Many a women are just dying to know the secret fountain of youth. Some are still painstakingly trying to unmask the ‘mystery’ of pimples. Others are still in the ‘quandary’ on whether or not they will take gluthathione shots or not.

If you’d ask me, the answer is plain and simple - We are what we eat. All of the things that are happening to your body, skin and eyes, are actually a manifestation of what sort of foods (garbage maybe) we put in your mouth.

Cleanliness = Godliness

Water for beauty...

Food for thought - the more we eat meat, the more we are predisposed to age. Meat may be rich in protein, that may be good for the hair and nails (keratin), however, the over indulgence of this type of foods can actually damage our cells - there are several free radicals in a slab of meat. Option is to take in more vegetables and fish in our diet. AND LOADS OF WATER. I believe I can drink half of the contents of the 5Gallon purified water. Believe you me, water is STILL the best beauty tip anyone can give you - and I guarantee that the effects of such are immediate.

Good H2O will do the trick. :-)
Contrary to what people may say, carbohydrates may be bad for you if your activities after downing yourself with a whole loaf of bread may actually be just sleeping or sitting and doing nothing - or perhaps gravely concentrating on the computer to do reports (or GAMES in the internet (!!!)) - right, reports…Alas, carbs can be stuck in your waistline, and perhaps give you that SPARE TIRE you don’t really need. And by that I meant that big blob in the middle of your body (not a good sight I swear!).

Try in as much to do proper breathing. You would be surprised to know, that not a lot of people know to breathe properly! If at all, the right way is to breathe in through our noses, and breathe out through our noses as well. This is the correct way of balancing out our metabolism - and others, after having tried this proper breathing, can see how much they sweat and have lost most of their weight!

In a nutshell, the breathing is also a form of meditation, prayer and quieting the mind. And therefore, can also de-clutter your brain for thinking of things that are not necessary. Oh, and ditch the stick too.

Smoking makes you ugly and OH! it is also bad for your health! DUH!?
I dont know why there are still some women who still smoke packs of Marlboro in a day. You only look older in the process. I have had my share of that kind of lifestyle - and the merits of a smoke-free lifestyle are just bliss.

So the secret to having that perfect skin and body? Now you know!

Who is the fairest....

They say that our hair is the crowning glory, and I believe it to be 90% true, since most of the time, we get a cut that is 'heaven' and we suddenly become a 'boy magnet'... Only because glorious hair is next to being vavavoom hot! :-) (it complements our features)

Believe you me when I say that thin, falling hair is not a good sight. Much more, dry and damaged hair. It speaks so much about you. Not taking care of your hair can also be a sign that you care less about yourself. Making yourself look good by taking care of your hair is a simple way to see if a person takes health and wellness seriously ♥

L'Oreal Powerdose

Introducing this tiny vial of power! Loreal Powerdose is one serum that all women will consider a 'friend'. I have had my hair digitally permed, (wow high-tech!) dyed (several times), blow dried, and still my hair can withstand more hair stress, because of this tiny stress buster! Since I have long hair, I usually finish up 4 to 5 vials. And the service comes with scalp massage (the best!) too.

What I love most about it is my hair gets to have a 'time out' from all the stress I put her through. And wow! Did you know that this Repair B powerdose has a sister???

Black, brown red or blue? Which one is you?

Gotta try this one too! I have been told about its sister, and I was equally impressed by this little missy!

I just got a haircut from Ms. Pin Antonio and she suggested to have my hair treated with some hair-care color intense serum. I loved that inspite my 'LV brown' new dye, it had a lot of luster and softness.

This one is available in some of our pamper stations only (Mandaluyong, San Juan and Pasig has it). Inquire at 502-7332 or 09178120479 for more details ♥

Many of Celebrity Nails clients are just so happy to know that our choices of imported nail polish brands are quite superb! We have our regular "Orly, OPI and Essie also now including Sally Hansen" brands... yes, these are our 'regular' choice of polish with no extra cost when you have services done with us...

But wait, we do have praises for rising east and western picks!

Tony Moly from Korea
Now presenting Tony Moly from Korea Nail Lacquer. Its one of those Nail Polish brands I have personally tried applying on myself and definitely has a 'flat' and nice finish.

It dries quickly and has good color choices! And, it lasts for days when you most need it.

Another rising Polish to try is Yves Rocher... made in France. A review from Real Style Network says "THE VERDICT: We love that this lacquer delivers a strong finish with just a single coat — great for times... read more...

Why I stick to what I claim?

Honestly, don't take my word for it, just go ahead and try these new ones. I have done nails and trained several nail specialists on proper polish application as well as nail art and other nails spa services, and I have never been so impressed by these two.

I am not saying other imported brands with much more expensive prices are not to be tried. What I'm saying is, whenever I make a review, I rarely look at the price - I look at the quality.

THOUGHTS to ponder on Nail Health:

DO NOT BELIEVE in the marketing hype of other brands saying "we are safer" we have less or none of the following chemicals used, etc etc., my dears, I have NEVER encountered a polish brand that does not make my nail plate turn yellow after 10 days of use. Because all nail polish brands are bound to make your nails calcify and turn yellow, regardless of what super special chemicals they use. So please refrain from saying 'this polish is safer'...

The better way to say it is the application is better, the complete finish looks "polished" enough and your polish doesn't chip off that easily. Otherwise, ALWAYS remove your polish when the time it is no longer needed. Chipped nails are never impressive-looking... and it also looks 'cheap'.

Nail Tip:

To avoid yellowish nails due to polish applied, please don't let the nail polish stay on your fingers nails for more than ten (10) days. If there is a yellowish coloring already building up, get Calamansi or Lemon slices and rub over nail plate. The alkali of the citrus fruits when applied on the nail can neutralize the calcification process. Make sure to do this within 15 minutes of slicing the fruits, to avoid making the alkali turn into acid - yes this happens :-) (this is my geeky side speaking again).

Well manicured nails with just the right shade of polish actually completes the entire look of any lady. And that's why its so important to decide on which one will look smashinG! ♥
