Tips for Weight Gain

 
• Always start with a healthy breakfast.  
•  Eat more calories: eat larger portions and eat at least five meals a day.
•  Keep your mind healthy and stay away from stress.
• Your actual caloric requirement can differ depending on your height, weight, activity level and your body's metabolic rate.
• Increase the intake of dairy products like milk and cheese. (But do not over eat) also make smart choices: For example, choose dairy products, fish and meat over bread. Choose eggs over vegetables. Eat foods with high protein content such as beans, pulses and peas, and foods with high starch content such as potatoes, rice.
• Eat frequently, Snack a lot: Consume a lot of high-calorie snacks (not junk food) such as cheese sticks, milk shakes, muffins, dried fruits, yogurt and breakfast bars.
• For a fast metabolism. The only way to get around this burn-everything-you-eat metabolism is to eat more than your system has the capacity to burn.

For the extreme cases

After over four years with this problem (underweight), I would recommend a visit to a doctor. My doctor provided me with Tres-Orix, which is well known and seems to work for many people. It has done wonders for me in the last two weeks. I have already gained more than 2 kgs and my appetite is superb.

How To Determine your face Shape.

When you know your face shape you can choose your most flattering hairstyles, hats, eyeglasses, sunglasses and earrings.

Determining Your Face Shape

There are a few approaches to this. You will need...

• A mirror large enough to see your whole face
• It may help to have a photo of your face. Pull your hair back away from your face and make sure the photo is taken square-on to your face, so you can see both sides. If you're taking the photo yourself, for example with a cell phone camera, make sure the camera is far enough away that you don't get a distorted, fish-eye effect!
• Or, it may help to draw the outline of your face, with your hair held away from your face, on the mirror (make sure whatever you use -- for example, whiteboard marker, eye-liner pencil, lipstick -- will wipe off later!

Knowing the correct shape of your face will help you find a style that will best compliment your features.

  

 Square:  A strong jaw line is common with a square face. The cheekbone, brow bone, and jaw usually have a similar length and width

  Rectangle:  An elongated square face.

  Round:  The length and width of face is similar and the middle portion is wider than the forehead and jaw line creating the round appearance.

  Oblong aka a Long Face:  This is when cheekbone and brow bone are similar in width but the length of the face is noticeably longer.

  Oval:  Considered the most appealing of facial shapes because the jaw line is more narrow then the temples creating soft features. If you have an oval face shape consider yourself lucky, you can wear almost any hair style.

  Diamond:  This is when your cheekbones are noticeably wider than your Brow bone and jaw line, resulting in a narrow forehead and jaw line.

  Triangle (Pear Shaped):  When the forehead is very narrow with a wide jaw and chin line.

  Inverted Triangle (Heart Shaped):  A wider forehead and a narrow jaw and chin line.

“If the wrong style is created for the wrong face shape, the result is a disaster.”

 It's all about putting the perfect frame around a person's face to balance and bring perspective to the overall shape. It is very important for you to understand face shape suitability it will help you to understand what does and does not work for you and why. There is a general rule that applies to face shape balancing and it is that you should try to achieve an oval shape, which is the most perfect and pleasing shape to the human eye.

Hairstyle that suit your face shape. 

1. For a round shape face keep in mind to minimize roundness by creating less volume around the face.

2. A square shape face want to draw attention away from your angular jaw. Go with texture hairstyles such as choppy ends and lots of curls.

3. An oval face shape can wear just about any hairstyle, so just have fun with your hair and accentuate some of your best face features.

4. For long oblong face shapes remember one thing, add width. You want full hairstyles and haircuts that has lots of volume.

5. The heart shape face has that pointy chin that seems to draw all the attention. So to take away from that, bring out your eyes by wear side-swept bangs.

DIY: TWEEZING

 How to Keep Your Brows Looking Great Every Day of the Year.

Shaping Your Brows

The shape of your brow should follow the natural line of your brow bone. The arch should be highest at the outer corner of the pupil. To determine where the brow should begin, place a pencil straight up from the side of the nostril. To determine where it should end, hold the pencil diagonally against the outer corner of the eye pointing up to the brow bone. Brow should extend slightly beyond the eye at which point it should taper slightly down. 

Easy Steps To Accurate Tweezing

• Use good tweezers.
• Make sure you are in good even light.
•  Brush hair in the direction of hair growth.
•  Isolate the hair you are about to tweeze.
• Pull the hairs in the direction of growth.
•  Pull one hair at a time.
• Tweezing after a bath or shower is easier when the skin is warm.
• For ladies, avoid plucking just before a period as more pain or discomfort may be felt at this time.
• Pull gently and smoothly. 

Not Sure How Much to Tweeze?

Be sure to step back from your mirror and check your brows periodically. Tweeze a few hairs from one brow and then the other so they remain symmetrical. Remember that it's better to tweeze too little than too much. 

Do's and Don'ts

* Do tweeze in the direction of hair growth.

* Do open your pores with a hot washcloth to make tweezing easier. 

* Do use a make-up concealer to draw your desired brow shape, then tweeze the hairs that fall below the line.
* Don't use creams or moisturizers that can cause the tweezers to slip.
* Don't tweeze nose hairs or hairs growing out of moles.
