The kiss of summer bestows nature's shining secret to your face as long as you do not let it dry your skin and cause those tiny summer wrinkles to appear. Try some of the suggestions given below to revive and to sustain the natural beauty of your complexion and to add that cool, clear appearance, which is the main asset of a summer complexion.

During the hot summer months your complexion needs extra care at night in order to counteract the drying effects of the sun and the wind during the day. Particularly, if you are above 25 you should regularly use a moisturizing cream at bedtime. Apply this cream daily in the night if you want to cherish the youthful loveliness of a flawless complexion.

To make your own moisturizing cream take four almonds and soak them in enough milk to cover them. Let them remain thus for a whole night, next morning peel and grind them to a smooth paste. Now mix in two tablespoons of milk cream and a few drops of essence of rose. Store in a bottle and keep it in the fridge.

As the temperature rises in the hot months, extra cleaning is necessary for those of you who have greasy complexion. Bathe your face four to five times daily with clear water and a good soap suited to your complexion. This will help cleanse the openings of grease glands and loosen excess secretion. Rinse off every trace of soap with plenty of hot, then cold water. Cold water constricts the pores and minimizes the entrance of dust and dirt into the oil glands. Now splash an astringent lotion on the face. In a bowl of chilled water squeeze in a juice of a sour lime. Pat dry. Remember to cleanse the skin thoroughly with milk cream blended into a thin paste with gram flour. Steam the face once every week in order to open clogged pores.
Another big problem of summer is excessive perspiration and body odour. Excessive perspiration usually occurs on the palms, soles, under the breast, forehead and scalp. It is often accompanied by offensive body odour which is largely due to the decomposition of sweat and contamination with micro-organisms. Under unclean circumstances, micro-organisms flourish giving rise to unsightly boils. Therefore, if you suffer from foulsmelling perspiration, you should pay special attention to your personal cleanliness. You should take bath twice daily with soap and plenty of water. Certain areas of the body (where perspiration is excessive) should be dusted liberally with boric powder mixed with an equal quantity of a good-scented talcum powder. If your feet perspire profusely then use salicylic powder on them or you can soak them for 15 minutes in a dilute solution of potassium permanganate in order to prevent infection and minimise 'body odour. Refrain from wearing nylon or woollen socks. Wear cotton socks and shoes which have no rubber soles on them. To check pespiration of the hands wash them well, dry them, then rub them with a few drops of witch-hazel.

Infants and toddlers should be bathed in the afternoon in water to which a few drops of Cologne have been added. Dust their bodies libearlly with equal quantity of scented powder and boric powder. For top-to-toe freshness pay proper attention to your hair. It is important that you should wash your hair at least twice a week. Freshen your hair in between by sprinkling some eau de Cologne before setti ng them. Revive tired eyes by wrapping crushed pieces of ice in a piece of cloth and applying it to closed eyelids. Then relax for 10 minutes in a dark room. You can use cucumber slices instead of ice cubes.
Ensure that feeling of freshness by keeping yourself and all your personal belongings, scrupulously clean. Your dresses and other clothes should be starched and well-pressed for a neat appearance. Keep pads soaked in cologne between your clothes and they will exude a lovely fragrance. When ironing your clothes, place a pad of cotton soaked- in either Cologne rose water or your favourite perfume by your side and run the pad on your clothes before ironing. Your pleasantly fragant clothes will make you feel cool and garden-fresh. Do away with all your nylons, georgettes and heavy silks and bring out the soft wispy chanderies, cool violes, crisp organdies and light cotton dresses in the softest of shades. Avoid wearing too many accessories.
During this season your makeup should be reduced to the minimum and the accent should be on naturalness. Avoid using foundation creams and lotions of any sort because heat may cause them 'running down' your face. Use a lipstick of pastel shade and use rouge sparingly. Finish your makeup with a light puff of powder.

Be extravagant with flowers. Use plenty of them in your hair. You can also tuck a few flowers of mogra in your bra for their heavenly smell. Spray on your favourite perfume and now if you go out you will feel as pleasantly fresh and cool as though you were atop a hill station in the summer season.

Other reasons for dryness in hair is the excessive use of heat treatments like use of straightening irons, curling irons, hair dryers and other heating tools. Fine and soft hair is more damaged by the heating treatments.

