Lips! Care for Lips!

It's a Lip Thing!

• To get glass-smooth lips, brush them very gently with an old, soft toothbrush to exfoliate. Apply Petroleum jelly and allow it to soak in for 30 minutes or so.

• The way to impeccable make up is through a lip  liner. Keep it handy at all times. Make sure it is the same colour as your lipstick. Outline your lips just over your lip's natural border, so they'll look slightly fuller and younger and then blend it. Lip liner acts as a magnet keeping your lipstick locked in place for long.

• If you don't use a lip liner, apply a coat of lipstick and then blot with a tissue. Apply a second coat. Repeat for long lasting power. If you are a lady of leisure and have time on hand, get this right:  Blot lips by pressing a tissue over your lips gently with your fingers. Now, place a clean tissue over your lips. Dust translucent powder over the tissue with a powder brush. Finish by applying one last coat of lipstick and gently blot with another tissue. This application technique will dramatically increase your lipstick's stay on time!

• Know your lipstick formula: Creamy, glossy formula contain plenty of emollient ingredients, which make them likely to smear off. matte or opaque formula contain fewer emollients , so they have more staying power.

Popular Diets

#NainiSetalvad demystifies some popular diets.

ATKINS DIET:

This popular diet belongs to the low carbohydrate plan. But this high proteine and high fat diet can lead to damaged kidneys, elevated blood pressure, sugar and cholesterol. It can also cause gout and constipation.

                                                                   

BLOOD TYPE DIET:

This diet advocates eating food according to your blood groups. For example, those with blood group B (negative) cannot eat tomatoes, wheat, moong dal and bananas. It is practically very hard to follow because it requires meticulous planning, to avoid a wide range of food groups. Besides, the blank ban on food types can cause vitamin deficiencies. 

                                                                     

VEGAN DIET:

This is a pure vegetarian diet which avoids animal and dairy products. It is tough to follow, when dairy products are an intrinsic part of Indian meals. More significantly, this can lead to Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D3 deficiencies.

                                                                      

SOUTH BEACH DIET:

This diet avoids cereals and fruits, to concentrate on proteins. But the imbalance can lead to constipation, acidity and gout. 

Eyes Bright

For Bright Eyes 

Ingredients:

1 tbsp Aloe vera gel

2 tsp Cucumber peeled and grated

1/2 tsp Honey

1/2 tsp Chamomile tea

Method:

Steep the Chamomile tea in boiling water and leave it to cool. Blend Cucumber, Aloe vera gel and Honey in a mixture on low setting.

Add Chamomile tea and blend to smooth consistency.

Apply to the under eyes gently using your ring finger.

Store in a glass dish covered with a cling wrap and refrigerate (this can be stored for a week)

Best applied chilled, this helps reduce puffiness and cools and refreshes the under eye contours.

Treatments for your Foot!

While it is better to have these conditions checked by a professional, there are a few ways you can ease the pain at home.



 Blisters:
Keep the area clean, dry and covered until they go away. Avoid putting pressure on them.

Calluses:
Soak your feet in warm soapy water for 10 mins and then rub the area with a pumice stone. The stone gets rid of the dead skin. Shoe pads also help relieve the pressure.

Corns:
These are harder to get rid off. While corn pads and plasters might help relieve the pain temporarily, you need to see a chiropodist.

Foot note: 
Over-the-counter treatments don't treat the underlying foot disorder. Worse, they might also damage the surrounding healthy skin if used incorrectly. It's always best to seek professional medical advice.




For Supple Soles:

Mira Kulkarni, Director of Forest Essentials India, recommends, "the high maintenance luxury foot cream by Forest Essentials is super charged with skin softening and nourishing plants extracts and is ideally suited for a foot massage.
An ideal biweekly foot care routine would involve a foot soak to relax and soften the feet. Follow with a scrub with sea salts, crushed walnuts and essential oils to remove dead skin and exfoliate. Finish with a foot reflexology massage, which stimulates, cleanses and balances all organs of the body. Otherwise do a basic foot massage, where you massage around the ankle, pinching down the achilles tendon that connects the calf muscle to the heels. Support the foot by holding the heel and let the arch rest on the palm. Meanwhile, use the thumb of the other hand to firmly stroke from the ankle to between each of the toes."

