Tattoo Removal Methods

Although tattoos are supposed to be a lifelong statement sometimes, despite our best intentions the desire to remove certain tattoos invariably emerges. Despite the fact that completely removing a tattoo is extremely difficult nowadays there are plenty of methods you can use to get closer to the desired goal.


Tattoos can be a wonderful form of self expression through art when chosen adequately. However at times even the most well throughout decision can be regretted for various reasons.

Fortunately nowadays living with the consequences of a bad decision is no longer necessary as there are several methods that can be used to diminish if not to completely eliminate the problem. Nowadays there are various procedures with varying degrees of efficiency that can be used.
Covering up a tattoo is perhaps one the best options for those are thinking about getting a new tattoo. Although this technique can prove to be quite difficult as its success depends on several different factors, talking to a skilled tattoo artist about this possibility is an option that is worth taking into account as it can be a viable alternative. Check out tattoo artist Kat von D's tattoo concealer ($25) available exclusively at Sephora.

It is also possible to camouflage a tattoo by injecting a pigment that resembles one's skin tone for a more natural look. Generally the price ranges when it comes to these techniques are very similar to those of a regular tattoo.

Tattoo removal creams are some of the cheapest tattoo removal methods available for those who who a painless method of getting rid of an unwanted tattoo. These creams have to be applied repeatedly over the course of several months in order to be able to see a gradual fading of the tattoo. It should be mentioned that the efficiency is not 100% proven. Also because there are a great variety of creams available it can be hard to establish which ones really work according to the claims made. Consulting a dermatologist and testing for allergies beforehand is important if you are thinking about using this method.

Dermabrasion and salabration are two tattoo removal methods that are sometimes used together for a more pronounced effect. Dermabrasion requires rubbing the skin surface with a rough material in order to remove pigment.

Salabration is a very similar technique that requires soaking the tattoo in a saline solution before undergoing dermabrasion. Multiple sessions are required in order to get a somewhat satisfying result. These methods can often lead to scarring and infections and tattooed areas will fade at best. Although only somewhat painful these methods are rarely used nowadays.

Laser tattoo removal is perhaps the most popular method to get rid of a tattoo being also one of the most effective ones. The laser works by breaking the tattoo ink in smaller pieces and eventually stimulating the immune system to clear it up. Similar to other methods, noticeable differences can be seen after several sessions. This method albeit effective can be quite costly depending on the size of the tattooed area. Scarring is still possible although in many cases it is minimal.

Intense Pulse Light Therapy (IPL) is a tattoo removal method similar to laser tattoo removal though it is considered to be less painful and more effective. The principles by which this method works are also very similar the difference being that is more expensive than the other method. The price is established depending on the number of pulses and the number of sessions required.

Surgically removing a tattoo is a rather extreme option that many people prefer to stay away from due to the fact that softer methods with a high degree of efficiency are now available. However regardless of the method that most appeals to you it is important to get as much information as possible beforehand to be able to get the best results.

Versace Resort 2011 Collection

Versace Resort 2011 Collection, Resort fashion trends 2011: Donatella Versace did everything to make her Resort 2011 collection bright and youthful. She used vibrant colors, designed provocative mini skirts and clinging dresses and created oh-so-lovely summery high-boots that remind me gladiators but actually look feminine.Versace Resort 2011 looks very pretty and stylish. Besides, it is rather simple that makes the outits it comprises perfect for daywear and even some for officewear. However, I can’t see any garments that would look appropriate on the red carpet. Yes, I know there are ordinary collections as well as couture ones to serve that purpose, but I’m used to see chic sophicticated dresses in each Versace collection. So, don’t blame me.
The innovative accessory from Versace Resort 2011 range that I’m almost freaking about is a knapsack looky-likey that broke down into four bags. Looks interesting and would be ideal for those ladies who always carry millions of things with them.