Excessive use of chemicals on hairs is also a cause of split ends. Especially, when protective measures are not taken care of with use of chemicals. Natural moisture and protective coating of hair is removed by use of chemicals like strengtheners, chemical relaxers, dyes and other products and this increase the chance of getting splits.

Other reasons are simple to avoid like vigorous brushing of hair, especially towards scalp and physical stress. Tying hair in tight braids or using metal and rubber accessories are also some causes for split ends.

How To Remove Split Ends: Once you get split ends, you can remove them only by regular hair trimming. There are some conditioning products, which claim to cure split ends, but what they actually do is temporarily bind the hair together. Trimming of hair is the last resort and after trimming hair grow naturally as before. When you are trimming, make sure to cut hair up to half an inch to avoid the upward splitting of hair. Trimming should be done regularly every 4 to 6 weeks.

For trimming the split ends, take a pair of scissors and take a small section of hairs. Now twist hair gently downwards. Split ends stick out of the twisted hair. Now cut these carefully. Repeat this procedure for all the hair.

Avoid foundation, especially if you have acne. Foundation will only worsen the situation. Use concealers.

acne

If you have acne then don’t even think to take care of it on your own – go to dermatologist.

Try everything before you are about to buy it.

sunscreen

Never skip a sunscreen – this particular cream takes care of your skin, apply it even if is rather cloudy outside.

line

Don’t line the inside on your eye – it will look unnatural and make your eyes smaller than they actually are.
Good luck!

2 in 1 Shampoos - Do They Really Work?

2010-06-04T20:15:00.000-07:00

Question: Do 2-in-1 Shampoos & Conditioners Work?

Answer: They do for those of us with normal, healthy hair. But if you have oily hair, you don’t need the added conditioning and if you have dry hair, the moisturizing agents in these 2-in-1 products are not enough. You need to use a separate, creamy (rather than clear) conditioner.

Fix Flat and Frizzy Hair This Summer

2010-06-03T08:13:00.000-07:00

Every summer, you may notice your hair grows limp. Perhaps it becomes ultra-frizzy or your color seems to get brassy. You're suffering from the typical woes of summer. Fortunately, there are a ton of products on the market created to combat bad summer hair. Here are a few our favorite tips to fix flat and frizzy hair in summer:

Flat head Humidity can take a toll on fine hair in summer causing your hair to wilt. Instead of piling on the product, we suggest:
1. Pulling hair back in a loose bun on the nape of your neck or if your hair isn't long enough, pulling it into a cute little ponytail.
2. Get highlights. Keep in mind that coloring hair causes the strands to plump up. Lightening hair in summer actually adds body. We suggest a few highlights around the face.
3. Invest in the right products. For just-at-the-beach waves, spritz on a great salt spray then scrunch hair (or make your own with sea salts and water). For even more body, sprinkle a dry shampoo (or baby powder if you're blonde) at the crown and roots. It soaks up moisture.

The frizzies Dry hair sops up the moisture and can cause frizzies. Here are some tips to fix them:
1. Keep hair moisturized with a deep conditioning once a week.
2. Let washed hair air dry. Blowdrying only causes more frizz.
3. To tame frizzies, you'll need the right products. Invest in a straightening balm, shine serum and gel to keep hair moisturized.
4. Hide the frizz with a loose bun, gorgeous!

Sun or chlorine-damaged hair The sun, chlorine and salt water can wreck havoc on your hair color. Here's how to fix:
1. Wear a hat or bandana (ala Angelina Jolie) in the sun.
2. Invest in sunscreen shampoos and products. There are a ton of new ones on the market, at all prices.
3. Before swimming, rinse hair with tap water. This will cut down on salt and chlorine absorption, according to US Weekly magazine (July 24, 2006).

What Causes Split Ends?

2010-06-02T08:12:00.000-07:00

Question: What Causes Split Ends?

Answer: Split ends are caused by damage done by:

blowdryers
curling irons
straightening irons
hair coloring products

You can keep split ends in check with proper hair maintenance: Trim, trim, trim. What you don't want to happen is have your hair split all the way up the shaft, rendering that hair ruined. To keep hair conditioned in the meantime, you'll need to deep condition once a week.

