2. -wash your hair with cold water after conditioning. -john freda rocks! -for eye makeup, the lightest color goes below the eyebrow, the meduim on the eyelid, and the darkest in the crease, and blend. -victoria's secret lipgloss rocks!
3. use a white eyeliner pencil in the corner of your eyes to make your eyes look awake.
4. Bareminerals... and my shea butter chapstick... I have always been one to not wear much make up. So I keep it simple I only Dive out with wild eyes when I go out to a club and what not. For some reason this shea butter chapstick add a huge shine to my lips and it is good for lips to... I make sure I moisturize daily!! Bareminerals I can express enough how it has helped me!! I love it! it such a great light make up... It feels like nothing and gives good coverage. Lets just say... 26 and I still get Gaspp!!! I thought you where no older than 20- or 21.... I have a few friends that are still Highschool and I blend right in with them ;O) so I must be doing something right... Too funny you should see how people look when they find out I am married to ;O).... *Moisturize daily that is the one thing your skin looses as you get older!! If you have to go to dermatologist to find out what moisturizer is right for you do it! its worth it!*
5. -every night, i take a shower, and when my hair is damp, i apply scrunching foam, brush through, then scrunch, then go to bed. when i wake up in the morning, theres beautiful curls. -i do use toothpaste on zits. i apply right before bed. it doesn't make the pimple completely go away, it just reduces the redness.
6. use lotion on my face then rinse it off with hot water your skin will glow...what guys need to be beautiful too lol
7. toothpaste does not clear up zits it only dries them out so they do not look very red and noticeable.But it does work to dry them up.
8. Well, I have a lot lol! but I will split it up for you... Hair- I shampoo my hair everyday and I condition every other day. I dont condition everyday because my hair gets oily if I do. I usually blow dry my hair 80% dry. Then I split my hair into 3 sections for straitning and I straiten little pieces at a time. Skin- I wash my face everyday. I have very mild acne, but not very bad. I use Aveeno oil free moisturizer with sacylic acid to prevent breakouts. Also, I use aveeno moisturizing lotion everywhere [legs, arms, chest, ect.]. Makeup- For foundation, I use bare minerals. It works like magic! It provides awesome cover up and it feels like you are not wearing any makeup! It also evens out my skin tone beautifully. But sometimes if I am very tired or my face is breaking out pretty badly, I use a tinted moisturizer or oil free liquid foundation to help with the redness. Also, you can put your foundation on a little bit darker underneath your cheeckbone to highlight them more and make them look higher. For eyes, I put white right along my eyebrows underneath to highlight my browbone. Put the meduim shade on your lid and the darkest in the crease. For lashes, I use Cover Girl waterproof mascara. I use the waterproof because I am a student and when I am at P.E. or even walking around campus I sweat a little and it smears. Now for eyeliner I use love my eyes ($0.99 at walmart) brown eyeliner. I ONLY put it on the top and A LITTLE on my bottom lash line. I make the line very very thin and fine because I like the natural look and you can't really tell that you are wearing any! Umm, for blush I use bare minerals~ again I swear by it. Lips I use burts bees tinted chapstick or any little cute lipglosses that I can find (I love lipsmackers). I don't like lipstick because it is too dark for me. Smell- Well, first of all I take showers everyday. For soap I suave sweet pea and lavender. For perfume I use DKNY be delicious and the hollister Malia (the kind with the squishy ball). For deoderant I use secret clinical strength. I don't sweat a lot, but sometimes normal deo/anti persperant dosent completely stop my sweating. So far I have not sweat at all. Nails- Well, I do often paint my nails. But my nails are very thin. So I have to use some cutical thingy that strengthens my nails. I go to the nail salon here and there and get pedicures. I also file and clip my nails and moisturize my hands and feet. Diet and Fitness- I have a membership to my local 24 hour fitness. I go once or twice a week, or if I have time (which I normally don't). But at home I jog in the mornings before class or in the afternoon. I try to eat as healthy as I can but sometimes I pig out on saturdays or that time of the month lol. I eat tons of salads and those little lean cuisine things cause I can't cook and I have no time for it anyways. And I play on my school's volleyball team and I go to dance once a week, so I am pretty in shape. teeth- For my teeth I use crest whitning. There is an old wise tale that baking soda whitens your teeth. I also use crest white strips. Well, that is pretty much all I can think of at the time so yeah. I hope this helped!
9. My Top 10 Beauty Tricks 1) When covering up under eye circles - a Spanish tradition says to slice a potatoe very thinly & ccover your eyes with a slice & allow the juices to seep into the darkness, then put foundation or concealer on, then put a thin layer of poweder over it . . . it lasts longer. 2) If your hair is flat and lifeless, just flip your part over to the other side & boom, instant hair lift. 3) For dry, chapped, flaky lips: before you get in the shower, rub petroleam jelly or lots of Vaseline on your lips, then while in the shower, let the steam hydrate your lips and rub off the dead flakes of lip with a wet, warm washcloth. Or, pop open a vitamin E capsule with a pin and squeeze the contents onto your fingertip, then use it as a gloss for your chapped lips, after a little while, wipe off the dead flakes with a toothbrush. 4) To get the illusino of high cheekbones, apply foundation one shade deeper than your regular foundation shade to the area right below your cheekbones. 5) You know when you wake up & your face looks pale and dead? Well, to wake up your complexion, take an ice cube and rub it all over your face to increase circulation & create a natural luminous glow. 6) When putting on makeup, you have to clip your hair back right? So to prevent dents in your freshly styled hair, slide a tissue between your hair and your hair clip. 7) To keep your teeth super white, an Egyptian tradition is to combine baking soda & coarse salt then apply with your fingers to your teeth & let it set for a minute, then rinse. 8) You know when you wake up in the morning and your eyes are all puffy and swolen? Well, the trick to fixing that is to place 2 metal spoons in the freezer for 5-10 minutes then put the rounded side on your eyelids and wait for the spoon to get hot again. Place spoons back in freezer & repeat as necessary. 9) To get the appearance of fuller lashes, dot dark eye pencil or liner in between lashes 10) When using an eyelash curler (which is amazing for making your eyelashes longer, curlier, and fuller), heat it with your hair dryer for a few seconds to ensure a lasting impression Hope These Are Helpful! :)
