Keep your skin cells turning over with exfoliation. Dry or sensitive skin should be exfoliated between one and three times a week in order to reveal the healthy skin hiding underneath. Taking care of your skin by exfoliating it frequently gives your face a radiant, shiny appearance. In addition, your skin will be cleaner and less oily.
Mix your foundation with a moisturizer, as it will stretch the life of your foundation. The moisturizer makes the foundation lighter so your makeup will not look caked on.
Always properly wash your make-up off at night before you go to sleep. A bit of warm water and a soft cloth work very well. After, wash normally. Make-up that isn't removed completely can block pores and cause acne.
It is important to keep all of your makeup pencils sharp. Sharpening will also make them clean, and they will produce a clean line. A little trick to getting a great sharp point is to put them in the refrigerator or freezer 10 minutes before you are going to sharpen them.
Make sure you only use a little bit of shimmer and only in the areas that light will hit. This will create a pleasant glowing effect. Use highlighter on the higher, more defining areas of your face. For example, you could highlight brows, nose and cheekbones. Follow with a loose dusting of face powder.
Dry and brush your skin before bathing to keep cells stimulated. Do the brushing using a circular motion from the bottom up, and then shower gently with soap.
Create an alcohol free, all natural mouthwash by mixing peppermint oil with purified water. Add one drop of peppermint oil for every ounce of water. Boil the water, then measure your oil into a glass container that is large enough to hold your mixture. Add boiling water for the next step. Keep the container covered with a clean handkerchief or other cloth while it cools. Pour the final mixture into a bottle. Make sure the bottle can be tightly closed. Use in place of store bought mouthwash.
