Remove Acrylic Nails

Posted by oreo | Beauty, Cosmetics | Tuesday 17 August 2010 10:32 pm

healthy-beautiful-nailsAcrylic nails look great and can be a life saver for those with weak nails or nails that just won’t grow well on their own. But like all things, even wearing acrylic nails must come to an end eventually.

Removing acrylic nails can be a difficult and painful task. If possible, get acrylic nails removed at the salon. Nail technicians us special tools and salon strength products that help remove nails painlessly and effectively. If it is not possible to get to the salon to have your acrylic nails removed, consider a few tips to help make the job a bit easier.

Soak Nails to be Removed

First, soak the nails to be removed in warm water for a few minutes. Add a few drops of sesame oil or olive oil for extra moisture if your fingers are already dry. Soaking your nails will prepare them for comfortably being worked with and make sure you do not split or crack your skin.

Loosen the Nail with Non-acetone Nail Polish Remover

Non-acetone remover is less harsh on your natural nails, and should be used before acetone remover to try to soften and loosen the nail. Soak nails in remover for several minutes and rub off polish and top layers of artificial enamel with a cotton rag. Also, remove your hands and try to gently peel the acrylic nails off. If you are met with resistance and any or all of the acrylic nails do not easily peel off, submerge your fingers in the polish remover again and soak for another five minutes. Never force a nail to come off if it’s not ready. Do not soak a nail that has an open cut or scratch to avoid stinging.

Be Careful with Nail Removal Tools

Manicuring tools used to remove acrylic nails at home can damage your natural nail that is already weakened due to the acrylic nail on top. If you try to use scissors, you could accidentally puncture your nail bed when trying to pry up a piece of acrylic or silicone. Poking and prying with a nail file can rip your nails and pry them away from the skin causing infections. Remember to keep soaking your nails, and start at the beginning of the process several times before expecting the nails to be totally removed.

Use Acetone Remover for Stubborn Nails

Acetone nail polish remover will help loosen and remove what the non-acetone nail polish couldn`t handle. Be careful of cuts on your fingers and use patience when trying to remove the nail.

Oil Your Natural Nails to Help Them Re-hydrate

Artificial nails dry out your nails because they do not allow your nails to breathe. Warm a little sesame oil or extra virgin olive oil and soak your nails for 10 to 15 minutes for a hydrating treatment.

File Down the Excess Left on the Nail

There is a good chance you will not be able to remove every inch of silicone or acrylic bonded to your nail. For spots that are rugged, gently use a soft file to smooth down the nail, and buff it afterwards.

Moisturize your Hands

After soaking your fingers in harsh chemical solutions and picking at them, reward them with a gentle moisturizer. Sleep with cotton socks or moisture mitts for the maximum treatment.

Skin Care Mistakes

Posted by oreo | Beauty, Cosmetics, Health, Lifestyle | Friday 13 August 2010 12:05 am

Everybody wants a healthy and glowing complexion, and in trying to attain the perfect complexion many of us make blunders in our skin care regime, which can do more harm than good to our skin. Discussed are a few common mistakes that we make when it comes to taking care of our complexion.

face-soap-1Using soap/harsh cleanser
Using soap to cleanse the skin is a common mistake that most of us do. Soap and other harsh foaming cleansers strip the face off the natural oils and moisture leaving the complexion looking dull, dry and lifeless. Soaps may also contain harsh fragrances and strong astringents which can cause irreparable damage to the skin.
Dermatologists recommend a gentle, non-foaming, fragrance free cleanser which gently cleanses your skin, without damaging it.

 

 

article-1250043-08360F49000005DC-81_468x286Sleeping with Makeup at night
Not removing makeup before going to sleep at night is a recipe for a skin disaster as the harmful ingredients and chemicals in makeup if left over-night can irritate and harm your complexion. It can also clog your pores and trap oil and dirt, leading to acne break-outs and other skin reactions. Hence, it is imperative that you remove your makeup with a gentle cleanser before going to bed.

 

 

DrySkinonFaceOver-Exfoliating
Exfoliation can strip off dead cells from the skin and lend a healthy glow if done correctly and in moderation. Over-exfoliating can leave the skin dull and dry, especially in winters and in people with dry skin. Exfoliating once in 10 days with natural exfoliants such as oatmeal, crushed almonds, etc works best for all skin types.

