Having upper lip hair growth is as common as having scalp hairs. However, due to hormonal reasons, some women have thick dark upper lip hairs. Having a moustache on and stepping out of your house can be a nightmare for any women.
Opting for the thread or wax seems the obvious choice to get rid of these unwanted hairs. But what if you don’t have the time to go to a salon or you are just too lazy to step out. Wouldn't it be great if you could remove these hairs at home and at no cost?
There has been a long ongoing controversy about whether fruit juices are healthy or not. Most people consider them to be a great option to complete their daily fruit requirement since they are much easier to consume.
Lots of people replace soda and carbonated drinks with fruit juices thinking that they are moving towards an healthier option. There are even detox diets which claim to help you lose weight by just drinking fruit juices. They might help you in the short run but the fact is there is not much difference between a tall glass of fruit juice and a bottle of any carbonated drink minus the fizz.
This royal city is the second largest city after Jaipur in Rajasthan. Known as the “Gateway to Thar” or the “Blue city” it features various forts, temples, and other tourist attractions.
If I’ll be honest I have a weird connection to the state of Rajasthan. In the past two years I have been to Rajasthan three times and to a different city each time, but every single time I look forward even more eagerly to visiting it. The place has such a rich culture whether it’s the food, the clothes, the palaces or the forts everything is just a treat to watch.
If you are one of those who keeps a tab on the trending skincare routines and products you must have heard these two terms K-Beauty and J-beauty a number of times by now. Past few years have been all about the K or Korean beauty regimens. Starting from 2017 the Asians took over the skincare world with slimy wet sheet masks becoming the need of the hour. Honestly, even I love them!!
These Asian skincare trends are not going to disappear like most other trends, they are here to stay!! K-beauty with its Sheet masks, essences, serums, and the 10-step skin regime was the talk of the town and had its focus on exotic ingredients. But 2018 brought with a new counterpart the J-Beauty and it has been slowly making it’s way to the mainstream stores both online and offline.
Almost every food that we buy from a supermarket or grocery store or even a restaurant is packed with preservatives, artificial colors and flavors, and many other additives.

Working out is great for your health and body. Whether you prefer going to the gym or for a run outside, working out can give your skin the healthy glow effortlessly, for which you put in so much money and visit the salon every month.
I have seen a lot of women coming to the gym with open hairs and loads of makeup on their face and believe me that’s the worst thing to do to your skin and makeup products. First of all, nothing is going to stay on once you start sweating, so what’s the point in wasting all that makeup. Secondly, I simply fail to understand- how the hell are they able to work out like this!!! Ladies just let your skin breathe while you workout.
There is a lot of confusion regarding whether or not stretching before and after exercising is required.
The other day I met a woman outside an Ayurveda centre (I was there to get a head massage) and while waiting for the cab we started chatting. She told me she was there to get treatment for her nerves. As we started talking further she told me that she was a fitness freak and used to lift really heavy weights without stretching and suffered from some nerve damage issues because of that.
Coffee is one of the most popular beverages in the world. Even in India where tea is almost a staple drink in most houses, coffee has its own special place. For some people, their day does not start without their morning cup of coffee.
Coffee has been known to boost energy levels and increase attention and focus. This is no more a myth, even research has proven that coffee can have some serious health benefits.
A few days back I ordered a nail paint by Sugar. Now, I have been seeing a lot of sugar products online on Amazon, Nykaa, etc. and even in malls on many outlets. Just a few months back I haven’t even heard of this brand and now it’s everywhere. This Mumbai based brand is growing fast and is being loved by its customers because of the quality of products.
Intermittent fasting is one of the most popular trends in the Health and Fitness Industry. Often referred to as a diet, intermittent fasting is actually an eating pattern which became popular in the UK in 2012 with the BBC2 television documentary Eat, Fast, and Live Longer.
Gradually with the help of books and internet, the Intermittent Fasting wave has spread across the world. It has become a trend even in the United States’ Silicon Valley.
With summer on its full glory, heavy makeup takes a backseat, especially during the day. You want to look fresh and natural and opting for lighter products makes sense. If dabbing on lipsticks is too much for you, try using a lip tint instead.
Lip tints or lip stains can give your lips a natural delicate color, which makes your lips look beautiful and hydrated at the same time. Its lighter than lipsticks, so you can easily glide this on anytime anywhere just like a lip balm.
Breakfast is not just the first meal of the day but the most important one too. We Indians are lucky to have a huge variety of options available to include in our breakfast. But sadly we are either feasting on buttery paranthas or eating processed cereals such as cornflakes. They are obviously not going to help you stay healthy in the long run.
These 5 innovative breakfast recipes that I am going to give you have been a part of my life since the past 3 years and have been recommended by dieticians and nutritionists themselves. So, forget repeating the same old thing daily for your breakfast and dig into some mouth-watering healthy food.
This is the first time that I tried on a sheet mask and since I keep sharing a lot of skincare and beauty tips, it made sense to share this experience as well with my readers. First of all, I have been really fascinated by sheet masks, with so many celebrities using them I was curious to know what all the hype is about. So, I ordered a set of 5 sheet masks by The FaceShop from Amazon. I have dry skin so I went for the Hydration sheet masks combo, but they have a huge collection of masks for different skin problems made from a gazillion different ingredients.
Metabolism is often confused with the term metabolic rate in the health and fitness world. Metabolism includes all the chemical reactions that take place in our body which keep us alive and functioning whereas the metabolic rate is the number of calories our body burns even when it is at rest.
Most people who seek out ways to lose weight know that improved metabolism can end their cycle of never-ending diets followed by weight gain. The higher your metabolism the more calories you burn and the easier it is to lose weight and avoid putting it on again. Having a high metabolism not just helps you lose weight but it makes you feel good about your body overall, you are more energetic both mentally and physically. However, the speed of metabolism depends on a variety of factors, including age, sex, body fat, muscle mass, activity level, and genetics. Men tend to burn more calories than women, even while resting. And for most people, metabolism slows steadily after the age of 40. Some estimates suggest that it actually slows down by 5 percent every decade after your 40th birthday.
Each one of us wants to look as good as possible in the shortest possible time. These tricks will help you look beautiful head to toe in no time. Just by using a few products differently or by using simple DIYs you can drastically change your beauty game.
According to WHO’s 2018 report over 300 million people worldwide suffer from mental health issues. Mental health is probably one of the most ignored health issue in India. With a population of 1.2 billion India has slightly more than just 43 Government-run mental Institutions.
When it comes to countries, India is the most depressed country in the world, according to the World Health Organisation, followed by China and the USA. India, China, and the US are the most affected countries by anxiety, schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder.
Even with such shocking results, depression is still a stigma in the Indian Society. India is on the verge of a mental health crisis but the attitude of most Indians towards this issue isn’t helping much. The West has started taking it seriously there are counsellors at schools, colleges, offices, etc. but here in India we still link mental illness with black magic, demonic possessions, etc.

This is a well-known fact that reducing carb intake can lead to weight loss. A low-carb diet can give faster results than a low-fat diet and may even help to maintain weight loss.
The “DIRECT” study compared low-carb, low-fat, and Mediterranean-style diets and found that after 2 years, weight loss and maintenance were better for low-carb and Mediterranean-style diets as compared to low-fat diets. (1)
Even though going on a low or no carb diet seems obvious, it’s not that easy. A low carb diet can make you go nuts because your body depends on carbs as the main energy source. However, another approach which is popular among athletes is carb cycling. This gives you the benefits of a low carb diet and on the other hand, it also lets you feed your body with high carbs on few days.
