Black trousers and a jacket of strict breed should always be at the of miniature women.
You should prefer one-color subjects of a wardrobe as then your figure will be visually extended will. The clothes of dark brown and shades caramel will visually extend a figure and to make it more harmonious. Contrast colors as though segment your figure, that, emphasizing your low growth.
Good choice:
Long trousers and high heel footwear In your wardrobe there should be, at least, one pair of perfectly sitting trousers which edge practically gets up to a floor when you are wearing high heel shoes or boots. In this case nobody can tell, of what length your legs are, the illusion is created so, that you look higher than you are.
Long skirt and high boots Long skirts work by the same principle, as long trousers do. It is even better if the skirt and boots coincide on color; it even more visually extends the bottom part of a trunk.
Vertical lines assume, that the person looking at you will necessarily move in a direction from below upwards or from top to down, instead of from right to left. Strips, lightnings on jackets or jackets, a long silk scarf, embroidery located horizontally belong to vertical lines.
Truncated coat If you wear a long coat you will look absolutely disproportionate. A coat of length hardly below a hip is highly recommended to small woman. Thus, legs will be opened, and the figure will look balanced.
Undesirable:
Greater figures The more figure on a fabric is, the less you will look. Adhere to small figures on vests, tops, etc., as all this will draw a sight to the top half of trunk.
Horizontal details make you look smaller and fatter. We also recommend you to avoid the details, drawing attention to edge clothes, any possible ruches, etc.
Too high heels The heel of more than 7, 5 centimeters will look disproportionate on the small leg, therefore choose footwear in view of height of a heel.
Large sweaters A free sweater of large viscous simply “will swallow” you. Select fitting sweaters of the small sizes.
Skirts up to the ground It is better to avoid or to put on such skirts with a high heel boots in the same color to a skirt.
Double-breasted jackets and coat visually make the top part of the body heavier and “square”.

Here is good news for the “chocolate eaters” and those, who are fed up with diets! Now you can cite scientific data in the confirmation of positive influence of chocolate on brain activity.
Consumption of chocolate strengthens brain activity and gives short-term splash of cognitive skills. Such conclusion has been made by the group of the British scientists under direction of Professor Ian Macdonald from the Nottingham University.
The scientists have investigated a hot chocolate drink in which a plenty of flavanols - the basic component of dark chocolate- contained. It was found out, that flavanols cause inflow of blood to key zones of a brain. This effect lasts for 2-3 hours that is enough for activation of the general brain activity and for the improvement of ability to cope with specific tasks.
The work of the British scientists, being represented at one of the largest scientific conferences in the USA, has caused the big interest. Prospects of chocolate application for treatment of vascular infringements, senile dementia and an insult were widely discussed. In chocolate the flavanols can be useful to struggle against chronic weariness, infringements of a dream and even for delay of ageing processes.
In his report Ian MacDonald has represented the results of the nuclear-magnetic brain tomography. The attributes of strengthening of activity of a brain after the drunken cup of hot chocolate are obviously visible at these tomograms. An explanation of this effect is quite easy - the flavanols cause the expansion of blood vessels in brain, and the increase in the maintenance of oxygen in brain cells.
Unfortunately, nothing was told about the flavanoids. Ian McDonald has only informed, that the chocolate drink has been prepared in a special way, and flavanoids have other concentration in usual drinks.
Besides chocolate, flavanoids can also be found in the red wine, green tea, and bilberry.

There are two reasons stale breath: bad observance of oral cavity hygiene and infringement of work of a gastroenteric path.
In both cases bacteria are the originators of a unpleasant smell. If you address to the dentist he will for certain advise you two things. Firstly, he would advice you to be convinced that you eat well and that you follow the balanced diet, including necessary quantity of fibers and carbohydrates, and also various acids and the vitamins containing in vegetables and fruits. Secondly, after each reception of food it is desirable to use a tooth-brush and a string.
However there is also one more way to breathe make your breath fresh. Some kinds of food are able to relieve of a unpleasant smell from a mouth and to prevent its further occurrence.
1. Parsley
This grassy plant is better than others neutralizes the unpleasant smell from a mouth, including a smell of a tobacco smoke. But if you did not manage to find parsley you may use coriander, mint, a wormwood, rosemary or cardamom instead of it. To achieve the best effect, it is necessary as to chew or to prepare these grasses as tea. The listed grasses have a double advantage - they not only eliminate a unpleasant smell from a mouth, but they also solitarily affect digestion.
2. Yoghurt
Last researches have shown that the use yoghurt in food reduces a level of sulfide of hydrogen in a mouth. This substance is a principal cause of occurrence of a unpleasant smell in a mouth. The regular use of yoghurt interferes with formation of harmful bacteria which can cause diseases of gums and occurrences of spots on dental enamel. However, when you are choosing yoghurt, you should convince that it contains only natural components, active yogurt cultures and has no sugar.
3. Vegetables and fruits
Apples, carrots and celery promote plentiful saliva allocation, which moistens a mouth, deleting that the smallest slices of the food which remained on teeth or have got stuck between them. Very often these slices are also the reason of formation of an unpleasant smell in a mouth.
4. Chewing gum
The chewing gum cannot relieve you of a bad smell from a mouth, but it can disguise it. One more plus of the chewing gum is that it promotes plentiful allocation of the saliva clearing an oral cavity. But you should also remember that the chewing gum should not replace tooth-brush.
5. Food with the high vitamin C maintenance
Berries, citruses, water-melons and other food containing vitamin C in lots, form in a mouth the environment, adverse for growth of bacteria. The regular use of vitamin C is also important for gums health. However you should pay attention that vitamin C should come in an organism from natural products, instead of from food additives as additives can cause frustration of digestive system.

