I know I have the best hair. When I was a kid, my classmates used to teased me that I’m putting something in my hair so to make it looks like an oily one. But the truth is I put nothing on them. My hair grows normally and they are really oily where it looks like I really spread baby oil or some hair oil to make it shiny. Actually my bath rituals only include soaping my hair and my entire body with any bath soap. I don’t have these shampoos and conditioners for some additional rites when taking a bath. As I remember, I started using those scented shampoos and conditioners when I was already 21 because I like the smell and the way they are packaged. Till then, I’m already used to it and I can’t have my bath when I can’t see any shampoos on my lil’ basket. When I was 13 my hair is long, purely black, shiny and sometimes cut in shaggy style. It stayed that way till I was 19. I started coloring my hair when I was 20 for a change to my aura and then happen to make it curl for sometimes but I usually let it last only for four months and cut it again.
Now, I have a grape red hair cut in a shaggy style with a bangs and that’s it! I still consider my hair as the first class hair since I don’t need to go to parlors to fix and treat them all the time. Moisturizer for my face, lotion for my body, a scent from my perfumes or colognes, light make-ups, best outfit for the day and additional accessories as add-ons to make your day and fashion just right! Oh! By the way, I often dress for comfort and not actually for fashion.
See what I want to share with you out here. It’s beauty tips and tricks and found out what could you make something for yourself too, for a change I guess. Forget those old fashions and dull styles. Hey gurls! Were living in a new generations now out here and we’re ought to express ourselves the best way we can... Gotcha!
7 Easy Beauty Tricks for the Best You Ever!Here, simple strategies to help you score everything from shinier hair to a perkier butt.
Your Goal: Neat CuticlesThe Strategy: Curb Your Impulse to CutWant to get hand-model hands? Resist the urge to trim your cuticles. "Your body overcompensates for what you're cutting away," says Tabitha Caputo, the nail director at New York City's Paul Labreque Salon & Spa. To wean yourself, rub in a good cuticle oil twice a day (olive oil can also get the job done, but if you buy something specifically for your nails, you'll be more likely to use it) and push your cuticles back with a washcloth after every shower. Within a month, they won't grow back as quickly or as thick, says Caputo. If you really can't stand them, once a week let a cuticle remover, such as Orly Cutique — which only whisks away dead skin — sit on your nails for a minute or two. Then, push back the cuticle and apply oil.Try: Essie Apricot Cuticle Oil

Your Goal: Gorgeous SkinThe Strategy: Fight InflammationBy now, you know that the first line of defense against premature aging is sunscreen. But the latest studies show that inflammation — a by-product of sun damage and some chronic conditions, such as rosacea — leads to further breakdown of collagen and elastin fibers. "Everything in the skin that's related to aging is related to inflammation," says Patricia Wexler, M.D., a New York City dermatologist. How to fight it? In the next year or two, you'll be seeing a plethora of facial products that target inflammation, according to Alexa Boer Kimball, M.D., a Boston-based dermatologist. But in the meantime, continue slathering on the 'screen and add an antioxidant cream or serum to your regimen to combat free-radical damage (which triggers inflammation).Try: Kinerase, Murad Energizing Pomegranate Moisturizer SPF 15 Your Goal: Pain-Free FeetThe Strategy: Visit a Podiatrist"By the time most people enter adulthood, they're wearing shoes that are one-half to a full size too small," says Leslie Campbell, D.P.M., a podiatrist and spokesperson for the American Podiatric Medical Association. This can lead to everything from bunions to hammertoes, which are not only unsightly but can be painful. In addition to properly sizing your feet and helping you find the right shoes — which can include heels, as long as they don't twist from side to side and bend only in the toe box — podiatrists have solutions for more cosmetic concerns, such as discolored corns (a problem for women of color) and varicose veins around the ankles. Incidentally, a visit to the podiatrist is covered by most insurance companies.
Your Goal: A Fresh Makeup LookThe Strategy: Experiment with a New HueThe best way to
make a makeup change is to choose the feature you get
complimented on most, and play it up with a color that's the complete opposite of what you normally wear, says makeup artist Victoria Jackson, creator of Lola cosmetics. Like neutrals? Go for color. Like color? Try earth tones. Almost any hue is wearable, says Jackson, since cosmetics these days are so sheer. Two exceptions: purples and fuchsias, which generally take more skill to apply. Try them on your nails to start. Bonus: January is a good time to experiment, since drug- and department stores often mark down their holiday palettes, which contain fun shade assortments.
Your Goal: Speedy Weight LossThe Strategy: Stop Exercising So MuchSorry, it's not quite what you think: You still need to exercise — daily, if possible — but rather than cramming your sweat session into one 30-minute stretch, do it in three 10-minute bursts throughout the day. According to new research from the University of Missouri-Columbia, intermittent physical activity (such as jogging or walking with weights) is just as effective at clearing fat from the bloodstream as exercising continuously for 30 minutes. Furthermore, "fat-clearing enzymes peak about 10 hours after exercise," says Tom Thomas, one of the study's lead researchers. So, the theory is that if you're exercising throughout the day, you'll always have fat-clearing enzymes in your bloodstream.
Your Goal: White TeethThe Strategy: Get a Peroxide Treatment"Whitening your teeth is one of the fastest and most affordable beauty fixes," says Jeffrey Golub-Evans, D.D.S., a cosmetic dentist in New York City who is a proponent of drugstore-available Crest Whitestrips, peroxide-laced adhesives you put on your teeth for 30 minutes, twice a day, for two weeks. As for whitening toothpastes, Dr. Golub-Evans is less enthusiastic, since, with the exception of Rembrandt's, most don't contain peroxide. They also don't remain on your teeth long enough to be effective. A better option: Dip a toothpick in whitening gel (purchased from your dentist or the drugstore) and use it to manually remove coffee, wine, and tea stains that accumulate between teeth.

Your Goal: Healthy, Shiny HairThe Strategy: Cut Back on Heat-Styling"Heat-styling is one of the worst offenders to hair, causing it to weaken and break," explains Dianna Kenneally, a senior
scientist with Physique. As if that weren't enough, hair that's in bad condition is also less apt to hold on to color — and doesn't retain its style, either. Kenneally suggests going unplugged all weekend (you can still blow-dry during the week) and giving yourself a deep-conditioning treatment instead.Try: Bollei Blends Antidote, Physique Deep Hydrating Conditioner, Bumble and Bumble Treatment Damage Therapy Maskhttp://www.marieclaire.com/