Fall Fashion Collection 2010 of Erdem at London fashion show

Fall Fashion Collection 2010 of Erdem at London fashion show: Erdem Moralioglu’s twin sister, Sara, makes TV documentaries about geography and natural history. He’s been looking at her films, watching the survival movie Alive, and thinking, he said, “about Picnic at Hanging Rock: girls surviving on the mountain.
Elegantly, sort of.” Moralioglu quotes these sorts of sources with a wry smile, in the full knowledge that they’re pure fashion whimsy. In practical terms, what it meant was he’d come up with an autumnal palette of brown, ocher, teal, rust, and tan for his prints and coats, and a gray as dirty as a leaden November sky for a lace dress.
The thing about being a designer of pretty dresses is that it takes something a little odd to keep it young and just left of conventional. Sometimes, with Erdem, it’s an overload of sweetness, embroidery, and froth that does it. In this case, it was the color, slightly off and more somber than usual. Though most of the shapes—Moralioglu’s familiar short, stiffly belled skirts and high-necked long gowns—stayed the same, the effects worked well here and there. A cloudy gray tulle dress with bird appliqués and a yellow silk number, its puffed sleeves vertically patterned with autumn leaves, had the kind of slightly weird aura that would turn heads at a cocktail party; and all the long finale dresses had Moralioglu’s signature delicate romance about them. Otherwise, with an eye to the fact that this was an outdoorsy collection, he added a few coats to keep his girls warm in the woods. A neat camel trench with a shearling-lined hood had members of the audience planning personal orders as they struggled out into the rain-swept London streets.

Pre-Fall fashion collection 2010 of Roberto Cavalli at London fashion show

Pre-Fall fashion collection 2010 of Roberto Cavalli at London fashion show: With high-necked lace blouses, jet beading, and funereal black capelets on one hand, and tight little tailored jackets, ribbed leggings, and knee-high boots on the other, Roberto Cavalli’s pre-fall collection felt like an unholy union of Queen Victoria and Pat Benatar.
Unlikely as it sounds, the collection worked best when the two sides met in the same outfit, as they did with a big bat-wing poncho in black cashmere draped with a sable capelet dripping jet (and worn with leggings and ankle boots). The animal prints and the artisanal leatherwork (combined with marmot, astrakhan, and mink in one jacket) echoed the vulgar zest of vintage Cavalli, but it was actually the prim sobriety of vintage Victoriana that left the lasting impression. A strange and somber tack for Cavalli to take.

What Women’s Swimwear 2011 Men Like Best

What Women’s Swimwear 2011 Men Like Best: It is common truth that men and women are different, and so are our choices and preferences. Therefore, if you’ve selected something to wear and want to look great in it you better ask for your boyfriend’s opinion as he will tell you what most other men will think of your attire. Speaking about swimwear this truth also works, and that’s why I decided to tell you what women’s swimwear men like best. Don’t we all want guys to admire us on the beach?Marie Claire magazine asked 100 random men about some of the most popular trends of nowadays. And as it turned out some of our favorite pieces do not seems attractive to guys. Surprised? I was, too.

It’s not a secret that we, girls, often try to find a swimsuit that looks special but facts show that men prefer more conservative styles. Standard two-piece bikini is said to be guy’s most favored suit. 91 percent of men said it looks great. It is sexy and still provides good coverage. And someone even noted that bikini resembles a bra and panties, items that make us look oh-so-tempting. Only 9 percent didn’t like the cut.

The String Bikini comes next. Women tend to believe that the more flesh is exposed the more seductive they look. It isn’t always true according to the poll discussed. 26 percent of men said string bikini is too revealing and leaves little to imagination. So, do they want mystery??? 74 percent of respondednts confessed they were fans of the triangles-and-string ensemble.

I was really amazed to know that one-piece swimsuit seems very flattering to men, 65 percent prefer the look and only 35 percent don’t. However, statictics shows that very few women wear such style of swimwear.

The Tankini is great to cover the problem areas all of us tend to have from time to time. Introduced in the late ’90s, the tankini grew in popularity because of its combination of the modesty of a one-piece with the convenience and style of a two-piece. And now 53 percent of men say they like the look while 47 percent don’t.

The Monokini which is the hottest trend of modernity in swim fashion is not very popular with men. Actually just 22 percent liked the look. The other 78 percent commented: “I don’t get it.”

The High-Fashion Bikini that is the one with studs, grommets and beaded detailing is liked by 17 percent of guys. Others say they don’t really like the innovations of such kind.
Well, girls, we should know this. And next time when packing your beach bag think about who you want to please more: guys or other women.
