All Types of at Home Spa Facial Masks

Miraculous Face Masks
October 31, 2007 Beauty Tips Leave a Comment.

If there is one skincare item that can work miracles, it is a face mask. But, like any other skincare product, you should choose carefully to pick the right facial mask for you.


Mask It!
Choose from the wonderful selection of face masks on the market to find one that is perfect for your skin.


Moisturizing Face Masks - These are ideal for dry complexions because they boost the moisture levels of your skin. This means they can help banish dry parches, flakiness and even fine lines. They work quickly like an intensive moisturizer and are usually left on the skin for 5-10 minutes before being removed with a tissue. The slight residue left on your skin will continue to work until you next cleanse your skin. They are a soothing treat, particularly after too much sun, or when your skin feels “tight”.


Clay and mud Face Masks - Ideal for oily skins, they absorb excess grease and impurities. They are an ideal way to close open pores, reduce shine and clear troublesome blemishes. They dry on your skin over a period of 5-15 minute and then you simply wash them away with warm water, rinsing dead skin cells, dirt and grime away at the same time. They are a fantastic pick-me-up for skin.


Exfoliating Facial Masks with a light exfoliating action can keep your skin in tip-top condition. Even normal skins sometimes suffer from the build-up of dead skin cells, which can create a dull look and lead to future problems such as blackheads. Masks that cleanse and exfoliate are the perfect solution. They smooth on like a clay mask, and are left to dry. When you rinse them away, their tiny abrasive particles slough away the skin’s surface debris.


Peel-off Face Packs are ideal for all skin types, the mask is smoothed on, left to dry and peeled off. This light formulation refreshes oily areas, clears clogged pores and nourishes drier skins.
Gel Face MasksThese are suitable for sensitive skins, as well as oily complexions, as they have a wonderfully soothing and cooling effect.

Three Skin Care Tips

Simple Skin Care Tips

The 3 steps to daily skin care

Step One: Cleanse your face and neck every morning and night. Always gently cleanse in circular motions in an upward direction. You don’t need to use anything but your hands to cleanse, washcloths are optional.

Step Two: Tone your skin every time you wash your face and neck. It is one of the most important steps in your skin care regime, but often forgotten. When you tone, you are adjusting the pH of your skin back to normal which is critical to keep your face balanced and healthy. Toning will also remove any stubborn dirt left on your face and prepare your skin for moisturizing. For best results, gently use a cotton ball in upward motions.

Step Three: This is the most important step. Moisturize your face and neck every morning and night after you cleanse and tone. Always moisturize your face and neck in upward, circular motions with a gentle touch on your face. Don't help gravity by tugging down on your skin and remember that the skin on your face, especially around the eyes, is very delicate.

Extra Pampering

Exfoliate your skin once or twice a week. Exfoliate your face and neck in circular upward gentle motions with very gentle products. Remember that you are simply exfoliating off dead skin which takes very little pressure.

Use Eye Creams. They are designed to super moisturize the finest skin on your face. When you apply eye creams always use your ring finger or pinky to apply products around the delicate area of your eyes. Your pinky and ring finger are weak by nature and force you to apply gentle pressure.

Use Facial Masks on a weekly or bi-weekly basis to detoxify, renew, and tighten your pores. Before you use a facial mask, it is important to cleanse and tone. Be sure to leave the mask on your face and neck for five to twenty minutes depending on the mask type. Gently and thoroughly remove the mask with warm water. After you remove your mask make sure that you tone and moisturize.

What is Eczema?

The word 'eczema' comes from Greek words that mean 'to boil over'. 'Dermatitis' comes from the Greek word for skin and both terms refer to exactly the same skin condition. Eczema may also be referred to as 'atopic eczema' when it is caused by allergies. It is generally pronounced eczeka or exsama. Eczema is a fairly common condition. Statistics on eczema indicate that eczema affects more than 15 million Americans and ten percent of all children. Strangely enough, the condition appears to be getting more common. Some hypothesize that it may have to do with our increasing exposure to chemicals as well as other allergens. Eczema is an itchy inflammation of the skin associated to a varying degree with other features such as:

  • redness of affected areas of skin
  • generally dry skin, which is often thickened in the areas that have been scratched
  • lumps or blisters in affected areas
  • signs of superficial infection such as weeping or crusty deposits.

