Quick Tip

I am one of those people who hate wasting things.
After I clean my face with facial wipes (I don't use very often) I hate to throw it out right away.
I actually rinse it out and keep them.
I use them as small rags to clean or to wipe or for another purpose...then I throw it out.
Just wanted to share that with you.

What do you do with them?

Save Them

Quick post:
Save those Sephora or Lush's sample containers.
They are really handy when you need them and it is free!
I really love the Lush container - those you have to save.
If you had run out or dont have anything, I suggest you head over to Sephora or Lush to get some samples of your choice for free.
While you are there...you can go shopping :)

Lucky you...3 posts in one day :)

Beauty Tips

I am still new to the make-up/beauty world, so bare with me.
These are tips beauty you may or may not heard before.
If you are a goddess or guru of makeup - this will be boring for you :)

Beauty products should never be in a jar.
Don't know why they cant put it in a tube.
If your favourite product is in a jar make sure you close it up tightly after use.
Air and light can effect the product.

Always wear SPF anywhere that is exposed to the sun.
Yup, even during the winter.
Even if it is 15 SPF on your face, it is better than nothing.
More the merrier.
We don't put on enough.
Go ahead, put on some sunscreen.

Keep yourself hydrated.
After a shower, before you are totally dried, put on some lotion all over yourself.
If you are hungry late at night or have the munchies, drink water.
It is more likely you are thirsty than hungry.

When putting on eye cream, a tiny little dabble is enough.
Use your ring finger to dabble around your eye.

For emergency only, if you ran out your leave-in hair conditioner, you can actually use your regular conditioner and leave it on your hair.  You only need a small amount.

I hope I didn't bored you too much.

Too Much Product

This past weekend I found that I use too much product.
I like to use a heaping blob of shampoo that goes all over my hand.
A little goes a long way.
Products are not cheap so we have to make them last.

Hair
When we are wash our hair, use a small amount to get the dirt and grime out.
To get the the foaming effect...wash the hair twice, but the second time around you only need a dime size amount.

Facial cleaner
We should always cleanse our face regardless if we have make up on or not.  We are washing the grime out from the pollution in the air and the oil from our face.  Use enough to soak the pad and use both sides.

Facial cream
After you wash your face, pat it dry.  It should be slightly damp.  You will be able to use less product when it is damp instead of dry.  Same goes for leave-in hair conditioner - apply on damp hair.

When you are paying $50 or $60 or even $120+ you want it to last for a few months not a few weeks. :)
