Letting your hair grow will bring many benefits such as being able creating this awesome hairstyle -but if you already have long hair, then get ready to create the most fascinating hairstyle ever! Although the tutorial is very effective and you can easily create the style by just looking at the pictures, we all know that it is impossible to braid your hair at the back of your head.

Sometimes women try hard to make themselves look different, to be noticed, to look and feel good but as everyone gives their best when attending a party or any similar event, is it is hard to make yourself being noticed but the number one thing that most people look at, is your hair. Of course the dress and the shoes and the bag have their own importance but if your are designed in a way that they look “boring”, no matter how much you try, is just not going to happen.

But today, I am exciting to bring to you all an unique hairstyle that is going to make you fall in love with.

How to Make Your Hair Grow With Eggs


Long healthy hair is sexy and appealing -although most women prefer to have a medium/long length, it is very tempting to go and cut it after only few months of waiting and I know that because every time I would promise myself that I wouldn’t cut my hair for up to 10 months, i would always fail keeping the promise and that because the hardest part when deciding to grow your hair is the medium length that requires so much time and effort to make the hair stay in place. Hair doesn’t grow at the same amount to everyone;there are some girls that wait forever to have their hair grow only 2 inches and there are others that you don’t see them for summer brake only, and their hair has grown intensively. But for all of you that are looking for some easy ways on making your hair grow healthier and longer below I will show you the egg remedy.

1-Separate the yolk of 1 egg. Take 1 tablespoon pure flaxseed oil and beat it into the egg yolk.

2-Wet your hair with a spray bottle, fill it with warm water and start spraying it all over your hair. You needed only a bit wet and not soaked. 2-Take the mixture with the egg yolk and oil and applied it all over your hair and scalp. Use your fingers to massage the scalp.

3-Wrap your hair with a plastic bag or a towel and leave it like that for about half an hour (5-10 minutes). Wash it off after with warm water and shampoo as usual and there you have it! Apply this mask twice a week and you will see how much your hair will grow and how healthy it will look.

How to Get Clear Skin in 1 Week

Beautiful clean glowing skin is a dream to many of us-which most of the times, remains a dream. Even if you have a healthy clean skin, there might be moments in your life when your skin may have problems, pimples, infections and so on. And not everyone can afford dermatologist or cosmetic creams (which in most cases take forever to give any result, only so you can keep buying and make richer the companies). But today I will show you some easy and very effective techniques on how to get a clear looking skin in only 1 week!

Clean towel and hot water: In a bowl add hot water and soak a clean towel in it and then press it into your face. By doing this your pores will open up, which will make it easier to clean them. Just make sure the water not too be very hot to damage your skin.

Wash your hands with antibacterial soap: We touch our face approximately 2-4 times a minute, which means 5,500 times a day. Very high number if you touch it with dirty hands. Make sure your hands are always clean and also before washing your face, wash your hands first. You can’t wash your face having dirty hands.

Remedy: 2 tablespoon of sugar and two tablespoon of water: this is a great exfoliator for your face. Rub the mixture into circular motions all over your face and then wash it. After washing your face, add about 10 drops of lemon juice on your hands and apply it all over your face for no more than 10 seconds. Remember that lemon juice is very strong, therefore no need to keep it longer. This is your ‘toner’. Wash your face with cold water few times a way: this way you will close the pores after cleaning them following the tips above. Hot water opens the pores, while cold water closes them, that’s why I put it last.

Do this for one week, and you will see how much of a change your face will have. Take a picture before starting this so you see better the results when showing in picture. Feel free to share them with us so more people get inspired and have a clean skin as you will.

How to Make Your Hair Curly Using Flat Iron

Flat iron is the best tool to own to style your hair. However, many women use flat iron to only straighten their hair and what you probably didn’t knois that flat iron can be used in all different ways.

You can now create beach waves, small curls, or straight hair. However separating hair into small portions and then styling them takes time. But now you can style all your hair at once with a flat iron for less than five minutes. If your hair is too straight or too messy, then use this technique below to put them in place.

Wavy hair look absolutely stunning and perfect for these hot summer days. Get inspired and get your flat iron into use.

Rope Braid


Step 1: For best results do this braid on wet or damp hair—this way your hair will twist into much neater and cleaner sections.

Step 2: You have two options:

for a tighter, cleaner look begin by putting your hair into a ponytail
for a more natural, messier look start your braid at your neck and begin with step 3
Step 3: separate your hair into two perfectly equal sections and twirl each sections around your fingers twisting your hair

By now you should have your hair split into two identical twists.

Step 4: Cross the right twist over the left twist

Step 5:  Continuing crossing twist over twist until you have your braid of desired length

Step 6: End your braid with a ponytail

And enjoy your beautiful Rope Braid!!

Ripple Braid


1. Take a small section of hair either from the right or left side. It is
preferable to take a piece from the hair on top of the ear.

