Sweat, it's our body's built-in air conditioner to prevent us from overheating, it also detoxifies the body, lowers kidney store risks, eases pain, blasts zits and heals wounds, boosts endorphin and many more benefits.

How to do your makeup when you have a cold

When you have cold, your body becomes very weak, your skin is pale, runny nose and your eyes are filled with tears. Want to know how you could apply make up in order to disguise the fact that you have a cold? Below are a few steps you need to follow.

One. Use concealer!

Concealer is essential in such conditions! Apply it in a thin layer on top of the nose (which becomes red), and under the eyes to mask dark circles. 

Two. Exfoliate dead skin on your lips

Sometimes low temperatures can lead to cracking lips. To solve this problem and have soft lips, it's best to exfoliate! Get a face towel and soak it in warm water and then rub your lips gently to remove dead cells, or you can make a DIY lip exfoliation. Then apply a layer of moisturizing lip balm, over which you can apply and some color.

Three. A glowing skin with a shimmer blush

Exfoliate your face with a scrub, then apply your foundation.Define your makeup with a blush that have pearl particles/shimmer. This product will bring you, literally, the color in the cheeks and give you radiant beauty.

Four. Without black tears!

Another product that helps enormously when you have cold is waterproof mascara. Unlike eyeshadows that fade almost immediately when tears come out, waterproof mascara will make your eyes look bigger and brighter! As you weep, the mascara last.

How to visually reduce the size of your feet

Not all girls have tiny feet like like Thumbelina - some have to hide their rather big feet. 

today I'll give you several tricks on how to visually reduce the large size of your foot and wear the shoes that you like!

Shoes with heels. It visually reduces the size of your feet. But it depends on the size of the heel. High Heel visually reduces the size of the feet.Very low heel does not have such an effect, but makes your feet look big. Therefore, preference should be given to shoes with high or middle heels. 

Shoes with rounded toes (the front part of the shoe). Girls ashamed of their big feet, should avoid wearing pointed shoes, because it makes your foot looks longer than it already is. The recommended shoes are the ones with square or classic rounded toe.

Dark shades. As we all know black is a slimming colour, hat's why people with big feet are advised to wear shoes in dark colours. This can be purple, navy, brown, etc as long as it is dark. It is advisable to avoid pastel and bright colors. 

Open shoes. Footwear that bares too much of your foot skin (I know this needs to be rephrased), visually increases the size of your feet. Whereas other shoes, like open-toed for example visually reduces its size. Sandals also should be chosen with thick straps.

Accessories. such as tabs, ribbons and buckles, visually help to reduce the size of your feet. 

When you go out to buy new shoes, it is  preferable to consider advice listed above, but most importantly - your shoes should be comfortable.

What does your makeup say about you ?

Looks controls most of our thoughts/first impression of other people. What are they wearing? Accessories? colours ? even makeup. All of these are ways of showing how do you think about yourself, and the importance of others for you. and what do you want them to think about you.

Makeup changes people impression about your personality, at least that what the recent study on PLOS website says.

The study was carried on by passing photos of the models on the recipients, on some photos the model won't be wearing makeup, while on others she'll be wearing makeup, varying from barely there to party makeup.

Studies showed that wearing makeup changes the way people see/judge a person.

For example: a model wearing light/natural makeup makes you think that she is confident and loved and it also makes her more attractive. And studies says that the more attractive and impressing the person is, the more confidence he is, which leads to success in work and life.

The more Daring a woman is in wearing her makeup, the more confidence and couragous vibes she gives.

Also studies have shown that the more makeup you wear, the more people will start thinking that you lean toward being irresponsible self-centered person. sometimes showy or have low self-esteem.

Contrary to what was expected, the study showed negative results for women with no makeup, as it gave impression that she doesn't take care pf herself, pale, and a somewhat depressed, like there is something on her mind that is overstraining and fatiguing her. And maybe she is not hard working in her job, and doesn't care what other people think about her and her social presence.

Studies also shown that there is a huge impact for lipstick on what people think about you. The more obvious/bold it is, it gives an impression of more confidence and that you are strong enough to try new stuff and success in doing what you want. also the study shown that wearing lipstick have a good impact on the people surrounding you.

Finally, Everything in balance gives a good impression for others. All you have to do is find the colours that match you and express your personality and accent your features, Because that leaves a good impression on the people around you :)  

Wish you good like with your makeup today!

What to do with expired milk ?

The answer is to throw it in the trash, right ? Wrong!
The answer is to use it on your face, According to a trusted Beauty website, expired milk is very good for exfoliating and whitening your skin! Just after two or three days of it's expiration date, the milk  will produce large amounts of lactic acid. All you have to do is add a little bit of warm water, dip your fingers in it, and gently massage the face for a few minutes.
they said it helps remove aging marks (wrinkles/pigmentation/tired look) from your skin, it'll also brighten your face, and helps make it whiter.

personally, I have a very weird/sensitive nose and stomach, when I smell food/cooking I feel very sick like I'll vomit, so I won't be trying this.

what about you ? would you try it ?

Beauty tip: wash your face with warm water

Always use warm water to wash your face, instead of cold water.

Because cold water causes sudden contraction of the pores (it closes the pores) before you get to remove all the dirt, oil, and cleanser from your face, which can cause pimples and breakouts.

Also don't use hot water to wash your face or it'll make your skin expand causing you early wrinkles.

