French Manicures and How to Choose the Best Nail Technician

Nails chip, crack and break but for some it’s more of a problem than others. With all of the different elements that our hands and fingernails are exposed to on a daily basis, nails are prone to becoming yellowed and discolored from daily wear and tear. For centuries, perfect and clean nails have been a symbol of how well one takes care of him or herself and their status in society, something that has caused the much-admired French manicure to become as popular as it is today.
What is a French Manicure?
French manicures are believed to have originated some time during the 18th Century in Paris, France. As decades went by, this type of manicure continued to grow in popularity until the 1930s, when it became the staple type of salon manicure or at-home “do it yourself” nail treatment. Since then, the French manicure has always been the very most popular amongst the different manicure techniques that exist today.
French manicures are often thought to be the “first” of several different manicurist techniques. This type of manicure is characterized by having a very white nail tip with a pink or nude-shade base. If you choose to have a French manicure these days, however, you will quickly find out just how many different designs and colors you can have rather than the classic white-tips with a pink-base. Some even opt for small decals to be applied, or even fake jewels and gems to add that some extra sparkle!
How can I Get a French Manicure?
A French manicure is not limited to being something that has to be performed in a spa or salon – you can do it at home too! You can either try “free handing” the design (not recommended for those who even have a slightly shaky hand) or purchase “guiding stickers” that will help you paint only the tips rather than the nail bed.
The other option would be to visit a salon and make an appointment to have a manicure. Salons are a fantastic choice as you have a true professional right there, taking care of your nails and ensuring that the job is done correctly. Professionals will either paint your real nail (if you have nails that are long enough!) or more often will apply a very long false nail to your finger. You specify how long you would like the nail to be, and the nail technician will trim the fake fingernail down to that desired size. From there, you will be able to choose any number of different color combinations, designs, and appliqués to be applied to your nails!
How can I Choose the Best Manicurist for my French Manicure?
Manicures sometimes do go wrong, but there are a few things you can check for to ensure that you are having the most qualified person do your French manicure. You should always:

• Make sure that the manicurist is licensed and that it is displayed
• Look over the food baths and ensure they’re clean
• See if fresh hand towels are being used
• If the salon is neat and tidy
• Observe the salon to see if any metal tools are returned to a disinfectant after use. This helps spread fungus and bacteria from user to user
• Make sure the manicurist is listening to YOU and not going with his or her own assumptions of what you want

How To Cure Dark Armpits

We go to great lengths to look after our armpits. Not only do we continuously throw on deodorants and antiperspirants in an effort to make them smell nice, but men and women alike spend time every day removing the area from that area. So after all that care is taken, a lot of men and women are discouraged to find that their armpit area seems to chronically be darker than the rest of their body. This often leads to embarrassment, and even causes some men and women to completely avoid certain articles of clothing that would otherwise put their darkened armpits on display.
There are a number of reasons why the armpit area may be darker than the rest of your body, some of them being major health concerns. Some of these include:

• Diabetes type II
• Obesity
• Hormonal imbalances
• Endocrine disorders
• Tumors
• Medications

Sometimes your armpits will appear darker than the rest of your body because you have fair skin and the hair growing beneath the surface is dark (try waxing as this will at least initially pull the dark hairs out from the root and the skin).
You can start getting rid of you dark armpit area today with some simple home remedies. One that you can do today is use a lemon. Cut a lemon so that you have a slice, and then rub it right over the armpit area. Lemons naturally lighten the skin, cleanse the skin, and they have antimicrobial properties which help prevent any continued darkening of your armpit area.
Alternatively, you can take aloe vera gel and rub it under your arm pits, or you can try using baking soda under your arms. The benefit to baking soda is that it not only can help lighten your armpits, but it will also help absorb any sweat and odor.
Another great way to try and treat your dark underarms yourself is to take fish oil supplements on a daily basis. You can find fish oil capsules in any grocery store or natural help food store.
It’s also important to keep the area as clean as possible and to wear clothing that is made from natural fibers. Excessive sweating or tight fitting clothing can be the cause behind your dark armpit woes, so try cleansing the armpit area twice a day and wear clothing that is made from cotton, wool, and other natural fibers.
If you are looking for a medical type of treatment for your dark underarms, there’s good news for you: you can receive over the counter treatments from your doctor. There are oral medications that you can take, such as isotretinoin, and prescription creams that contain vitamin A that can be applied to the area to help lighten up the skin.
Lastly, if none of the above seem to be helping, it is possible to opt for laser dermabrasion of the armpit area. This will greatly help reduce the darkening of your armpits.

