DVD Night: ‘The Twilight Saga: Eclipse’

This is the third movie in The Twilight Saga, a series of five films adapted from Stephenie Meyer’s quartet of novels, and it comes out on DVD this week! Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner reprise their roles from the two earlier movies, but this time around there’s a new director, David Slade. The teenage heroine Bella Swan (Stewart) is still pursuing the vampire Edward Cullen (Pattinson), but she has another suitor, the hunky American Indian werewolf Jacob Black (Lautner). But now Edward and Jacob must team up to protect Bella from the vampire army created by the villainess Victoria (Bryce Dallas Howard).

Which team are you on – Jacob or Edward?

  • Quick Tip: Stop Your Nails from Peeling

    My fingernails peel like crazy, they’re impossible, especially in the fall and winter seasons. But during a manicure, the tech gave me a couple of great tips that have helped a lot! For starters, avoid quick-dry nail polish, and do not spray them with quick-dry sprays. These polishes break down faster and dry out your nails, causing them to peel. Also, do not file nails when they are wet, the file will tear at them leaving them weak and more prone to peeling. These tips have definitely helped me and hopefully they can do the same for you!

    Myth Monday: Cutting Your Hair Will Make It Grow Faster

    This is so wrong.  Your hair will grow at the same speed with or without a haircut. So if you want to grow it out, simply let it do that. Regular haircuts will help improve the overall health of your hair as well as getting rid of those pesky split ends. But if you are looking for length give it time. It will grow!
