04 NovPerfectly Manicured Nails For Brides

Are you going to have perfectly manicured nails in your close-up photos holding your groom’s hand, showing off your new wedding band? You should!

Many new brides can’t wait for the day trip with their maids/matrons of honor and the bridesmaids and do the whole beauty salon scene – hair, nails, feet, facials. But depending on where you live, that may cost a fortune.

And unless you get your nails done with an acrylic or gel overlay on a consistent basis and you’re used to long or even active length nails, you may want to skip the expense of the nail tips at the salon and invite your ladies over for an afternoon of home manicures.

Here’s your basic manicure kit to get those perfectly manicured nails. These items can be found at just about any department store or beauty supply store like Sally’s Beauty Supply, if you don’t already have them at home.

Non-acetone polish remover
Cotton balls or Gauze pads (I actually prefer the gauze squares to cotton balls)
Cuticle oil with vitamin E
Cuticle sticks/pushers (which can also be used to remove polish from the skin)
Emery board/nail shaper
Nail Buffer Block
Clear base/top coat
Nail polish/lacquer in your choice of colors
Tip ~ Use a nail lacquer instead of a nail polish. Lacquers last twice as long and resist chipping and wear better than an ordinary Polish.

# Nail polish dryer fan

Tip ~ Battery operated nail polish dryers are very inexpensive and a great investment for the home manicurist. Just put your fingers under the dryer for 60 seconds between each coat and you’ll be sure not to smudge the polish.

Now on with the manicure!

If you already have nail polish on, use a non-acetone polish remover and either cotton balls or gauze pads to remove the polish.
Wash your hands in lukewarm water with a mild soap then dry completely with a soft towel.
Massage cuticles with cuticle oil to soften and moisturize.
Use a wooden cuticle stick and gently push cuticles back – do not cut the cuticles but simply push them back away from the nail bed. Wipe excess cuticle oil off your nails.
Wash your hands again with warm soapy water to remove the oils, and dry thoroughly.
Use the emery board to trim and shape your nails, then buff smooth with the buffer.
For the perfect manicured nail look, apply a base coat first. Let dry for at least 60 seconds before applying the first color coat of polish.
Apply two coats of color polish, drying for at least 60 seconds between each coat.
Use a clear topcoat to prevent chipping and wear to the color.
Finish with either a finishing spray or OPI Drip Dry oil to speed up the drying process followed by at least a final 60 to 90 seconds under the dryer or longer.

Quick fixes: Keep your perfectly manicured nails while fixing any mistakes to your manicure, like polish on the skin around your nail, by dipping a wooden cuticle stick in nail polish remover then gently rubbing the skin until the polish is removed.

You can even do this carefully as you polish, provided you don’t miss and swipe the cuticle stick across the polished nail!

You can also buy purchase a nail polish corrector pen which uses the same process of gently rubbing the skin until the polish is removed.

I would advise against using any type of cotton swab on a fresh manicure as you might end up with cotton pieces stuck to your skin or fresh nail polish.

Suggestions:
Perfectly manicured nails look best with nail lacquers. The best nail lacquers I’ve found on the market are OPI and China Glaze, available at most beauty supply stores like Sally’s and also on eBay, where I’ve actually gotten my best deals.

OPI has a bridal line called ” Fairytale Bride SoftShades by OPI” which has an array of beautiful soft shades to compliment almost any bride’s colors.

China Glaze’s Romantique line is also full of lovely bridal colors.

17 AugNLP & Mental Health: Can NLP help combat depression?

According to researchers mental health problems such as depression and anxiety are on the rise. Over 18.8 million American adults suffer from depression or the equivalent of 9.5% of the adult population in the US.

People are looking for answers and increasingly people are turning towards alternative approaches to try to combat depression.

NLP or Neuro Linguisitc Programming is very effective for helping people change their thoughts, feelings and improve their emotional baseline – the feelings they have on a consistent basis.

NLP can help people who suffer from depression, yet there isn’t a one stop magical cure in most cases. The first thing to do before using NLP for mental health issues is seek professional medical advice.

What I’m what I’m saying here does not represent professional medical advice.

But with that said, how can NLP help you if you do suffer from depression?

Well one of the big things NLP is very good at is helping you change your thoughts.

In NLP we presume that all thoughts, feelings and actions can be regarded as a behavior. So if you expand this idea, in NLP terms we could describe somebody who has depression, with respect, as doing the behavior called depression. By that I mean is that they have certain habitual thoughts and feelings that they experience that produce of depression.

Through specific NLP techniques and processes anyone can learn how to influence their thoughts and feelings. A good place to get an overview of the core techniques of NLP is to purchase Dr. Richard Bandler’s book, “Get The Life You Want”.

With the help of an expert NLP Practitioner or trainer, you can learn to retrain and reeducate your mind and body so that you can change your habitual thoughts and feelings that previously lead you to feeling bad or down.

The process will likely take some time, but millions of people around the world have use the technology of NLP to help change their lives for the better.

NLP isn’t a magic cure, but it can help create choices and options to dealing and transforming habitual thoughts and feelings that previously you weren’t aware of.

The bottom line is no one isn’t required to feel bad indefinitely, nor should they have to.

The technology of NLP may help you regain control and enable you to re-train your mind and body to respond more in the ways you want.

05 MayMaking Money Online through Webinars Part 1

Webinars  have become very popular over the past few years. Gotomeeting is one of the leading webinar companies online and their service allows you to have up to 1,000 people all over the world, on a webinar at the same time. A lot of beginners and even successful business owners have found that it’s very lucrative to start bringing their businesses online and using all of the different tools that the internet provides to get more exposure to their business.

There are few different ways to use webinars to make more money online. I’m about to show you a few ways that I found very effective since I’ve started using them.

One of the first and probably the most profitable ways to use webinars to make money online is by giving free webinars on a consistent basis to people that join your email list. By doing free webinars, you’ll allow people to trust you more and learn about your product or service.

You’ll also allow people to see your expertise and learn from you without having  to buy anything from you upfront. What this does is it allows your viewers to get comfortable with you and it also allows you to build trust with your future customers. Anything you could do to give advise, show your expertise, share your knowledge and give useful tips to people while they’re watching on their screen from anywhere in the world, all of these will help you gain credibility in the eyes of the viewer. This is why webinars are so powerful and why they’ll help you make more money online.

A few tips and tricks to help you make your webinars even better is creating a structure that makes the viewer stay interested. There’s so much going on in the internet today that most people, even if they get on the webinar, they don’t stay on until the end or they simply lose interest because they’re bored or they wanna check their email or a list of hundred different things that they could possibly do on the internet.

So it is very important to keep your webinars entertaining, fun and most importantly, educational. So you want to share knowledge with your webinar viewers. And you also want to let them know that they should expect a great surprise if they stay on until the end. By telling your webinar viewers that there’ll be a surprise at the end of the webinar, they’ll going to be more excited to stay in the webinar til the end just to find out what that surprise is gonna be. And of course, when you’re doing any webinar, it’s very important that you have a good sales message, and that you give everyone that’s on the webinar a special discount or a special deal or a bonus for buying your product or service at the end of the webinar.
