My quick Beauty tips
If you have to get ready very quick, just apply kaajal on your eyes. Your eyes are the windows of your face. And when people talk, they usually look at your eyes.

I Pamper Myself With
Hair washes at a salon two times a week. The way you wash and condition your hair is all-important: for it'll determine whether you'll have dandruff, hair fall or if it'll look bouncy and shiny.
