Many ingredients from your kitchen can be used to make yummy-smelling face, body, and foot scrubs at home. Start with a skin-friendly exfoliant, such as oatmeal, cornmeal, sugar, or salt. Then choose a moisturizing, binding ingredient. I recommend honey and avocado, which are non irritating emollients, for the face. Olive or coconut oil will work well on the body and feet, especially on dry, scaly, or flaky skin.
However, if you tend to get breakouts on your chest or back, skip the oils and stick with honey or yogurt.
You can add other ingredients as well, such as fresh citrus juice (which acts as an astringent) or cucumber (which soothes skin). For a more aromatic scrub, add some fresh herbs or a few drops of skin-friendly essential oils. I love dessert, so I like cinnamon or vanilla in my scrubs — if you’re a chocoholic, try adding cocoa!
Below are a few recipes to get you started on your own scrubs:
Cornmeal-Citrus Facial Scrub
1/4 cup cornmeal
1 teaspoon fresh-squeezed citrus juice (lemon, lime, orange, or grapefruit)
2 teaspoons honey
1 drop ylang-ylang essential oil (optional)
1 drop ginger essential oil (optional)
Avocado-Strawberry-Sugar Body Scrub
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup mashed avocado
1/4 cup mashed strawberry
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon honey
1 cup minced fresh basil
1 drop rose essential oil (optional)
Rosemary, Mint & Salt Foot Scrub
1 cup coarse sea salt
5 tablespoons olive oil
3 sprigs fresh rosemary (remove leaves from stalk)
1 cup minced fresh mint
3 drops peppermint essential oil (optional)
Mix ingredients together and gently scrub your face, body, or feet. Rinse with lukewarm water and pat dry.
Don’t they all sound so good enough to eat ! Yumm…the warm vanilla cinnamon..
Additionally you can scoop out a papaya or mango (or avocado) and save the fruit to eat later. Rub the inside surface of the skin all over your face and arms. The antioxidants and fruit enzymes will help soften your skin.
NO parabens, sulfates, silicones, petrochemicals, glycols, phthalates, synthetic colours or perfumes
MRP: Rs.640/- for 200ml, Rs.200/- for 50ml
As you read above, it is completely free of all chemicals..and it totally natural.. Omved Brahmi & Peppermint Shampoo comes in a long pump bottle..its a runny liquid with a brown tint..smells soo strongly of peppermint..like ‘polo’ !
Brahmi and Peppermint are supposed to be very good for the hair..brahmi strengthens the hair and peppermint helps in circulation as mentioned above..
At first, it needs a lot of qty to completely cleanse the hair..also coz its SLS free..and so does not foam much too..cleansed hair well, helps in frizz and also gives a smoother sleeker look to hair..but if you looking for volume or bounce, then this would not help..also it did not help in dryness and conditioner was needed after this..
This is a 50ml bottle..which lasted some 6-7 uses..so it definitely is quite expensive..
Pros:
1. Cleanses scalp well.
2. Helped in frizz and made hair straighter, sleeker.
3. Lovee the peppermint smell.
4. Has no chemicals and parabens and all natural.
5. Pump packaging is convenient.
Cons:
1. Expensive !
2. Needs a lot of qty to foam and clean the scalp.
3. Will not give volume.
Overall its a nice shampoo..and if you like straighter hair..and not a fan of volume, you can give this a try..also if you love peppermint smell..its available HERE at natural mantra.
I would recommend checking out NaturalMantra.com for other paraben and SLS free options..there is Soultree, Omved, Rustic Art, Just Herbs, Auravedic, Tvam, Neev, etc for shampoos or other bath and body products..more so for baby products too..you do not want to use all those chemicals on your baby for sure..also they have Stevia…which I am ordering soon..a natural sugar substitute..if you are on a diet, a diabetic or just want to avoid sugar but cannot give your tea or coffee a miss, you should try Stevia !

