how to get more natural eyelashes?

Asked by HR 34rte in Beauty & Fashion at 9:12 PM on November 04, 2008

Seema's Answer

Long and thick eyelashes complete the perfect eye makeup. Some people are blessed with perfect long, curled lashes. But others who are not blessed with such features need not be disappointed. There are many ways to give that beautiful look to your eyelashes.

Eyelashes are not just for beautifying the eye area. These are important eye organ, which protect the eye from getting dirt or any unwanted debris. These are sensitive to touch, which signal eyes that there is an unwanted matter near eyes. Eyelashes tend to grow back in case of hair fall from lash. Color of eyelash may differ from your hair color. Long and curly eyelashes are associated with femininity.

You can follow these tips --

1-Remove eye makeup before going to bed.
2- Apply castor oil to lashes every night before going to the bed.
3- Remove it in the morning with the help of non-oily eye makeup remover.
4- You can also apply, a mix of glycerin and castor oil daily at night for thickening of eyelashes.
5- If you have dandruff, control it as it falls on eyelashes.
6- People wearing eye lenses, should apply mascara with care.

Problems of eyelashes

Eyelashes fall in the normal course but they grow out from the follicle and replace the old one. With growing age, eyelashes too become thin. Another reason of loosing eyelashes is due to galumph and hair is lost permanently in this condition.

tell about Credit Card Interest?

Asked by shyam singh in Personal Finance & Tax at 10:31 PM on October 01, 2008

Seema's Answer

Most of us are familiar with credit cards. As mentioned earlier, U.S. statistics show the average family has long-term credit card debt in excess of $5,000. In fact, credit card debt accounts for a very sizeable chunk of total consumer debt, which hit $2.5 trillion in 2008. Clearly credit cards are an important part of our day-to-day lives, which is why it's important for consumers to understand the effect of that interest on them.

An Example: Discovering the Benefit of Increasing Your Payments
Let's say John and Jane both have $2,000 debt on their credit cards, which require a minimum payment of 3%, or $10, whichever is higher. Both are strapped for cash, but Jane manages to pay an extra $10 on top of her minimum monthly payments. John pays only the minimum.

Each month John and Jane are charged a 20% annual interest on their cards' outstanding balances. So, when John and Jane make payments, part of those payments go to paying interest and part go to the principal.

wat is IFS code in upload id proof. Wer is it located in pass book. I hav an a/c in andhra bank. What will be its ifs code

Asked by Sivaram in Personal Finance & Tax at 1:28 PM on July 19, 2008

Seema's Answer

Indian Financial System Code (IFSC) is an alpha numeric code designed to uniquely identify the bank-branches in India. This is 11 digit code with first 4 characters representing the banks code, the next character reserved as control character (Presently 0 appears in the fifth position) and remaining 6 characters to identify the branch. The MICR code has 9 digits to identify the bank-branch.

RBI had since advised all the banks to print IFSC on cheques leaves issued to their customers. You may also contact your bank-branch and get the IFS Code of that branch.

You go to bank and ask the bank Branch manager. Branch manager will provide you code.

wht is mutual fund, derivative, banking reconcilation and basic accounting ? i faced in interview.

Asked by santoo goud in Personal Finance & Tax at 12:27 PM on July 12, 2008

Seema's Answer

A Mutual Fund is a trust that pools the savings of a number of investors who share a common financial goal. The money thus collected is then invested in capital market instruments such as shares, debentures and other securities. The income earned through these investments and the capital appreciation realized are shared by its unit holders in proportion to the number of units owned by them. Thus a Mutual Fund is the most suitable investment for the common man as it offers an opportunity to invest in a diversified, professionally managed basket of securities at a relatively low cost.

Derivative products have been around for a long, long time. In fact, as early as the 1650s, dealings resembling present day derivative market transactions were seen in rice markets in Osaka, Japan.
The first leap towards an organized derivatives market came in 1848, when the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT), the largest derivative exchange in the world, was established.

Today, equity and commodity derivative markets are rapidly gaining in size in India. In terms of popularity too, these markets are catching on like a forest fire. So, what are these markets all about? What are the products that they trade in? Why do people feel the need to trade in such products and what sort of traders benefit from such trades? Do these markets hold scope for retail investors too? And if so, how exactly can you go about trading in them?
