9 Common Kajal Mistakes That Can Damage Both Your Makeup and Your Eyes!
Such a simple make-up accessory – so much technique! Are you committing these mistakes while applying your everyday kajal?
Kajal – the single most basic eye make-up accessory that even a woman who is not make-up savvy must know of and has used at some point in life. Kajal is a very versatile make-up accessory that can instantly make your eyes look more beautiful. There are women who swear by kajal to be their only party make-up, and then there are women who are so used to wearing kajal every day that they don't count it as make-up at all!
Mistakes to Avoid While Applying Kajal
Whichever of the above two categories of women you belong to, it is important you use the stick properly to get the perfect look. Here are 9 common mistakes that many women commit, and how to avoid them by following the right kajal makeup tips.
1. Applying Kajal Incorrectly
The right way to apply kajal is: rest your elbows on a flat surface, hold the pencil in your working hand. With your middle or ring finger, very gently pull the waterline down. Apply kajal in short strokes instead of one long stroke. Start near the inner corner of the eye, and move outward. Applying kajal any other way may compromise your look!
2. Applying Kajal Only on The Lower Waterline
Kajal can – or rather should – be applied on both your lower and upper waterline. This helps define the eyes better, especially if you have thin or sparse eyelashes.
3. Applying Too Much Kajal
Yes ladies – there is such a thing as 'too much kajal'. If your line is too thick, or your kajal too dark, it might make your eyes look weird instead of shapely and defined. Also too much kajal can be a pain to remove later (even if you use a make-up remover).
4. Smudging Kajal to Hide Dark Circles
The correct thing to do if you have dark circles is to apply a thin line of kajal, and to not smudge it. Smudging looks sexy, but if you have dark circles, it is only going to enhance your dark circles, beating the whole purpose of applying kajal.
5. Using Only Black / Only Coloured Kajal
Variety is the spice of life. So go ahead and experiment ladies! Do not stick to only black kajal, or only coloured ones. Change the kajal depending on the dress you are wearing, the weather outside, and the time of the day. Once you feel confident about that, you can even mix and match – use black kajal with a coloured one to create stunning effects! ||
6. Using Darker Kajal Shades During The Day
When its bright and sunny outside, everything looks better and more in focus. Imagine having a thick black line (like a sketch pen or marker) on such a day! Definitely not the look you are aiming for. So try and find milder shades – such as violets, browns, or teals – to use during the day, and use black kajal at night. Coloured kajal will not be clearly visible during the night, whereas black kajal might look too bold depending on how sunny it is. Choose wisely.
7. Not Taking Care of the Kajal Pencil / Using a Low-quality Kajal
In terms of hygiene, this is the single most fatal mistake women commit. It is very important to make sure that you take ample care of your kajal stick. Keep the lid on when not in use, sharpen the tip regularly, if the kajal has not been used for a while then break off the tip to get rid of the dry part – or better still, do not use a dried up kajal stick. Eyes are far too precious for you to be careless with your kajal stick, or any other eye make-up. Remember - this is also one of the crucial tips for eyeliner; never go for a low-quality product!
8. Stretching Eyelids While Applying Kajal
The purpose behind doing this is to get an even line. But does it ever turn out really even? No! If you apply kajal on a daily basis, stretching your eyelids like that every single day can also accelerate the formation of wrinkles. The best thing to do is to gently pull the eyelid up or down, and apply the kajal in short strokes (as explained in the first point).
9. Applying Kajal Without Using a Mirror
Many women like to boast how they can apply kajal even if there is no mirror around. While that is an admirable skill no doubt, it is a dangerous practice! You could hurt yourself with the kajal stick, you could end up applying it incorrectly. So why risk it? Always carry a small pocket-mirror with you.
That's it! Now that you know the kajal mistakes to avoid, let's find out the correct way of applying it. And who better to learn from than the diva Kareena Kapoor herself?

