让指甲呼吸

◎护甲好招１：搽指甲油前先上底液

　　搽指甲油前一定要先搽一层底液，不管是增厚液或是硬甲油都可以。搽了这一层，指甲油会变得比较好卸，卸了以后指甲也不容易发黄或断裂。

◎护甲好招２：修厚皮

　　指甲旁边的厚皮，可以先泡温水或用温水洗过手后，再用指甲硬皮锉刀搓掉，这种指甲厚皮锉刀不像指甲锉刀那么粗，是专门用来对付厚皮的。千万不要用剪刀剪厚皮，不仅容易剪到肉，也容易使长出来的新皮凹凸不平。不管是手还是脚的指甲，都要这样处理喔！

◎护甲好招３：爱用护手霜

　　我推荐露得清护手霜，这个护手霜是可以连指甲都一起保养的，它会让你的皮肤与指甲都一起变健康。护手霜不是搽上皮肤表面就算OK，而是要一根根指头仔细地按摩，连指甲附近的硬皮和指甲表面也要这么做。

◎护甲好招４：搽增厚液加强保养

　　指甲要是有断裂或是开花的问题，搽指甲增厚液能有效改善，L'OREAL有出这款产品。

◎护甲好招５：修剪得宜

　　剪指甲别太用力，更不要剪到肉里，长度和指尖平行就好，稍微留下一条细白的指甲最好看。用专用指甲剪刀剪出大概的形状后，通常会产生一些不规则的小凸角，这时再用指缘硬皮锉刀将它锉成整齐的形状。至于是方形还是椭圆形，看你自己喜欢啰！

◎护甲好招６：让指甲休息

　　我曾看过李奥纳多的专访，他说他最不喜欢指甲油剥落的女生。一般的指甲油搽上三天就会有些轻微剥落，这时最好就把它卸掉，顺便让指甲呼吸一下新鲜空气吧！

　　如果你觉得让指甲休息时，空在那里很丑的话，可以搽些指甲增厚液或是指甲保养液在上头，它有透明亮面指甲油的效果，又兼具保养的作用。

◎护甲好招７：做水晶指甲前要三思

　　我这美容大王也曾做过水晶指甲，不过要先忠告大家的是，那是一条不归路！！水晶指甲是用水晶粉加上化学液体覆盖在指甲上，形成固态后，再把多出 来的指甲修掉，相当耗时。水晶指甲看起来亮亮硬硬的，还可以磨成成自己喜欢的各种形状，它很坚固，上各种颜色效果看起来都相当漂亮。很多指甲比较小片的女 生搽指甲油不好看，或是做指甲彩绘也无法满足自己，就会选择水晶指甲，艺人当中就有挺多人喜欢做水晶指甲的。

不过只要做了水晶指甲，每个礼拜都必须回店里去补后面长出来的指甲，如果有天你卸掉了水晶指甲，你会发现自己的指甲变得又薄又软又容易断裂，这是因为指甲 长期不使用，用水晶指甲替代自己的指甲，指甲就逐渐退化了。我就曾发生过这样的问题，做了水晶指甲两个月后去卸掉，但水晶指甲非常难拆，必须要用酒精包 住，等软掉再抠掉，抠不掉的还必须用磨刀来磨……这一趟折腾下来，我的指甲花了近半年才恢复正常，很受伤！

選用對的眼霜

黑眼圈是因为长期卸妆不干净，所导致的彩妆色素沉淀。

　　我时常听有人这样说，卸眼妆时总要卸个十遍八遍。长期这样卸下来，并非是彩妆的色素造成黑眼圈，而是你过于频繁的刺激眼周肌肤，才导致的黑眼圈！脆弱的眼周很容易因揉搓的刺激产生轻微发炎现象，导致黑色素的异常增生。

黑眼圈可分为以下几种类型，找出自己黑眼圈的类型，再挑选适合自己的眼霜吧！

　 　1 血管型：眼下的血管在平躺时，能够随着眼尾的方向流向颈部。然而，若是熬夜、加班、狂欢，一直坐或站的姿势，使得眼下血管受到地心引力影响，无法顺着眼尾 方向顺利流动，就会产生血液迟滞的问题，不流动的血液造成血红素沉淀，同时也使得血红素因缺氧颜色变得更加暗沉，在外观上，形成青紫色的眼周暗沉问题。另 外，有些人天生有过敏性鼻炎鼻塞的问题，因为鼻子过敏发炎而导致眼下血管通透性增加，造成血液沉积，而产生类似的青紫色黑眼圈。

