<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The best night cream at the high end is estee lauder range.I have tried advance night repair and that's the best one,which makes your skin smooth with the glow.It takes 20-25 days to see the effect though.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The best pimple relief cream is shah clove by shehnaz husain even better than clarins pimple range,and others.Apply on the pimple for 2-3 days and it'll be gone.No marks whatsoever.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The best sunscreen is no doubt Neutrogena sensitive skin sunblock,followed by clarins.Try it! You'll see the difference.The best sunblock for body is Cetaphil sunblock(recommended by even doctors)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The best lip balm so far is loccitone shea butter.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The best cold cream is pond's cold cream.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The best foot care range is from vlcc and body shop.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Have tried many shampoos and conditioner,still not very satisfied with all of them.Maybe kerastase should do the magic..Any comments about your best shampoos?I have damaged hair.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The adorable curls are liked and loved by everybody.How many times I have wished I had those spiral curls and waves. The girls who have them are so lucky.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<b style="background-color: #cfe2f3;"><span style="font-size: large;">How to get curly hair permanently??</span></b><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">1)If you have straight hair and you want them to be curly a permanent solution is get a perm done at your nearest parlour.It stays for 1-1.5 years depending on your growth of hair.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I have done perm at the parlours thrice,and it has long damaging effects if you dont take proper care during the duration you have those curls.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<b style="background-color: #cfe2f3;"><span style="font-size: large;">How to get temporary curls??</span></b><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b style="background-color: #cfe2f3;">1)Hot Rollers : </b>The best method is use hot rollers,as the girls we get are more defined and spiral.If you are using a hot rollers, do not wet your hair as the hot steam may damage your hair. Do read the safety instructions on hot rollers.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b style="background-color: #cfe2f3;">2)Curling Irons :</b> I have personally used this and it takes a lot of effort trying to curl a group of strands until all the hair you want is curled.The curls comes out as wavy hair,not as defined as the hot rollers.Please read instructions before using this.The curls dont stay that long,may be half a day or suitable for an occasion.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b style="background-color: #cfe2f3;">3)Straighteners:</b>Curls can be created by twisted the straightener.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Spray hair with a heat protectant spray so that your hair does not burn. Divide your hair into five sections. Clamp the straightener on one section near the scalp. Now twirl the straightener inwards making the hair take a U turn. Run the straightener slowly down the hair shaft till the end. Repeat with other sections. Spray some hair spray on your curls to make them last longer.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b style="background-color: #cfe2f3;">4)Foam Roller : </b>The best way to get defined curls is put on the foam roller on the group of little wet hair strands,twist.Leave it overnight,for the curls to stay for the day.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Place the foam curler beneath one thick lock of hair. Roll the lock around the curler tightly and start rolling the curler up from inside. Once you reach the scalp hold the hair with curler securely with a bobbing pin. Repeat these steps with the other locks. Use smaller rollers on the side and front of the face and larger rollers at the back. Blow dry your hair and keey the curlers on as long as possible.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b style="background-color: #cfe2f3;">5)French Braid :</b>Make a little tight french braid starting from the front of face to the end of your last strand in your wet hair.Leave overnight.In the morning you have those best beautiful curls.</span><br />

The oxygenating process of the products in this range makes your skin breathe, thereby leaving you feeling pure and almost floating on air.<br /><br /><br /><strong>Starrize:</strong><br />Inspired by the sun, the biggest star in our solar system. Like the sun, the products provide nourishment. But at the same time, they protect, especially against harmful radiation and its effects. Setting you up with the sparkle and energy to face the day.<br /><br /><br /><strong>Foressence:</strong><br />The enchanted forest and all it holds is captured in this range.

