nail care
The first thing we can all do in having good-looking hands is to keep them clean by washing regularly. It’s amazing how many people (guys especially, but some women and girls too) walk around with grubby non manicured finger nails. Get a nail brush and put it by the sink, so it’s convenient whenever you wash your hands. An added plus of a nail brushing your fingers is the way it feels: those soft bristles and the luxurious soapy lather take your hands on a daily very mini spa vacation. Always follow up with a nice hand cream or lotion to keep your hands moisturized

Shape your brow
Threading Eyebrow threading is more precise than other forms of epilating for shaping them. If you are one of those people who endlessly dote over smallest of details and cannot handle anything less than perfect, grooming and shaping your eyebrows must be an ordeal. The simple solution is going for threading because that can be the only way closest to what you want. So whether you want the foxy thin lined eyebrows or the natural yet clean ones you can get them with threading. Eyebrow threading involves the beautician to make a loop with a thread and twirl it a couple of times. The loop with the twirls at the center and the sides held by the beautician when applied with light pressure on the area of unwanted hair growth removes hair efficiently. The best thing about threading is that hair can be removed from the exact spot where unwanted hairs are and any possible desired shape can be achieved. Eyebrows threading is done in usually every 2-3 weeks.

Makeup
Use toner on your face first and apply moisturiser, to enable better blending of make-up. For a lighter much more natural look, after loading blush onto brush, tap end of brush lightly against your hand to remove excess, then apply. Foundation over the eye lids provides a smooth matt base and it helps stop creasing. Go for a "no-colour" eye shadow as a base, like a soft creamy shade "highligher" and place this on lids up to brow bone. For most eye shapes the dark colours needs to be used on outer eye area and/or in crease. The most popular beauty product world over, is lipstick. To create that perfect pair of lips you should start by lining with a neutral colored pencil following your natural lip line. Using a lip brush fill in with lip color of your choice. Use your lip brush to blend the two so that there are no harsh edges. The secret of creating the picture-perfect lips lies in the choice of color and correct application. TIP: If you are not fortunate to have full lips, wear the lightest, frostiest lipsticks you can find. They will cause your lips to look fuller. Lip gloss is now back with a bang. You can pretty much never go wrong with a lipgloss. I`t neutral, yet looks nice when you don`t want to give the impression of wearing alot of make-up. *For a day event, cleanse, moisturize, translucent powder, soft eye-liner, gloss & you`re good to go!

Skin Care
lf you aren`t already using a daily moisturizer or foundation with an SPF of 15 or higher, start slathering it on. Try our Doucer de vie SPF 15 moisturizer from Guinot. The eyes have it - thinner, more-sensitive skin, that is. While regular facial moisturizers can keep the skin supple, eye creams usually contain lower concentrations of active ingredients and fewer preservatives, so they are gentler. Try our eye mask gel containing Horse Chestnut which remarkably reduces puffiness, dark shadows and tired eyes with water retention. Up to 50 per cent of women over age 25 have adult acne. Hormones are the problem. When levels of androgens, the testosterone-like chemicals responsible for acne, rise - just before your period, for instance, or whenever you are particularly stressed your oil glands go into overdrive, causing clogged pores and sometimes leading to acne flare-ups. To target breakouts without over drying your skin, wash your face twice daily with a gentle no soap lotion. Try our Microbiotic Mousse cleanser, toner and Matizone (moisturizer) which is non-comedogenic (non-pore-clogging) with moisture-attracting humectants.
