But I am now considering the endless possibilities of it.

There is two ways to use when doing this method.

Which is applied over the nail.
So it takes a lot of worry and hassle and end result is easier
This image is just one example of what is available
There is many different ways and varieties to suit your own style

But I want to discuss the other way of using lace for nail art.
The do it yourself on your nails method

Pampering your hands

Your hands go through lots of things. we don't even think about it. But we use it everyday. For many it is  a  fact that we forget to take care of our hands. We take extra care of making sure our face looks young and youthful. But many can tell age by looking at hands. So. are you taking extra time looking after your hands? 


Cleansing. 
Make sure to clean them properly. Use warm to hot water, but never scolding hot. Remember too hot water remove natural oils. We don't want that. Use an antibacterial soap. That way we get rid of germs and bacteria. Rub your hands together and make sure to clean your hands and nails properly.

Moisturise.
 Use a cream or lotion that is made for hands. Specifically for hands. 
Ladies nothing wrong with a manicure every once in a while. Even if you don't like your nails painted. Then can ask for ca clear polish. As it protect your nails. Or do it yourself.

Do not ever use your nails as a tool. They will break and you don't want that.

Also its a good idea to keep a santizer with you for those moments you wish you had it with you.
Avoid harsh chemicals when working with your hands. Wear gloves when cleaning around the house. It is a good idea to moisturise and then use gloves. The end result is soft hands that looks younger.

Remember your hands also show your age. Just like your face and neck. So good to start doing what is good for them.


Hope this helps and your hands feel and look great.

Get rid of cracked dry heels naturally

We tend to take care of our faces, hands and legs.  
But do we take care of our feet? If you were to remove your shoes right now? How would you feel? How would it look? Would you feel like hiding it? 
Or would you feel to show your feet to those who are around?


If you dry cracked heels. Then you probably don't know if you should remove your shoes.
Not even mentioning how painful that can be.
Well today I am sharing two home remedies on how to deal with dry cracked heels.

Rose water and glycerin
Combined it makes skin soft and moistures

Method
First wash your feet with warm water.
Then apply 3 table spoons of glycerin mixed with 1 tablespoon rose water to the areas on your feet that is dry.

Lemon foot soak
When dealing with dry heels. Regular soap may dry your skin, making it much worse.
Try lemon juice to deal with it.
Lemon is rich in vitamin C. Also is a natural astringent.

Method
Add half a cup of lemon juice to a bucket or foot bath
Add warm water.
Soak your feet for 10 minutes.

Personal opinion.
But I had this problem.
I have found that not walking with out shoes may help.
Do not walk around in your home without any shoes.
Wear shoes that keeps your feet and heels covered.
Also it is a great idea to drink lots of fluids.

To keep feet soft and heels moisturized good idea to apply Vaseline just to make sure it stays soft
Hope this helps everyone

Getting rid of scars effectively the natural way

For someone who have scars, its all they see when looking in the mirror. They try to hide it. But what if today I can tell what will help to remove that scars. Would you be interested? I know I would.



Lavender oil.
Directly massage on the scars to help fade into skin. Massage to help absorption.

Vitamin K
Apply it as a cream onto the scars. You may start to see results in as small a time as a few weeks. Use twice daily. Depending on severity of scars it may take months.

Extra 100% virgin olive oil.
Applying olive oil twice daily on scars you should see scars start to fade within a week. It works for stretch marks too.

Vitamin E  
From punctured gel caps. Rub the oil into scars.

Raw honey (organic).
When rubbing onto scars twice a day scars should fade, because of the anti bacterial properties of honey. It isn't recommended for oily skin.

So all these are things you can do at home, with the benefit of using something that will work. Serious scars may take persistence and with the consistent effort it should give good results too. 

This is just a few methods that can be used. It is effective but depending on the age of the scars it may need more time to heal.
