Green is the new black ... Happy Earth Day!

There are many beauty recipes you can mix up with non-toxic ingredients that you probably have sitting at home in your kitchen.
Here is one that can help with getting rid of blackheads.
Make a thick paste of baking soda with a little bit of water.
Pat on your skin for about 10 minutes and rinse off.
You might find using this several times a week will help control acne.

You can also use baking soda as a deodorant by patting the powder underneath your arms with a dry washcloth.
Very little is needed to form an invisible layer of protection.

Overdone, Underdone or Just RIght.

Don't try too hard to achieve perfection in your photos.

A softer look is always better and more approachable. 

Let your hair fall out a little from a messy updo.

Don't overdo your make up because it can be incredibly aging.

Use a luminizing tinted moisturizer instead of cakey foundation.

Overdone anything just looks overdone ... 

suntans, plastic surgery, hair color, posing, makeup.

 Looks change but beauty lasts so RELAX and let it shine through!

Well-Lubed Hair

No time to wash your hair? Try dusting some translucent (colorless) powder onto your roots where the oil begins with a fluffy brush or sprinkle talcum "baby" powder on your fingers and massage through your hair as needed. 

The powder should absorb the extra oil .... No one will know you pulled an all nighter!