　　2 胆红素型：眼部过度疲惫、用眼过度，容易使得眼下的血红素进一步代谢而转变为胆红素，因而产生类似“鸭血”般的猪肝红色素沉淀。

　　3 黑色素型：过度频繁地刺激眼周肌肤，或是卸眼妆过于频繁刺激，都容易导致眼周出现褐色的黑色素沉淀。特别容易发生在眼尾以及眼头上方。此外，受到遗传影响，有人天生眼周就容易有褐色黑眼圈的出现。

　　4 松弛型：有人天生眼皮较松，加上眼周脂肪较少，松弛加上凹陷的眼皮肌肤皱缩在一块，在视觉上就会令人感觉颜色较深，特别是在下眼皮靠近眼头以及泪沟的位置，除了松弛之外，还伴随着浮肿现象，使眼下出现半月型的黑色阴影，也使你看起来更加疲惫苍老。

Female guides cannot share same room with male colleagues

KUALA LUMPUR: The Tourism Ministry will revoke the licences of tour operators that force female tourist guides to share rooms with male colleagues.

Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ng Yen Yen said the practice had “gone on too long” and that a strong message should be sent to prevent further occurrences.

“As the ministry’s woman leader, I must be responsible for the safety of the women in the industry,” she said at a press conference yesterday.

Dr Ng said while the decision might not be acceptable to many in the industry, the ministry had no choice but to ensure the safety of the female workers in the industry.

She said a circular would be distributed to all tourism companies through the Malaysia Association of Tour and Travel Agents.

Dr Ng said the ministry would revoke the licences of the companies the moment they were found guilty of committing the offence.

Dr Ng was Deputy Culture, Arts and Tourism Minister from 1999 to 2003.

A warning was issued in 2006 by the ministry against companies that forced their female guides to share rooms with men.

Last month, the Malaysian Women Tourist Guide Association voiced out against the practice on International Women’s Day.

On another matter, Dr Ng said the ministry would be launching a project dubbed “The Big Swing” to divert foreign tourists to Malaysia who were about to cancel their holiday plans to other Asean countries, especially Thailand, because of political problems.

Dr Ng said the programme, which involved the ministry, Tourism Malaysia and the private sector, would bring visitors to Malaysia instead if they decided not to go to their original destinations.

“We have asked our tourism operators to work closely with the operators and agencies of Thailand to seek ways to assist them to address the current scenario. It’s a win-win effort between our agencies and Thai-land’s,” she said.

She added that the ministry would also instruct all officers overseas to assure travellers that Asean countries were safe.

Dr Ng said while the protests in Thailand had not decreased international tourist arrivals to Malaysia and the region, a special committee was set up to proactively deal with issues that could hurt the tourism industry here. -- TheStar

内心冰度15℃

kimkim给我玩的个性测试《你内心是否冰冷一片》 ，我得到的结果竟然只有15度。最糟糕的是，怎么我变得自我了？过去，有人说，我的自我保护意识很强，要靠近很容易，可是要深入了解时，我会设下一面透明的墙，跟别人保持距离。很难再去相信别人，为什么呢？一直都很讨厌狂傲自大的人，没想到原来自大的人就是我，难怪会越来越讨厌自己。不喜欢这样冰冷的感觉，啊利需要加温。

D、内心冰度：15°C

　　你通常并不会表现得多热情，不是一个喜欢哗众取宠的人，在很多时候你都是安静地呆在一边看着事情发展变化，会给人稳重和可靠、温暖的印象，往往 不知不觉就对你产生好感。这样的你，实际对很多事情都觉得无所谓，不是一个喜好强烈的人，因此你不会为小事而固执己见，性格和顺，不固执，会给人一份安全 感。你会对朋友表现出热情，但是实际只有你自己心里清楚，你实际是个很自我的人，即使是跟很好的朋友，你也还是会保持一个适当的距离，并不会真的让人进入 自己的内心。

拯救25岁后“黄脸婆”肌肤

疲劳时，睡眠不足时，情绪低落时……我们的肌肤都会变得又黄又黑，没有丝毫光泽而言，针对此种情况，皮肤科医生谓之为“暗沉”。但“暗沉”究竟是什么实际上，当我们过了25岁以后，皮肤就会经常发暗，有时就像蒙着一层不干净的黄气，有时又感觉灰头土脸的。让我们为你找出皮肤沉暗的四大因素，克服黄脸婆困扰!