Tame split ends with a styling cream and if it's really time for a haircut, pulling hair back in a loose bun (my favorite trick) will hide all those nasty ends.

How to Be a Girly Girl

How to Be a Girly Girl

from wikiHow - The How to Manual That You Can Edit

Become a girly girl or a trendy girl! Change pants into a skirt, Change a shirt into a cute shirt! Turn shoes into heels! Turn a ponytail into a Bun! Change anything you want by just following the steps!

Steps

Substitute clumsiness and jerky movements with graceful and fluid actions. You'll feel like a fake if you just clump along while walking. True "girly girls" sort of look like they're floating.
Buy clothing that always fits and gives you a waist.
Have a sense of style. Being in fashion is a must. Try to read more fashion magazines to learn what kinds of clothing go well together and how to put together a classy outfit. Be sure to create your own fashion and have your own style, because it's not right to wear something that just isn't you. It's often better to have a basic personal style than to always be chasing the latest "fad" look.
Take care of your skin. Skin should be well cared for and clear of imperfections. Wash your face everyday and remember to wear sunscreen or shade hats. Try to give yourself a mask facial once a week.
Remember: makeup usually makes you look polished. Lip gloss and mascara is perfect for everyday wear. You can also wear cheek tints and eye shadow, if you want. Foundation makes your skin look flawless, but too much can look fake. If you can't use makeup, don't worry, your face is already pretty. Use perfume like ones that smell like say tangerine, strawberry, coconut, etc. If you can't use perfume, at least use nice smelling deodorant.
Groom yourself every day. A good grooming routine everyday, is taking a shower, and shaving. Brush your teeth twice and floss at least once a day. Apply body lotion. The last step is perfume. Pick a custom scent for yourself to be your trademark.
Have good hygiene. Remember to always be clean: run a comb through your hair, keep your nails dirt-free and neat, brush your teeth and bathe/shower. When spraying perfume, be sure to use just enough, but not too much. Excessive use of perfume isn't attractive and does not improve your hygiene, despite popular belief. Being clean is important; being grubby isn't girly and isn't ladylike. Never have greasy hair. It is gross and very trashy.
Take care of your nails as well. Treat yourself to a pedicure/manicure, and make sure to keep from biting your nails, picking at them, etc. People notice your hands more than you think, and jagged nails don't look very nice. Try to go to a nail salon to get your nails done. If you can't, just do it by yourself or with a family member. If this is your first time being a girly-girl-in-training, try not to use dark colors like black. Use girly colors like pink, purple, etc.
Look after your hair. Make sure you comb it with a wide toothed comb or a brush, wash it every day or every other day, depending on your hair type, and don't use too many hair products. Straightening your hair every day could cause serious damage, so use a heat protection spray! You can also go for soft curls. Formal (regular) buns and messy buns are cute too.
Keep in tip-top shape. Don't eat too much dessert. It would be smart to eat low-fat (or fat-free) foods. Exercise daily. However, this doesn't mean starve yourself. You don't have to be stick thin. As long as you're healthy, you're fine!
Use mostly pastel colors such as pink and baby blue. Especially pink. Purple is a very pretty color as well. However, you can still wear, red, green, black, etc. Just because you're a girly girl doesn't mean you have to wear pink or purple all the time.
Have a bright personality, bubbly and happy. Don't giggle all the time, because people will find that really annoying. Instead, make other people laugh, and be really cute. Don't take yourself too seriously. Be sweet and friendly, do not yell too much.
Get girly clothes - skirts, cute shirts, accessories, jeans, cute shorts...anything bright is good. Make an effort to look around. When you first start coming out of your "comfort" zone you won't like anything and will keep saying "no" to everything you see. Go to every store you can. You might get tired of walking around, but just looking is a big step! Go with your friends who have style or with somebody who has any style different than yours! Let them help you, but develop your own style and don't just copy theirs.
Wear jeans that fit. Don't wear low cut jeans if you don't feel comfortable, but make sure your jeans fit you and are not tight or baggy. A belt is okay, but the fit says it all. Try on lots of brands, styles, cuts, and sizes. Not every size jean will fit the same depending on the brand. The same goes with shirts. Not tight, not baggy. If your shirt is so tight you can see your bra or you have trouble getting your shirt off of your back, then it's too tight. To see if the shirt is too small, raise your arms up. If your stomach shows when you do this, then the shirt may be too small. Things like camisoles are supposed to fit tight.
Stick to nice colors, nothing to violent or something that stands out too much. Nice colors would be anything light, clean and fresh looking. Nice outfits-jeans and shirts that suit you, skirts and tank tops, that kind of thing, leggings are nice too. Pair things up with a pair of shoes that fit and go with the outfit, and maybe a simple, plain chain and bracelet. Earrings can be a little long if you want-but nothing that is too violent.
Keep your teeth nice and white. There are several ways to get the perfect dazzling smile. If your teeth are crooked, don't shy away from braces. Just think of them as jewelry for your teeth! For whitening, you can either do it yourself at home with a store-bought product (such as crest white strips) or go to a dentist that also has expertise in the area of cosmetic dentistry to get them professionally whitened.