Expired cosmetics recycling

while I was browsing in some Chinese website, I came across this post about recycling expired makeup and I thought I would share it with you :)

Original post :

【过期化妆品循环利用】今天我发现我很多小东西过期了不过这也有用处啦：没有颜色的乳液可以用来擦拭皮包；过期的眼影粉末可以混合在指甲油中，做成不一样的甲油；爽肤水可以擦梳妆台和镜子；洁面乳刷鞋子；散粉可以放在衣柜鞋柜除湿气；香水擦灯具；沐浴露洗浴缸；洗发水洗毛衣.

And this it what it says:
(take in mind that I can't speak/read Chinese, and I have to use google translate)

[Expired cosmetics recycling] Today I found a lot of small things expired, but it also can be used in other ways: clear/uncoloured emulsion can be used to wipe the bag(the outside of leather/plastic/or similar materials); expired eye shadow powder can be mixed with nail polish, it'll give a nice effect; Toner can be used to clean dresser and mirror; Cleanser can clean Brushes and  shoes; loose shoe wardrobe can be placed in addition to moisture(I don't understand what she means); perfume can be to rub lamps; shower gel for washing the bathtub; shampoo to wash sweaters.

PLEASE Share this!!!

WRITTEN BY A COP: Everyone should take 5 minutes to read this. It may save your life or a loved one’s life. In daylight hours, refresh yourself of these things to do in an emergency situation… This is for you, and for you to share with your wife, your children, & everyone you know. After reading these 9 crucial tips, forward them to someone you care about. It never hurts to be careful in this crazy world we live in.

1. Tip from Tae Kwon Do :The elbow is the strongest point on your body. If you are close enough to use it, do!

2. Learned this from a tourist guide. If a robber asks for your wallet and/or purse,
DO NOT HAND IT TO HIM. Toss it away from you… Chances are that he is more interested in your wallet and/or purse than you, and he will go for the wallet/purse.
RUN LIKE MAD IN THE OTHER DIRECTION!

3. If you are ever thrown into the trunk of a car, kick out the back tail lights and stick your arm out the hole and start waving like crazy.. The driver won’t see you, but everybody else will. This has saved lives.

4. Women have a tendency to get into their cars after shopping, eating, working, etc., and just sit (doing their checkbook, or making a list, etc.
DON’T DO THIS!) The predator will be watching you, and this is the perfect opportunity for him to get in on the passenger side, put a gun to your head,
and tell you where to go. AS SOON AS YOU GET INTO YOUR CAR ,
LOCK THE DOORS AND LEAVE..

If someone is in the car with a gun to your head DO NOT DRIVE OFF, Repeat:
DO NOT DRIVE OFF! Instead gun the engine and speed into anything, wrecking the car. Your Air Bag will save you. If the person is in the back seat they will get the worst of it. As soon as the car crashes bail out and run. It is better than having them find your body in a remote location.

5. A few notes about getting into your car in a parking lot, or parking garage:
A.) Be aware:look around you, look into your car, at the passenger side floor ,
and in the back seat.
B.) If you are parked next to a big van, enter your car from the passenger door.
Most serial killers attack their victims by pulling them into their vans while the women
are attempting to get into their cars. C.) Look at the car parked on the driver’s side of your vehicle, and the passenger side.. If a male is sitting alone in the seat nearest your car, you may want to walk back into the mall, or work, and get a guard/policeman to walk you back out. IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY. (And better paranoid than dead.)

6. ALWAYS take the elevator instead of the stairs. Stairwells are horrible places to be alone and the perfect crime spot. This is especially true at NIGHT!)

7. If the predator has a gun and you are not under his control, ALWAYS RUN!
The predator will only hit you (a running target) 4 in 100 times; and even then,
it most likely WILL NOT be a vital organ. RUN, Preferably in a zig -zag pattern!

8. As women, we are always trying to be sympathetic: STOP It may get you raped, or killed. Ted Bundy, the serial killer, was a good-looking, well educated man, who ALWAYS played on the sympathies of unsuspecting women. He walked with a cane, or a limp, and often asked ‘for help’ into his vehicle or with his vehicle, which is when he abducted his next victim.

9. Another Safety Point: Someone just told me that her friend heard a crying baby on her porch the night before last, and she called the police because it was late
and she thought it was weird.. The police told her ‘Whatever you do, DO NOT
open the door..’ The lady then said that it sounded like the baby
had crawled near a window, and she was worried that it would crawl to the street and get run over. The policeman said, ‘We already have a unit on the way,
whatever you do, DO NOT open the door.’ He told her that they think a serial killer
has a baby’s cry recorded and uses it to coax women out of their homes thinking that someone dropped off a baby.. He said they have not verified it, but have had several calls by women saying that they hear baby’s cries outside their doors when they’re home alone at night.

10. Water scam! If you wake up in the middle of the night to hear all your taps outside running or what you think is a burst pipe, DO NOT GO OUT TO INVESTIGATE! These people turn on all your outside taps full blast so that you will go out to investigate and then attack.

Stay alert, keep safe, and look out for your neighbors! Please pass this on
This post should probably be taken seriously because the Crying Baby Theory was mentioned on America ‘s Most Wanted when they profiled
the serial killer in Louisiana

I’d like you to forward this to all the women you know.
It may save a life. A candle is not dimmed by lighting another candle..
I was going to send this to the ladies only,
but guys, if you love your mothers, wives, sisters, daughters, etc.,
you may want to pass it onto them, as well.

Send this to any woman you know that may need
to be reminded that the world we live in has a lot of crazies in it
and it’s better to be safe than sorry..
Everyone should take 5 minutes to read this. It may save your life or
a loved one’s life.