Makeup Tips for Lips and Eyes

Makeup: Lips and Eyes

Puffy eyes? Bags under your eyes? Apply frozen chamomile bags on your eyelids, fresh cucumbers, Pepperation H, or Put some ice cubes in a bag, wrap in a washcloth, and put on eyes for 5 min. Prepperation H wouldn't help dark circles. dark circles are due to broken capillaries. Stop that picking! The more you touch your face, the more oil gets deposited on it. Makes your pores larger too. Oil=clogged pores, clogged pores= zits and blackheads.

Lips

To make lips look bigger, use a hint of color or clear gloss. Matte, lining inside your lips, and dark lips make them looks smaller. Want to make your lips look fuller? Line the inside of your lip by filling in your lip with color and outline it in a light color ;close to your natural color. Outline outside of your natural line, but just a little. Use an a medium to darker shade lip pencil and draw a faint line just under the middle of your bottom lip. Smudge with your finger, add lipstick or a satin gloss. Apply a light amount of gloss in the center of your lips. It gives the look of a shadow, a fuller lip and the light hits the center of the lip were the gloss is. Do this last.
Do not use a dark brown grey or black eye pencil. This is a common mistake, very unattractive and trassy. Yes they were talking about you, learn darling. :) I'm here for you.

Eyes

Want cream eyeshadow? Apply eyeshadow then a little Vaseline with your regular powder and spread the Vaseline over with a Q-tipnstead . As in Blog Entry March, 2008. Instead of using an eyeliner pencil, make your own liquid liner. Take a small makeup brush and dip it in water. Then, dip in in powder and line your lids. To make powder eyeliner that last much longer, take a small eye brush and dip it into the powder or dry/wet eyeshadow. Apply around eye area as you normally do. You may instead retrace you regular eyeliner with shadow for an easier application.
Eyeshadow creasing or not lasting for long? To make eye shadow stay on longer powder with loose powder, baking soda, cornstarch or baby powder. This is your eyelids for becoming greasy.
I hear a lot of people use hairspray for unruly eyebrows. I prefer to use clear mascara, its quick and easy and you don't need an applicator of any kind. If it doesn't work you may really need to give then a good trimming. Shape them up girl! :)

Lips

Make your own lipgloss: mix some Vaseline in a pot with kool-aid. Mmmmmm tastes great! Never skip the chapstick or vaseline as a base before putting on lipstick when in the mood for glossy lips. Don't lick your lips, It drys them even more.
Lip stain staying power this is very old fashion now with long wearing lipstick but if necessary you can still use this simple old yet effective trick. Always dust your lips with powder first, use a lip pencil to line and fill in lips, apply lipstick matte, next apply lip pencil all over lips again as before. Finally apply gloss to keep them from chapping or drying. Some people like to apply chap stick first but it may make lip color wear away faster. So apply on afterward.

Got a little patch of flaky skin but not enough time to go exfoliate and moisturize? Take a strip of scotch tape, stick it on, tear it off. It may hurt a little and may take a couple "rips" to get the skin off, but it works. When you're done, cleans the area and put on aloe vera or vaseline on to soothe it. Moisturize- very important for your skin to keep it healthy and soft.

9 Steps to A Beautiful Perfect Manicure

For your hands to look their best, nails need to be clean and well cared for. A regular weekly manicure will help keep them in good condition and should only take about half an hour once you have had some practice. For a manicure you will need the following:
Warm soapy water
Cotton
Orange Sticks
Towel
Nail File or Emery Board f. Nail Scissors
Base Coat
Nail Polish i. Nail Polish Remover .



