Top 4 Beauty Tips
Here
are the top four best secrets I’ve incorporated into my daily beauty lifestyle
and preach to all of my grooming disciples.
Makeup
Powder
makeup ages you; as you get older, your skin dehydrates. So why sweep on dry
particles that sit on your skin? Cream foundations, blushes and bronzers blend
better and won’t dry you out.
Hair
A
thermal ceramic barrel brush will impart far more volume than a boar-bristle iteration.
A quick blowout with one of these brings me closer to ’70s shampoo commercial
girl hair. Which is always the goal, really.
Nails
I
scored this fabulous nail tip from Connecticut-based nail tech Theresa Stanley:
The best shape for your nails is the one that mimics the shape of the way it
grows from your cuticle. The free edge should be shaped to mirror that.
Bath
and Body
Always
slough off dry skin pre-shower
with a non-oily body scrub. Water dilutes the scrub’s exfoliating properties,
and unless you have an enormous shower in which you can stand away from the
water stream, you risk washing off the scrub before it’s had a chance to
thoroughly remove dead skin cells.
