This year marked the 40th anniversary of the National Smile
Month; the campaign reaches more than 50 million people and since its
inception, it has become one of the most effective reminders of the importance
of good oral health. However, not everything is still perfect; in fact, around
25% of people admit they do not brush their teeth twice a day (including 33%
men). A good smile isn’t just an accessory; it is also an indicator of your
overall health. Poor oral health is associated with serious health issues such
as stroke, diabetes and heart disease.
If you are looking for some tips on oral hygiene, you cannot go wrong
with Martha Stewart. The 74-year old lifestyle guru is serious about her dental
health – a couple of years ago, she live-tweeted her visit to the dentist in
order to take the mystery and the fear out of the dentist for all of her
followers with dental phobia. The author of “Living the Good Long Life” has a
lot to say on the topic of dental hygiene, so let’s take a look at some of her
most useful tips.
Most people, who own a manual toothbrush, don’t even know how to angle
the bristles properly. So instead of gentle up-and-down strokes, many people
use horizontal back and forth motion. In most cases, this technique erodes the
gums and speeds up tooth wear. According
to Ms. Stewart, the electronic toothbrush does the work for you, so if you want
to play it safe, you should definitely invest in a sonic model.
According to Emanuel Layliev, D.D.S.
(New York Magazine named him “the Best in New York” for teeth whitening), in
order to keep your teeth white, you should avoid green or blue-tinted
mouthwashes. Colored mouthwashes contain dyes that lead to staining, especially
if they are loaded with alcohol, which makes your teeth more prone to
darkening. In addition, as strange as it
may sound, Layliev recommends that you drink coffee and red vine through a
straw, since these treats contribute to yellowing.
Let’s make things clear; brushing is still the best way of keeping
your teeth clean. However, if you ever find yourself in a situation where you
forgot your brush, but you still need your teeth cleaned, there are certain
foods that can naturally scrub your smile. Layliev explains, if you can’t
brush, simply munch on fibrous fruits and vegetables, such as lettuce, apples,
broccoli and spinach. Moreover, for fresher breath, grab a couple of
all-natural, bacteria-fighting herbs like cilantro, parsley and mint.
From Visiting A Dentist In Chatswood for a regular checkup, I learned
that if a cavity or a cracked tooth isn’t the cause of your sensitivity, worn
enamel might be the problem. Worn-down enamel, bleeding and receding gums are
often caused by brushing too hard. If you feel pain every time you snack on
something cold, a trip to the dentist is necessary. The doctor will apply
enamel-strengthening fluoride gel to quell your discomfort, or seal the tooth
root if necessary.
If you have consumed anything acidic (lemon, grapefruit, lemon, etc.)
you should avoid brushing your teeth for half an hour. However, after drinking
a beverage that contains phosphoric acid (sodas and fruit juices) you should
wait at least an hour before brushing. The acid weakens the enamel and
immediate brushing will remove microscopic amounts of that enamel layer. Instead, drink a couple glasses of water to
dilute the acid and then brush up later.
When we want to make some major change in our
life or simply when we want to decide about the little things, like what we are
going to wear, we usually look up to the stars to show us the way… And we do
not mean the shiny sky figures, but the red carpet stars. For some reason we
look at them as perfect human beings, but the truth is that they are just as
humans as we are and that they too need some touching up from time to time.
Now, while some of them implemented those
changes in minimal manner, others have altered their appearance to the point at
which we barely recognize them. Here are the members of the latter group.
Renee
Zellweger

Bridget Jones as we know her will never be
the same again. And perhaps the fans will miss her 2001 lovely character which
resided on her next-door puffy face, but it will never come back. The actress
has altered her appearance so much that her face became unrecognizable. Her
face was made less rectangular, less puffy and less tomboyish. Although we
cannot say that she does not look beautiful after these procedures, she has
completely missed the whole point of plastic surgery: looking better, not
looking unrecognizable.
Ashlee
Simpson

We have a winner! Although the nose job
procedure that Ashlee Simpson has undergone did change her look in a quite
obvious way, the lady ended up looking amazingly well with her other features
still remaining recognizable. In 2006 Ashlee replaced her large Roman nose with
a straight and slimmer version. That one alteration has completely changed her
entire face, for the better, if we may add.
Iggy Azalea

The young rapper has gained a lot of
attention not just because of her music. When she first appeared she looked as
your normal teenage girl, but look at her now. First, there was that nose job,
and the results were fantastic, but Iggy did not stop there. She has also had
breast implants and now, her most recognizable feature, butt implants. In 2015 the young star has made
even more changes – chin implant and dermal fillers injections that have
modified her look in a very obvious way.
Tori
Spelling

The Beverly Hills 90210 star has got her
first boob job during the filming of this series, well, decades ago, so
probably no one even remembers how she looked before. Since then, Tori gave
birth to 4 kids, so it is no wonder she had to lift those babies (and we do not
mean the kids) up several times more. Lucky for her, a breast lift in Sydney,
New York, her hometown Los Angeles, and any other bigger city around the globe,
is already a standard procedure.

The guy who gave us Saturday Night Fever and
Grease, looks drastically different than in those glory days. He is the living
proof that men of Hollywood are not afraid to get ‘under the knife’ for the
purpose of beauty, but we are not sure if the things are going so well for him.
The overall appearance of his face has changed to the point it looks unnatural.
The overuse of Botox has almost paralyzed his face, leaving it with little to
no expressiveness. That does not seem as a good career decision, though.

