TECHNIQUES TO MAKE YOUR MANICURE LAST LONGER!

                                  

  Hi everyone, I talked about nail polish hues/colours some days ago.Having beautifully coloured nails is one thing,making them last long enough to rock them is another.I know how annoying it can be when you have this beautiful nails done and the next day you see it's chipped: yeah, i know that feeling.So i decided to give u a few tips to enjoy your newly polished nails.
   Nail polish on natural nails don't last too long because our nails have natural oils that cause the nail polish to lift from the nails. Some other reason's include:

1.The nail polish was too thick.
2. A base coat was not used.
3. The nail itself is chipping and breaking.
4. The polish was not dried properly.
5. There were traces of oily residues on the nails.

NOW TO THE TECHNIQUES!

MY FACE FEELS SOOOOOO SOFT AND SUPPLE *BLUSHING*

WHAT'S UR FAVE NAIL POLISH COLOUR?

BRING CHANGE TO YOUR DAILY ROUTINE!
         Fuchsia red, navy blue,green tea, royal yellow and light purple.These are my five fave nail polish colours right now.Loving these neon colours(not all five together) cos they pop up any outfit and add colour to your look.

Also loving the "two shades of the same colour" trend. Contrast is the name of the game

                                       

 Pale nails/neutral coloured nails is a minimalist trend that seems to be coming on strong, giving a pale, understated look.Toning down the colour of your nails is also the  way to go now.
                                              
      
            
Metallic coloured nail polish in a variety of shades are so on this year, as well as the" two tone" trend.
                                          

 Whatever look you are going for, be sure that these trends take you from daytime to night.They can easily transition a look from preppy, to chic and all the way to glamourous.

BODY SHAVING- TO SHAVE/WAX OR NOT TO SHAVE?

THE LINE BETWEEN SEXY AND SCARY IS VERY THIN!
In this our hot Naija weather,we surrender ourselves to clothing we can't do without; tank tops, tights, leggings, beach wears, handless gowns, etc all body revealing clothes.And with these comes the exposure of our arms,under-arms and legs.

  There's really no hygienic purpose for body shaving (except of course the pubic hair).There just seemed to be a growing tendency in the generation under 20/30 to see body hair as disgusting,as it is universally practiced in all modern cultures.Someone just thought shaving made clothes look better; it became a fashion.

SUN CHEATERS - SUNGLASSES

                                              

Sunglasses are a form of protective eyewear designed to prevent sunlight and glare.But these days we basically use them as fashion accessories.These season we see women rocking the D- frame sunglasses and sunglasses in different colours.

   Whatever your style is,there's a pair of sunglasses for you.For those who enjoy the edgy rock-and -roll influences of modern fashion,sunglasses from Ed Hardy or juicy Couture are just right for you.If you're more into classical, contemporary style,then check out sunglasses from Cole Haan,Kenneth cole reaction or Hugo Boss.When your sunglasses just has to have a name on them, then look at sunglasses from Just Cavalli, Marc Jacobs and Kate Spade. Finally,if  you want a pair that's both fashionable and timeless, then you want a pair of original Ray Ban's.

     Make a sophisticated statement and frame your face in a fabulous set of shades*wink*

                                       

                                            

HOW TO MAINTAIN YOUR YOUTHFUL LOOK! 10 things you should be doing now!

             

                      

Sometimes you wake up in the morning, look in the mirror and see someone you don't recognize.Your face looks dull and not so young anymore.That's something to be worried about.The wierd thing is, as you grow older, this starts to happen more often.this shows a lack of a "SKIN CARE ROUTINE".If u haven't got into a skin care regime yet,you need to do it now!
   Here are 10 steps that always seem to get the job done and ensure the fewest breakouts and other skin issues.
 1. KNOW YOUR SKIN TYPE;
     Is your skin dry, sensitive, combination, oily or normal? Knowing your skin type helps you buy products that will help and not hinder your skin's health.

WHAT AGE TO SEND KIDS ON ERRANDS OUTSIDE THE HOUSE ?

My friend came to see me one day, then i sent my four yr old daughter(going on 5) to get her a drink from the supermarket by my house.My friend was so surprised that i could send her on such an errand.To her, my daughter was too young for such an errand.But my daughter went and came back;drink and change in hand.My friend was astonished.She said she has a niece who is 6 and has never been sent on such errands.

