అనేక పరిశోధనలు చెబుతున్నాయి. సాధారణంగా పిల్లల ఐక్యూ స్థాయి 90 నుంచి 110 మధ్య ఉంటుంది. పిల్లల IQ స్థాయి 125 నుండి 130 వరకు ఉంటే అతనిని మేధావిగా పరిగణిస్తారు. అయితే దీనికి ముందు  పిల్లల ఐక్యూ ఎంతో  తెలుసుకోవడం ముఖ్యం.  దీన్ని తెలుసుకోవడం కష్టమేమీ కాదు, పిల్లవాడిని కొంచెం గమనించాలి,   అతని ప్రవర్తనను అర్థం చేసుకోవాలి.  పిల్లలలో గమనించాల్సిన కొన్ని విషయాలు ఏమిటంటే..

 మాట్లాడటం..

అన్నింటిలో మొదటిది పిల్లవాడు ఏ వయస్సులో మాట్లాడటం ప్రారంభించాడో గమనించాలి. పదాలను పట్టుకోవడంలో అతని సామర్థ్యం ఏమిటి? అతను ఏ పదాలు తక్కువ తప్పులతో మాట్లాడుతున్నాడు లేదా అతనికి పదే పదే చెప్పాల్సివస్తోందా? అతను పూర్తి వాక్యాలు చేయడం ఎప్పుడు నేర్చుకున్నాడు? ఇవి చిన్న విషయాలు, కానీ అవి పిల్లల భవిష్యత్తు జీవితం గురించి మీకు చాలా చెప్పగలవు. త్వరగా మాట్లాడటం, పదాలను గ్రహించడం,  వాక్యాలుగా మాట్లాడటం అధిక IQకి సంకేతాలుగా చెబుతారు.

నేర్చుకోవాలనే ఆత్రుత..

నేర్చుకోవాలనే బలమైన కోరిక పిల్లల్లో మంచి IQకి సంకేతం. వారి మనస్సులో చాలా  గందరగోళం ఉంటుంది, దానిని శాంతపరచడానికి వారు ప్రశ్నలు అడగవచ్చు. ఆ ప్రశ్నలకు వీలైనంత వరకు సమాధానమివ్వడానికి ప్రయత్నించండి, తద్వారా పిల్లవాడు సంతృప్తి చెందుతాడు. పిల్లవాడు ఆ  చర్యలను పునరావృతం చేయడానికి ప్రయత్నిస్తుంటే, అది అతనిలో ఉన్నత మానసిక స్థాయికి సంకేతం  కావచ్చు.

సంక్లిష్టమైన విషయాలపై ఆసక్తి..

 పిల్లలు గణితం,  సైన్స్ వంటి విషయాలపై ఆసక్తిని కనబరుస్తున్నట్లయితే అది చాలా సంతోషకరమైన విషయం. ఒకరి వయస్సు కంటే క్లిష్టమైన విషయాలపై ఆసక్తి చూపడం కూడా అధిక IQకి సూచికగా పరిగణించబడుతుంది.

పరిశోధనాత్మక స్వభావం..

జిజ్ఞాస కలిగిన పిల్లలు తమ తల్లిదండ్రులను వింత ప్రశ్నలు వేస్తూంటారు. ఉదాహరణకు, కుళాయి నుండి నీరు ఎందుకు వస్తుంది?  కాఫీ ఎందుకు రాదు? పాల రంగు ఎందుకు తెల్లగా ఉంటుంది? నది ఎందుకు ప్రవహిస్తుంది? చాలా సార్లు తల్లులు, తండ్రులు ఆందోళన చెందుతారు. అయితే  కాస్త ఓపికగా  వారి ప్రశ్నలకు వీలైనంత సరైన సమాధానం ఇవ్వడానికి ప్రయత్నించాలి.

ఏకాగ్రత..

పిల్లవాడు ఒక పనిపై ఏకాగ్రతతో ఉంటే, అతను తన పనిని ఆనందిస్తున్నాడని రుజువు చేస్తుంది. చదరంగం ఆడటం లేదా డ్రాయింగ్ ఇలాంటి అధిక ఏకాగ్రత కలిగిన విషయాలు పిల్లలలో  అధిక IQకి సూచిక.

సెన్స్ ఆఫ్ హ్యూమర్..

ఎవరైనా తమాషా చేసినా, అవతలి వ్యక్తి చెప్పేదానికి సరైన,  ఆసక్తికరమైన సమాధానం ఇచ్చినా కూడా  పిల్లవాడు చిరాకు పడకుంటే, అది కూడా అధిక IQని కలిగి ఉండడానికి సంకేతం. మంచి హాస్యం అనేది సంతోషకరమైన వ్యక్తి యొక్క గుర్తింపు.

మంచి జ్ఞాపకశక్తి..

 పిల్లలకు ఏదైనా నేర్పిస్తే వారు మరుసటి రోజు దానిని మరచిపోతారు. కానీ ఆ  విషయాలు గుర్తుంచుకుంటే అది మంచి విషయమే. కష్టమైన పదాలు, రైమ్స్, పండ్లు,  కూరగాయల పేర్లు గుర్తుంచుకోవడం,  ఇంటి చిరునామా,  తల్లిదండ్రుల ఫోన్ నంబర్లను గుర్తుంచుకోవడం అధిక మానసిక సామర్థ్యానికి సంకేతాలు.

పిల్లలలో iq ని ఎలా పెంచాలంటే..

పిల్లల ముందు దుర్భాషలాడకూడదు, వారని కొట్టకూడదు. పిల్లలను వీలైనంత ఎక్కువ సమయం ప్రకృతి మధ్య గడపనివ్వాలి. పిల్లవాడు ప్రశ్నలు అడగడం ప్రారంభించినప్పుడు, అతని ప్రశ్నలకు సాధ్యమైనంతవరకు సరైన,  శాస్త్రీయ సమాధానాలు ఇవ్వాలి. దెయ్యాలు, దెయ్యాలు, జంతువులు, మర్మమైన వ్యక్తులు లేదా ఇతర విషయాలతో పిల్లలను ఎప్పుడూ భయపెట్టవద్దు. ఎల్లప్పుడూ పిల్లల కళ్ళలోకి చూస్తూ వారితో మాట్లాడాలి.  వారు మీతో మాట్లాడేటప్పుడు వారు కూడా మీ కళ్ళలోకి చూసేందుకు ప్రయత్నించండి.

ఏదైనా వాయిద్యం నేర్పండి..

 పిల్లలకు గిటార్, హార్మోనియం వంటి ఏదైనా సంగీత వాయిద్యాన్ని వాయించడం నేర్పించవచ్చు. ఇది అతని IQ స్థాయిని పెంచడమే కాకుండా  గణిత నైపుణ్యాలను కూడా అభివృద్ధి చేస్తుంది.

బ్రెయిన్ గేమ్స్ సహాయపడతాయి..

పిల్లల ఉత్సాహం  IQ స్థాయిని పెంచడానికి ఉపకరిస్తాయి.  పిల్లలతో బ్రెయిన్ గేమ్స్   ఆడాలి.   మెదడు వ్యాయామ ఆటలను ఆడనివ్వాలి.  అతని మానసిక,  శారీరక అభివృద్ధికి కూడా ఇది చాలా ముఖ్యం, ఎందుకంటే పిల్లలు ఆడేటప్పుడు చాలా విషయాలు నేర్చుకుంటారు.   చెస్, క్యారమ్ లేదా బిజినెస్  ఆటలు ఆడటం నేర్పించవచ్చు.

గణిత ప్రశ్నలు..

పిల్లల మానసిక వికాసానికి, గణిత ప్రశ్నలను పరిష్కరించేలా చేయాలి. వాటిని సరదా మార్గంలో పట్టికలు లేదా కూడిక,  తీసివేత సమస్యలను పరిష్కరించేలా చేయండి. ఇలా రోజూ 10 నుంచి 15 నిమిషాల పాటు చేస్తే వారి ఐక్యూ స్థాయి పెరుగుతుంది.

ఒత్తిడిని దూరం చేయడానికి లోతైన శ్వాస..

లోతైన శ్వాస మనస్సుకు మంచి ఆలోచనలను తెస్తుంది. ఇది పిల్లలకి ప్రతిదానిపై దృష్టి పెట్టే సామర్థ్యాన్ని పెంచుతుంది,  ఒత్తిడి నుండి ఉపశమనం కలిగిస్తుంది. ఇది కాకుండా, మీరు  పిల్లలకు తేలికపాటి యోగా ఆసనాలను కూడా నేర్పించవచ్చు.

పిల్లలకు క్రమశిక్షణ ఎలా నేర్పాలి.. ప్రయోజనాలు ఏంటి..

పిల్లలకు క్రమశిక్షణ ఎలా నేర్పాలి.. ప్రయోజనాలు ఏంటి..


ప్రతిఒక్కరికీ  క్రమశిక్షణ అనేది చాలా అవసరం. పిల్లలకు చిన్నతనం నుంచే క్రమశిక్షణ నేర్పించడం చాలా ముఖ్యం. దీని ద్వారా పిల్లలు భవిష్యత్తులో ప్రయోజకులుగా మారుతారు. శ్రమ ఎప్పటికీ వృధా కాదు. మీరు మీ పిల్లలకు క్రమశిక్షణను చిన్నతనంలోనే నేర్పించాలి. కష్టపడి పనిచేయడం వల్ల కలిగే ప్రయోజనాల గురించి వారికి వివరించాలి. ఇలా పెంచిన పిల్లలు భవిష్యత్తులో ప్రయోజకులుగా మారుతారనడంలో ఎలాంటి సందేహం లేదు. తల్లిదండ్రులుగా మీరు చేయాల్సిందల్లా మీ పిల్లలను క్రమశిక్షణలో పెట్టడం. మీరు పిల్లలకి ఎక్కువ పనిని అప్పగించాల్సిన అవసరం లేదు.  బదులుగా మీరు వారి మానసిక, ప్రవర్తనా అలవాట్లను గమనించి వారిని ప్రోత్సహించాలి. తల్లిదండ్రులు తమ పిల్లల అభివృద్ధికి ఎలా సహకరించాలో ఇప్పుడు తెలుసుకుందాం.