It is Good to Have Large Breasts – Here’s Why

In today’s busy world, women still find time to analyze and criticize their bodies at every chance they get. The shape of one’s nose, the condition of their skin, and the size of their breasts are all things that women seem to obsess over, and for good reason – appearance, in many ways, truly IS everything.
As nice a thought as liking people for “who they are” may sound, fact of the matter is that no one is giving that dowdy, poorly dressed fellow on the corner who is emitting an unpleasant smell a second look (apart from perhaps a look of disgust or shock). A well dressed, well put together man or woman, however, will certainly cause heads to turn and take notice. Large breasts on a woman have that very same affect.
A woman’s breasts have become one of the most, if not THE most, obsessed about body part that exists today. Looking at the amount of women in the United States who undergo breast augmentation and enhancement surgery today is also an indication of how important it is to have full, shapely breasts. Many women have reported that if they have any size of breast that is not at least a C cup, they feel insecure. Insecurity is something that almost anyone can feel radiating from you, just as you can tell when a person is feeling confident and happy. Larger breasts often offer women that very confidence with little effort on their part.
Confidence goes a long way in getting you to where you want to be in life. Confidence allows you to plan and follow through with goals, impress others, and most importantly impress yourself! Without confidence, you could very well spend the rest of your days hiding out in a corner because you feel trapped and caged by some unknown force (for smaller chested women, this may be their breasts). Knowing that you look good and are “attractive” to both people of the same and opposite sex goes a long way in exuding this confidence and helping you get ahead to where you want to be in life.
Women who have smaller breasts may also become preoccupied with the “problem”. Smaller breasted women often feel inferior and go to great lengths plotting out ways to enhance the size of their breasts either through padding, specialty bras, or even creams and lotions that are available on the market. Large breasted women are free of this problem and can focus on other issues instead.
The fortunate thing is that almost any woman can have larger breasts by either using padding material, or going for breast augmentation surgery. Women will opt for this surgery for a number of reasons, such as:

• To have a more “proportioned” appearance
• To regain the former appearance of their breasts that have reduced in size due to pregnancy
• To reshape and boost the bust of women who have undergone breast surgery
• To create a balance of size and shape between the two breasts

If you are thinking about ways to enlarge the size of your breasts, check out many of the several options that are available to you out there before making a decision.

How Do I Curl My Hair?

There are a lot of different methods to choose from when it comes to curling your hair: hot curling irons, straightening irons, classic rollers, foam rollers, bobby pins, braids – or even wrapping your hair around your finger! No matter what the method is that you choose, there are some essential things that you need to know in order to give yourself that perfect curl that will last throughout the entire day.
Use Heat
Heat is absolutely essential when it comes to having those day-long curls that you have always wanted. Heat will help break down any hydrogen bonds that may be in your hair after it has been wetted down, which means that it will be more open to having its shape changed (i.e. from straight to curly).
If you choose not to use heat, then you will need to pre-plan your curls hours in advance, and even then you may still have a harder time having the curl last throughout the entire day.
Give it Time
Be patient and give your hair some time when you are trying to set the curls. The hydrogen bonds that were mentioned above form and shape to your hair as it dries and cools. Pulling your hair out of any sort of curling device prior to it being completely dry and cooled off means that you risk having little to no curl left in your hair.
Make sure that your hair is both 100% dry and 100% cooled off before you go ahead and take your hair out of any sort of heated curling device. It’s also a good idea to use some sort of product that will help hold the curl, such as hairspray.
Prevent Moisture Damage
It’s important to use products that will protect your hair from rain or humidity. Using any sort of light gel or a pomade product and scrunching it onto your curls is the best way to both support the curl in your hair, and to keep it 100% waterproof. Less wetness means a longer lasting curl, so definitely do choose to use products that will support you curl best.
Use Pin Curls on Damaged Hair
A lot of styling these tools insist on using heat over 400*F on our hair to help mold and force it into the shape that we want. One of the best and most effective ways to curl our hair is to use a pin curl. Pin curls have been around for well over 100 years, but have become unpopular as they will take a bit of time to do.
If you do want to try using a pin curl in your hair, or if your hair is so notably damaged that using a heated device will further damage it, start off by diving your hair up into 8 sections. Dampen your hair to the point where it is wet, but not dripping wet, and then apply gel to the first section of hair. Twist the curl tightly, bringing the end right up to the top of your head, and then place two bobby pins in the curl to hold it to your hair. Hairspray it and leave the pins in until your hair is dry (this should take approximately 20 minutes).

