Essential wine hacks for everyone who loves vino more than people

Wine is a way of life for most people, especially for us! And although we love what every drop of vino does to our senses, we have to admit that it isn’t the easiest of beverages to consume.

Thank you Appliance City UK!

1) It is possible to open wine without a corkscrew only recommended when one isn’t available around you!

There are many ways to open a bottle of wine without a corkscrew like with a nail and a plier, a shoe and your house keys. Try these hacks with the utmost care and only use them when there isn’t a corkscrew around.

Add chunks of pineapple to your wine to enhance its sweetness. You may also add your favourite berries to it.

15 Makeup tips for beginners

Makeup can accentuate your best features and cover up the ones that don’t flatter your looks. However, poorly applied makeup can transform your look into something new, and not a good kind of new. Ladies, we all are beginners at some point and knowing the right technique comes with time. Here are 15 makeup tips for beginners that will help you go pro.

1) Use white pencil liner in your waterline to make them appear bigger.

2) Apply a lighter shade of eye shadow near the inside ridge to brighten up your eyes.

3) Fix your clumpy mascara by putting 2 to 3 drops of any eye drops/ lens solution in it.

Here’s why it’s important to wash your makeup brushes regularly!

Makeup brushes are an important investment for every woman and rightly so. Gone are the days when applying foundation meant blending it with your fingers until it matched your correct skin tone. Now there is a plethora of brushes available in the markets which do the exact same job in a much better and hygienic fashion. However, like any other priced possession (yes, they are expensive), owning makeup brushes comes with its own set of responsibilities. Here’s why?

Source

Why is it important to clean makeup brushes?

We are not saying that you are dirty but makeup brushes have build-ups of product, bacteria, dead skin cells, oil and residue. It’s important that you clean them on a regular basis before using them on your skin to avoid breakouts and infections. Besides, you don’t want to transfer all the bacteria every time you dip your brush into your favourite pot of concealer.

Source

How often should one clean makeup brushes?

If you use makeup brushes on a regular basis then we suggest cleaning them twice every week. If you use them less often then it’s suggested you clean them once every two weeks. Please note that the list of brushes to be cleaned includes your gel eyeliner and lip liner brushes too.

USA vs Japan: Giant robots fight to the death!

Remember as kids we used to watch shows involving giant robots fighting, like Transformers and Power Rangers? Well as adults now we get to watch them in real life!

“Suidobashi, you have a giant robot, we have a giant robot. You know what needs to happen.”

– With these words the US Company MegaBot challenged the world’s only other giant robot maker in Japan called Kuratas Mecha.

“We can’t let another country win this. Giant robots are Japanese culture. Yeah, I’ll fight” said Kogoro Kurata as he accepted the duel.

And thus a new era of combat sports is born with giant fighting robot teams!

source

Details regarding the fight are still being decided between the two parties. As for the venue, they have the perfect place in mind – International waters. To fight on a ship or an aircraft carrier in the middle of the pacific, the battle is going to be breathtaking for sure!

The fight will take place in one year, giving both sides ample amount of time to prepare their bots to fight each other toe to toe and in their best condition possible (reminds us of that time when Optimus Prime kicked Megatron’s a** in the Transformers movie).

It simply doesn’t get any better than this now, does it?

Things you need to get through monsoon in style

While most people look forward to the rainy season, the anticipation and excitement gets over after the first couple of days. Like every season, monsoon comes with its own negatives and positives. The rain washes away heat and provides the much needed relief but it leaves everyone feeling sticky and moist. Here are a few tips for monsoon that will ensure you get through the season looking and feeling effortlessly stylish.

1) Clothes

Just like summer and winter, we need to change the way we dress during monsoon. Opt for clothes that are made of lighter fabrics like blended cotton and polyester. These fabrics dry up faster if you get soaked in rainwater and don’t crush very easily. Refrain from layering too much to feel light and easy when the weather gets sticky.

Source

2) Hair

Monsoon is almost synonymous with frizzy hair. If your hair doesn’t curl up like instant noodles in the humidity, believe us you’re one of the few lucky people out there. For all the others, avoid using hair sprays, lacquers, gel and other hair products as they stick to the scalp and form a layer of product buildup that is very difficult to get rid of. Tie your hair in a top knot, or a sleek ponytail and remember to keep it very simple. If you like to keep them open, spray some dry shampoo on your hair brush before running it through your hair to keep the scalp dry.

Source

3) Shoes

Needless to say, avoid covered leather and suede shoes/heels during monsoon. Water does permanent damage to this kind of material and you might not be able to wear them ever again. If you really can’t do without them, we suggest wearing light rubber or plastic slippers when you’re outdoors and changing into your preferred shoes later.

If you like to make a statement, invest in a pair of rain boots. They go very well with skirts, dresses and denims.

Source

4) Makeup

Stay away from foundations during rainy season as it might flow down with the water. Swap that with a compact powder and use a very light moisturiser. Keep your choice of lip and nail colours neutral and use waterproof mascara and eye liner.

Source

5) Bags

Just like your shoes, avoid leather and suede bags. Carry waterproof bags and be sure to keep your mobile phones and important gadgets covered with protective plastic so they don’t get ruined.

Source

6) Raincoats/ Umbrellas

Carrying an umbrella is a must during monsoon. You may choose a style according to your preference and requirements. If you’re too lazy to carry an umbrella around then opt for a rain coat or a trench coat.
