A foundation hack (DIY)

I viewed this video (link) and tried it and hey it works :) :) Apply a moisturiser before applying your foundation so as to avoid dry and cakey patches.  Then go and sit in an air conditioned environment for almost 8 hours and bam...what do you see...dry patches on the forehead and the corners of your mouth.Sigh... And then came this 'foundation hack'!!!! Add a drop of oil (almond, jojoba or grapeseed) to liquid or cream foundation and apply it on your face. The foundation glides smoothly and your face feels and looks moisturised the entire day. No more of those shabby lines on the corners of your mouth or dry patches on your skin. I tested this with normal foundation and long lasting foundation and the 'hack' worked on both. P.S: I used almond oil and I did moisturise my face before applying foundation.

A home remedy for cracked heels

This a a very simple, pocket friendly yet effective home remedy for cracked heels. And the protagonists are: Mix a teaspoon of glycerin with two teaspoons of rose water and apply to the heels of our foot and the entire foot ,immediately after a bath.  The result is visible in three or four days. Soft and beautiful feet is yours :) :) My mom's friend uses this concoction all over her body and she swears that she has less wrinkles because of this. Glycerin and rose water is available in the bakalas or supermarkets. Glycerin is available in pharmacies as well. So go ahead, give this a try before you purchase that expensive foot creme.