Steps for Manicure At Home


Step 1.File your nails into shape with an emery boards or a nail file to make a smooth even edge. Work with one-way strokes, starting from the corner and working towards the tip. Use long strokes and never saw at the nail.
Step 2.Rinse your hands and dry them carefully. Remove old nail polish using an acetone-free remover and cotton.
Step 3.Soak your nails for three or four minutes in warm soapy water to which a few drops of lemon juice and olive oil have been added. This helps to soften and clean hands at the same time. Dry them carefully. Dig your nails into a soapy sponge to clean under the nail tips.
Step 4.Gently lift up the skin around the nails with a orange sticks. Take care not to break the skin, which is called the cuticle. Under the cuticle the new nail is growing.
Step 5.Hang nails are broken bits of dry skin around the nail. They can be very painful and the skin can become infected. Cut the hangnail close to the skin, with sharp nail scissors. Use hand cream to keep the skin supple.
Step 6.Lay your hand on a flat surface and brush on a base coat to prevent the nails from staining. This also strengthens your nails and allows the polish to be applied more smoothly.
Step 7.Apply polish, starting with one brushstroke in the middle of the nail and then one on each side.
Step 8.When dry apply the second coat of color in the same way. Be sure to wait until each coat is quite dry before applying the next.
Step 9.
To avoid chipping, apply a base coat to seal the polish underneath.

How to Create Smoky Cat Eyes

How to Create Smoky Cat Eyes
January 10, 2008 Makeup Tips
Smoky cat eyes are the in thing in eye make up.Smoking out your eyes would draw attention to your eyes and make you stand apart in a crowd. Creating smoky cat eyes is also not that difficult a process though it requires some amount of practice and patience. Smokey eye makeup is essentially an eye specific makeup application that highlights the brow bone while darkening the eye lids.


Most of the times creating smoky cat eyes, is all about applying your eyeliner properly. As mentioned earlier it does take some time and practice to get a well-balanced hand for proper application of an eyeliner. If you are beginner then it is always recommended that you start out with an eyeliner pencil and then gradually move on to other eyeliners.


In order to create smoky cat eyes you will need a black eyeliner pencil, dark eye shadow, a black eyeliner brush, an eyebrow pencil and black mascara. Begin with drawling a soft line from the corner of the eyelid towards the end of your eyelash line. After this you will need to use the eye shadow brush in order to apply the dark eye shadow over the smudged eyeliner line that you have already drawn. You can then draw a thick line on your top lid with the help of the brush eyeliner. The line should be preferably thicker at the outer corner of the eye. Using your eyebrow pencil you should now try and make your eyebrow curve more pronounced. You can then apply thin coats of mascara while allowing for the coat to dry in between the applications.
By following these steps you can create that perfect smoky cat eyes look.

Mascara along with lipstick is perhaps among the most loved cosmetics as far as women are concerned.Mascara can make eyelashes look longer and thicker while at the same time making your eyes look fuller and attractive in next to no time. Till the arrival of waterproof mascaras there was the problem of mascara coming off whenever it made contact with water. With waterproof mascara all these problems are a thing of the past. Women can wear waterproof mascara to the beach and pool with the confidence that they will not flake or smudge easily. Waterproof mascaras are also great for the summer and rainy seasons.


How to Apply Waterproof Mascara


Whenever you apply waterproof mascara make sure that the mascara covers your eye lashes from the root to the tip. If you want to apply any other eye-make up you should ensure that you curl your lashes with an eyelash curler before you do so. Shorter mascara brushes are always preferable since they would give you more control which is essential, especially when you are applying mascara at the corner of your eyes.
Choosing Mascara Colors
There is wide variety of colors that you choose from when it comes to waterproof mascaras. A good choice would be the latest colored high impact mascaras which make a bold fashion statement. For a much more natural look you should always match the color of your mascara with that of your hair. For example, blondes would always look good in a browner shade while black would perfectly suit brunettes. The right colored mascara, if applied properly, can make you the cynosure of all eyes, whatever the occasion.

Need a quick hair fix

Need a quick hair fix ?
Do have time to use a styling product on your hair. I did this on a trip to Hawaii. 1st i took a scented thick body cream and applied it not only to may skin to hydrate , add scent to my body, but also used it to keep fly-aways.
You can use a dryer sheets for hair static. After brushing apply to hair by rubbing it. You MUST not move it upwards or up and down. That will cause more static and strain the hair. I like to carry a small spray bottle (travel size) hair conditioner in my purse.