Look for pH balanced shampoos and other haircare products.<br />· Your skin’s surface oil layer (the sebum) can be removed. Without this layer to keep your skin’s natural moisture from evaporating off the surface, you may develop excessively dry skin.This also lead to an increased sensitivity to other products, as the chemicals can be more readily absorbed by your unprotected skin.<br />· Some shampoos can actually cause dandruff by interacting with the bacteria and yeasts already on your scalp.<br />· If you already have dry skin, certain detergents (like sodium lauryl sulfate) can provoke an allergy-like reaction called irritant contact dermatitis where your skin becomes red and chafed.<br />· The fragrances in the product can cause contact urticaria, an immediate redness, itching and swelling of the skin as well as an allergic reaction.<br />· Certain botanicals like chamomile, lavender and rose oil as well as preservatives like Kathon CG and quaternium-15 can all cause allergic reactions in individuals with sensitive and even normal skin</div><br /><div></div><div>So,i thought why not trying to make an all repair homemade hair mask.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div><strong>hair mask:</strong></div><br /><div>1) 1 ripe avocado(can get in retail stores like food bazar )</div><div>2)curd</div><br /><div></div><div>message your hair with oil and leave overnight.In the morning,mix curd and avocado in a grinder and apply after you have shampooed your hair with garnier fructis dry/damaged shampoo and conditioned with body shop honey conditioner.apply for 15 minutes,and wrap a hot towel on hair.wash off,with water.finally rinse with honey mixed with water.do this for 1 month.you'll have your lustrous hair back.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div>Ankionthemovehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02975209562434289902noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5380285254756183631.post-83773511811418137762009-08-31T02:13:00.000-07:002009-08-31T02:26:03.874-07:00Anti Ageing Masks<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKsCHSuzbNyDa_33m1RhvVVpi4S1uhl1dNPSdx__Kew-xtjkMgZru_ejZ1985ZYeFmyxkyQx2rl9tzynmvWPfPZ-E6b3YjZRN7SpcR-ZGufYEKaWEXmLaiWqqtPB4DReJWZ4033yCenb0/s1600-h/AntiAgingTreatment-main_Full.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5376056625482439346" style="DISPLAY: block;

Although most people have recovered on their own, some people with severe illness have gone on to develop pneumonia or respiratory failure, and a small number have died as a result of the infection.<br /><br /><strong>Listed below are some of the remedies for treating swine flu:</strong><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><br /><br /><object height="300" width="400"><param name="movie" value="http://d.yimg.com/static.video.yahoo.com/yep/YV_YEP.swf?ver=2.2.46"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="AllowScriptAccess" value="always"><param name="bgcolor" value="#000000"><param name="flashVars" value="id=13543112&vid=5106396&lang=en-au&intl=au&thumbUrl=http%3A//l.yimg.com/a/p/i/bcst/videosearch/8966/85811603.jpeg&embed=1&defaultBandwidth=300"><br /><br /><embed src="http://d.yimg.com/static.video.yahoo.com/yep/YV_YEP.swf?ver=2.2.46" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="300" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" bgcolor="#000000" flashvars="id=13543112&vid=5106396&lang=en-au&intl=au&thumbUrl=http%3A//l.yimg.com/a/p/i/bcst/videosearch/8966/85811603.jpeg&embed=1&defaultBandwidth=300"></embed></object><br /><a href="http://au.video.yahoo.com/watch/5106396/13543112"></a><a href="http://au.video.yahoo.com/"></a></div><br /><br /><br />1)Wash Your Hands:<br /><br />It is believed that swine flu virus can get into the inside of your body through the mouth and nose. Regular washing of your hands, especially before a meal, with soap and luke warm water can prevent this. Alternately, you can also wear hand gloves before touching anything directly so as not to get infected.<br /><br /><br />2)Cover Your Nose and Mouth:<br /><br />If someone is sneezing or coughing near you, you may want to cover your nose and mouth with the inside of your palms or with your hanky. Alternately, you can wear face mask before going outside. These can prevent the virus to get entry into your system.<br />Drink Lemon Balm Tea: Experts believe that the anti-viral property of lemon balm can treat swine flu. You can drink lemon balm tea twice every day.<br /><br />3)Chew Fresh Garlic Cloves:<br /><br />Garlic is considered an effective antiviral. Fresh garlic cloves (2-3) can be chewed once everyday.<br /><br />4)Steam Inhalation:<br /><br />It is also suggested that steam inhalation with eucalyptus or chamomile thrice a day can relieve from congestion from the lungs. This can help in alleviating swine flu symptoms. <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5371926050108262466" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 303px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5kL7RqMVSC41T2y7qbl3bDO5rrmQW4OF7ekLiR6acY7SOCTjaybujt_hOOJ4bWD3fy8LpJhiMkkC_LnXINjEOEh-CU-9RyAb0GfMVk2UhYsDQwgXykjET6QRYe1AThRzogqL__D6wQ2s/s400/swine-flu-joke.jpg" border="0" /></div>Ankionthemovehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02975209562434289902noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5380285254756183631.post-23964173423235341472009-08-03T21:02:00.000-07:002009-08-04T02:17:43.303-07:00Mango Facial At Home<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg28LrelCbJHk7LQlR_OJWSfsa7sG4SqbCH2LtZIyjKzLS49PrrYEw-NZsmdSEIpTuDBqA00Is1udemk8smV0C6VNu60Y118pshNXPyZZbmHDXDUG3ri8jA34U2hppyl169Xc-UFlXmTMM/s1600-h/mango3.