The one thing that I and I am sure everyone of you hates about summer, is the excessive hair sweating that makes those beautiful tresses you adore, sticky and unbearable to such an extent that you wish you were bald. Although in India and Pakistan sweating in summers is really hard to avoid because of the scorching heat, yet we can minimize it to some extent with these simple tips.

Get your hair done in a comfortable and easy to maintain style, don’t leave them open, as the sweating will make them look tangled and messy, tie your hair in a nice and stylish up do, bun, ponytail or braid to keep them clean and tidy.

Wash your hair daily with a mild herbal shampoo to avoid dirt and sweat settling on the scalp, which leads to further sweating, dandruff and hair breakage.

Drink loads and loads of water in summer to make your body cleanse itself from within. In this way less toxins, which are the main cause of odor and sweating, are produced.

Minimize your use of hair products such as gels, moose and other products to keep your hair naturally oil-free and clean and increase the use of body sprays and deodorants.

Get yourself a Chinese hand fan, so that when the weather is warm, or while going outside, you can make use of your little handy fan to stay away from excessive sweating.

Everybody in this world wants to look beautiful. This desire becomes more prominent especially if there is some special occasion or party. Researches say that a nice make up boosts up the confidence of a person in the social arena. So, not only on physical level, the art of make up has it charm on psychological level also.

Beautiful makeover starts with the right foundation. Unless you are blessed with naturally flawless skin, you must wear a foundation that will allow you to create the illusion of having flawless skin. Your foundation must fit like a second skin.

The perfect makeover is similar to a work of art. Just like the artist who primes his canvas to mask the imperfections, we also need to do the same – with foundation. The ideal foundation must have full coverage but should not leave your skin looking pink, orange, ashy or two-toned. It must be totally natural-looking.

The only color on the face should come from blush, eye shadow, lipstick, lip gloss, mascara or eye liner. Foundation should be used as a “primer” to create the canvas, not to add color!

If you need to conceal severe skin blemishes such as marks, acne, vitiligo or rosacea, then you need to use maximum coverage camouflage concealer. You can easily cover up tattoos using this camouflage makeup as well. This too needs to be yellow based to ensure a natural-looking, flawless finish.

When you have created the look of having flawless-looking skin, you can then explore your creativity with your cheek, lip and especially your eye colors.