 

 

 

homemade-sunblockNot Using Sun-block lotions/creams
The sun’s harsh rays are the number one culprit when it comes to damaging skin. The harsh UV rays of the sun can lead to pre-mature ageing, cause wrinkles and pigmentation and lead to serious conditions such as skin cancer. Hence it is essential to use a sun-block cream with a suitable SPF to counter the harmful effects of the sun.

 

 

 

healthy-eating-habits-300x300Wrong Lifestyle/ Eating Habits
A healthy lifestyle is essential in maintaining a radiant complexion. Smoking and drinking can cause irreparable damage to the skin and cause it to age pre-maturely. Not consuming enough water can also lead to dull and dry complexion. So, a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet can go a long way in keeping the skin glowing and radiant.

Tips For Getting A Bikini Wax

Posted by oreo | Beauty, Cosmetics, Fashion, Models, Summer trend, Travel, Trends, Underwear | Thursday 5 August 2010 7:00 am

If you are getting a bikini wax for the first time, you may be a little nervous. Getting the answers to common bikini wax questions can relieve your anxiety and help you know what to expect.

What Is a Bikini Wax?
istock_000003351077_lA bikini wax is the process of using hot or cold wax to remove the hair from your bikini area, which is everywhere that is covered by your swimsuit bottom or panties. That includes the hair on both your front side and your backside, leaving you with smooth, hairless skin underneath your panties.

There are three types of bikini waxes: hot, warm or cold wax. Hot wax tends to be the preferred method, especially if you have your bikini wax done in a salon. The heat from the hot wax helps open the hair follicle and soften the surrounding skin, so the hair lets loose and is easier to remove. Cold waxing is preferred by women who are particularly sensitive, and it can be a good idea if you are doing a bikini wax at home. Warm wax is a happy medium; it works better than cold wax, but isn’t as hot as a hot wax. Cold wax techniques sometimes bypass the use of a cloth strip. Instead, you peel up a corner of the wax and just pull.

There is another option known as “sugaring” that doesn’t use a wax, but a sticky sugary substance that has honey, molasses, sugar and other organic ingredients. It makes for an easy cleanup and the results are equal to waxing.

When you use the hot wax method, the wax (usually paraffin or beeswax) is heated and then applied to the area where you want to remove the hair. Next, a piece of cloth, often muslin, is applied on top of the wax and firmly pressed down. This allows the wax to spread evenly across the area and surround each hair. After the wax has cooled, the cloth strip is removed in a quick, smooth yank, and the hair comes off with the wax.

Home or Salon? phpThumb_generated_thumbnailjpg
You can purchase at-home wax removal kits and do your own bikini wax. Remember to follow the directions to the letter. It is also a good idea to consider a cold wax for an at-home bikini wax to avoid burns.

However, it is usually recommended that you get your first wax at a salon. A technician can also ask you questions about your skin type and can figure out the most effective procedure for you.

The cost of a bikini wax will vary, but expect it to run between $25 and $100. Yes, this is a huge price variation, but it really depends on where you live and what type of salon you visit. If you choose to buy an at-home kit, you will probably spend about $15 to $25 for a one-use kit and upwards of $75 for a professional wax pot with everything you need for several waxes.

One huge advantage that waxing has over shaving or hair removal creams is that waxing will keep you hair-free for four to six weeks, rather than just a few days. Shaving and creams simply remove hair at the surface, but waxing removes the entire hair, including the root.

How to Prepare For Your First Bikini Wax
Yes, a bikini wax is going to hurt, there’s really no getting around that. Most women say the pain is just temporary and the results are well worth it. You can have the best possible experience with the following tips:

- Exfoliate your bikini area the night before your wax. This will remove any dead skin cells and allow the wax to stick the best.

- Don’t get a bikini wax three or four days before or after your period. You are the most sensitive during these times, so the pain may be increased.

- Take an over-the-counter painkiller like ibuprofen or acetaminophen about 20 minutes before your appointment to head off some of the pain.

- Relax! The more nervous you are, the more you will tense up, and this is not going to make things any easier. Just breathe deeply and relax. Take a deep breath in when the wax is applied, and then breathe out when the strip is pulled.

- Your hair needs to be about 1/4″ long so the wax can grab it. If you have been shaving or using a hair removal cream, you will need to let the hair grow a bit before you get your bikini wax.

- Don’t wear tight jeans or panties. After your bikini wax, you don’t want to wear anything too constricting, as your bikini area is going to be sensitive. Avoiding tight clothing for a day or so can help you avoid ingrown hairs as well.