美白保湿再美白

　　美白前先保湿，可以提高皮肤角质层的含水量，健全皮肤表层细胞组织，而且能够避免使用美白产品干燥时所产生的敏感。尤其适用于敏感和干性皮肤，以及混合偏干性的皮肤。角质层过薄的皮肤，就更应该注意这一点了，在使用美白产品之前，先用保湿精华素护理皮肤。　

　　美白之母

　 　因为有了阳光的照射，激活麦拉宁细胞后，才有了黑色素的生存条件，所以防晒对于美白是多么的重要。在选择美白产品时，最好挑含有防晒成分的产品，如果没 有，可以使用具有防晒效果的隔离霜或防晒霜。在防晒霜的选择上，一定要选择同时抗UVA和UVB两种波长的防晒产品，这样才能够同时有效地防晒伤和防晒 黑。一般说来，敏感和干性皮肤，适合物理性防晒产品，混合和油性皮肤可以选择化学性防晒产品。外出的时候，建议配一瓶防晒喷雾，轻轻一喷，为美白加分!

　吃美白的食物

　　含有维他命C、E的食物，尤其是熟西红柿，防晒又美白。猕猴桃、橙子、苹果、草莓、绿叶青菜、胡萝卜、燕麦、花生、青椒等都是不错的抗氧化和美白食物呢!另外，摄入的食物是否使色素沉淀，也是美白能否见效的关键。我们要少吃酸性食物，比如肉类、油脂、酒类、白糖等。

　　了解美白成分

　　使用的美白产品中主要成分的作用是什么，你知道吗多数人都很少涉及这部分的常识，所以常常是站到化妆品专柜前不知所措。了解一些经典的美白成分吧，就不用担心自己到商场化妆品专柜，只能傻呼呼的听导购小姐说什么是什么了。

　　眼部美白

　　别忘了眼部的防晒和美白。选择含有维他命A、C等有效成分的眼霜，或者是防晒型的眼霜，都是帮助眼部美白的重要环节。

有個朋友從來不吃醬油、黑醬油。。。皮膚真的很白~

苦瓜降血壓和高血糖？

　国内外的相关研究机构自20世纪60年代以来，已验证苦瓜对糖尿病治疗的功效。

苦瓜含有降血压、血糖成分。苦瓜的营养成分，包含丰富的维生素C，含量约为120毫克，比草莓(80毫克)和柠檬(90毫克)还要高。矿物质方面，苦瓜含有钾，可有效降低血压。另外还含有可防癌、明目的胡萝卜素。

　　科学研究显示，苦瓜能降低血糖值的原因，在于苦瓜种子含有和胰岛素功能相似的蛋白质。众所周知，胰岛素具有使血液中的葡萄糖转换为热量的作用，借此可以调节人体的血糖，使它保持在正常的状态下。

　　同理，苦瓜的果实或种子的萃取物也能促进糖分分解，具有使过剩糖分转化为热量的作用，改善体内的脂肪平衡。此外，它还可消除成为糖尿病诱因的肥胖或便秘。因此，血糖值较高的人，不妨每天都喝苦瓜汁。

　　中国自古以来，就把苦瓜当作药用植物来利用。在《救荒本草》和《本草纲目》等古文献里，都曾经提到苦瓜。在糖尿病方面，都强调它能够“止渴”、“主治烦渴引饮”等。

　　明代大药物学家李时珍说：“苦瓜性味苦、寒、无毒，具有除邪热、解劳乏、清心明目、益气壮阳之功效。”苦瓜对于糖尿病三大并发症之一的视网膜症很有疗效。

　　糖尿病患者，往往会因为高血糖而使得白血球受到影响，免疫力减退，容易罹患感染症，不但容易感冒，而且容易得皮肤化脓症。这时，除了吃苦瓜之外，苦瓜叶子和藤蔓也有治疗效果。但是，任何具有药效的蔬菜都不可能直接大量地吃，因此，将其做成汤或苦瓜汁等，更易于摄取与吸收。

