Tips and Tricks

I always love to read about different beauty tips that people have. I always find that whatever I read, I try out and see how it works. After years of being a beauty junkie I've come up with some tricks myself.

Tip #1 Softer lips

You will need: 

-Chapstick with SPF 

-Regular office tape 

-Toothbrush

-Your favourite lipstick (Mine's Dolly Pink by Barry M)

With the sun recently peaking out of it's winter coma, it's probably a good idea to give your lips a little TLC. It's probably best to do this at night or in the morning when you brush your teeth. First take two pieces of tape, small enough to cover both your top and bottom lip - this will take off all the dead skin cells (Have a look at the tape after to see for your self - it's gross!) Then brush your lips with toothpaste, not too hard. It will tingle after and give that plump look without the fillers. Once your done add some chapstick to get the moisture back in your lips, the slap on some lipstick and your good to go.

Tip #2 Keeping rings from turning green:

You will need: 

-Your favourite ring 

-Clear nail polish (Mine's NYC clear polish)

Everyone always has this problem - it's the curse of only being able to afford costume jewellery. This is the simplest trick and takes seconds. Take your ring and paint the inside of it with clear nail polish - give it about two coats and wallah! Just keep applying coats every month or so and your finger will never turn green.

Tip #3 Softer skin

You will need: 

-Any type of lotion

-Baby oil 

-Loofah  

This is a great way to get super soft skin on the go. Get yourself a really good loofah and scrub your skin dry. A lot of the time you read to do it in the shower but I think that it gets more dead skin off this way. Just remember not to do it so hard as you'll end up with sore red skin. Once your done Lather with lotion and let dry. For instant shine and glow, add a dollop of baby oil.
