Makeup that enhances your features - yes, that’s right. Looking good is not about changing the way you look but enhancing and flattering what you have. And the best accessory for that, by far, is not just makeup but the right makeup for your skin.Meanwhile, it’s a common misconception that looking great takes plenty of time. Wrong. Do you have five to ten minutes? Well, take the following steps and off you go! But before anything else, determine your skin tone. This is the fundamental step—keep in mind that your makeup should be based on your skin tone. You don’t want to be caught wearing something that will look drab than fab.For fair-skinned, apply light earth tones. Accentuate your eyes with pastels, such as lavender or blue. Pink will look good on your eyes, cheeks, and lips. Take note that sheer colors are best for you. Finish that off with a sheer lipstick.On the other hand, those who have medium-toned skin should go for that sun-kissed look. Indulge in jewel colors as well as deep matte earth tones—hunter green, dark grey, beige and brown will accent your eyes. Top off your lipstick—anything from pink to red— with a luscious lip gloss.Choosing the right shades such as shimmer colors and natural shades is best for someone who is dark skinned. Avoid, as much as possible, using strong orange base. To highlight your cheekbone, go for apricot shades or deep rose and to make your look complete, lip colors that are darker should be used on your lips—try caramel, apricot, or blackberry.Lastly, those who have olive and ethnic skin tones should flaunt their features with metallic but darker shades, along with more neutral colors such as blue or dark purple. Stick with the natural colors and touch those lips with lipstick shades that will bring out your lips—plum, almond, russet or berry.Just by following these simple steps, looking great is just a blush away!
 "All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt." —Charles M. Schulz
Ever wondered why chocolates are one of the favorite things given during the process of courtship or when one is wooing someone? Maybe because chocolates are believed to be aphrodisiacs (Studies actually indicate they’re not. However, it was the belief of the Aztecs that chocolate contains phenylethylamine (PEA), a natural substance that is reputed to stimulate the same reaction in the body as falling in love. Hence, heartbreak and loneliness are great excuses for chocolate overindulgence.) Or simply because most chocolates are sweet enough to signify those you-make-me-melt feelings. History reveals another truth that we should be thankful for Columbus: it was Columbus who took the cacao beans from the Americas back to Spain. However, it was during the time Mexico was conquered that the Spaniards took interest as to the potentials of cacao. In fact, cacao beans were worshipped by the Aztecs and Mayans with the belief that these beans are food of the Gods. It was also during this time that the first hot chocolate came in perspective: beans alone were too bitter, thus resourcefulness pushed them to add can sugar.So the next time you sip your milky hot chocolate or take a bite of your favorite chocolate, take these interesting facts about these luscious and hypnotizing chocolates or better yet watch the flick Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (it’s as colorful and exciting as that):- It was Fry & Sons who created the first solid chocolate bar in 1847 in Bristol, England.
- Daniel Peters created in 1875 the first ever milk chocolate bar in Switzerland.
- It was in 1765 that the first chocolate factory in the United States was founded in Dorchester, Massachusetts.
- Chocolates contain less caffeine than coffee.
- Chocolate boosts 500 flavor components. (So much to choose from!)
- Few studies revealed the presence of flavonoids in chocolates. Flavanoids are considered as antioxidants.
These are but few of the interesting facts about chocolates. So these will make you love chocolate even more, but moderation is still the key to live a healthy life.
 How would you like to earn millions? You could be one if you were somebody like Ted Nicholas, known to be the highest paid copywriter in the world. Why don't you stick around and learn a few notes on learning or improving your craft? Here are some tips that will help you become a great copywriter.
You have to take note of one important thing before you start earning your millions: Copywriting takes years to perfect, but if you are gifted, then you can hit it like the big boys in no time. If not, remember, patience is a virtue and in the long run, you will get there, too! Awesome Copy Writing Tips- Get yourself an interesting title. Think of a title that makes readers do a double take. You see, the title is the very first thing a reader sees. Nobody would spend two seconds staring at a title that looks like any other. Grab people's notice by using a catchy title.
- Grab your readers with your first line. Sure, a reader would stay a bit to read something that would make his eyes droop. But does he really stick to it? Remember, he already got through the title, now it is your time to reel him in.
