             To Get Rid Of  Dandruff:- Take a bowl of curd and leave it open for 3 days. After 3 days apply all over scalp and leave it on for 20 mins. Repeat this treatment for 2-3 days continuously for favorable results.

                      Hi Babes, following the skincare tips today i will write about 10 Ways to beat wrinkles. Wrinkles can add years to your face. The market is flooded with tons of anti-wrinkle products but I personally believe that prevention is better than cure. Read on for the simple yet effective tips.


1. Protect your skin from the sun. Sun rays help form wrinkles. Before going out in the sun apply a layer of sunscreen on face and neck and gently spread with soft strokes using a brush or sponge. In all weather, every season, at all times wear a sunscreen before an outing.


2. Stop smoking. The skin around the mouth is prone to laugh lines and wrinkles. Smoking will speed up the process, so quit smoking if you want to stay young.


3. Deep cleanse the skin. Apply cleanser on your face and neck in dots and spread all over, massage gently. Keep on for a few minutes and remove with a damp cotton ball. Remember to wash your hands clean before massaging.


4. Deep moisturizing is the next step. Apply a rich moisturizer on dots all over your face and neck, use a brush or fingertips to spread on damp skin. Massage with gentle upward and outward stokes. Leave on for 5 to 10 mins and remove excess with a damp cotton ball. Instead of moisturizer any nourishing cream can be used. 


5. Boost the circulation of your skin. Take a coin sized amount of face wash and add a little water to it. Smear it all over your face and neck. Now lather it with a gentle face brush or simply use a gent's shaving brush, exfoliate with soft hands. Alternately, use a facial scrub once a week for that healthy rosy glow. Take a little scrub and gently massage it onto your damp face and neck. Wash off and pat dry. 


6. Pamper regularly. Facials are your best bet to pamper your skin, get it done regularly or do it yourself at home. Every week apply a suitable face pack on face and neck. 


7. Be weather vain. In hot weather use light products and in cold weather use rich and heavy preparations. 


8. Be gentle. While applying anything on your face be it soap, lotion, pack, scrub etc be very very gentle. Being rough with your skin can cause severe damage. 


9. Disguise the already formed lines on your face. Cover up with a white or yellow concealer. Apply using a brush under eye-area and around mouth-area. Blend well.


10. Clever makeup. Apply foundation after properly priming your face, primer hides wrinkles to some extent. Top it off with a light translucent power using a fluffy brush.



Hope these tips help you to beat those ugly wrinkles. Organic anti-wrinkle recipes in the next post... Till then byeeeee

        

























              Hi Babes, after caring for your nails its high time you get a few skin care tips. Mostly blogs and sites tell you the dos but today I will tell you ten don'ts for super skin.

1. Don't be grumpy. Start the day with a smile, look at the mirror and give a big smile to yourself. Anger, tension, depression, making faces etc spoils beauty. 

2. Don't sleep with makeup on your skin. If you do that your skin will become dull and lifeless, pimples and blackheads will follow. Properly clean your skin before heading to bed. 

3. Don't go after junk food. Avoid cakes, pastries, chips, spicy food and cold drinks all together. Eat fresh veggies and fruits. 

4. Don't imitate others. Just because your friend like a particular lotion/cream don't go out to buy it. Because it may have worked for her but it might not work for your skin in the same way. So consider your skin type before buying it, try it out at the cosmetic counter if possible. If the lotion/cream suits your skin and fulfills your requirements then buy it.

5. Avoid exposing your skin to the sun-rays. Use a good quality sunscreen cream/lotion on all exposed parts before going out in the sun. Wrap a scarf to protect your hair and also wear shades to protect your peepers.

6. Don't tug your skin. Don't stretch or pull it. Don't press black and whiteheads, it may injure and damage your skin. Always be gentle.

7. Avoid short cuts. First cleanse your skin, wash it. Secondly use a toner to close pores and finally moisturize your skin. Keep aside 10 minutes each in the morning and at night for yourself.

8. Avoid wrong massage strokes as it will do more harm than good. You may get get wrinkles and the skin structure may be destroyed. Most people use a massage cream to moisten the skin for massage, the best thing will be to apply it with upward-outward strokes. Correct application will help in massaging.

9. Don't talk when you have a face mask on. You may get wrinkles and fine lines to start off. It also affects the elasticity of skin.

10. Don't wash your face with hot water not even in winters. Use tepid water, neither hot nor cold. Always remember your skin is very soft and you need to pamper it as much as you can.



Now this is all I have for now. And Babes if you can come out with any more Don'ts please share with me. Bye for now :)
