How to Become a Natural Beauty

How to Become a Natural Beauty step 1
Clear up your skin & even the tone. Becoming a natural beauty is more than just looking pretty wearing little or no makeup, but that's a great place to start. However, you can't skip concealer or foundation unless your skin is clear and even-toned. Use Proactiv and Neutrogena to eliminate zits, toothpaste to dry out any whiteheads, Maderma for any scabs or scars, and Vaseline for any rashes. You can use ice or even Visine for any extra redness on your face. Also use Jergens tinted moisturizer for Face. For all-over good skin, use Jeregns tinted moisturizer for your Body. If your skin is still not clear, see a dermatologist and/or go to a tanning bed. The UV rays will dry out your skin, and if it's a good place and you only tan sparingly, your skin will be damaged in no way.

How to Become a Natural Beauty step 2
Get pretty, healthy hair. Highlights don't look very natural, so if you want to die your hair (which always makes your hair stand out and is a great way to change up your look), die it all one color or get extremely suttle highlights or lowlights. Be sure to ask your hair stylist if your hair is going to look as natural as possible. Don't go from chestnut brown hair to dirty blonde, and make sure the color will look good with your skin tone. As for hair texture, straighten or curl your hair if you'd like, but remember that it doesn't look very natural if everyone knows it's not your natural hair texture. Straightening usually looks more natural than curling, though, and if your natural texture is very unattractive, then go for it.

How to Become a Natural Beauty step 3
Keep good hygeine. This means washing your face & keeping up your skin routine, smelling good by showering daily & using deoderant (perfume is optional), and washing your hair. If your hair ever gets greasy and there's no time to wash your hair, put baby powder in it to soak up the grease. This trick actually works very well.

How to Become a Natural Beauty step 4
Brush your teeth twice a day, to keep your teeth nice and white. If you need to, use Crest Whitestrips. They work amazingly; you will see definite effect even after one strip, and after you use the 2-week kit your smile will have a whole new look.

How to Become a Natural Beauty step 5
Don't wear any obvious makeup. Any form of lipstick or lipgloss or eyeshadow completely ruins your natural beauty look. If you wear any makeup at all, wear foundation (cream is much more natural than powder), mascara (brown, unless your hair is dark & not so much that people can tell that you're wearing it) or blush (but in little amounts).

Exercises to look younger

Like they say, age gracefully. No matter how old you are, would you like to have wrinkles, age spots, uneven and sagging skin? Definitely not! Everyone wants to hide their age as much as possible, and celebrities are more ‘at fault’ in this regard than us. Look at Demi Moore and Cameron Diaz-do they really look their age?

Time was when anti-aging tools were the prerogative of the celebrities. Not so any more! Today anyone can use them! In fact, I will tell you of a simple way to look more beautiful and hide your age.

You already know that exercises can help you lose weight and become fit. However, do you know that there are also special types of ‘facial exercises’, which would help you fight against aging? If you do these facial exercises regularly, you will look several years younger! In this article I will tell you about them.

1. Neck exercise: Tilt your neck backwards and then in a roundabout way. This is a great exercise for quickly shedding the extra pounds from your face; plus your blood circulation would also improve with this exercise. Make sure you do not move your neck in a jerky way or in any awkward position as it can cause neck injuries.

2. Jaw exercise: Open and drop your jaw, then open and close your mouth. Do this at least 20-25 times. This is yet another way to get rid of facial fat, particularly the fat around your chin and neck! For best results, jaw exercises should be done early in the morning.

3. Smiling: Not the half-heated smiles; I mean, smiling with a wide open mouth - smiling like that can help you get rid of facial fat.

4. Other things: While these facial exercises can work on their own, there are other things you need to take care of. For example, you need to watch your diet! If you can survive only on juices then there is nothing like that! Fruit juices are good for your health since many of them are rich in vitamins! A strict fruit-juice diet would help you achieve a glowing skin quite fast.

If you cannot survive on a juice-only diet then you can eat vegetables and fruits. If possible, eat fruits and vegetables in their raw forms; if not, you can boil them! Junk foods are obviously a strict no-no. Sugar and salt intake should obviously be reduced and regulated.

Looking young is not all that hard! You don’t need to buy the latest and greatest cosmetics or go under the knife in order to look beautiful! Just follow the four simple tips I outlined above and relive your youth.

Beauty is...