పిల్లలకు క్రమశిక్షణ నేర్పండి:

పిల్లల భవిష్యత్తు అనేది వారి క్రమశిక్షణపై ఆధారపడి ఉంటుంది. తల్లిదండ్రులు చిన్నప్పటి నుంచే పిల్లలకు మంచి సలహాలు ఇస్తూ క్రమశిక్షణతోపాటు ప్రేమను కూడా వ్యక్తపరుస్తుండాలి. క్రమశిక్షణ అనేది పిల్లలకే కాదు పెద్దలకు కూడా వర్తిస్తుంది. పిల్లలు క్రమశిక్షణతో ఉండాలని ప్రోత్సహించినప్పుడు, వారు పట్టుదల, సంకల్పం వంటి లక్షణాలను నేర్చుకుంటారు. ఈ విషయాలు పిల్లల పాత్రచ పరస్పర చర్యలు, ఇతరులతో సంబంధాలను ఏర్పరుస్తాయి. కష్టపడి పనిచేసే పిల్లలు భవిష్యత్తులో విజయం సాధించే అవకాశాలు ఎక్కువగా ఉంటాయి. ముఖ్యంగా తల్లిదండ్రులు క్రమశిక్షణతో ఉంటే పిల్లలు కూడా అదే అలవాటు అవుతుంది. ఇదంతా తల్లిదండ్రుల ప్రవర్తనపై ఆధారపడి ఉంటుందని గమనించాలి.

పని విషయంలో కఠినమైన నియమాలను రూపొందించండి:

పిల్లలు బలమైన పని-సంబంధిత నీతిని అభివృద్ధి చేయడం ముఖ్యం. చిన్న చిన్న విషయాలు చెప్పి వారిలో ఆత్మవిశ్వాసం నింపండి. తల్లిదండ్రులు తమ పిల్లలకు అన్ని పనులు చేయగలరని విశ్వాసం కలిగించాలి.దీని ద్వారా, పిల్లలు తాము చేసిన పనికి బాధ్యత వహించడం నేర్చుకుంటారు. వారి పనిని పూర్తి చేయడానికి తమ వంతు ప్రయత్నం చేస్తారు.

ఇదొక ప్రత్యేక నైపుణ్యం:

క్రమశిక్షణ ప్రత్యేక నైపుణ్యాలను అభివృద్ధి చేస్తుంది. ఇది పిల్లలు పాఠశాలలో, వృత్తిలో, వారి వ్యక్తిగత జీవితంలో ఈ నైపుణ్యాల నుండి ప్రయోజనం పొందేందుకు అనుమతిస్తుంది. మీ పిల్లలలో ఈ నైపుణ్యాన్ని అభివృద్ధి చేయడానికి సమయం పట్టవచ్చు. అలాగే, దీనికి తల్లిదండ్రుల నుండి చాలా ఓపిక అవసరం. పిల్లలను అనవసరమైన ఒత్తిడికి గురిచేయకూడదు.

ఒత్తిడికి గురిచేయవద్దు:

క్రమశిక్షణ పేరుతో మీ పిల్లలను ఒత్తిడికి గురిచేయకూడదు. పిల్లల వయస్సుకు తగిన అంచనాలు ఉండాలి. పిల్లలపై ఎక్కువ ఒత్తిడి పెడితే చిన్న వయసులోనే డిప్రెషన్ లోకి వెళ్లే ప్రమాదం ఉంటుంది. పిల్లలకు ముందుగా సులభమైన పనులు ఇచ్చి, క్రమంగా వారి స్థాయిని పెంచుతుండాలి.  దీంతో పిల్లల్లో ఆత్మవిశ్వాసం కూడా పెరుగుతుంది. అలాగే పిల్లవాడు చాలా నేర్చుకోవచ్చు. మంచి దినచర్యలో ఇంటి పని కూడా ఉంటుంది. అది అబ్బాయి అయినా సరే... అమ్మాయి అయినా సరే.

పిల్లలు ప్రశంసిస్తుండాలి:

పొగడ్తలను ప్రేమించే పిల్లలను ప్రశంసించడం ద్వారా వారికి క్రమశిక్షణ నేర్పించవచ్చు. కల్మషం లేని హృదయానికి ప్రేమ, శ్రద్ధ అవసరం. ఇది మీ బిడ్డకు తల్లిదండ్రులుగా ఇవ్వవచ్చు. పిల్లలు ఏదైనా మంచి చేసినప్పుడు వారిని మెచ్చుకోండి. వారి ప్రయత్నాలను గుర్తించడం ద్వారా వారి విజయానికి బాసటగా మారుతుంది.


పిల్లలు జీవితంలో సక్సెస్ కావాలంటే వారి చదువు ఎలా ఉండాలో తెలుసా!

పిల్లలు జీవితంలో సక్సెస్ కావాలంటే వారి చదువు ఎలా ఉండాలో తెలుసా?
 

చదువుకోరా గాడిదా అని చిన్నపిల్లలను  పెద్దలు ఒక్కసారి అయినా తిట్టే ఉంటారు, ఇప్పటి పెద్దలు కూడా తమ చిన్నతనంలో  తమ తల్లిదండ్రులతో తిట్టించుకునే ఉంటారు. చదువుకోవాల్సిన వయసులో దాని విలువ అర్థం కాలేదు, వయసైపోయిన తరువాత చదువు విలువ అర్థం అవుతుందని చాలామంది చెబుతారు. ఈ కారణంగానే  పెద్దలు తమ పిల్లల చదువు విషయంలో కఠినంగా ఉంటుంటారు. కానీ పిల్లలు అందరూ ఒకేలా చదవరు, ఒక్కొక్కరు  ఒకోవిధంగా చదువుతుంటారు. చదువుతున్నప్పుడు పిల్లలు తరచూ ఒక అంశాన్ని పునరావృతం చేస్తూ  నేర్చుకోవడానికి ప్రయత్నిస్తారు, దీనిని రోట్ లెర్నింగ్ అని తెలుగులో బట్టీ పట్టడం అని అంటారు. ఒకరి జ్ఞాపకశక్తి ఎంత మెరుగ్గా ఉంటే పరీక్షలో సమాధానాలు అంత బాగా వ్రాస్తారని, దాని ద్వారా వచ్చే  ఫలితం ఆధారంగా అతన్ని తెలివైన పిల్లవాడు అని పిలుస్తారు. అయితే లోతుగా ఆలోచిస్తే అలాంటి పిల్లలు నిజంగా తెలివైన వారా?  నిజంగా భవిష్యత్తులో  గొప్పగా మారుతార? అంటే ఖచ్చితమైన సమాధానం లేదు! పరీక్షలలో మంచి ఫలితాలు సాధించే  పిల్లలు  ఏదైనా విషయాన్ని గుర్తుంచుకోవడంలో చాలా మంచి జ్ఞాపకశక్తి కలిగి ఉంటారు.  కానీ  జీవితానికి సంబంధించిన నిజమైన జ్ఞానాన్ని కోల్పోతారని పరిశోధకులు కూడా చెబుతున్నారు.   వారు  తమ చదువును కూడా సరిగా వినియోగించుకోలేరు.

 విద్య అంటే నేర్చుకోవడం.  జీవితాన్ని అర్థవంతంగా మార్చుకోవడానికి  పాఠశాల విద్య ఆధారమవుతుంది. అందువల్ల జీవితంలో సక్సెస్ కావడానికి ఏ విషయాన్ని అయినా లోతుగా అర్థం చేసుకోవడం కావాలి తప్ప విషయాన్ని గుర్తుంచుకోవడం కాదు కావాల్సింది. అంటే పిల్లలు ఏదైనా విషయాలను గుర్తుంచుకోవడం కంటే ఆ విషయాలను అర్థం చేసుకోవాలి. ఇలా అర్థం చేసుకోవడం వల్ల పిల్లల  జీవితం  అటు విద్యాపరంగానూ, ఇటు జీవితపరంగానూ  ఎదుగుతుంది.

గుర్తుంచుకోవడం కంటే విషయాలను అర్థం చేసుకోవడం ఎందుకు మంచిదంటే..

బట్టీ పట్టడం ద్వారా పిల్లలు  శబ్ద జ్ఞానాన్ని పొందుతారు అప్పుడు వారికి  పదాలు మాత్రమే మనస్సులో నిలిచిపోతాయి. పిల్లవాడు ఇలా చదివితే అతను  కంఠస్థం చేసిన పదాల సంఖ్యకు అతని అభివృద్ది  పరిమితమవుతుంది.  అదే ఒక విషయాన్ని బాగా అర్థం చేసుకుంటే విషయ పరిజ్ఞానం పెరుగుతూ పోతుంది.

బట్టీ పట్టే ప్రక్రియ కారణంగా పిల్లల మానసిక ఎదుగుదల  సరిగా ఉండదు. విషయాలను లోతుగా అర్థం చేసుకోవడం అనేది ఒకరి మేధో సామర్థ్యాన్ని పెంచే విషయాలపై మంచి అవగాహనకు దారి తీస్తుంది.

బట్టీ పట్టడం వల్ల పిల్లలు అలసిపోతారు. పిల్లలు కాన్సెప్ట్‌లను అర్థం చేసుకోకుండా విషయాలను కంఠస్థం చేసినప్పుడు  నీరసం వస్తుంది. మెదడు అలసిపోతుంది.

బట్టీ పట్టి చదివే పిల్లలు నిజ జీవితంలో ఏ విషయాన్ని ఒక పద్దతి ప్రకారం ఆచరించలేరు.  విషయాన్ని అర్థం చేసుకోవడం,  రాయడం ద్వారా పిల్లలు మరింత సమర్థవంతంగా ఉంటారు.  జీవితంలోని కష్ట సమయాల్లో కూడా  ఆ పరిస్థితులను అర్థం చేసుకోవడానికి ప్రయత్నిస్తారు. దీనివల్ల వారి ఎదుగుదల అద్భుతంగా ఉంటుంది.

జ్ఞాపకం అనేది స్వల్పకాలిక ప్రక్రియ. ఇది కొద్దికాలం మాత్రమే  ప్రభావవంతంగా ఉంటుంది. కొన్నిరోజుల తరువాత విషయాన్ని మరచిపోతారు. అందుకే పదే పదే రివిజన్ చేయాల్సి ఉంటుంది. అదే  విషయాన్ని అర్థం చేసుకున్న తర్వాత  దాన్ని రాయడం అలవాటు చేసుకుంటే అది చాలాకాలం పాటు గుర్తిండిపోతుంది.

అందుకే పెద్దలు పిల్లలకు విషయాన్ని అర్థం చేసుకుని చదివే దిశగా మార్గనిర్దేశం చేయాలి.  అవసరమైతే చిన్న చిన్న ఉదాహరణలు చెబుతుండాలి. ఎంతసేపు మార్కుల కోణంలో పిల్లలను సతాయించకుండా పిల్లల ఆలోచనా పరిధి ఏంటి అనే విషయాన్ని గుర్తించాలి.

చర్మానికి విటమిన్-కె ఎందుకు అవసరమో తెలుసా!

చర్మానికి విటమిన్-కె ఎందుకు అవసరమో తెలుసా!

