Best Beauty/Skincare Advice

Please share 1 or more beauty/skincare advice you’re received that you feel changed your routine.

My top 3 are:

  1. Importance of sunscreen
  2. Less is more (Skincare and make-up)
  3. Whatever skincare products I apply to my face, I also need to apply to my neck/upper chest and hands. Many women put a lot of focus on looking younger by taking care of their face and it works, but their neck/hand doesn’t “match” and gives away the fact that they’re much older.

^In addition to the above:

  1. Drink plenty of water as this keeps the skin hydrated and glowing.
  2. ALWAYS remove your makeup at the end of the day (even if you come home late from a function and are super tired!)

Re: Best Beauty/Skincare Advice

exfoliate/scrub atleast once a week for smooth skin

Re: Best Beauty/Skincare Advice

1.Drink as much of water as you can.
2.Moisturise moisturise and moisturise.
3.Scrubbing helps alottt
4.Dry brushing (i'm in love with it)
5.do take shower :D i have seen people who just keep on adding layers of make up on their faces and don't take of their personal hygiene.

and patience is the key ,we get impatient as we start something for the results and if we don't notice any change we stop using it,we should religiously follow treatment especially in acne and give skin some time to respond.

Re: Best Beauty/Skincare Advice

patience is indeed the most needed when it comes to skin care.

I have being using treatment for my acne for 2 months now..the results are so slow that i am on the verge of giving up every week.

Using lemon on skin :)

Add some fruits and vegetables to your daily meal. Do some exercise every day it will help you to have a good skin also. Make some green smoothies or fruit smoothies it is better than drinking some soda or artificial fruit juices. Avoid eating salty foods like junk foods and other processed foods as much as possible. Wear sunglasses and sunscreen to avoid other skin problems.

Re: Best Beauty/Skincare Advice

I love water and I wish I could drink gallons of it all the time to keep my skin and system well but the only problem for me is that as much as I get used to drinking water, I still have to go to the bathroom every couple of times and it's a real drag if i'm studying at the library with my laptop and books. Drinking water would mean I would have to leave all my stuff......and i'm studying all the time. it sux!!

Because of that I don't think I get as much water. Am I the only one with this problem?

Re: Best Beauty/Skincare Advice

using a sun block esp in hotter climatic regions

Re: Best Beauty/Skincare Advice

All of the ones y all have mentioned in addition to the fact that the eyebrows frame the face so it is very important to have them be symmetrical/looking the same on both sides, not too thin and to never tweeze too much off the bottom.

Anastasia's tutorials are just so wonderful on youtube.

eyeliner should never be one thin line and we do need to smudge it on the bottom eyelid. The youtube tutorials on lining the upper eyelid near the lashes on the the outer edge to make the eyes look bigger are wonderful and helped a lot.

  • Eating well
  • Drinking lots of water *Using Rose water as a toner - I think i saw this suggestion on here years ago and Ive stuck with it - I keep it in a spray bottle and just spray my face, really perks up my complexion *Eating Berries - Especially blueberries on an empty stomach, they can turn around a bad skin phase in a week!

Re: Best Beauty/Skincare Advice

Drink more water, and sleep well. Staying up late will kill yourself..

Yep used to have that problem all the time in university years. Even now, I have an annoying bladder which prevents me from drinking the amount of water I would love to drink ideally.

Re: Best Beauty/Skincare Advice

Eating healthy diet.
Apply sunscreen lotion with spf 15 before going to outside.
Use home made face pack such as yogurt, egg mask, Neem pack, Cucumber
