Pampers for the extra soft baby skin



Babies are sensitive to temperature change. If your baby's bundled up, it can become overheated. Itchy red bumps appear when tiny sweat glands get clogged. Dress your baby in breathable layers of clothes, and remove one if it's hot. Babies' lips are always wet thanks to drooling, lip-licking, and drippy noses, and that moisture can break down the protective top layer of skin.  Apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly or lip balm to create a barrier against the elements and to moisturize already-chapped lips. Dress your baby in mittens and a hat or hood, and don't stay out too long. Extend the cover on your stroller to block the wind. If your baby's skin looks red, give it a lukewarm bath. Using a thick moisturizer  or petroleum jelly on your baby's cheeks (or other problem areas) will add to the natural barrier and help treat any skin that's already chapped. Red, flaky skin can appear anywhere on your baby's body, especially on the face. It's particularly common during the winter because cold air doesn't carry as much moisture as warm air. Bathe your baby every day just don't use water that's too warm. Avoid soap or shampoo that contains fragrance or alcohol. Exposing your baby's skin to water twice a day will help keep it hydrated. When you bathe it, use a non soap cleanser only on the underarms, backside, groin, and feet, and use water to wash the rest of the body. Within two minutes of getting it out of the tub, spread on a moisturizing cream or an ointment like petroleum jelly to seal in the water. At another point during the day, use warm water from the sink to blot the skin, and then immediately apply moisturizer on the skin on the bottom which is vulnerable to moisture, heat, and irritants.

Baby's bottom may get red and tender for the first time when it begins solid food because the change in its stool can be irritating to the skin down there. Other possible causes: are wearing a wet or dirty diaper for too long, friction from tight-fitting diapers, and excessive heat and sweating. Change soiled diapers as soon as you can, and let your baby go naked once in a while so the skin gets some air. Make sure the diapers aren't too tight, and don't be afraid to go up a size. Use white diaper cream with zinc oxide or petroleum jelly to form a barrier that protects your baby's skin from friction and moisture. Our first and only choice is Pampers.“Pampers brings you the softest ever Pampers Premium Care Pants. Its cotton-like softness is
#SoftestForBabySkin  and allows it to breathe, thus keeping baby’s skin soft and healthy, and your baby happy. ”

MadeofGreat can be a person around you

I was very keen to become an engineer but the elders in my family were against my becoming an engineer, I being a girl. I was very disheartened by this turn of events. My next door neighbor asked me why I was looking so sad. So I told her about my wanting to become an engineer and how my family was against it. It was their belief that it was a girls role to learn about cooking and tending to the home. On hearing this my neighboring aunt told me her story how her father had inspired her to become an engineer. Hers was a family of engineers. However her father was a maths teacher. As she was good in physics and maths she always aspired of becoming an engineer. Her father supported her and did everything possible to help her succeed.Every time they use to take a train journey and pass the station of Roorkee the train would slow down and her father would point towards the station and say “This is Roorkee, the place where you have to come and study engineering when you grow up”

This action of her father used to inspire her a lot. By the she grew up to be of college going age there was mounting pressure on her father and family to marry her off. Despite all this pressure and opposition from the elders he stood like a rock of support for his daughter. She gave the entrance exam for getting admission to an engineering college but before the results could be out her father passed away. As luck would have it she  got admitted to the engineering college in Roorkee .She went ahead and fulfilled her dream of becoming an engineer and her fathers dream of her graduating from Roorkee. For her. her father was #madeofgreat who helped her dream and fulfill her aspirations and for me this neighboring lady has become a beacon of hope and source of inspiration who is truly #madeofgreat who despite having lost her father and the most important pillar of support of her life went ahead to fulfill her dream and that of her father.

Inspired by this lady I too am determined to fulfill my dreams of becoming an engineer.

Airtel 4G a good service from a Company with many Firsts

Airtel or Bharti Airtel ,the well known service provider from has introduced its 4G services in India. Looking at the prospects of a faster internet makes me wonder how the lives and the mobile surfing experience of millions of people who surf Internet is about to change.
For some faster mobile speeds give you a thrill but for others it is a necessity. India is a nation with a large population a large part of which is using the mobile internet. At present most of these users subscribe to 2G or 3G services. This interprets to long wait time in downloading files over the internet even watching videos over the internet which download bit by bit into the memory of our device and then play as one video take a very long time to get downloaded and played back resulting in jerky videos and long wait times to play even smaller size videos. With the Airtel introducing its 4G services all those woes about slow internet connection speeds ,broken, incomplete or slow downloads is likely to become a thing of the past. As most newer mobile phones are already 4G compliant all that one needs is a 4G Sim.Airtel which is currently offering its 4G services in 296 cities at the time of writing this post is going all out to make the lives of its 4G users easier so it is offering to give a FREE 4G SIM to anyone who wants to use its 4G services. Even the process of acquiring the new 4G SIM has been made very simple. A person can login to his his or her twitter account and send out a tweet #GetAirtel4G and Airtel would send the card to our desired address free of and cost and charges. Looking at the ease with with a person can get a 4G connection there is no reason why one should not make use of Airtel's fast speed 4G services. The next important question that arises is the cost of usage. Airtel users pay for 3G speed packages and in the same price get to use the 4G connection speeds. As a user of Airtel's services I experienced a better speed of surfing even on my older device which was not 4G compliant. When I applied for and got my new 4G SIM card I put it in a 4G compliant mobile phone and the experience of downloading from the internet was much faster. I could download an entire movie in a few minutes as compared to a few hours in 3G and days when I was on 2G data packs. I find that earlier the apps which require updating from time to time would take quite some time to complete these updates and now the updates get done in a jiffy. When I browse and open pages on the internet everything works so much faster that at times I forget that I am on the internet and it feels as though I am opening video files or games on my desktop such enhanced is my experience of using the Airtel's 4G connection. Airtel being the first provide to roll out its services is giving so many benefits that getting and making use of 4G services from Airtel becomes a very enticing offer.

