Beauty and Fragrance to Fit Your Personality

 Beauty and Fragrance to Fit Your Personality

Many of us must have heard the phrase, "Beauty is only skin deep", but is it really only skin deep? Everyday you may be applying make up on your face not realizing that it blocks your skin pores. To bring out the real beauty of your facial skin, you must take time each day to cleanse and moisturize your skin. For women especially, wearing perfume helps give us presence and can make us seem more appealing. There are many kinds of perfumes available in today's market.
When choosing perfume, hair care and skin care products, make sure to select those that fit your personality best. We are all unique and different to one another. So are our skin tone and body fragrance. What suits your friend or even family member may not work well for you. Your individuality comes to life when choosing beauty products. You must find that perfect scent that suits your mind and body. It should work well for all occasions like work and social events. Only use one fragrance at a time. Using several will totally change the scent of the other and have a negative effect. As the saying goes, "too many cooks spoil the broth".
Choose a fragrance that is subtle and pleasant. You just need to dab or spray a little on various areas of your body. You also need to keep in mind that factors such as skin type, clothing detergent and other fragrant cosmetics will affect the scent of your perfume. Beauty products are available everywhere. More recently many online stores have opened, which makes it all the easier for you to make your purchase. Of course the drawback would be you can't try the perfume. Make sure you've done your research before making a purchase. Often you can find all the products you need online, even at a discount. Many men's fragrance products are available like cologne, body spray, deodorant, and hair care products. Keep in mind never to rub a fragrance on the skin as this will break down its various compounds. You should not spray fragrance into the hair as many fragrances contain alcohol, they could dry out and damage your hair.
 
To ensure that your scent remains on you throughout the day, layer the fragrance instead of reapplying over and over again. Layering refers to the use of other body products that contain the same scents like shower gels, body mists, and skin lotions. Many brands offer layering options with just the right scent dosage. Fragrances come in a variety of concentrations, which include oils, perfumes, eau de toilettes, and colognes.
I would like to give you some ideas on how to buy the right fragrance. The first step to locate the right fragrance is to find out what you want from your scent. If you want a strong smell that can hold its fragrance throughout the day, then you should choose oil. Next, never purchase a fragrance without first trying it out. If possible try to obtain free trial samples of the fragrance you are considering and try it out. If you can't get trial samples, visit the stores that have the scent you want and use a tester. Remember to test the scent in the middle of the day because according to fragrance experts, it is the time of day when the sense of smell is most active.
It is important to know how to wear the fragrance properly. The key here is to never overdo it, particularly when you are using an oil or perfume. Beauty and fragrance go hand in hand and it has become an integral part in the lives of many women today.

Temporary Eye Tattoo by Nail Rock

Temporary Eye Tattoo by Nail Rock
Fantasy makeup and body art become accessible even to beginners in this business. Temporary tattoos solve any complex problem. The body, hands, lips, and now the eyes, can be covered with fine graphics.
The application of temporary tattoos, which resemble decals, is surely not new. We recall that two years ago Chanel offered temporary tattoos for the body (mainly for hands and neck), and Dior released a tattoo eyeliner last year. Lip tattoos became a hit in 2011: they can be used to make lips with polka dots, stripes, and even with the image of the British or the American flag. Those were tattoos by Violent, and even Kim Kardashian once shared the photos of her make-up with such lips in Twitter.
The idea is now distributing and becoming popular. Here is an example – the new versions of eye tattoos and lip tattoos by Nail Rock. These tattoos can endure for 16 hours and cost about $10. The technology of their application is simple: the tattoo is removed from the base paper and is applied on the cleaned and degreased skin, then it is evened and pressed to the skin, and finally another paper base is removed. That’s it! You can clean it off the face with a conventional make-up remover.
“Metallic” lip tattoo is no less impressive.

The face of the fragrance is the model Frida Gustavsson. Fairy Dance Secret Wish is created for young women.

Hair Care With Milk And Eggs

Hair Care With Milk And Eggs
Fancy hair care products from the top names in the fashion industry can command a high price, but the truth is that the same great effects can be seen in many cases using much cheaper ingredients.Around for years, an old wives’ remedy for bringing back natural shine to the hair is a simple combination of items that a woman can usually find in her pantry without even leaving the home. Milk and eggs make the basis for this wonderful concoction that will not only increase the shininess of the hair, but will not have any of the possibly damaging side effects of using a chemical product.
The first step to getting this great look for pennies on the dollar is to assemble all of the necessary ingredients. A woman will need a cup of milk, two to three eggs, some sugar, and a little bit of olive oil. The eggs should be separated into yolks and whites. This recipe will only use the yolks, but the whites can be saved to make a fluffy omelet once the hair care has been completed. After separating the eggs, the yolks should be put in a bowl. The yolks will need to be beaten well and one tablespoon of olive oil and one teaspoon added to the mix. All of these ingredients should be combined well and left to sit while the woman prepares her hair. The milk should be placed in a separate bowl.
To get the hair ready for the application, a woman will need to shampoo and condition the hair and rinse it well. This is a two stage process, with the first being a milk rinse. The woman will need to pour the milk over her hair while it is still wet and comb it through to make sure all areas of the hair are evenly coated. After letting it sit for about seven minutes, it can be rinsed out with warm water. For the second stage, the eggs mixture will need to be massaged into the hair evenly and then left to stay for ten minutes. The final rinse is done with cold water to eliminate frizz from forming at the ends of the hair.
To see how it looks, a woman can use a hair dryer to remove the moisture. It may be a good idea to spray a small amount of perfume or scented hairspray into the hair to remove the smell of the olive oil and eggs. All told, the new shine should last for around one month, at which time the woman can simply repeat the process to bring the optimal texture back. With the process finally completed, a woman can bask in the beauty of her natural hair shine and think of all the money she saved by choosing not to buy an expensive beauty product that could have damaged her hair. The common logic that spending money equals great hair care is simply not true and many women have found that common remedies are often cheaper, provide better results, and last for longer periods of time.