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5366034917835660898" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 317px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg28LrelCbJHk7LQlR_OJWSfsa7sG4SqbCH2LtZIyjKzLS49PrrYEw-NZsmdSEIpTuDBqA00Is1udemk8smV0C6VNu60Y118pshNXPyZZbmHDXDUG3ri8jA34U2hppyl169Xc-UFlXmTMM/s400/mango3.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Mango is packed full of beneficial antioxidants to keep your skin looking smooth and young, and helping to prevent its destruction .The mango provides natural fruit enzymes and makes the mask smell great. </div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>So,here's the recipe for you</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div><strong>Mango Face Pack</strong></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>Ingredients:</div><br /><br /><div>1/4 medium mango,peeled and deseeded</div><br /><br /><div>2 tbsps finely powdered oats</div><br /><br /><div>2 tbsps finely powdered almonds</div><br /><br /><div>2 tbsps heavy milk cream(for dry skin),milk(for normal skin),yogurt(for acne and sensitive skin)</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>Method:</div><br /><br /><div><br />Combine all ingredients together in a small food processor and process for about 1 minute until smooth and creamy.

They are either black or brown in color. If the mole is small and if it does not affect your appearance then it may be left untouched. However if you find many moles on your face, then here is the information you need on how to get rid of them.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div><strong>How Moles Are Formed?</strong></div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Moles get formed when skin cells grow in a cluster rather than spreading out. This clustering of cells is known as melanocytes. Moles develop from the childhood and cease in the mid twenties. If you get a spot after the age of 30, then it could be something else that may require proper examination.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div><strong>Various Options For Treating Moles</strong></div><br /><div></div><br /><div><strong>Surgical:</strong></div><br /><div></div><br /><div>In the surgical operation the mole is either shaved off from the top or the mole is completely removed from the roots. Surgical treatment is expensive, especially if you want to get rid of moles at multiple places. The negative aspect of surgical treatment is the scarring of skin from where the mole is removed.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div><strong>Laser:</strong> </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Another method that is popular for getting rid of moles is the laser treatment. In this treatment the top layer of skin is removed using a laser beam. You will have to take several sittings before the mole gets completely removed.

<div><span style="font-size: large;">Hi All,</span></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<div></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<div><span style="font-size: large;">I bought cherries to eat.Then I thought since cherries contain high amount of antioxidants for body,why cant it be used as a face mask.so,here's what I tried,</span></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<div></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<div><span style="font-size: large;">mix in a blender 20 fresh red cherries with 6 tablespoon skimmed yogurt.</span></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<div></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<div><span style="font-size: large;">I applied this face mask for 15 minutes and within no time,my face glowed.Now I apply it everyday,and it is extremely helpful to my tanned sensitive skin.Not only does it makes it soft,it just adds to a perfect glow.</span></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<div></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<div><span style="font-size: large;">Another thing I tried this weekend was coffeeberry products.Although I was searching was revaleskin coffeeberry products,I bumped into a new brand "The Natures Co.".</span></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<div></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<div><span style="font-size: large;">I bought this amazing coffee face scrub.Though I was a bit sceptical of applying this on my senstive skin,this is the most amazing scrub I have ever used.It leaves you with a smell of coffee.</span></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<div><span style="font-size: large;">And leaves your skin super soft.</span></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<div></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<div><span style="font-size: large;">So one day,I applied aloe juice for one hour,scrubbed my face with the nature's co. scrub and applied the face mask of cherry and yogurt.I just washed my face with plain water and slept.The next morning I had the most amazing skin.I am addicted to using it everyday.