చర్మం  ఆరోగ్యంగా ఉండటానికి  ప్రోటీన్లు, విటమిన్లు కూడా అవసరం అవుతాయి. ముఖ్యంగా విటమిన్-కె చర్మసంరక్షణలో చాలా అవసరం. అందరూ విటమిన్-ఇ గురించి మాట్లాడతారు కానీ విటమిన్-కె గురించి అస్సలు తెలియనే తెలియదు. అందుకే  ముఖ చర్మానికి విటమిన్-కె ఎందుకు అవసరమో తెలుసుకుంటే చర్మాన్ని ఆరోగ్యంగా ఉంచుకోవచ్చు.

చర్మానికి విటమిన్-కె చేసే మేలు..

విటమిన్-కె చర్మం మీద వాపులు, దురదలు తగ్గించడంలో సహాయపడుతుంది.  దీనికారణంగా ఇది తామర వంటి దారుణమైన సమస్యలను కూడా తగ్గించగలదు.

చర్మం ఆరోగ్యంగా, యవ్వనంగా ఉండాలంటే కొల్లాజెన్ చాలా అవసరం.  కొల్లాజెన్ చర్మానికి ఎలాస్టిక్ స్వభావాన్ని ఇస్తుంది. ఫలితంగా చర్మం మీద ముడతలు పడకుండా చేస్తుంది. అయితే విటమిన్-కె కొల్లాజెన్ ఉత్పత్తిని ప్రేరేపిస్తుంది. ఇది చర్మం స్థితిస్థాపకతను పెంచుతుంది.

కళ్లకింద నల్లని వలయాల గురించి ఆందోళన చెందని వారు ఉండనే ఉండరు. కానీ విటమిన్-కె దీనికి చెక్ పెడుతుంది. కళ్ల కింద నల్లగా మారిన చర్మంలో రక్తనాళాలు బలహీనంగా ఉంటాయి. ఈ రక్తనాళాలను బలోపేతం చేయడం ద్వారా కళ్లకింద నల్లటి వలయాలు తగ్గించడంలో విటమిన్-కె సహాయపడుతుంది.

చర్మం మీద చాలామందికి నరాలు ఉబ్బినట్టు కనిపిస్తుంటాయి. వీటిని స్పైడర్ సిరలు అని అంటారు. ఈ స్పైడర్ సిరల రూపాన్ని తగ్గించడంలో విటమిన్-కె సహాయపడుతుంది.

చాలామందిలో పరిష్కారం కాని సమస్యగా మిగిలిపోయిన డార్క్ స్పాట్స్, వయసు వల్ల వచ్చే ముడతలు, మచ్చలు మొదలైనవాటికి విటమిన్-కె భలే పరిష్కారం. హైపర్ పిగ్మెంటేషన్ ను తగ్గించడంలో కూడా విటమినే-కె సమర్థవంతంగా పనిచేస్తుంది.

చర్మానికి కలిగే మంటలు, ఆక్సీకరణ ఒత్తిడి, సూర్యుని హానికరమైన యువి కిరణాల నుండి చర్మాన్ని రక్షించడంలో కూడా విటమిన్-కె సహాయపడుతుంది.

విటమిన్-కె కొత్త చర్మకణాలు ఏర్పడటాన్ని, రక్తం గడ్డకట్టడాన్ని ప్రోత్సహిస్తుంది. ఇవి రెండూ గాయాలు తొందరగా నయం కావడానికి సహాయపడతాయి.

ముఖ చర్మం పాడవుతోందా.. మీరూ  ఈ తప్పులు  చేస్తున్నారేమో.!

ముఖ చర్మం పాడవుతోందా... మీరూ  ఈ తప్పులు  చేస్తున్నారేమో!
 

 

అమ్మాయిలలో ఎక్కువగా ఆకర్షించేది ముఖమే. ముఖం అందంగా ఉంటే ఫిజికల్ ఫిట్నెస్ మరింత ఆకర్షణగా మారుతుంది.  చర్మం రంగు ఏదైనా సరే ముఖం చక్కగా, కాంతివంతంగా, మొటిమలు, మచ్చలు ఏవీ లేకుండా ఉంటే చాలా బాగుంటుంది. కానీ  అలాంటి ముఖం చాలా తక్కువ మందికి ఉంటుంది.  అయితే ముఖం మీద మచ్చలు, ముడతలు, మొటిమల తాలూకు గుర్తులు ఏవీ లేకుండా ఉండటం కోసం ఎన్నో రకాల బ్యూటీ ఉత్పత్తులు వాడతారు. ఫేస్ క్రీములు, లోషన్లు, ఫేస్  వాష్ లు ఇలా చాలా ఉపయోగిస్తారు. కానీ విచిత్రం ఏమిటంటే ఈ ఉత్పత్తులన్నీ మంచి వాసన వస్తాయి తప్ప చర్మాన్నిమాత్రం బాగు చెయ్యవు.  చర్మం చక్కబడాలంటే దానికి కావల్సింది  వాణిజ్య ఉత్పత్తులు ఉపయోగించడం కాదు, చర్మాన్ని శుభ్రం చేసే విధానం తెలుసుకోవడం. ఫేస్ వాష్ చేయడంలో  చాలామంది చేస్తున్న మిస్టేక్స్ ఏంటో తెలుసుకుని వాటిని  సరిచేసుకోవడం అవసరం.

క్లెన్సర్..

ముఖాన్ని శుభ్రం చేసుకోవడానికి సరైన క్లెన్సర్ ఎంచుకోవడం తప్పనిసరి. చాలామంది కొంటున్నారనో, మార్కెట్లో వైరల్ అవుతోందనో క్లెన్సర్ కొనుగోలు చేయకూడదు.  చర్మాన్ని బట్టి క్లెన్సర్ ఎంచుకోవాలి. ఇలా చేస్తే చర్మానికి ఎటువంటి నష్టం కలగదు. ఆశించిన ఫలితాలు కూడా ఇస్తాయి. ఒకవేళ ఏదైనా క్లెన్సర్ ఉపయోగించగానే ముఖం మీద గుల్లలు, దద్దుర్లు, ముఖ చర్మం ఎర్రబడటం వంటివి జరిగితే అలాంటి క్లెన్సర్ కు దూరం ఉండాలి.

వేడినీరు వద్దు..

ముఖం శుభ్రం చేసుకోవడానికి కొందరు వేడినీరు ఉపయోగిస్తారు. దీనివల్ల చర్మం శుభ్రపడుతుందని అంటారు. కానీ వేడినీటితో ముఖం కడిగితే ముఖ చర్మంలో ఉన్న తేమ కోల్పోతారు. అదే చల్లని నీటితో కడితే ముఖ చర్మం తేమ కోల్పోదు.

రుద్దకూడదు..

ముఖం కడిగేటప్పుడు   క్లెన్సర్ లేదా సోప్ వంటివి ఉపయోగించే ముందు ముఖాన్ని గట్టిగా రుద్దుతూ ఉంటారు. ఇలా చేస్తే చర్మం దెబ్బతింటుంది.  మృదుత్వం కోల్పోయి చర్మం రఫ్ గా మారిపోతుంది. అంతేకాదు చర్మ రంధ్రాలు కూడా సాగిపోవడానికి అస్కారం ఉంటుంది.

ముందు జాగ్రత్త..

ముఖం కడుక్కోవడానికి ముందు చేతులు  శుభ్రం చేసుకోవడం తప్పనిసరి. చేతులు శుభ్రం చేసుకోకుండా ముఖం కడుక్కుంటే  చేతులలో ఉన్న మురికి ముఖ చర్మానికి అంటుకుంటుంది. ఇది ముఖం మీద మొటిమలు, గుల్లలు, దద్దుర్లు, ముఖం రంగుమారడం వంటి సమస్యలకు కారణం అవుతుంది.

 జుట్టు అందంగా ఉంచుకోవడం అమ్మాయిలకు ఇష్టం. కానీ ఎంత ప్రయత్నం చేసినా చాలామంది జుట్టు అందంగా ఉండదు. మరీ ముఖ్యంగా చలికాలంలో జుట్టు సంబంధ సమస్యలు కూడా అధికం అవుతాయి. చలిగాలుల కారణంగా జుట్టులో తేమ కోల్పోయి పొడిబారుతుంది. జుట్టు జీవం కోల్పోయినట్టు టెంకాయ పీచులాగా కనిపిస్తుంది. కొందరికి చలికాలంలో చుండ్రు సమస్య కూడా వస్తుంది. ఈ సమస్యలేవీ ఉండకూదన్నా, జుట్టు ఆరోగ్యంగా పట్టుకుచ్చులా మెరవాలన్నా కింది అయిదు హెయిర్ ప్యాకులు వాడితే సరి..

కప్పు మందార పూలతో జుట్టు మెరుస్తుందండోయ్. మందార పువ్వులను రెక్కలుగా విడదీసి రాత్రంతా నీళ్లలో నానబెట్టాలి. మరుసటిరోజు దాన్ని మిక్సీలో వేసి మెత్తగా పేస్ట్ చేయాలి. ఇందులో ఒకటి లేదా రెండు స్పూన్ల ఆలివ్ ఆయిల్ వేసి బాగా కలపాలి. దీన్ని కూడా జుట్టు కుదుళ్ల నుండి చివర్ల వరకు అప్లై చేయాలి. గంట సేపు  అలాగే ఉంచి ఆ తరువాత తలస్నానం చెయ్యాలి.  ఈ ప్యాక్ జుట్టును మెరిపిస్తుంది.

పెరుగు..

ఇంట్లో ఎప్పుడూ నిల్వ ఉండే పెరుగు జుట్టును పట్టుకుచ్చులా మారుస్తుంది. పెరుగులో ఒక చెంచా తేనె, చెంచా బాదం నూనె కలపాలి. దీన్ని బాగా కలిపి జుట్టుకు పట్టించాలి. ఇరవై నిమిషాలు అలాగే ఉంచి తరువాత  గాఢత లేని షాంపూతో తలస్నానం చెయ్యాలి.

పాలు, తేనె..

పాలలో తేనె కలుపుని తాగితే అమృతంలా ఉంటుంది. కానీ ఈ రెండూ కలిపి మిక్స్ చేసి హెయిర్ ప్యాక్ వేస్తే జుట్టు పట్టుకుచ్చులా మెరుస్తుంది. ఈ ప్యాక్ రిమూవ్ చేయడానికి గాఢత లేని షాంపూను మాత్రమే వాడాలి. లేదంటే మెరుపు కోల్పోతారు. ఇది జుట్టు పెరుగుదను కూడా ప్రోత్సహిస్తుంది.

అరటిపండు..