How To Remove Fake Nails

For anyone who has had fake nails, you know full well just how difficult it is to actually remove them. Apart form them just mistakenly popping off, there’s no way that you will be able to simply pull them off of your finger so just how can you remove these fake nails? Do you need to wait to make a visit to the spa or salon to get them removed?
The good news is that you can remove your own fake nails in your own home. You do not need to spend a ton of money or time at the spa or at a salon to have them taken off, but you will need a few materials, such as:

• A good set of nail clippers
• Acetone-based nail polish remover
• Petroleum jelly
• Nail buffer

Step 1: To start, begin by cutting your fake nails as short as you possibly can. Once you have finished this step, take the petroleum jelly and rub it into the area that surrounds the nails as best as you can. This will help keep your fingers and your nails from becoming dry and irritated.
Step 2: Take out a glass bowl and fill it with the acetone-based nail polish remover. Dip your fingertips into the acetone-based remover and hold them there for up to 20 minutes. After 10 minutes have passed, check and see if you are able to lift up the fake nail from your natural nail. If you are able to remove the nail, great. If not, dip your fingers back in the remover for another 5 minutes and try again until you are able to fully remove the fake nail without “ripping” or pulling on it.

TIP: Always make sure that you properly dispose of your fake nails in a trash bin rather than allow them to lie around your washroom or reuse them.

Step 3: Once you have removed your nails, you will notice that there is probably some nail glue residue stuck to your natural fingernail. To remove this, you will want to take your nail buffer and sweep it across your fingernail until the glue has been completely removed. If need be, dip your fingertips back into the acetone nail polish remover to help expedite the nail glue removal process
Step 4: When the nail glue has been removed, it’s important to realize that your nails will be very brittle, dry, and probably quite damaged from the fake nails. Now is the time to take extra care of your nails and to give them a lot more TLC. Start off by drying off your hands and applying a thick and hydrating hand lotion to your hands. Next, take some cuticle cream (Burt’s Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream is especially wonderfully) and rub it into the cuticles of your fingers.

TIP: In a pinch, you can rub in more petroleum jelly or you can use olive oil to help hydrate your finger tips.

Once you have done that, give your hands 5 minutes of rest by either allowing them to be still or massage them, and then continue on with your daily activities.

Free Acne Treatments You Can Start Today

Is there anything more embarrassing than having pimples on your face? Having acne can not only ruin one’s appearance, but it can also have an adverse effect on one’s self esteem and self confidence. Flawless skin is obtainable, even for those who have acne prone skin. If you want to get rid of that acne permanently, here are some things that you can start doing today to get the skin that you deserve.
Don’t Skip on the Moisturizer
Acne is associated with oily skin, which is generally a fair assumption. Those with oily skin often get acne as the over production of oil will trap ay dirt and debris in our pores, which in turn causes our skin to break out into pimples and acne. But having oily skin does not mean that you should not moisturize your skin. If you do not moisturize your skin after you cleanse it, your skin will immediately begin to produce oil to try and replenish it. Often it will over compensate and create too much oil in an attempt to try and hydrate the skin, which of course results in you having oily skin.
When you use a moisturizer, make sure that you do use one that is made specifically for someone with acne prone or oily skin. Oil free and water based moisturizers are a must in keeping your skin smooth and acne-free.
Wash Regularly
It’s important to wash your face regularly so that we are getting rid of that dirt and debris that ca otherwise become trapped in the pores of our skin. Not cleansing properly or frequently enough is one of the primary reasons why people suffer from acne in the first place. You should wash your face once in the morning, and then twice more before you go to bed at night.

TIP: Make sure that you do not “over wash” your face. Doing this will only strip your face of the moisture it needs and cause for your skin to over produce oil.

Stop Squeezing
It’s tempting, but no matter what state a pimple may be in – under the skin, white head, or blackhead – do not squeeze. It’s never a good idea and it will not help speed up the pimple removing process. The dirt that is clogging up the pores of your skin can easily then filter down into your fresh, open pore and cause for the pimple to become more infected and even bigger than it was before! Not only is it counterproductive in that way, but there is a good chance that you will be left with unattractive scarring as a result. Focus on cleansing and moisturizing your face and don’t touch your acne.
Stop Touching your Face
Keep your hands off of your face as much as you possibly can. No matter how often you may wash your hands in a day, our hands are perhaps the dirtiest part of our body. Touch your face with them, and you are just placing more dirt and debris on top of and in our pores.