- Be sure to shower before your bikini wax, but not immediately before. You want to be clean, but, if you are still damp, the wax won’t be as effective.

- If you begin your bikini wax and truly decide that you can’t go through with it, just speak up. It’s your body, and, if you change your mind, that’s OK. Keep in mind that your first bikini wax will be the most uncomfortable. After that, the hair grows back in finer and thinner, and future waxing is easier.

Some Facts to Know About Cosmetics

Posted by oreo | Beauty, Cosmetics, Health, Lifestyle | Thursday 29 July 2010 4:28 am

Cosmetics are not merely to boost your appearance with blushes or mascara, as they are also designed to protect your face from sun, so that your skin is also protected.

Cosmetic_by_ionyka

These days cosmetics have become common like we use deodorants or perfumes.

Cosmeceutical Products
Most of skincare products are classified under cosmetics or drugs. Drugs alter the structure and functions of skin, while a cosmetic merely changes appearances. Thus the word, cosmecutical refers to products that have components which affect the skin biologically, but at the same time they are not drugs. In other words, these applications cannot improve the functions of your skin, but they can improve the appearance.

Natural Products can be allergic
Don’t think that when a product has natural substances, it would not irritate you. Products having Rosemary Lavender, Tea Tree Oil or Chamomile can trigger allergic reactions. Therefore, before you use a new application, try a small patch first to ensure it is safe for your skin type.

Precautions

When you are trying to sample the make up, ensure that you apply it with a disposable applicator to avoid contamination from germs. For this very reason, you must not share friends’ makeup materials, either.

How Natural Are Natural ingredients?
Though you see labels on the products suggesting that they are “natural´, most of these are synthesized products and are not really extracted from nature. As such, they can still cause allergy to the skin. In a similar manner, the claim that the product is a perfume free product may have perfumes which block chemical smells, but are labeled as preservatives. Only petroleum jelly which is applied topically does not require preservatives.1248524959

Your skin is a precious organ. You have to diligently take care of it because it is always exposed to dirt and pollutants. Since skin determines your appearance, ensure that you protect its structure, its texture and that it does not develop premature aging signs.

Even though you may claim that you are using only natural products in the cosmetics, there is every chance of them being either contaminated, or being made of chemical substances. You should therefore ensure the purity of the topical applications on the one hand and see that your skin is protected against the vagaries of weather.

The Right Color Cosmetics To Match Your Skin Tone

Posted by oreo | Beauty, Cosmetics, Fashion, Trends, street fashion | Tuesday 6 July 2010 3:15 am

making upMakeup is about accentuating your best features while hiding your flaws. Selection of wrong shades of cosmetics which are a mismatch to your skin tone makes your make-up look cakey and artificial.

Selecting the right color tones that match your complexion is the key to getting your make-up perfect. Remember the tips discussed below the next time you head to buy your make-up cosmetics.

The first step before you actually select make-up cosmetics is to recognize your skin tone rightly. Though all of us have different color tones, an easy way to figure your complexion tone is to wear a white shirt and then try a beige one.

If the white shirt looked better on you, then you have a ‘cool’ complexion tone, while if the beige shirt was more flattering, you have a ‘warm’ complexion.

Complexion colors can also be divided into: pale white, fair, rosy pink, olive and dark skin. Depending on your ethnicity you could have any of the complexion tones mentioned here. Once you have rightly identified your complexion tone, you can confidently select the right shades for your make-up.

Foundation

Foundation is the base for your make-up and requires careful selection. If you have a cool complexion tone which essentially covers fair, translucent, or rosy pink complexion tones, go for contrasting shades of foundation that have a pink, blue, or silver undertone to it.

Use a foundation with a yellow hue for warm complexion colors such as olive, deep and dark skin. Remember your foundation should completely match your skin tone and look natural.

Blush

Blush is the next step after your foundation base is ready. Fair skin tones are more suited to pink and tawny hues. Dark complexions look great with a tinge of plum or deep bronze blush. For yellow to olive skin, shades of copper and dark brown look best. Remember the key to selecting the right blush is to use softer shades for fair skin while bolder colors look best on warm and dark complexion.

Lipstick

Remember to always test the lipstick shade on a white paper to know its actual shade. Colors such as pink and red look great on people who have a naturally rosy complexion.

