COSMETIC TATTOOS REPLACING TRADITIONAL MAKEUP


Tattoos have been around for a long time, and the art is even considered as a tradition in some places. However, the love of tattooing is not just restricted to spiritual purpose or flaunting colourful tattoos on body.  These days a new trend of cosmetic make-up has been invented, which is replacing traditional cosmetics. By cosmetic tattooing, one can correct their fading eyebrows by just colouring the area, or if someone has blackened lips then they can get colour filled permanently on their lips.
The procedure ranges from $ 25 for a beauty spot to $120 and above for other treatments with a guarantee of 15 years. Permanent makeup involves injecting pigments into the skin. Its more like a tattoo but the tools used are, very fine needles and high grade colours which are harmless to skin because of the usage of natural colours.  Permanent makeup is more of a necessity than a luxury to people who have one or other problems with their natural gifted features.

Permanent makeup is the best solution to the problem of white patches. The common thing is to colour the leucoderma patches, which are the patches that people get on their face and the hands. Coloured tattooing of same colour helps them to hide their patches and get a new same coloured skin. This is not curing but this is hiding on a temporary basis.
Generally, women in the age group of 20-40 get the other treatments done, like curing of thin eye lashes or making their lips look bigger with the permanent lipstick. Most of the guys also get this procedure done. There are no side effects of permanent makeup.
But is it okay to change what god has given you just to look the way somebody else wants you to look? Think hard before you get something permanently coloured on your body, because is would be difficult going back to your original self and you would be marked for life.

Steps To Remember While Franchising Your Business


Franchising Your Business
Franchising can be an easy way of expanding the business but it should not be taken lightly. It can be both financially and economically rewarding for you. However you need to understand few things before going for it.
If you are thinking of franchising your business then I hope you must understand the meaning of this term. Franchise means allowing an individual or a group of people called franchisee to market and sell your products or services with your trademark. The other party is known as franchiser. In return the franchisee needs to pay royalties and fees to franchiser in order to use these rights. Franchising is a method of business expansion as your business gets new market and potential customers. It increases your turnover and hence your business.
Franchising helps you to expand quickly with less investment but you need to analyze few things. The first thing that you should list is all the advantages of franchising your business. Some of the most common advantages of franchising are it increases your customers and hence your purchasing power. People become familiar with your trademark and it becomes easy for you to gain their trust. There are some disadvantages too like you will lose some amount of control over your business like you will get only some share of the revenue generated by a franchise.
Before starting a franchise of your business, you need to analyze it perfectly and decide whether it’s possible to open franchise of your business or not. Maximum business models can be franchised but there are some businesses that can’t be franchised as it’s not easy to train an individual to do it in right way. Also some seasonal businesses can’t be franchised. So think over it initially.
Also you need to fulfill the basic requirements of opening a franchise depending upon the rules in your country like as per British Franchise association, you need to complete one successful year of your business to qualify for franchising.
Another thing that you will need in franchising is an operating manual that should clearly describe your business and things associated with it. It contains every requirement for running franchise successfully including sales, marketing, accounting and reporting. It acts like a guide for your franchisee.
Franchise agreement is a part that can’t be taken casually. It is like a legal bond between two parties and preserves their rights. It allows the franchisee to use your trademark and business model and also state the working conditions for him.
As a franchiser, you need to take care of these things in order to establish a successful franchise and avoid any future litigation.

Potty Training Tips for Parents


Child development experts have said that around the age of two years old, you should start to introduce your toddler to the potty.  However, every child is different.  Therefore, the age at which your child first becomes interested in the potty can vary.  When your toddler is ready, you will definitely know it.  The following article will provide some useful tips when it comes to potty training your toddler.

One of the most important aspects of potting training is constant praise.  Even when your toddler just sits on the potty, even if they do not make pee or poop, you should still praise them for sitting there.  It will encourage them to repeat the act, and eventually they will make pee or poop.

The first time your child pees or poops in their potty during potting training, they should not only be praised, but given a reward, as well.  The praise you give them for their interest in the potty, along with the reward they receive, will help your toddler to do it again and again and again.  You will be able to achieve successful potty training much quicker by incorporating praise and rewards into your methods.
potty training for parents
Finally, you should place your toddlers potty in a place he or she is comfortable going while you are potty training.  Sometimes that might be in the hallway right out side of the bathroom.  Some small children are intimidated by the size of the big toilet, and therefore you should not place their potty near it.  Observe your toddler closely during potty training to help you decide the best spot for their potty.

Potty training can be a stressful time for both parents and toddlers.  Keep in mind that your toddler is learning something new and being expected to do things he or she has never done before.  Be patient with your toddler during potty training and remember to reward and praise them constantly.

Social Networks – The Pros and Cons


It seems like someone you know has some sort of social network profile page.  Once it was MySpace that everyone flocked to, then all of the sudden Facebook exploded.  Now we have Twitter, where even some celebrities enjoy “tweeting” their thoughts.  Social networks can be a good thing, but they can also be a bad thing.

