How many of us can honestly claim that we take care of our lashes just as much as we look after our face, hands and bodies?

Yeah, I expected you to make that face.

Anyway, we all have to learn sometime so here’s how you can keep your lashes in good health so they never let you down when a cute guy walk by you on the street.

Use the make up remover right

Harsh eye-make-up removers tend to dry out lashes. Use a gentler, oil-based remover instead. Always give the product enough time to dissolve the mascara before wiping it off. Also never ever should you try to pull off the mascara from your lashes.

Condition your lashes

Frequent use of make-up dries out the lashes. Ideally a special lash conditioner with panthenol should be used to strengthen them. If you can’t get your hands on one, then try rubbing a little Vaseline on your lashes every night. The eye-cream that you use daily I just as beneficial as some of it seeps into the roots of your lashes.

I bet you didn’t know that getting healthy lashes could be as easy as this.

Do we love a nice French mani, or do we love it? And don’t we all wish we could just magically wake up with perfectly set nails very morning?

But what do you do when you’re conflicted between having the perfect nails and spending your day off lazing at home?

Why not give yourself a French manicure? It’s easy, relaxing and a great way to unwind at home and you get great nails at the end of it too.

You can pick up a pack of any branded French manicure kits that are available in the market or you can use the stuff you already have stocked up at home. So just follow the instructions and get gorgeous.

Step 1: Remove your old nail polish. Be careful that you don’t soak your nails in the remover as this can dry the nail out causing it to get brittle which may lead to nail breakage.

Step 2: Soak your hands in lukewarm water for sometime. This will loosen any traces of dirt underneath the nails and also soften up the cuticles.

Step 3: With a tool of choice (nail clipper, beauty scissors or nail file) give your nails the desired shape, making sure they come out even.

Step 4: Now with a steady hand, carefully paint the tip of each nail in a white hue. Remember to cover only the tip f the nail. If required you may paint on another coat. Allow polish to dry to between coats.

Step 5: Once the tips have dried thoroughly, you may paint the entire nail with a coat of slightly pink or nude color. A second coat may be necessary.

Step 6: Your French manicure is almost complete. Just finish with a coat a clear top coat. This will protect your French manicure from wear and give it a super sparkle.

Aren’t you feeling great now that your hands are all done up? And as you know like with any kind of style, nails too require a lot of effort to keep them looking great. You should always remember to let the polish dry completely between coats to avoid clumping.

For best results, keep it aside for an afternoon or morning when you have no other errands to run. It is always best to avoid using your hands when you are in the middle of a French manicure.

And just to make sure your manicure last longer, make an effort to apply a coat of clear topcoat every night and dry it off completely before you doze off.
