15 tips for safe Diwali

Posted: 03 Nov 2010 09:24 PM PDT

Twenty years ago I got severely burnt on Diwali.Though I was a small child that time but I do remember the incident clearly till now as it left deep impact on me. A god sent Ayurvedic Doctor saved my face through his herbal remedy otherwise surgery was the only option left. I still have burnt marks on my hands though thankfully not on face.


I am sharing this with you guys today because I always get concerned about kids on Diwali.

I never let any kid come near to me when I am cooking something in kitchen because the feeling of being burnt is still in my heart.

I didn't attend school for four months and when I resumed back I came to know that there was a boy in our class who too got burnt but his situation was worse because the cracker got into his eyes. Every year  number of people lose their eyesight and sustain burns .

The festival of lights , Diwali brings fun and togetherness but it loses is charm when incident like these take place.

Below are some of the ways by which one can prevent loss of eyesight and other mis happenings on Diwali

1.Whenever you ignite crackers use a candle or agarbatti. This way you can keep a greater distance between your hands and fireworks.

2. An adult should always be there to supervise the use of fireworks by children.

3. Keep a fire extinguisher or bucket near by to stop any incipient fire.

4. Choose the area carefully before igniting fore works. There should be any material lying in the area which is inflammable.

5. Most of the incident take place because of rockets and missiles as they need lot of space. It is advisable to lighten the fireworks in open grounds .

6 Move quickly from the burst and light one fireworks at a time.

7. Wait for the fireworks to get finished properly.

8. Store fireworks in a cool , dry and safe place.

9 Igniting fireworks while holding them is a recipe of disaster.

10. Do not experiment with fireworks.

11. Never try to re use the fireworks.

12. No matter how safe the firework is, do not think of throwing it on someone else.

13. Do not carry fireworks in your pockets.

14. If there is an eye injury then consult an eye specialist without delaying it.

15. Don't burn fireworks on a vehicle.

Hope my small tips help you people.

Have a fun filled and beautiful Diwali!!!

                                Sheer body white lily body lotion fragranced sheer body moisturizer

I carried this body lotion while coming to Delhi and I am glad I did.I have never heard of this brand but now I know why Poornima choose this as a giveaway.This is a real nice product to be used while you are traveling.The temperature in Delhi is getting cold but my skin still doesn't feel dry therefore this products suits me perfectly.

The reason is that it gives me cool feeling, soothes my skin and the texture is not greasy.I guess this is a great travel product to be used by oily skin people in summer or spring season.




I have completed the whole tube  with in seven days as I loved applying it so much


This is actually a sheer body lotion which makes oily skin go ga ga and I am really fond of its fragrance too.Only thing is that if you fall in love with it like me then you might end up finishing it in five days only.


Thanks Poornima.

Hope you hold more of giveaways like this

Lots of love

Make up look - Easy eye make up by using Revlon colorstay sparkling eyelner

Posted: 03 Nov 2010 09:35 AM PDT

Hey everyone!!!

This week is going to be exciting for so many of us and the reason is the long weekend ahead.Most of you must be having four days holiday or may be three at a stretch.So every one has some or the other reason to enjoy themselves.I am too looking forward for my husband to come here so that we can celebrate Diwali together.

I wore this eye makeup look whole day today when I went to meet my relatives.Every body asked me about  the eyeshadow which I used in this look but the thing was that I just used two eyeliners for it.You can wear this in your office party as well where you do not want to wear too much of shimmery make up.

I used these two eyeliner for this look

1. Revlon colorstay sparkling eyeliner Mauve spark
2. Magic eyeliner pencil Antique copper




Antique copper is easy to use and perfect for any party make up or you can wear it this Diwali as well.Will review it later.

It took me exactly five minutes in doing this eye make up and there was no hard and fast eye makeup technique which I used in this.

Eyeliner how to


Step1 - Clean and prime your eyes.If you don't have a primer then dab some powder and apply some foundation on it.

Step2 - Use Mauve colour eyeliner and cover your half eyelid with it.

Step3 - Apply copper colour (no gold colour this time ) from  where you stop till the crease.Apply it on the outer corner as well.Blend both the colours.You can use your finger also for it.

Step4 - Apply the same copper in the lower lash line as well.

Step5 - Apply a thick layer of eyeliner(If you have small eyes then use thin eyeliner).

Step6 - Curl your eyelashes and apply mascara.


You are done . I clicked both the pics after coming back home otherwise the look was much brighter.

Eye make up can be done any way.One just have to try   

Enjoy the festival and have a safe Diwali !!!
