You can use Vaseline to keep cuticles healthy. This will help to keep your nails as healthy as possible during the day. Additionally, it will help your cuticles and nails be stronger and healthier. Results will be almost immediate - the Vaseline really does make the nails look great very quickly.

Get rid of all hair on your body a day before you engage in a fake tan. Shaving and waxing are both fine, but in either case, you need to wait a day to get the most out of your tanning product. Doing so will help the quality of your tan.

To play up green or hazel eyes and create a candlelit effect, choose eye colors that highlight the gold and green tones in your irises. These colors include silvery pewter, shimmery lavender, light brown, and deep purple.

Always have moisturizer with you if you want your skin to be flawless. This is important if it is cold outside; skin tends to dry out in the winter. Keeping skin moisturized at all times stops dryness and thus, cracking.

If your face is especially square shaped, you can soften the overall appearance and make it appear less angular by using a creamy rose or coral blush. Put the cream blush on the high points of your cheeks and smooth it out towards the temples.

Try eating healthy for better skin, nails and hair! When you do this, your beauty is influenced by what is on the inside, not only by what is on the outside. Always ensure the food choices you make are packed with the nutrients your body needs. To grow strong nails and healthy skin and hair, include whole grains in your diet to provide protein, iron and other minerals.

You want to avoid red eyes at any cost. After all, if you draw attention to your eyes with makeup but they're irritated or inflamed, it defeats the purpose of applying the makeup in the first place. Try to have some eye drops handy so you'll have them if you ever need them. Apply eye drops whenever your eyes feel itchy or tired.

When using something for shimmer, apply it with a light hand and use it only on parts of your body the light is going to hit. You will create a lovely glowing effect in this manner. 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.

Use a tiny bit of a teabag on a ripped fingernail to repair it. You need to take the tea from the teabag first. Then, cut a piece of the teabag that is the size of the tear. Last, place the cut material on the tear, and use clear nail polish to paint over it.

With peppermint oil and purified water you can make your own natural mouthwash. For each ounce of water, add a single drop of oil. Measure your drops of peppermint oil into a high capacity ceramic container and boil your water. Remember to add the boiling water. Using a clean cloth, such as a handkerchief, cover the container, then allow it to cool. Pour the final mixture into a bottle. Make sure the bottle can be tightly closed. Use it as mouthwash!

Fruit juices contain a number of skin-friendly vitamins. A daily intake of essential nutrients found in fruits and vegetables will benefit your entire body, including your skin. Drinking fruit juices is a simple way to get your servings of fruit. Replace soft drinks with juices that are low in sugar, and your skin will thank you for it.

Looking good is not an exact science. The tips above are designed to help you understand what's known about the science of beauty, as well as help you add your own personal touch, enabling you to look unique and interesting. Don't waste your money on gimmicks. Start looking your best today.
