One of your nails look as if it has been a meal to a rodent, and another one is shaped (or unshaped) to resemble something between a square and a round. Dirty, unkempt and shapeless nails will often spoil your entire look, even if you are dressed in your hottest couture. But don’t panic! You don’t have to wait for the nail to grow and gain back its shape and lost glory, as you can go in for the various nail quick fixes available. Check it out……….

Nail Extensions:

If your manicure has cut the length of your nails short, it’s nail extension to yor rescue. in this process, artificial but real looking nails are chosen according to the width of your own nail. They are glued onto your natural nail, and then cut to the length of your choice.

Then the skilled professional will file the nails into perfection and apply a colour or gloss of your choice on them. And the best bet is that – it’s the easiest, and the cheapest way to get long and glamorous nails in a jiffy!

Acrylic nail extension can give you sturdy and healthy looking nails. An acrylic solution is applied at the base of your nail, on the area where the artificial one is bonded with your natural one.

Once the artificial nail is bonded, a gel with thick viscosity is applied all over the nail. This get is usually set under UV light. Silk wrap method provides long lasting results. A thin light weight linen is applied to the base of the bonded nail. Apart from silk, wraps in linen or fiberglass  are also common.

You can go in for “refills” once your nail grow, to conceal the gap between the base of the nail and the extension. This will help you maintain your extended nails longer while giving it a natural look. You could also go in for “buff and polish”, where the nails are buffed back  to shape and polished to give back its finish.

Nail art 

Flaunt nails of different lengths and colours! Sport artificial nails with wild and creative designs! It’s a rage, since it offers a variety of multi-dimensional and multicoloured designs. Mood for an extra sparkle? Then opt for stick-on diamantes and crystals. Give it a protective layer of clear topcoat. What better way to hide your flawed nail?

Nail Tattoo 

A tattoo on your nails is fun and trendy!  It will also take off the attention from your shapeless blunder. They are temporary, and of the stick-on variety to be applied over your nail, more or less like the “bindi”.

Always make sure that you go to a skilled nail expert to give you that perfect to give you that perfect manicure. You could also go into nail spas and indulge in different treatments available exclusively for your fingers.

Tips to toe 

When giving yourself a manicure at home remember………..

Always file your nails only in one direction use a non-acetone nail polish remover.

Make sure you don’t peel your skin and cuticle off in the wrong direction.

Use a clean manicure set

Apply a clear nail polish as a top coat or sealer. This will minimise chipping or crasking of the nail.

It’s quite amazing how many women still battle to keep their eyeliners from smudging.

The reason it happens is because the eyes are naturally moist, and moisture along with laughing, blinking, sneezing and rubbing our eyes ruins make-up! But here are some tips to help it smudge less:

Avoid using too much moisturiser around the eye; it will convert liner into mush – not a bad look if you’re going to add to it chunky silver jewellery, a large red bindi and spout Marxist theories, but that’s probably not the look you want. Try an eye gel in lieu of eye cream. Be sure to give it a couple of minutes to absorb before applying make-up. Keep eyeliner in place with this three layer trick:

Use an ear bud to trace a line of neutral-coloured matte powder or eye shadow around the circumference of the eye as a base on which you’ll run the eyeliner. Use a pencil liner and dot along the lash line, crating your desired shape.

Now, use a fine-pointed brush and an eye shadow in the same shade as the pencil you used, trace over the pencil liner.

Clear Out

Here are five steps to a more organised dressing table: Go through all your make-up. You know it’s time to toss it if:

(a) the consistency, colour and/or odour has changed.

(b) if you haven’t worn it in the past six months, or

(c) the expiry date on it has passed.

Replace your mascara every three months, even if it’s not empty. You continually move the wand from your eye into the make-up and back again, you’re potentially spreading bacteria.

If you really want to minimise, put aside all the make-up that you would take with you on a business trip or vacation. Dump everything else. For special occasions, go to a salon to do your face. Sometimes it’s cheaper to have a professional to do it than to buy lots of different products and do it yourself.

Remember to look at your foundation, concealer and powder shades regularly. Your skin tone changes with exposure to the sun. Plus creamy formula sometimes don’t last very long. It’s best to change them every six to eight months.

Make-Up Break Up

I saw in papers, books, one of our readers recently said: “I always end up with pimples whenever I apply make-up. What can I do ?”

The sad fact is that the better the condition of your skin, the better your make-up will look on it, but the less you’ll need it! If you have a tendency to get acne or little bumps after applying make-up, it’s possible that the product you’re using is making it worse. Or it could be that the applicators you’re using are not clean, thus spreading bacteria around.

Make sure your hands are clean. For example, if you’ve just pet your dog or been cooking, don’t dip the same hand into your foundation. Always wash up first!

Be sure to clean your make-up brushes regularly. Wash them with regular shampoo, but be sure to rinse well, as soap residue can irritate your skin. The same goes for velour powder puffs and foundation sponges; these must be washed or replaced regularly.

Keep your make-up containers tightly closed (so dust doesn’t get in) and store them in a cool, dry environment, as heat and humidity can promote the growth of bacteria.

Cleanse your skin with an acne-fighting product and use an oil-free moisturiser.