　　苦瓜汁的做法：

　　①苦瓜放入果汁机中搅拌之后，过滤，取出汁液。

　　②可以搭配苏打水和苹果汁等。

　　③加入蜂蜜或砂糖调味。

Uses of these games in the English language classroom

Battleships can be used in children’s classes by putting grammar along the top and side of the board so that students have to form a sentence to choose a square. The strategy of the game remains but with a language focus.

Bingo can be used as it is to practise numbers. You can adapt the game to focus on larger numbers or pronunciation problems like the difference between “13” and “30”. Or you can use vocabulary; say the word and the students have to cover the correct picture. It can be adapted to any language item and it’s a great way to finish off a lesson, especially with children.

Charades: the idea of Charades is good but we usually use books, films & TV shows which students in other countries will probably be unfamiliar with. In this case you should decide in advance what culturally-specific or internationally known items to use, and write these on slips of paper which students choose at random. For more of a language focus, you may wish to jot down verbs or occupations which students have to mime.

Dominoes is good for practising phrasal verbs, verb collocations and prefixes & suffixes. Adapt the pieces so that they match up (e.g. take + out, lay + down, get + on) so the students have to match them in the game.

Hangman: letters and basic words are really good for beginners. This is good for the last 5 minutes if you need a filler!

Monopoly could be useful for a lesson on money, reading cards, and using questions dealing with buying & selling. It is not very communicative though, and is too long.

Pictionary is great fun in the classroom at all levels - try using it as a warmer at the beginning of the class. Split the class into teams - one player from each team comes to the front and the teacher shows them a word. They return to their team to draw the word; the first team to guess wins a point.

Tic Tac Toe (Noughts and Crosses) can be adapted easily by putting a word such as a modal verbs, idioms, phrasal verbs, or preposition in each square of the grid on the whiteboard. A team has to make a correct sentence with it before they can claim the square. Again, it is a great way of revising at the end of the week.

Trivial Pursuit: You could invent your own version using facts you have dropped into lessons and general knowledge (avoiding culturally specific questions).

Twister may be suitable for small children’s classes to practise colours and body parts.

20 Questions provides great speaking practice, especially if done in pairs. You should insist on totally accurate questions; students generally have a lot of problems with this form.

Scrabble can be easily used in the classroom, but use it sparingly as it doesn’t have any communication or specific language focus. You will also need to provide more than the normal 7 letters per player.

Backgammon Unable to come up with any useful purpose to this game for the EFL classroom!

爱情字典

在爱情字典里，爱情应该是世界上最伟大的记载。神圣的爱情故事里，融不下一粒小小的沙子。双鱼可以一哭二闹三上吊，相信很多热恋中的情侣也会这样。有时我 想，也许，我也会是这样的一条鱼，当个为了爱，义无反顾，为了另一半可以作任何牺牲，对他千依百顺，百般讨好，学他喜欢的，做他喜欢的，就像全世界只剩下 我们两个人。然而，我办不到！

爱情和面包摆在眼前，我会很势力眼的选择后者，抛弃前者。虽然，我愿意为了他去学他喜欢的，不管我多么不喜欢，我也会尝试让 自己喜欢他喜欢的。。。甚至我可能会忘记原来我最喜欢的是什么？但是，我会坚持我要的坚持，我还是我，我会尝试喜欢你的喜欢，但我不会喜欢你喜欢的全部， 因为我也不期望你能喜欢我喜欢的全部。