2. Start braiding like a regular braid, but in an angle facing the direction you
want the braid to go.

3. As you make the braid, keep adding thin pieces of hair to the braid like a
French braid.
NOTE: make sure you only add to the top part of the braid (like in a waterfall),
and not from the bottom.

4. Continue braiding, and if you started the braid on the left side, go horizontally until you reach the right side of the head and then change your direction.

5. Continue braiding, gently twisting the braid in the direction you want it to go, and you’re done!

Heart Braid


For best results, do this braid on someone else rather than to yourself.
Like many braids, practice makes perfect, so don't give up if you don't succeed
the first time! This braid is so beautiful and we guarantee you'll get endless
compliments.

*Refer to the pictures attached for extra help and clarification*

STEP 1:

Split the hair into two even sections.

STEP 2:

From the right section, take another small part (make sure it's not too thick)
from the middle of the back of the head (refer to picture).

STEP 3:

Begin braiding the hair in the shape of half a heart. As you braid, add pieces
along the way so that it stays. Make sure as you braid that you are following
the shape of half a heart.

STEP 4:

Once your braid looks like an arch, make sure that you have collected all the
hair from the top right half of your head.

STEP 5/6:

Keep braiding until you are in the same line as the ear.

STEP 7:

Braid the rest of the hair regularly and tie with a ponytail.

STEP 8:

 Now you're gonna do the exact same thing on the left side of the hair.

STEP 9:

Begin braiding the half of the heart, and once you reach the line of your ear,
braid regularly.

STEP 10:

Combine the two braids at the center of the back of the head.

Fishtail Braid

Warning: The fishtail is very difficult to do to yourself, it is possible, yet will serve as a much greater challenge to carry out than the simple braid. However, it is so easy to do to other people! It only takes like 2 minutes to make!

Step 1: Divide your/your friend’s hair into two equal pieces. You should now have your right hand section of hair and the left hand section of hair.
Step 2: You begin the braid by taking one thin strand of hair from either the right or left hand section of hair.
Step 3: Bring that strand over to the other section.
Step 4: Take a strand from the other side (the section you did not just take a strand from). This strand once again must be a strand that is on the end of your hair (an outermost strand) and bring this strand to the opposite side of your hair.
Step 5: Keep rotating sides and continue taking thin strands that are on the outside of your hair and bringing them to the opposing section of hair.

GOOD LUCK!
The fishtail braid is one of our favorites! Its so simple, so efficient, and just looks so great. We wear it ALL THE TIME! Whenever I wake up with my hair frizzy or knotty, I throw a quick fishtail in my hair, go to school and get TONS OF COMPLIMENTS. It’s great. Fishtails can also be a great look to a school prom, a wedding, parties, or just to hang out with a bunch of friends. Once you get the steps down, they’ll become so easy you can do them in your sleep.

Leopard/Cheetah Nail Tutorial

The animal prints are one of the most popular for this season but what you will see today, is something totally different. While playing around with some different nail polishes earlier and trying to create something new on my nails, I felt the need of web searching a nail tutorial that would help my imagination and it was then when I discovered this awesome leopard/cheetah nail tutorial!

For this beautiful nail tutorial, you will need three different nail polishes colours. Pink, yellow and blue are used in this tutorial, but you can choose other colours as well, just make sure they do match with each other. Start by applying a full coat of nail polish such as shown in thee second picture bellow and after that is being dried, add some big dots of yellow nail polish such as the third picture indicates.

Then with a sponge (any kind of sponge), apply a bit of white nail polish in it and sponge it across the nail. Do the same thing with purple nail polish. Apply it on the sponge and cover the other areas which are not covered by the white nail polish you applied previously. Repeat the same thing with blue nail polish this time. With the help of a dotter, create some dots with white nail polish; these are supposed to be the stars. Get your glitter manicure and apply a full coat with it in all of your nails.

How to Highlight and Contour Makeup Tutorial


Face contouring has been around for long now, not many women know the magic behind it. In case you are a fan of Kim Kardashian, they you probably have seen her youtube video where she shows how she does her daily contouring makeup and highlighting. It can really changes the face features by highlighting the best of it! All you need to contour your face is highlighter and bronzer-and of course two different brushes to blend them together.

First of all, make sure you have chosen the right shade of highlighter and bronzer for your face. Apply the highlighter first on your forehead, cheeks, nose and chin. Look at the picture tutorial below for a better idea on where to use the highlighter. Once the highlighter has been applied, take a clean brush and a bronzer and apply it in al the areas where there is no highlighter (look at the picture). Make sure to apply two thick lines of bronzer on the sides of your nose to make it look smaller. This is a great technique for all of you who want to make their nose look smaller! After applying the bronzer carefully, with the help of the brush, mix these two colours together by making it look smooth and natural. You can easily see the result and how your face looks alive and filled with light!

