You know India right. It’s a country where faith in superstitions and astrology holds good, more than any logic and rationale. But that’s not something to feel morose about. India is also fast adapting, inventing and reinventing new forms of “beautifying” oneself, either naturally or through scientific products and procedures.

Zodiac Facials

Coming to the field of Astrology, it is governed by zodiac signs. And when we talk of the zodiac word, we think it is one of those astro speak and horoscopes which get published in the newspapers, magazines or shown on channels and radio. But if you talk to astrologers, they feel that our zodiac sign relates to something more and interesting than just our love life, health and career progression.

The hint – our zodiac signs can actually throw some light on our beauty routine as well.