Be romantic. Girliness is also associated with romance sometimes. Be sure to read/write romance novels and develop a keen interest in poetry. You can also make this your music style by listening to love songs.
Learn to talk well. Swearing your head off or talking really loudly in an accent people can hardly make out is most definitely unattractive, and not lady like. Talking well is quite an art. Find a good tone so that people can hear you without straining their eardrums or covering their ears. A medium tone is best. Speak very clearly. If you're talking in a strong accent, not many will understand you.
Stop swearing. It may be hard to cut out, but swearing is one of the worst things you could do if you're trying to be ladylike. Try making a deal with your friends about not swearing for a day. Just think about proving to everyone you have the will power and self control to actually control and think about what comes out of your mouth. If you're a person who swears loads, this is not a ladylike thing. Definitely say things like "shoot" and "idiot". Try not to use bad words like "crap" or "moron". They're not okay. Try to make very calm and civil comebacks, not the regular old stuff. It'll take practice, but it's a huge step towards being ladylike and girly.
1. Take care of your nails as well. Treat yourself to a pedicure/manicure, and make sure to keep from biting your nails, picking at them, etc. People notice your hands more than you think, and jagged nails don't look very nice. Try to go to a nail salon to get your nails done. If you can't, just do it by yourself or with a family member. If this is your first time being a girly-girl-in-training, try not to use dark colors like black. Use girly colors like pink, purple, etc.
Be graceful. This is a difficult step, but also a crucial one. Being graceful doesn't mean you have to hate sports and walk on tip toe. Just make sure you walk with your head up, shoulders rolled back and your back straight. Don't swagger, or swing your hips. It looks exaggerated and weird. Don't swing your arms either - keep them by your side.
Have good taste in clothing: Be modest in clothing and avoid clothing of bad taste. Extremely low necklines, too short skirts, belly-bearing tops and revealing clothing can make a girl look like she does not respect her body and herself. Shirts with inappropriate sayings, logos can make a girl look like she's desperate for attention. The posh are not desperate for attention.
Don't stuff your face with food - chew your food and don't make any noises or gulp it down. Don't take huge bites either - just normal ones. Avoid eating anything that could get messy and sticky. Don't slouch when you're sitting in a chair-press your back against it and press your feet against the floor. Avoid folding your arms too-it gives off a "Get lost" vibe, and can make you look unsure about who you are and where you stand. Try not to put your hands in your pockets too much either. Just practice keeping them by your sides. It feels awkward, but actually looks completely normal.
Hang out with gal pals. Girls love the mall, shopping, and almost anything associated with beauty. Get a group of friends and have a shopping spree, makeovers, a sleepover, a bake sale or any girl-related activity.
Keep a diary. Draw girly stuff in it, like hearts, other cartoon characters, flowers and write poems and stories and so on.
Girly girls always want to be the center of attention. So try being out there, but don't get into too much drama.
Be organized. If you are organized, you'll always be able to find the things you're looking for.And being disorganized is unladylike.
Watch shows and channels on TV, like MTV and Teen Nick. Reality shows are in with girly girls.
Always have a cute purse on your arm.
If you curl your eyelashes you don't always have to wear mascara
Always be nice and generous. Having a selfish and nasty attitude towards others will drag you very far away from being ladylike. Always have a smile on your face, and be willing to let people borrow things from you. Be nice to everyone, even people who you think are losers, because nobody is a loser and everyone is a human being. Everyone deserves a chance, so make sure you give it to them. Don't exclude people from games, gifts, or secrets, keep your promises and don't gossip. Don't be mean or hot headed-always keep your cool.
NEVER, EVER let anyone mess with you. If someone is bullying you in any matter, you do NOT put up with it. It is disgusting behavior, and you don't let ANYONE walk all over you. This is the time to unleash the nasty.
Have a few possible comments to respond with if someone is insulting you. If you cannot think of anything, the insults will come depending on the person. Always be nice to other people, unless you have something against them.
Make sure your belongings are neat. Make sure you label and cover all of your school and text books. Try just covering them with clear contact paper-it looks a lot neater. If you really like patterned contact paper, try the metallic looking ones that come in red, silver, blue and gold. Label your things and look after them to make sure they don't get lost or damaged. Buy some nice pencils and pens-a nice, fancy pen or a cute colored pencil. Make sure you always have enough of everything-constantly asking to borrow things isn't very lady like. When buying a school bag, go for light and neutral colors and posh brands-stuff that's good quality. Don't buy anything in dark colors like navy blue or black.
Concentrate in School. It's important to be looked on as intelligent at school. Try hard in every single subject and class you take, and always hand in homework ON TIME. Don't talk during class-you have loads of time for that later. Don't pass notes either-it gets very embarrassing if you're caught. Ask questions and participate in class discussions. Try to get involved with the school and its' activities, too. Reading up on background information about a topic you're studying is good too, and can actually be interesting. Help others if they're struggling, and don't suck up to your teachers.