This is a beautiful technique that requires a bit of time but of course, it is best to be applied on special events or important meetings rather than daily because if you are in a rush to work or school then creating this contouring would be kind of impossible. Try it now and see how it looks on you! I just tried it myself and loving the change

Blue and White Printed Nail Design


This beautiful nail tutorial reminds me of the hourglass but is a bit more complicated than that. This tutorial below shows only nail design of the five shown below. You can either create this nail design in all over your fingers or keep the rest of your nails blue and apply this design on your ring finger. Personally I like to keep my nails simple and plain except my ring finger where I play around with colours and designs and just today I create an awesome design with a gold sand effect manicure and emerald green- but I am going to share that some other day because today we are going to focus on this gorgeous blue and white nail design. You will also need a thick brush and black nail polish.

Apply a full coat of blue nail polish and then with a thick brush create an ‘X’ with white nail polish and then fill two of the ‘x’ in with white. Let it dry for a bit and then add the black lines such as shown in thee forth and fifth picture. Although this nail design is simple and it might look plain to some, its actually super nice and elegant. Try it now and you are going to fall in love with this awesome nail tutorial like nothing you have seen before.

Make These Pearl Hairpins to Embellish Your Hairstyles


Every beautiful hairstyle require you to secure your hair with bobby pins. Nearly every hairstyle I know needs a few bobby pins here and there but plain and simple bobby pins might not be for everyone. And that’s why I am showing you all how to create some gorgeous pearl hairpins to embellish your hair. In order to make them, you will need instant glue, bobby pins, pearls, crafting wire either in gold or silver colour. The size of the pearls doesn’t matter; whatever size or colour pearls you like will work just fine. First of all, pick as many bobby pins that you want, pearls and the crafting wire, ah and don’t forget the glue.

Once you have done that, fold the crafting wire in half, apply some glue in it and put it right in the middle of the pearls hole. After that, tie the crafting wire and the pearl by the end of the bobby pins such as shown below. Usually we see this kind of pins on brides hair but I believe they are perfect for all different elegant events. You can even create a whole new hairstyle by only using bobby pins. And the good thing is that you can create as many pearl hairpins as you like because you might probably need some. Try this new technique now and you are going to see how elegant and awesome your bobby pins will look from now on. Have fun doing them

Awesome Fingerless Gloves Made from Socks


Fingerless gloves are very fashionable and a must have for this cold winter days. Although they probably don’t cost more than 10$ if you buy them in a cheap shop but why waste that 10$ when you can create them by yourself with the help of old socks and some basic sewing skills. First of all make sure you have found the right sock size that matches perfectly your hand. Pick the colour you like, either dark colour one or bright one. I would recommend you find a dark grey sock as it matches well with pink. Line the areas where you have to cut off with a white pencil; Cut it as the picture tutorial indicates below and then sew the ends so it looks sophisticated.

If the socks you have chosen are too plain and simple, you can always add some embellishments or even sew a heart shape material such as the one used in this tutorial. Now winter will not be a problem for your soft beautiful hands and the best thing is that you can still show off your manicure by wearing this gloves. What are you waiting for? go and grab a pair of socks and get ready your scissors to make the most fashionable fingerless gloves ever! Enjoy winter and keep your hands warm.

Start by creating a normal ponytail with your hair (PS: you will need long hair or at least medium length in order to create this). After creating the ponytail, start braiding it by leaving tresses of hair such as shown in the tutorial. Once you create the braid,, make sure to secure it and then twist it around and create a braid with it.

With a hair curcler, carefully curl all the locks such as indicated and you are ready to attend your important event. You can add hair accessories if you would or a simple flower on the side.

Double Fishtail:

1. Take two sections from the front of your hair, close to your ears. Fishtail each section long enough so that it can fit across the back of your head.
2. Once you are done fishtailing, bring the right piece over to the left side of the head. Use bobby pins that match your hair color to secure it tightly near the left ear.
3. Then take the left fishtail over to the right side of your hair, neatly placing it either above or under the first fishtail. Secure it with bobby pins to get this beautiful hairdo.

The double fishtail is one of my favorites because it matches all hair types- long, short, thick, thin, curly, or straight. It might be a little difficult to do on your own head, and will require a little more effort, but its a great hairstyle to do for your friends. Hope you like it as much as we do!

Double Dutch Braid

This braid may look complicated but is actually really easy to do on your own hair!

It’s a great hairdo if you’re looking for a fancy night out look or need a hair-do that will last for hours.

Step 1:

Split the hair into two even sections in the back of your head.

Step 2:

Braid each ponytail into a simple braid. Secure each braid with a ponytail. Use your fingers to ensure that the braid is flat in order to add texture.

Step 3:

Take the two braids and cross one over the other.

Step 4:

Pull the two braids in a way that forms a knot with your hair.

