Beauty is unique grace and confidence, a
shining light that sparkles through the eyes and smile. If you are
looking for makeup tips, tricks and beauty secrets to help you make the
most
of your natural beauty and feel good naked, you've come to the right
place.
Using a good skin moisturiserand pay special
attention to dry areas such as elbows, knees and feet. Massaging not
only helps your circulation it also helps to smooth out bumps and
wrinkles and will enhance your natural beauty. Olive oil, an
old-fashioned beauty secret, will give your skin a luxurious look as
well as making it soft and supple to touch.
Another good beauty secret
is to go for soft lighting, such as candles, tea lights or softly
coloured light bulbs.
Make
a pitcher of lemonade or ice tea and sit outside to watch the sun set
or enjoy the stars while it is still warm enough. Hydroxy acids help
your skin make new hyaluronic acid, which is found in the deeper dermal
layers of the skin, and will plump up the skin.
Hairstyles can go in
and out of fashion at the drop of a hat, but if you stick to a style to
suit your face you'll never need to use that hat to cover up.
Keep
nails clipped between pedicures. People tend to judge others by the
care they put into their hands and feet.
Using sunscreen every day, even if it is cloudy or rainy outside.
Choose a moisturizer or lotion that
has a SPF or UV protection built in so that you can get two benefits
from one application. Regular cleansing is important and must be done
properly. Exfoliation is a also essential for skin care
Cleansing with a shampoo suited to your hair type. Toothpaste
in a flavour you like, preferably with fluoride.
Mascara can make anyone's eyes look bigger and
brighter. If you have short or straight eyelashes, curl them first
before applying mascara.