Best Self Tanners on the Market

So many self tanners line the store shelves every year around summer time, which can make it rather difficult to choose just which self tanner to use!
We have all heard of those horror stories about a self tanner making one turn a horrible orange shade, and we’ve seen those women who have obviously used a “streaky” self tanner as they have tiger tanning stripes up and down their body.
Some things that you will want to be looking for in a quality self tanner include:

• It should be fast drying so that you can get dressed in an appropriate amount of time (say within 5 to 10 minutes)
• The color that you are left with should be a brown tone rather than orange
• The tanner should not have a smell that is strong or repulsive
• The tanner should not fade after the first shower

So what are the best self tanners out there? We’ll look at a few of the best from all different price points, from the super cheap to the super expensive.

The Super Cheap Best Self Tanner: Jergens Natural glow
This tanner is great for anyone who has pale skin and wants to build up darker skin over time. This is a very gentle and very gradual self tanner that won’t leave you with any unexpected results. This self tanner doesn’t streak, it doesn’t smell too badly (though some may have a problem with it) and the tanner is only $4 USD for a bottle!
The Cheap Best Self Tanner: L’Oreal’s Sublime Glow for the Body
This is another gradual self tanner that will allow you to build up a tan. This means that it isn’t streaky, and you can have noticeably more tanned skin in as little as 2 days! All you have to do is apply a thin layer of this self tanner after you exfoliate and cleanse your skin in the shower, and you are left with a shimmery glow. Though this tanner may be a bit runny to some, for $10 a bottle you’re definitely getting a good deal.

The Average Best Self Tanner: Clarins’ Liquid Bronze Self Tanner for the Face
Though you can use this all over the body, this product is particularly wonderful for the face. It isn’t streaky, it will leave you with a really even tan, and it will work on oily skin (something that is hard to find when it comes to a facial self tanner). The smell is also not a problem. This tanner goes for about $32 a bottle, but if you have ever had problems finding a self tanner for your face, this is definitely the self tanner to purchase.

The Expensive Best Self Tanner: Guerlain’s Terracotta Self Tanning Spray for the Body
The one drawback to this product is the price. At any where from $35 to $50 a bottle, this self tanner is by no means a cheap investment. This self tanner, when compared to all the others on the market, dries the fastest, is tone of the least smelly of the lot, and color you are left with is a rich and natural brown.

Health And Beauty Benefits Of Aloe Vera

For centuries aloe vera has been recognized as being good for our health, but just how good for our health is often not known to most. Apart from using aloe vera on our sun burns to help soothe and heal them, most of us don’t come in contact with aloe vera apart from perhaps seeing it as an additive in some sort of moisturizing product.

The amount of health and beauty benefits that we can enjoy from aloe vera is astonishing. Aloe vera is not only hydrating, it’s regenerating, meaning that it does have anti aging properties contained within it. Many people who drink aloe vera juice on a regular basis swear that they are not nearly as ill as they used to be, and they feel more positive as a result of drinking it.

How Aloe Vera can Improve our Immune System
Aloe vera is a natural detoxifying agent. What this means is that drinking or consuming aloe vera in any form will help get rid of the free radicals in our body that are responsible for making us ill.
Aloe vera also helps cleanse out both our digestive system and our circulatory system. By drinking aloe vera, our body is better able to absorb nutrients into the blood stream and transport those nutrients to other areas of our body. This nutrient and oxygen-rich blood helps support the cells that dictate how healthy our body’s are, and it keeps our bodies looking young. Aloe vera also helps:

• Fight off infections
• Kill off harmful bacteria that may be in the body
• Rejuvenate our body

How Aloe Vera will Make you Younger
As mentioned earlier, aloe vera will naturally help your body dispel any free radicals that are in our bodies. Free radicals cause a number of health issues, such as cancer, but they also cause premature aging. By getting rid of these free radicals, you are helping free yourself of toxic agents that would otherwise be significantly aging your entire body.
But you don’t only have to consume aloe vera to enjoy the anti aging benefits of it. You can apply it directly to your skin too to make yourself look more youthful and refreshed. Any sort of aloe vera cream or aloe vera lotion will quickly penetrate through several layers of skin and hydrate it, thus keeping it more youthful in appearance.

You don’t only have to use some commercially made aloe vera cream on your skin, though. The best way to use aloe vera is to use it straight from the source: directly from the aloe vera plant. Snipping off a leaf and exposing the inner gel of the leaf will provide you with the aloe vera you need to apply to your skin to keep it youthful and refreshed. Remember that if you do suffer any degree of sunburn that you should also take an aloe vera leaf and apply it to that skin to not only instantly cool it down, but to hydrate it and to expedite the healing process.