Tips

Try not to worry what others think!
Say more hi than hey. It's more girly.
Never contemplate releasing any form of gas from your body in front of anyone under any circumstances.
Remember, wear lots of pink! Combine it with other colors, for example white, or even black. These are the colors that work best with pastels.
Sparkles are great! But don't over-do it. Sparkly lip-gloss, or hair sparkles are fine.
Keep your grades as neat as your wardrobe.
Some pretty hairstyles are french braids, loose pigtails, messy buns, and The Fishtail Braid. If you're sick of your everyday hair, get it layered or go for a cute, girly cut. Ask your hair dresser what they think would suit you.
Make sure your teeth are in good shape, not stained, and breath smelling good.
A true girly girl knows that a purse is a must. Your purse should have the basics: lip gloss, mints/gum, perfume, a nail file, & whatever else you think you need!
A girly girl must not talk so loud and keep a pace of her speaking.
Have a good posture when sitting or standing.
Be polite to everyone you meet.
Don't wear too much makeup, just stick with your basics: lip gloss, mascara, and eye shadow (but not too much: it will make you look like a clown and you are trying too hard).
A girly girl should not have too much hair on her legs(a little is OK), but no hair on underarms.
Get some lip glosses and cute jewelry that suits you but don't go over the top.
Wear both lipstick and lip-gloss. First add a base coat of lipstick and then add some good smelling and sparkly lip-gloss to help it shine!
Make sure your hair is neat ALL the time! Set it in a different hairstyle everyday, to make everyone dazzled. Don't always leave your hair open. Braid it! Curl it! Straighten it! Tie it!
Smile! No girl will be completed without a smile!
Be nice to others even though sometime they won't be nice to you cause it feels good to know your a better person.
When at school, always have a organized locker or desk.
Wear little pink clips in your hair and wear dresses and mainly bright colored stuff.
At school , keep some lip-gloss with you at all times, and maybe a small tin of face moisturizer. You never know..you MIGHT just get a pimple or even worse, a spot during the day!
Don't become snobby or stuck-up, even if it seems like a good idea. It's not. Stick to your friends, be pleasant, and, as before mentioned, give everyone a chance.
Don't do anything to get you in trouble. Try not to break too many serious rules, and always think about the consequences of your actions before you actually carry them out. You never know-it might just save you an unlady like detention.
Alternately, you could skip gender roles and just be a person.
If your planing to be a girly girl dont start in the middle of the week!you dont wanna be goth one day then all cute the next day that will give you the wanna-be trait and that's absolutely horrible start your training Friday when you come home from school then you will start a fresh new girly week then people will think you changed. if people ask what happened to you just say a little white lie im being my self but dont lie at all to much or people will think your fake.