Close The Pores

Creating a natural look when you have large pores, dry skin and Rosacea is another bug. The best way to create a natural look is to use very little make-up! First consult a dermatologist and treat the Rosacea. For large pores, use a pore refining product. For a quick fix:

Soothe the skin as much as possible, either with topical antibiotics from your dermatologist or topical anti-inflammatories, such as alpha lipoic acid.

Dampen your face with water and then pat on a gentle oil-free moisturiser. Let it absorb.

Add a drop more oil-free moisturiser to the tips of your fingers or make-up sponge, Then add your foundation and lightly pat the mixture onto the red areas. Let it set.

Finish with translucent powder. If you’d like to try something extra creative, go for MAC Select Cover-Up, a tinted concealer. To counteract redness, use the green tint, but do remember to apply very conservatively. Place about a teaspoon of foundation in the palm of your hand, Mix in a tiny dot of cover up, blend together, and apply as directed above.

Keep Within The Lines

I have something to say,You are the one that can make my day! When I need a helping hand you are there without delay,Your love and understanding I can only hope to repay.You’ve done so many things for me.You’ve always given more than you receive You’ve been there for me in all I do,A shoulder to cry on with all I’ve been through.You give of yourself your heart and soul.You’ve always been the one to console.Together we’ve laughed and cried.From the first time I laid eyes on you to the last kiss on my lips ,the first time I felt your soft finger tips, the way you held me tight, made love eemed to me that in my heart that you would see a person as loving as me someone whose heart is true someone just like you………………….Now I sit here all alone nothing but me and my thoughts of you all through my mind.
As if I could turn back the hands of time to the moment when your soft lips touched mine…I’m sorry I didn’t mean to make you cry…………………………………………..

My Sweet Loving Darling, I do try I love you and I do know why……………When you think of your past love, you may view it as a failure. But when you find a new love, you view the past as a teacher. In the game of love, it doesn’t really matter who won or who lost.What is important is you know when to hold on and when to let go! You know you really love someone when you want him or her to be happy, even if their happiness means that you’re not part of it.

Everything happens for the best. If the person you love doesn’t love you back, don’t be afraid to love someone else again, for you’ll never know unless you give it a try. You’ll never love a person you love unless you risk for love. Love strives in hurting. If you don’t get hurt, you don’t learn how to love. Love doesn’t hurt all the time.Though the hurting is still there to test you, to help you grow Loving. Loving someone means giving him the freedom to find his way, whether it leads towards you or away from you. Love is a painful risk to take but the risk must be taken no matter how scary or painful, for only then you’ll experience the fullness of humanity and that is love. Only love can hurt your heart, fill you with desire and tear you apart. Only
love can make you cry and only love knows why. If you’re not ready to cry, if you’re not ready to take the risk, if you’re not ready to feel the pain, then you’re not ready to fall in love.

There was a time in our lives when we became afraid to fall in love ‘coz every time we do, we get hurt, then i figured that’s why it’s called “Falling in Love”.

One last chance I sit here as the days go by thinking of you and trying not to cry I always wonder if you ever think of me I love you so much why can’t you see I sit here and daydream of all the things we’ve done wondering if you’ll ever realize you are the one I can’t go on with you not here I miss You so much and the feelings of you always near I don’t know what to do I’ve done. All I can maybe one day I’ll have the chance to call you mine again ……………..

Yaa you always mine only, what ever you think about me I don’t care. Because You are the my first love, first kiss, and first………….. last my true love in my really lifetime. but I really really know onething this is happend only my side.Because if u really love me,you will never left me alone here. But you do me everything and went without said me anything…………………….

Carry A Heart that Never Hates…
Carry a Smile that Never Fades…
Carry a Touch that never Hurts…
Carry a Friendship that Never Fails.

A single candle can illuminate an entire room.
A true friend lights up an entire lifetime. Thanks
for the bright lights of youur friendship

A friend is a push when you have stopped, a chat when
you are lonely, a guide when you are searching, a smile when
you are sad, a song when you are glad.

The greatest gift you can give 2 somebody is your time. Because u r giving him that portion of your Life which u will NEVER get Back…

*** How You Make Me Feel I love how we can tell each other everything, That makes me feel like we really trust each other.I love how you say, “I Love you”, That makes me love you ever more.I love the way you hug me, That makes me feel so safe and loved.I love how we can sit forever and just talk, That makes me feel really close to you.I love the way you call just to say “hi”, That makes me feel so lucky to have someone like you.I love how we sometimes jokingly fight, That makes me feel like we are really close friends.I love how you try to make me a better person, That makes me feel like you really care about me.You were changed my life in so many ways. I hope you see how much I care about you.

You are not responsible for what people think about you.
But you are responsible for what you give them to think about you.

Keep the faith and drop the fear. Don’t believe your doubts and don’t doubt your beliefs. Life is a mystery to solve not a problem to resolve. Trust me. Life is wonderful if you know how to live.

Do you know the relationship between two eyes..? They blink together,

They move together, they cry together, they see things together and

They sleep together BUT THEY NEVER SEE EACH OTHER .. that’s what’s friendship

.
.
But when a beautiful girl comes in front, one eye goes blink and the other remains open…

Moral of the story : Girls can break even the best of friendships.

Measured by miles,
U r far from me ….
Measures by thoughts
U r closer to me…
Measured by closed eyes
U r with me ….
Measured by heart
U r in me……
Hundred words does not give pain…..
But
A true friend s silence makes more tears in heart ……
So always keep in touch my FRIEND………….
