Teen party help.

Hiya, my daughter wants to do an 'ANTM' themed birthday party. Of course we have to have 'Tyra Mail' and we actually cannot find any printable tyra mail online at all! We also want to change it so it has my daughters name on it and copying and pasting that 'Tyra mail' image won't do it, we'd want the same text etc. Any links? :)

    I really don't know what you mean???? what is "ANTM" and who is "Tyra"???? I think others may have the same problem & that is why you have had no replies!

    There are a lot of similar looking fonts like the one on the Tyra mail available on the net. You can just download the font and print the invitation on a purple scented paper.

    just an idea but the funky fish (gurra rufa fish) places - some of them have party rooms, mainly for hen parties etc, but my friend had her daughter go with few other girls and they all had feet pampering together and then went to have lunch somewhere.

    not sure of all of the details but sounds much easier than getting it all ready at home.

    The other thing you could do, if you were having it at home is search for a pamper party in your area? or mobile fish feet company......
    my bday is this weekend and im 7 months pregnant so cant do anything too exciting, we have found lots of fresh fruit skin care recipes and going to try out facials, pedicures, manicures etc with the recipes......

    here's some that i shortlisted with the help of a friend who works at a spa



    Buy a small bottle of glycerin BP from a chemists or Superdrug. You may have to ask for it.

    Mix three teaspoon's worth into 200ml of tap water. Put some zest from either an orange or a lemon in it to taste, and you have a very reasonable skin toner. It will work just as well as one you buy BUT do throw it away within twenty four hours. Unlike the commercial stuff it doesn't have a preservative so will potentially grow germs if you leave it for too long.



    Happy Hand Exfoliant
    Say good-bye to dry, cracked hands. Even if your gloves haven't been doing their job this winter, this easy-to-make exfoliant will slough off all those dead skin cells. Plus, it cleanses and moisturizes, leaving hands soft and smooth.
    Ingredients:
    1 ounce ground almonds
    1 teaspoon clear honey
    2 teaspoons walnut or sunflower oil
    1 teaspoon lemon juice
    Directions:
    Mix all ingredients together into a thick paste.
    Rub a heaping teaspoon all over the hands for two to three minutes and rinse off. Use whenever your hands need some extra TLC.


    Peach-and-Honey Mask
    This revitalizing peach and honey mask is almost good enough to eat. But what you'll really love about it is how it leaves your skin feeling soft and supple.
    Ingredients:
    1 large peach or nectarine, skinned
    3 teaspoons honey
    A pinch of lecithin powder or 2 tablespoons yogurt
    Directions:
    Mash the peach and honey together, add a little lecithin powder or 2 tablespoons yogurt until you have a workable paste. Pat evenly over your face and neck and around the eyes. Lie back and relax for about 10 minutes. Rinse off with warm water, pat dry, then tone and moisturize as you normally would.

    Wake-Up Call Facial
    Avocado and yogurt enrich and soften; honey moisturizes and smooths; lemon juice tones and refreshes.
    Ingredients:
    2 tablespoons ripe avocado
    1 teaspoon honey
    1 teaspoon lemon juice
    1 teaspoon plain yogurt
    Directions:
    Mash ingredients together in a bowl and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Then apply to just-cleansed face and lie down for 10 minutes. Rinse with lukewarm water; gently pat dry.




    Shoe Deodorizer
    Ingredients:
    6 Measuring Tablespoons Cornstarch
    2 1/2 Measuring Tablespoons Baking Soda
    18 Drops Tea Tree Essential Oil
    21 Drops Rosemary Essential Oil, 7 Drops Lemon Essential Oil
    6 Drops Clove Essential Oil
    Notes: My daughter has the worst feet!! A grown man that has been working 10
    hours in the hot sun wearing the same work boots (and socks) he's worn for the
    last 5 years would not smell as bad! We realized it was not her feet, it was her sneakers. They apparently do not allow her feet to breathe. We decided a powder in the shoes to deodorize and kill anything that might be living in her shoes-- although I can't imagine how it would survive. It is working well for her, and we can all breathe when she takes her shoes off now!!
    Directions: To make the sneaker powder measure your cornstarch and baking soda
    and mix them together in a bowl. Next add the essential oils indicated in ingredients. Stir this up with a spoon until the oils have mixed in well with the powders. I put 1 Tablespoon in each sneaker and rub it in; of course, an adult with larger shoes may need a little more. At night seems to work the best, it allows the powder to sit in the shoe and do its thing for awhile before it is worn again. My daughter does wear socks with her shoes when they have the powder in them.

    Homemade moisturiser
    I bought glycerin from the chemist (about 2pounds)
    I bought rosewater from the supermarket (about 2 pounds)
    I made a 50/50 mixture, put it in a small bottle and have massaged it into my face, neck each night.