The Newest Alternative To Liposuction: The i-Lipo

As obesity rates across the globe climb, so do the demands for liposuction. All of us are looking for ways to get rid of those extra 5 to 10 pounds that we have hanging around our mid sections, our hips, and our thighs, but no matter how much exercise we do that stubborn fat just won’t go away! This is when most women start exploring their options, and many choose to use liposuction.
Liposuction can be a rather daunting process. The idea of having your skin sucked out of your body through a tube that is inserted under the skin isn’t exactly the most pleasing image. Thanks to the company “Chromogenex”, you can now try the i-Lipo liposuction system, a pain-free and easier way to get rid of that stubborn fat.

How does the i-Lipo liposuction system work?
Rather than use a tube to suck out the fat, the i-Lipo uses very low levels of level energy to help break down the fat cells. These lasers create a chemical signal that basically tells the fat cells to get the heck out of there, which causes the fat cells to then turn into free fatty acids and glycerol. The fatty acids and glycerol then make a trip around the body to the tissues of the body that will use that stored fat and use them as energy, which effectively burns the fat.

TIP: To expedite the process, it is recommended that those who use the i-Lipo liposuction treatment make sure that they exercises after the treatment to ensure that the fat cells are actually burned off.

This Sounds like a Hoax
When ever a new product or way to lose fat comes out on the market, we are immediately suspicious – and for a good reason! There are a lot of bogus products and promises attached to these products that have made us rather jaded when it comes to weight loss. Laser treatments are being used in a number of ways now, so liposuction is really just another thing that lasers can do to help enhance our appearance.
The i-Lipo is FDA approved, so you know it’s safe. It has also been clinically proven to be effective. Ultrasounds have been taken of clients before and after the treatment, and images show that many people have enjoyed up to 30% reduction of the fat layer depth after one single treatment. Some people may require more than one treatment, but i-Lipo is more affordable than the traditional liposuction treatment as it is less invasive and is not surgical in nature.

Does it Hurt?
The i-Lipo liposuction process is pain-free. All that is involved are very low levels of red lasers, which then stimulate the fat cells to take off and to be burned off as energy. You won’t even be able to feel a thing, and you will be able to see results immediately after one treatment. Each treatment should have you seeing a 2 to 4 centimeters in the circumference of your waist!

How To Dress For That First Date

Is there anything as important as making a great first impression? This is exactly what makes first dates so darn stressful: you want to look great, but you don’t want to look too sexy, but you don’t want to look too old and dowdy either. So how can you look fabulous and chic without looking floppy and cheap?

Think About Where you are Going
If you have been told where you are going, or if you feel comfortable asking your date where he is planning on taking you, you can get an idea of what sort of attire you will have to wear. For example, if you’re going on a hike, you definitely won’t be wearing your little black dress and heels. But if you happen to be going to a baseball or out for a casual lunch on a beautiful summer day, then a cute sun dress paired with a great pair of low heels or flats will work fabulously.

Think About Shoes
Again, it’s important to know where you are going or what you are doing when choosing your shoes. If you are going to a place where you will primarily be sitting down the whole night, such as going out for dinner with no dancing afterwards, then definitely wear your sexiest pair of stilettos. If you will be walking on a boardwalk or strolling through a park, put on a lower pair of heels, a sexy pair of sandals or flats. If he happens to be active and you suspect that you will be doing something outdoors, then throw on a pair of running shoes (or at least tuck them away in an oversized bag or the trunk of your car). Comfort should always go over style when on a date, but make sure that your comfortable shoes are still cute.

The Little Black Dress
This dress will be a lifesaver at so many different points of your life. The little black dress can be worn on that first date to really impress your date if you are going out for a more formal dinner. Pair it with a fantastic heel and a great necklace, and you’re good to go. You can save this dress for a party later, for lunch, or you can even wear it when shopping with the girls. The little black dress should be versatile and have the ability to be both dressed up and dressed down for any occasion you need it for.

Coffee and Lunch Dates
If your date has decided to take you out for coffee or lunch, great! This gives you the excuse to dress more casually too. Depending on the season, you can pull off a cute spring-like dress during the spring and summer and toss on a pair of flip flops. Fall and winter give you the great excuse of wearing your hot pair of new jeans topped with a great top and boots, or you can even throw on a skirt if it’s not too cold outside yet. Keep your makeup natural and flattering, and make sure your hair looks absolutely fabulous. He’ll have no choice but to ask you out on a date again!