Honey the best Health Option

Weighing the benefits of leading a healthy diet over a crash diet I must confess that I have reasons to believe that a healthy diet with a daily dosage of honey is the sweet and more effective way of remaining healthy and one should avoid as far as possible the agony and the suffering of a crash diet as it does more damage than good.
According to Ayurveda which happens to be the ancient science of India and a trusted ancient science of treatment of the human body and maintaining a healthy lifestyle Honey has found an important role in living a life that is truly healthy. Interestingly since time immemorial the Indian system of medicine too has recognized the good health benefits of honey . For example there are ancient documents in Sanskrit that throw light on managing good heath and weight with daily and regular consumption of honey. Taking a note from the site Honey Diet it lists some very important uses of honey such as taking one spoon full of honey with warm water in the morning can help us manage our weight.
Honey also helps in improving our digestion and helps us achieve smooth bowel movement.
Honey is known to make our immune system stronger. It is a rich source of minerals, vitamins and antioxidants.
Eating honey also helps us ward off cough, cold and a bad throat.
Most diet plans ask you to cut on sugar but if we follow a healthy lifestyle we can replace the sugar with natural honey like Dabur honey this ensures that we consume less calories. An important fact is that honey has natural sugars and carbohydrates that are absorbed better by the human body. http://www.daburhoney.com/benefits-of-honey.aspx
Looking at the number of healthier honey based recipes from snacks, milk shakes and dessert treats the uses of honey to make our diet more healthy and nutritious are endless.
So if one has the option of eating healthy,eat and drink delicious honey based food and drinks then what is the need to harm our bodies with crash diets. As crash diets are always asking us to keep away from food . They ask us to either cut on the intake of sugar or give it up completely. I have even come across people on crash diets who eat nothing but  cucumber. Where as I eat healthy and eat everything. The other harm of a crash diet is that we are putting out bodies to stress and strain by not feeding it enough.
Take for instance a routine which starts with a spoon of honey with warm water to help us cleanse our system from inside and also manage our weight and at the same time get some enengy.
Then have a milk shake in the breakfast with honey as a sweetener.  This is a great way to give ourselves the morning energy to our bodies that would last us many hours and help us stop the craving for food.
For me the benefits of a healthy diet specially a diet packed with the goodness of honey fat outweighs the benefits of a crash diet.
Information about honey diet is available here Honey Diet.

When it comes to buying some honey I use a trusted brand like Dabur as it ensures a good quality and hygienically packed product. http://www.daburhoney.com/

UC Browser for a faster smoother cricket update

I am a girl in love with the game of cricket I just love Yuvraj Singh for his powerful hitting and the ability to hit six sixes on six consecutive balls . I love Virat Kohli for his match winning determination and Shikhar Dhawan for his stroke play and clean hitting. Actually I love each and every player who plays cricket and serves the nation in this manner. So crazy has been my passions for the sport and being up close and personal with the game of cricket and the cricketers that I seriously contemplated being a cheer girl so that I could always observe the game from close quarters.
The next best thing is watching the match on TV and the mobile phone like the boys in my class. However it’s not always possible to be in front of the TV and there are assignments to be completed and all the boys of my class complain that watching  matches on the mobile is slow and painful because the videos take a very long time to open.
However my passion for the game of cricket has helped me find a solution for this problem as well. I have found that by installing the UC Browser on my mobile phone the live cricket streaming as well as watching the recordings of the game is much faster. This way I am able to experience the cricket matches where ever I am without any interruptions. Another wonderful feature of the UC Browser is UCCricket  It is found as a blue icon on the UC Browser home screen and makes available all the match details and updates at one place. When my classmates are frantically refreshing the page or searching the web pages for score I am sitting pretty and enjoying a ball by ball account of the game thanks to the UC Browser and UC Cricket . The results seem almost prophetic when I can announce the scores while my friends are  waiting for the information to load on their slow mobile browsers.
The UC Browser is a very simple to use browser with an intuitive interface and it makes the mobile browsing experience more rewarding.
Firstly the browsing is quicker so one gets the information quicker and this applies to not just cricket but any other search or browsing as well.
Secondly as compared to other browsers it consumes lesser amount of mega bites of data. Lower data usage reduces the over all data usage and reduces the internet surfing bill for me.
The biggest advantage I have felt is that my dis tractors who earlier kept saying that I like the game of cricket for the good looking players have had to eat a humble pie as they themselves come and ask me for the cricket score and match statistics as my phone due to the UC Browser and the UC Cricket feature gives me the fastest score updates in the entire class .