爱情不是数学题，不能作比较，不是一个方程式就能点算清楚。对爱付出没有错，但是一味麻木的付出，那就不再叫做爱 情，那是种施舍。难听说一句，它是种可悲又失败的投资。投资错误，只会让付出的一方伤痕累累。或许，我现在有口说人，没口说自己。或许，某一天，我就是那 个失败又可悲的投资者，但是，我希望，在我失去理智前，记起我曾经说过的这段话，爱情是两个人共同去创造的，不管谁付出多与少，但绝对不是一味麻木的付出 直到失去原来的自己。如果真有这么一天，希望，我身边的朋友会提醒我，“这世界上除了爱情，还有亲情、友情。。。做回你自己！珍惜自己！珍惜身边的人！做回那无情的双鱼也没关系！生活像天平，需要不同的感情去平衡，不要只是为了爱情而活，应该为了‘爱’和‘情’而活，那人生才有意义”。

矛盾，因为爱情而矛盾。

年龄会是你爱情的障碍吗

描述：随着社会越来越摩登，世俗的观念也渐渐地被屏弃了，我行我素的年轻人们开始按照自己的感觉来决定另一半，因此出现了很多老少配，姐弟恋，明星们亦是如此，那么在此风盛行的社会中，你觉得年龄会影响爱情的质量吗？你是怎样看待年龄差很大的爱情的呢？ 〉〉開始測試〈〈

結果：答案B
你觉得年龄差别会影响自己爱情的质量，对此会有些在意，太老太小的不要，而且十分看重代沟问题。 你需要的是一个能和你相互商量、共同度过今后岁月的对象，而不是要照顾你或者靠你来照顾的男人。爱情、婚姻、家庭的平等对于你来说是十分必要的。象你如此 有思想的女性，其实可以屏弃代沟这种看法，年长者里也不乏拥有时尚思想的，年轻人里也有少年老成的，只要不是岁数相差到自己不能接受的范围，还是尝试一下 这样有新鲜感的爱情吧~~


前幾天報章上說，42嵗的周海媚跟一個24嵗的内地“李准基”拍拖。又一對演藝圈裏的姐弟戀情曝光！過去，姐弟戀或忘年戀都不怎麽被祝福，但是現在大家都懂得尊重愛情其實是屬於兩個人的事情，只要他們相處得愉快，彼此都喜歡對方就好了。然而，姐弟戀有沒有一個限制？普遍大衆所能接受的相差1、2年，還是5年、8年、10年。。。？3年一代溝，這句老話不知道還算不算管用？不過年齡接近些，思想也會靠近點吧？

是不是每個人都可以接受姐弟戀呢？也許你不介意，但是難保你的家人可以抛開傳統的枷鎖、也許周遭鄰居的指指點點、朋友們不經意的一些玩笑或一些揶揄，有時會造成無形的傷害。比如聚會裏，女友比男友打扮更成熟，朋友第一次見面新認識問道‘這是你姐姐嗎？’ 不知道男生會不會在意？也許他沒有，那麽女生呢？可能這個也不重要吧，外表，每個人都終究會變老、會有皺紋、慢慢衰退的時候，但是心智和思想成熟終得是需要的吧。難不成，還要姐姐好像媽媽照顧孩子般的服侍男友，大小事都需要為他操勞，反而自己有事他卻幫不上，不會解決，也無法諒解你的感受，那麽不是很辛苦嗎？

睡眠分爲幾種類型

我應該是屬於夜貓型吧？！最近出奇的早起身，自己也覺得反常。 -.-"

不同的人，其睡眠习惯也不一样。根据入睡时间和起床时间，睡眠大致可以分为四种：

（1）早睡早起型：晚上10点前上床，早上5点左右起床，是一种被认为最健康的睡眠模式。这种睡眠模式的人，中午前精神特别好，下午稍差，晚上最差。如果中午适当午睡，将一天精力充沛。

（2）早睡晚起型：晚上10点前上床，早上7点以后起床。这种睡眠模式的人，由于睡眠时间长，入睡较迟，熟睡时间相对较短，整夜的睡眠比较浅，不能熟睡。白天精神好，但是到了傍晚后精神明显变差。

（3）晚睡早起型：深夜12点以后上床，早上6点左右起床。这种睡眠模式的人，容易入睡，睡得也很熟。白天的精力不如晚上，喜欢在夜里从事各种工作活动。

（4）晚睡晚起型：夜猫型，深夜12点以后上床，早上9点以后起床。这种睡眠模式的人，多数有睡眠不足的感觉，上午会感到头脑不清，下午会稍好转。

　　睡眠的类型，主要都是长期的生活及工作安排培养起来的，它不存在明显的好坏差别，主要因人而异，只要能保持充分的精力进行工作生活就无可厚非，但是，如果你每天都精神不振，那么你的睡眠类型可能就有问题了。经过一段时间的调整，你可以改变现在有问题的睡眠类型。

