Beauty Tips

If you are traveling or simply want to avoid the mess of hot wax, look for pre- waxed strips. Also, if your hair is coarse, be sure to exfoliate the day after the waxing to help eliminate in-grown hairs.

Choose your powder according to your coverage needs. Cream-to-powder for full coverage, pressed powder for medium and loose powder for minimal. Choose a powder that compliments your foundation.

When choosing a dress that contains elements of sheer fabrics, stick to black, since this color deems the outfit appropriate for evening wear. Sheer fabrics in black are more favorable than eyesore shades.

Prunes are high in vitamin C and iron. This is beneficial for men hoping to jump start their libidos because vitamin C is needed for the production of testosterone and iron plays a role in hormone production.

Anytime you buy a new makeup item, observe how your skin reacts. If you find yourself experiencing acne cosmetica, stop using the product and with diligent skincare, the acne should clear up on its own.

Unless you plan to stay inside all summer, limit your use of retinoids, retinols and high-concentrations of AHAs. These make your skin much more sensitive to the sun, doing more damage to your skin.
