Care & Exercises for the Eye

Vitamins A, B and C are very essential for the good care of the eyes. Milk, butter, cod liver oil, egg yolk, yellow and orange coloured vegetables such as pumpkin, carrot, tomato, mango, papaya, melon as well as green leafy vegetables such as celery, parsley, spinach etc contain a large amount of vitamin A. 8 to 10 hours of sleep is a must for bright eyes.

To avoid eye strain :

• Do not work in dim light

• Wear sunglasses whenever you step out in the sun

• Use face wash instead of soap because soap tends to darken the skin on the eyelids.

• Do not read continuously in moving vehicles.

• Do not stare too tong at anything without blinking the eyes. Blinking provides lubrication and relief from light.

• Do not rub the eyes too hard.

• To give momentary relief to the eyes, close the eyes with your palms so that no light can enter. Now open the eyes in the palm cup and stare into this darkness for a minute.

Exercises for eyes :

• Lift the eyes to the ceiling and then to the floor. Repeat it for 10 times. Rest the eyes either by blinking rapidly or rubbing your palms together and covering your eyes with them. Do not press the eyes. Palming reduces strain and gives relaxation to eyes.

• Look straight ahead at eye level, then slowly to left side at eye level and then to right side at eye level. Repeat it for 3 or 4 times.

• Make a circle, first clockwise and then anti-clockwise, with the eyes. Repeat for 5 times.

For eye care

Splash the eyes with cold water. Apply cotton wool pads, soaked in warm milk, witch hazel, weak tea solution or rose water on the eyes. Press gently and leave for 10 to 15 minutes.

Care for Eyebrows and Eyelashes :

• Eyebrows and Eyelashes should be brushed daily with a small brush.

• Rub eyebrows and eyelashes with olive oil or coconut oil or almond oil to encourage hair growth.

• For cleansing and nourishment of eyebrows, rub them with a little egg white and rinse it off after 10 minutes.

Wipro to make life beautiful for men

BANGALORE: Wipro Consumer Care and Lighting (WCCL) has lined up a slew of launches and brands for the second half of this fiscal to push its personal care portfolio. WCCL is set to enter the market for men’s personal care products, extend its Santoor soap brand to more products and launch the brands of Unza, a Singapore-based FMCG firm it bought in 2007, in about 10 more countries by the end of this fiscal.

“We are launching a new men’s personal care brand Romano from the Unza portfolio in India this month. This will be an end-to-end brand, including shaving products, perfumes, body-and-face washes and hair-care products. This will be a premium brand, targeted mostly at the young executive,” senior vice-president Anil Chugh said.

Earlier this year, WCCL launched the women’s personal care brand Enchanteur from Unza. Mr Chugh was of the view that Romano may not face much competition because of the fragmented nature of the market and the fact that no men’s brand is present across the personal care segment.

The men’s grooming market is pegged at around Rs 800 crore. The Wipro arm, which posted sales of Rs 1,520 crore in 2007-08, will also leverage Unza product formulations to grow the Santoor brand. “Santoor is already very strong brand in the country and we will be introducing new products for skin care—shower gels and head-and-toe lotions,” Mr Chugh said.

Explaining why Kate, 34, had topped the list, the survey said: "In the four films starring Kate, we are given dream sequences that invite us to imagine how we might fulfill her desires."

"The dreams are beautifully crafted fantasies, each with an eerie atmosphere that brings us into a serene la-la land where we feel free to imagine pleasing Kate."

Singer Kylie Minogue, 40, took second place in the poll, while burlesque dancer Dita von Teese, 35, bagged third spot.

Kylie was praised for a promotional piece she shot which sees her riding an electric horse.

The survey noted: "The camera closes in on her bulging behind as it rides up and down and shakes from side to side."

Dita won the third spot thanks to her ability to "tease out men's deepest fantasies through the power of suggestion".
