Beauty Tips: Face and Skin

FACE AND SKIN

This next set of tips will focus on making your face and skin beautiful.

1. Skin Type
It’s important to know what skin type you are. Simply use a tissue and hold it to several areas of your skin on by one. Hold the tissue to your face for 30 seconds. You’ll want the tissue to be just a tiny bit soiled. Anything more or less means dry or oily patches.

2. Lovely Lips
Here are some things that you can do to make those lips lovely:
 Apply lip balm several times a day
 Use a lip liner to outline your lips
 Apply lip gloss after you apply lipstick

3. Go Bananas
Bananas make great skin softener. Simply mash a banana and apply it to your face. Leave it on for about ten minutes. It will make your face feel smooth as satin.

4. Freeze It!
For an instant freshen up, spritz your face with cold water or stand with your head in the freezer for a few moments. This will reduce any redness, and give you the rejuvenation your face needs.

5. Protection
If you’re going out into the sun, make sure and wear protection. You’ll want sun block at least an SPF 15 or above. Apply it everywhere the sun will hit you; and don’t forget your lips and earlobes.

6. Go Glow
Need an instant glow for your night out after a long day? Mix equal amounts of lemon and honey in a bowl and apply it to your face. Leave it on for ten minutes, and then wash it off. Your skin will be glowing, and you’ll look fantastic!

7. Fight Wrinkles
Here are some things that you can do to fight wrinkles:
 Apply moisturizer daily
 Be gentle when removing eye makeup
 Wear sunglasses when you’re out
 Quit smoking

8. Tomatoes
If you want to give your face a treat, squash up a tomato and slather it on your face. Tomatoes are rich in antioxidants, and fight ageing effects on the face.

9. Water
Drink plenty of water. You not only need to stay hydrated from the outside, but from the inside as well. You can never drink too much water. Water cools you off, and reduces dehydration. Drink at least ten glasses of water aday.
