Basic Tips To Keep You Beautiful

By Sarah Gillenwater


Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so when it comes to enhancing personal beauty, you have to ask yourself some questions. What do YOU want? Enhancing your beauty doesn't have to mean a dramatic change. Ask yourself the questions outlined in this article and follow the suggestions for small steps you can take to make yourself a more beautiful you.

Use anti-aging treatment at night before you go to sleep. Retinol-based products have properties that benefit skin cells. These products are often thick in consistency, so applying them during the day may not be the best time. Applying these products at night will give your skin a chance to be refreshed as you sleep.

Do not smoke if you care about preserving your beauty. It has been shown that smoking speeds up the aging process. Many people who smoke look much older than they are. It is very hard to quit smoking, but with determination on your part it can be done. You will need to if you want to continue looking your best.

Use a good concealer to hide dark shadows or dark spots, and freshen your complexion by applying a little blush on the apples of your cheeks. The blush should always be well-blended; "bars" of blush are not only unnatural, but make you look years older. Give your eyes a more alert look with a bright, highlighting eye shadow placed right below your eyebrows. Your upper lashes can benefit from mascara to create a strong line that opens up your eyes and takes the focus off of under-eye bags. A darker eyeliner on the outer margin of your upper lid helps enhance this effect. Accent your lips with lip gloss in fresh colors. Because of the softer texture of lip gloss, fine lines disappear around your lips and the gloss creates a look of more lip volume.

Spend time outside with the proper protection. Sunshine can help enhance your beauty by giving your skin a healthy glow. If you are too pale, you appear sickly. Be sure and use a sunscreen with a UV rating of over 15 to ensure your safety and then get out there and spend some time outside.

A great general item that you should have in your bag is lip balm. Lip balm is great for many things, not just moisturizing your lips. Lip balm can be used to smooth down fly away hairs. Lip balm can also be use to soften and moisturize cuticles and can be a great help with at home manicures.

You also need to make sure that you take steps to keep your skin clean. Much of the toxins in the air end up as a coating on your skin. This has very negative effects on your body. Over the counter products work well for most people, however you should speak to a dermatologist to find a skin care package that fits your needs specifically. They are educated with the latest research and can help you decide which products will benefit you the most.

Even if your skin tends to be somewhat oily, you still need to use a daily moisturizer. Look for one which is easily absorbed by the skin and is not heavy. One of the best skin moisturizers is coconut oil, and it can be found in some moisturizing preparations or use it alone.

Apply a lip gloss to make your lips shine. This takes less time to do than applying lipstick because lip gloss is more forgiving.

Anyone can achieve beauty, it's that simple. The thing about being beautiful is that it comes from both in and out of your body. Yes personality does play a big factor in being beautiful but also your physical appearance is what makes you who you are as well. So use everything you learned today and see what changes you can make in your beauty.
