Nail art design - french manicure nail art designs tutorial

Posted: 29 Nov 2010 10:53 PM PST

Hellloess!!!

Yesterday after showing you girl swatches of Maybelline colorma nude pink (astral nail paiont) I did french manicure with it and then some nail art design.:D


  Here goes the tutorial of my nail art design

Step1 - First applied a base coat (it protects my nail as I have nail polish on my nails all the time ) and then applied the Maybelline nude pink on it.



Step 2 - To do the French manicure I pasted a  normal stripping tape below the tips of my nails.Make sure that the previous nail colour is completely dried otherwise when you will take out the tape nail paint will also come out with it.

Step3 - Applied white nail paint on the tips

Step 3- Gently remove the tape from the nails and here you have nice and clean french manicure


Step4 - Now with a help of a tooth pick or a dotting tool draw flowers as shown below.



Step5 - After forming the dot please don't wait for long just stretch the dots with a sewing needle.

You can leave the design as it is and finish it off with a top coat.I wanted to move ahead a bit though.


Step6 -With my old eyeliner brush I made this design in the end and finished it off with a top coat.

This is an easy free hand nail art design which is not gaudy and made with subtle colours.

Hope you liked my tutorial

Patanjali products - Ojas multani mitti soap review (Baba Ramdev)

Posted: 29 Nov 2010 09:28 PM PST

Patanjali - When I bought this soap I never thought I will be writing about this one but I am so glad to write about it the reason being that this soap is actually a multani mitti (fuller earth) soap.I have used Fuller earth many times on myself but never tried any soap.According to Patanjali they find the product quiet costly as per there standard but this is an amazing way to use fuller earth every day on your self.

Cost of Patanjali ojas multani mitti is Rs 35for 75gm


   
Product claims - Useful in rejuvenating , nourishing and glorifying the skin.

Base Material - Natural oil base, Multani mitti, zinc oxide and mint- mogra perfume.
With this it also has Aloe vera, Borax purified, Mentha piperita, Cinnamon camphora, Trachyspermum ammi, curcuma longa, Santlum album, Bacopa Monneiri

My experience with the product :-

Before using it I thought it is going to be a simple soap which will have some fuller earth smell or ingredient but when I started using I actually felt and saw fuller earth coming out from the soap.

Because of the fuller earth ingredient in this it melts away very easily therefor I do not let the soap stay for a long time in water.

It gives mild exfoliation  to my skin and there is no dryness after using it on my body.I don't use this on my face but using actual fuller earth  without much of hassle was fantastic.

Fragrance of the soap is  too of fuller earth which is very mild. 

Recommendation - This soap will suit all skin type and will be loved by those who like to apply fuller earth or any organic or herbal ingredient on their body .Though the soap doesn't last for long but it is not highly priced so I don't mind that.


P.S - I am no where related to Patanjali/divya pharmacy  neither the company has paid me in any form to review there products

Elle 18 Nail Pops (Reminds me of Big Boss Sarah :D:D) have the cutest packaging in the whole Elle 18 color bombs collection.

Elle 18 has 48 colours in this collection and they have tiny bottle which has these cute little  girl faces on them

Lots and lots of variety is there in this collection. I got confused what to pick and what not too pick.:D:D

Check out few of the swatches which I did while trying them are here..Sorry I did them in hurry


Price of Elle 18 color bombs is Rs 45 for 5ml

- Isn't that amazing and thankfully they have very few  mundane brown and reds in their collection.


    5ml is like too less but in Rs 45 I don't mind buying them.

  I got two for myself will share them with you with some nail art

Cervical cancer - signs and symptoms of cervical cancer and prevention

Posted: 29 Nov 2010 03:38 AM PST

By Gunjan, 

Cervical cancer - Our health is precious and it is our duty to take care of our own health and be aware about all the prevailing health related issues. Every woman should go through medical checkups to ascertain any health problems for a healthy life.

We often hear about many women who fall prey to various cancers of the reproductive organs. Thinking of cancer gives goose bumps to many as it is such a dangerous disease that in most cases one gets to know about it when it is too late. Therefore we should always be conscious and take required care of our self along with regular medical check to keep dreadful disease at bay.