马尾辫Milkmaid braid：

2009春夏，仍然崇尚极简主义，提倡发型简约化，以看似简单的造型，实际表现出独特的风尚气质，平滑的马尾辫是极简发型的经典代表，两鬓的头发置于耳后能突出面部轮廓，打造自然精致的脸部印象。

在打造本季流行的马尾辫时，则要掌握“光洁平滑，自然松散”的原则，首先要选择恰当的洗发露 和护发素，令头发更丰盈健康平滑顺直；随后将八分干的头发分成数缕，涂上适量强力造型摩丝，用手插入头发揉搓，用吹风机吹干；再将两鬓和剩余的头发全部梳 到脑后，用手抓紧，在后脑勺中央位置用发带固定；最后用手指将发梢轻轻的拨散，将发辫上端的头发弄蓬松，自然散在脑后，这样能更好地衬托出垂感马尾的飘 逸。

OLAY及Neutrogena面膜含防腐劑

不少女士都愛敷面膜保養肌膚，但台灣 消費者文教基金會（消基會）一項針對當地美容面膜抽樣檢測發現，在抽驗的20個樣本中，15個樣本含防腐劑，當中兩款在中國製的Neutrogena及OLAY面膜，更驗出含兩種防腐劑，但本報記者昨日在本港多家大型日用品連鎖店舖仍輕易購得兩款面膜。

台消基會驗出15牌子含防腐劑

本報在截稿前曾致電兩個品牌在港的代理商，但一直未有人接聽。本港消委會 發言人表示，暫時未知會如何處理兩款產品，當局可能會在假期後，先看台灣方面的報告，了解當地的安全標準，才作判斷。海關 則稱會了解事件，如發現不安全的消費品，將會採取適當的行動。

消基會的化驗結果顯示，雖然15個面膜樣本含「對羥基苯甲酸酯類」防腐劑，但全部含量都在台灣衛署規定限量1%以下的標準內，但台灣消基會秘書長吳 家誠點名批評兩款在中國生產的面膜品牌，分別是在港亦頗普遍的Neutrogena「水潤精華保濕面膜」，內含「對羥基苯甲酸甲酯」和「對羥基苯甲酸乙 酯」兩種防腐劑；以及OLAY「自然柔白面膜」，內含「對羥基苯甲酸乙酯」和「對羥基苯甲酸丙酯」兩種防腐劑。

含量未超標 消基會﹕根本毋須添加

吳氏批評，面膜根本毋須添加防腐劑，但廠商為延長使用期限，常作不當的添加，可能會令長期使用的消費者有潛在風險，他又指台灣的衛生標準太寬鬆，長 期接觸防腐劑的消費者，會令皮膚愈來愈乾燥，甚至可能致癌。吳家誠更引述國外研究指出，「對羥基苯甲酸酯類」會破壞皮膚皮脂膜，讓皮膚變得乾燥，降低分泌 皮脂功能，甚至引起接觸性皮膚炎 。

被台灣當局點名的兩款面膜，在本港亦有售，昨日本 報記者分別在莎莎、卓悅、屈臣市及萬寧仍發現有關貨品出售，未被落架。卓悅的售貨員表示，未聽過有面膜被驗出含防腐劑的消息：「無收到通知喎，頭先新聞都無講……如果真係有事，我哋咪落架囉。」

Neutrogena及OLAY兩款面膜的售價約60至90元左右。其中Neutrogena盒上聲稱，面膜中含高效水分精華，「即時提升肌膚水分 14倍的同時，在肌膚表面形成鎖水層，防止底層水分在毛孔流失」。OLAY面膜則稱可「幫助改善肌膚柔白及水潤狀况」、「使肌膚如牛奶般柔白細滑」。唯兩 盒面膜的包裝上，均無標明成分含有防腐劑。 (資料來源：明報)