Split Hair Ends Treatment Tips

Split Hair Ends Treatment Tips
Today we suffer from many hair problems, such as brittle hair, premature graying and hair loss in women. Geniusbeauty.com has already given advice on this vital topic, but today we’d like to share some useful tips on hair splitting treatment.

1. What Helps Best against Hairsplitting?

Of course, the most effective method against hairsplitting is a pair of scissors.Trim the ends regularly. It is not necessary to do it every day, as Jennifer Aniston (she will never have a rest until she cuts at least a few hairs a day for a couple of millimeters). If you want to grow longer hair, you should not do it even every 6-8 weeks. But cutting the split ends at least once in 3-4 months should be a rule for you.

2. Hair Care Masks

This method, too, can not be considered a reliable one, because split ends do not appear as a result of rare cuts. Should we then use some other means? For example, different hair care masks. They can be prepared at home (just spread the warmed olive oil on the hair and wash it with a shampoo after 5 minutes) as well as bought at the store of professional hair care products.

3. Drink Water

Be sure to have enough moisturizing – drink plenty of water. There should be enough water not only for the processes of vital importance, but for the hydration of the skin and hair, too. By the way, the products, which contain proteins, vitamins and minerals, will also be helpful.

4. Use a Hair Conditioner

Do not forget to use a hair conditioner. There should be air conditioning after each washing, otherwise you will face such problems as dehydration, dullness, poor growth, and lack of hair vitality. All of this leads to hair split ends.

5. Use Less Shampoo

Shampoo should be used at a minimum. Too frequent and abundant use of hair shampoo deprives the hair of the natural oil barrier that protects the ends from splitting. Wash your hair every other day or once in three days. If you need to wash your hair every day, then you could alternate washing with shampoo and washing only with air conditioning.

6. Don’t Overdry the Hair

Frequent thermal effects must be avoided. Hair dryers and curling irons cause great damage to the hair. It is difficult to immediately abandon these things. But try to use hair curlers instead, wash you hair long before leaving the house, and dry it naturally at room temperature.

7. Hair Protection at the Swimming Pool

Protect your hair, if you go to the pool. The same concerns staying at the beach. Chlorine and salt water dry your hair and cause hairsplitting. Wear a hat, apply a layer of conditioner on your hair, and do not forget to buy a protective hair spray.

8. Don’t Rub Your Hair with a Towel

Do not dry your hair with a towel. This aggressive way of drying causes as much damage as a hairdryer. Just squeeze the hair after washing. Try to remove the moisture with a towel without rubbing your hair!

Beyonce Launches a New Fragrance Pulse Summer Edition

Beyonce Launches a New Fragrance Pulse Summer Edition
Beyonce, the famous singer, launches a new version of her Pulse fragrance, the special Pulse Summer Edition. The fragrance is described as fresh, optimistic, and giving energy for the whole summer.
Life is a flirt. Love is a game. The sky is your horizon. That is what Beyonce says in the release of the new fragrance. The task of the fragrance is to give a sense of freedom and vitality, attracting male attention.

The composition of the new fragrance Beyonce Pulse Summer Edition is floral-fruity. It is sparkling and refreshing in the top notes and warm and creamy at the base. The fragrance is opened with the notes of mandarin, pear and pink pepper. In the “heart”, there are exotic orchids, jasmine and orange blossoms. Cream base is built on the notes of sapphire wood, musk and benzoin.
The bottle of Pulse is remembered by the singer’s fans and has already brought her big commercial success, so it has been decided to preserve the design, filling it with bright summer colors.
Beyonce impresses with her seductive figure in the advertising of the fragrance. The singer gave birth to a daughter, but these pictures had been made before Beyonce’s pregnancy, so do not be hasty to make conclusions about the post-baby shape of the star.

Les Vernis Violets Hypnotiques Nail Polish Collection by Christian Dior
After the success of the mini-collections of gray and red nail polish, Dior launches the purple trio called Les Vernis Violets Hypnotiques.