అరటిపండు శరీర ఆరోగ్యానికే కాదు సౌందర్య సాధనంగా కూడా భలే ఉపయోగపడుతుంది. కాస్త పండిన అరటిపండు ముక్కలు, కొన్ని చుక్కల బాదం నూనె కలిపి మిక్సీ పట్టాలి. మెత్తగా అయిన ఈ పేస్ట్ ను జుట్టు కుదుళ్ల నుండి అంచుల వరకు అప్లై చెయ్యాలి.  ఆరిన తరువాత గోరువెచ్చని నీటితో తల స్నానం చెయ్యాలి. ఇది తలలో రక్తప్రసరణ మెరుగుపరుస్తుంది. జుట్టును పట్టుకుచ్చులా మారుస్తుంది. డాండ్రఫ్ సమస్య తొలగిస్తుంది.

                   
(గమనిక: ఈ హెయిర్ ప్యాక్ లు  వివిధ వేదికలలో హెయిర్ కేర్ నిపుణులు సూచించినవి. సైనస్ సమస్యలు, జుట్టు సంబంధ సమస్యలుంటే వైద్యులను సంప్రదించడం మంచిది.)

చలికాలంలో చర్మం పగలకుండా ఉండాలంటే ఈ చిట్కాలు మీ కోసం!


చలికాలం మనకు వణుకు పుట్టించడమే కాకుండా చర్మ ఆరోగ్యంపై కూడా ప్రభావం చూపుతుంది. మన చర్మంలో పగుళ్లు ఏర్పడతాయి. సబ్బుతో కడిగితే మరింత దెబ్బతింటుంది. ముఖ్యంగా పెదవులు, అరచేతులు, పాదాలు పగుళ్లు ఏర్పడతాయి. కాబట్టి చలికాలం ప్రారంభం నుంచే చర్మ సంరక్షణపై ఎక్కువ శ్రద్ధ వహిస్తే చర్మాన్ని మునుపటిలా కాపాడుకోవచ్చు. దాని కోసం ఇక్కడ కొన్ని చిట్కాలు ఉన్నాయి.

పగిలిన పెదవుల కోసం:

శీతాకాలంలో మీ పెదాలు పగలడం సహజం, దీనికి కారణం మీ శరీరంలో నీటి శాతం తగ్గడమే. అలాంటి సమయంలో మీ పెదవుల చుట్టూ ఉన్న చర్మం పొడిగా మారి పగిలిపోతుంది. ఈ సమయంలో మీరు లిప్ స్క్రబ్‌ని ఉపయోగించాలి. తర్వాత కావాలంటే లిప్ స్టిక్ వేసుకోవచ్చు. మీరు స్క్రబ్ ఉపయోగించకుండా లిప్‌స్టిక్‌ను అప్లై చేస్తే, అది మీ పెదాలను దెబ్బతీస్తుంది.
 
మాయిశ్చరైజర్ ఉపయోగించండి:

చలికాలంలో ముఖం కూడా బాగా డ్రైగా మారి ముఖంపై మృతకణాలు పెరుగుతాయి. ఈ కారణంగా, మాయిశ్చరైజర్‌ను క్రమం తప్పకుండా ఉపయోగించడం మర్చిపోవద్దు. మీ చర్మ రకాన్ని బట్టి  మాయిశ్చరైజర్‌ని ఉపయోగించడం వల్ల మీ చర్మం హైడ్రేటెడ్‌గా ఉంటుంది. పొడిగా మారదు.

వేడి స్నానం అంత మంచిది కాదు:

చలికాలంలో వేడి నీటి స్నానం చేయడం వల్ల చర్మం పొడిబారడమే కాకుండా చర్మ సమస్యలు వచ్చే ప్రమాదం ఉందని చర్మ నిపుణులు అంటున్నారు. ఎందుకంటే మన చర్మం సహజసిద్ధమైన మాయిశ్చరైజర్ కోల్పోతుంది. దీని వల్ల చర్మంలో తేమ స్థాయి మునుపటిలా ఉండదు. ఇది మీ చర్మాన్ని కఠినం చేస్తుందని చెప్పవచ్చు.

హ్యాండ్ క్రీమ్‌ వాడాలి:

చలికాలంలో మీ ముఖం, చేతులు మాత్రమే కాదు. మీ అరచేతులపై ఉన్న చర్మం కూడా పగిలి పోతుంది. ముఖ్యంగా కొంతమందికి అరచేతి చర్మం ముడతలు పడిపోతుంది. కాబట్టి మీ చర్మం మృదువుగా ఉండటానికి హ్యాండ్ క్రీమ్ అప్లై చేయడం మర్చిపోవద్దు.

మాయిశ్చరైజర్‌ను ఎలా ఉపయోగించాలో తెలుసుకోండి:

చలికాలంలో మీ చర్మ ఆరోగ్యాన్ని కాపాడుకోవడానికి, మీకు మాయిశ్చరైజర్ అవసరం. కాబట్టి స్నానం చేసిన తర్వాత లేదా ఫేస్ వాష్ ఉపయోగించిన తర్వాత చర్మానికి మాయిశ్చరైజర్ రాయడం మర్చిపోవద్దు.


 


చలికాలంలో మీ జుట్టు పీచుగా మారుతోందా..అయితే ఈ చిట్కాలు మీ కోసం!


చలికాలంలో మీ జుట్టు పీచుగా మారుతోందా..అయితే ఈ చిట్కాలు మీ కోసం!

అందమైన, పొడవాటి జుట్టు ప్రతి అమ్మాయి కోరిక. చలికాలంలో జుట్టు నిర్జీవంగా మారుతుంది. ముఖ్యంగా చల్లని గాలులు మీ వెంట్రుకల కుదుళ్లను  చికాకుపరుస్తాయి. చల్లదనం వల్ల ఈ సీజన్‌లో వేడి నీటితో తలస్నానం చేయడం సహజం, అంతేకాదు వివిధ రకాల షాంపూలు, కండీషనర్‌లను ఉపయోగిస్తారు. దీని కారణంగా జుట్టు రంగు కూడా తగ్గుతుంది. అందుకే ఈ చలికాలంలో  జుట్టుపై ప్రత్యేక శ్రద్ధ అవసరం.

చలికాలంలో తక్కువగా తలస్నానం చేస్తుంటాం. ఇలా చేయడం వల్ల తలపై మలాసెజియా అనే ఫంగస్ అనేక రెట్లు పెరుగుతుందని నిపుణులు చెబుతున్నారు. ఇది జుట్టును శుభ్రం చేసుకోకపోవడం వల్ల వేగంగా వ్యాపిస్తుంది. ఈ సీజన్‌లో, జుట్టును ఫంగస్ నుండి రక్షించడానికి, జుట్టును అందంగా మార్చడానికి ప్రత్యేక శ్రద్ధ అవసరం. శీతాకాలంలో జుట్టును ఎలా సంరక్షించుకోవాలో తెలుసుకుందాం.

హెయిర్ మాస్క్ వేసుకోండి: 

శీతాకాలంలో మీ జుట్టును జాగ్రత్తగా చూసుకోవడానికి , మీ జుట్టుకు హెయిర్ మాస్క్ వేసుకుంటే మంచిది.  మీ వెంట్రుకలు మాయిశ్చర్ పోకుండా  తేమగా ఉండేందుకు జుట్టు మీద ముసుగు వేసుకోవాలి. అలోవెరా, షియా బటర్, నూనెతో కూడిన హెయిర్ మాస్క్‌ని జుట్టుకు అప్లై చేయండి.

జుట్టుపై కండీషనర్‌ను తప్పకుండా అప్లై చేయండి: 

చలికాలంలో తరచుగా మహిళలు విపరీతమైన చలి కారణంగా జుట్టుపై కండీషనర్‌ను ఉపయోగించరు. కండీషనర్ లేకుండా, జుట్టు పొడిగా మారుతుంది. చలికాలంలో జుట్టు సంరక్షణకు కండీషనర్ బాగా ఉపయోగపడుతుంది.

గోరువెచ్చని నీటితో జుట్టును కడగాలి: 

శీతాకాలంలో, వేడి నీరు జుట్టు యొక్క మెరుపును తొలగిస్తుంది, అటువంటి పరిస్థితిలో, జుట్టును కడగడానికి గోరువెచ్చని నీటిని ఉపయోగించండి.

నూనెతో జుట్టుకు మసాజ్ చేయండి: 

చలికాలంలో మీ వెంట్రుకలకు ఆలివ్ నూనెతో మసాజ్ చేయడం మంచిది. ఆలివ్ జుట్టుకు పోషణను అందిస్తుంది. వెంట్రుకల పొడి తనాన్ని కూడా తొలగిస్తుంది.

ఎక్కువ నీరు త్రాగాలి:

చలికాలంలో తక్కువ నీరు త్రాగాలి, శరీరానికి నీరు పుష్కలంగా ఉండటం అవసరం. అందాన్ని పెంచడంలో నీరు చాలా ప్రభావవంతంగా పనిచేస్తుంది. ఎక్కువ నీరు తాగడం వల్ల కూడా జుట్టు హైడ్రేటెడ్‌గా ఉంటుంది.
 


చలికాలంలో చర్మం ఆరోగ్యంగా ఉండాలంటే ఈ టిప్స్ బెస్ట్..!

చలికాలంలో చర్మం ఆరోగ్యంగా ఉండాలంటే ఈ టిప్స్ బెస్ట్..!

చలికాలం చర్మానికి మా చెడ్డ కాలం అని చెప్పవచ్చు. చర్మ సంబంధ సమస్యలు చాలా వస్తాయి. ఇవి శరీరం మొత్తం చర్మాన్ని కూడా ప్రభావితం చేస్తాయి. ఈ కారణంగా అసౌకర్యం కలిగితే అది రోజులో చేసే ఎన్నో పనులలో ఇబ్బందులు కలిగిస్తుంది. అందుకే చలికాలంలో చర్మాన్ని మృదువుగా ఉంచుకోవడానికి కింది సింపుల్ చిట్కాలు ఫాలో అవ్వాలి.

ఉదయం లేచి స్నానం చేశాకే ఉద్యోగాలకు, కాలేజీలకు  వెళతారు.  అయితే స్నానం చేసేటప్పుడు జాగ్రత్తగా ఉండకపోతే చర్మం దారుణంగా దెబ్బతింటుంది. చలికాలంలో స్నానాన్ని కేవలం 5 నుండి 10 నిమిషాలలోపు ముగించాలి. ఇలా చేస్తే చర్మం రోజంతా తేమగా ఉంటుంది. ఎక్కువసేపు నీటిలో తడిస్తే చర్మం పొడిబారుతుంది.

బాగా చలిగా ఉంది కదా అని బాగా వేడిగా ఉన్న నీటితో స్నానం చేస్తుంటారు. అయితే చాలా వేడిగా ఉన్న నీళ్ళు శరీరానికి బాగా అనిపించినా చర్మ రంధ్రాలు సహజంగా ఉత్పత్తి చేసే నూనెలు ఆగిపోతాయి. దీని వల్ల చర్మం చాలా తొందరగా పొడిబారుతుంది. అందుకే ఎప్పుడూ గోరువెచ్చని నీళ్లతో మాత్రమే స్నానం చెయ్యాలి.

