    Mix both the ingredients, lemon juice (about 1 tbsp) and baking soda (2-3 tbsp) and make a thick paste.

    Apply this paste on your nails and with the help of a soft toothbrush just scrub this paste on your nails.

    Keep it for 10-15 mins on your nails and then just rinse it.

    Apply a heavy moisturiser on your hands and fingertips to avoid the dryness.

    You can rub fresh orange peel directly to your nails two to three times daily. And it will start giving a visible result in 1-2 weeks.

    Use the dried orange peels. Grind dried orange peel and mix it with the little water to make a thick paste.

    Leave this paste on your fingertips for 10 mins.

    Use a soft toothbrush and scrub gently.

    Wash it with lukewarm water.

    A diet can also prove to be beneficial for nails. The way your body, skin and hair needs a balanced diet, in the same way, your nails also need a diet for their health. Include more probiotics like yogurt in the diet.

    Nails are made of up protein, so the richer is your diet in protein, better will be the health of your nails. Eating fish, beef, spinach and dairy products which are high in protein are good for the health of nails and body.

Natural remedies for dark circles around your eyes

Dark circles around your eyes. How unsightly they look and even your best dress and layers of make-up sometimes does not quite succeed in concealing them! Blame it on your genes or your lifestyle, but, you cannot deny the fact that these are a blot on your beauty . And they become more prominent as you age. Let’s just debunk some of the myths as well as unearth some of the facts about the causes of these ‘ panda eyes ’.   Dark circles under eyes usually are temporary and not a medical concern. You may be surprised to learn that fatigue usually isn't the cause of dark circles. Instead, the most common cause is nasal congestion. When your nose is congested, veins that usually drain from your eyes into your nose become widened (dilated) and darker.

Common cold is a very common malady which affects people during monsoons. (Also see the post Beauty and body care in monsoon for a monsoon beauty regimen.) It can be caused by any one of more than 200 viruses. Normally it is confined to the nose and throat although the virus can infect the larynx and lungs. It is said that there is no particular cure for colds, they are naturally relieved within a week.