Long live UC Browser and UC Cricket Long live Cricket.

My Dream home is ready



Our wardrobe changes with every change of the weather. Similarly our home also needs a constant make over with the change in the seasons. Just as we feel fresh and enervated with a change in our dresses, shoes and bags so does our home. With the onset of the summer season you switch to clothes that are light and airy. Our home also needs to look lighter and brighter. With the intent of giving a transformation to my home I searched for tips on how to make my home look happy and bright.
I happened to visit the Rewards me website. https://www.rewardme.in/home/home-decor/
 I found it to be a treasure trove of ideas and options. Here I came to know that I need not spend a fortune to give that airy desired look to my home. I found the article A Summery Curtain Call to be very useful
https://www.rewardme.in/home/home-decor/article/a-summery-curtain-call
Without spending a fortune now I could transform my home into an airy summer palace.
I came to know that curtains with light-weight and breezy will breathe new life into my home décor. Window curtains are one of the easiest ways to give a room a face-lift. They have the power to instantly brighten or soften a room and with a little innovation, you can inject design and drama into any space. If I would like to control the light and temperature in the room, I should go for block-out curtains. And if you want to bask in the sunlight, then sheer curtains are the answer. Cool shades like blue and green are advised to keep the heat at bay. Sky blue brings serenity to a space and is great for a room where you want to relax and unwind. For a rich, elegant feel that shines in the sunlight, pick darker shades. Light, pastel shades are the favorites for the summer season. For a feminine touch go for a blushing hue of pink and if you like to experiment go for pop colors and pair yellows, fuchsias and oranges with neutral colors like grey or white.
I have learnt how to choose the right fabric. Linen and cotton are fantastic light-weight fabrics made for the warmer months. Transparent voile also is a great way to let the sunshine in. Velvet is a good option due to its density with silk as an excellent alternative. The article advises the use of soft, modern prints inspired by nature for a gorgeous look while retro and geometric patterns intensify the playful spirit of summer. Nautical patterns spell sophistication and floral designs are a great way to bring summer blossoms into the home. Metallic gradients, ornate designs and crystal embellishments lend a luxurious, regal appeal. I too can be a trendsetter by mixing up fabrics and colors to customize the curtains. I find the result to be spectacular. I need not spend on designer curtains now. I can make my own curtains I have used lace to spruce up the hemlines to create a striped illusion. My dream home is ready.

My home beautiful



I have always aspired to make my home a place to feel happy and inspired. A home in fact takes the centre stage in the lives of many of us, a focal point and a point of attraction. It is a place where we not only relax and unwind but also entertain. After a period of time the home though clean tends to lose its shine. The answer is to give it a make over.
The make over should be such that it is quick, easy to do and to top it all affordable. A make over that does not cause a dent in your pocket and with excellent results. My friends always speak highly of the Reward me site. I followed them and decided to visit the website for tips on how to give my home a quick, easy and affordable makeover. I went to the home section and under the topic home décor https://www.rewardme.in/home/home-decor I found what I needed. There were many articles but the one that caught my attention was titled Quick, Easy and Affordable Makeovers for the Home.
It is easy enough to update the wardrobes but it can be daunting when it comes to re-decorating your home. Buying of new furniture and renovations are expensive and time-consuming features but there are ways to give your home a quick, easy and most of all, affordable refresh which I came to know from the following article.  https://www.rewardme.in/home/home-decor/article/quick-easy-and-affordable-makeovers-for-the-home.
After reading the article I moved the chairs and the sofas in the living room and my room started to look different. I switched certain pieces in between rooms and rearranged my art and pictures. It surely gave a brand new look to my home.
All this only required a little juxtaposition and no money was spent. I then looked around and changed the cushion covers to complete the new look of my living room. This done I moved to the dining area and placed a set of new table mats as well as a bunch of flowers on the table to give this area a feel of freshness.
Next I used my net saris as curtains to complete the dream effect I also placed some decorative mats on the sofa arms.
My bedroom also got new net curtains as well as tucked in sheets for a streamlined effect.
I re arranged the crockery in the kitchen and settled back to enjoy a cup of tea and at the same time enjoying the change in my home. This was possible all because of the article in the Reward me website and I really felt rewarded by the new look of my home.
