Improper beauty regimens can negatively affect you, both physically and emotionally. You need to do a lot of basic research so that you don’t burn, harm, or irritate your hair, skin, or nails when trying to beautify yourself. There are some tips listed below to help you get started with a beauty regimen that is right for you.
If you want to add a pinch of color to your face midday, consider stocking up on a stick of cream blush or a gel-based cheek blusher. Apply a small amount to the apples of your cheek, then blending in circular motions. This keeps your face looking fresh in a natural and easily applied in a manner that is especially flattering.
Symmetry has been shown by several studies to be the most desirable aspect of beauty. When developing your own beauty routine, keep this in mind. When you apply make-up or trim facial hair make sure each side is even.
Keep your eye gel in your refrigerator. This can help soothe puffy eyes or dark circles around your eyes. Cool eye gel can really make your eyes look refreshed after a long night out. Just apply it as you normally would to see results that are immediate and will last all day.
Take your time applying a fake tan. Make sure you have at least 30 minutes before going to bed or getting dressed. If you are in a hurry then wait to do it because you may get streaky results. It is important to make sure you properly apply a fake tan.
To help your eyeliner last all day, apply a thin layer of eyeshadow in a matching color over the top of it. Most eyeliners have a tendency to fade or run throughout the day. This is particularly true for oil-based eyeliner pencils. You can eliminate this problem by brushing a layer of matching eyeshadow directly over the top of the eyeliner using a thin makeup brush. This helps to set it so it stays in place all day.
A “hot spray” can be used to protect hair from heat damage during blow drying. This product should be applied before using a blow dryer. This is sold in the beauty section of any big box store and many drug stores, and helps to prevent split ends. It also helps your hair dry more quickly. It seals in moisturizer and smells wonderful.
Put on lip balm every day. Lip balm is an essential ingredient in keeping your lips beautiful. You should apply it to your lips at night when you go to bed, and in the morning before you put any lipstick or gloss on your lips. Your lips will stay looking younger and fuller.
Avoid commercial “body butters” that contain chemicals, dyes and additives. All natural walnut oil or peanut oil make wonderful all-over body moisturizers. They are very inexpensive and are scent free. If you want scent, you can add the essential oil of your choice. After your bath, slather walnut or peanut oil on lavishly. Wrap up in an old terry-cloth robe and curl up with a good book or a movie while your moisture treatment soaks in.
Experiment with shimmery eye shadows when choosing and applying makeup. Glittery eye shadow provides a sparkling effect that makes your eyes stand out. Select an eye shadow color that is close to your skin’s natural color. It’s fun to try new colors as well as different ways to wear them. You’ll love the new looks that you come up with.
Having nice eyelashes will greatly improve the appearance of your face. Use your eyelash curler daily, prior to applying mascara. Eyes attract attention to the face, and curly lashes really enhance the eyes!
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.
If you are a makeup addict, designate the first day of each month as a “no makeup day.” This can help your face breathe and look healthy. After allowing your skin some time without makeup, you will find your skin looks a lot better for it.
Beauty is subjective. If you are healthy, take care of your body, and are confident, you have beauty right now. Do not allow things others say to make you feel down when you have worked hard at making yourself look good.
If you are diligent in your daily hygiene routine by brushing your teeth and using mouthwash, yet you still have a problem with bad breath, you must remember to floss, as well. Flossing dislodges bacteria that are between your teeth, which could be causing the odor problem. It is recommended you floss daily.
Did you get a look at yourself in a public mirror and notice how oily your skin looks? Don’t fret. Tear off a corner of toilet paper, and dab it on your skin to soak up the oil and shine. The hard toilet paper is an excellent blotter, and you look picture perfect again.