- Stay away from fancy words. Good copywriting extends to all languages all over the world. You become a good copywriter if you are able to reach out even to those who are not primary English speakers and get them interested in what you have to say. Express your thoughts in a way that other people would be comfortable reading.
- Keep your work simple and easy to understand. A lot of people believe that to be a good writer, you must be able to include a lot of 3 to 4-syllable words in each sentence you write. That is not true. Most people prefer words that are easier to understand.
- Be direct. Keeping things short, simple, and direct to the point is more appealing than a 10-page discussion on anything. Stay focused on your main thoughts and do not stray from your topic.
- Humanize your work. Everything in this world, even in copywriting, people tend to gravitate towards things that they can relate to as humans. May it be something that happens personally, or from somebody they know, people just love good personal information or two. Hook them up with a good story or two, and then get on with your topic.
- Use information. When you write, make sure that there factual information that you actually disclose. There are some writers who make words twirl and ultimately skip out on decent knowledge being passed on. Include reports, figures, quotes, and other details that are connected with your topic to make it believable and more real.
- Proofread. It is important to double, if not, triple check your work. It is best to write fully for the first round, and then close your document after saving or put it away. Then, when you come back, you will be able to look at your work with clearer eyes. That way, you will be able to spot inconsistencies, grammatical errors, and even broken sentences which you will be able to correct better.
 These are basic tips on how to be a great copywriter. Nobody becomes the best overnight. You must practice constantly and learn from your mistakes. By doing so, you are sharpening your techniques and becoming one of the best copy writers in the business - like Ted!
Hey, millions does not seem so far now, does it?
 Yoga has become part and a way of life in our modern world especially in the realm of fitness and health. It is basically defined as a group of ancient spiritual practices that might have originated in India around 3300 BCE for the purpose of cultivating a steady mind. Yoga's etymologies include the rootword yuj meaning "to control", "to yoke", or "to unite". Other similar definitions are "joining" or "uniting".
One fundamental part of practicing yoga is the restorative yoga positions, or asanas which are believed to help relieve the effects of illness and chronic stress in many ways. They provide an environment for relaxation, abrogate the effects of gravity on blood and lymph fluid thus improving heart function as well as ameliorating the transmission of oxygen and waste products across cell membranes. There are different styles of Yoga and one specific style is Purna Yoga. It takes the wisdom of the past and updates it for the future while providing tools for healthy living and thus bringing physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual awareness that can help the individual in its spiritual growth. Purna Yoga is also known as Integral yoga. This is a modern version of the traditional yoga. It also teaches the life philosophy that what you do everyday is important and so the law of karma also applies, that is what goes around, comes around. It also places its emphasis in the spiritual ideal of life on the foundation of an integrated world-view that takes into account the evolutionary and historical perspective of life.  Today, there are many schools focusing on the practice of Purna Yoga because of its multitude of benefits. Purna means "complete" so from the word itself practicing this form of yoga can restore you from top to bottom. The essential method of Purna yoga also known as Integral yoga, is a total and unreserved surrender of everything we are to the Divine and its primary focus is in the spiritual. Whenever we are linked to our spirituality, we can have balance. This surrender usually begins in the mind. Our motives of thought, feeling or action are all driven towards the Divine.
There are essentially four important benefits of Purna yoga. First, it improves both flexibility and strength. Due to the asanas positions, it stretches all aspects of the body. Since, it requires effort and a disciplined way of breathing, it can be a form of exercise thus it improves cardiovascular health. Other additional benefits are creating mental clarity and focus and creating emotional balance. To sum it all up, Yoga, specifically Purna yoga has its sets of benefits, not only it is safe for all ages and body types it is a great way to relax both body and soul.
 We often hear of some celebrity or another confession on live national TV that she’s battling bulimia, which is probably one of the reasons why more and more people now know what the disease is and what it is about. However, one thing that we know very little of is the exact cause of the disease.
