Maybe you have noticed that in we are obsessed with air freshener in our daily life. Trigger-happy women routinely rush around the house armed with cans of the stuff, gleefully spraying running shoes, embarrassed dogs and cigar-smoke-laden furniture; whole families, it seems, are intoxicated by the fresh scent of Summer Breeze or Berry Burst.
As we are all known that air fresheners are a kind of consumer products that mitigate unpleasant odors in indoor spaces. They can be in the form of candles, aerosol sprays, potpourri, gels and mechanical or heat release products.
But just how “fresh” is air freshener? A study released last week by the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) evaluated 14 air fresheners off the shelf of a local Walgreens and found that 12 contained variable amounts of substances called phthalates (pronounced THAL-ates), a group of chemicals that are used to dissolve and carry fragrances, soften plastics and also as sealants and adhesives. Phthalates are commonly found in a variety of products, including cosmetics, paints, nail polish and children’s toys – and have long been at the center of a larger international controversy over their health effects.
Of course, there are many dozens more air fresheners on the market that haven’t been vetted for phthalates. What to do? So, when you decide to choose an air freshener as a gift to give out, here are some useful suggestions for you to consider:
1. Look Before You Spray.
Read labels. If you see the word “Fragrance,” it’s likely that the manufacturer is taking an advantage of an FDA labeling loophole that allows users of synthetic fragrance to avoid mentioning specific ingredients—including phthalates, used to disperse synthetic scents.
Look instead for specific essential plant oils, preferably organic.
2. Do a Sniff Test. Before buying any fragranced product, natural or not, spray some from a tester to see whether it produces sneezes or itchy eyes. Strong fragrances, particularly citrus or pine, can provoke irritation and allergic/asthmatic reactions. And remember, when it comes to any perfume, a little goes a long way, so you needn’t overdo it.
3. For greener air freshener tips, pls see: http://www.greenlivingtips.com/articles/99/1/Green-air-fresheners.html
Actually, the majority of air fresheners you buy in the supermarket do not destroy odors, but simply mask them. They create a coating on your nasal membranes that fool your brain into thinking that the smell has gone. As for those air fresheners that claim to kill bacteria, our bacteria paranoia is leading us to kill good bacteria while creating strains of drug resistant bad bacteria.
Pass this info on to your odor-phobic college student, teen or preteen. Advertising heavily aimed at their demographic urges them to spritz and spray rather than open windows, do laundry and wash with plain soap and water.

Nail art has gone way ahead beyond the conventional method of only applying nail paint. Now, you literally don’t need to possess a good set of nails to beautify them because now there’s the option of gel nails and acrylic nails. Both look so beautiful and so real that most would not even be able to make out the difference. Artificial nails are found in abundance, are not that expensive and can be easily applied onto your nails. Most professional nail salons are apt at creating beautiful nails by using the artificial ones especially on special occasions, festivals or even on weddings, where the demand for these artificially enhanced nails can be easily gauged.
Though most nail salons give you the option to choose between acrylic or gel nails, however, it is always useful to know which may suit your nails more and will work for a longer period of time.
Both gel and acrylic nails are equally popular, though acrylic nails are being used for a much longer period than gel nails. The basic difference in both is their forms. Gel nails are obviously in gel form and are made from a pre-mixed polymer and monomer gel, which is applied to the nails and then cured either under UV lights or with a special gel activator in case of non-UV cured gel nails.
Where acrylic nails are concerned, they are basically made from a mixture of liquid acrylic and polymer and once the mixture is applied it usually gets set within minutes. Both the gel and acrylic nails help in lengthening your short nails, making them stronger and obviously adding sheen to your nails.
Though both make your nails look glorious and stunning, there are quite a few basic differences in both of them and it can get difficult to pin point which one is better, because both have their pros as well as cons. Gel nails are usually considered to look more natural over acrylic and they even involve less damage to the natural nails. Also, one cannot ignore the fact that gel nails do not emit fumes or odors as acrylics do and gels naturally have a more clear, shiny and non-yellowish finish. But the clean and shiny appearance doesn’t come cheap and it is any day more expensive than acrylics. Since gel nails need to be usually cured under UV light, they require more maintenance as well. When you want to remove them, the best way is to visit a nail salon and let a technician do the job. They exactly know how to get it removed without damaging the cuticle or the natural nail.
Acrylic on the other hand is more affordable and is widely available too. A lot of nail salons also use acrylic nails since the nails need to be roughened a bit followed by the coating of the chemicals onto the nails. With acrylic you can choose from a variety of designs such as white tips, French tips and even nail repairs. Acrylic nails are also long lasting and durable as is the case with gel nails. A great polish can further accentuate the look of your acrylic nail. However, when using acrylic nails, you need to be careful of getting them removed from a technician since improper removal can result in damaging your real nails. Also, in comparison to gel nails, acrylic nails do not look as real or shining and if not done properly they can also look quite fake at times. But irrespective of whether you choose gel or acrylic, you are guaranteed to come out of the nail salon with a set of beautiful and stunning nails.

These days, due to increase in standard of comfort, Pedicures and Manicures, have been rated as vitals in many neighborhoods. And it is not for ladies but you can see it as a regular practice for many boys also! And taking off to a neighboring salon is the obvious way to do it.
Though the way and the usefulness of salons can vary according to the individual finances, but the idea of pleasure manicure is stiffly settled in the heads of heaps of people from developing nations. Despite, you ought to think through a few things, before you decide on a particular salon for your customary manicure.
Fundamentally, its better to remember that each salon (or spa) is not of the similar type, though they may look ditto with modish looking assistants and they are furnishing a menu or price list, which is also ditto. There will be bigger variations there.
Now to analyze more accurately, lets take an example of a restaurant. There can be tons displaying uniform menus and making attractive ads around, but many may be deficient in health and cleanliness requirements and the worst thing is you cannot be informed of that, while you are enjoying cuisine sitting there. You might have enjoyed that many times, but it’s a human tendency not to verify for these requirements.
Well, similar is possible of salons and spas. You may not be very eager in gazing at the inspection certificate when you are coming in but all of them are obligated to provide a minimum grade of cleanliness standards for the safety of their clients.
Its vital to be aware of the staff condition as well as the ambience of the salon and the devices which they are working with. You must ensure that the foot bath is of a better standard. For example, the salon assistants must wipe inside out and drain the bath working with an anti-bacterial liquid after completing the pedicure of one customer, in order to be prepared to accept another.
In particular the assistants must verify that bath is not gingerly cleaned, but is neaten ardently by working with proper devices and liquids. If this is not done, these fancy looking baths can be the habitat for many types of bacteria. Also they can be containing flakes of skin (as well as hair!) from previous clients.
It’s not a news of long ago, but a big name salon was obligated to shutter in California in that a girl saw big boils and sufferings on feet after concluding the pedicure. Inquiries confirmed that this was as a result of yucky conditions prevalent at the footbaths.
There has to be a method of hygiene of manicure devices matching to a hospital. If by chance any customer is scratched while doing a manicure, then there is a extremely huge chance of getting an access to injurious bacteria in his/her body that can be crucial.
It is also vital to maintain the workstations very hygienic in between clients. Actually a powerful anti-bacterial liquid should be used to clean the entire workstation area in order to forbid breaking of germs and bacteria.
There are some vital aspects to remember, before you make your next appointment with a manicure/pedicure salon. This is for your own safety and protection. Just make an inquiry whether the salon you are going is having any service or security issues. Remember to have a look at the manicurist’s license and also check for disinfectant containers. And the liquid must be fresh. It’s a good practice to carry your own manicure set, in order to be safe and get a peace of mind!