Kelly
Osbourne
Everyone
remembers Kelly Osbourne as a drug abusing teenage rebel who was in a self-harm
phase for a long time. She was a 3B – Blunt, Big and with Bad tattoos.
Something clicked inside her and now she has a nice figure, no outbursts and
she also Went for a Tattoo Removal. She said: “NEVER
get a living lover’s name or a matching couples tattoo. It is my belief that
they are the kiss of death on any relationship. It doesn’t just mess up the
relationship you are in when you get your everlasting doomsday ink, but future
relationships as well”. She is a real embodiment of ONE BIG positive change.

Having sharp curves is a blessing. However, it can also mean being confronted with some challenges when it comes to flattering clothing. To enjoy your curves and look even more incredible, there are some useful tips to help you dress your body and enhance your looks and style.
Buttoned down shirt
When it comes to shirts, busty ladies should definitely avoid tight-fitting pieces since they can appear a bit small in the chest area. But, finding a loose fitting buttoned shirt that can be casuallytucked in pants or skirts looks really great and flattering on a bit bustier figure. The best thing about this type of shirts is that they can be dressed up and down with the choice of bottoms and accessories.
Don’t
be afraid of dark colors If you don’t want to attract too much attention to your chest, opting for simple fitted tops in dark colors can be your best option. Dark fabric won’t emphasize the size of your bust while the fitted cut of the top will actually shift attention to your waist. Another great quality of plain dark tops is that they can be paired with any type, color and pattern of bottoms.
Fitted dresses
When you choose your dresses leave the loose trend aside and always look for fitted body-wrap dresses. These types of dresses will give good support to your chest while flatteringly wrapping the body in order to point out your other prominent curves such as waist and hips. If you already have an hourglass figure, you can get away with any pattern and color while those who would like to visually accentuate these features can find a number of dresses with geometrical patterns where the darker color is on the sides of the dress for that visual impact of hourglass figure.
Opt for a fitted jacket The style and length of the jacket are not that important in this case as long as the jacket is fitted. Moreover, refrain from zipping or buttoning up the jacket. That way you will have a nice layered outfit that won’t show off the size of your bust but will instead balance your whole look. Be careful with necklines and accessories Choosing a top with a flattering neckline should not be that difficult as long as you take the time to try on the tops in the shop where you can see for yourself what suits you the best. In general, V-neck tops look most flattering on busty ladies. Moreover, refrain from long, dangly pieces of jewelry when it comes to necklaces, since they can only draw unwanted attention to your chest. Instead, opt for short necklaces or chokers.
Find good support
For your clothes to look perfect on you, you need to have good underwear support. Therefore, shop for good quality bras and ask the store staff for help. Underwear with good supporting ability can sometimes minimize possible back pains that happen due to the weight of breasts. Unfortunately, the strain on the back can often be really problematic. While one of the options to reduce the pain can be breast reduction surgery, less abusive method to deal with the pain and proper posture is seeking the Professional Chiropractic Services which can make a lot of difference in daily activities.
The important thing when it comes to choosing proper clothes is to embrace your body and love yourself. That way you’ll find it easier to go shopping and confidently pick garments that look most flattering on your body type.
Choosing the mothers’ outfits is the next most important fashion decisions after the wedding party has been dressed. While all eyes will be on the bride and groom and their team, the focus will be on both mothers for a good portion of time, and having the right outfit allows you to enjoy your child’s ceremony in comfort and elegance.
Gone are the days when mothers of the bride and groom had to wear matronly gowns of a certain build; today, you can go all out with an outfit that highlights your individual style. Don’t be stuck with beige, unless that’s the color you love. You can match the color scheme of the wedding party, but if you’d like to have something different, ask the bride to allow you to go with what works for you. Be prepared to look graceful, fashionable and elegant, and boldly walk into the ceremony because you’ll be looking like a star.
As stated, the sky is the limit regarding style (propriety is key, however), from long and short dresses to skirt and jacket ensembles to formal gowns. Be willing to work with what the bride wants e.g. if you have a themed wedding. As usual, starting early allows you to find something that will really suit your style and tastes.
Below is a list of guidelines that will help you through the process:
1.Conventionally, the mother of the bride is allowed to select her outfit first
2.You can choose to work with the bride’s theme colors, but doing so will have you disappearing and looking like one of them. Choose something that’s different but complements the wedding party’s color choices
3.Don’t wear the same colors as each other. Its okay to deviate from the color scheme provided your outfits look distinct.
4.Length is a matter of personal preference, whether you’re attending a formal ceremony or not. However, be careful about going too short, even if you regularly wear shorter outfits. Knee-length or just slightly higher is the highest you should go. Be careful about calf-lengths though, as these require a certain kind of footwear and style to look elegant on everyone.
5.Wearing clothes of the same length can help to create better harmony for wedding photos, but this isn’t a must for you.
Wedding outfit tips for mothers
·Instead of department stores, go shopping in specialty stores which will allow you more personalized attention and a wider selection. Such stores are also ideal in case alterations need to be made, as well as to find accessories and undergarments to go with the outfit.
·Where possible, carry a swatch of the bridesmaids’ gown’s fabric and color, so that you can choose an outfit that complements them.
·Ensure you start two or three months before the wedding so that you allow time for extensive shopping and shipping if ordering from Wholesale Fashion Clothing stores online as well as any alterations that need to be made. In case something doesn’t fit or work, you have some time to find a plan.
·When buying the dress, find out which shoes and undergarments (including pantyhose) you should wear in order to make the dress look perfect
·Both mothers are traditionally allowed to make the first call to discuss ‘the outfits’. Because the mother of the bride has first picks, she would typically make that call, but if the groom’s mother hasn’t heard anything and plans are moving along, she can make the call.
