Wedding nail
Perfect French pedicure
Isn't it time you treated yourself to a spa visit that leaves you with immaculate toenails? This foot model has perfectly manicured toenails for a very healthy clean look. Her cuticles were professionally removed and beautifully rounded. Her toenails were painted with a soft light pink polish and modestly decorated with thin pretty white tips. It is a very simple style but it looks so nice. This new pedicure is a perfect summer beauty idea.
Q. Where can I find a nail art salon?
A. If you usually do your own nails, or get basic manicures in one block color, you may be surprised to know the vast majority of nail salons in America offer nail art. According to poll results in an industry magazine, in fact, nail technicians in 92.2% of salons can enhance your nails (Nails mag, March 2007). Call ahead or check nail salon websites to see if art is included in their list of available services. Be specific in your inquiries.
More specific survey results showed a wide range in the types of nail art available. Over 75% of salons say they can do mixed media, but only 15.7% of manicurists are skilled in free-hand airbrushing. That number drops in half if you want photos on your nails. Fortunately, though, 68.3% offer one of the most popular nail art looks: custom French manicures.

How To Massage your man (1)
Amazingly, some men may balk at the idea of receiving an erotic massage. If your husband is reluctant to be rubbed and cherished for a half hour, simply say, "Try this for me. No strings attached. Just lie down and enjoy. If you hate it after five minutes, we'll stop." Men, strangely, often need to be pulled to heaven, kicking and screaming the whole way. If he's a willing participant, get him to do a few minutes of simple stretching beforehand. Have him prepare his body for a massage the same way he'd get ready for a run: a few lunges to loosen the legs, a few arm twirls for the arms and back. His circulation will improve, and his muscle tension will ease up.
Five minutesHave him lie face up on the bed; position yourself behind his head. (Since this is only a 30-minute massage, we're not including the back. But it has a few major erogenous zones there — shoulder blades, lower back, butt — if you have some extra time.)
Spend five minutes on his head and face. Begin by scratching his scalp with your nails. Trace the folds of his ears, the contours of his cheekbones and nose. Next, place your palms on the back of his head, as if you were holding a cantaloupe in cupped hands. Where his neck meets the skull, you'll find little hollows in the bone. These hollows — acupressure points, actually — are little-known erogenous zones. To give them their due, put your fingertips on them and gradually increase the pressure. Then grasp his head at the jaw and pull it toward you gently, stretching his neck muscles. "By pressing the points and stretching muscles, you'll increase his circulation and awaken his senses," says acupressure expert Michael Reed Gach, Ph.D.
The Third Eye (center of the forehead, directly between the eyebrows) and the temples (at the sides of the forehead) are also acupressure points. Gently press the Third Eye for 60 seconds; then lightly rotate your fingers on his temples for 30 seconds. This will relieve tension and allow sexual excitement to flow.
Belly and Hips
Three minutes
Make a three-minute sojourn to the hip region. The area that runs from the belly button to the genitalia is an erogenous zone, so don't neglect it. Start with the navel itself: With well-oiled hands, circle the rim of an innie, or the base camp of an outie (a direct hit might give your husband the willies). Three or four finger-widths down from there, you'll find a super-important spot acupressurists call the Gate of Origin, right over the bladder. Press it very gently (if he didn't pee before the massage began, he may need to now) to "open sexual energy," says Gach — to turn him on, in other words.
"You'll find acupressure points where the legs join the trunk of the body (those thick tendons in the groin). Lean into them gradually with the heel of your hand," advises Gach. "Ask your partner to breathe into your hands; hold this position for a minute or two." His sexual energy is flowing like a raging river by now.

Japanese beauty secrets: Face massage
One of the beauty secrets of Korean and Japanese women is regular face massages. This is usually combined with the double-cleansing method. Massage of the face improves circulation, keep wrinkles away, makes the skin more elastic, lessens stress, helps to clean up pores and helps creams and moisturisers to work better. Ideally, you should massage your face 2-3 times a week. Use an oil blend that will cleanse and moisturise the skin.
- Pour a small amount of the blended oil into the palm of your hand and gently apply all over the face. Avoid your eyes.
- With the backs of your hands, gently tap the skin around the jaw-line and underneath the chin to stimulate the skin cells.
- Apply small circular movements to the chin area, using your thumbs. This will tone, help circulation and eliminate toxins.
- Make an "oooh"-shaped mouth. Massage either side easing out fine lines.
- With your fingertips, press along the top of the cheekbones and massage outward up to the temples to release toxins.
- With the middle fingers, apply pressure to points above the bridge of the nose and underneath the eyebrows. Hold for 5 seconds and smooth across from the inner to the outer corners of the eyebrows and continue up to the temples.
- To relieve tension, apply firm pressure at either side of the temples, and rotate backward.
- Stroke up the forehead to the hairline with the palms of the hands, smoothing out fine lines.

