Winter requires special care and switch of the basic moistening creams for the anti-cold ones. But if you haven’t changed everything from summer time, then use at least these easy tips to keep your skin, lips, hair and so on healthy and undamaged. Because sometimes it’s enough to use a couple of interesting ideas that can care about you well.

Here are they:

Lips

If your lips are dry and peel off, rub them with usual Vaseline using a wet piece of fabric or a towel. That will remove the dead cells and prevent them from getting dry again.

The lips color and smoothness usually fades in winter. So you can use a lemon juice to restore the natural lips hue.

And try to control yourself! I mean, if you have that horrible habit to lick the lips. The comments are unnecessary, I suppose.

Around-eyes-skin

Don’t be surprised at people who wear sunglasses in winter. They probably do right. The sunglasses protect the tender skin around the eyes from cold winds and snowfalls.

We frown, laugh, bite our lips and cross the legs having no idea that these habits take away our natural beauty. Let’s discover why it is so and what we should forget about to keep the beauty and youth for longer.

Habit #1. To laugh and frown. No doubts, laugh is a life healer and prolonger. It stimulates the synthesis of endorphins (hormones of happiness). But it causes mimic wrinkles formation. Eyelid skin falls under laugh effect first as there appear crow’s feet, then goes around-lips skin with unattractive nasolabial wrinkles.

The habit to knit the brows leaves deep upright lines between them and frowning leads to horizontal lines on the forehead. The skin around the lips suffers much from the woman’s want to purse the lips. I admit that these facial expressions are reflexes and it’s hard to control them! But possible!

Way out. The only chance to cope with this problem by yourself is your strict control. Start with the simplest task, to smile instead of bursting out laughing, for example. To lose the habit of frowning you can try to undertake the preventive measures: stick to your forehead the thin wet cigarette paper strips for a couple of hours. They will help you to control your facial expression better. You’ll be able to keep up with it by yourself in some time.

Everyone knows the phrase “a man is known by the company he keeps”. But do you know that a woman is known by the make up she has on? It’s interesting to distinguish the make-up patterns and know which character features they indicate.

No make-up

Some women don’t use make up at all! Of course they have their own reasons for that (allergy, skin ailments and etc.). But if the non-make-up decision is taken without any apparent reason, it shows the low self-esteem. Such women are not strong advocates of femininity and rarely watch themselves.

The reasons: laziness, lack of time for me-sweety (it’s widespread among the mothers). A lot depends on the surrounding and woman’s education. Women working in men teams sometimes forget about the “coquette inside of her” and use men deodorants, perfume.

Feminism can also be a reason for non-make-up. The desire to be on the same level with men forces women to reject make-up completely. Their main and basic life position is career, as a rule. Self-absorbed women steer clear of mascara and lipstick either, as they are sure that the whole world is concentrated around them and there is no need to look nice.

I have never thought an obsession with a movie can go so far. I do find Twilight a really good film but copying everything the stars wear or do seems to me crazy. Well, it’s just my opinion, of course.

Anyway what is top trendy thanks to the vampire story is red lipstick. Why red? Because it’s the color of blood!

Not just ordinary Twilight fans love red lips now, but lots of hot celebrities as well, including such names as Agyness Deyn, Mischa Barton, Rachel Weisz, Lily Allen, Leighton Meester and Eva Herzigova.

We often hear that women say they use makeup just for themselves. It means absolutely the same as the phrase ‘I don’t care whether men like me or not’.

Of course both of these phrases have nothing in common with real women’s attitude to men and the makeup. It’s just a little woman’s lies that men should forgive.

Men like makeup but they prefer the one that is not so bright and catchy. They say the best makeup is the one that is not seen. Men like it because of special sexuality.

Just imagine: natural shining skin tone, pure expressive look not affected by eye shadow, natural attractiveness of lips… Sophisticated simplicity is more exciting than clear sex appeal accentuated by red lipstick.

The fact that many women who apply make-up every day and do not know all the tricks of using it is not surprising. We seem to know everything but when it comes to little details it turns out that we fail to deal with them. However, this is no longer a problem as experts are going to share these tips and tricks with you.

1. The first advice is about eye make-up. If there is no volume mascara when you need it urgently it is possible to use loose powder to achieve the effect you want.

All you need to do is to apply some powder over your lashes and then use the mascara you have. The result will amaze you; your eyelashes will look luscious as if you’ve applied volume mascara!

To make your eyes look more open and shining it is advised to apply white nacreous eye shadow to the inner corner of the eye, on the upper and lower eyelids.

2. To improve your make-up before an important evening meeting or a date use a moist paper tissue.

Blot your face with it, this way removing the top layer of dust and your powder mixed during the day.

Then powder your face avoiding applying too many layers as your face might look like a mask.

Stay away from applying additional layers of mascara on your lashes during the day for it will likely to crumble by the evening.
