Monsoon and you

Monsoon is most romantic and awaited season since long whereas it goes with lots and lots skin and hair problems. Parlours are a big hole to pocket this time as many college had started and few are about to start so first preference is shopping.But now enjoy this monsoon without worrying about your skin with few changes in routine.


For Hairs
  1. Wash hairs more often during the monsoons as humidity causes lot damage. 
  2. Henna is also a good conditioner and is actually very cooling. Add tea water to mix the henna, along with lemon juice, coffee and two raw eggs.
  3. The juice of a lemon and half a cup of rose water can also be added to a mug of water to make a fragrant last rinse. 
  4. Tea and lemon juice also make a wonderful hair rinse. Just boil used tea leaves again, in enough water. Cool, strain, add the juice of a lemon. Use it as a last rinse after shampoo. 

For Skin

The skin care should be followed in steps.We all gets constant exposure to the day to day pollution. So the very first step to skin care in monsoon comprises of skin cleaning.

First of all, know your skin type and according to that use the steps:

Cleansing
  • For Oily skin any good cleanser or face wash will do wonders.
  • For Dry skin, try and avoid any face wash that has deo in it. The smelling agents will further dry your skin.
After cleansing we need to remove dead cells which can be done by scrubbing so next step is Scrubbing.
  • For the oily skin
  1.  Ripe papaya pulp will do wonders.
  2.  You may also use rice flour paste in rose water as the home made exfoliating agent.  
  3. Channa powder or besan mixed with milk or rose water also makes an excellent scrubbing agent.

  •  For dry skins
  1.  you should make a paste of 10 almonds crushed together in one or two teaspoon honey and massage your face with it for      around 5-10 minutes and then wash and pat dry.
  2.  A mixture of rosewater and  glycerin can also be used for dry skin.


 Toning

  •    For dry skin 
  1. mix one teaspoon of milk with around 5 drops of chamomile oil and use it as toner.


  •    oily skin 
  1. use a mixture of 10 drops of lavender oil with one teaspoon of water, as homemade toner. 


Moisturizing

For the dry skin the monsoon weather strips off the skin of its moisture content. And for the oily skin the monsoon adds up the moisture content. Yet moisturizing your skin regularly is important.

  1.   A paste of jojoba oil, honey and fresh curd, all mixed in equal quantities can be used for dry skin. Simply apply the paste in your face for 10 minutes and neck and then wash with luke warm water. A paste of wheat bran or ground almonds with the milk or yogurt can also be used highly as moisturizing agent for the dry skin.
  2.   For oily skin a mixture of equal drops of rose water, fresh orange juice and strawberry oil should be applied in the face for 10 minutes and   then washed and pat dry.



NOTE :

  • Monsoon means more tanning but no worries it can be easily removed by applying a paste of milk, honey and lemon juice. Massage the paste gently in your face or hands etc for around 5-10 minutes and later wash with cold water.
  • Splashing the eyes with cold water also provides great relief.

Automated Token Vending Machines at Delhi Metro

Queuing up for tokens at metro stations will be a past thing now. Delhi metro has taken a step ahead for travelers by providing automated token vending machines on several crowded metro stations in which we need not to stand in a long queues waiting for buying token.
I used to have smart card(card used for metro travelers) but if my relative comes then despite of buying smart card for single visit they have to queue up long for token because of what i too had to wait for them but now these token vending machines have saved a lot of time in no_other_option_situation. Sometimes smart card recharge also have long queues but these machines also help recharge smart  card without any queue.




Today I was travelling from Rajiv chowk  to Nehru place and one of my friend was with me who was not having smart card then without an option we have to stand in the long queue for token then suddenly I glanced at new token vending machine which was in working state so i went there and got the token very easily which saved our almost half an hour and was a new experience in Delhi metro.

The token vending machines are very easy to use and best part is these are touch screen and to use first we have to choose the proffered language i.e either English or Hindi and then have to choose the destination station from the metro map itself and then screen with fare 'll appear and then we are asked for number of tokens and then finally payment in multiple of  notes and finally the tokens with remained change is in the slot.

Learning BPO AND KPO

When ever it comes to working in BPO I always thought it's working in call center but I really wanted to know the difference because if they are same then why called differently. While exploring BPO I came across KPO and all this lead me to learn about the differences and what for these are?


BPO stands for Business Process Outsourcing. It  is responsible for performing a process or a part of a process of another business organisation and  outsourcing is done to save on costs or gain in productivity whereas KPO stands for Knowledge Process Outsourcing it is more based on knowledge then just business while on the other hand call center performs that part of a client's business which involves handling telephone calls.
A call center can be considered a BPO organisation but BPO or KPO are not considered as call center  as there are BPO  organisations, which handle their business through websites, and do not process any telephone calls on behalf of their clients.