Tulsi, Medically Speaking

Basil leaves (tulsi, which is actually the variety called 'holy basil') are aromatic and carminative. they have been used since ancient times in India to soothe sore throats and stomach upsets.

For sore throats, tummy upsets: Boil water with clean tulsi leaves and a little grated ginger. Add a spoonful of honey and a sprinkle of pepper. Sip this fragrant mixture as hot as possible.

You will feel better almost immediately.

For headaches: Chew on Basil leaves.

For Stress Headaches: Inhale dry powdered leaves for instant relief.

Basil seeds were believed to be a great antidote for warts and snake poison. You need to put a seed on the bite and Voila!

Hair Colour Care

Colour Care!

• Remember to deep condition your hair a few days before your colour treatment. It will help replenish lost moisture and keep your locks shiny and resilient. Hair gets damaged with chemical treatments, heat styling and environmental pollution.

• Just before you go for the process, wash your hair with a clarifying shampoo or a mix of vinegar and baking soda. This helps remove product build-up or sebaceous deposits.

• If you have applied henna to your hair in the last year, avoid perming or using a chemical colour.

• Avoid chlorine and salt water for a few days after you colour your hair; it can cause adverse reactions to your new colour.

• Don't use hot water and don't shampoo your hair too often (wait two or three days between shampoo), if you want your colour to stay. Hot water opens up hair cuticles and allows pigments to escape. Wash with cool water to keep the dazzle in your colour. In fact, rinse with cool to cold water to close the hair cuticle and lock the colour.

• Don't sun bath your hair; the colour can fade or change. Apply leave in conditioner with a sun protection factor to prevent UV rays from damaging the newly colored strands.

• Don't change your colour too often (avoid extremes on the colour wheel) or combine it with perms or straightening agents.

• Get decadent. Condition with olive oil and coconut oil if you have a coarse or thick hair; Use almond oil and sesame oil, if you have fine or thin hair.

• To heal and moisturize hair that has weathered many a style storm and is consequently doin a break, split or tangle , try jojoba oil.

DID YOU KNOW?
Colour appears different under fluorescent light than in natural sunlight (the reason why colourist ask you to see your hair in broad daylight).

Shoe Shopping Tips

Going Shoe Shopping? 

Take these tips along:

     

• The best time to go is late afternoon. As the day progresses, your feet swell. This means slip-ons bought early in the might feel tight later.
• Give your feet breathing space. Buy shoes with leather uppers. They also mould themselves around the foot to match its shape, making the shoes more comfortable to wear.
• Wiggle your toes when you put on new shoes. If you cannot, don't buy them. You are likely to experience problems later.
• Ensure at least 6 mm of space in front of the largest toe. Any less, and the constant contact with the shoe could damage your toe nails and skin.
• Wear shoes with different heel heights on different days to maintain flexibility in the leg muscles. Wear high heels sparingly, as the body pressure falls on the toes. 
• If the shoe is too tight and there is no option left for you, try putting little talcum powder on your feet before wearing the shoes. This will help the foot to glide in easily and will also prevent sweating.
• Use a hair drier for making your tight shoes comfortable for you. Wear socks and put on your shoes, blow hair drier over your shoes for several minutes. And your tight shoes are ready for comfortable wear.

BLACKHEADS:

• Most people just use scrubs excessively to get rid of blackheads. but you should always keep your skin type in mind.
• If you have a dry skin you should keep away from scrubs.
• If you have a sensitive skin, you should use scrub only on the problematic area.
• Oily skins can use it on the face.
• An apricot scrub should never be used on face, though it is made for face, because it is too harsh for face and is better suited for body as a body scrub.
• Use a scrub that has minute particles.
• Tretinoin ointment at night can help get rid of blackheads and pimples.

                                                             

  DRY SKIN:

• This skin type should be thoroughly moisturized.
• About 100 gm of evening prime rose oil capsules works well for this skin type.
• Bathing with an oilatum emulsion , put in a bucket of water, leaves a nice moisturized film all over your body.
