Party Make up

Getting ready for a party? Better start an hour or two in advance. A full face make up requires at least dedicated 30 minutes to put on. But who has that kind of time?

Try one of these get-gorgeous quick tips instead. After all, you don't want to be late to the party.

First and foremost identify the areas that need a little extra attention and are most time taking. The key is to enhance your best features and make your not-so-good features a little subdued.

A woman's eyes and smile tend to catch the most attention. Another feature that can make or break your complete look is your hair. Wear them according to the type and place of the party. Do not go over-board and as far as possible try to keep it natural looking and classy.

Lets start with applying a basic moisturizer followed by a primer and then foundation that matches your skin-tone. Do not cake your face. The secret is to do your everyday makeup, then apply an illuminating lotion with a subtle sheen in three areas: the tops of your cheekbones, just under your brows, and on the inner corners of your eyes. This creates an over-all glow that looks natural.

Next, enhance your eyes with a swipe of liquid liner or a regular black pencil, right along the lash line, inner just to the outer corner. If you have big beautiful eyes avoid making the lining too thick. 

Time to work on that pout now. First, prep your lips with a balm (it sheers out the color), then apply the lipstick with your finger for a softer effect. Make sure the lip liner and lip colour are not five shades apart. If you are going for a bold or bright shade, play down the rest of your face. Deep-orange, plum and fuchsia shades are a more modern way to rock the bold lip look.

A matching or contrasting (whatever your style is) shade of nail paint, a bit of blush and soft eye shadow are all you need to complete the look.
At last wear your hair whatever way is most comfortable for you. You do not want to fuss over settling them down the entire time or run to the washroom every fifteen minutes to check if they look fine.

Voila, you're good to go!

Health is the Greatest of all Possessions

Every time you eat or drink you feed or fight a disease. After all we are what we eat. So it is essential to choose wisely. A healthy body leads to a healthy mind and that leads to a positive attitude towards life. The rule is just as simple, the way you treat your body is the way it treats you.

For wholesome family wellness it is very important that healthy habits are cultivated in the family from the very beginning. When good eating and exercise habits are formed at home, they can last a lifetime.

When kids are young, parents have the advantage because the kids eat most of their meals at home. If you stock your cupboards and fridge with nutritious foods and toss out the junk, then your whole family will eat good and stay healthy. Create healthy snacking habits by leaving out bowls of fruit, cut-up vegetables, nuts, or dried fruits.

Another healthy habit that promotes family happiness is having meals together. Sitting down to have meals as a family is a great way to connect with one another.

But which kid does not like pizza, burgers, aerated drinks and other fried foods? In that case, a great health trick mothers can adopt is learning to make leaner versions of your family's favorites. Remember, the more they get at home the lesser they would munch on outside.

Keep a tab on the idle habits like computer games and TV watching. Too much of either leads to inactivity and mindless munching.

Life's hectic routine barely leaves time for gym or daily workout sessions but exercise is of vital importance to stay fit and energized.

Try being each other's inspiration for exercising regularly or it is a great idea to take up some physical activity or sport as a family and play at least 3-4 times a week.

Learn/teach how to ride a cycle, play football or anything new. It not only boosts health but also builds stronger bonding between the family.

Teach your kids the benefits of timely bed habits, the importance of fresh fruits, veggies and organic foods over fried and packaged products. They will definitely thank you one day.

It is also very essential to preach and practice good sanitary habits. Washing hands before eating and such small things are hygiene habits that go a long way in promoting life longevity.

At last do not forget to spend some quality time with all your family on a daily basis, even if it is for ten minutes. You never know what you might get to share. Make efforts, enhance your family's wellness and happiness.
