Did somebody say Vaseline?

April 17, 2011

Ok, so if you was stuck on a deserted island and you could only bring one beauty product.... what would it be? I asked this question via my facebook and Vaseline was the agreeable beauty product that's a must have on a deserted island. So then I figured I will list some great reasons why Vaseline is a MUST have!!!! I'm pretty sure you will see some things you didn't even know Vaseline could do...

Put a coat of Vaseline on your feet at night, cover the with socks when ya wake up your feet will look and feel like a newborn!!

-Vaseline can cure pimple scars because a component of Vaseline helps rehydrate and at the same time stimulates the growth of new skin cells.

-Put a touch of Vaseline on your eyelashes before you go to bed and they say it will make your lashes grow longer and thinker

-You can mix Vaseline with sea salt to make a scrub

-Maintains a perfume sent longer when applied at perfume points before spaying the perfume

-Applying Vaseline on your teeth prevents lips from sticking to teeth (technique used for beauty pageants)

-Use Vaseline with lipstick and make a cream blush

-WE ALL SHOULD KNOW YOU CAN USE VASELINE FOR DRY CRACKED UP LIPS lol!!!

-Vaseline can tame eyebrows that want to go every where but the right way!

-Vaseline can remove make-up stains from clothes

-When you apply Vaseline around the hairline it can protect your skin from harsh chemicals such as hair dye and perming

-Instead of mascara some time you can just add a touch of Vaseline to your eyelashes which will give off a defined glossy look

-Vaseline can remove false eyelash glue

Well anyhoo that's just a few things Vaseline could do for ya and the list really could go on. Please comment below and let me know if you know of any great ideas/uses for Vaseline besides the obvious i.e cures Dry skin

Hope ya found this to be helpful and if so, please follow my blog...Thanks!

Know your skin type?

April 13, 2011

Oily, Dry, or combination skin...Ugh!! They all can be a bit a pain in the butt! Especially for those who have no clue on how to wear the right foundation that will work with they re skin. Well don't worry honey because I'm here to tell you.

If you are not quite sure on what type of skin you have, there is a simple test you can do. Wash your face and gently dry your face with a towel. Next I don't want you to do anything with your face for about a hour and a half. When your time is up, and your face is feeling extremely tight and dry and you so badly want to just dunk your face in a bowl of vasaline then your skin type is DRY. However, if your face has naturally oiled up a lil or a lot all over your face, your skin type is OILY. Lastly if you noticed that some areas are oily yet some areas are dry then you have COMBINATION skin.

Q: What kind of foundation should I use?

A: Well the rules are if you are oily use a powder (Minerlized recommended) foundation. For dry skin use a liquid foundation. You can you both for Combination skin. I recommend Black Opal True Match Liquid Foundation

Its lightweight, oil free, hypoallergenic formula contains pure silk powders to help refine pours. Vitamins A & E work to protect skin while Allantoin and Panthenol provide comfort and smoothing benefits. I have combination skin and the true match liquid FD really maintains a great feeling and look for my skin.

Another great foundation is for all skin types is Revlon color stay. Which is also a oil free formula. I recommend work with fair skin shades. Both black opal true match and Revlon color stay is a must have in my make up case for me and my clients....so if you ain't know, now ya do! Stay tuned for more informational topics...
