These are simple beauty tips that might help you prepare for a big day - maybe a function, a party, a date or some special occasion. You just need to plan a week ahead of the event. Follow this simple regime for eight days. I did this before my own wedding, its tried and tested.

Day 8 - Detox

Make sure you get your Vit C each day.
Here's why - Vitamin C plays a significant role as an antioxidant and thus acts to protect your cells against the effects of free radicals, which are by-products that damage the body's metabolism. It also is quite effective against wrinkles and fine lines.
Some natural sources of Vitamin C are:

Fruits

Orange, Lime, Sweet lime, Kiwi, Strawberry, Blackberries, Cantaloupe, Watermelon, Tomatoes, Peach, Bananas, Apples, Lemon, Grapes and so on

Vegetables

Artichoke, Asparagus, Avocado, Broccoli, Carrots, Cauliflower, Corn, Cucumber, Green Pepper, Kale, Lima, Beans, Mushrooms, Onions, Peas, Potatoes, Spinach, Sweet potato and so on

The best and the easiest way would be taking them in the form of fresh vegetable/ fruit juices.

Day 7 - Face It

Exfoliate your face every 2 days.
Here's how - A homemade scrub of bread crumbs and milk would work. Or you could try some coarsely crushed almonds / walnuts along with some semolina (suji) with milk. Massage gently this will make the dead skin cells on your face roll off along with the scrub. Rinse with warm water.

Then apply a basic face pack of yogurt and chickpea flour (besen). Leave on for 10 minutes. Rinse your skin with cold water.

Important: Do apply face packs / moisturizers to neck also along with your face. You don't want just your face to glow and the neck to look patchy!

Try the age old technique of placing cucumber slices on eyes for dark circles. Cucumber has cooling properties and will relax your eyes too. Potato slices are another option.Just ten minutes will do the trick. Do this religiously for the rest of the days. It works!!

Day 6 - Let Your Hair Down

Its time to work on those tresses.
Massage a mixture of almond and olive oil into hair and scalp. Wrap hair with hot towel for a few minutes so that the oil seeps deep into the roots of your hair. After half hour, shampoo as usual. Do this before every shampoo. Your hair will get noticeably healthy and really really silky.

If you have dry fuzzy hair, please do not forget to condition them.

For homemade conditioner you may want to try combining mashed avocado with some coconut milk. Mix well. Apply this to hair and comb it through the hair to ensure even application. Wait for 10 -15 minutes, rinse out. Or take 1/4 cup vinegar added to 1 cup water use this as a final rinse. It leaves your hair soft and shiny.

Day 5 - Put Your Hands Together

Unkempt hands and feet are a very important aspect of grooming and are readily noticeable in public. So a quick manicure and pedicure is required.
Soak hands and feet in warm water to which some salt and a few drops of liquid soap are added. After 15 -20 minutes, use a pumic stone to rub away dead skin. Cut and shape nails. Rub nails with some oil to help nails grow strong and condition cuticles. Follow up with a generous massage with a good moisturiser.

Tip: Don't paint the nails now, keep it for the last day so that your nail paint stays fresh and intact.

Day 4 - Rejuvenate

You can create a spa inside your own bathroom.
Add a few drops of any scented oil you like to a tub of water. For soft moisturised happy skin, add a cup of milk to it. Now play soft music, light candles and take a long soak-it helps!

You will definitely thank me for this one. It relaxes your mind and body, which obviously shows on your skin. Plus you will end up smelling good. A happy relaxed mind will help you think and work better too.

Day 3 - Get Pretty

Get all your waxing, bleaching, threading done now, just in case your skin reacts to any hair removal treatments! This is the final touch up needed. Also this will give you time to do other preparations needed on the day before the final event.

Oh, did you paint the nails??

Day 2 - All in a Day's Work

Once you are done with all errands for the day, have a long bath and catch up on your sleep to rejuvenate and refresh your body and mind.

Shaolin Body Conditioning Tincture

Image
At the Shaolin Temple, once a disciple begins to study one of the seventy-two styles, they are given a specific Qigong and a specific recipe to make a body conditioning tincture. In the past, the monks used to lie in baths of these tinctures but today we apply this tincture to our body. After making up this tincture, the disciples then adapt it slightly and each disciple has his own recipe.   Mine is made from twenty-five natural herbs, roots and barks. Some of the herbs help the blood to flow, some help to strengthen the bones, others help the muscles to relax. This medicine can also be used for injuries, bruising, and some people say that it can be effective for repetitive strain injury though I have no experience of this so I don’t know if this is true. My own experience is in body conditioning. I used it when I was learning Shaolin Steel Jacket and I could never have endured this hard training without the aid of this special medicine. The first thing we do when we do body condit
