Everyone wants to look gorgeous and attractive every day, but only a few are born with that kind of natural beauty. Others have to spend a lot of time and effort on their makeup, skincare and hair care routines in order to look beautiful. But what they don’t realize is that it’s easy to always look your best, with just a handful of solid beauty tricks up your sleeve.
Here are the top five beauty tips that will change your life forever:
Whiten your teeth with turmeric
In order to achieve a sparkling white smile, all you really need is a tablespoon of coconut oil and a teaspoon of turmeric. Mix these ingredients together in a bowl until it becomes a paste, and then, using a toothbrush, brush your teeth just like you normally would. Much like baking soda, turmeric has an abrasive texture, so all of the stains should lift right off of your teeth. Bear in mind that you may need to rinse your mouth several times in order to get rid of any residual yellow pigment left from the turmeric.
Opt for natural skincare products
Swap out your regular beauty products with natural skincare which isn’t made with harmful chemicals and which is very delicate and gentle on the skin. Unlike other skincare products, natural cosmetic products won’t cause any irritation or damage and they will provide your skin with all the nutrients it needs. Apart from properly nourishing the skin, natural skincare products are also non-comedogenic and they don’t age the skin, making them the perfect option for maintaining a glowing and radiant complexion.
Fix your under-eye circles with parsley
In order to get rid of the dark under-eye circles, all you need is a bowl and some fresh chopped parsley. First, grind the parsley leaves with a spoon until all of the juices are released, and then add a tablespoon of hot water or yoghurt into the mixture. Once the concoction has cooled down, dip a couple of makeup pads into the juice, put them on each eye and let them sit for ten minutes. If you do this twice a week, within a month you will notice a significant change.
Make your eyelashes thicker with baby powder
If you want to make your eyelashes look luscious, start by applying mascara, as you normally would, then dip a Q-tip into baby powder and swipe it all over your lashes. After you have covered them with powder, add one more coat of mascara for extra thickness and length. If you happen to smudge the mascara while applying, never use your finger to clean it up, as that can lead to wrinkles and under-eye sagging. Instead, use a Q-tip that’s been dipped into a makeup remover and gently wipe away the smudge.
Protect your hair with mayonnaise
While it may not seem like the most appealing tip, putting mayonnaise on the bottom half of your hair before taking a shower is one of the best ways to keep it healthy and shiny. When you do this, the mid-lengths and the ends of your hair are protected when shampooing, which means that the soap can’t strip your hair of its natural oils and moisture and dry it out. Just make sure to rinse thoroughly whenever you do this and you will have beautiful locks in no time.
Every beauty routine is constantly evolving, but there are certain beauty tips you can make use of for years to come. With a few helpful tricks like these up your sleeve, it’s a breeze to look beautiful and radiant every day.
