Nail Art Essentials : Part 1 (Beginner)

Ok we've all learnt our nail art stuff step by step... and for a beginner, it's important to know the VERY basic nail art essentials you should always have with you as a girl.
I also started very slowly, taking time to realize why these items are important to do a simple manicure and here I am teaching you the very basics I learnt over the past few years.

So, here's a list of my nail art essentials. They help a lot in creating the perfect nail art. and the most basic nail art..

Easy Pudding Recipe

Hiya Pinkiis!

Today I'm gonna post a recipe which I made up with the help of a basic pudding recipe I found on a nice blog. It's unbelievably easy that I wondered what I've been doing all these years spending on instant pudding mixtures! In fact, the pudding you end up making is far better than the store bought.

Here's the tutorial for the perfect home-made, no-bake, egg-less  pudding.


You will need:- 
 
 Corn flour   5 tablespoons 
 Sugar   3 1/2 tablespoons 
 Butter/Margarine   3 tablespoons 
 Vanilla/Almond Essence   1 teaspoon 
 Milk   2-3 cups 
 Food colouring (optional)   1/2 teaspoon 

DIY: How to Make Your Own Toothpick Basket in 10 steps

Hiya Pinkiis!
I'm Saki, the new co-author and the #1 fan of this lovely blog!

As my first blog post, I'm gonna show you how to make a DIY toothpick basket in 10 simple steps.

Things You'll Need: 
  • A packet of toothpicks 
  • Glue

How To:
  1. Keep 2 toothpicks parallel to each other, vertically, on your working surface, and apply two dots of glue on both ends of the toothpicks. (It'll be better if you applied the glue leaving several millimetres on the ends.)
  2. Keep another 2 toothpicks on the first two, horizontally.
  3. Apply glue dots and stick another 2 toothpicks as you did earlier.
  4. Continue the process until you create a square model, deep enough.
  5. Apply glue along the last two toothpicks.
  6. Make the base of the basket by covering with toothpicks. 
  7. Leave it for 15 minutes for the glue to harden.
  8. Turn the basket, hollow side up, and apply 2 stripes of glue along the middle of the four sides.
  9. Leave for 5 minutes.
  10. Apply glue on the top ends of the sticks and keep toothpicks as to make a handle and leave for 15 minutes.
Now that you have created your very own Toothpick basket, fill it with anything you want.
Below is a picture of my first toothpick basket (Its handle is a little bit different,yes) that I have filled with quilled flowers.

How to keep your hair healthy and glowing

Hey guys,
These days, I've been worrying a lot about my hair. I loose a lot of hair when I'm bathing and combing and it has started to become a headache. Sometimes it gives me the creeps because maybe if it goes on loosing like this .... I might be BALD one day!!!!! And that, I don't want to happen.

Of course I know that I'm not gonna get bald, but you know, I love my hair, and I want it to be nice and healthy... So for the recent few years a lot of people gave me advice of how to keep my hair healthy. So whether it's scientific or not I'm gonna share it with you guys. Because we all adore our Hair




Fact No. 1  
Use no Heat. 
It's obvious that subjecting your hair for styling methods that use heating is bad for your hair. The heating tends to damage your hair, so straightening, curling, and even blow drying must be done carefully. If you can't survive without straightening or curling your hair, do use a good heat protection product to keep your hair safe. Or just minimize using them if you want healthy hair.

Hey guys,
So as promised, I'm here with a wonderful recipe to share with you guys.

So I learned how to cook eggs in various ways when I can't find anything else to eat.

See, doesn't it look delicious? This soft boiled egg is quite different from the ordinary ones as I SPICED it up! just as the title says it's time to 'spice up your recipe'.

How to do a French Manicure? All about french manicures...


When I feel like I should do a nail art and I really don't feel like working hard to create one, but when I do need my nails to look pretty, I always go for the french manicure.


As we all know, many don't know how to use the correct technique to create the perfect look. Some use
Sello tapes, Stamping,  or some draw the tips using nail art brushes and so on.