Experts have analyzed private affairs of graduates of law faculties, and have also estimated their appearance on a five-point scale
The people watching their appearance and making various cosmetic procedures on a regular basis have a good health and live even longer from those who do not pay any attention to the appearance. In scientists’ opinion, this phenomenon is quite explainable, and both from the physiology and psychology points of view. Earlier the scientists have also declared that beautiful people also earn more money, than their “average-looking” colleagues do.
People, who carefully look after their skin by means of various cosmetic creams and masks, are healthier than those who do not pay attention to their image. The researchers approve that, owing to this, life expectancy of people, taking care of their health and appearance increases.
Such results are connected with a number of different reasons. For example, the constant and competent skin care allows improving the activity of nervous system and a gastro enteric path, and any failures in the functioning of these organs affect an integument condition.
The other reason is explained by the fact that various cosmetic procedures help to improve appearance - and comprehension of the appeal, in turn, rises to the mood, that positively affects our health.
Besides it is natural, that the activity of our organism is anyhow shown on us in literal sense. The person watching over the health carries out preventive maintenance or solves arising problems in time without waiting when they will prove in the form of cosmetic lacks.
Thus, “beauty” and “health” are indissolubly connected. And the habit to care of skin and body means simultaneous and constant preventive maintenance of many diseases.
Besides it is not necessary to forget that the discontent with own appearance can lead to occurrence of diseases: the most part of illnesses is caused by the emotional reasons. Therefore, besides carrying out of procedures on physical improvement of the appearance, it is necessary to think about the emotional plan.
The confident in their appearance people feel comfortable and stronger. Such people become more successful. So, the experts from Texas and Michigan universities have analyzed private affairs of graduates of law faculties, and have estimated their appearance on a five-point scale (1 - least, and 5 - the most attractive). Then they have contacted graduates and have taken an interest in their present incomes.
The result showed that in five years after reception of the diploma beautiful people earned on 10 % more, than the owners of usual appearance, and in 15 years, the incomes of attractive people have grown on 12 %.

Myth №1 The final figure, being given to you after the end of the IQ test, is a parameter of your mind and abilities.
Actually The test contains some sections (so-called subtests) - on abstract, verbal, figurative thinking, etc. Results of subtests are summarized, and the average value as a result is being stood out. Hence, a person, having an outstanding figurative thinking and very poor logic, will get an average final result.
Myth №2 The higher IQ is, the clever its owner will be.
Actually There is a joke that high parameters of the test show not the intelligence of the person, but the ability to pass tests for factor of intelligence. In fact IQ points are a parameter of ability of the person to learn something new. It is a degree to which the person can observe and understand an event. But neither to practical mind, nor to creative abilities is related.
Myth №3 The person with high IQ has more chances, than others, to succeed in business.
Actually For achievement of vital success persistence and high motivation without fail should be applied on high parameters of intelligence. The person possessing high intelligence, but deprived persistence, can waste all life pending “the high time”. The person, persevered in knowledge but unmotivated by any purposes, risks to waste all possible opportunities. The combination has persistence plus of motivation, let even at absence of strongly pronounced intelligence has the greatest chances for success.

