Is it safe to take ear ring out? (4 and a half weeks after piercing)?

I’ve had a ear ring in my ear for 4 and a half weeks since I got it pierced, I’ve been cleaning the bar with cotton wool buds 2-3 times a day and I want to take it out to clean the bar properly then put it back in, would it be safe too? and would it bleed or hurt?

You are suppose to wait 2 to 3 months before taking your ear ring out. The cut in your ear may not be completely healed and the hole on your ear could close up. It may hurt a little too when you take it out, Just wait it out. As long as you are cleaning the bar, you’ll be fine. No need to take it out.

Tips for buying Wool Scarves Wool Shawls Cashmere Pashmina Wool

Wool scarves and wool shawls are a must have for fall winter and spring.  Scarves & shawls are a must have men and women’s accessory. The wool scarves can be the nicest Merino wool scarves or just having a winter wool scarf is a bonus.

 

Wool shawls from India are very popular. I love cashmere wool from India & Nepal. Cashmere scarves & shawls from Inner Mongolia are super soft and luxurious. The Cashmere scarves from England are a hot favorite for gifts and make a statement.

 

My favorite wool scarves are the solid wool scarves in Black, red, dark brown. Navy blue, burgundy, purple & ivory white. Women’s wool scarves do also come in paisley designs from India. The Cashmere Pashmina Scarves are a hot pick. Warmth and luxurious softness is the key. Nepal Pashmina Wool Scarves have the advantage of light weight and good warmth. There’s so much to choose from. As a consumer we need to determine what we are looking for.

 

Some tips to buying a wool scarf / shawl/wrap:

How warm does the scarf need to be depending on where you are located and what season is it for? If you located in VA, NC, SC, TX, FL then a 2 ply  warm scarf or cashmere shawl wrap is great. If you want the added ply of a 3-4 ply wool shawl or cashmere wool shawl it is a good decision. Cashmere Pashmina is the thinnest yarn so even a 3 ply is not a heavy weight scarf wrap. As the ply goes up so does the price.  Look for stores with sales and good service. As one without the other is useless.

When buying Wool Shawls do pay attention to the size. If you are a tall person or plus size go with wider coverage and length for added comfort and style. Women’s shawls & wraps typically are 30″ x 80″. The Ruana wrap is the best. It has long coverage in front, back sides and the benefit of a neckline to hold things in place. Unlike a poncho it is open so it is worn as a shawl wrap. Wonderful easy to wear accessory hence the growing popularity of the Ruana wrap especially in fall winter and spring.

 
Last but not the least always shop for Discounted shawls & scarves and stay within your budget. If you find a store with a good sale and get a great deal on a 3 ply wrap then that is a better buy than a 2 ply. When shopping online use keywords like Discount Cashmere scarf, cheap Pashmina shawls, cashmere shawl sale, cheap wool scarves. Some sites online never pick up the phone and never return calls That is a warning to stay away from them. Sites that have good service care about a customer’s needs and answer queries promptly and efficiently.

 

YoursElegantly.com is an online Wool scarves, Cashmere Scarves & Wraps, Pashmina site that rocks! Great collection of Cashmere Pashmina & silk at affordable pricing and service that will make you smile. Shop the difference!

Recent Grads and Young Professionals and job hunters…?

Since you may be just starting out and establishing yourself, it is likely that money is a concern for you, so I would like your thoughts: is there interest in buying stylish, made-to-measure shirts, suits and topcoats within this group?

I want to offer very affordable garments that give you a noticeable presence in the office, lounge and an edge over your peers. These garments would be made specifically to fit your body.

The garments are of impeccable quality and classically styled, with fine detail and stitching that belie the price.

My website would provide you with clear instructions to acquire body measurements, and you would select the fabric, patterns and colors. I plan to stock the best cashmere, wool, silk, linen, cotton, etc.

This amounts to approx. $350 per suit, compared with $1000 for off-the-shelf designer labels.

Please comment. Thank you.

can some one re-word this please?

Mexico is known worldwide for its folk art traditions, mostly derived from the indigenous and Spanish crafts. Pre-Columbian art thrived over a wide timescale, from 1800 BC to AD 1500. Certain artistic characteristics were repeated throughout the region, namely a preference for angular, linear patterns, and three-dimensional ceramics. Notable handicrafts include clay pottery from the valley of Oaxaca and the animal figures from the village of Tonala. Colorfully embroidered cotton garments, cotton or wool shawls and outer garments, and colorful baskets and rugs are seen everywhere. Mexico is also known for its pre-Columbian architecture, especially for public, ceremonial and urban monumental buildings and structures.

Mexico is known worldwide for it’s traditional folk art. Such art holds roots in both Spanish and indigenous crafts. Certain artistic characteristics are found repeatedly throughout the region; including angular and linear patterns, as well as styles in three-dimensional ceramics. From the Valley of Oaxaca, one finds notable clay pottery, and in the Village of Tonala, animal figures. Vividly embroidered cotton and wool garments such as shawls and outer garments are also prominently sold throughout the region, partnered by colorful baskets and rugs.

(Your second sentence and last sentences do not fit into your theme. In these you are speaking only of the indigenous art, not the Spanish. The rest of the paragraph talks about the combination of the two cultures into an art form. Maybe begin a new paragraph like this:)

Apart from Spanish influence, pre-Colombian art thrived over the wide time scale of 1800 BC until AD 1500. Concerning such styles, Mexico is known for its indigenous architecture, especially for public, ceremonial, and urban monumental structures. (Then possibly give an example of such use, and maybe Aztec art references to support more background in pre-Colombian art styles)

my cold water fish tank has got a film all over bottom like fine cotton wool ,water changed last week?