చలి నుండి చర్మాన్ని కాపాడుకోవడానికి చాలామంది బ్యూటీ ఉత్పత్తులు వాడతారు. అయితే రసాయనాలు  అధికంగా ఉన్న ఉత్పత్తులు వాడితే చర్మం దెబ్బతింటుంది. అందుకే సహజమైన మాయిశ్చరైజర్ వాడాలి.

పెదవులు పగలకుండా ఉండాలంటే లిప్ బామ్ తప్పనిసరిగా వాడతారు. కానీ దీన్ని పదే పదే రాయకూడదు. రోజులో రెండు మూడుసార్లు రాస్తేసరిపోతుంది. అది కూడా సహజమైన లిప్ బామ్ బెస్ట్.

 చలికాలంలో ఎక్కువ దాహం వేయదు. కానీ చలికాలంలో నీరు తాగడం తగ్గిస్తే చర్మం తొందరగా ముడతలు పడుతుంది. అందుకే తగినంత నీటిని తాగాలి.

సన్ స్క్రీన్ అంటే వేసవిలోనే ఉపయోగిస్తారనే అపోహ చాలామందిలో ఉంది. కానీ చలికాలంలో కూడా సన్ స్క్రీన్ వాడాలి. ఇది చర్మాన్ని రక్షిస్తుంది.

చలి నుండి శరీరాన్ని కాపాడుకునేందుకు స్వెట్టర్లు, జాకెట్ లు, సాక్సులు, గ్లౌజులు ఉపయోగించాలి. ఇవి శరీరాన్ని వెచ్చగా ఉంచుతాయి. చలి కారణంగా చర్మం దెబ్బతినకుండా చేస్తాయి.

చలికాలంలో పైన చెప్పుకున్న సంరక్షణా చర్యలు మాత్రమే కాకుండా ఆహారం విషయంలోనూ జాగ్రత్తలు తీసుకోవాలి. సమతుల్య ఆహారం తప్పనిసరి. ఇమ్యూనిటీ పెంచే ఆహారాలు, పండ్లు తీసుకోవాలి. సీజనల్ ఫుడ్స్ అస్సలు మిస్ కాకూడదు.

మీ పిల్లల ఎదుగుదలకు ఈ హోంమేడ్ సెరెలాక్ ఇవ్వండి.!

 


శిశువుకు 6 నెలల వయస్సు వచ్చిన తర్వాత అవసరమైన పోషకాహారం పొందడానికి ఆహారం ఇస్తుంటాం. అందుకు ఆరు నెలల పిల్లలకు ఆహారంలో సెరెలాక్ ను చేర్చుతుంటారు.  కానీ మార్కెట్‌లో లభించే సెరెలాక్‌లో చక్కెర, పిల్లల వయస్సు, ఆరోగ్యానికి సరిపోని అనేక ఇతర పదార్థాలు ఉండవచ్చు. అటువంటి పరిస్థితిలో, మార్కెట్ లభించే  సెరెలాక్‌కు బదులుగా ఇంట్లో తయారుచేసిన సెరెలాక్‌తో శిశువుకు ఆహారం ఇవ్వడం మంచిది. సెరెలాక్‌లో షుగర్‌ ఉంటుందని...దానిని తినిపించడం వల్ల పిల్లల్లో తీపి తినే ధోరణి పెరుగుతుందని వైద్యులు అంటున్నారు.  మీరు చిన్న వయస్సులో మీ పిల్లలకు ప్రతిరోజూ ఏదైనా తీపి తినిపించడం ప్రారంభిస్తే, వారు తర్వాత తీపి దంతాల అలవాటును పెంచుకోవచ్చు. అటువంటి పరిస్థితిలో, మీరు మీ పిల్లల కోసం ఇంట్లో సెరెలాక్ సిద్ధం చేయవచ్చు. డాక్టర్ సూచించిన విధంగా ఇంట్లో సెరెలాక్ సిద్ధం చేయడానికి రెసిపీ ఇక్కడ ఉంది.

ఇంట్లో సెరెలాక్ రెసిపీ:

ముందుగా 1 కప్పు మిక్స్డ్ గ్రెయిన్స్ తీసుకుని అందులో అరకప్పు మిక్స్డ్ పప్పులతో కలపాలి. మిశ్రమ ధాన్యాలలో గోధుమ, బియ్యం, బార్లీ, మిల్లెట్ తీసుకోండి. అంతేకాకుండా, పప్పుధాన్యాలలో, మీరు పొట్టు, పొడుగ్గా, మసూర్ పప్పు,  చిక్‌పీలను తీసుకోవాలి. మీరు వాటిని మొలకెత్తినవి తీసుకుంటే మరిన్ని ప్రయోజనాలను పొందుతారు.

సెరెలాక్ ఎలా తయారు చేయాలి?

ముందుగా వీటన్నింటినీ వేయించి మిక్సీలో వేసి గ్రైండ్ చేసుకోవాలి. ఇప్పుడు ఈ పొడిని గాలి చొరబడని డబ్బాలో నిల్వ చేయండి. అందులో అర చెంచా శనగ పొడి, నువ్వుల పొడి వేయాలి. ఇప్పుడు వీటన్నింటిని నెయ్యిలో వేయించి అందులో కొన్ని నీళ్లు పోసి ఉడికించాలి. మీరు అందులో మీ పిల్లలకు నచ్చిన పండ్లు,  కూరగాయలను మిక్స్ చేసుకోవచ్చు, ఏదైనా పండు, కూరగాయలను కలిపే ముందు మీరు వాటిని ఉడికించాలి.

NCBI ప్రకారం, పప్పులు ఒక అద్భుతమైన శక్తి వనరు, శిశువు తల్లి పాలు తాగడం మానేసినప్పుడు, పప్పుల వినియోగం తప్పనిసరి అవుతుంది. ఇందులో ప్రోటీన్లు, ఇనుము, విటమిన్లు, ఖనిజాలు, బయోయాక్టివ్ పదార్థాలు ఉంటాయి.

తృణధాన్యాలు యొక్క ప్రయోజనాలు:

తృణధాన్యాలు ఫైబర్, బి విటమిన్లు, జింక్, మెగ్నీషియం, మాంగనీస్ కలిగి ఉంటాయి. ఫైబర్ సహాయంతో, శిశువు యొక్క జీర్ణవ్యవస్థ సరిగ్గా పని చేస్తుంది. జింక్, మెగ్నీషియం శరీరం యొక్క రోగనిరోధక వ్యవస్థ పనితీరుకు సహాయపడతాయి.  మాంగనీస్ శిశువు పెరుగుదల, మెదడు అభివృద్ధికి సహాయపడుతుంది.

బ్యూటీ క్రీములు కాదండోయ్.. ఈ అయిదు  తింటే నిత్యయవ్వనంగా ఉంటారు!

ఆహారమే ఆరోగ్యం అని అంటారు. కానీ చాలామంది జిహ్వచాపల్యం కోసం ఆహారాన్ని తీసుకుంటారు. దీనికారణంగా శరీరం తొందరగా వృద్దాప్యం బారన పడుతుంది. చాలామంది చిన్నవయసులోనే అంకుల్స్, ఆంటీలుగా కనబడటానికి ఇదే ప్రధాన కారణం. అయితే ఇలా చిన్న వయసులోనే వృద్దాప్యం అటాక్ చేయడం వల్ల చాలామంది బ్యూటీ ఉత్పత్తులను ఆశ్రయిస్తారు. ఫలానా క్రీము రాసుకుంటే చర్మం మీద ముడతలు పోతాయని, ఫలానావి వాడితే చర్మం తెల్లగా మారుతుందని, మచ్చలు లేని ముఖ సౌందర్యం సొంతమవుతుందని.. ఇలా రకాలుగానే ప్రజలను ఆకర్షిస్తారు. కానీ ఇలా చిన్నవయసులోనే పెద్దవాళ్లుగా కనిపించడానికి కారణం కొల్లాజెన్ లోపించడం. కొల్లాజెన్ తిరిగి భర్తీ కావడానికి కొన్ని ఆహారాలున్నాయి.    బ్యూటీ ప్రోడక్ట్స్, క్రీములు వంటివి ఓ పక్కన పెట్టేసి కింద చెప్పుకున్న ఆహారాలు తీసుకుంటే చాలు.. కొద్దిరోజుల్లోనే తిరిగి యవ్వనంగా కనిపిస్తారు.

అసలు కొల్లాజెన్ అంటే ఏంటి?

కొల్లాజెన్ అనేది ఒక ప్రోటీన్. శరీరం 30శాతం కొల్లాజెన్ తోనే రూపొందించబడి ఉంటుంది. ఇది చర్మం, కండరాలు, ఎముకలు బలంగా, యవ్వనంగా ఉండటానికి సహాయపడుతుంది. సాధారణంగా వయసు పెరిగే కొద్దీ శరీరంలో కొల్లాజెన్ విచ్చిన్నమవుతూ ఉంటుంది. శరీరంలో కొత్త కొల్లాజెన్ ఉత్పత్తి అయ్యే ప్రక్రియ కూడా తగ్గుతుంది. అందుకే కొల్లాజెన్ ఉత్పత్తి చేసే ఆహారాన్ని తినాలి.

అశ్వగంధ..

అశ్వగంధ ఆయుర్వేదంలో గొప్ప మూలిక. దీన్ని తీసుకోవడం వల్ల వృద్దాప్య లక్షణాలను నివారించవచ్చు.

ఉసిరి..

ఉసిరి విటమిన్-సి కి గొప్ప నిధి లాంటిది. ఉసిరిలోని విటమిన్-సి కొల్లాజన్ స్థాయిని మెరుగుపరుస్తుంది. చిన్నవయసులోనే వృద్దాప్యం రావడానికి కారణమయ్యే ఫ్రీరాడికల్స్ నుండి శరీరాన్ని రక్షిస్తుంది. చర్మాన్ని ఆరోగ్యంగా ఉంచుతుంది.

తులసి..

తులసిలో ఉర్సోలిక్ యాసిడ్, రోస్మరినిక్ యాసిడ్, యూజినాల్ వంటి గొప్ప యాంటీ ఆక్సిడెంట్లు ఉంటాయి. ఇవి ఫ్రీరాడికల్స్ తో పోరాడి చర్మాన్ని రక్షిస్తాయి. కొల్లాజెన్ ఉత్పత్తిని ప్రోత్సహిస్తాయి.

నెయ్యి..

