    Default Favourite Simple Beauty Secrets?

    Most girls seem to have their own simple little beauty secrets that they use to keep themselves looking nice.

    After washing my hair, I often rinse it out with a bottle of cold Evian spring water. It makes my hair go really soft and shiny cos that water is so pure. Much nicer than the water that comes out of the shower head.

    Does anyone else have any beauty secrets they'd like to share?

    Doesn't that get expensive??


    My little beauty tip I swear by is I use hospital strength antibiotic gel on my zits to prevent scarring. (I get it from my mom, she's a nurse). Even when I have huge zits theat seem to have a chunk of skin gone in the middle, I get no scar if I put the gel on it.

    Bepathen. I use it for EVERYTHING practically: zits, scares, bruises, cuts, and so on. I swear by it. I always have a tube for home-use and a tube for work-use.

    Olive oil in my bath a few times a month, and in my hair once a month.

    Every once in a while I like to make a paste of baking soda and water and then carefully scrub my face with it. It exfoliates so well and leaves my skin feeling, I don't know, kind of "perky" and super smooth. And it's gentle enough too (I have super-sensitive skin).

    I use a loofah in the shower/ bath. It makes you feel so clean and refreshed.
    My skin feels so fresh.
    Also moisturize with good cream.
    I get complimented quite often on my soft skin.

    I have impossibly dry skin, and spend pretty much half my life trying to keep it even vaguely hydrated. I've finally figured out an effective method though-- Alpha Keri after my showers, and even a bit on my face. (I rarely break out.) Then Eucerin Plus Lotion whenever I'm feeling dry-- my derm reccomended it, and it's really amazing.
    I also exfoliate with kosher salt mixed with baby oil... I used to use sugar mixed with olive oil and lemon juice, which probably worked even better, but I actually had such low self control that I would end up eating it almost every time. I would shave my legs with it, and they would feel really insanely delicious afterward. I may actually have to try that again today...
    When I lose my mascara and have to use a cheap fallback, a put a tiny bit of vaseline on my eyelashes first-- for some reason, it seems to prevent it from clumping.

    Vaseline on the lips overnight when they get chapped - it's magic!

    A scrub/masque of honey and sugar - mix them together, rub it around on you face to exfoliate, and then leave it on for a while. My face is always super smooth and soft afterwards.

    And finally, aftershave on the bikini line after I shave to prevent razorburn.

    I use baby oil gel (the chammomile scent doesn't smell like baby) immediately after I get out of the shower, and then after I smooth that on I immediately put on a heavy lotion like the Tutti Dolce Chocolate stuff I've got right now. I smell good enough to eat, unfortunately I am not that flexible.

    I use Braggs apple cider vinegar as a final hair rinse to close and flatten the cuticle. It makes my hair super shiny! I get a large bowl, fill it half way and add about 1 tbsp acv. Then i either dip my head into the bowl for about 10 seconds or simply just pour it onto my head. It brings the hair and scalp back to its normal pH. Your hair won't smell like vinegar either once it dries.

    Lol, that's so weird...I was just telling this exactly to someone else.

    I love apple cider vinegar!

    My beauty secret is emu oil. I put a thin layer on my cleansed face before I go to bed. It gives moisture and nutrients to the skin, and helps plump up some of my fine lines. Works better than any expensive night cream or serum has for me.

    Towel dry your hair before you apply your conditioner. Applying conditioner to wet hair it useless - it sloughs off before your hair has a chance to absorb it properly.

    Drink lots and lots and lots of water.

    I forgot to add in my above post that baking soda is also a great alternative for deodorant/antiperspirant. I don't believe in using antiperspirant due to the aluminum which may be linked to alzheimers. It's safe, all natural and it works! After getting out of the shower apply a small amount to your underarms while they're still moist. Gently pat it in and don't rub, as the baking soda can be abrasive. Just be sure to throw it out when it expires. It usually lasts for about a month but I find I can keep my box for about two months. I buy the small boxes at walmart for about $.44.

    Hello,

    My secret is basically "go back to nature". I have a few things that I add to my daily routine, and the nice thing is- most of the ingredients are already in my kitchen. So here goes;

    1. Cod liver oil taken once a day has done some amazing things for my skin. In good conscience I must add that it is very important to be in good health and not exceed recommended dosage due to the high amount of vitamin A and D. I myself take one tablespoon in the morning however, it may be a good idea to double-check with a physician first (everyone’s body is different).

    2. After many expensive creams and products that resulted in little to no results I have finally decided to try something my mother has always recommended- Extra Virgin Olive Oil! You want to get a quality olive oil, preferably one that comes in a dark glass bottle which helps to protect the oil from going bad due to light exposure. I use the oil lightly for under eye area as moisturizer as well as on my hands and nails (olive oil will penetrate skin unlike many creams that just sit on top of the skin getting all caked or evaporating). It is also great as a substitute to anti-frizz serums, and a wonderful conditioner for scalp (as a lady above has already mentioned).

    3. Lemon juice (works like a mini micro-dermabrasion treatment). Soak a cotton ball and sprinkle sugar on top. Lightly massage in small circles on your neck or décolleté (if too strong dilute with water). This will fade discolouration, sun-damage, and even out pigmentation. The vitamin C is great for your skin leaving it feeling fresh and smooth. I like to apply pure aloe vera gel to the area immediately after for a soothing effect. Aloe vera also helps to stimulate the circulation in the area afterwards and aids in stimulating body’s natural collagen and cell renewal.
    *This is not a daily routine, I do this twice a month maybe*

    4. Lastly, to avoid nasty capillaries, spider veins and all that lovely stuff, add a tablespoon of fresh chopped parsley to your diet for a good boost in vitamin K.

    That's it! I really hope this helps, I know that all of you ladies have helped very much with so much of wonderful advice and tips. Stay healthy and beautiful