The film you’re seeing could be just waste that has gathered at the bottom in the substrate of your aquarium.

Are you performing weekly water changes? Do you use a siphon when cleaning your tank so that you suck up any dirt/uneaten food particles from the bottom? That’s essential if you want a clean aquarium. Without sucking bits of those pieces up, they’ll build up too fast whieh will make the ammonia in your aquarium skyrocket. Just taking out 25% of the water and replacing it won’t really get rid of the excess food and waste sitting at the bottom.

Merino Wool – The Last Word in Aircraft Seat Covers

Aircraft seat covers come in a wide variety of materials and designs. Yet for years now, merino wool has been the favorite of experts in the aviation industry, and for good reason. The increasing popularity of merino wool aircraft seat covers has as much to do with safety as it does with comfort.

Incomparable Comfort
Of the many alternatives, merino wool is arguably the most comfortable material available for airplane seat coverings. Its soft, luxurious feel is second to none. They will keep you cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Most pilots who try it once will never use anything else.

When spending any considerable amount of time in an aircraft seat, comfort should not be sacrificed. The benefits of a quality, comfortable cover will make an incredible difference. The aches and pains of an uncomfortable seat will quickly justify the upgrade.

Never Sacrifice Safety
In addition to being one of the most comfortable options available, merino wool aircraft seat coverings offer great safety benefits. Wool is naturally flame resistant and a quality product will meet FAA flame compliance requirements.

What’s more, most quality wool covers are custom made, meaning they won’t slip or scoot on the seat. The thick wool of a quality seat cover will also improve circulation, meaning you stay more alert and more comfortable throughout the flight.

Extend the Life of Your Aircraft Seats
Not only will wool covers provide a comfortable and safe flight, they will dramatically decrease the wear and tear on your seats. Unlike thin covers, the dense wool will completely protect your seats. You can rest easy, knowing that your seats will stay in perfect condition.

Easy Cleaning, Easy Care
Sheepskin is one of the easiest aircraft seat covering materials to care for and cleaning is a breeze. Unlike many fabrics with limited and expensive cleaning options, sheepskin requires very little work.

Most sheepskin products can be washed with any mild detergent, either by hand or in a washing machine on a gentle cycle with low heat. They can even be dropped off at a dry cleaner. Of course, you will want to refer to the washing instructions on your specific aircraft seat cover.

What to Look For in a Seat Cover
When choosing an aircraft seat cover of any type, there are a few important things to consider. The first is choosing a high quality provider with a sound reputation in the business. Your seat cover will be of great importance for comfort, safety and the protection of your seats. Quality should never be sacrificed.

Finally, most quality aircraft seat covers are custom made. By choosing a custom-made cover, you’ll never have to worry about it sliding around on your seat. The fit should be snug and secure. Whatever seat covers you consider for your aircraft, you will want to give merino wool a try. For the comfort, safety and wonderfully soft feel, you won’t be able to beat it.

Cleansing Creams Homemade

Cleansing creams are used not only to lift the dust, but also to remove stale make-up. Cleansing cream is essentially a lotion that is removed from the skin after application. Thus, this recipe can double as a facial lotion and cleanser depending on your needs. In order to make it, you will need vegetable oil, distilled water, and baking soda, all of which are available at the local grocery store. Cleanser should be applied with an upward movement and kept on the skin for about half a minute, so that it could dissolve the make-up. Then remove with a tissue or damp cotton wool. For those suffering from dry skin, a great alternative exists in the form of cleansing cream. If you would like to try it for yourself, you may enjoy making it at home with a few simple ingredients.

Glycerine gives cleansing cream extra moisturizing properties, while stearic acid is a thickening agent. Once you have assembled all the ingredients, you can prepare to make your cleansing cream. Use nondetergent, neutral-pH products to cleanse your skin. Avoid using any commercial soap. And always touch your face gently. Aspirin is made of acetylsalycilic acid, which in a slightly different form is commonly used in anti-aging, pore cleansing creams. This mask will leave your skin glowing and will purify your pores. Using it once a week, you may keep the blackheads under control. Double-cleanse with a cream, leaving a light, thin trace of it on the skin after the second cleansing. Moistening with water, then applying a thin film of air-excluding moisturizer restores the suppleness of the dry skin. Here are a few cleansing creams which are very easy and quick to make.

Almond cream for Dry skin:

Take few Almonds may be 4-5 almonds soak it well with 2 teaspoon of milk. Grind almonds with mixer. Mix 1 teaspoon of yogurt and mix it well. Apply it on the face and let it to dry wash it well with luke warm or cold water.

Fresh milk cream:

Collect fresh milk cream in an bowl add few drops of any oil like olive oil, castor oil, almond oil or even coconut oil can be used

Add half teaspoon of yogurt to this mixture. Apply it to the face and let it dry ans wash it with luke warm water.

Night cream for Dry skin:

Take few cubes of Cucumber. Smash it well and add few drops of almond oil to it and one egg white. Apply this mixture on nights or evening and wash it after some time with cold water.

Apricots face Cream:

Smash few Apricots and make paste out of it add few drops of castrol oil and olive vera gel. Apply it on the face and let it dry and wash it by cold water.