</span></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<div></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<div><span style="font-size: large;">Another great mask I have tried was fab india coral glow face mask.Combined with yogurt,this makes your skin fair in 1-2 months if applied daily.Though you wont be able to see the instant results.</span></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<div></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<div><span style="font-size: large;">The best way to get rid of acne is using shernaz hussain 's sha clove.This one actually works.If applied with shaderm on pimples and acne,it helps remove scars as well.</span></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<div></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<div><span style="font-size: large;">This is All I have tried,and tested and some products do amazing work,coming up with updates soon.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">PS: Interestingly not every brand of curd works on my skin ,for Delhi it was Britannia low fat curd ,and for Bangalore its Heritage.This is rather funny,but then this is how it is for me ;)Not using for a while now,though I still cherish those oh that smooth face in Delhi and the Glow.</span></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />

Your coloured hair doesn’t look all that glam any more. How do you retain its colour and shine? </div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><div>Wash your hair in tepid water; follow up with suitable conditioning products. Brush your hair for that shine: brushing de-tangles hair and makes it look great. It massages your scalp and spreads the natural oils over the hair shafts, accelerating the growth of new hair. The best way to brush is to start with the hair ends. Detangle them and then brush through the hair. Always be gentle to avoid extra stress on hair.</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><div>You have to use the right products. I’d recommend the Chroma Riche range from Kerastase. You can follow it up with a leave-in serum.</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>Qn2.You’re a shampoo addict, and wash your hair every single day. How do you minimise damage, if any?</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>Shampooing cleans hair, restores vitality and helps to make it shine. Frequent shampooing is good for hair as long as you use a mild shampoo and then condition.Conditioning is mandatory after every shampoo, especially if you have medium to long hair. On an average, hair should be shampooed and conditioned thrice a week. If shampooing is an addiction, make sure you condition.</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>Qn3. You alternate between your freezing air-conditioned office and the hot outdoors. And now your scalp is feeling dry and itchy-all the signs of an impending dandruff attack. What now?</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>Use an effective anti-dandruff shampoo, and stick to it. Switching between a cosmetic formulation and an anti-dandruff product reduces the effectiveness of anti-fungal actives and could leave you with flakes and bad odour.If it’s just dryness (and that itchy feeling could be a result of this, not necessarily dandruff), then use a hydrating shampoo and treat your scalp to regular hydrating treatments. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>If your problem is dandruff, I’d recommend Wella’s SP Remove Shampeeling treatment (intensive) and the leave-in Remove lotion.</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>Qn4.You use styling mousse, hair spray, hair wax-all of it. And then top it off with a flat iron or curling rod. You’re scared your hair might start to rebel. Or worse, just give up and die. What do you do?</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>For a smooth, healthy look, post the heavy-duty styling and use of curling irons, apply olive oil or almond oil to your hair for at least 30 minutes and leave it. Wash your hair, and style as usual.Never ever use a flat iron or curling tongs on wet or damp hair. Apply a protective serum before you style your hair. As for styling products, make sure you know what each product is for and how it’s used.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>If you regularly blow-dry, flat-iron or curl your hair, then a product that gives your hair protection from heat, like the Kerastase Ciment Thermique, is a must.</div><br /><div><br /></div><br /><div>Qn5.Your hair looks greasy the day after you washed it and you’re scared you’ve got an oil tank below the scalp. What do you do?</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>Oily hair is shiny enough, so avoid using hair gloss gel or shiny hair-care products. Don’t brush oily hair frequently-it can actually cause the scalp to produce more oil. Also do not use conditioner at all, or use conditioner only on the ends of the hair.Definitely seek professional help. Ask for the right in-salon treatment or home care products.