Hello Beauties,I Have An Amazing Natural Remedy To Grow Your Eyelashes That Will Make The Look Full-er,Thick-er and Long-er.All The Stuff I've Used Can Be Purchased From The Local Beauty Supplies Store Or From Chemist Near By.This Product Will Last Upto An Year(even more but fresher the better) Provided The Ingridients You Use Are Within Their Consumption Period.So Here's It.....**This recepie is made out of mixing different readymade stuff which have their individual properties.**It worked for me and many others around me but do not promise have a same effect on you.**If irritation occurs stop using the product.


So Here Are The Supplies And Steps To Make It


1/2 Teaspoon Castor Oil






Why Castor Oil?
Castor oil is a fatty vegetable oil full of Omega 6 fatty acids, vitamin E and proteins.  Because of its smooth and mild texture, it’s easily absorbed into the hairshaft and locks in nutrients.  Castor oil been used for centuries for hair growth – in fact, ancient Egyptian men used to rub it into their scalps to prevent baldness!
*Funny fact: Parents used to give children small doses of castor oil as a natural laxative.  In some drugstores, you might still have to wander to the digestive aid aisle to find it!
Castor oil will help your eyelashes to grow thick and long, and can keep them from breaking. It can also help you grow new eyebrow hair in bare areas that might've been over-tweezed.


1/2 Teaspoon Vitamin E Oil




Either Vitamin E oil Or Vitamin E Capsules Both Will Work, Howvwer It Should Be 1/2 Teaspoon

Why Vitamin E Oil?
This powerful antioxidant can also have an amazing moisturizing effects on your lashes.


1 Teaspoon Aloevera Gel


Why Aloevera Gel?
Due to aloe’s high water content (over 99% water) it is a great way to hydrate, moisturize and rejuvenate the skin and hair around the eye area. Aloe increases the elasticity of the skin making it more flexible through collagen and elastin repair. Aloe is an emollient, helping to soften and soothe the skin and hair. It helps supply oxygen to the cells, increasing the strength and synthesis of skin tissue and induces improved blood flow to the skin through capillary dilation and promoting hair growth at the same time.

1 Teaspoon Petroleum Jelly


Why Petroleum Jelly?
Most petroleum jelly today is used as an ingredient in skin lotions and cosmetics, providing various types of skin care and protection by minimizing friction or reducing moisture loss, or by functioning as a grooming aid.
Moisture Loss
By reducing moisture loss, petroleum jelly can prevent chapped hands and lips, and soften nail cuticles.
This property is exploited to provide heat insulation: petroleum jelly can be used to keep swimmers warm in water when training or during channel crossings or long ocean swims. It can prevent chilling of the face due to evaporation of skin moisture during cold weather outdoor sports.
Hair grooming
In the first part of the twentieth century, petroleum jelly, either pure or as an ingredient, was also popular as a hair pomade. When used in a 50/50 mixture with pure beeswax, it makes an effectivemoustache wax. It is used as a key ingredient for conditioners of Afro-textured hair.
Lubrication
Petroleum jelly can be used to reduce the friction between skin and clothing during various sport activities, for example to prevent chafing of the seat region of cyclists, the nipples of long distance runners wearing loose t-shirts, and is commonly used in the crotch area of wrestlers and footballers.
Petroleum jelly is commonly used as a personal lubricant, although it is not recommended for use with condoms during human sexual activity because it dissolves latex and thus increases the chance of rupture.


Mix All These In A Container In The Specified Quantity Using A Clean Toothpick Or A Spoolie Brush And You'll Get Something Like This




APPLICATION OF EYE LASH SERUM

There are few precautions one has to take while applying an eyelash serum.
These are:
Apply the serum using an eyelash grooming brush or a spoolie over the upper lash line(in contact with the skin) while closing your eyes. And when applying to the lashes apply like a mascara BUT not touching the waterline or eyeball and just brushing the hair. Do not take a lot of it as it can drip in eyes and caouse iritation.

REPEAT THE STEPS WITH LOWER LASHES TOO(In the same way)

APPLY THE SERUM ONLY ON UPPER LASHLINE and LOWER LASHLINE IF GOING TO SLEEP OR APPLY TO BOTH 30-40 MINUTES PRIOR TO SLEEPING.

IF HAVE APPLIED TO HAIR TOUCHING EYEBALL AND GOING TO SLEEP REMEMBER TO REMOVE WITH A WT WIPE OR AN EYE MAKEUP REMOVER BEFORE SLEEPING


APPLY THE SERUM ATLEAST 3-4 TIMES A WEEK TO GET THOSE THICK AND LONG LASHES :)

Summer/Monsoon SkinCare And Makeup Essentials

Hello Beauties,
Yet Another Interesting Post For Your Hygine And A Helpful Change In Your Routine.
It might be not-so-something-new for some people, but am sure it might help a lot to those who are looking for products which help them to cope up with heat, humidity, break-outs and wishing to have a healthy and flawless skin :D
So here the tips,tricks and products which might work for you.

*None of the companies sponsored me to do so.
*All are my personal opinions.
*Am not paid for it.
*All this works great for me,not necessary it will work the same for you.
*These are just recommendations, up to you to follow or not.\
*All the products are available in India, those which are not I will mention about them.