Simple Tips to Teach Your Kids the Importance and Joy of Sharing
Sharing is an important aspect of life skill that every child must learn. It is something that kids need to learn so that they can make friends and play together. As a parent, it is our responsibility to make our children understand the basics of sharing and that too right from a tender age. Sharing teach kids about compromise. They learn that if we have 'giving' hands and open to sharing things with others, we will also get something we want. Once your child starts going to childcare, preschool or kindergarten, he or she will need to be able to share with others.
Here are Some Tips for Teaching Your Kids Joy of Sharing
1. Lead by Example
Best way for your child to learn generosity is to witness it. So share your special things with her and she will also learn to share with you eventually.
2. Make It Fun
Kids copy things easily when they learn through fun activities. Play games, like pretend play, with her by using a turn by turn basis so that she learn to share.
3. Praise Your Child
When she shares proactively or when told to do so by you, as a parent, make sure you praise her. Tell her that you are proud of her and you are happy that she is behaving in a good way.
4. Create an Environment
When you teach about sharing to your child, it is important that you realise that you can't teach her forcefully. Instead, work to create an environment of sharing in order to encourage the habit of sharing.
5. Talk to Your Child
Help your child to express emotions that are related to sharing. If your child is snatching or holding something back, make her realise how her friend might be feeling. Tell your child how happy her friend would be if she would share the toy with him/her and play together.
6. Make It a Game
Give her some biscuits and tell her to share with everyone in the room. This will help your kid to learn the value of sharing. Another way could be to eat together on the same plate as you can share food with the child.
These are simple tips to teach your kids joy of sharing which I follow too as a mother. Don't always force your child to share. Just teach her with patience and love!

These 5 Husbands Told Us EXACTLY What They Want From Their Wives!
As women, we always know just what we want out of our men, right? "I wish he was more thoughtful." "I think he needs to lose some weight or just tone up a little." We obviously want the best for our husbands and aren't always shy to say so. But what if for once the roles were reversed? What if your husbands decided to tell us what THEY want from YOU? Would there be fireworks or would it go down smoothly? Let's see what they have to say!
Men are simple creatures - and that may not always work to our advantage, mainly because women are as complex as it gets. You know it's true! For instance, if you ask a man why is he so quiet and what he is thinking of and he says “nothing”, he is most likely to be telling the truth. But when you ask a woman what is wrong and she says “ nothing”...Boy! Is that poor guy in trouble!
It is for this reason that many relationships are either between two individuals who are comfortable with the “men are from Mars, women are from Venus” situation, or are spending their lives trying to figure the other one out.
Just to help our moms out, we decided to ask five simple beings i.e. husbands what they want from their wives. Their answers range from aww'dorable, surprisingly simple, notoriously naughty to downright hilarious...to say the least. Without further ado, lets clear your doubts on what your man may want from you.
The Doting Dater
This man said that his wife was actually quite perfect (aww) and that the only thing he would like from her was what he had originally fallen for – she planned great dates! But now, years into their marriage and two kids later, the dates were few and far between. He said that he would love for his darling to plan thoughtful, sexy or silly dates every now and then just like she used to so that they can forever remain the young, cute couple that they once were! Are you listening, husbands...this woman has a keeper!
The Raunchy Role Player
Hubby no. 2 said that while his wife makes it clear how much she loves him, he wishes she would get more imaginative, sometimes, during sex. So, while he knows she is physically attracted to him and vice versa, he would love for her to indulge in some role play – perhaps his favourite fictional movie character? He also admitted that sometimes, just her taking her mommy-role seriously turns him on more than she'd ever realise. Easy-to-please, this one.
The Funny Guy
“I just wish she would find my pranks funny."
Husband no. 3 just wants some appreciation for his jokes and tricks. He went on to tell us an incident that didn't go down well on his woman. “She was on her period once (red-flag alert) and was craving chocolate. As a joke I filled an empty box of chocolates with cotton balls dipped in red paint and left it on her pillow with a note saying 'I love how you understand me so well.' Minutes after I had placed it I heard a gasp and our bedroom door banged shut! She was so livid, she didn't even find the actual chocolates I had left on the dresser. I slept on the living room sofa that night."
Well, the joke's on you, sir.
The Hopeful Fantasizer
“My wife tells her best friend EVERYTHING. Right from the fights, we have to the details of what goes on in our bedroom! Initially, it would really make me nervous and even angry that this woman knew all about my flaws and inabilities... but then I thought since she knows everything already, what if she joined in on a romantic night in?”
He quickly added, “Although I quickly dismissed it, in a fantasy world, I would want my wife to actually be open to this!”
Erm. Whether or not he will get what he wants, we may never know!
The Genuinely Good-Guy
And finally, all this man wanted from his wife was this:
“I just want her to trust my ability as a father. That I do and will continue to, provide for her and our son and that she can take a break whenever she would like to."
What? Is that actually a man who can communicate well? It sure is! Lucky, lucky husband number 5 seems to want to pamper his princess all through life. Sigh! Read more

A. Hello there ma’am please do not worry about it too much and it is quite difficult to say anything about it without personally examination and proper reports evaluation. So better to consult with your treating gynaecologist in person as she knew the exact health condition of your pregnancy and can guide you better.
Take care