Bulimia is among the most lethal of mental health diseases, claiming the lives of six to thirteen percent of its victims, the majority of which are still in their teens. Basically there is no exact cause for bulimia. Studies suggest that the disease is a result of the interaction of a variety of factors. There’s evidence that some people have a genetic predisposition towards the disease, especially if the person has a history of addiction in the family. There is also a strong correlation between sexual abuse and the development of the eating disorder. Other factors include family attitudes on health, peer pressure, as well as the ubiquitous influence of the media on how people, especially young women, view the ideal body should be. The media’s constant emphasis on the thin body as the ideal body is believed to be a major factor why young girls binge and purge in an attempt to stay thin. Factors that can increase the risk include poor eating habits, low self-esteem and ineffective coping skills. All these things can work together to contribute to the development of bulimia in an individual. The bottom line is that bulimia is a deadly disease. If you see the classic signs of bulimia in a person who also has the above, encourage that person (especially if he or she is a friend or family member) to get help and continue to offer your support.
Staying fit and lean is a part of staying healthy. However, more and more people are finding that difficult to do, what with all the fast food meals just a call away and the remote control within easy reach. However, if you want to lose weight, the only way to do that is through proper diet and exercise. Too much of cliché? Yes, it is, but it also happens to be true. The right diet (not the yo-yo kind) and staying active are the most effective and healthy ways to keep the extra pounds at bay and keep your body fit at the same time. At Home Most people have the misconception that ‘exercise’ or even the phrase ‘staying fit’ means getting a gym membership and doing a couple of miles on the treadmill every day. However, most of us are either too busy or too lazy to do so. One easy way to start burning off extra calories without having to go the gym everyday is to do everyday chores. Ways that can really burn off those extra pounds include walking your dog, scrubbing the windows or the floor, or even taking out the trash. Notice how your grandmother never battled the bulge during her early days? It’s probably because she had to take care of 6 children and do the laundry, the cooking, and every other household chore all by herself. Doesn’t mean that you have to go down the exact route, just start doing the dishes or mop the floor once in a while. You’ll get cleaner floors AND less calories to burn. At Work If work is only a couple of blocks away, start the day right by walking. You’ll be saving money on gas or bus fare too. Also, take the stairs instead of the elevator or the escalator to give your body an early-morning energy boost before you sit down to work. There are also a lot of things that you can do to stay fit even while sitting at your desk. Start by sitting right, with your back straight and stomach muscles tight. Stand up and pace when you have to take a phone call to give your body an energy boost, as well as a chance to stretch your muscles. Store files in the overhead compartments you that you will need to stand up in order to reach them. Of course, a regular fitness regimen is always good for you, especially if you want to stay fit and work on your body at the same time. But you can always start with these simple ideas, and work your way up. Getting off that couch and doing some mowing is better than doing nothing at all.
A Mini-CourseHow to get pregnantAre you thinking of having a family and already considering having a baby now? Here are some guidelines on how to get pregnant.  Do you know when you are most fertile? It is between the 14th to the 21st day of your cycle, where day 1 is the first day of you period. Having regular sexual intercourse during this time would most likely bear fruit. Low fertility rate aside, the secret of getting pregnant, is to know your (woman) ovulation period. Aside from the calendar method mentioned, the cervical mucus discharge can also be considered. It is the white/clear substance or the yellowish and thick discharge from the woman. When very fertile, the woman can observe the latter which sends a go signal for the partners to try having a baby. Body temperature is also another method; take your body temperature in the morning before you move around. When you are ovulating, your body temp will drop half degree, however this reading also has errors sometimes. And an over the counter ovulation-predictor kits are also available to help you predict your ovulation period. If none worked for you, it is advisable to seek for medical advice. Healthy diet during pregnancyIt is a misconception that when you are pregnant, you are actually eating for two. You only need to eat 300 extra calories per day beginning on the third trimester of your conception. Overeating is most likely the common problem among pregnant women in which only 25 to 35 pounds weight gain is recommended.  