This party season, steal the limelight with right hair and make up. Sabhya Dutta- Director at Looks Salon lists down some inputs to get the right one. * Subtle blush is a year-round must, but this season's trendy rouge is inspired by the rosy glow you get when there's a nip in the air. * Get bolder, more defined brows without a product-y look. Inspired by professional brow tinting, these temporary tints deepen the colour of your arches to enhance their shape, with the effects lasting up to a few days. * Full, false lashes on your top lash line invariably make your eyes looks larger and more awake. Keep the rest of your make-up palette neutral for a look that's modern, rather than overdone. * A red lip as the centre-piece of a polished makeup look is classic, but it can also awaken otherwise low-key makeup, like a little smudgy eyeliner. * Smoky eyes are always a favourite, but applying jewel tones like blue, emerald, and indigo bring out your e

Yo-yo dieting , or weight cycling, or the cyclical loss and gain of weight is associated with a higher death risk, researchers have warned. A study found that this form of dieting leads to adverse health outcomes and 80 per cent of people who lose weight gradually regain either the same weight or even more than they had before going on a diet. The Endocrine Society's Scientific statement on the causes of obesity found that this was because once an individual loses weight, the body typically reduces the amount of energy expended at rest, during exercises and daily activities.

After two days of immaculate sunshine, the usual November weather of mist and cold finally descended on Lake Como in far northern Italy as the high-octane wedding celebrations of Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh came to a suitably chaotic end.
