>
Store pieces separately in
jewellery boxes or chamois bags so they don't get scratched by
other items of jewellery.
> Clean platinum in the same way you clean other fine
jewellery - using prepackaged jewellery cleaner or by soaking
it in a mild solution of soap and warm water, then gently rubbing
it with a soft cloth.
> Have your platinum jewellary professionally cleaned
once in a while. For platinum jewellery set with gemstones, be
sure to do this every six months.
> Don't handle bleach or harsh chemicals when wearing
platinum jewellery. Although they won't hurt the platinum, chemicals
may discolour diamonds or gemstones.

I
have small eyes and dark circles. How can I make my eyes look
big?
- Preeti Srivastava, Muzaffarpur

Use
a concealer on your dark circles. It should be one shade lighter
than the colour of your dark circles. Also, use a little concealer
on your eyelids. Use a streak of a light-coloured eyes shadow
on your lids. Colours like gold and beige should be goiod. Apply
eyeliner close to the root of your eyelids. This will define youyr
eyes. Last but not the least. Use loads of mascara to open your
eyes up.

Whats
Ur Skin Types
Everybody
is born with a different skin type. So before getting into skin
care, check out your skin type and the kind of care it requires.
Normal skin is soft and velvety in texture, with a perfect pH
balance and this type of skin needs the latest taking care of.
Oily skin is extremely sensitive and needs to be taken care of.
Oily skin is more prone to problems like acne and pimples, and
it open pores too, which give it a coarse and thick appearance.
Dry skin develops patches and is flaky in appearance, making the
skin look old and tired.
For every kind of skin, the skin care regimen has to differ, but
pure and natural ingredients is what unifies the skin care routine
for all types of skin.

Just
For Keeps
>
Velvet attracts a lot of dust so retain the plastic cover it comes
in. Brush off the dust with a nylon bristle brush.
> Be careful while travelling or storing embroidered velvet in
your cupboard, as folding it can cause the embroidery to leave an
impression on the material.
> Place butter paper between the folds of the garment while travelling.
And when it's in your cupboard, just hang it up and don't fold it.
> Dry cleaning is a must with this fabric and one should never
try to machine-wash it.
> Air it once in two weeks so as to avoid fungus. |