Step 5:

Tuck the remaining hairs either over or under, so that no pieces are left out.

Step 6:

Use bobby pins or a GOODY spin pin to secure each side


Nail Polish


Nail polishes are not expensive but of course, why not creating a new one by yourself in a very easy way. I firstly discovered this method a few months ago; I tried it myself just last week for the first time and absolutely loved the result. While creating a new nail design, I realised I didn’t have a pink nail polish and it was then when I remembered that with eye shadow, I could easily create a new nail polish whatever colour I wanted.

For creating a nail polish by your self you will need eye shadow (whatever colour you might choose) and of course a transparent nail polish. I believe we all have a transparent nail polish, so if you have one too, then get ready to create a new one yourself, but then is the question, why buy a transparent on one when you can buy a colour you like, well that would be a good question but you will realise that creating a nail polish using eyeshadow will be awesome!

After choosing the eyeshadow colour you want to create a nail polish with, take the durst with a piece of paper or anything else that might help, and add it into the transparent nail polish. With a tooth stick mix the mixture together until the manicure has gotten his final colour and look. Apply it onto your nails as you would normally do, and then let it dry for a few minutes. You will realise that even after washing your hands, the nail polish will still be there. Try it now, and you are going to fall in love with this awesome tutorial!

Five Stranded Braid

This braid is a little more tricky than the simple braid but I have no doubt that you will all catch on in no time!


Step 1: Split your hair into 5 equal sections. For practice on yourself, its easiest to pull all your hair over either you right or left shoulder and do this braid there. You begin by holding two sections of hair with your right hand, and two sections of hair with your left—there should be one section remaining- this is your middle section.

Step 2: Take the outer section from your right hand and bring it over the other section you are holding in your right hand, and then under the middle section.other side:

Step 3: Now do the same thing on the using the sections in your left hand bring the outermost section over the other section, and under the middle section.

Step 4: Now same exact thing. Using your right hand, bring the outermost section over the other section in your right hand, and then under the middle section.

Step 5: Same thing once again. Using your left hand now, bring the outermost section of your left hand over the other section in your left hand and then under the middle section.

Step 6: Continuing carrying out these steps until you have completed the braid and until you are happy with the braid. I hope it goes well!

Crushed Leaves Autumn Nails Tutorial

Autumn and winter are two of the seasons where people’s mood gets down. But not mine-this are the seasons where I get creative and come up with new ideas, and today I want to share with you. While walking by at the lake and seeing the trees naked, and the leaves on the ground, it made me think: what an amazing view! and then I had a look at my nails, which by the way were not at their best. I thought how can I create a beautiful nail design that suits this season but that doesn’t consist on only applying a simple brown nail polish. I collected some of the brownish leaves and put them in my bag. Went home and crashed them into small pieces and here it is the result! As the picture shows below, the colours are amazing and your nails are going to look like nothing you have seen before.

In order to create this nail design you will need some autumn leaves (which you can find plenty of them in the streets right now), a brownish golden manicure and your gorgeous nails. Start by applying a full coat of nail polish on all of your nails; add the crashed leaves autumn in all over your nails and then apply the last full coat of nail polish on them and there you have it! As you can see, this is one of the easiest nails tutorials ever and all you need is some crashed leaves and a brown nail polish. Your nails will look unique and stylish in an easy and stylish way.

Nail Design Idea Using Tape


The usage of tape is now known not only on applying makeup (especially eyeliner) but nail designs as well. There is no number to how many different nail designs you can achieve by using tape but this one I am showing you all today is different and takes a little bit of time -but comparing to the time beauty saloons take, this one is nothing!

For this nail tutorial you will need the colours shown in the picture below, and some stripes of tape, very thick ones such as indicated. I love this nail tutorial because no matter how complicated it might look, in reality is not. I just tried it myself the other day and totally loved it. If you want to create the very same design, then you better choose the very same colours used in this tutorial but if you have other colours that match well with each other, feel free to use different combinations. Start by applying a full coat of baby blue nail polish such as the first picture shows.

After doing that, apply the striped tape such as the second picture indicates and then add the pink nail polish in the triangle shape (look at the tutorial below). Use white nail polish by using the tape again such as the tutorial indicates and that’s all you need. In the end, your nails will look fashionable and super cute. Try his design now to see by yourself how awesome it looks!

Splatter Paint Nails

After you apply the white nail polish, make sure they are totally dried and then cover your fingers with transparent tape except your nails. This is being done so you don’t have to go through a hard time cleaning the nail polish off your fingers.

With a tooth stick, splatter different colour nail polish drops all over your nails such as shown in the picture number four and five. You can add different colours to the design based on the season. For example if its summer, you can add colours like pink, yellow and green to make your nails look bright and fun, but If you like a more gothic or dark look, then considering adding black, grey or navy blue.