Happy Monsoooooooooon Beauties !!!!!!

1. The first and foremost remedy for everything to be cured NATURALLY is WATER. this fact is often ignored by many,but it can sometimes be a sole solution to most of the problems. So keep yourself hydrated to avoid:
  • DEHYDRATION
  • DANDRUFF
  • SPOTS
  • BREAKOUTS
  • UNCLEAR STOMACH
You never know it might help to lose weight even ;)



2.Second Most Important Thing Is To Take Care Of Your Skin.Here are some Recommendations which might help you:


FaceWash And Scrubbing

Its is very important to wash your face and scrub them on and off to get rid of tan,dirt,blackheads/whiteheads, deadskin.
Our skin gets damaged because of lot of things-UVA and UVB rays, Smoke, Pollution. Dirt, germs, humidity, heat, chemicals,etc. present.
Its very important to wash your face.


This product can do wonders. It comes with a patterned rubber whichh accelerates the effect of scrub and helps to deep clean.
Rs.399/178ml

TONING

Since scrubbing can open pores and make them more prone to accumulate dust and convert them to blackheads and whiteheads.
This product will helpyou to close those tiny pores. Also its anti-acne treatment will help to prevent you from breaking out against humidity,heat,dust or even from trying new products.
Rs.290/100ml

MOISTURIZING

Even if you keep yourself hydrated its also very important to provide hydration to your skin directly. One must use a moisturizer which contains spf.Personally being a combination to oily skin at times I use a hrdrating gel to keep me hydrated and the apply my suscreen or use makeup which contains spf.

This hydrating gel by L'oreal gives me a matt andanti shine finish and at the same time moisturizes it without feeling dry at all.
Rs.499/50gm

3. Some Functional Makeup Tips And Ideas


FOUNDATION/MAKEUP BASE/BB CREAM/ CC CREAM


Personally I dont recommend using foundations or heavy makeup bases on a daily bases especially in summers and monsoons. For a natural finish I would recommend those bb creams and cc creams available in market. Personally I am a fan of pond's bb cream. It gives a concealer like coverage without feeling heavy or sticky. It is not greasy. Also I dont have to use concealer under my eyes after using this.
Pond's BB Cream: Rs.125/18gm

EYES

Attractive eyes have their own charm. To make them more attractive I recommend using an eye brightener or under eye concealer that matches your skin tone, a smudge proof kohl will not only define your eyes but also make them look fresh all day long.You can even add a pop of colour especially in summers and monsoon to match the colour or contrast with the colour of your outfit so that they stand out. And remember no eye make is complete without a mascara. So switch to waterproof mascaras which give your lashes great volume.

**Since eyes are really ver sensitive,always remove your eye makeup using cleanser,makeupremover, facewash or makeup removing wipes before sleeping**

No makeup look can go wrong with a Black smudge proof kohl. This one is my favourite by lakme.
Rs.199

If you like to play with colours use these coloured eye pencils to use as kohl or defining your lashlines.
Recommended Brands:
Rimmel London(available at slassy.com)
Colorbar(One of my favourites)
Revlon(Amazing Pigmentation, sadly am allergic to revlon eye products)
Lakme(Nice colours with sheen)
Maybelline(Haves an amazing smoky grey colour)


If an eyeshadow freak,use Maybelline 24hours colour tattoos. They wont smudge,stay all day long,do not crease, have amazing colour range, can be used as gel liners as well as eyeshadows.
Rs.350


This is my current favourite from colorbar.This waterproof mascara gives a dramatic definition to my lashes by voluminizing and also lengthening them at the same time.
Rs.650

CHEEKS

A healthy glow will make your skin look fresh and young. I would recommend light peach or light pink blush. Also a cream blush will have a longer staying power.
Sleek Blush Palette in Lace-www.sleekmakeup.com
Elf Blush in Pink Passion-www.beautyjoint.com
Maybelline cream blush in 04

LIPS

Apply something which will give light colour along with hydration.
Recommendations:
Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stains: Rs.600
Revlon Lip Butters:Rs.600
Lakme Pop Tints:Rs.800
Colorbar Take Me As I Am Lipcolours:Rs.699


4.Sun Protection


SUSNCREEN

Even though sun is there or not UVA and UVB rays are always there. I recommend a matt sunscreen as it will not make you feel heavy, greasy, oily, sticky in either heat or humidity.
I use this lotus sunblock to protect me.

5.Hands and Feet Hygine


HANDS AND FEET

Its important to get rid of tan and dead skin in your hands and feet. Obviously regular Padicures and Manicures might become a difficult,time consuming and ofcourse an expensive task. Dont worry I found these kits by FACES CANADA for at home Manicures and Pedicures..

Pedicure Kit:Rs.219
Manicure Kit:Rs.169

Also on and off scrub your feet and hands if cannot do at home treatments,clean nails regularly, often remove nailpaints to let your nails breathe too, and most important moisturize every day and night.


So Beauties try making some changes or adding some to your routine for a healthy skin, confident mind and beautiful you. :D