నెయ్యి తింటే కొలెస్ట్రాల్ పెరుగుతుందని, బరువు పెరుగుతారని చాలామంది అవాయిడ్ చేస్తారు. కానీ నెయ్యిలో విటమిన్-ఎ,డి, ఇ పుష్కలంగా ఉంటాయి. చర్మం ఆరోగ్యంగా ఉండాలంటే ఇవి తప్పక అవసరం. విటమిన్-ఎ చర్మాన్ని ఆరోగ్యంగా, అందంగా ఉంచే విటమిన్.  ఇది కొల్లాజెన్ ఉత్పత్తిని ప్రోత్సహిస్తుంది. తద్వారా చిన్నవయసులోనే వృద్దాప్యాన్ని నివారిస్తుంది.

సరస్వతి..

సరస్వతి ఆయుర్వేద మూలిక. దీన్నే బ్రాహ్మీ అని కూడా అంటారు. ఇందులో యాంటీ ఆక్సిడెంట్లు పుష్కలంగా ఉంటాయి. యాంటీ ఏజింగ్ లక్షణాలు కూడా ఇందులో ఉంటాయి. శరీరంలో కొత్త కణాలను, కొల్లాజెన్ ఉత్పత్తిని ప్రోత్సహిస్తాయి. ప్రసవం తరువాత మహిళలలో స్కిన్ పిగ్మెంటేషన్, స్ట్రెచ్ మార్కులను కూడా తేలికగా తొలగించడానికి ఉపయోగపుడుతుంది.

శీతాకాలంలో జట్టు పొడిబారుతోందా? ఇలా  చేయండి.!


శీతాకాలంలో జట్టు పొడిబారుతోందా? ఇలా  చేయండి.!

శీతాకాలంలో వాతావరణ ప్రభావం శరీరంతోపాటు శిరోజాలపై కూడా పడుతుంది. దాంతో జట్టు బలహీనంగా, నిర్జీవంగా, చివర్లు చిట్లిపోవడం జరుగుతుంది. అందుకే కాలానికి అనుగుణంగా మనం శిరోజాలను సంరక్షించుకోవాలి. దానికోసం ఏవేవో కొనేసి కష్టపడాల్సిన అవసరం లేదు. మన వంటింట్లోనే దొరికే వాటితో మన కురులను సంరక్షించుకోవచ్చు. ఎలాగో చూద్దాం.

- జుట్టు పొడిగా మారి, చివర్లు చిట్లుతున్నట్లు కనిపిస్తే..బాగా పండిన అరటిపండును గుజ్జుగా చేసి, దానిలో4 చెంచాలా  కొబ్బరినూనె, చెంచా చొప్పున తేనె, గ్లిజరిన్ వేసి కలపాలి. ఈ మిశ్రమాన్ని కురులకు పూతలా వేసి అరగంట తర్వాత గోరువెచ్చని నీటితో తలస్నానం చేయాలి. ఇందులోని గ్జిజరిన్ తేనె జుట్టుకు తేమను అందిస్తుంది. చివర్లు చిట్టకుండా కాపాడుతాయి.

- 5 చెంచాల శనగపిండికి రెండు చెంచాల చొప్పున ఆలివ్ నూనె, పెరుగు కలిపి మెత్తని పేస్టు చేసుకోవాలి. దీన్ని మొదళ్ల నుంచి చివర్ల వరకు పట్టించి 20 నిమిషాల తర్వాత గోరువెచ్చని నీటితో తలస్నానం చేయాలి. ఇది జుట్టుకు మంచి కండిషనర్ వలే పనిచేస్తుంది. అంతేకాదు కుదుళ్లను బలంగా ఉంచుతుంది. ఆలివ్ నూనె జుట్టుకు మంచి కండిషనర్ వలే పనిచేస్తుంది.

-గుడ్డులోని తెల్లసొనకు 2చెంచాల చొప్పున శనగపిండి, బాదంపొడి, తగినంత రోజ్ వాటర్ కలిపి మెత్తని పేస్టు వలె చేసుకోవాలి. దీన్ని కుదుళ్ల నుంచి చివర్ల వరకు పట్టించి అరగంట తర్వాత తక్కువగా గాఢత కలిగిన షాంపూతో తలస్నానం చేయాలి. ఇలా చేస్తే కేశాలు ఆరోగ్యంగా ఉంటాయి.

- జుట్టు పొడిబారకుండా ఉండాలంటే..2 చెంచాల మెంతిపిండికి 4 చెంచాల కొబ్బరిపాలను కలిపి మెత్తని మిశ్రమంగా చేసుకోవాలి. దీన్ని మాడుకు పట్టించి మర్దనా చేసుకోవాలి. గంట తర్వాత గాఢత తక్కువగా ఉన్న షాంపూతో తలస్నానం చేయాలి. అంతే మీ జుట్టు పొడిబారకుండా సిల్కీగా మెరుస్తుంది.

చలికాలంలో చర్మం పొడిబారడం, దురద, తామర, చర్మం తెల్లబడటం, చర్మం పొలుసుగా పైకి లేవడం వంటి అనేక సమస్యలు మొదలవుతాయి. అంతేకాకుండా శరీరంలో తేమ లేకపోవడం వల్ల జుట్టు రాలడం, చుండ్రు తదితర సమస్యలు కూడా వస్తాయి. ఈ సమస్యలను నివారించడానికి, గోరువెచ్చని ఉప్పు నీటితో స్నానం చేయడం  చాలా సహాయపడుతుంది.

రోజూ గోరువెచ్చని నీళ్లలో కొద్దిగా ఉప్పు కలిపి స్నానం చేస్తే చర్మం బాగా శుభ్రపడుతుంది. ఉప్పు నీటితో స్నానం చేయడం వల్ల జుట్టు,  చర్మం మెరుపు సంతరించుకుంటాయి. చలికాలంలో చాలా సార్లు పరిశుభ్రత లేకపోవడం, తడి బట్టలతో ఉండటం. చలికారణంగా  శరీరంలో దద్దుర్లు, దురదలు, తామర వంటి సమస్యలు వస్తాయి. వీటన్నింటిని పరిష్కరించడానికి ఉప్పు సహాయపడుతుంది.  ఉప్పులో యాంటీ బ్యాక్టీరియల్ గుణాలు ఉన్నాయి. ఉప్పు కలిపిన గోరువెచ్చని నీటికి  చర్మంపై ఉండే బ్యాక్టీరియా,  క్రిములను తొలగించే శక్తి ఉంటుంది. ఇది చర్మసంబంధ   వ్యాధులను నివారిస్తుంది.

సాధారణంగా వేసవి కాలంతో పోలిస్తే శీతాకాలంలో చర్మం  మెరుపు తగ్గడం ప్రారంభమవుతుంది. దీనికి మొదటి కారణం చలి వల్ల నీరు సరిపడినంత తీసుకోకపోవడం. శరీరంలో నీటి శాతం లోపిస్తే చర్మ సమస్యలు సులభంగా వస్తాయి. చర్మం కూడా నిర్జీవంగా మారుతుంది.  ముఖ్యంగా జిడ్డు చర్మం ఉన్నవారిలో సమస్య అధికంగా ఉంటుంది.

 గోరువెచ్చని నీటిలో ఉప్పు కలిపి స్నానం చేయడం వల్ల చర్మంపై ఉన్న మృతకణాలు తొలగిపోతాయి. ఇది  చర్మ రంధ్రాలలో ఉండే మురికిని తొలగించడం వల్ల చర్మం కాంతివంతంగా మారుతుంది. దీన్ని ఫాలో అయితే  అందం చెక్కుచెదరకుండా ఉంటుంది.  

ఒత్తిడి సమస్యతో ఇబ్బంది పడేవారికి కూడా ఉప్పునీరు చాలా ఉపయోగకరంగా ఉంటుంది.  ఒత్తిడిగా ఉన్నప్పుడు కండరాలు ఉద్రిక్తంగా ఉంటాయి. ఇలాంటి  పరిస్థితిలో ఉప్పు కలిపిన గోరువెచ్చని నీరు  మంచి పరిష్కారంగా మారుతుంది. మానసిక ఒత్తిడిని తగ్గిస్తుంది. గోరువెచ్చని నీటిలో ఉప్పు కలిపి స్నానం చేయడం వల్ల కండరాలకు ఉపశమనం కలుగుతుంది.   అలసట తొలగిపోతుంది. ఇది శరీరానికి విశ్రాంతినిస్తుంది.

ఈ నూనె ఎలా పనిచేస్తుందంటే..

వాస్తవానికి భీమసేని కర్పూరం యాంటీ ఫంగల్ లక్షణాలను కలిగి ఉంటుంది. ఇది ఫంగస్ పెరుగుదలను నిరోధించడంలో సహాయపడుతుంది. అలాగే స్కాల్ప్ కు చల్లదనాన్ని అందించడం ద్వారా చికాకును తగ్గించడంలో  సహాయపడతుంది.  దీన్ని  జుట్టుకు అప్లై చేస్తే  జుట్టు కుదుళ్లను తెరవడంలో సహాయపడుతుంది,  జుట్టు పెరుగుదలకు కూడా సహాయపడుతుంది. ఇక ఇందులో ఉండే  నిమ్మరసం దాని ఆమ్ల గుణాల కారణంగా జుట్టు pH స్థాయిని సమతుల్యంగా ఉంచుతుంది. ఇది  ఫంగస్ పెరుగుదలను నిరోధిస్తుంది. కాబట్టి ఇది తయారు చేయడం సులభం, వాడటం కూడా సులువు  మాత్రమే కాకుండా ప్రభావవంతంగా ఉంటుంది.

వాము గింజలు ఇలా వాడితే ఒత్తైన జుట్టు మీ సొంతం..!

వాము గింజలు ఇలా వాడితే ఒత్తైన జుట్టు మీ సొంతం..!

వాము వంటింట్లో తరచుగా వాడే పదార్థం. వాము గింజలను మిర్చి బజ్జీలు, సమోసా, ఇతర స్నాక్స్ తయారుచేసేటప్పుడు వాడుతుంటారు. కారంగానూ, ఘాటుగానూ ఉండే వాము మంచి సువాసనతో  ఆహ్లాదంగా ఉంటుంది. వామును వంటల్లోనే కాకుండా జుట్టు పెరుగుదల కోసం కూడా ఉపయోగిస్తారట. వాము గింజలను వాడటం వల్ల జుట్టు ఒత్తుగా పెరగడం ఖాయం అంటున్నారు. ఇంతకీ జుట్టు ఒత్తుగా పెరగాలి అంటే వామును ఎలా ఉపయోగించాలో తెలుసుకుంటే..

వాము నూనె..