</div><br /><br /><div></div>Ankionthemovehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02975209562434289902noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5380285254756183631.post-5849263544457142952009-06-29T22:10:00.000-07:002009-06-29T22:32:08.551-07:00great uses of petroleum jelly<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfvTzK3ZyVxaLB0H7O6YrIwS8bonkDhVE8-FhkiHWrZncn37ZTAi3xuQRtAfjBOZmGtLZ-6e1LVVg1Ky1ZzWNoIZUoBRE0_l-Gn5noI0nQrWOxWi44xlNIuHHoO9o5Zv90xkVlgw_jivc/s1600-h/vaseline.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5352985508289068546" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 308px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfvTzK3ZyVxaLB0H7O6YrIwS8bonkDhVE8-FhkiHWrZncn37ZTAi3xuQRtAfjBOZmGtLZ-6e1LVVg1Ky1ZzWNoIZUoBRE0_l-Gn5noI0nQrWOxWi44xlNIuHHoO9o5Zv90xkVlgw_jivc/s400/vaseline.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>You’ll be surprised at how many different way you can use something so simple – and so inexpensive.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div><br />1)keep your hands clean. Rub some petroleum jelly onto your hands before doing any type of messy work. It’ll keep things like paint from absorbing into your skin, making it easy to just wipe them off later. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>2)Protect skin from hair color. Apply around your hair line to ensure no hair color absorbs into your skin. Just wipe off later and you’ll be ready to go! </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>3)Moisturize chapped lips. Apply and go and have most beautidul lips.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>4)In fact, moisturize your whole body. You can use it on your hands, elbows, knees, wherever!<br /></div><br /><div>5)Protect your nails when painting them. Apply around the edge of your nail. It’ll make sure no polish gets on your skin while softening your cuticles.<br /></div><br /><div>6)Get soft feet! Apply to rough feet 3 minutes after bath or shower to moisturize them. Applying it right out of the shower helps absorption. You can also put it on your feet before bed and wear socks and you’ll wake up with soft, smooth, lovely feet.<br /></div><br /><div>7)Use as a make-up remover. Petroleum jelly safely removes your make up while softening your skin as well.<br /></div><br /><div>8)Create a smoky eye shadow look. Apply black eyeliner, and then use a small amount of petroleum jelly over the top. Slightly smear it for a messy, smoky look. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>9)Skip your mascara.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>10)Make your eyelashes grow. Many people swear by this trick. Apply every night before bed and over time you will have longer, stronger, thicker lashes.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>11)Soften hands. Apply a generous amount to your hands, then wear gloves to bed. You will wake up with the softest hands ever. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>12)Shine your bald beau’s head. Rub into his scalp and he’ll be so shiny, you’ll be able to predict the future with his head. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>13)Gloss your lips. Vaseline works great as a sheer, shiny gloss. ( You can also add Kool-Aid mix to the Vaseline to make your favorite lip gloss color. Yummy!) </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>14)Look dewy. Apply to your cheeks for a radiant dewy glow.<br /></div><br /><div>15)Tame your brows. Apply a tiny bit of petroleum jelly to your brows for a fabulous finished look.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>16)Remove false eyelash glue. Rub a little on your eyelashes to remove frustrating leftover glue from fake eyelashes.<br /></div><br /><div>17)Smooth your lips. Apply to your lips after exfoliating wth a toothbrush to ensure the smoothest lips you’ve ever had.<br /></div><br /><div>18)Hide split ends. Dab a bit onto the ends of your hair to hide your dry, split ends.<br /></div><br /><div>19)Prevent razor burn. Apply a little to your legs after shaving. It will both soothe them and smooth them!</div><br /><div><br />20)Homebrew an exfoliating scrub. Add sea salt, and it become the perfect bath time exfoliant.<br /></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div>Ankionthemovehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02975209562434289902noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5380285254756183631.post-91508904798358016742009-06-29T21:53:00.000-07:002009-06-29T22:07:59.503-07:00Grow Your Nails Fast And Strong<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhke_e35u0Q1I3jtvZqO3X5BDXh2ON4Nhu3iruJxlKjgCwkeg6DBmr3SUK3TQx8zZVU4ZdpYwcSnttSojlad6JEJJDvt4MmyAFAXsps4ILx7-qRgbVSqGYmXhw-SCnBP0M4FZ8BLHsNB30/s1600-h/nails.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5352982917538128290" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhke_e35u0Q1I3jtvZqO3X5BDXh2ON4Nhu3iruJxlKjgCwkeg6DBmr3SUK3TQx8zZVU4ZdpYwcSnttSojlad6JEJJDvt4MmyAFAXsps4ILx7-qRgbVSqGYmXhw-SCnBP0M4FZ8BLHsNB30/s400/nails.