If beauty is what matters to you and you have been neglecting your nails in the recent past, it is time for you to start caring as beauty is complete and not in parts. Moreover, your nails are visible before all and you just cannot afford to neglect them any more.

Natural appearance of white color on your nails can just not be neglected as that suggests a deficiency of calcium in the body. It is important for you to take calcium supplements and drink a glass of lukewarm milk twice a day. Milk here does not mean intake of milk in any form and coffee and tea are not recommended. You can even Calcium Sandoz tablets once or twice a day, as per the medical advice. If you can devote extra care, eating turnips and dry lotus stem are highly recommended. If you can add nuts or soya protein in your diet plans along with calcium supplements, there is nothing like that.

In case you have recently noticed yellow nails, it is high time that you seek medical advice as frequent changes of nail color and absence of basecoat have given a bad impression to your nails. Last but not the least, it is important for you to file your nails at least once a week and do not forget to remove dirt caught in your nails (including the toe nails).

We hope that this guide for healthy nails will help you go and stay beautiful in the complete sense. After all, beauty is what you strive for and this just cannot be compromised or neglected at any point of time.

I have had countless complains coming from ladies after the delivery of their kids that their husbands want them to look like the same sexy woman they were when they got married. But after the baby and the baby belly they develop, they find shedding their weight to be a bit too impossible and think that their husbands ought to accept them the way they are now. Isn’t that all true, my friends?

So why is it that we lose all our hopes to look good again post-pregnancy? I do understand that the amount of weight we gain is not something we can lay off so easily especially because the pressure of upbringing our child surrounds us then. And needless to say that being a mom is any time a busier job than an unmarried working woman. She is after all engaged on a full-time basis which leaves very little time for her to spend on herself.

Everything said and done, I still believe that being a mother does not mean that we will no longer fix our hair or dress like a bag lady. You are not a helpless victim and a box of twinkies will not attack you when you wake up. Never forget that apart from being a mother, a wife or a sister, you are an individual as well and you have a right to live your life to the fullest despite your responsibilities. And this means that you have a right to look good once again and achieve the same old elegance person that attracted countless admiring glances all the time.

If you feel too depressed about putting in effort to work on yourself, just open your wedding album and see if you are the same person your husband got married to. The idea, my ear friend is to take charge of your health and look your best not just for your husband but also for your own self.

I agree that this time if you want to get slimmer, it is going to take some hard work but spending some time on yourself everyday will only reap positive results for you in the long run. Firstly, there is no bound to the amount of confidence you will bring to yourself because looking good always leads to feeling good in your heart and vice versa. And secondly, you will bring the old romantic days in your life because men, after all are more visually stirred than any thing else.

So my request to all the moms and to-be-moms is that please do not succumb to mediocrity post pregnancy. All of you are gorgeous ladies and you deserve to look as beautiful as you have always been. So what are you waiting for? Its time to get up and get going!

When we talk nail shape, no one shape is dominant right now it’s a mix of oval and square but rounded at the ends. Square nails will make plump fingers look really stubby while round tips suit long fingers. Pointy nails though are a definite no-no!

FINGER FOOD
If you follow a good balanced diet, your nails will reflect its brittle nails; retarded growth and staining of nails are common nail problems. People feel that nail requires only calcium. Actually a protein rich diet helps them grow healthier. Consume sprouts, whole fruits, lentils, soy products and milk products.

ACRYLIC ATTRACTION
The current hot new nail trend is nail art. Nail extensions are now common not only for social occasions but also for regular day wear. The most common is the combination of acrylic and gel. Nail extensions give all the finger nails a consistent length, look, shape which is difficult to achieve in natural nails. Don’t forget extensions need a lot of maintenance. Many people also get turned off by the fact that extensions damage is slight nail coloration. Once you remove to extensions that fade away in a few days.