Blue Sparkly Nail Tutorial

In difference from my other nail tutorials, this one is fun, stylish and looks awesome! It is my favourite so fat and that is because of the awesome sparkly rhinestones that make this nail tutorial unique and trendy. Although it might look a bit complicated at a first, once you start following the steps one by one, you will see how easy it actually is and how your nails are going to look awesome in only five easy steps. First of all, make sure you have all the products needed for this tutorial, which means manicures, rhinestones and the tape stripes to create the design.

If you will feel confident into creating straight lines, then you can skip the part of the stripe tape but I think it is easier on you if you do such as shown in the picture tutorial below. First of all, apply the stripe tape creating kind of a cross with them such as shown in the picture number two. After making sure all the stripe tapes are in place, get all the manicures needed (same as shown in the picture) and apply it based on the picture number three. You can create this nail design with different colours as well, but make sure colours match with each other because one small mistake and the whole nail design goes out of the window.

After applying the manicures, let your nails dry and with the help of a tooth stick or any metallic/wooden stick that can help you pick the small rhinestones and place them on your nails, will be just fine! Place the rhinestones in a straight line, at the very same place where your stripe tape was placed at the beginning of this tutorial. You might need glue to make it last or place the rhinestones straight after applying the manicures so they stick in. Enjoy this awesome tutorial and no more worries about your nails! They are going to look fantastic and fashionable.

Every time I see my wedding pictures, it brings tears to my eyes remembering the excitement and happiness the day was filled, but what’s even better, is the beginning of a new journey with your spouse. I believe it is important to feel and look good on your wedding day, but I don’t support the idea of going and spending thousands of dollars in a single day, and then cry it over the day after!

Cute Heart Braided Hairstyle Tutorial


This super cute hair tutorial is perfect for valentines day that is coming soon! But not only then, you can create this special style for all different events, and if you have a young daughter, consider creating this on her hair for a cute and different look. You must have at least medium length hair until your shoulders in order to create this hair style.

It is best if your close friend or family member helps you create the braids at the back of your head because it is kind hard to create them by yourself-but not impossible. You can stand in front of a mirror and have a second mirror showing the back of your head, and create the braids based on the mirrors if you don’t think anyone can help you with this. Saying that, the picture step by step tutorial is very clear and shows you all perfectly how to create this style but I find it best to describe it with words because most people find it easier that way.

So start by separating your hair on the back into two parts such as shown in the first picture. Not all of your hair, just the part that starts on top of your head, and then create two different braids with it. Wrap around both of the ponytail only once to create the shape of the heart and secure with bobby pins. With an elastic band, put together both of the braids ends and there you have it! Beautiful style for all girls out there.

Braided Ponytail Tutorial


Ponytails are one of the easiest hairstyles ever. It doesn’t take a genius to figure out how to create a ponytail, right? but this ponytail I am showing you today, is not only different, but gorgeous and fashionable as well. Now you can create the same style shown in the picture in only few steps.

For this tutorials, you must have medium or long hair length-it is going to be hard to achieve this look if your hair is short. Saying that, lets analyse the steps of this trendy braided ponytail. Start by separating a part of your hair on the side such as shown in the first picture. After making sure which side you want to create the braid and successfully separating your nail, gently braid it and secure it in the end (at the back of your head, where you will want your ponytail to start). After that is being done, do the same thing on the other side of your head and then create the pony tail on the back of your head such as the tutorial indicates. Wrap around the hair band your hair so it covers the elastic band for a more sophisticated look.

This is perfect for school or work, special events and even prom! Not only matches perfectly to every event and outfit but it only takes few minutes to create it and you don’t need any special skills to create this. In only few steps you can now get rid of the boring ponytail everyone else having. Now you can stand out of the crowd by simply following this tutorial.

Easy Cute Side Braid


Braids and more braids-this is the hottest trend that everyone seem to enjoy lately! The beautify of this hairstyle Is that in difference from most of the hairstyles that needs long hair length, this one can be done even with medium hair length. All you need is some basic knowledge on braiding (or ask someone else to help you, someone that knows how to create gorgeous braids). This is a simple yet beautiful hairstyle that looks perfectly for school, work and all other events. If wore it with a classy dress and gorgeous makeup, this hairstyle can look amazing for all evening events.

Start by separating part of your hair on the side such as the first and second picture indicates. After choosing which side you want the braid to be, start braiding your hair such as the picture tutorial indicates. Secure the braid with an elastic band in the end – and the choose if you want to create a bun or a ponytail with your hair. I find buns to be more fun and sophisticated and as the tutorial below indicates, the hairstyle looks gorgeous with a bun. You can create a messy bun or a sophisticated one (if you don’t know how to create a bun, please have a look at my previous articles on how to create a bun hair style). Simply follow this picture tutorial below, for a different, unique and amazing hair style!

