The product is very easy to use and it is like your mascara stick. Apply it and watch it grow. Besides growing, it also makes the lashes thicker and fuller. I guess it will give you an attractive look. However a word of caution, before using the product, make sure you look at the product label to see if you are sensitive to any of the ingredients used. You can just use a small amount on your skin to test it.

Ironing is another challenge to me. Often I cannot get it right and do a good job on it. However I am still discovering new ways of doing so.
Some handy tips on ironing
– Iron in a position where you are comfortable, the ironing board height must be right for your position so that you do not get backache.
– Iron in a cooling room, as the heat from the iron can make you all sweaty and uncomfortable. You can use some soothing music to lighten up the mood.
– Place a aluminum sheet below your iron board cover. It can reflect heat so that it automatically iron both side of your garment.
– You can use quick spray starch to ease your ironing. Just add 1 tablespoon of cornstarch to 2 cups of water, stir it and pour it into a sprayer. Spray it on to the garment when ironing.
Here is a video that show you how to iron and fold your bed sheets.

You know what is the natural way of getting rid of smelly shoes stink? It is very simple. All you have to do is to take some newspaper and crush it, make it into a ball. Stuff it into your shoes. Put it there over night. Next morning the bad odor will be gone.
Newspaper has carbon and carbon is the best thing to absorb bad odor. You can do the same for your fridge.

It is the most natural way to clean your microwave. It is really simple. All you need is a microwave container, I use one of my pyrex bowl. Fill half with water. Cut 1 lemon into 2 pieces and throw it in.
Set it on high for 25-30 minutes. After that, keep it close for 1 minute for the lemon water vapor to fill up the inside. Take a cloth and start to wipe off the dirt inside. The stain will come off easy. It is amazing.
You don’t need any strong chemical to remove stain. Some chemical can leave residue inside your microwave which may end up in your food.
At the end of it, it gives a nice lemon smell too!