Famous Big Brother contestant Jade Goody died of cervical cancer when she was least expecting it.

Causes of cervical cancer

Cervical cancer happens when malignant cells grow in the cervix which is the connecting path between the uterus and the vagina and helps in menstrual flow, transporting sperm from vagina through mucus discharge and also remains sealed during pregnancy opening up only when the baby is ready to give birth to.

Sad thing about cervical cancer is that it remain un noticed until it reaches it last stage or advanced stage.


Symptoms of cervical cancer

Abnormal vaginal bleeding, unusual heavy discharge, pain during urination, pelvic pain, bleeding after sexual intercourse and during menstrual periods. It is not necessary that these symptoms will lead to cervical cancer only but these do indicate some problem therefore it is advised that one must immediately go for medical check up.

How cervical cancer begins

It begins with growth of malignant cells on the cervix surface which eventually spread to the surrounding organs .Therefore when a woman experience bleeding or pain it can be because of the cancer which is spreading to multiple organs.

Best way to avoid this type of cancer is to follow a healthy life style and avoid unhealthy habits like smoking .Include fruit especially papaya which control the incidence of cancer to a large extent as it contains essential vitamins which are cancer preventive.

We all deserve to be  beautiful and healthy but for that we need to take the initiatives by our self

Lip treatment - Body Shop hi- shine lip treatment (Product review, swatches and pictures)

Posted: 29 Nov 2010 12:39 AM PST

 Body shop hi shine lip treatment 


I had a long weekend this time and I am little tired today.There are few things which brightens me when  I look tired and one of them  is Lip gloss.

I got this Body shop lip gloss some 6-7 months ago (You can figure it out by its condition I guess :D:D). I have used it so many times in my looks and it is my personnel favorite when I feel down and tired.

This is what the product claims - Keep your lips lustrous and conditioned with a passion fruit-scented gloss that features the perfect hint of color.


Best for: all skin tones


What it is designed to do:
Pearl pigments give lips a glimmering finish.
Provide effective hydration with an ultra-glossy, dermatologist-approved formulation that is long-lasting and non-sticky.
Moisturizing Community Trade marula oil from Namibia helps to repair skin's moisture barrier, leaving lips soft and supple.


      

    Price of Body shop Hi shine lip treatment is Rs 575

    "Raised eyebrows" :D:D
    I got 02 Mauve dream for myself .There are 9 colours as per the body shop website.

    Juicy Peach Hi-Shine Lip Treatment

    Perfectly Pink Hi-Shine Lip Treatment

    Pink CreamHi-Shine Lip Treatment

    02 Mauve DreamHi-Shine Lip Treatment

    Bronze BeamHi-Shine Lip Treatment

    Red GleamHi-Shine Lip Treatment
     
    Party Pink Hi-Shine Lip Treatment

    Coral Spice Hi-Shine Lip Treatment

    Cherry Glimmer Hi-Shine Lip Treatment

    My experience with the product :-

     I bought it thinking that it is a lip treatment but it is more of a gloss but I just love the gloss in it.

     What I like about body shop lip gloss

     1, It smells like a passion fruit which I truly love.

    2. It doesn't dry my lips and stays for long on them.I don even need a lip balm if I use this one.It actually seems to moisturize my lips.

     3. It has no sparkle in it and therefore it is perfect for every day use.

    4. My lip gloss is not very pigmented so I almost land up using it on all my lipstick.Though it does change the colour of my lipstick but I so like the subtle shine which it adds to my lips

    5. It comes in a tube form and it is easy to carry anywhere.

    6 . One tube is going to last forever.

    7 . It is very smooth and easy to apply on lips .Just like lip balm              

                                   Swatches of Body shop hi shine lip treatment



    It gives a nice shine to my lips and make me smile when I am tired and not interested in much of work

    Dislike -It doesn't come with a brush and there is no lip treatment .
    2. I find it expensive


    This is me with the Body shop -hi shine lip treatment and my Body shop coliur glide lip colour ..Sorry guys not put on much make up today       



    Hope I  get over with my Monday morning blues soon
