Use shimmery white, pink or silver eyeliner in the inner corner of your eyes to make your eyes look brighter.

After I'm done washing my face, I rinse it with ice cold water. It wakes me up in the morning and also makes my skin look more refreshed Chat Icon

use primer before applying your foundation. It helps your makeup go on smoothly and it will help it stay put.

I blast cold water for the last 30 seconds of my shower...seals your hair and prevents frizz.

something I just started doing recently...

I put foundation (I wear bare minerals) on my eyelids. this takes care of 2 things.

1. any discoloration on my lids
2. helps keep the eyeshadow on longer

toothpaste on a pimple over night helps dry it up... and visine helps de-redden a pimple

Re: Spinoff: Beauty Secrets, Share yours

vaseline is one of the best moisturizers around. I use it under my eyes and on my heels!(got this from an old boyfriends' mother-she was 60 and her skin was beautiful-she used it all over her face and neck)

Take off your eye makeup with baby oil or make up remover. Rubbing and tugging at your eyes gives you crows feet

Moisturize your neck every day-this begins to show age if you don't take care of it.

Put lotion on your hands and some of those yellow rubber dish gloves while you clean-keeps hands soft and clean!

Rinsing your hair with white vinegar once a month removes product build up.

For those of us who work in close quarters with children, it's also a lice deterant.Chat Icon

Re: Spinoff: Beauty Secrets, Share yours

1. Vasaline as a makeup remover. It is so moisturizing and it makes your eyes so smooth

2. I do a hair tx 1x a week. I use EVOO, yess the cooking oil, put it on my wet hair, place saran wrap around my head and wrap a warm towl from the dryer around my head for 30min. While it's on I put on a face mask also and veg out. AFter 30 min I wash my face and hair. My hair is sooooooooooooo shiny and soft. Chat Icon

3. I shave with hair conditioner. I use suave "Biolage", and also use it as a shower lotion 2x a wk during the winter after I wash with ivory soap. It is sooooooooo hydrating for the skin

4. I always brush my lips after I brush my teeth and I always put Bath and Body works Best Lip Bal Every on EVERY night. My lips are soo soft and don't crack at all anymore.

How's that for a few tips????

Vaseline on your teeth. Lipstick won't get on them.

Put hemorrhoid cream under your eyes. It will help with your bags.

If you are going out in a swimsuit, put hemorrhoid cream on your legs, cover them in Saran wrap and layer up on the clothes. Turn up the heat. Do this the night before and sleep like this. This will make your legs tighter and smoother the next day.

Spray hair spray on your butt and your underwear, swimsuit won't ride up.

I used to be a pageant girl and have used all of themChat Icon

Re: Spinoff: Beauty Secrets, Share yours

I put Noxzema on my face everyday as rinse it off with cool water. It keeps your skin free from oils & does not allow pimples to build up (this was my grandma's & she never had a wrinkle)

Make sure I put chap stick on every night before bed & when I wake up. Keeps your lips silky smooth

Always put hand lotion on before bed & in the am. It keeps your skin from drying out.

After shaving my bikini area, I always put lotion to soothe & it also helps in diminishing the grow back.

Yes completely safe, and if you do it the night before you color, it opens up the cuticle and your color will be better absorbed. Chat Icon

I use Listerine (well, the Walmart version) for this and it works really well!

Cocoa butter (the thick stuff) is an incredible moisturizer. I use it on my face when it gets dry, it also saved my face from horrible sunburn once.

Vaseline on lips before bed

Wet eyeshadow with an angle brush & use as eyeliner (works great on top lid) stays longer too

Don't go to bed without washing your face (love aveeno foam face wash)