Stylish Blue Nail Tutorial


For this season blue is one of the hottest colour trends which you should definitely try. The navy blue used for this nail tutorial is absolutely gorgeous-although it is recommended for you to use the exact same colours and shades in order to achieve the very same look, you can try and match your own colours as well. Start by taking off all the stains or manicures off your nails. Make sure your nails are all clean and ready to be painted. With a beautiful blue glittered manicure, paint the shape of a pyramid such as shown in the first picture (triangle). Make sure the glitter is obvious so consider going for a second coat if the first one is not hard enough.

With a thick brush, pant around the triangle carefully without running its shape and then go with the normal manicure brush to paint the rest of the nail. As you can see, this nail style is very simple to create but looks very elegant and girlish. I used to believe awesome nail designs would take long time to create but with the help of many nail tutorials I have learned that beautiful nail designs can be achieved in a very easy way with only some basic nail products. You can try two different colour combination for this tutorial as well; I think it works great. Simply follow these easy 5 steps and you are ready to rock the looks with gorgeous looking nails.

Heart Nail Design


The symbol of heart on your nails is very feminine and girlish. It might not be for everyone but I am sure, this tutorial is going to change your mind, definitely. Start by applying pink pastel on all of your nails and then after is being dry, create the shape of a small heart with the help of a very thick rush or metallic stick. You will have to create the heart design in all of your nails except the ring finger. Double check the size of the heart, it has to be quite the same on each of your nails. Now for the ring finger, we have another design that totally matches and makes this tutorial breathtaking.

Cut a small piece of tale and create the heart shape with it such as shown in the tutorial below. Apply glitter nail polish on your ring finger and after making sure that is well dried, apply the tape over your ring finger and paint over the tape with the very same pink nail polish you used on creating the other little hearts. Apply transparent gel if you have any, if not, it’s okay because the design is awesome without it anyway. This tutorial will help you achieve this look in a very short way by simply following tips one by one. I look forward on creating it myself; it looks professionally done and I am sure your friends are going to love it!

Quilted Nail Tutorial


Quilted nail designs have gotten very popular lately but without the right tips on how to actually create the design on your own nails, the style might look complicated. But today I am going to show you a super inexpensive and easy way on how to create gorgeous quilted nails in only few minutes. First of all, you can create this style on all of your nails or different designs for each nail. Actually, what inspired me into creating this design, was a picture of beautiful nails filled with golden accessories and glitter, and only the ring finger was quilted.

For this tutorial you can either apply black nail polish or any other colour you might like. It is best done on matte nails because it looks better but normal nail polish works as good as matte. I like matte because it is very girlish and perfect for young girls. It makes your hand look clean, sophisticated and gorgeous. Now, make sure you have the right tool into creating the quilts. You can either create a very similar took such as shown below or you can create some thing totally different but that works as great as this does.

The metallic part of the shaving razor works great in my opinion, that’s what I used anyway. So straight away after applying the nail polish (let it rest for only few seconds until it start drying but not totally dry) put the tool into your nail by gently pressuring into it to create the shown design. Let it dry, and there you have it! This is super fun and looks amazing. Try it now and you will fall in love with it.

Lower Lid Intensity Levels-6 Options


Lower lid creates a dramatic look and adds beauty to your makeup-however there are many different options when it comes to lining your lower lid.

First option: Leave it bare; don’t use anything. This is easy but not very appealing.

Second option:Simply apply mascara even on your lower lashes not only on the upper lashes.

Third option:Dotted line. Which means simply apply the black pencil on separate lines close to your lower lashes.

Forth Option:Line; fully line your lower lid by using black pencil or creamy eye shadow. Make sure the line is very close to your lashes and gently smooth it out.

Fifth Option:Smudged; this is a very dramatic look and perfect for photoshoots, party, or even daily. Make sure to smudge the black liner well so it doesn’t look fake or bad painted.

Sixth Option: Inner rimmed; When talking about dramatic makeup, all what i mentioned before are nothing compared to this one.It has a double effect by using the black pencil on the inner lower lid. Most women choose to only wear the black pencil on the inner lid most of the time but if you use it on the outside also, it creates a more intensive look. The picture below helps you achieve all these looks and more. Simply follow the picture tutorial below and you will achieve a gorgeous intense makeup.

How to Apply Perfect Eyeliner Using Tape

 Beauty tricks don’t have an ending and that is because of women around the world, trying to make things easy on themselves as well as others that are not that creative. We, women, know that eyeliner is a must in our makeup daily routine and that is because of its ability to make our eyes look bigger and brighter. But how many of you spend hours trying to apply the perfect eyeliner? I know I have. At start, it is hard for everyone but I think as years go by, we get more comfortable at applying it but for many would take a lifetime to apply a straight line without the need of fixing it.

Today I am going to show you a beauty trick that is going to amaze you all. All you need is tape and eyeliner. Carefully apply a piece of tape very close at your eyes such as shown in the picture below. After applying the tape, carefully follow the line of the tape and apply your eyeliner based on that.

