5 Hair cuts when you can color them RED

Red undoubtedly stands out everywhere you endorse it, I think it indeed is a great idea to color your hair red. Recently I have seen many women wearing it and they look stunning. With whatever look you have you can just pair it up.

Here are few of my favorite hairstyles where red color can make you look chic.

1. This is a wonderful way of making your hair red, you need minimal make-up and you are done for the night. It usually goes very well with fair complexions.

2 This is a very punk look that any student can endorse, it makes you look smart and hot at the same time. A little touch of kajal and eye liner will make it complete

3 You can even go totally red like this, it can give a make over to your look. Most people might fail to recognize you but then who cares about them?

4  This is Hotness personified, if you have bobs you should surely go in for such highlights or even hair color. It will make a completely different style statement.

5 This is another great idea to pep up your look and the uneven red locks you have. In my opinion this is the best highlight amongst all.

Happy Styling!

Review - OLAY TOTAL EFFECTS

 OLAY TOTAL EFFECTS

I have been a huge fan of Olay products and today I will review for you, I am trying out Olay Total Effects as a part of the product review program at BlogAdda.com.

I received this package a few days ago and since then I have been trying this cream regularly. I really like the new changes they have made in this cream. Firstly it is not only a cream but cream and serum both which makes it more effective for the skin. Also with an SPF 15 you need not use a sun block lotion at all times of the day. Besides removing the wrinkles and the seven signs of ageing, Olay brings a natural glow to the face and it is by experience that I say this.

I have used a lot of beauty products and cosmetics but Olay cream and face wash have been my favorite because they give what they promise.

The first day I tried this new product I was very skeptical because I have a very sensitive skin but since it was Olay I gave it a try. I washed my face and gently massaged with small droplets of this cream and it was just enough, it just took me mere 5 minutes to get my desired glow on my face. You should use the regular strokes to massage on your face it will also help you reduce wrinkles and you should keep note of what your parlor woman is doing with the massage, you should try and get facial done by the same person with which you will get same strokes every time.

Though I am a regular parlor visitor so I do not have many wrinkles but this cream totally closes my pores and makes the skin look smooth. It does not make my skin very firm but yes it is helping my face to look younger every day. I use the cream twice once in the morning and since I do not usually go out in the sun I am okay else I would advice if you have to work for long hours outside then you should cover it up with a sun block depending on your need and usage.

As for the night cream I don’t need to use anything else over it but I make sure that I wash my face every time before I use the cream so as to get the maximum benefits. The cream does not leave its marks on your face so you can even use it for a makeup base with a foundation. You could also just use pressed powder over it and further create your look as you want to.

This I think is a great formula for all 30+ women who want to make their skin look glowing and look as young as they are at heart. I have also realized one thing that when you apply the cream on a little damp or wet skin your skin will glow much more than applied on dry skin, I don’t really know the reason or the science behind this but I have tried it time and again with many creams and always have found positive results with damp skin.

If you ask me about Repurchase I say definitely Yes but I would like to see Olay in another package that is more user friendly and still stands out in the crowd.

Thumbs Up

The natural glow it brings to your face and it does not look greasy or creamy, it is so even.

You can use it as a base for makeup

Thumbs Down

The package, I feel it creates wastage

There should be more pleasant fragrance to the cream.

CANNES LOREAL FESTIVAL

Loreal Cannes Festival featured Sonam kapoor in their latest style and here is a look to what it was like there.
We should all try these makeup tactics and get the floor rolling

Electric Blue is the color of this season with neons and I loved her look for this event. The statement earrings and neck piece complement.

Rating - 8/10

Traditional earrings with a long skirt is a different combination even the colors chosen are unique.
Looks like this might encourage women having heavy lower bodies to start wearing long skirts again.

Rating - 7/10

This make up look by Sonam kapoor is worth trying and the black and gold can never go out of fashion. It has a very retro feel and complements with the red lip color.

Getting Rid of Skin Tan

Skin Tanning is one of the biggest worries of Modern life. Whatever your age is you want get rid of the tanned marks that you get on your skin after going out in the sun. Today, the problem with most women is that they are working and they cannot avoid going out. Also with the busy schedules and tough life maintaining the skin becomes an issue especially when we live in a country where we have a very long summer season.


Here is a very effective way removing skin tan from your body

Khatta Dahi

Khatta Dahi (Sour Curd) this is a form of curd that gets sour over time due to heat. You could also keep the curd in direct sunlight so that it gets sour and takes this form

How to use

Ingredients

• a glass bowl
• sour curd
• a light cotton cloth
• a loofah

Method

Strain the curd with the help of the light cotton cloth. Now you will get a semi solid curd. Dry your body and soak the loofah in the curd. With the help of the loofah gently scrub the curd on your body. Remember to put more amount of curd on hands and do not use a loofah for your face you might damage the skin. After you have put the curd let it rest for 10 mins. Then wash it with water and avoid using soap for best results but if you don't like the curd smell use your regular soap and you will get away with it easily. Pat yourself dry.

With a regular use of curd you will notice even very old tan marks fade away from your skin.

So You think You are fat? - 1

Girls you must have all gone through this state of 'Am I looking fat?' asking all your near and dear ones and even when they say no you don't believe them and still think you are Fat.

Here is to how you can hide your extra weight on different parts of your body

Some Key factors to keep in mind whatever body shape you have

• Highlight your neckline and feet
• Try not to wear body hugging clothes on heavy parts of the body
• Play around you height
• Use bright make-up if you want people to highlight it
• Wearing bright Nail paints in hands and feet can help you

As a Style Consultant I would always recommend you to buy clothes according to your shape and this is something you can get expert advice on. 

Body shapes

Your body type is: Straight

This is the most common body type for thin girls so do not worry just carry yourself well and look like a princess

That means you have a very equally proportionate bust and hips and both of them are not very curvy. What you can do now is wear something that highlights your waistline like a thick belt or a wide waisted pant. You can also try bright prints on your bust and chunk neck pieces to highlight your top body.

The best examples of this body shape are

Natalie Portman

Anushka Sharma

 

Thia is how you can deck up your straight figure by choosing from an array of these dresses.

Here are a few dresses recommended for you personally by us

 

New and lots more Body shape posts coming up till then

LFW 2013

Lakme Fashion Week 2013

Lakme Fashion Week 2013 witnessed an array of clothes in the wide gamut of colors. On one hand we had black and white ensemble and on the other was the playfulness of summer. I frankly am in favor of the clothes that you can wear off the ramp as well. 

Summer clothes should always be comfy and flowy and you can hang around this concept and create anything that you can. I am not averse to the idea of wearing black in summer but I would still prefer not using it, unless the comfort level is too high. 

Here are the pictures of my favorite pics from the Lakme Fashion Week 2013

These were the most wearable of the lot and also they have life of colors to attract me.

Also what else we liked was

Summer friendly clothes should always give you breathing space and we love these
