Some aspects of
beauty may be subjective, but many beauty standards are fixed. Nevertheless, we
know that anyone who wants to look better has a lot of potential beautification
options. Learn to be your most beautiful self by following the tips in this
article.
Apply a
moisturizer that is light before putting a fake tan on your skin. A fake tan
will collect on spots of your skin that are dry. You should make sure you pay
attention to your feet, elbows, knees and around your wrists. Apply lotion to
these areas before applying a fake tanner.
The value of
brushing your hair frequently cannot be underestimated. By brushing it
frequently you help distribute the oils in your scalp, just as when you brush a
dogs fur, it distributes their oils. So, by brushing frequently you help evenly
distribute the oils, vitamins, and minerals throughout your hair, helping it
stay healthy as a whole.
Before putting on
your favorite sandals for the summer season, take the time to moisturize your
feet using Vaseline. Before bed, slather your feet with a thick layer of
Vaseline and cover them with an old pair of socks. As you sleep, the Vaseline
will penetrate thick, calloused skin, helping to eliminate cracks and dryness.
The next morning when you remove the socks, your feet will be soft and supple
so you can wear your favorite sandals with pride.
For beautiful
hair, add oil to your hair care routine. You can make your hair shinier, less
frizzy, and mask graying by adding a few drops of oil to your hair every
morning. Good oils to use are castor, rosemary, or sesame oils. All of them are
cost effective and widely available.
To make your
eyelashes look thicker, dust them with a coat of loose powder before applying
your mascara. Use a small brush to apply a thin layer of translucent powder to
your eyelashes, taking care not to get the powder in your eyes. Follow up with
a coat of your favorite mascara over the top of the powder.
Always remove
makeup before going to bed. If you sleep with your makeup on, you increase the
likelihood you will get acne and blackheads. Makeup can trap dirt and oil on
your face. Clean and tone your face every night. Don't forget to add
moisturizer when you are finished cleaning.
To clean your
skin without depriving it of its natural oils, use a cream cleanser. A cream
cleanser will help lock in the skin healthy oils on your face, and will also
leave your face moisturized and glowing. Using this type of cleanser will slow
the development of fine lines and wrinkles.
To improve your
lip color application, always apply lip balm first. The lip balm will leave
your lips soft and moisturized, and will allow your lip color to go on
smoothly. Try using a basic, untinted lip balm so that you don't effect the color
of the lipstick or lip gloss you're using.
For an
inexpensive, spa-like facial just lean yourself over a bowl of steaming hot
water! Cover or wrap up your hair, fill any container with really hot water and
allow the steam to open and clear your pores! It is soothing and stimulating
and very cost effective. Follow up with cold water to close and refresh pores,
then add moisturizer!
Using a facial
moisturizer is one of the best things you can do to enhance your beauty. Even
if you have oily skin, it is still a good idea. Apply it every single night
before going to sleep. If you have extra dry skin, it is a good idea to also
use moisturizer in the morning as well.
While beauty is
subjective, there are a few basics that everyone should implement into their
routine. Start applying the useful tips you have learned and see what good they
can do.