The tape not only helps you apply a straight line, but also makes sure you apply the same shape on both of your eyes. For example, every time I apply eyeliner, one of the edges is always different from the other and that is because it is nearly impossible to apply the exact same line on both of your eyes. It takes a lot of practice and knowledge on how to do it. This beauty trick can be used by everyone. Not only beginners but anyone that feels the need to use it. A simple piece of tape and your problems are over! Try it now.

How to restore a shattered compact!


Blushes, dry powders, even eyeshadow kits can fall down your hand and smash into pieces! But that can really affect the way you apply it and most of the time it is impossible to hold it in your hand without having pieces fall on the floor; that’s why we often throw them away and purchase new ones but not everyone can afford buying a new one simply because it is broken into pieces. I am about to show you a great and effective way on how to restore a shattered compact. It is very easy and doesn’t require much time. Start by covering it with a plastic bag, then make sure to make it smooth by fixing all the areas with a metallic stick or anything you can find. After doing so, take off the plastic bag and add some drops of alcohol into the compact. Smooth it over with a small brush and then let it dry. The alcohol will dry very fast and you will have your shattered compact back as new! It’s like it never happened! I just wish I could have found this method before throwing so many blushes and dry powders away.

As about the alcohol there is nothing to worry. It dries completely and will not affect your skin. It is very easy to do and I think we should all try this and stop worrying about our broken compacts. Have fun doing it!

Make Mascara Last 3X Longer!

 Most of mascara’s dry out before finishing, and that’s why I always know that no matter how often I use mascara, I will never be able to finish a whole bottle till the end before throwing it away. But that has totally changed since I found out that I can now make the dry mascara into liquid again with only few drops of saline solution, or better saying eyedrops. Whenever you see that your mascara has start getting dry, simply add 3-4 eye drops in it and you will see how it will turn into liquid again. This is the best, most effective and low cost way to save money on mascara’s. I always like buying good brands when it comes to makeup, and mascara in particular because buying cheap ones will not only damage your eyelashes but will make your eyes sensitive and even lead to eye infections.

This is an awesome idea that totally works. Give it a try and you will see what I am talking about. Keep your makeup fresh and watch out from bacteria’s. I would recommend for you to wash the mascara brush every two week in order to keep it free from bacteria.

How to Remove Your Nail Polish in Only 5 Minutes


Being a nail art lover, I am always searching for efficient and easy ways to do my nails. We, women know that it takes time to paint your nails. Not only to create designs but to let them dry also, so who would really want to spend the same amount of time on removing it? None I think.

What I love most about this method is that it doesn’t mess with your fingers but the acetone only touches your nail and that is a great thing when it comes to beautiful hands.

 For making this you will simply need cotton balls and acetone. And of course to follow the steps shown in the picture below. Start by making small stripes wit cotton balls and then wet them with acetone.
 Put the wet cotton ball over your painted nails and leave it there for about 2 minutes. After cleaning one hand, apply it on the other hand also. As you can see it takes 2 minutes for each hand, which means less than 5 minutes.
 Try it, and you will thank me, I know you will! I don’t claim to own or invented this method but important is I decided to share it with you all; Enjoy and have fun doing it.

6 Ways to Shave -Amazing Tips


Keeping the body hairless is a really hard job, especially for women that have to wax nearly every part of their body, and I should know that! After dealing with skin infections and ingrowing hair, I came across with some amazing tips on how to shave and have a smooth skin.

1-Exfoliate: which means before even start shaving, you should exfoliate your skin so the small ingrowing hair can be shaved as well.

2-Pre-shave Scrubs: help get rid of the extra oil on the skin which makes it hard to have a good contact with skin so you can shave the best way possible but pre-shaving helps you go as closer to the hair as possible.

3-Use a Brush: Have you seen the brush some men use when they get ready to shave? well there’s a reason they use it and that is to get the closest shave when matched with pre-shave scrubs.

4-Pick a good razor: meaning that reasons nowadays are produced based on the skin type. Now you can choose the best razor possible. If you have dry skin, the choose one that is made with moisturizing strips.

5-Go against the grain: this is very important both on shaving and waxing. You can never have a good shave with you go on the same direction as the hair grows. You go on the opposite direction.

6-If shaving is not for you, then you might consider start using waxing products. I believe waxing is a great choice, especially as it prevents hair from growing for weeks but it takes time and to be honest, hurts like hell and the ingrowing hair is another deal. Keep your hair hairless even on the cold winter days ladies.

Perfect Eye Makeup for Blue Eyes


There’s something about blue eyes that I absolutely love! That’s why today I am focusing my article today on this gorgeous eye makeup that is going to make every blue eye girl look like a princess!

