Beauty Nail Care

Let’s face it, woman are obsessed with nails. It’s amazing the feeling well kept nails can give a person, makes me feel sexy and make me want to show them off to the world.

I had no idea that nail varnish has been around for over 5000 years! Also nails are made out of thick protein called keratin.

There are some basic things that you can do for beauty nail care. Below are some tips straight from the experts:

Beauty Nail Care Do:

1: Never manually peel off your polish (some people do!)

2: Good calcium intake (e.g. milk) in your diet will encourage nail growth

3: Moisturise nails as part of your hand moisturising regime

4: Look after your Cuticles: Never cut them as they prevent bacteria and infections entering the body. Just soak fingers in warm water, apply cuticle cream (or olive oil) then gently push back with cuticle stick

5: File nails gently in a smooth motion (not too fast)

Beauty Nail Care Don’t:

1: Don’t bite your nails – will destroy any chance of sexy nails!

2: Don’t use acetone nail varnish removers too often, can damage your nail surface

3: Don’t wash dishes without rubber gloves

4: Don’t over groom cuticles

Just follow these simple basic beauty nail care steps and you will be on the road to the sexiest nails on the planet! There will be more in depth posts on how to apply nail varnish properly (coming soon).

Hair Tweezer

Ever used a hair tweezer and took too much off? Come on hands up, don’t be shy. I admit I’ve had my fair share of hair tweezer issues.

Hair tweezers have been and are still essential tools in a makeup bag. Most of us have used a hair tweezer to shape our eye brows, although according to some experts we have been doing it wrong. Well no more because below we have tips straight from beauty experts who use a hair tweezer as part of their job on a daily basis.

First bit of advice is to use an expert in the first instance and then once you get the desired shape use a hair tweezer to maintain the shape.

Follow these steps:

1: Imagine 3 magic lines (use ruler):

-         1^st line

Line 1 - Hair Tweezer

This is roughly where the eyebrow should begin (beginning of inner eye). (If you wish for a more natural look then leave some hair past the line toward the middle)

-         2^nd line

Line 2 - Hair Tweezer

To find the brow peak, take a ruler. Place on the nose tip and angle it toward the brow until you reach the peak (or the pupil of your eye)

-         3^rd line

Line 3 - Hair Tweezer

To find where the brow should end simply put the ruler on the side (outer) of nose and move at angle until it reaches the out corner of the eye.

2: Hair Tweezer

• Sit in front of two mirrors, one large and one magnified. This way you get detail and distance view of your brows;
• Best to use a hair tweezer after bath / shower or face steam which will allow for easier hair removal;
• Tweezer hair in the same direction as they grow
• Tip: You will never get your two eyebrows looking identical so don’t even try it!
• Professional Tip: Work on both eye brows simultaneously (tweezer 5 hairs off one then 5 off the other), this makes it easier to keep consistent brow shapes; and
• Tweezer one hair at a time

There you have it your simple step by step directions to the perfect brow.

Sexy Lips

When someone speaks to you, whether it be in an office, bar or shop. One of the first thing they will be drawn to is your mouth and lips area as this is where your words come from. Lips require constant attention as they are one of the most sensitive part of our bodies.

The condition of your lips can effect the overall look that we are trying to achieve, as an example if you suffer from dry chapped lips then this can make your face look tired, dry and dull.

Lip Gloss

Lip Gloss:

Lip gloss can add an instant juicy look to your lips with the added benefit of looking well moisturised. There are hundreds of lip glosses around to cater for our every need from different colours to different flavours (strawberry! hmmm….). These are mainly used for appearance and only have a limited impact on underlying damaged lips.

Lip Balm

Lip Balm / Chap Sticks:

Lips are most prone to climate changes and can sometimes appear chapped and damaged. To heal dry chapped lips people often use lip balms and chap sticks, this can act as a short term fix. Try to get to the route of the problem, could be dehydration or smoking, caffeine or soda drinks.

If the problem persists them use aloe vera gel from Boots or local pharmacy.