    STRAWBERRY AND OAT EXFOLIATING MASK
    20g/2tbsp ground oats
    3 ripe large strawberries
    5ml/1 tsp single (light) cream
    grind oats to a fine powder using pestle and mortar. Mash up strawberries using a fork and mix with the oats. Add enough cream to make a paste. Apply the pack to your face and leave on for 10 mins. gentle remove with coool water then pat dry.

    Foot Soak
    Bowl of water with some vinegar , bicarb and tea tree oil in

    Face cream
    In a food processor or blender, combine 1/2 cucumber, 1 tablespoon yogurt, a few strawberries, and 1 teaspoon honey. Apply to face and allow to dry. Gently wipe off with a damp wash cloth.

    Grind 1 tablespoon almonds into a fine meal in a blender or food processor. Mix almond meal together with 1 tablespoon honey and 1 egg white. Apply to face and let set for about 15 minutes. Gently wipe off with a damp wash cloth.

    To loosen blackheads, combine equal parts baking soda and water in your hand and rub gently on your skin for 2 to 3 minutes. Rinse with warm water.

    Mash half of an avocado and apply to entire face. Let set for about 20 minutes and then gently wipe off with a damp wash cloth.

    Soak 1 cup dried apricots in water until softened. Puree in blender or food processor with 2 tablespoons skim milk powder. Apply to face and let set about 15 minutes. Gently wipe off with a damp wash cloth.

    Puree 1/2 peeled, sliced cucumber in a blender or food processor and add 1 tablespoon yogurt. Apply to face and let set about 20 minutes. Gently wipe off with a damp wash cloth.

    Crush a handful of strawberries and mix well with 1 teaspoon honey. Apply to face and let set for about 15 minutes. Gently wipe off with a damp wash cloth.

    Mix 1 1/2 teaspoons honey, the juice from 1/2 of a lemon, and 1 small carton plain yogurt. Stir in 1 whipped egg white. Apply to face and let set about 15 minutes. Gently wipe off with a damp wash cloth.

    Hand treatment
    Mix 1 tablespoon (not tab ) olive oil & 1 tablespoon sugar together. Massage into fingers and tops of hands. After 2 minutes, rinse off with warm water. My hands felt so nice. You can also do this on your feet.

    Wrinkle Removal Recipe
    Banana is wonderful as an anti-wrinkle treatment.. Mash 1/4 banana until very creamy. Spread all over face and leave for 15-20 minutes before rinsing off with warm water followed by a dash of cold. Gently pat dry.
    Cut seedless grape in half and rub slight crush onto wrinkle area, leave for 10 mins


    Carrot Facial Mask
    Ingredients Needed:
    2-3 large carrots
    4 1/2 tablespoons honey
    Directions: Cook carrots, then mash. Mix with honey. Apply gently to the skin, wait 10 minutes. Rinse off with cool water.

    Honey Facial Mask
    Perhaps the best facial mask is honey.
    Place a cloth in warm water and apply to your face to open the pores. Smear on honey, and leave on for 15 to 30 minutes. Rinse off with warm water, then use cold water to close the pores.

    Dark Circles Under Eyes
    To lighten dark circles under your eyes, wrap a grated raw potato in cheesecloth and apply to eyelids for 15-20 minutes. Wipe off the residue and apply an eye cream.


    Orange Yogurt Mask
    * 1 tsp plain yogurt (I chose Balkan Style)
    * the juice of 1/4 of an orange
    Stir to mix and then dip fingers into mixture and smooth onto face. The sensation is both cool and relaxing. Leave on for a five minutes and then rinse. If you are feeling sluggish, this is the perfect mask for you.
    * Yogurt will cleanse and nourish your skin
    * The orange is full of Vitamin C and AHA's.

    White Nails
    To whiten your nails, try these:
    * Use a common whitening toothpaste. Try scrubbing your nails with Pearl Drops, it's just as easy as achieving a pearly white smile and will take away any stains and shine up your nails.
    * Soak your nails in water with lemon juice or lemon slices. The lemon acts as an astringent and will strip away stains. Once your hands are dry, you'll only need to put on a couple of coats of a clear topcoat.

    This recipe will remove facial hair.
    you will need:
    Egg white
    Sugar
    Corn Flour
    Procedure:
    Blend the egg white with sugar and corn flour. Blend it well until it becomes a sticky paste. Apply the mixture to your face. When it dries gently peel it off. Repeat this three to four times a week.

    Egg & Honey Mask Recipe
    Mix together 1 tablespoon honey, 1 egg yolk, 1/2 teaspoon almond oil and 1 tablespoon yogurt. Honey stimulates and smooths, egg and almond oil penetrate and moisturize, and yogurt refines and tightens pores

    I wonder if that recipe for facial hair really works, the wrinkle and dark eye ones seem good although I had to smile as this whole thread was about a children's party.
