Beauty Quickie: Get a softer pucker by combining olive oil and sugar in a small cup or container. Add enough sugar to the oil so that the consistency resembles a skin scrub that you would normally purchase from the beauty aisle. Lastly, add 3-4 drops of peppermint oil to the mixture then blend well. Apply this scrub to your lips to remove any dead skin or rough areas that need to be smoothed. To remove you may rinse or lick off this edible lip scrub once you are done ex-foliating.
At night your body rests and rejuvenates itself which is why what’s often referred to as “beauty rest” is so important. Nevertheless, there are other beauty related routines you could be doing to enhance the beauty you already possess. For instance, would you like to naturally grow longer, fuller lashes in just a few months? This article will tell you exactly how to do it!

Beauty Quickie: Soft, touchable hands can be yours by simply performing a quick hand treatment on a daily basis. Begin by applying coconut oil to your cuticles and the backs of your hands then slip both hands into a pair of cotton gloves. Perform this treatment every night and you will always wake up with silky smooth hands.

Weight training will help prevent such losses as well as increase bone mineral density that will keep osteoporosis at bay.

We spied with our beauty eyes a few ladies holding a pink party and we want in on that action! Pink eyes and pink lips (muted of course) are a stunning combo for the cooler months ahead. Extend the color on the eyes outward in the same vein of a cat-eye to add more edginess to your look.
