best insider beauty secrets


Imagine what you would do if you knew miracle working beauty secrets. And if you had the self confidence that comes with being beautiful

Beauty Secret 1
Unchap and beautify your lips with this technique.
For soft, beautifully kissable lips, you need the following: a washcloth (I’m not kidding either), warm water, and your favorite brand of lip balm.First you apply a coat of lip balm. Then wet one corner of the washcloth, put the warm wet corner of the washcloth between your lips, press them together and hold for 5 seconds. Then gently massage any remaining lip balm from lips with the wet corner of the washcloth, and dry lips with a corner that’s dry.Apply lip balm again to keep your lips chap free. You may also apply lipstick or lip gloss on over the layer of lip balm.
I learned this was the best way to keep lips from chapping, after going through too many winters with dried, and chapped lips.


Beauty Secret 2
Clear your acne, and get beautiful skin.
For clear glowing skin, a little home remedy does wonders for my complexion, as it should with yours too.
Steam your face for 20 minutes every night after washing it, then every other night after steaming your face, massage a half teaspoon castor oil over face.Leave it on at night while you sleep and wash off immediately upon waking.Steam face for twenty more minutes in the morning after washing. When you finish steaming your face splash your face with cool water and dry it.If your skin starts to show any signs of a pimple forming. Take one night off from steaming and applying castor oil and apply Benzoyl Peroxide over face.Take the next night off also from the steaming, castor oil, and benzoyl peroxide. Continue facial regimen with steaming and castor oil the following night.This beauty secret will moisturize your face at the same time it will help clear up acne and pimples. But only if you work at it consistently.


Beauty Secret 3
Good taste in clothes.
When shopping for clothes try to stay away from really big prints, or weird mixes of colors (eg. green, pink and blue flowers combined on a white background, for instance).Clothes like these just scream "I’m color blind!" And if you in fact, actually are color blind, always shop with a friend who isn’t and has good taste in clothes.Buy basic colors. Solid reds, pinks, blues, whites, and blacks. Or things with small tasteful prints and designs.Then mix and match each basic color with a corresponding one (blue goes well with white, pink, and sometimes with red, and different shades of the same color almost always go well together).


Beauty Secret 4
Whiten and brighten your smile.
For this little beauty secret you use two household items that
are rock bottom cheap to buy; Baking Soda, and Peroxide.

Yep, thats how simple it is.

You take the baking soda and peroxide and you make a thick
paste out of them. You shouldn’t need more than a tablespoon of the paste. Apply the paste to teeth, and leave on for 5 to 10 minutes every morning and night.

The most effective way to do this, and brighten your smile, is
by brushing your teeth with the paste. Baking soda and peroxide will not only whiten your teeth but clean them too, if you use them in place of toothpaste. Then just sit back and watch the results!
Your smile will become visibly whiter, and to boot you’ll save a bundle on toothpaste, and teeth whiteners.


Put these beauty secrets to use, and start seeing the benefits today.

How to Perform Makeup On Oily Skin?


The problem with applying makeup on oily skin is that the oil collects on the skin and gives it a shiny coating. The makeup may also look patchy and may not last too long.If you have oily skin, wear as little makeup as possible. If you try to cake on the makeup, it will look blotchy and patchy as the day wears on and the viscous oil changes the appearance of your foundation.Following tips help you look and feel better:Have a rigid and good skincare routine. Cleanse, moisturize and tone as a ritual. Use a good cleanser that opens up all your oil and grime clogged pores. Do not overcleanse to get rid of your oil since the skin will simply produce more. If you scrub too much, then also the skin is urged to produce more oil. Even oily skin needs hydrating moisturizer. However, if the moisturizer is inducing worse oily conditions, look for silicon based primers that increase the wearing properties of foundations and prevent its discoloration as well. Some matte foundations are designed to last long too. You can also touch up with blotting powder to reduce the shine.You can also use concealers to reduce the amount of foundation you need for coverage. Do not apply the concealer instead of foundation. Use it judiciously to cover the areas that need covering. Blend, apply foundation and then set the base with an oil absorbing powder.Use one shade lighter foundation to cover up the darkening caused by the oil.Use blotting paper and touchup during the day to pick up the excess oil.Stay away from shiny and shimmery makeup to play down the shiny effect of the oil. You could use shimmer on the lips to distract from other features. Keep cheek color soft and natural.Other Tips:Ensure that your diet is healthy and check with a dietician that you are consuming a diet that helps control your condition.Consult a physician for your skin condition. Some conditions are treatable and you might be the lucky one.Drink lots of water, exercise and use makeup to highlight your best features.Use cosmetics specifically designed for oily skin.Sometimes, using an antiseptic cream before applying makeup keeps the sebaceous secretions under control.Use powder blush rather than cream blush.Use plenty of loose powder to keep the face looking fresh rather than oil caked.Wash your face with cold water several times a day.Apply astringent on clean face, wait for a few minutes and then apply makeup. Astringent helps close pores.A blend of rose water and ice water used on the face 2-3 times a day also helps control oiliness.
