Quick Tip:
No matter the shade of your skin always use sunscreen!  The sun does not discriminate.
An ounce (shot glass) is enough for the average person

Easy Trick for Oily Noses

Why spend up to $20 on blotting paper at Sephora?   

You can go to the bodega (aka corner store) and use cigarette papers.  It blots excess oil just as well and only cost about 50 cents!

Old Make Up

I think we are all guilty of this...  Keeping make up past its due date.  Are you aware of the bacteria that grows in make up?  Clean out your makeup bag. Old makeup can cause more harm than good.

Sleeping Beauty

After a hard night of partying make sure you wash your face.  Sleeping with your make up on is one of the worst things you can do.  To tired? Use makeup wipes or baby wipes.  Yes baby wipes works like a charm. 

Stop being a pain!

Want painless tweezing?

 Use Anbesol gel on your brows before you pluck.  This will numb area and take care of any pain.  Happy tweezing!

"You say tomato, I say tomahto"

Who knew the stuff that you can use for sauces and soups can tighten your pores.

Take 1/4 cup of tomato paste warm in the microwave, smear on your face wait 5 minutes 

then rinse.

Hey Lipstick Lovers

What do you when your at the very end of the tube?  

Don't throw away!

Do this:

-Use a lip brush and keep in the tube or...

-Scoop out into a mini pot.  I like the ones from Sephora. Although any mini pot can do.
-Apply with lip brush.  This is great way to use till the last drop. 

Several lipsticks broken?

-Scoop out into pillbox and apply with a lip brush.
