TATTOOING TREND// beauty

THE BODY ART TREND

Tattoos have become a big trend with some bloggers having some lovely simple ones.
The tattoos are like pieces of art.

Another type of tattooing is a Henna tattoo using a natural plant base to color the skin. It is especially popular in India, Africa and the Middle East countries. Indian brides will have gorgeous tattoos applied to their hands or feet. The intricate designs look like fine lace and look amazing. The henna is an old tradition that dates back thousands of years to Egyptian times.

Many people while on holidays will try or want something different. A tattoo is maybe something you have thought about having. You might come across a place that offers Henna tattoos or BLACK HENNA tattoos. Be aware not all HENNAS are alike.

HENNA - BLACK or BROWN?

SO if you are contemplating a tattoo , a temporary one is a choice using Henna.
Most important to be aware that not all hennas are safe. The natural henna is made from plants, no chemicals and is a brownish color once applied.

There is another BLACK henna which is not safe and uses PPD chemical paraphenylenediamine. at levels that are too high. IT is also used in hair colours but at a much lower levels.

The results from using a Black henna can be severe allergic reactions , where the skin swells and becomes extremely itchy and very painful. Some women and girls who have had these types of tattoos needed months of medical hospital treatment and some were left with scars. Not a pretty sight.

Flying high // travel

B Time to Fly Sumer holidays are around the corner and deciding where to go or what to pack can e daunting experience. So what to pack ? Well after reading how some airlines charge passenger to check the baggage. First I believe the budget airlines started , but now the big name ones have also started to charge it! American Airlines , southwest , Air Canada . And the extra cost if is a jackpot for the airlines. I have not travel with the budget lines but have used some of the others mentioned and I won’t be booking any trips with them! Really what do they think? If the operate a service to transport you and your belongs that should be included , NOT an extra expense. Give you an idea of what they collect in these extra fees then read this report via BBC. Truthfully people need to tell these companies NO . Even a handbag is next to the list. They are making BILLIONS from from these extra fees!...

Pockets please!!/ fashion

Well as the title says…. Pocket s please! This week has been a very painful week. I recently injured my knee badly. Not able to move stand or walk. When finally bit better I finally managed to move . I needed something to wear that I could put my phone in , glasses medicine in. Any dress I thought I could use didn’t have pockets for anything. Why??? When I think back there usually were pocket inserts nicely sewn on inside of slacks or dresses. Now you rarely find that . I guess it’s a cost saving , less material needed and no extra time used sewing a pockrr er r in. Maybe it’s to give an outfit a more neat look, no bulging pockets. Meanwhile mens wear there are always pockets. Do you like outfit with pockets?
