Gentlemen: What women do in front of mirror?

Bookmark and Share

If you have women around house…wife, sister, GF, mumsy…then you are well aware of their endless, shameless, infinite sit-n-stare-n-do something routine in front of the mirror. This ‘do something’ has always sort of amazed and puzzled me. Well apart from the fact that its a self-righteous, self-assessing, self-self task of admiring, this do something is made up of couple of artistic tasks. Finally I get to understand some of that lingo from brushes, to concealers, to mascara to whatchma callit…So without further ado here are couple of things I have discovered…And ladies…no harm done in exposing some of your beauty tricks that you so artistically use for those killer looks :)

1. Eye of the storm:

This video explains the routine for creating those dazzling eyes that we men call from gazelle eyes to sultry eyes to plain old witch look

2. Smack my Lips up:

If you have heard of Prodigy..you get the idea. If not then, this is the routine for the magic behind lush, lusty, pouty glory. Admit it boys…the dream of every man gets born in this video…

3. Jaw dropping awe:

Ever wondered why women have those jaw dropping faces?! Well the hidden trick is called contouring or sculpting where women masterfully use a few strokes of brushes and color to create them. And the end result is, you see early morning bloated faces, turn into diva’s with picture perfect magazine shots.

4. Hair to Hair..they do care:
In olden times men wore hats and so did women..so there wasnt much to do with the hair. Time flew by and so did the hats..into history. The hair on men’s head too flew away with time [most of them now are bald or dont want hair]. But for women the biggest challenge has since become their hair. Their hair had to answer for the loss of hats. With a few brushes here, few fingers there, few irons right there, and some imagination running amok, women have hair as their crowning glory…watch on

5. To sum it all up..

Ladies…you have earned more of my respect for two things. One for the efforts and imagination you impart on every day just for u men folk..and second justify the price tags and bills for your makeup needs. Carry on….cheers.

UPDATE: NBK card fiasco

Bookmark and Share

The GM office of NBK just called in to update me on the issue of NBK card fiasco. NBK management was notified of the case and they reviewed the whole thing. NBK management accepted the facts that were raised, and has apologized for the episode. Also NBK has re-instated my card limits. Although the mini-card remains closed, because this action was applicable on all mini-card holders.

NBK and NBK management, your apology is duly accepted. And thank you for taking time to review my case.

I do have some suggestions if they can be implemented:

  • Please update all your customers by email and/or letter about the rules that are being followed for credit card holders after the Central Bank initiative
  • Please add the above notice [credit card regulations] on your website especially on the NBK online-banking page
  • In Kuwait very few people have direct mailing addresses [residential], but nearly everyone has a direct mailing address at their workplace. Please send in important correspondence to workplace
  • Do advice your call center people to escalate the issue to available line managers if they are unable to resolve it over the phone

With this episode behind us…lets hope for a better business-customer relationship in future.

Best wishes…
