Exfoliate Your Hands- Free And Naturally


We are all coming out of this bitter cold winter, as well as this bitter cold recession. In times of trying to save money, while maintaining our beauty has inspired me to look into past times of how women stayed soft, and beautiful, with natural resources. In the upcoming weeks I will be laying out some of this tricks.

In the meantime, a FANTASTIC exfoliator for your hands, better than any artificial scrub I know is coffee grounds. After you brew your coffee in the morning, let the grounded up beans cool down.

Remove any rings, scoop out the beans with your hand, and over the garbage, start rubbing the back of your hand, in between your fingers, and just about all over for 30 seconds.

Wash off your hands with a moisturizing soap, and feel the difference! Add a layer of moisturizer immediately :)

Red Lips


Everyone secretly wants to wear red lips, but most feel it always looks to harsh when they apply their red lipstick! How can you creep up to wearing a full on red lip? First and foremost you need to moisturize and exfoliate your lips. If you have very dry or chapped lips, first exfoliate with a brand new toothbrush and warm water or try Smashbox's Emulsion Lip Exfoliant. Afterwards, put an intense lip balm on and leave for 5-10 minutes. At this time, blot your lips with a soft tissue to remove most of the lip balm. Take your pointer finger, and rub it directly on the lipstick. Start pressing your finger into your lips, patting from the bottom lip and pressing your lips together. What you are creating is a red lip stain you are literally melting into your lips. You will have the red tint, without the intensity or dryness of the lipstick. Enjoy!