The most important tip to look good for teenagers in a long run is to select right kind of products for makeup application. Teenager’s skin is subtle and soft; hence using any wrong makeup product could permanently damage their skin. Consider makeup products, which are made up of natural ingredients rather the ones using toxic chemicals. A majority of makeup products contains harmful chemicals; hence you are supposed to check the ingredients before buying them to apply over your skin. Though the chemical based makeup products could make you beautiful instantly, but they have a number of long term repercussions over your skin. They can damage as you reach in your thirties.
Your skin
Before your makeup, the skin has to be cleansed using a cleanser as per your skin type. After applying the cleaner, make sure you thoroughly wash your face and neck. Also, avoid rubbing too hard, rather do it gently in a circular motion and rinse properly followed by cleaning with dry and clean towel. Your makeup starts with a foundation. Though many teenagers do not need foundation, they can use a tinted moisturiser to even out the skin tone or simply cover the blemishes. While applying TM, make sure you do it with easy hand using a flat top kabuki brush or just sanitized fingers instead of trying the powder puff.
The eyes
For this, you need to start with your eye brows. Since they simply frame your entire face, hence you need to keep them neat. In order to give eye brows a right shape, make sure they are threaded properly according to your face shape. This will help you in keeping a perfect look using a pair of tweezers and mirror. Now, curl your eyelashes before you actually apply anything for your eye makeup. The eye make has several options; however, for teenagers it is fun to try some shimmery kinds of eye shadows as they will give a good look. The right way to apply them is to use a minimal quantity of eye shadow and properly blend over your eye crease and gradually build it up.
It is better to use eyeliner over the top lid very close to the lash line. This should follow the use of a cotton swab or try using a good eye shadow brush and then apply the color over your lashes. For the lower lashes, simply apply the dots of eyeliner in between the lashes followed by blending it properly.
For cheeks and lips
For cheeks, you could try some gel blush or any suitable cream. The Pinks are the best option for teenagers, while you could even try rosy pink for darker choice. All you need to do is to put the blush over the cheeks’ apples followed by blending properly. For the lips, the best option for teenagers is to try is a gloss as it gives you the best shine. Avoid using heavy lipsticks and the lip liners since they are too heavy for teenagers to try and could even give an older look.
Final word
During the teens, the girls simply want to look hot and beautiful. Using the above top tips, you could certainly enhance your beauty. However, if you still want to try something more, you could consult beauty professionals to look cool and beautiful. Enjoy being beautiful with the above top tips for teenagers.

Some everyday tips which we at times ignore, and that does affect our mane.
Do not over-wash your hair
Many think that they should be washing their hair every day, when, in fact, every other day is best for your hair. Otherwise, you risk stripping your precious strands of the vital natural oils that they need to keep their moisture and strength. If you want to get rid of greasiness between washings, consider purchasing a dry shampoo. On the days you do a complete wash, Use a high-quality shampoo and conditioner that is formulated to build strength and restore moisture. It is important not to compromise quality for price when it comes to conditioner, because it really does make a difference.
Use a leave-in conditioner
It can be very beneficial when you are trying to grow long hair. It adds a layer of protection you your locks, and makes combing wet hair effortless. This reduces hair breakage significantly, which leads to healthier and longer hair. One leave-in conditioner that works really well is “Let It Be” leave-in conditioner by TIGI.
Avoid heat styling
If you feel like you must heat style, use a heat tamer or heat shield product. It is also important to use blow driers, curling irons, and straighteners at the lowest heat setting possible for the effect you are trying to achieve, and never apply heat for an extended amount of time to one particular part of your hair. When purchasing your heat styling tools, it is better to purchase brand-name products. They may cost a little more, but many of them have unique designs intended to cause less damage to the hair than their cheaper counterparts.
Protect your hair from your surroundings
Your everyday environment can be one of your hair’s worst enemies. Things like extreme cold, wind, humidity, and pollution can all lead to broken, brittle, and damaged hair. Take precautions like wearing a hat if you plan on spending the day in the sun, and always make sure your hair is completely dry before going out in cold weather. There are a variety of different treatments that are made to protect hair from these stresses, and also many to repair damage that has already been done. Products containing keratin have been found to be very beneficial in protecting and treating damaged hair, and many believe Moroccan oil is even better. Another time that hair is subjected to stress is while you are sleeping. Tossing and turning on the pillow can cause friction that leads to hair breakage. It is a good idea to use a satin pillow case, and if your hair is very long, secure it into a loose braid or consider wearing a hair net to bed.
Do NOT brush your hair when wet
Brush your hair with your fingers or a wide-toothed comb. When hair is wet, it is very elastic and easily causes breakage.
Get rid of the split ends
You may want to visit your local salon if you have any split ends. Do this about every six to eight weeks. Doing so will make your hair appear much healthier.
Brush your hair and/or stimulate your scalp
Stimulating blood flow to your scalp is another proven way to speed up the growth process as well. Massage your scalp while conditioning for 2-5 minutes. However, take care to brush your hair with soft bristles and not to brush too often. Brushing your hair stimulates the scalp, but it also can cause breakage and will pull healthy hair from your head, making your hair look thinner.

