so i posted in another thread about a beauty tip and everyone seemed to like it - so maybe everyone has tips that they would like to share?

here are mine:

*after i straighten my hair i go over it with a dryer sheet to get rid of frizz

*i use a TOUCH of vaseline to keep my eyebrows in place and if i want to make my eyelashes look purty i put a touch of vaseline on my fingers and rub two my eyelashes btw two fingers. . .this is great if your lashes get all powdery from eyeshadow

*i keep a wide tooth comb in the shower to comb through conditioner

share your tips i love trying out new tricks!

Also, if you're running late in the morning, and you look really tired, use white eyeliner or eyeshadow, and apply it to the inner lid line of your bottom lid (does that make sense ).

Bottom lashline - that inner lip....

It works wonders! I swear by it.

It's not personal beauty related but I hate when the mirror is all foggy after a shower (don't have fan/vent in my br) so I use my hairdryer to clear up the mirrors more quickly and then i don't have the towl / water lines all over (make sense)

Also (I just thought of this because of the airbrush vs reg. make-up thread), sometimes I'll dab clear lip gloss on my cheeks to give it that glow/dewey look.

I also use lip gloss for fly-away hairs if I'm out and don't have gel!

Vaseline Intensive Care Hand Cream is supposed to be amazingly good for your hands! Not sure where I read it but prob one of those mags!! It makes your hands super soft and youthful which will come in handy when pictures are taken!!

I should say it's impossible to find - I've only come across it on Amazon.com - so maybe that's a good sign!

OK I have one YEAH!!!
Well I haven't done this yet but, my mom's eye doctor says if you mix 1 part baby Johnson shampoo and 6 part water and rub it on your eyelashes every night before you go to sleep, it will 1 take off make-up and 2 make your eyelashes grow..
Apparently they grow because your cleaning your growth ducks on your eyes. Mom said it works!!!

I do this too... I'll plop an ivory shadow right in the corners to brighten my eyes up.

Also, and this really works for blue-eyed gals... To make my eyes pop, and something else I do when I look tired, I line my eyes with blue eyeshadow (I don't use eyeliner either, like someone else said)... it really make your blue eyes pop and the tired-ness in them go away.

I'm also a HUGE fan of Bag Balm... it's the most amazing stuff and I've only recently seen it available down here (I used to only be able to find it upstate). It's sort of like Vaseline, but not as thick. I use it for EVERYTHING!!!! And it's great when I want to give my lips that dewy look..

I got a good one!! To make your teeth look really white, put on blue lipgloss over your regular lipstick. It sounds bizarre, but totally works! Thats how Gwen Stefani gets her teeth to look so good.

to make your hair extra soft and shiny (I'm doing this for my wedding and already did it for both proms) after you take a shower and wash your hair, dump a bowl of rain water on your hair. Something in the rain water makes your hair so healthy. I just keep an eye out for rain around my event and put 2 bowls outside to collect the rain.

Re: NWR: Any Beauty Tips?

also for the girls that do wera eye shadow...if you use a creme eyeshadow before the powder, it stays all day. and with lipstick, if you brush some eyeshadow over your lips before lipstick, it stays a lot longer

Re: NWR: Any Beauty Tips?

Mayo is also good for your hair, supposed to make it shiny...you do some treatment with it and leave it on fora few mins then wash it out

truelove5803 Posted: Mar 15, 2007 10:55 AM

Re: NWR: Any Beauty Tips?

yeah, mayo and also lemon juice....

Re: NWR: Any Beauty Tips?

Visene (sp?) also dries up pimples.

After I get my eyebrows waxed, I get really swollen and red and break out in hives....I use Preperation H on them and it goes away in less than an hour.

I know everyone knows about cucumbers on your eyes, but my mom also said you can put used teabags on your eyes!

Re: NWR: Any Beauty Tips?

maybe no one else has this problem,but FH LOVES onions, and eats cut onions in almost everything. My hands always smell like onions. My mom told me that lemon juice gets rid of the smell, so I tried it but then my hands smelled of lemons all day...that was almost as bad. I ended up buying the lemon scented antibacterial soap from bath and body, and that works just as good! I wash my hands with that then another soap and I'm smell free!