Warnings

If the old you is good, then there is no need to change.
Don't be masculine.
Protect your name.
Don't fall for the commercialism trap of 'needing' the latest fad.
Don't get dirty or muddy.
Try to be a good person cause you don't want to be disliked.
Try to keep your voice soft and light instead of screaming and yelling.
Any sport is good, but volleyball is the best for girls. Soccer is the next best sport. You can get muddy, but who cares? You take a nice shower afterward.
Never bite your nails!
Always stay calm around boys, and never be scared to talk.
Have great posture, or sorta lean on ur hip or against a wall (always looks cute)
Some people may dislike you or call you stuck-up or nerdy. If you know you've done nothing wrong or nasty, simply ignore them. They're trying to bring you down, so don't let them.
Be intelligent. A girly girl should have good topics to talk about . So study about things that you find interesting and important for life. Read books and improve your vocabulary, and don't use the word "like" all the time; it's a sign of poor education and nervousness. People will admire you because you're smart and have confidence that may be very convenient to you.
Tattoos and Body Piercings- Appearances convey a strong message to others; you can be judged by an individual or right before an event that will play a prominent role in your future (e.g. a prospective employer, acquiring a higher position in a reputable company, etc.). Therefore, take careful consideration when deciding if it is a good ideal for you to get visible tattoos or body piercings. Even though a person’s outward appearance does not automatically show his or her true inner qualities, appearances can reflect how a person is willing to be perceived by the world. Also keep in mind that although tattoos and piercings are individual expressions, they can be permanent or difficult (even costly) to remove if you change your mind in the future. If you are in doubt about how tattoos and piercings may impact you in the future, forget about getting them and find other ways to show self expression, such as creating works of art, poetry, hobbies, etc.
Value your virtues. If you have any good skill or kind of talent, such as drawing, or dancing, singing or playing any musical instrument, do not hide it, work it. Let people see how good you are by exposing your pictures, or maybe playing a musical instrument in front of someone. If you're good at acting, look for a part in any play at theater.

Things You'll Need

Shiny lip gloss,or makeup kit.
Nice brand of teen clothing (such as American eagle, Abercrombie,Aeropostale, Hollister).
Girly accessories (such as head bands, necklaces, earrings).
Make up (such as mascara, lip gloss, eye shadow)

Beauty Quiz - Lip Balms that Prevent Chapping

2010-05-31T19:53:00.000-07:00

What's the best kind of lip balm to prevent chapping?

A. Petroleum jelly
B. Flavored
C. Cocoa Butter
D. Tinted

CORRECT ANSWER: C, Cocoa butter. Some common ingredients in lip balm can actually have an adverse effect. Mineral oil (petroleum jelly) creates an artificial film on your lips, signaling your skin to stop producing lipids, while funky flavors, perfumes, and colors can also dry out skin. To prevent chapping, look for natural-oil-infused balms or those with shea and cocoa butter.

Tips for Shopping at the Mall

2010-05-31T08:30:00.000-07:00

Here are Ten Tips for Shopping!

1. Shop by yourself or bring along a totally trusted, stylish friend (or your oh-so fashionable mom, in my case!)
2. Use the three-way mirror. What may look fabulous from the front could look totally drab from the back.
3. Dress/beautify for shopping so you don't look like a troll in the mirrors. Stick with your everyday makeup and jewelry.
4. Set a budget and don't budge!
5. Yeah, you're a junior: so what? If you wear a size 4 or smaller, try shopping in Girls' departments. For all sizes, the Boys' dept. has fabulous basics: tees, buttondowns, sweaters, etc.
6. Try a new store each time at the mall and shop out of your price range (under or over ) to find new looks.
7. Touch, touch touch. Judge an item by it's "feel."
8. Always try on and make no exceptions.
9. Don't be in a hurry: allot enough time.
10. Make sure you have on the right undergarments, especially for formal dresses, camisoles, etc.
