Challenge 15 of the 31 Day Nail art challenge is to do a delicate print!Raksha Bandhan is coming soon and I wanted to do an easier nail art for it (yes! I’m planning to do a difficult version too :P) So here is my Raksha Bandhan stamping nail art!

This nail art is done using Konad stamping kit It’s so fun!!!!!

Things you need:

1. Revlon Icy Violet nail polish.

2. Konad stamping kit.

3. Konad special polish white.

4. Konad stamping plate no. m15

5. Lakme color crush nail polish 26.

6. Aspeta top coat.

7. Ranara base coat.

Lets begin!

Start with a base coat to protect your natural nails.

Step One: Paint your nails with two coats of Revlon icy violet nail polish. Allow it to dry.

Step Two: Using the Konad stamping kit, Stamp the rakhi design on your nail. If you don’t know how to use the kit read my post about konad stamping kits. Try to stamp the design at the center of each nail.

Step Three: Do a french tip using the Lakme white nail polish and allow it to dry.

Step Four: Finish with a top coat to seal in the design!

Done! Haha! Yeah that’s the fun of doing nail arts with a stamping kit! No work for such a great design

Do come back for another Raksha Bandhan nail art if you think this is too easy for you

The festival of colours is almost here!!Lets prepare for a fun filled and safe holi Here are some do’s and dont’s..

When?

27^th March 2013

What to wear?

The traditional white kurti and leggings is the best..but you can always go for any old pair of clothes..Girls please wear an inner if you prefer to wear white kurti or t-shirt(you may be splashed with lots of water and we don’t want to get into an embarrassing situation..do we?)

Things you need:

1. Gulal and other colours.

2. Water balloons & water guns

You can also opt for the holi combos available here:

Hair care:

How can I protect my hair from harsh chemicals?

Oil your hair properly, or you’ll end up with badly damaged hair! You can use from a variety of oils like coconut oil, mustard oil, almond oil, awla oil, etc ..

How do I get rid of holi colours from my hair?

Wash your hair with a mild shampoo.. preferably a herbal shampoo. Use a conditioner..You cannot get rid of the colours in a single wash so try this, Apply some curd on your hair after a single wash. Mix curd and lemon juice and apply properly. Leave for 45 minutes. Wash with a mild shampoo. Use a good quality hair serum (excessive washing makes hair dry and brittle, a hair serum will really help! Trust me!)

Skin care:

Moisturiser is a must before you step out of the house on holi!

How to remove holi colours from skin?

First of all try to wipe off colours on the skin using a dry waste cloth.(some colours stick to skin when mixed with water)DO NOT RUB! Then take a cold water bath using a mild soap or shower gel. Moisturise your skin immediately after bathing..Do not have a facial or use facial bleach at least for a week after holi!

Other Tips:

Cut your nails short! Do not cut your cuticles ever (especially not before holi) or you will increase the chances of getting an infection.

Don’t forget to drink water..Yes in midst of all the fun we forget to hydrate ourselves causing more damage to our skin!

Do not wear contact lenses.

WISH YOU ALL A COLOURFUL AND SAFE HOLI
