Try These Tips To Stay Fresh And Beautiful

By Lawrence Apricot


At one time, beauty tips were of concern only to women of a certain age. Today though, women - and men - of all ages are realizing the value of advice in this area. After all, looking good is about a lot more than lucky genetics. A little effort expended on tips like these can have big results:

On average, women should exfoliate their skin approximately two times per week to maintain healthy skin, and to enhance overall beauty. Exfoliating your skin rids your face of dead skin cells, toxins, and other impurities that can cause your skin to lack its potential radiance.

Always properly wash your make-up off at night before you go to sleep. Use a gentle washcloth and warm water, or a make-up remover solution. Afterward, wash your face with your normal skin care regimen. Make-up that is not properly removed will clog pores and cause unwanted acne problems.

If your tendency to bite your fingernails is a nervous habit, try taking up a hobby that is sure to keep your hands busy and occupied during your downtime. This could be knitting, sketching, or even doing crossword puzzles. This can save your nails while you watch television, movies, or lounge around the house.

Unless you are suffering from severe acne, you should be sure to use a moisturizer that includes emollients, which help your skin to soak up moisture from the environment. Other ingredients, such as humectants, can actually attract moisture to the skin. Dry skin would benefit from a moisturizer with a heavy, creamy consistency.

If you are someone who likes to wear makeup everyday, have a day at least once a month where you do not wear any makeup. This will allow your face to breathe a bit and it will help keep it healthy. You will notice the next day that your face will look a lot fresher.

When you want the added beauty of curled lashes, and do not want to hassle with getting them to set, try this: before you use the curler, apply a thin coat of mascara to your lashes. Then while your lashes are still wet, use the curler. Doing this will allow you to curl your eyelashes faster and easier.

Beauty is about more than the natural luck of the draw. It can be enhanced greatly with some work. Putting in effort in improving one's appearance can be highly effective if that effort is guided by wise advice. Hopefully the tips presented here can help maximize the results of time and effort spent on beauty.
