How To Get Glitter Nails

Love shimmery-shiny nails, here is a quick tip on how to create glitter nail art.

Things Needed: 
Base Colour
Shimmer Nail Polish
Finger Nails 

Method: 

Step 1: Apply a base coat. This coat needs to be a bold colour. In this case i have used the coral shade from Maybelline New York.

Step 2: Dry your nails well, before you apply the shimmer

Step 3: After your nail is dry enough. Use a shimmer nail polish and apply on only the lower portion of your nails
 Step 4: If the glitter is not visible try another coat but with a very light hand.

How To Sharpen A Kajal Pencil

Before you throw out your expensive kajal pencil, try this simple technique to sharpen your pencil.

Kajal Pencil Sharpening


Things Needed:

1. Kajal Pencil
2. Sharpener 
3. Paper
4. Freezer
5. Watch 

Steps: 1. Roll your Kajal Pencil in a paper.

2. After wrapping the pencil well, keep it in your FREEZER for about 15 minutes


3. After 15 minutes, take the pencil out of the freezer, unwrap it and sharpen it like any regular pencil. 

P.S: I couldn't find my kajal pencil sharpener so i used a normal sharpener. If you have your kajal pencil sharpener, your pencil will have a better tip.

P.P.S:  Avoid using a regular sharpner if you have used it on a regular pencil... It will have lead residue on it which is very harmful and causes allergies. (courtesy: Chetna Chakravarthy)

Nerd is the new cool

#Nerdlook is now trending and almost everyone around has either got a fake or replaced their existent spectacles with the #nerd one's to get on the trendy train 

Here are a few celebrities who have dawned the #nerdlook


Rihanna with her over sized nerd glasses that compliments her hip look


Model turned actress, Chitrangada flaunting her geeky look 


Not clear with what their relationship status is, both Ranveer and Deepika spotted with the nerd look


If there is someone that defines sexy, it has to be Mr.Depp with his Nerd wayfarers 


Jacqueline, Shraddha and Scarlet Johanson join the nerd bandwagon

The nerd look compliments almost every face cut/shape and there is not much to bother about. Shabby hair, nerd glasses, tight pony tails nerd glasses..there is not one hair style that we can think of that does not compliment the nerd look.(nope not talking about the princess hair do's) Whether young or old the nerd glasses is the new trend to stick with.

With college's just about to re-open, we suggest you dawn a new look and go by the saying 'looks can be deceiving'.

Trend alert-Ear Cuffs


 Ear cuffs  have been spotted quite a few times on our favourite actresses, on the red carpet as well as otherwise.These little statement pieces or fancy earrings are a must have to catch up with the ever trending world.


Q: Wondering what is an ear cuff?A:It is an ear accessory that hugs the upper part of the ear.
Ear cuffs avoid the need for a necklace or any kind of an accessory around the neck as it is already a statement piece. Much like what most women want, attention, an ear cuff seemingly grabs all eyeballs.Wear them over a long dress or sari to add character to an otherwise stereotyped look. Avoid wearing them over jeans and tops.




 Ear cuffs are of many types too but it all depends on the outfit you are wearing. Whether you are wearing something casual or party like. Much like make up, hair and clothes, ear cuffs too can be differentiated over the time of the day you plan to wear it.Here are small tips for day and night look : http://bit.ly/1fmESYV
