Many people mistake what they see in the media as true beauty. Unfortunately, these standards are often not very realistic. You need to figure out what beauty is to you. The article below has useful advice to help you discover beauty and what it means to you.
Hair Dryer
Give your hair, and your blow dryer, a rest. Intense heat from a curling iron, flatiron, and hair dryer can really damage your hair and scalp. If you must dry your hair, use the low heat setting on the hair dryer. Taking good care of your hair will ensure that it is soft and healthy for many years.
An odd but great trick is to apply Vaseline to your eyebrows right before you head to bed. In the morning, your eyebrows will be shinier and smoother. Be careful you don’t get Vaseline anywhere else on your face, because it can lead to unwelcome breakouts of pimples.
Apply some kind of moisturizer to your face regularly. Even those who have greasy or oily skin should use an oil-free moisturizer every day. Use a lotion that has sun protection in it.
Use some shiny white eye shadow at the dip near the middle of your upper lip to make your lips look plumper. When this area is highlighted, it will reflect the light and make your upper lip seem fuller.
To play up green or hazel eyes and create a candlelit effect, choose eye colors that highlight the gold and green tones in your irises. Some common colors to give this look include light brown, purple, lavender, and pale.
Coconut Oil
Using inexpensive coconut oil is a great alternative to buying expensive facial moisturizer. Not only does virgin coconut oil give skin deep, soothing moisturizing, it also works to minimize wrinkles and fine lines. It also helps treat skin ailments like eczema, acne and psoriasis because of its antibacterial and anti-fungal properties.
Eyeliner and shadow can accent your eyes with a smoky or striking look, but eye redness can undo all of your efforts. Keep your purse stocked with eye drops. Use eye drops to have a clear look to your eyes if you are tired or have spent some time out in the sun.
In order to improve the health of your skin, brush your skin with a soft brush prior to taking a shower. This helps moisturize your skin and stimulates your oil glands. Using a circular motion, start with your feet and work your way up until you reach your face; then take a nice, warm shower using a gentle soap.
Clear Nail Polish
You can patch a torn fingernail with a tea bag and clear nail polish! First, empty the tea from the bag. Next, cut a piece from the empty teabag large enough to cover the tear in your nail. The last step is to put it on the torn area and use clear nail polish to cover it.
Pink will take the attention away from imperfections. It can detract from acne and red puffy eyes.
Make sure you implement shimmery eyeshadow in your beauty routine. Because the shimmery particles in the makeup reflect light, these shadows can create the illusion of bigger, brighter eyes. You should choose from shades that shimmer in a shade close to your own skin tone. Have fun trying out various application techniques and colors.
It’s important not to be influenced too much by what society deems beautiful. Decide what beauty means to you. Apply what you’ve just learned to bring the beauty from within to the surface.