This makeup is not only elegant but breathtaking as well. You will need gold eyeshadow (possibly creamy eye makeup), purple eyeshadow, black eyeliner and black mascara. Start by applying a good base (foundation) on your eyelids. Foundation makes eye shadow easier to be applied but also it makes it last longer. With a brush, start applying the gold eyeshadow all over your eyelid and carefully blend it.

Get you black eyeliner and create the winged eyeliner shown in the picture (if you need help on how to apply the winged eyeliner, please have a look at my previous article). With a small sized brush, carefully apply the dark purple eyeshadow on th the lower lashes such as the picture shows below. Black mascara and there you have it! Absolutely gorgeous. I chose the title of this eye makeup to be specifically for blue eyes but that doesn’t mean that you cannot apply it on brown eyes. Enjoy creating it and have fun!

How to Make Thin Hair Look Fuller

 Thin hair is a major problem among many men and women around the world. Everyday more we see different products being advertised that ‘swear’ to make your hair thicker/fuller, but how true is that? can these beauty product make wonders? I honestly doubt it. Although my hair id quite full, most of my friends have this problem and that’s why I did my research and found some really easy and effective ways for all men and women to make their thin hair look fuller.

1-Highlights: If you are a woman and your long thin hair is a real problem to you, considering adding some contrasting highlights to give the impression of dense hair.

2-Make Curls: thin hair is always more obvious on girls with straight hair. But now you can change that by making your hair curly!

3-Use volumizing shampoos and conditioners: try to be wise when choosing your shampoo because it has a real effect on how your hair looks like. Recently I bought a shampoo that claimed to be professional and high rated, I only used it once and throw it in the bin! Not only it made my hair too oily and sticky, but I needed a second shower straight after washing it because it made my hair looked terrible. Choose your shampoo wisely.

4-Use some hair extensions to gain volume: It might not be your real hair but is better than nothing! When thin hair is too much of a problem and nothing you do seem to work, consider adding some hair extensions. I have recently bought a ponytail on ebay for only 5$! I purchased three more soon after the first one because I just loved the product.

5-Don’t brush your hair too much: Whenever we brush our hair, small portions fall and that is because of the pressure we put in there. Always remember to never brush your hair while wet because the root is too sensible and you going to lose a lot of hair if you do.

The beauty of sparkling glitter has made many women purchase at least one glitter nail polish and I have just purchased a new one recently-it was then when I thought about a new nail design that it has not been seen before. Start by applying a full coat of blue nail polish (or any other colour you might like, I choose blue because matches well with grey glitter) in all of your nails and let it dry well before we move on step two.

After is being dried totally, gently apply the tape vertically covering half of your nail. Apply the glitter on the uncovered part of your nail and let it dry for a few minutes (as long as it takes, depending on the manicure).

Take off the tape and with the help of small scissors, apply a striping tape right in the place where the separation of the two nail polish is (such as shown below). Apply transparent gel to make your nail design last longer, or manicure in case you don’t have a gel. Actually I been looking hard into finding a long lasting gel lately but no success; I guess I need to try harder because I love this nail design so much that It is my third time applying it.

But today I am going to show you how to create beautiful nail design with mirror image stamping. I am sure most of us have seen the stickers for mirrors and books, and that’s what the picture tutorial below has used. Stickers that are so small, you can actually use on your nails.

 Matte nail polish have gotten very popular lately and that is because of the ability they have to make your nails look sophisticated. However, although they are a hot trend currently, most of us are used to buy the ‘normal’ nail polish filled with shine. I have over twenty manicures but zero matte one.

At first I was a bit sceptic on how that would be possible or how that would look like but after finding the right tips and tutorial, this is the result (look at the picture below). For this tutorial you will need : normal nail polish, transparent nail polish, and corn starch.

Start by applying a full coat of your chosen manicure and after that is totally dried. Take the transparent manicure and mix it with corn starch (you can either use a small cup to mix them together or in a smooth surface, wherever you find it suitable. After mixing them together, apply it on your nails as you would normally do and let it dry. Within few seconds you will see how your manicures turns into matte. That is because of the mixed ingredients that apparently work together magically! I would have never thought it myself, but whoever did, must be quiet smart to think of something like this.

Fantastic Foils Nail Tutorial

 Tired of applying the same nail polish all the time? Looking for something different and exciting? Here you will find the answers to all that. I will show you all, how to create awesome nail designs using a simple nail foil (such as shown below). You will need : foil, scissors, nail polish (transparent), cotton swap, nail foil glue.

After choosing the right foil (the one you like), start by cutting it in small pieces enough to cover your nail. Carefully apply the nail foil glue in each nail and wait a little bit until it starts sticking. After glue is ready, apply the foil in each of your nails and gently pressure on it with a cotton swap. After you think the foil is now sticked on your nails, very slowly start taking the foil off. Do that in all of your nails and then apply the transparent nail polish (or either gel) on all of your nails.
