10 Quick Beauty Tips



These are 10 quick beauty tips that I have heard about and thought I will share them with you. Some are DIY beauty tips that you can easily do at home with items that you will mostly likely have lying around.

1. Cheap way to exfoliate lips

If you have no lip scrub simply just put Vaseline on your lips and use an old toothbrush in circular movements around your lips, this will get rid of all your dry skin and your lips will end up feeling soft.

2. A simple way to keep your feet soft
Wash your feet first with warm water, then apply moisturiser all over your feet and cover them with socks. Sleep with your socks on overnight and remove them in the morning, you feet will be feeling soft and smooth. 

3. Reducing spot redness
Dry out your spots with a dab of toothpaste and leave it on till the toothpaste dries; this will reduce redness and the spot itself. 

4. Reduce getting spots
Drinking lots of water helps to reduce you getting spots as it hydrates you, your skin and stops it becoming dry and flaky. Also try not to touch your face with your fingers much because it can build up oils and a breakout of spots can occur. 

5. No nail polish remover!?
If you have run out of nail polish remover simply just apply a clear top coat to your nails and quickly remove with a cotton ball.

6. Where to apply perfume
Spray your perfume at the base of your neck, your inner elbows, your inner wrists, behind your ears and behind ears or hair, this will make the smell of your perfume last longer. 

7. Got crumbly eyeliner!?
If when applying your eyeliner and it crumbles, simply stick it in the freezer for about to 10-15 minutes. This should then make it easily glide along your lash line. 

8. Get curlier eyelashes
To get curlier eyelashes, heat up your lash curler with your hair dryer for around 8 seconds before curling them. 

9. Ran out of make-up remover!?
Simply just use body lotion to remove make-up and it tends to work well on tough mascara. 

10. How to clean make-up brushes
Ideally you should clean your make-up brushes once a week as bacteria and dirt build up on your brushes. Give them some love and clean them so you won't end up with clogged pores and spot breakouts. There are 6 easy steps to do:
1) Rinse the brush bristles under warm water.
2) Fill the bowl with warm water and a dollop of shampoo and swirl the brush tips in the water.
3) Swirl your make-up brush on the palm of your hand, to build up a lather. This will help to get to the hard to reach dirt.
4) Rinse brush tip under running water till all the shampoo has been washed off.
5) Towel dry the brushes by patting them with the towel.
6) Then lay the brushes on the towell so they can fully dry, this will take a few hours.

Introduction

Hiya lovelies, 

welcome to my blog, I have started up this blog so I can share with you fashion and beauty tips that I will come across and hope that they will be of some help to you. I've been wanting to set up a fashion blog for a while and have have followed many other fashion bloggers on Instagram and twitter and decided that this definately what I would love to do in my spare time. 


I love clothes, jewellery and make-up just as much as any other girl and will take quite a time to find and pick out what I want to wear each day and how to do my make-up because every girl wants to feel beautiful and feel amazing about themselves, especially when finding the perfect outfit that makes you feel like this.


I hope to post as much as possible on my blog and many fashion inspirations on my Instagram (chantzlouise) and even on my twitter (chantzlouisexo). I would love to hear feedback from you guys about my blog to help me improve it and would love to hear what you would like me to feature on my blog too, I will leave my contact information in the contact section so you guys can get hold of me. Thank you for reading.
