Mad about monsoon
 PICTURE this. You are stuck
in a bad traffic jam and the air-conditioner is not really helping to keep
you calm and cool. The non-stop honking around is just adding on to the
heat. Just then, you hear pitter-patter! And there you go smiling. The
faint sound is sure music to ears, eyes, body, mind and soul. Monsoon is a
blessing and if it comes a little early than expected, then nothing like
that! Love, bliss, ecstasy it’s hard to describe the emotions that
monsoon bring alive.

Dental Disaster
Anne Hathaway’s recent visit to France has left a
mark on her memory for all the wrong reasons. The Devil Wears Prada
star was in Paris for the launch of Lancome’s new fragrance but her
addiction to chewing gum left her with a broken tooth just a day before
the event. "I broke a molar in Paris the day before the launch. I
thought maybe I would be okay and went out to dinner and realised the
nerve was exposed, so I had to go to a dentist," The Daily
Telegraph quoted Hathaway, as telling Showbizspy.com.
Spice

Ban the tan
TANNING is inevitable. Sunscreens do help protect the skin from tanning
and UV rays but if you have been careless, these simple scrubs will help
reverse the effects of tan. A facial scrub is useful after washing or
cleansing the skin. You can buy a facial scrub according to skin type.
You can also make one at home with ingredients from the kitchen. Ground almonds make a good
facial scrub. It’s fairly simple. Just soak the almonds in hot water
till the skin comes out easily. Then allow them to become totally dry.
Mariah to launch perfume no.
