Not getting the right look no matter how hard you try? Not quite being able to make that right impression? Not getting the attention you have always longed for? Maybe it’s time for a makeover or some beauty tips to be followed to get it all right.
There are a lot of ways by which you can get a complete makeover of yourself. But following the basic steps like skin care and hair care are extremely important as they make the base of your complete look.
Take good care of your skin
Every shade of skin is beautiful, but as we grow older our skin tone can change. Freckles may appear, dark spots can arise, and skin may not be as light as it once was.
One of the easiest ways to stay fair is to use sunblock on a daily basis. Find a moisturizer that includes an SPF of 15 or higher and use it every morning after washing your face. Sunblock not only prevents your skin from getting darker, but also blocks harmful UV rays that can cause cancer and premature aging. Remember your hands when applying sunblock, as they are a prime area for age spots.
Exfoliating once a week will remove dead skin cells to lighten and brighten your skin. Mix two tablespoons oatmeal and two tablespoons brown sugar with a quarter cup of milk, and stir until a paste forms. Gently scrub your face, rinse, and moisturize.
One of the best ways to nourish your skin is to drink plenty of water. Water assists the body with its natural elimination process by flushing unwanted toxins out.
Under eye skin treatment
More than 80% of women around the world suffer from dark circles during some phase of their life. Some even suffer from permanent dark circles. The reasons can be many from loss of sleep, avoiding meals, diet deficiency or even sun exposure. One should be careful while applying anything around your eyes. Due to this we suggest some of the best natural and safe solutions.
Cucumber
Cut thin pieces of cucumber and chill them in fridge. Apply round and thin slices of cucumber over your eyes. Keep your eyes shut. Relax and leave the cucumber on your eyes for 15 minutes.
Ice Cubes
Ice cubes are usually used on dark circles around eyes which are caused due to scorching sun. The dark shadow around eyes is due to the heat and pollution that is faced when one goes out of their house in full sun. Take a small piece of ice cube of enough size to cover your eyes. Place it over your eyes and leave it for few minutes. This helps in lightening the dark circles around your eyes.
Green Gourd
Do the same with the green Gourd. Follow the same procedure that you did with cucumber and you will find beautiful eyes without dark circles. Of course all this will not happen in a matter of seconds but will take some time, meanwhile you can continue with the same procedure as a daily routine for best results.
Hair care
Protect your hair against dandruff. Apply castor oil for a healthy growth of hair. Wash hair with tea once in a week. Do a ’steam-towel-wrap’ once in a while, if your cuticles are damaged, as this steaming opens out the pores and absorbs the oil.
Hot oil treatment is the most practical and time tested natural hair treatment for dry and damaged hairs. When applied hair oils coat your hair shafts giving them shiny and glow, condition them and restore their moisture. Besides hairs these also condition your scalp and skin and are helpful in many dry scalp conditions like eczema. If repeated on regular basis, hot oil treatments are known to prevent hair loss (if it is not due to genetic cause) and promote hair growth. These hair treatments also prevent the formation of split ends; hence help to grow hairs long.
Hair care treatment with natural oils is a great treat for your manes. This nourishes and enhances the elasticity of your hair while repairing and restoring the damaged parts. In fact this is believed to be a natural hair loss treatment that prevent hair loss by improving their circulation and hence nutrition as well as motivates dormant follicles to promote hair growth. You will end with gorgeous silky-soft tresses.
Dandruff care
Dandruff is the peeling of dead skin from your head at a rapid rate. Skin cells are often shed from the skin surface but they are too small to be visible. However, dandruff is shedding of skin cells from scalp in larger aggregates.
Some of the effective and well-known anti-dandruff shampoos are those made from selenium sulfide. Basically dandruff shampoos such as Selsun and Exsel kill yeast and inhibit dead cell turnover.Salicyclic acid shampoos such as T-Sal, Ionil and Sebulex are at times harsh and may turn the scalp excessively dry. Zync pyrithione is the ingredient in popular brands such as Head and Shoulders and Zincon. Shampoos such as Nizoral contain Ketoconazole, an anti-fungal, and cure dandruff by eliminating fungus and yeast. Thus, the treatment for dandruff, being a combination of hygiene, healthy habits and medicines, is comprehensive.
Laying foundation for a fantastic make up
Make up can be a tricky thing. Not everyone knows how to properly use the tools that they have to get the best results possible. No matter how much make up you will be piling on, or how little, starting with the foundation is essential.