జుట్టు పెరుగుదలకు నూనెలు ఒక థెరపీలా పనిచేస్తాయి. ఇవి జుట్టు కుదుళ్లకు రక్తప్రసరణ పెంచి జుట్టు ఆరోగ్యంగా ఉండేలానూ, జుట్టు కుదుళ్లు ఆరోగ్యంగా ఉండేలానూ చేస్తాయి. అయితే వాము గింజలను ఉపయోగించి నూనె తయారుచేసుకుని వాడటం వల్ల జుట్టు పెరుగుదలలో ఊహించని రీతిలో మార్పులు ఉంటాయి. దీని కోసం  వాము నూనె ఎలా తయారు చేసుకోవాలంటే..

వాము నూనె..

వాము నూనె తయారుచేసుకోవడం చాలా సులభం. ఏదైనా హెయిర్ ఆయిల్  తీసుకోవాలి. సహజమైన నూనెలు అయితే మంచిది. ఈ నూనెలో వాము గింజలు వేసి బాగా ఉడికించాలి. ఆ తరువాత చల్లారిన తరువాత నూనెను ఫిల్టర్ చేసి గాజు సీసాలో నిల్వచేసుకోవాలి. ఈ నూనె జుట్టుకు చాలా శక్తివంతంగా పనిచేస్తుంది.

ఉపయోగించే విధానం..

వాము నూనెను మిగతా అన్ని నూనెల లాగే జుట్టుకు అప్లై చేయాలి. దీన్ని మునివేళ్లతో కొద్ది కొద్దిగా తీసుకుంటూ జుట్టు కుదుళ్లలోకి నూనె ఇంకేలా సున్నితంగా మసాజ్ చేసుకోవాలి. గంట ఆగిన తరువాత గాఢత లేని షాంపూతో తలస్నానం చెయ్యాలి.  లేదంటే ఈ నూనెను రాత్రి సమయంలో అప్లై చేసి మరుసటి రోజు జుట్టు తలస్నానం చేయవచ్చు.

వాము నూనె ఉపయోగిస్తే కలిగే లాభాలు..

వాము నూనెను జుట్టుకు అప్లై చేయడం వల్ల జుట్టు రాలడం ఆగిపోతుంది. చుండ్రు సమస్యలు ఉన్నా, జుట్టు పొడిబారడం  వంటి సమస్యలున్నా తగ్గుతాయి.  మరీ దారుణంగా తలలో చుండ్రు పొలుసుల్లా ఉన్నవారు ఈ నూనెను వాడితే అద్బుతమైన ఫలితాలు ఉంటాయి. చుండ్రు వల్ల తలలో వచ్చే దురదను కూడా ఇది తగ్గిస్తుంది.

వాము నూనె జుట్టుకు ఉపయోగిస్తే  నెత్తి భాగానికి రక్తప్రసరణ పెరుగుతుంది.  మరీ ముఖ్యంగా జుట్టు పెరుగుదలను వేగవంతం చేస్తుంది.

వాము నూనెలో యాంటీ ఫంగల్ లక్షణాలు ఉంటాయి.  ఇవి జుట్టును శుభ్రంగా ఉంచడంలో సహాయపడతాయి. జుట్టు పొడిగా ఉన్నవారికి ఈ నూనె చాలా ఉపయోగకరంగా ఉంటుంది. దీన్ని వాడిన 15రోజుల లోపే జుట్టు పెరుగుదలలో మెరుగుదల స్పష్టంగా కనిపిస్తుంది.

వెంట్రుకలకు రైస్ వాటర్ అప్లై చేస్తే నిజంగా జుట్టు పెరుగుతుందా? అసలు నిజాలేంటంటే!

వెంట్రుకలకు రైస్ వాటర్ అప్లై చేస్తే నిజంగా జుట్టు పెరుగుతుందా? అసలు నిజాలేంటంటే..!

జుట్టు పెరుగుదలకు సంబంధించి చాలా రకాల టిప్స్ వైరల్ అవుతుంటాయి. వాటిలో ఉల్లిపాయ జ్యూస్ నుండి హెయిర్ ప్యాక్ లు, హెయిర్ డైలు, హెన్నా ట్రిక్స్ తో పాటూ జుట్టుకు బియ్యం నీరు ఉపయోగించడం వరకు చాలా ఉన్నాయి. అయితే జుట్టుకు రైస్ వాటర్ అప్లై చేయడం అనేది ఎప్పటినుంచో ఉన్నదేనని చాలా మంది అంటారు. జుట్టుకు రైస్ వాటర్ అప్లై చేస్తే జుట్టు బాగా ఒత్తుగా నల్లగా పెరుగుతుందని, జుట్టు పట్టు కుచ్చులా మారుతుందని అంటుంటారు కూడా. అయితే జుట్టుకు  రైస్ వాటర్ అప్లై చేస్తే నిజంగానే జుట్టు బాగా పెరుగుతుందా? దీని వెనుక నిజమెంత తెలుసుకుంటే..

 జుట్టు ఆరోగ్యాన్ని మెరుగుపరచడానికి రైస్ వాటర్  ఒక గొప్ప మార్గమని సోషల్ మీడియా మొత్తం కోడై కూస్తుంది. నిజానికి  జుట్టు పెరుగుదలకు ఈ సాధారణ పద్ధతి అంత ఉపయోగపడదు. జుట్టు బాగా పెరగాలంటే  వారానికి ఒకసారి జుట్టుకు నూనె రాయాలి. దీని తరువాత జుట్టు పెరుగుదలను,  దెబ్బతిన్న జుట్టును సరిచేయడానికి రైస్ వాటర్ రెసిపీని ఫాలో కావచ్చు. బియ్యం నీటిలో ఉండే యాంటీఆక్సిడెంట్లు, విటమిన్లు,  ఖనిజాలు జుట్టు ఆరోగ్యంగా ఉంచడంలో సహాయపడతాయి. అయితే వేసవిలో వెంట్రుకలకు రైస్ వాటర్ అప్లై చేసే సరైన విధానాన్ని తెలుసుకోవడం చాలా ముఖ్యం.

రైస్ వాటర్ ఎలా  చేయాలి..


ముందుగా బియ్యాన్ని పూర్తిగా శుభ్రం చేయాలి. నీరు క్లీన్ గా కనిపించేవరకు బాగా కడగాలి. ఆ తర్వాత ఒక పాత్రలో శుభ్రమైన నీటిని తీసుకుని అందులో కడిగిన బియ్యాన్ని వేసి 30 నిమిషాలు అలాగే ఉంచాలి. దీని తరువాత నీటిని ఫిల్టర్ చేసి ఒక పాత్రలో తీసుకోవాలి. ఇప్పుడు ఈ నీటిని గాజు పాత్రలో నింపి 12 నుండి 24 గంటలపాటు మూసి క్లోజ్ చేసి ఉంచాలి.  దీన్ని 1 వారం రిఫ్రిజిరేటర్‌లో నిల్వ చేయవచ్చు.

ఎలా అప్లై చేయాలంటే..

హెయిర్ వాష్ తర్వాత బియ్యం నీటిని కండీషనర్‌గా ఉపయోగించవచ్చు. ఇది కాకుండా దీన్ని హెయిర్ మాస్క్‌గా కూడా అప్లై చేయవచ్చు. అయితే ఇక్కడ చెయ్యవలసిన ముఖ్యమైన పని ఏంటంటే  బియ్యం నీటిలో కొన్ని చుక్కల కలబంద,  ఎసెన్షియల్ ఆయిల్ మిక్స్ చేసి హెయిర్ మాస్క్‌గా అప్లై చేసుకోవాలి. అరగంట తర్వాత జుట్టు కడుక్కోవాలి.

అమ్మాయిల ముఖం ఎప్పుడూ కాంతివంతంగా మెరవాలంటే ఈ చిట్కాలు బెస్ట్!

అమ్మాయిల ముఖం ఎప్పుడూ కాంతివంతంగా మెరవాలంటే ఈ చిట్కాలు బెస్ట్!

 

అందం కోసం ఆరాటపడని అమ్మాయిలు ఉండరు. ఇందుకోసం ఎన్నెన్నో బ్యూటీ ప్రోడక్ట్స్ కూడా వాడతారు. కానీ ఇవన్నీ తాత్కాలిక అందాన్ని మాత్రమే ఇస్తాయి. ఈ విషయం గ్రహించిన తరువాత అమ్మాయిలు సహజంగా అందంగా కనిపించడం గురించి చాలా ప్రయోగాలు చేస్తారు. మరీ ముఖ్యంగా వేసవికాలంలో అమ్మాయిలు ఎండల ధాటికి తొందరగా పువ్వుల్లా ఉన్నవాళ్లు కాస్తా వాడిపోయినట్టు అయిపోతారు. అలా కాకుండా ఉండాలంటే ఈ కింది చిట్కాలు పాటించాల్సిందే..

నీరు తాగాలి..

ప్రతిరోజూ కనీసం 2గ్లాసుల గోరువెచ్చని నీరు తాగాలి. నీరు శరీరాన్ని హైడ్రేట్ గా ఉంచుతుంది. కేవలం వేడి నీరు 2 గ్లాసులు మాత్రమే కాదు.. సాధారణ నీరు కనీసం 4లీటర్ల వరకు తాగాలి. ఎందుకంటే వేసవిలో  ఏ చిన్న పని చేసినా, కొద్ది దూరం నడిచినా శరీరంలో తేమ చెమట రూపంలో బయటకు వెళ్లిపోతుంది. గోరువెచ్చని నీరు తాగితే రక్తప్రసరణను మెరుగవుతుంది. శరీరాన్ని డిటాక్స్ చేయడం ద్వారా ముఖంలో మెరుపు తెస్తుంది.


కీరదోసకాయ..

అటు కూరగాయ గానూ, ఇటు స్నాక్ గానూ, సాధారణంగా తినడానికి ఇష్టపడేది కీరదోసకాయ.  దోసకాయలలో నీటిశాతం ఎక్కువ. ఇది  శరీరాన్ని హైడ్రేట్ గా ఉంచుతుంది. లోపలి నుండి శరీరాన్ని చల్లబరిచి చర్మానికి మెరుపు ఇస్తుంది.దోసకాయలో ఉండే సమ్మేళనాలు చర్మాన్ని మృదువుగా ఉంచుతాయి.

స్క్రబ్ వాడాలి..

వేసవి కాలంలో అమ్మాయిలు బయటకు వెళ్లాలంటే భయపడతారు. దీని వెనుక ఉన్న అతిపెద్ద కారణం ట్యానింగ్. చర్మంలో సూర్యుడి ఎండకు బహిర్గతం అయ్యే భాగం అంతా రంగు మారి నల్లగా అవుతుంది. పాదాలు, చేతులు, ముఖం, మెడ ఈ సమస్యకు లోనవుతాయి. అందుకే వేసవిలో స్కిన్ ట్యాన్ తొందరగా వస్తుంది. దీన్ని తొలగించడానికి బియ్యంపిండి, కాఫీ, పంచదార, పెసరపప్పు నూక  వంటి పదార్థాలతో స్క్రబ్ చేసుకోవాలి. ఇలా చేస్తే ట్యాన్ తొలగిపోయి చర్మానికి మెరుపు వస్తుంది.