Shades of pink and mauve are for those who have a fair or pale complexion. Shades of brown, purple and warm red are suitable for women with warm or dark complexion tones.

How to Create Sexy and Mysterious Smoky Eyes

Posted by oreo | Beauty, Cosmetics, Party, Trends | Thursday 17 June 2010 6:27 am

Smoky eyes are known as seductive, sexy and mysterious eyes. You can beautiful-smoky-eyesget the perfect kind of smoky eyes if your layering is perfect; it should be blended and soft.

Though it is easy to get smoky eyes, you have to work on the details and have patience to achieve the correct effect of the colors. Usually a heavy dark charcoal color results in smoky eyes, but there are also hues of blue or purple to make your eyes look sexy.

Given below are some tips to create such a sultry pair of eyes.

With a pencil, you can line top and bottom rims, going closer to lash line. If you have small eyes, the liner should be applied from middle portion under your eyes to the outside of your eyes. For larger ones, you can freely use the liner from one side to the other. If you are using a liner which is liquid type, place dots over the lash-line and try to follow them to get a correct straight-line.

You can apply a light shade with a large eye-shadow brush so that the whole area is encircled. Thereafter you can apply mascara. With a fluffy sponge, brush away the shadow which might have landed on the lashes or beneath your eyes.

Now line the lips with color that is natural to get a smoky look and if you add some color like caramel or peach along with a natural blush, the seductress is ready.

Two or three mascara coats will give you a dramatic appearance. When you pull the eye liner from top while lining the bottom lashes, your eyes will look larger. For fair colored women, soft colors in grey and brown would suit. When you color blue shades or greens, you can get a modern look.

Do not apply smoky eye makeup in the morning. It is best for night parties. If you did not sleep properly, a smoky look can worsen your eyes. To get a bold look, lips should be lined with dark liners and filled with colors that are deep.

The recipe for dry skin care

Posted by oreo | Beauty, Cosmetics, Health | Thursday 17 June 2010 6:12 am

skin-care1Dry skin cannot be ignored. Dry skin leads to cracking of the upper layer of skin and gives it a real bad appearance. The main causes of dry skin include: dry climate, hormonal changes, too much exfoliation and treatment of other skin disorders. Moreover, dryness could be the inherent nature of one’s skin. Whatever be the cause, ‘dry skin care’ is very important (but not very difficult).

‘Dry skin care’ starts with moisturisers, the most effective remedy for dry skin. Generally moisturisers are classified under 2 categories based on the way they provide ‘dry skin care’.

The first category includes moisturisers that provide ‘dry skin care’ just by preserving the moisture within the skin e.g. Vaseline. These moisturisers are relatively inexpensive and are readily available (even at grocery shops).

The second category includes moisturisers that work by drawing moisture from the environment and supplying it to the skin. This is a very effective way of ‘dry skin care’ in humid conditions. The moisturisers that provide ‘dry skin care’ in this way are also called humectants. For proper dry skin care, you must use a non-greasy type of moisturiser, as far as possible. Humectants fall in this category. The ingredients of humectants include propylene glycol, urea, glycerine, hyaluronic acid etc

‘Dry skin care’ is not about just using moisturisers but also using them properly. The best ‘dry skin care procedure’ is to cleanse the skin before the application of moisturiser. You can make your ‘dry skin care’ even more effective by applying the moisturiser while the skin is still damp (after cleansing). Also, make sure that you use soap-free products (especially on your face, neck and arms). Exfoliation does help in dry skin care, by removing the dead skin cells. However, don’t exfoliate too hard. Your dry skin care procedures/products should also take care of sun protection. Avoid too much and too direct exposure to sun (simply by using an umbrella/hat etc). Use a good sunscreen lotion before going out. A lot of moisturisers provide sun protection too, along with dry skin care.

You also have natural products for ‘dry skin care’ i.e. products that provide ‘dry skin care’ in a natural way (without the use of synthetic chemicals). These dry skin care products supply lipid enhancements to the skin, hence enabling moisture retention within the skin. Another, important thing for ‘dry skin care’ is the temperature of water you use for shower or for washing your face – Use warm water; too hot or too cold water can cause dryness too.

‘Dry skin care’ is also about being gentle with your skin. You should avoid harsh detergents and alcohol based cleansers. Also, after a face wash, do not rub your towel on your face, just pat gently to soak the water off.

On the whole, dry skin care is really simple for anyone who takes that seriously.
