Imagine what you would do if you knew miracle working beauty secrets. And if you had the self confidence that comes with being beautiful.
Now before you laugh and say you'll never be beautiful, listen up.
I know where you're coming from! At one time I didn't know any beauty secrets. Before I learned any beauty secrets I was plain, even bordering on ugly.
I had acne, chapped lips, weight issues, wardrobe disasters, and not so white teeth. But thats all become past with the 5 beauty secrets that have changed my life.
But I pulled through them all and learned some valuable beauty secrets as a result.
Now people are always commenting to me on my beauty. Saying I should be a model, etc.... And guys are no longer even an issue! I don't have to look for them, they come to me.
It turns out the best beauty secrets are those that are won by personal knowledge and experience. Not just by reading general tips in magazines.
So by experimentation over the years and by perseverance, I've found out what really works and what doesn't.
Beauty Secret 1
Unchap/beautify your lips with this trick.
For soft, beautifully kissable lips, you need the following: a washcloth (I'm not kidding either), warm water, and your favorite brand of lip balm.
First you apply a coat of lip balm. Then wet one corner of the washcloth, put the warm wet corner of the washcloth between your lips, press them together and hold for 5 seconds.
Then gently massage any remaining lip balm from lips with the wet corner of washcloth, and dry lips with a corner thats dry.
Apply lip balm again to keep your lips chap free. You may also apply lipstick or lip gloss on over the layer of lip balm.
I learned this was the best way to keep lips from chapping, after going through too many winters with dried, and chapped lips.
Beauty Secret 2
Clear your acne, and get beautiful skin.
For clear glowing skin, a little home remedy does wonders for my complexion, as it should with yours too.
Steam your face for 20 minutes every night after washing it, then every other night after steaming your face, massage a half teaspoon castor oil over face.
Leave it on at night while you sleep and wash off immediately upon waking. Steam face for twenty more minutes in the morning after washing. When you finish steaming your face splash your face with cool water and dry it.
If your skin starts to show any signs of a pimple forming. Take one night off from steaming and applying castor oil and apply Benzoyl Peroxide over face.
Take the next night off also from the steaming, castor oil, and benzoyl peroxide. Continue facial regimen with steaming and castor oil the following night.
This beauty secret will moisturize your face at the same time it will help clear up acne and pimples. But only if you work at it consistently.
Beauty Secret 3
Good taste in clothes.
When shopping for clothes try to stay away from really big prints, or weird mixes of colors (eg. green, pink and blue flowers combined on a white background, for instance).
Clothes like these just scream "I'm color blind!" And if you in fact, actually are color blind, always shop with a friend who isn't and has good taste in clothes.
Buy basic colors. Solid reds, pinks, blues, whites, and blacks. Or things with small tasteful prints and designs.
Then mix and match each basic color with a corresponding one (blue goes well with white, pink, and sometimes with red, and different shades of the same color almost always go well together).
Put these beauty secrets to use, and start seeing the benefits today. Be sure to read Part 2 of this article, which contains the last 2 beauty secrets.
In Part 2 I'll teach you the beauty secrets for whitening your smile without draining your bank account. And how to use clothes to your advantage by hiding figure flaws and defects.