     Dear readers,what do you think is the right age to send kids on errands outside the house? personally, i think 5yrs and above is ok but should not be farther than the next house initially.Instead kids should be educated about their environment and surroundings.They should be given strict instructions like " if the store is not open,come back home" or "don't talk to anyone" or "don't go anywhere else" etc.

     accountability of how the money was spent is also important.that way, kids learn about money and cost of items especially for female children.Also,the first few times the kids go,they should be monitored from a distance and when they return,they should be applauded and praised.They'll feel so proud of themselves.

This is my opinion.what do you think?

WHITEN YOUR TEETH AT HOME

Hi everyone! Just heard about this and wanted to share it with u guyz.i have not tried it yet,but I sure would.I mean who doesn't want whiter teeth.

You need
1. A can of bicarbonate of soda or baking soda.
2. A Lime or lemon.
3. A saucer and
4. A toothbrush

Put half a teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda/ baking soda in a saucer.squeeze half a lime/lemon into it (u'll get a bubbly reaction. But that's normal).Mix them together properly wen d bubbling stops. Take your toothbrush and dab on just a little of mix.brush your teeth with it.Rinse your mouth thoroughly.ALL DONE!

It's preferably to do this like once a week.Just before going to bed at nite.


NOTE:  * Do not try this on kids.
              *Use a separate toothbrush for this and not your regular one.
              * As we know too much of anything is bad.Do not over-do it as it might damage your
                 enamel.
              * this information was not given by an expert.just someone's experience.

LADIES! LET'S GO GET OUR HAIR STEAMED!

Steam is beneficial for our skin and very good for the hair. Steaming our hair has a multitude of effects that helps to keep our hair healthy inspite of the damage done by the weather change and air pollution.A healthy scalp is our call to a healthier,stronger hair.

Switch to a shampoo and conditioner which contains eucalyptus, menthol, peppermint oil and some honey when steaming to stimulate blood flow to the roots of the hair by massaging d hair products properly into d scalp with your fingertips.


WHY WE MUST STEAM OUR HAIR;
      1. To open hair pores; it is important to steam our hair before oiling it because the steam opens up all the clogged pores of the hair .If the pores are clogged, the hair gets no nourishment which may lead to limp ness and breakage of the hair.

      2. Clears the scalp; while washing the hair cleans d scalp,STEAMING removes the stubborn stains stuck to the scalp along with all the grease in the hair.

       3. Promotes hair growth; steaming is a good remedy for hair growth problems.it activates the hair follicles and promotes hair growth.

HOW TO TEACH PERSONAL HYGIENE TO TEENAGE GIRLS

Young teenage girls going through a transition period in their lives need to pay more attention to their  personal hygiene.Sweat glands that once lay dormant may become active, leading to body odor, and hormone levels change, causing hair to grow in places it never grew before.

The practice of good hygiene can make the changes a teenage girl goes through easier to deal with.
      Examples of such practices include; * Shower daily
                                                                 * Brush your teeth morning and night.
                                                                  * keep facial skin clean.
                                                                  * Use antiperspirants and deodorants.
                                                                  *. Change your clothes daily.
                                                                   * keep hair clean.
                                                                  *hair removal.

Step 1: Take your kid/ward to the pharmacy .Help her choose shampoos, antiperspirants, soaps, shaving gels shaving sticks that she needs to practice good personal hygiene.Allow her smell the various products and make her own selections.
 
Step 2 : keep lessons about personal hygiene light.Never embarrass the teen by saying things like "you smell" or "look at that greasy hair" instead use starters like "I use this great shampoo that really stops my hair from feeling so oily" or "you should try this terrific smelling body wash I just bought"

Step 3 : Set an example .A teen is old for you to baby and stand over as she washes herself.Instead, lead by example by announcing when you plan to shower, wash your hands and brush/ floss the teeth.If she sees you taking good care of your  body, she'll be encouraged to do the same.

Step 4 : Have regular talks with her on personal hygiene and new products u've discovered.Buy for her as well while you purchase yours and they should come in pretty girly colors

Step 5 :  Compliment her when you notice her following your advice on personal hygiene.Let her know she looks and smells good.