Advantages

There are several advantages to being a member on a social network website.  One of the advantages is that you will often reconnect with family and friends that you would not have otherwise reconnected with.  People have found many long lost friends and relatives by using social network websites.

It is also a good way to keep in touch with family and friends who do not live near you.  If you add all of your family and friends to your social network page, it is very easy for everyone to keep up with what is going on in everyone else’s lives.
social networking sites 
Finally, you can meet some new and lasting friends by being a member of a social network website.  Meeting a new friend is always a nice experience.

Disadvantages

One of the main disadvantages of using social network websites is that it makes you easy pray for an online stalker.  Social network sites are not the best places in the world for kids to be for this very reason.  A lot of cyber stalking and cyber bullying occurs on most social network sites.  There is also the possibility of a sexual predator playing on your child’s vulnerabilities.  Children should only be on social network sites while they are being closely supervised.

Social networks can be a wonderful tool in keeping in contact with people that it would otherwise be difficult to keep up with.  They can also be a great way to meet new people with the same interests as yours.  However, they may not be the best place for children to frequent regularly.

Home School versus Public School


It used to be that home school was sort of frowned upon.  However, more and more parents are not choosing to pull their children out of the public school system and home school them.  There are many different reasons that parents are doing this, but mainly they feel like the public school system has failed their child in some way or another.  The following paragraphs will take a better look at the subject.

Bullying is a big issue in public schools today.  While the public school systems will claim to have a no tolerance policy, no plan is perfect.  Bullying still occurs daily in most public schools.  This is the main reason that many parents decide to home school their children.  They feel like at home, they can at least concentrate on the studies in front of them, without the fear of being abused by another student.  It is hard for an individual to concentrate on his studies with the constant fear of being attacked.
home school

The main argument against home school is that the student will not receive adequate socialization skill while involved in home school, and that the students will then have trouble with socialization skills as adults.  Home school parents have taken this into consideration, and many activities are available for home school students to participate in regularly as a group.  Many children in home school are also involved in activities such as youth ministry and the church choir.  Martial arts instruction and other sports are other ways that many home school children get the socialization needed.

There are pros and cons when it comes to home school, as well as when it comes to public school.  What is the right choice for one student may not be the right way to go for another.  It is an individual choice of parents who have carefully weighed the pros and cons of both options.

Online Dating the New Craze

There was once a time when the only way to meet a prospect for a date was to go out and meet her at some public place or function.  If you sat in your house every evening after work, and never went out, chances are, you would not have dated much.  Times have definitely changed.  Now all you need is a computer, along with an internet connection, and you are good to go.  Online dating has taken over and now a large percentage of people find their dates off the internet.

Because online dating has become so popular, there are countless different online dating websites to choose from.  An online dating website is a place that will allow males and females to post pictures and information to a profile for other members to read.  When two members feel they may be compatible, they may communicate further.  Essentially, it is meeting new people without ever having to leave your house.  The bar scene is out, and online dating is now in.
online dating chatting

Most online dating websites will offer free membership to the women who decide to become members of the website.  However, some sites will charge all members.  It is often free to browse the different profiles. In order to communicate with other members or to receive contact information, most websites will require a paid subscription.

Many relationships have begun on online dating websites and have lasted for many years.  Many people believe that online dating websites are the perfect solution to finding their soul mates.  This is why the popularity of online dating is at an all time high and the popularity is expected to continue to grow.

There was once a time when people would be embarrassed to admit that they met their mate on an online dating website.  That is no longer the case in this day and age.  It is now the normal thing to do, the expected route to take.

Funerals and funeral planning can be a difficult thing, especially when a loved one dies unexpectedly.  It is a time of mourning and grief and not many people are in their right frame of mind.  Planning a funeral or making funeral arrangements almost always adds to the grief and pain.  Preplanned funerals help eliminate the stress and sadness that the process of planning a funeral can bring a grieving family.

Important Camping Gear to Remember


Important Camping Gear to Remember

With the warmer seasons quickly approaching, many people and families are getting their camping gear together and planning their summer camping trips.  Dads, uncles, grandpas, and sons are all checking their fishing gear, making sure the grills and hotplates are in working order, and all the other stuff that comes with preparation.  If you are planning a camping trip, there is some important camping gear you should always remember to bring.

The first important piece of camping gear all campers should have is a compass.  It is easy to get turned around in the woods, and end up going a great distance in the wrong direction.  By having a compass, you can easily find your way out of the woods should you get lost.

The next piece of camping gear that is highly important is a first aide kit.  It is very important to have a first aide kit readily available when you are camping.  Even the most careful campers get hurt.  It is always best to be prepared for the worst.

When you are going on a camping trip, it is unlikely you will have much access to electricity.  In this case, a lantern is a very important piece of camping gear that you will want to have.  If you have no light source during your trip, there will not be much you can do once it gets dark outside.

Finally, you should always take flares when you go camping.  Flares are good in case of an emergency.  If you need help, you can set off the flares to signal for it.  When someone sees the light emitting from your flare, they will know that you are in need of assistance.

Camping trips can be a lot of fun if you have the right camping gear.  While you are planning your next trip, consider taking the gear mentioned above.
