I use Queen Helene Mint Julep mask every week. I used to have really dry and sensitive skin. The plus side was no zits. My skin has changed over the years, and now I’ll get zits in the tzone if i’m not careful. I use the mask to keep my skin just as smooth as it used to be!

in the winter, it seems i have a runny nose every other week. to avoid drying out the skin around my nose and prevent it from peeling, i use a tube of chapstick and put it on and around my nose. it doesn’t show nor does it look oily. just make sure you mark it so you don’t use it on your lips!

I make a homemade face mask using turmeric and ground almonds–it never fails to make my skin soft and glow-y.

When I don’t have the time to wash, blow dry/straighten my hair, I wash just the top 1/3 layer of my hair. Starting from above my ears, I draw my fingers up and around till they meet. This captures the hair I wash in the sink. The rest of my hair I pull back in a low ponytail so that it doesn’t get wet.

When it’s time to fatten up your lashes, close your eyes and with a powder brush lightly dust your eyelashes with loose powder (mineral veils work great for this). Apply a coat of mascara on top and then just blend in any excess powder below your lashes. Voila! Vampy eyelashes without the undereye smears.

Every few days in the shower, I take one of those body buffer things, put body wash in it and then exfoliate the heck out of my body. It’s the only thing that helps me get a close shave and when I’m done I can sorta see how much dead skin I get off. That sounds horribly gross but it makes my skin soft =)

pump up your ends if you don’t have time for a cut by rubbing baby oil in your hair before showering, then shampoo, condition, shampoo, condition. And blowdry afterwards.
