Natural Beauty Tips, Every Girl Should Know

  1. Sleeping on your back will prevent many wrinkles and breakouts on your face, and even wrinkles in your cleavage area
  2. Wearing clothes that are tight make you look heavier. Even a slim girl can bulge over too-tight jeans
  3. Put on a coat of clear nail polish before a colored polish to keep your nails from discoloring
  4. Being angry really does take away from your beauty now and will result in more wrinkles later
  5. Wearing less make-up makes you look younger
  6. Vitamins and minerals are needed for health and beauty, but more is not always better. Too much Vitamin A or Selenium can cause hair loss. There is nothing beautiful about losing your hair
  7. If you are unhappy with a hair conditioner, it will still make a great “shaving cream” for your legs in the shower
  8. When shaving, don’t stretch the skin or you could cause ingrown hairs by shaving hair off slightly under the skin
  9. Drink plenty of water and get eight hours of sleep every day
  10. Tighten bra straps as they stretch out, or buy a new bra when they can’t tighten any further, to keep the bosom looking young and perky
  11. Instead of shaving over and over, with the hairs coming in darker and thicker each time, try waxing. Waxing to remove hair will result in softer hairs each time and result in permanent hair loss after a few sessions. Aussie Nad’s is an all-natural product which is easy to use
  12. Sleeping on two or three pillows at a time, or on an Acid Reflux Sleep Wedge will help get rid of dark circles under your eyes
  13. Exercise while dieting is a must or your skin will be too large (and saggy) for your smaller body. It is much, much tougher to tighten skin after your body shrinks than as you go
  14. After washing your face, rinse in cold water (fair-skinned people should use cool instead of cold) to close the pores and tighten the facial muscles
  15. If you are out of quick-dry spray for nails, dip your fingers into a bowl of ice-cold water. (Don’t to touch the sides of the bowl.) Your nails will dry very quickly
  16. Good posture can make you look much slimmer
  17. Wearing a low heel will give you better posture than wearing flat shoes
  18. Renew thick nail polish by adding a few drops of fingernail polish remover to the bottle
  19. Make a nail polish bottle not get stuck closed, put a thin coat of Vaseline inside the lid
  20. Clean hair brushes occasionally with dish soap and borax. In a dishpan of very warm water, add 1/2 cup of borax and a few drops of liquid dish soap. Swish the brushes to stir, rinse, and let air dry. Scrub any stubborn spots with a used toothbrush
