The Glowing Bride : Dos and Don'ts before your Wedding Day.




It is without any doubt that the Center of attraction of any wedding is the bride and every girl wants that she looks her best on her special day .
Preparation to look best starts long back even months before.

 To really glow as a bride you need to start taking care of yourself well before the D-day. 
Here is how …
Solah Shringar or the beautifying rituals, one for every part of her body, beginning from the top of her head to the tip of her toes, has been customary with brides since time immemorial. But since there is no magic wand, you need to plan your skin and hair care routine two months in advance. If you don’t know how to start consult a professional for a sitting to discuss how to go about it.



Helping Hands

Avoid nail polish on both hands and feet for at least four weeks before the wedding so that you can let your nails breathe as well as prevent them from becoming yellow. A regular manicure is a must. Apply almond oil onto the hands every night before sleeping and twice a week apply the following
1 melted candle, 4 tsp sesame oil, 4 tsp sandal oil, 2 tsp milk.
When this has mixed well in a saucepan, paint it on the hands with a broad dye brush and leave on until it solidifies be careful that you do not apply the wax on too hot otherwise you could end up burning yourself. Once it has solidified peel off the wax and feels your soft hands. If you are fond of long nails but if you have brittle nails, start to consume a tsp of gelatin every day with half a glass of water for two weeks.

Body beautiful

The body plays an important role and anointing the body with scented oils and clays for several days before the wedding was and is to some extent quite a common practice amongst brides. You could go in for regular body massages, which are both relaxing and rejuvenations for the body and mind. If you don’t have time to have a massage once a week than start to add ¼ cup of olive oil in your bucket of water and use as a last rinse after you have used soap. Most people do not realize the importance of the hidden parts or rather neglected parts … Breasts, buttocks backs and necks. Start to exfoliate these areas with a scrub made from powdered almond, walnuts and china clay, which has been mixed together with milk and sandalwood oil. Use a back brush for the back and scrub the buttocks, inner thighs, elbows and knees. This will smoothen out the skin and also prevent it from building up any dead surface skin.


Face Facts

The face just has to be absolutely perfect and rather than cover up those dark circles and pimples with make-up. Why not improve the condition of your skin naturally. Let me assure you that no amount of makeup will ever be able to replace the natural glow on a brides face and no amount of blusher can be substitute for a naturally blushing bride. Clean, tone and moisturize your skin regularly and above all know your skin type and then start any treatment. Never use what suits your best friend or your sister., for all skin types are different and must be treated differently.
Skin must be exfoliated regularly and the scrubbing must always be done in rotating movements but very gently. If you have under eye dark circles and continue to keep late nights I would suggest that you massage them with pure almond oil to which you have added an equal quantity of coconut oil and a few drops of lemon juice. Leave this on for about an hour and wipe off with a moist cotton wool pad that has been dipped in milk. This done every day for about two weeks will fade away the most stubborn of dark circles, However you cannot sleep in the wee hours of the morning and think that this treatment will still be effective. Increase your water intake to at least 10 glasses a day and also check to see that you are taking a plenty of greens in your diet.

There are some more universal tips everyone can use.


Be Gentle

Treat your skin with the gentleness it deserves. Wedding skincare isn't about beating your skin into shape, it's about being kind to your skin. Wash with a non-abrasive cleanser and make sure to moisturize after washing.

Watch out for the Elements

The sun can do a lot of damage to your skin. Make sure your lotion or moisturizer as well as the makeup you use on your face has a sunscreen in it. Skin care for wedding beauty will be a lot easier without having to fight against sun damage in addition to whatever else you are trying to correct by the wedding day.

Wear Gloves

When you are gardening, or doing dishes, or anything else where you might do damage to your hands or nails, wear a pair of gloves. Gardening gloves for gardening, and rubber gloves for doing dishes or other wet jobs. This will help your nails stay strong and your skin stay smooth up to your wedding day.

Saif Ali Khan and Kareeena Kapoor Getting Married this October.




The Bollywood wedding of the year would take place in October in Delhi and Mumbai. There will not be any ceremonies in Pataudi or Bhopal . 'Saifeena'- wedding of Saif Ali Khan and Kareeena Kapoor, would be a low-key affair with limited invitees said the groom's motherSharmila Tagore, here on Tuesday.

"D-day is on October, sometime. I am not at a liberty to disclose the date. You'd have to ask Saif," sharmila addressing to Media

She related the hype surrounding the wedding to happy family serial. "You'd be disappointed. No extravagant celebrations are planned. It would be a small family affair," she said. The restraint on celebrations is because the wedding would be held nearly a month after the first death anniversary of Saif's father - Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi.

Sharmila said Pataudi wasn't chosen as a venue because of security considerations.

Sources said that that the wedding may take place on October 16.

Sharmila was in Bhopal attending the board meeting of the royal waqf properties called the Auqaf-i-Shahi, of which her daughter Saba Sultan is the custodian.