Physiological changes at women during and after pregnancy
1st trimester
Practically from the moment of conception the female organism starts to prepare for a birth and feeding by a breast. Many women notice the changes occurring to mammary glands even before to the first delay of menses. Thus, swelling of mammary glands can serve as the first signal, that you are pregnant.
Soon, the quantity of a fatty fabric in mammary glands and quantity of circulated blood, that promotes growth of dairy channels, increases. Many women feel some weight in the field of a thorax as the breast becomes harder. Veins on a breast can become more appreciable, dummies to increase, the prepapillary circle becomes darker.
How to facilitate the state at this stage:
Buy new bra.
Limit the use salt, as it keeps moisture and leads to puffiness.
2nd trimester
Approximately after achievement of the middle of term mammary glands get the necessary volume for manufacture of milk. Because of increase in volume there can be extensions or an itch.
Breast after a birth
Right after branches of a placenta the prolactin hormone, signaling mammary gland that is time to make milk, starts to be developed. Formation of milk is stimulated with the further sucking movements of the baby, therefore if you plan to nurse, start to it do as soon as possible.
With the advent of the milk the breast swells considerably, becoming heavy and may be covered with pimples and it can itch.
To facilitate unpleasant sensations, it is possible to do the following actions:
If you plan to continue to nurse, in the first some days reduce stagnation of milk to a minimum as it will provide good formation of new milk.
If you do not plan to nurse, it is recommended one day prior to a birth of the child and all next week to carry a rigid sports bra.
Whether the breast will return to its antenatal condition?
After you have taken away the child from a breast, the rests of milk will be absorbed by your organism. Dummies will come back to the former size. The breast also will come back to antenatal volume if you come back to antenatal weight. There is one “but”: the breast will not look so elastic as up to sorts, and nothing can be done here.

Photoepilation
Photoepilation foresees the influence of short flashes of light hair bulbs. The principle of elimination of a follicle is the same, as at laser epilation, the only difference is that the influence is excreted on the greater area by the light ray with other physical features. Laser epilation is quite often carried to one of epilation kinds. The advantages of this method are: painlessness, an opportunity of carrying out of procedure in “bikini zones” and on the face.
Thermolysis
Thermolysis provides hair removal of due to a variable electric current. Passing through a hair follicle, the current causes fluctuations of molecules and leads to local allocation of heat and destruction of the cells, being a source of growth of hair. The Flash-method means the use of an alternating current of high frequency that allows making procedure of less painful at the same effect. The Blend-method combines thermolysis and electrolysis, that makes the procedure less painful, but more long. The advantages are the rapidity, proof effect; the only problem is that the procedure is quite painful and can’t be used for the “bikini zone” and the face.
Electrolysis
At electrolysis procedure a hair follicle is influence by constant electric current. The electrochemical reaction occurs in the end of a needle which, is brought to hair. The newly formed alkali and acid destroy the cells, responsible for the growth of hair. The main advantage of this method consists in smaller morbidity comparing to thermolysis that in turn, defines an opportunity of carrying out of procedure in sensitive zones. Unfortunately, such procedure requires a lot of time and a dose of patience.
Wax epilation (waxing)
Wax epilation includes hair plucking by means of wax that can be accompanied by removal of a hair follicle. The special structure, containing adhesive substances, is put on the skin (wax, honey, biologically active substances, sedatives, etc.). So, the removal of hair occurs together with removal of wax. Low price is the only advantage of a method. The insignificant decrease in growth of hair will be marked through some procedures.
Chemical depilation
The principle of chemical depilation consists in influence on hair of the chemical substances containing in a depilating cream. After destruction of albuminous layers of an external part of hair it easily gives in to painless removal. The obvious advantage of this procedure is in its painlessness, an opportunity of application on the face and in “bikini zones”. But it is necessary to remember about the allergic reactions and irritations of the skin, and also weak influence of a cream on rigid, dark hair.

Today there are about ten methods of undesirable hair elimination: from become in short terms super known laser epilation up to unfamiliar to the sugaring. The aim of our article is to represent data on depilation and epilation in order to give the full information and allow you to choose the suitable method. The term epilation assumes influence on reproductive system of hair - a hair bulb, or a hair follicle. It means, that epilation foresees not only the removal of hair, but also the elimination of their superfluous growth. Through one or more often some procedures the quantity of hair bulbs decreases, due to what the constant effect is reached.
Depilation assumes the removal of hair without the influence on a hair follicle, though some influence on reproductive system of hair nevertheless is present. The difference is only that at wax depilation and other methods of hair plucking, the effect arises only some months later.
Laser epilation
Its principle consists in destroying influence of a laser beam on a hair follicle. It is known, that a pigment in a bulb cells absorbs light contain and collapses. Laser epilation is painless, owing to local, short in time (millisecond) influence and fast cooling. So, the basic advantage of this kind of epilation is an opportunity of carrying out of procedure in “zones of bikini”, auxiliary areas, on the face. The other doubtless advantage of laser epilation is the high factor of removal of hair (kill ratio) - the percent of hair the removed for ever for one procedure. The disadvantages of laser epilation are the existing restrictions at a light skin and light hair, and also its high cost in comparison with other methods. It depends on quantity of impulses of a laser beam that is in turn defined by the area of epilation, quantity of hair and their structure (at rigid, dark hair - is more expensive, at soft - is cheaper).