ఇంటి చిట్కాలు..

ముఖం అందంగా కనిపించడానికి ఇంటి చిట్కాలు పాటించడం అమ్మాయిలకు ఎప్పటినుండో ఉన్న  అలవాటు. చాలామంది ఇంటినే బ్యూటీ సెలూన్ గా మార్చేస్తుంటారు. ఇంట్లోనే ఆరోగ్యవంతమైన   మార్గంలో ముఖాన్ని మెరిపించాలంటే పెసరపప్పు, ముల్తానీ మట్టి, శనగపిండి, పసుపు, పచ్చిపాలు, క్యారెట్, దోసకాయ, టమోటా  వంటివి వాడాలి. ఇవి చర్మానికి మంచివి.


అలోవెరా..

అలొవెరాను కలబంద అని కూడా అంటాం. తాజా కలబంద అయినా మార్కెట్లో దొరితే జెల్ అయినా బ్యూటీ టిప్స్ లో బాగా ఉపయోగిస్తారు. తాజా కలబంద జెల్ ను ముఖానికి రాసి 10-15 నిమిషాలు ఉంచి కడిగేయాలి. ఇది చర్మానికి పోషణ ఇస్తుంది. చర్మాన్ని తాజాగా ఉంచుతుంది.


ఆహార జాగ్రత్తలు..

శరీరం హైడ్రేట్ గా ఉండటానికి నీరు అధికంగా ఉన్న పండ్లు, సిట్రస్ పండ్లు,  యాంటీ ఏజింగ్ కు దోహదం చేసే పండ్లు, కూరగాయలు, ఆకుకూరరలు  తీసుకోవాలి. నూనె ఆహారాలు, బేకింగ్ ఆహారాలు, చక్కెర అధికంగా ఉన్న ఆహారాలు, శీతలపానీయాలు, స్వీట్లు  నివారించాలి.


జాగ్రత్తలు..

స్కిన్ కేర్ రొటీన్ ఫాలో అయితే ముఖం అందంగా ఉంటుంది. బయట నుండి ఇంటికి రాగానే ముఖం కడుక్కోవడం, బయటకు వెళ్లేటప్పుడు సన్ స్క్రీన్ ఉపయోగించడం,  ముఖ చర్మాన్ని హైడ్రేట్ గా ఉంచడానికి ముఖానికి రోజ్ వాటర్, మాయిశ్చరైజర్ వంటివి ఉపయోగించడం ఫాలో అవ్వాలి.  ఇవన్నీ చేస్తే చర్మం  సహజ కాంతితో  మెరిసిపోతుంది.

స్కిన్ హైడ్రేషన్..

ఆరోగ్యకరమైన,  ప్రకాశవంతమైన  చర్మం రంగు కావాలంటే చర్మానికి హైడ్రేషన్ కీలకం.  తేలికైన, హైడ్రేటింగ్ ఉత్పత్తులైన ఎసెన్స్‌లు, సీరమ్‌ల   వినియోగం ద్వారా ఇది సాధ్యమవుతుంది.  కొరియన్లు ఉపయోగించే బ్యూటీ ఉత్పత్తులలో సోయాబీన్ పదార్దాలు, బియ్యం నీరు,  గెలాక్టోమైసెస్ వంటి పులియబెట్టిన పదార్ధాలు ఉంటాయి.  ఇవి  మొత్తం చర్మ ఆరోగ్యాన్ని మెరుగుపరుస్తాయి.  చర్మం మీద హెవీగా లేకుండా,  జిడ్డు కలిగించకుండా లోతుగా చొచ్చుకుపోతాయి. బయో-రీమోడలింగ్,  హైడ్రోస్ట్రెచ్ థెరపీ వంటి అధునాతన పద్ధతులు తేమ నిలుపుదలని మరింత మెరుగుపరుస్తాయి. ముఖం మీద గీతలను, ముడుతలను తగ్గించడంలో సహాయపడతాయి.

యాంటీఆక్సిడెంట్లు..

వాతావరణ కాలుష్యం కారణంగానూ, జీవనశైలి కారణంగానూ ఎదురయ్యే   అకాల వృద్ధాప్యం నుండి చర్మాన్ని రక్షించడంలో యాంటీఆక్సిడెంట్లు కీలక పాత్ర పోషిస్తాయి. కొరియన్ చర్మ సంరక్షణ ఉత్పత్తులు తరచుగా విటమిన్ సి, గ్రీన్ టీ ఎక్స్‌ట్రాక్ట్,  నియాసినామైడ్ వంటి శక్తివంతమైన యాంటీఆక్సిడెంట్‌లతో నిండి ఉంటాయి. ఈ పదార్థాలు ఫ్రీ రాడికల్స్‌ను తటస్తం చేయడానికి, మంటను తగ్గించడానికి,  చర్మం రంగును ప్రకాశవంతం చేయడానికి సహాయపడతాయి.

షీట్ మాస్క్‌లు..

లేయరింగ్ పద్ధతులు

 కొరియన్ బ్యూటీ పద్దతులలో లేయరింగ్ పద్దతి ముఖ్యమైనది. ముందుగా టోనర్‌లు,  ఎసెన్స్‌లు, సీరమ్‌లు,  క్రీమ్‌ల వంటి మందమైన తేలికపాటి ఉత్పత్తులను లేయరింగ్ చేయడం ద్వారా   చర్మాన్ని యంగ్ గా ఉంచుకోవచ్చు.  దీని వల్ల ముఖ చర్మం యవ్వనంగా, డీహైడ్రేట్ కాకుండా తేమతో కూడి ఉంటుంది.

ట్యానింగ్ అమ్మాయిలకు చాలా సాధారణంగా ఎదురయ్యే సమస్య. ఇక వేసవికాలంలో అయితే దీని  ప్రభావం మరీ ఎక్కువగా ఉంటుంది. వేసవి ఎండకు జస్ట్ అలా బయటకు వెళ్లి రాగానే చర్మం రంగు మారిపోయి బ్లాక్ అండ్ వైట్ ఫొటోలు పక్కపక్కనే పెట్టినట్టు కనిపిస్తూ ఉంటుంది. ఈ ట్యానింగ్ తొలగిపోయి ముఖం సాధారణ రంగులోకి రావాలన్నా.. ముఖ చర్మం చల్లగా ఉండాలన్నా ఈ కింద చెప్పుకునే మ్యాజికల్ ఫేస్ మాస్క్ చాలా బాగా సహాయపడుతుంది. అదేంటో ఓ లుక్కేస్తే..

గుడ్డు శరీరానికి మంచి పోషణ ఇవ్వడమే కాదు.. సౌందర్య సాధనంగా వాడితే చర్మానికి, జుట్టుకు కూడా మంచి ఫలితాలు ఇస్తుంది.  వేసవిలో ఎదురయ్యే ట్యానింగ్, పిగ్మెంటేషన్ కు గుడ్డు బెస్ట్ ఆప్షన్. బంగాళాదుంప ఎగ్ మాస్క్ వేయడం వల్ల ముఖం అందంగా కాంతివంతంగా మారుతుంది.

తెల్లజుట్టును నల్లగా మార్చే సూపర్ ఆకులు ఇవీ..!


తెల్లజుట్టు ఎక్కడైనా కనబడగానే చాలామంది గాభరా పడిపోతారు. ఒకే ఒక్కటి ఉంటే దాన్ని లాగేయడం చేస్తారు. ఒకటి కంటే ఎక్కువ తెల్ల వెంట్రుకలు ఉంటే  వాటిని కవర్ చేయడానికి నానా తంటాలు పడతారు. అయితే తెల్లజుట్టును కవర్ చేయడానికి వాడే చాలా వాణిజ్య ఉత్పత్తులలో రసాయనాలుంటాయి. ఇవి జుట్టుకు రంగును తాత్కాలికంగా ఇస్తాయి కానీ మెదడులోపలి నరాలను చాలా దెబ్బతీస్తాయి. అయితే ఎలాంటి సైడ్ ఎఫెక్ట్స్ లేకుండా జుట్టును నల్లగా మార్చే ఆకులు ఉన్నాయి. అవే గోరింట, నీలిమందు..


గోరింట..

గోరింట సాధారణంగా అందరికీ తెలిసిందే. ఇది చేతులకు మాత్రమే కాకుండా తెల్లజుట్టు కవర్ చేయడానికి ఉపయోగిస్తారు. ఇది చాలా సహజమైన కలర్ గా పేర్కొనబడుతుంది.

నీలిమందు..

సాధారణంగా నీలిమందును బట్టలకు వాడటమే తెలిసి ఉంటుంది. కానీ నీలిమందును గోరింటలో కలిపి జుట్టుకు పెట్టుకుంటే తెల్లజుట్టు నల్లగా మారుతుంది.


గోరింట, నీలిమందు హెయిర్ డై..


జుట్టు పరిమాణాన్ని బట్టి  గోరింట పొడిని తీసుకోవాలి. ఈ గోరింట పొడిలో టీ పొడి ఉడికించిన నీటిని వేసి పేస్ట్ లాగా కలపాలి. ముదురు రంగు రావడం కోసం ఇందులో కాస్త నిమ్మరసం కూడా కలపవచ్చు. గోరింట మిశ్రమాన్ని రాత్రంతా ఒక ఇనుప బాండిలోనే ఉంచాలి. మరుసటి రోజు గోరింట మిశ్రమంలో గోరింట పొడి కంటే ఎక్కువ  నీలి మందు పొడి వేయాలి. దీన్ని పేస్ట్ లా చేసుకోవడానికి ఇందులో పెరుగు వేయాలి. ఈ మిశ్రమాన్ని బాగా మిక్స్ చేసి ఓ  గంటసేపు  అలాగే వదిలేయాలి.  ఆ తరువాత దీన్ని జుట్టును పాయలు పాయలుగా తీసుకుంటూ జుట్టు కుదుళ్ల నుండి చివర్ల వరకు అప్లై చేయాలి. కనీసం రెండు నుండి మూడు గంటల పాటూ దీన్ని ఉంచుకోవాలి.


ఈ హెయిర్ డై ని 15 నుండి 20 రోజులకు ఒకసారి జుట్టుకు అప్లై చేస్తుంటే మూడు లేదా నాలుగు సార్లకే తెల్లజుట్టు పూర్తీగా నలుపురంగులోకి మారుతుంది.  ఇది కేవలం జుట్టును నల్లగా మార్చడమే కాదు.. గోరింటలోని గుణాలు, నిమ్మరసం, టీ  డికాషన్ ఇవన్నీ జుట్టు పెరుగుదలను ప్రోత్సహిస్తాయి.