What not to say to your fiance




As a newly affianced woman, you have doubtless received countless pieces of advice from your friends and relatives. This advice probably ranges the gamut from “The way to his heart is through his stomach” (given by well meaning aunties) to “Be sure to behave properly in front of him if you want to keep his interest” (given by well meaning grandmothers).

But it is the twenty first century, so you should have some practical advice on how to deal with your man. After all, you will be spending the rest of your lives together, so it is best to begin as you mean to get on.
You should never censor yourself in front of your man, but sometimes it is better to let some things go unsaid. Apart from the no brainers, like not comparing your fiancĂ© to your ex boyfriend, here are five things you should avoid saying to your guy — either to avoid a fight, preserve his ego, or save your own sanity.
"I really don't care — let us do whatever you want to do."
One thing guys wish that women would do on date night is Just. Freaking. Pick. Something. Do not worry about whether he will balk when you suggest a new foreign movie or roll his eyes if you say you want Italian food. You are as much a part of this relationship as he is, and trust me, he will love that you took the initiative to suggest something fun.
"Saif Ali Khan/ Robert Pattinson/ Imran Khan is soooooooo hot!"
No one loves man eye candy like I do, but if you go on and on about what a stud Hritik Raushan is, it will make your guy retreat into his man cocoon. No one — male or female — can compete with an airbrushed, professionally gym trained, designer clad superstar. Admire your favorite actor/ celebrity in private — and save the verbal praise for your guy when he cleans up nice for dinner.
"Does this make me look fat?"
We all know that no one wins if you ask him this.
"Do you think she's pretty?"
Unless he is always able to contort his face into a believable state of revulsion before you get to the last syllable of "pretty," he won't be able to give you an answer that won't send you into a rage. Listen, there are plenty of other hot women in the universe; you can't really expect him to say that Aishwarya Rai Bacchan "is not his type." Do not force the issue unless he is openly gawking at anything in a skirt or flirting with the waitress right in front of you. Then it might be time to reassess why you are in the relationship, not whether you measure up.
"What are you thinking?"
One of my guy friends summed his thoughts on this question nicely: "Trust us: You don't want to know." It's nice to retain some of your relationship's mystery, right? Also: Sometimes a blank stare is just a blank stare. Fill up your own mental canvas with something scintillating while he daydreams.
Are there any suggestions that you think I’ve missed out on?

How To Build Trust In A Relationship




Trust is the glue that binds lovers together; especially when they are faced with adversities. Trust has a way of keeping a couple united.  Mistrust often forces people to part ways in a situation of relationship crisis. Most often this creates chasms filled with doubts about one another.  Therefore, sense of security is the key to a happy and healthy relationship and it only comes to fruition by trusting each other completely.
Here’s how you can place the building blocks correctly and stay happy in a relationship, sans the frenzy of mistrust.  
Be honest and truthful to your mate
 Just a small lie is good enough to ruin a potentially beautiful relationship.  Saying you’re going to come home late as you have a meeting, office work, etc. and instead you go and play a game or two of poker with your friends could lead to disastrous repercussions once the wife finds out.  She wouldn’t care much for the lie that you’ve told, but it would dwindle the trust flame in your relationship as her mind would wander every time you decide to stay out late.  She may wonder what else you could be lying about and this could lead to her not trusting you.
Reliability
Make sure you stay true to the promises you make, be it big or small.  Reliability and trust go hand in hand.  You should stick to what you say. If you’ve told your husband that you’re going to do something at a particular time on a particular day, make sure you do it. Reliability is a major step in the building of a trust worthy relationship.
Set Boundaries
You should set boundaries with your loved ones, especially with those outside your marriage/relationship.  If boundaries or limits are not set, then jealousy plays a big hand in tearing couples apart. Make sure you make your loved one feel that he or she takes precedence over everyone else.     
Trust
Learn to trust your partner 100%. Do not crucify and accuse your loved one for cheating or betraying you unless you have evidence to support your claims.  Without proper proof, you’ll just create a dark cloud of mistrust that may prove very hard to get rid of.  You must take your spouse’s word for whatever she or he may tell you; have faith.
These are just a few of the ways which will help you build trust in your relationship.  Follow these, and you will be well and truly on your way to a more trustworthy relationship.

In his unlikeliest role to date, Brad Pitt turns wedding planner... 





According to reports, Angelina Jolie has not planned a single detail of her wedding to Brad Pitt – rather, the actor is organising the big day himself. 

A source close to the actor has revealed that Brad has been in charge of all the arrangements, from reception placements to hymn choices. The ceremony is said to be taking place on the couple's estate in France, and builders have been flown in especially so as to ensure that renovations are completed before the big day. 

The source revealed to The Sun: 'Angelina isn't so bothered about when they tie the knot – it's Brad who is piling on the pressure... He wants everything to be absolutely perfect.' 

Jeweller Robert Procop – who designed Angelina's engagement ring – has also spoken about the couple's imminent nuptials, saying: 'Brad and Angelina are a very romantic couple. They always knew they'd be together forever and get married one day, right from the start'.
