If you have given birth to a baby girl you should start looking after her beauty right from the time she is in her cradle, for the foundation of beauty is laid in childhood itself. Heredity gives a child the colour of her skin, the basic bone structure and the texture of her hair but the rest depends upon careful nurturing.
If your baby is born with dark fuzzy hair on her face, arms and legs, take 2 tablespoons of gram flour or besan, add a little turmeric powder and cream found on top of the boiled milk. Make into a loose paste and rub this paste gently on the baby’s body for a few minutes, then give her a bath. This will not only help remove the superfluous hair, but will also improve her complexion later on.

Following tips from our expert ensure a carefree winter for all those who dread it.
Skin
For itchy skin, add half a cup of vinegar to a bucket of water. Use it at the end of your bath.
Add a tablespoon of honey to your bath water. This also has a softening effect and relieves fatigue.
Add a handful of powdered milk to your bath water. This nourishes dry skin.
Make your own massage oil by mixing almond oil with sunflower oil and adding a few drops of rose or sandalwood oil. This leaves the body with a pleasant fragrance and is much better than using perfumed oils which are available in the market.

Beauty in the Seventies took a definitive turn. Some of the styles and trends of the 60’s carried over but the decade also spawned new trends.
HairIn the earlier years, many women kept their hair long and smooth with just enough body and volume to give it some bounce, but the late 70’s brought about copycats who were seeking to capture at least a piece of that ”Charlie’s Angels” magic. The Farrah (Fawcett) layered haircut became the ”in” hairstyle as women with cuts of varying lengths spawned angel wings. Of course the cut meant a slight change in the way that hair was styled gone were the juice can rollers in favor of slightly smaller versions or, better yet, the suddenly popular curling iron, which along with hair mousse became a must-have part of every woman’s beauty kit.

Crow’s feet, laugh lines, and wrinkles, oh my! It’s not what we want, but time and nature play a nasty trick on us and, as we age, fine lines and wrinkles begin to appear around our eyes, radiating outwards. These are commonly known as crow’s feet or worry lines. Besides getting older, our everyday lifestyle can aggravate the problem and cause premature aging to our skin.
Sun exposure, frequent squinting, smoking, and even sleeping on your face promote the formation of crows feet. Naturally, people who spend a great deal of time outdoors are at higher risk. Applying sunscreen, quitting smoking, and wearing sunglasses and hats are the key ways to avoid crows feet. Even if you’re already showing signs, it’s never too late to stop them from getting worse.

Angelina Jolie has revealed how she got her figure back after giving birth to twins.
The actress and husband Brad Pitt welcomed Knox and Vivienne into the world in July, but Jolie wasted no time in losing her baby weight.
Speaking at the New York premiere of Changeling, the 33-year-old remarked that she shed the pounds simply by being a mum.
“[Running] around with all the kids, and breastfeeding, which I think is part of your body’s natural way of losing weight,” she said.
Last year, Jolie claimed that a drop in weight was due to grief over the death of her mother.