Regardless of the scale of the wedding, the star couples, especially the brides of Bollywood, have never failed to wow us. Here’s a look at the beautiful ladies in their wedding couture.
1. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan:
Aishwarya looked ravishing in a golden colour Saree designed by Neeta Lulla on her wedding day. The bride was decked in gold, kundan, precious gems and diamond jewellery from head to toe.
2. Esha Deol:
Dressed in a lovely pink lehenga by Rocky S, Esha looked resplendent at the event. Make-up, jewellery, hair were perfectly done keeping subtlety in mind.
3. Kareena Kapoor:
For her D-day Kareena, wore a green punjabi suit, while Saif chose to dress up in a grey kurta-pyjama since they had a simple registered marriage, for the nikaah ceremony she wore her mom in law Sharmila’s old red gharara..restored by Manish Malhotra..and for the reception or Dawaat E Waalima she again wore a Manish Malhotra “old-world” pink gharara
4. Lara Dutta:
Lara picked a gown by Lebanese-born Elie Saab for her wedding which took place in Christian style. Her gown also had a lot of lace, silk taffeta, and organza and a neckline studded with gemstones. What more!
5. Lisa Ray:
Recently married Lisa wore a crystal-encrusted gown by close friend and designer Wendell Rodricks, while for the reception she was seen in an exquisite custom-made Satya Paul sari. That sari sure is gorgeous..georgette sari highlighted with beige and traditional ‘gota patti’ work !!
6. Shilpa Shetty:
Shilpa looked stunning in the shimmering golden coloured dress, designed by Tarun Tahiliani. Complementing her dress was the jewellery which she picked from Anmol jewels.
7. Genelia:
Genelia wore a red lehenga-choli ensemble and net dupatta heavily decorated with golden embroidery and sequins, exuding classic elegance. The red and gold stunning lehenga was designed by Shane and Falguni Peacock. The fitted choli and flairs of the lehenga suited her slim figure.
I loved Lisa Ray’s Satya Paul sari and Genelia’s Lehenga Choli..
MUA (Makeup Academy) Haul I recently hauled some MUA stuff..see at your own risk :p Few of these are their latest launches..which they came up with last month..
Love the Artiste Collection Palette..it has 6 brand new merged eye shadows, two powder blushers and a contour shade and highlighter, Brow Kit, Shimmer Kisses Bronzer, 2 Nail Constellations, 2 Cream Blushers, 2 Intense Lip Glosses, 1 Pistachio Pastel Nail Varnish and a BB Cream..they have most of the swatches on their blog HERE which helps deciding on the products..
They keep adding new stuff..they have recently launched lip stains, sheer finish lip glosses and glitter magnetic nail varnishes..
I love the fact that MUA is so economical and at the same time has so many varied products and shades..that one is too confused to choose..
I also wanted the Undressed and Dusk Till Dawn Palettes..but may be next time..
Hey, first of all Happy Dussehra !! For those not from India, Dussehra (Vijaya Dashami, Dasara, or Dashain) is a Hindu festival that celebrates the victory of good over evil. One paper down, three more to go..though I have 1-2 days break in between..

Our Tan shade is for you if you have Medium/Dark, Tan, or Olive skin tones. All season long your skin will maintain at least a medium tone, but most likely will stay tan. In the summer months your skin will darken up very quickly and very easily. Most likely you will have dark brown or black hair.

Celebrities that best fit this shade: Jessica Alba Eva Longoria Jennifer Lopez
I have Light Tan, Fairly Tan, Medium and Medium Light in mineral powder foundations.
Though all blend with the skin and give a good match..Fairly Tan and Medium are a perfect match..Light Tan also works for contouring..
These take a few minutes to blend in with the skin..and then once set..they look super natural and stay for a good 5-6 hours even with humidity..the coverage is medium though..you can layer up for more coverage..a touch of concealer and mineral foundation on top and you would set for everyday I suppose..
These come in sifter jars and have quite a lot of product ! A little goes a long way with mineral foundations..
Here are the swatches..
From top-bottom : Light Tan, Fairly Tan, Medium and Medium Light
Sheer Perfection Mineral Finish – Translucent: A super luxurious powder that will perfect your look. It is the final touch that will make your skin exceptional. Your face will feel as soft as silk, and look even better. Go crazy with this finishing powder! You’ll love it!
This is the setting cum finishing powder..its super soft..and actually feels smooth as silk..though this is white..so one needs to be careful with the quantity..so that you don’t get a whitish cast..but it sure does keep oil and shine at bay..one of the ingredients being rice powder !
Warm Kiss Mineral Bronzer: Everyone’s favorite! Soft, sheer, subtle sunkissed glow. Create the illusion of radiant, sun-kissed skin! Use as a healthy looking complexion booster, blush, cheek contour, eye shadow or lip color. Our Sheer Mineral Enhancers are light, natural and are perfect for color adjustments to your foundation.
This is the best bronzer I have come across ! A very natural looking terracotta rosy brown with some pearlescent shimmer..which is hardly visible..this would look gorgeous both as a blush and bronzer..and would give that softest sun kissed look possible !
This is a lot of quantity and would last super long..its quite pigmented..and like all mineral powders, the staying power is awesome too..
Here are the swatches..
These mineral foundations come with a slender kabuki brush..it is so super soft and dense..perfect to carry along..I have washed it 1-2 times and it did not shed much hair except 1-2..I love how soft it is..and picks up the perfect amount..