How To Massage Away Lower Back Pain
1. Pick Your Spot: You don't have to massage the part of the body that hurts most. If you're shy about letting a friend touch your aching lower back, for instance, she could help by massaging your shoulders instead. This is because massage creates chemical changes that reduce pain and stress throughout the body. One way it does this is by reducing a brain chemical called substance P that is related to pain. In a TRI study, for example, individuals with a form of muscle pain called fibromyalgia showed less substance P in their saliva (and they reported reduced pain) after a month of twice-weekly massages.
2. De-Stress, Stay Healthy. Massage may boost immunity. Several studies have measured the stress hormone called cortisol in subjects' saliva before and after massage sessions, and found dramatic decreases. Cortisol, which is produced when you are stressed, kills cells important for immunity, so when massage reduces your stress levels and hence the cortisol in your body, it may help you avoid getting a cold or another illness while under stress.
3. Blood Pressure Benefits: Massage reduces hypertension, suggests a good deal of research. This may be because it stimulates pressure receptors that prompt action from the vagus nerve, one of the nerves that emerges from the brain. The vagus nerve regulates blood pressure, as well as other functions. In a 2005 study at the University of South Florida, hypertension patients who received 10 massages of 10 minutes each over three weeks showed significant improvements in blood pressure compared to a control group who simply rested in the same environment without any massage.
4. Technique Tactics: There's little evidence to support one kind of massage over another, says Field, so don't worry about whether your therapist is schooled in Shiatsu, Swedish or some other technique. The key is pressure firm enough to make a temporary indentation in the skin. If you try massage with a partner, use massage oil, which you can find in a health-food store or pharmacist, but test a little on your skin first to make sure you are not allergic.
5. Self Help. You can massage yourself. Although you don't have to massage the part of the body that hurts to relieve pain, targeting that area does tend to help more. One example is massaging the arms. If you're in danger of developing inflamed nerves in your hands or arms from repetitive movements (like typing on a keyboard, or even gripping a steering wheel for hours at a time) try massaging your arms for 15 minutes a day. Stroke from the wrist to the elbow and back down on both sides of the forehand.

Swedish Massage
Generally during Swedish massage you're nude underneath a towel or sheet. The massage therapist uncovers only the part of the body he/she is working on, a technique called draping.
You can keep your underwear on during Swedish massage, and many newcomers do.
During Swedish massage, massage therapists apply massage oil to your skin to facilitate various massage strokes, including the smooth, gliding strokes called effleurage. Other classic Swedish massage moves include kneading, friction, stretching and (sometimes) tapping. Swedish massage promotes relaxation, eases muscle tension and creates other health benefits. It can be slow and gentle or vigorous and bracing, depending on what the therapist wants to achieve.
Feel free to state your preference for pressure during Swedish massage. It can range from light to firm. Swedish massage usually includes some deeper work on areas of specific muscle tension.
If you want more intensive work and firmer pressure, ask for a deep tissue massage. The cost of a Swedish massage will vary, depending on whether you go to a day spa, resort spa, destination spa, a chain like Massage Envy or go to a massage therapist. Swedish massage pricing will also depend on what part of the country you live and how luxurious the spa is.

Facial Massage
How does it work?
When you press or squeeze any part of your body, it increases circulation to that area. The face responds particularly well to touch as it is packed with small, sensitive muscle and so richly endowed with endings.
Tension, and to a certain extent age, causes the connective tissue between the layers of the facial skin and the facial muscle to become less supple over time. As a result habitual expressions such as frown lines, rigid jaws, pursed lips and staring eyes tend to become set as part of the fabric of the face. The gentle pressure of a facial massage can loosen up the facial muscle and allow them to learn to slide back into place more readily after being tensed. The cumulative effect is such that with repeated treatment your face will be left looking relaxed, and therefore younger. Also, because massage stimulates circulation to the face, your complexion will be toned and glowing.
The muscles of the face are extremely delicate. Massage can be tremendously beneficial, but if given too deeply or frequently, it can encourage the muscles to lengthen. So the comparative fragility of older muscles and their adjacent tissues are important to bear in mind.
The scalp is a different matter and can be massaged quite vigorously without any harm, with many benefits for the face. Sensitive skin, which is typically fair and dry, should also be massaged with great care. It is more susceptible to the kind of surface damage that causes 멳roken veins� or couperose (which are not actually broken, but simply closer than usual to the surface, so more visible, and sluggish in constricting action).
A 4-Minute Massage RoutineYou can follow this routine after removing make-up using carrier oil or while applying your moisturizing cream. Once you have memorized the routine if should take no more than three to four minutes, so try to do it ever day. If you have a specific area that you need to concentrate on, incorporate one of the massages from the routine.
Pour just under a teaspoon of oil into one hand, rub it into both hands and apply the oil to your neck and face in long, upward and outward sweeping movements. Apply it very sparingly around your eyes, where the skin is most delicate, using the ring finger of both hands.
Using alternate hands, slide up your neck form the base to your jaw bone, turning the hands as necessary and working lightly over your windpipe. Cover your whole neck form ear to ear
Using the first and middle fingers of each hand, slide firmly along your jaw line from your chin to the front of your ears. Your index finger should be on top of your jaw and the middle finger underneath.
With your fingers together and hands pointing up to your brow, holding the fingers straight, press firmly with the edge of your hands either side of your nose. Hold for three to four seconds. Repeat.
Release the pressure slightly and, rolling your hands on to your cheeks, slide your hands outwards with your index fingers stopping in front of your ears and apply a firm pressure. Hold for three to four seconds. Repeat.
With your fingers held in loose fists underneath your chin slide both thumbs upwards symmetrically around the corners of your mouth, in under your nose, around your nostrils and lightly off over the tip of your nose.
With the middle and ring fingers of each hand, starting at the inner corners of your eyebrows, slide firmly outwards over your eyebrows and using your ring finger only, trace very lightly inwards underneath your eyes.
With the ring finger of each hand, slide lightly outwards over your closed eyelids and then lightly underneath each eye.
With your fingers together and the index fingers leading the way, alternately smooth your hands up to the hairline in a firm lifting movement, starting between the eyebrows and finishing at the hairline.
Close your eyes and, with the fingers together and using the whole of both hands slightly cupped to produce a gentle suction, apply a firm pressure to the face, holding for a second before releasing. Then, moving the hands outwards from the nose towards the ears, cover the whole face, moving the hands up and down to cover the area between the chin and hairline.
With your fingers together and using the whole of the hand, apply pressure with the right hand to the left side of the neck, working from the base of the neck to the jaw but avoiding the windpipe. Repeat with the left hand, applying pressure to the right side of the neck.