Do eat healthy foods, the nutrient-dense foods. Milk is primarily the need of a pregnant woman, not only that it gives calcium but also a lot of protein. B vitamins and protein are also very essential which can be found in lean pork and beef. Whole grains are also rich in B vitamins plus magnesium, zinc and fiber which is essential to avoid constipation along with 8 to 10 glasses of water daily. Orange juice is also highly recommended for folate and Vitamin C intake. Do not eat too many sweets during pregnancy. Eat moderately on candies, cake, cookies and ice cream. Do not get filled with empty calories and sweets. By doing so, you might only replace nutrient-dense foods or worse, get too much overall calories. Tips in naming your baby The name is for a lifetime. The name of your baby will reflect how he or she will be as a person. Make sure that the name not only gives you warm but would also give joy and pride to your baby as he or she brings it for life. Why not integrate your names together in naming your baby? It is fun to combine something from both of your partner’s name. Your baby’s name can start the first letter of his or her name with the first letter of either of your names. For instance, your name is Joan and your husband’s name is Ronald, why not name your baby Rhona Jeanne? You can also consider other meaningful names out of your religion or ethnicity. You can refer to the bible or to holy books in respect to your religion or names from historical books to honor ethnicity. Foresee spelling and pronunciation problems. Make sure that your baby’s name will not be his or her lifetime frustration, having so many problems in the pronunciation base on the spelling. It is also note worthy to avoid initials that can form or spell out words like “RAT” in the name Reynold Alan Talbot. Would you be happy to see RAT in a monogrammed baby gift? You can also settle for popular names or names of celebrities like Jennifer and John. Above all, you just have to follow your heart. Whatever you feel like naming your baby, go for it. What matters is that you feel comfortable with it and most importantly, you love it.  Tips on getting back into shapeYou move. You can actually start doing short distance walking like just around the block if it does not give you any discomfort until your check up on your 6th week. After which, you can already start doing cardio for 20 to 30 minutes around two to three times a day. You breastfeed your baby--breastfeeding can actually burn 600 to 800 calories per day. Though you need an extra 500 calories on your diet, they are completely burn even when you simply sit comfortably while feeding your baby.  You hold your baby above your chest, press your baby slowly towards the ceiling several times while lying on your back. No fitness program nor gym appointments needed. Have fun with your baby, lift weights and get strong. You fill your diet with nutrient-rich meals. Lean meat, fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and plenty of low-fat dairy products are very much recommended. Sodas and chips are junk, therefore, they are NO NO to you. Stay healthy and always watch on your calories and fats.
The number of stray dogs seems to be increasing over time. The reason behind this is simply because the owners couldn’t seem to meet the expectations needed to handle and take care of a pet. It’s not easy taking care of a dog, whatever the breed. There are many things to look into. Sometimes taking care of a dog would seem like taking care of a child in many ways. You might find yourself adopting a stray dog. In this case, the care expectation is even higher. You don’t know what you’re dealing with when you take care of a stray dog. Does this dog have an allergy? Has it been immunized? Has it developed any diseases through the time it has spent outside a good home? These are just a few of the questions you will encounter when you adopt a stray dog. As the one who found the dog, you basically have two options. Take care of the dog and look for its owner, find a good home for the dog, or be the dog’s owner.
 The most crucial problem with stray dogs is the possible allergy they might have. In this situation, you have to know the proper dog care in order to keep the dog healthy. Here are some helpful tips to get you started. - Don’t make haste and rush the dog immediately to the veterinarian without verifying first if it has allergies. Check for symptoms related to allergic reactions such as skin rashes and breathing problems. Some allergies are seasonal like a flea season. Though only seasonal, it merits your attention still.
- If you do see symptoms conclusive of a possible allergic reaction, then this is the time to have the dog checked out by a good veterinarian.
- After checking the dog, the veterinarian will give you a series of instructions regarding allergy prevention and control. Make sure you follow these carefully.
- The most important dog care tip you should never forget is prevention. If the dog is allergic, make sure you don’t expose them to the allergens. Do strengthen your dog’s immune system, too.
Dogs can be the best companion you have with you. It will protect you regardless of what care you give it as long as it identifies you as its owner or master. Think of this instinctive gesture and do the same for your dogs. Keep it healthy and safe by providing it with the right shelter and feeding it the right food. Your dog will reward you with love and affection which is a lot more than you could ever ask for.
