How to Remove Eye Make Up

Our eyes are one of the most sensitive parts of our body. The last thing you want to do is to get a full bunch of makeup or soap in them and regret that $8 you spent on that new eye shadow you didn't really need anyway. We'll start with the baby shampoo method and then go on to all the products in your bathroom cabinet that can get the job done, too -- without forking over the cash for a fancy eye-makeup remover.

1. Use baby shampoo. Think it's just for bathing little ones? The "tear free" baby shampoo is a great way to remove mascara (even waterproof), eyes shadow and eyeliner. Eye makeup removers can get pretty pricey (especially if you wear eye makeup frequently), so this is an affordable and a pain-free way to remove makeup. Without the burning!






2. Wet the area of your eyes with some warm tap water. Alternatively, you can dab some shampoo on a cotton ball and wipe it over your eyelids. Using cotton balls ensures that this process is a little more mess free.
·         If you'd like to only remove some of your makeup (you smudged it or made a mistake, for example), use a Q-tip! Just dab on some shampoo (or whatever you have at your disposal) on the necessary area. Then wipe it off with the other end of the Q-tip. Voila!


3. Apply a small amount of baby shampoo and massage it. Some foam will most likely appear. Keep your eyes closed so nothing gets in them. Even if it is "tear free" you don't want to take any risks!

4. clean it off with lukewarm water. 
Just like you would any cleanser, grab your wash cloth and gently wipe off the baby shampoo. Tada! Then gently wipe your face dry with a cloth towel.

·         If baby shampoo doesn't work for you or you don't have any on hand, try the methods discussed below!

5 Tips for Foot care


1. Smooth It Out.
Make it a habit to use a pumice stone or foot file on damp heels and calluses. Doing so will keep your feet looking good in open-back shoes.
First, soak your feet in water or a foot bath for 10 to 15 minutes to help soften the skin. Then gently remove the thickened skin with a pumice stone. New York podiatrist Isaac Tabari, DPM, recommends a warm foot bath made of black tea (tannic acid). Tannic acid, he says, is a natural antibacterial agent that may reduce the chance of getting athlete’s foot.

2. Moisturize.
If your heels are very dry and cracked, see a podiatrist or dermatologist for a prescription treatment. If they’re not that bad, there are plenty of moisturizing products from which to choose.
First, you might try some medicated heel pads, which don't need a prescription, to soften calluses while you walk. After you’ve exfoliated the calluses, use a heavy cream to moisturize tough skin on your heel.

3. Fight Fungus.
Over-the-counter antifungal treatments come in many forms -- lacquers, creams, lotions, liquids, spray powders, and spray liquids. These products work best on mild cases of athlete’s foot, and probably not at all with toenail fungus, which is difficult to treat.  
No matter the form, they have one of the following active ingredients, which are all equally effective:  terbinafine, tolnaftate, miconazole, ciclopirox, or clotrimazole. Tabari says tea tree oil, sometimes called melaleuca oil, also works well on mild cases of athlete’s foot.

4. Wear Sunscreen.
Wear sunscreen on the tops of your feet. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 to your feet when you're going barefoot or wearing open sandals. 

5. Get Support.
Standing for a long time can make your feet sore. Wearing insoles can help make shoes more comfortable.

·         Look for insoles that have a plastic shell at the bottom. Podiatrists say the shell makes them strong enough to provide real support.

Tips to make your nails stronger

Stop biting your nails:
 The first rule you need to follow if you wish to have beautiful nails is to stop biting them. Most people rarely do it without even realizing that they are at it and therefore a conscious effort needs to be made, if you wish to kick the habit. However, if you can't seem to exercise control, then apply a bitter-tasting nail coat. It could help.

Go for regular pedicures and manicures: 
Make a trip to the parlor at least twice a month. Regular stashing of files and keeping them even help make your nails grow stronger.

Soak your nails in olive oil: 
While this could prove to be an expensive affair, soaking your nails in olive oil does help. Do it on a weekly basis.

Eat healthy: 
Having a balanced diet not only helps your nails but your overall body too. Researchers also say consuming too many sweets can make your nails brittle and unhealthy. So, avoid having too many sugar delicacies.


Drink water: Drinking an sufficient amount of water can help flush out toxins from your body. This can help your nails stay hydrated.

8 Tips for Dressing with style:

Select dress that flatters
every woman has a distinct shape and coloring.  Take time to learn what your body type is and what styles of clothing look best on your shape.  Don’t assume what looks good on someone else will naturally look as good on you.  For your best looks dress with your unique body in mind.  Choose well fitting flattering clothes.  Each woman also has a particular complexion and hair coloring. 

Smartness Counts
Even if you have beautiful clothes that flatter your face and body if they are not clean and neat you will not come across as elegant.  Before you put something on make sure it is free of stains and that it is wrinkle free.  This tells people that you are competent and that you care about yourself.

Ditch the most recent Trends
it’s important to differentiate between style and trend.  Style, even if it looks dated, will still look good on you when you look back at old photos years from now.  Fads and trends are those things that change every other season and aren’t particularly flattering.  When picking clothes keep them modern but don’t overdo it on fly by night fads. 

Describe Your Signature Style
How do you define your signature style?  What image do you want people to think of when they see you?  Country chic?  Soft and feminine?  Creative and artsy?  Bold and beautiful?  Figure out how you would define the look you want people to recognize you for.  Work on refining that look by choosing quality, classy pieces that reflect you individuality.

Dress For the occasion
One of the biggest things that sets an elegant women apart from the crowd is her appropriateness in dress.  An elegant woman takes time to consider the events she is attending and dresses accordingly.  She knows that what should be worn to a backyard BBQ is going to be different than what should be worn to a dinner out with friends.  As a general rule it’s better to be slightly over dressed than underdressed if you aren’t sure exactly what to wear. 
Invest sensibly
It is a good idea to invest in a few quality, staple pieces that can be used versatilely.  Invest in things like a good coat, simple jewelry such as pearls or a silver bracelet, a neutral handbag, a pair of nice heels or a simple black dress.  These things are classics and chances are you will get a lot of use out of them.


Choose the Right Accessories
The rules of dress have gotten a bit more lenient over the years. It’s no longer imperative that your shoes are the same color as your purse but it’s still a good idea to consider your accessories.  Making sure that your shoes are the right ones for your outfit and that your purse doesn’t clash will give you an extra touch of class.  And putting on a simple necklace and earrings will immediately give your appearance a more put together, sophisticated look.

Less is More
Accessories are good but don’t overdo it.  And we’ve all seen that lady with gobs of makeup, bulky jewelry and heavy perfume.  Often times less is more when it comes to looking elegant.  Strive for a look that says effortless beauty.