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Fingernails grow about 1/8 of an inch per month. Add that slow growth rate to splitting, breaking, poor diet and poor nail care in general and no wonder it seems like it takes forever to grow your nails long. Some people have naturally hard nails, giving them an advantage to growing their fingernails long. Most people have thin, frail nails that break easily which makes it impossible to grow nails faster and longer. But this can be corrected with diet, nail care and certain nail products made to grow nails strong.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div><a class="h2heading h2" style="COLOR: #000" name="To_make_your_nails_grow_faster:">To make your nails grow faster: </a><br />1. REJUVACOTE- Nail Growth System- you can purchase on-line. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>2. Get regular manicures.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>3. If you nail splits- clip it off. Clip your fingernails- just like you clip your toenails.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>4. Use plastic gloves to do dishes- try to keep you hands out of water for long periods of time.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>5. File your nails in only one direction. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>6. Paint a new coat of rejuvacote or sally hansen 6 days a week. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>7.Take Biotin, a vitamin that makes your hair and nails grow faster,after consulting your physician.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>8.At night cut a piece of garlic "a tooth "cut in in half and rub it on your finger nails !</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>9.Moisturize your nails frequently. Nails need moisture just like your skin does. Rub lotion into your nails when moisturizing your hands. Be sure to apply a moisturizer each time you wash your hands .Cuticle oil nail trek renew will keep the skin beside the sides of your nails soft and smooth. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div><br />You can also give a regular massage to your hands . This way your hands will be beautiful and nails will grow faster and they'll not break also . </div><br /><div></div><br /><div><br />Lots of calcium in your diet, milk, cheese etc. Don't abuse your nails. To prevent nail damage, don't use your fingernails as tools to pick, poke or pry things. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Don't bite your nails or pick at your cuticles. These habits can damage the nail bed. Even a minor cut alongside your nail can allow bacteria or fungi to enter and cause an infection (paronychia). </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Because your nails grow slowly, an injured nail retains signs of an injury for several months. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Protect your nails. Wear cotton-lined rubber gloves when using soap and water for prolonged periods or when using harsh chemicals.

Combines well with Chamomile - another skin caring herb, also good as a hair oil for blonde hair. Comfrey - a soothing oil for stiff and aching joints - particularly good for helping to heal small fractures, damaged ligaments and tendons. Do not use on open wounds. Lavender - the familiar, soothing fragrance of Lavender is ideal for a relaxing, calming oil. Ideal for a bedtime bath or massage oil. Nettle - another herbal hair friend, good as a general hair oil, also makes for a soothing oil for irritated skin. Parsley - Ideal addition to a herbal hair oil for remedying thin or falling hair. Rose - a delicately fragranced oil, soothing for the emotions and good for dry or mature skin. Rosemary - excellent choice for a hair oil (for dark hair) - will condition hair and nourish the scalp; Rosemary also makes a wonderfully soothing massage oil for muscular aches and pains and bruises. Also helps deter mosquitos. Sage - another excellent choice for a hair oil - again dark hair, especially grey. Also useful for remedying dandruff</div>Ankionthemovehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02975209562434289902noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5380285254756183631.post-80790160005987434772009-06-21T04:09:00.000-07:002009-06-21T04:35:45.278-07:00herbal hair oil for thick shiny black hair<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKl8hhwJETWwC0-3enJas2_RTF2fUW7QXQauSHK7OaFJcQP9ol6BHvGIEwTH45JTCJJtvHPuVWOidpZ-Lwt_ILgjFGLXORbXdacRCuoQaxGG_j-rtQZoyFHb9fK37_ESnsW_kE0FnHRMk/s1600-h/dyi-brahmi-amla-kesh-tail.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5349743062847089266" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKl8hhwJETWwC0-3enJas2_RTF2fUW7QXQauSHK7OaFJcQP9ol6BHvGIEwTH45JTCJJtvHPuVWOidpZ-Lwt_ILgjFGLXORbXdacRCuoQaxGG_j-rtQZoyFHb9fK37_ESnsW_kE0FnHRMk/s400/dyi-brahmi-amla-kesh-tail.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div><strong>herbal oil recipes for hair</strong></div><br /><div></div><br /><div>1)take 100 gms of powder (bramhi,amla,hibiscus,bhringraj,fenugreek) of the above herbs and Soak it individually in 500Ml coconut oil for 10 to 15 days in different glass bottles.<br />Than boil it and strain it. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>2)To make herbal hair oil, First you have to heat the coconut oil. when it comes to one boil, put all the ingedients which you have like fenugreek ,bhringraj leaves ,amla etc. but while using hibiscus make sure you don't take same quantity as the rest, this is becoz hibiscus will make your hair very very soft.
