10 beauty tips that will change your life

Beauty Tips

In beauty, we often forget to get out of our habits. Yet sometimes it takes just a little bit to make all the difference. Here are our top 10 beauty tips that will revolutionize your life (or almost).

1 - REVIEW YOUR WAY TO APPLY YOUR EYE CONTOUR CREAM

It's not a myth: applying too much cream around the eyes tends to make them swell. Woe, should we therefore choose between fine lines and puffy eyes? Rest assured, nothing prevents you from using an eye contour treatment ... provided you do not make a simple mistake. Instead of spreading it generously over the entire area around the eye, apply it by tapping along the orbital bone (no, no, we don't get closer to the eye). The active ingredients will rise by capillary action, making the contour of your eyes benefit from the treatment without overloading it with matter.

2 - DRY SHAMPOO, A FRIEND WHO WANTS YOU GOOD

Do you still need to sing the praises of dry shampoo to you? If it doesn't replace a classic long-term shampoo, it's still the superhero product par excellence. Not content to save you the day in the mornings when you don't have time to go through the shampoo box, it is second to none to give volume and body to your hair, and makes it easier to hold hairstyles. But the real bonus is that by allowing you to space out the shampoos, it prevents you from over-aggressing your lengths, and slows down the washout of your colors.

3- MAKE A PLACE OF VEGETABLE OIL IN YOUR BATHROOM

Vegetable oil is one of these versatile beauty products that are too often underestimated. Sweet almond, coconut, jojoba, argan ... Make your choice and give it the place it deserves on the shelf in your bathroom. You can use it to remove make-up (it is extremely effective, especially on waterproof make-up), but also in care for dry hair, for the body, in massage… And to make your care more nourishing, add in 2 or 3 drops to your usual cream. Baby skin effect guaranteed!

4 – UNTANGLE YOUR HAIR BEFORE WASHING IT

It's a simple trick, and yet it makes all the difference. Before jumping in the shower, remember to comb your hair thoroughly. This will prevent breakage during shampooing, and allow you to use less conditioner than usual to detangle them. By avoiding overloading your hair with product, they will be less likely to be weighed down and regrease less quickly. Double benefit!

5 –30 SECONDS TO MAKE YOUR LIPSTICK HOLD TWICE LONGER

In the same manner that you powder your skin to fix your makeup, it is quite possible to powder your lipstick. How? 'Or' What ? After applying it, absorb the excess by pressing your lips on a tissue. Then peel off a layer of a clean tissue and hold it over your mouth. Then come and apply translucent loose powder with a brush over this thin layer of tissue. The right dose will pass through the fibers. Your lipstick will have a matte finish and the color will last twice as long!

6 - APPLY YOUR MASCARA ON THE BOTTOM LASHES BEFORE THE TOP LASHES

If you regularly find yourself with mascara stains above the eyelid, this tip is for you. This is a mistake that we all made with mascara: when you tilt your head forward and open your eyes wide to apply it to the lower lashes, the upper ones - which are not yet dry - come touch your upper eyelid and leave marks. Change your habits! By applying your mascara to the bottom lashes first, you will avoid this annoying phenomenon. And rest assured, while you make up the upper lashes, the lower ones will have nothing to stain.

7 – TWIST YOUR DAMP HAIR FOR HEAT-FREE WAVES

Do you like having beautiful wavy hair but don't want to put them through the heat test too often? All in your honor. Instead, opt for the twist technique: when you let your hair air dry, twist it around your fingers while it is still damp. Do 4 or 5 twists on each side of your head, and fix them in a large clamp. Once your hair is completely dry, crumple it up with your fingers and lacquer for better hold.

8 - MAKE-UP WITH COTTON SWAB

Fashion make-up artists have understood this for a long time: cotton swabs are not only used to clean the ears! On the contrary, these small tools are devilishly useful for makeup. We don't even count their usefulness anymore: melting a khol pencil, erasing a concealer applied a little too generously, blurring an outline of the lips that is too clean… And soaked with a few drops of micellar water, the cotton swab is also of great help to correct a line of eyeliner. Because - between us - who can boast of getting there every time the first time?

9 - USE YOUR LIPSTICK LIKE A BLUSH CREAM

For a quick and simple makeup, here is an idea that will simplify your life. No need for blush and brush. Just grab your favorite lipstick and apply a small amount to your cheeks, blending it with your fingers, just like you would with a cream blush. For a strong hold, go for satin or semi-matt textures to more glossy finishes. The advantage of this technique? No more thinking to coordinate your blush with your lipstick. Disadvantage ? This method is not recommended for the most oily skin, which will prefer powder blushes for better hold.

10 - MASSAGE YOUR FACE

We grant it, this is no longer one of the tricks that will save you time, but… Incorporating even two minutes of facial massage with vegetable oil in your evening care routine could well have bluffing effects. In addition to being relaxing, massage stimulates blood and lymphatic circulation, promotes the elimination of toxins and impurities, and restores elasticity and tone to the facial muscles. The result is firmer, more radiant, clearer and softer skin. A practice particularly beneficial for mature skin and people with an irregular skin texture.
