Hydrogen peroxide removes period stains

Rubbing alcohol and/or hand sanitizer removes nail polish

The amount of water you need to drink= your weight÷2, then that number÷8 so for example 100÷2=50÷8=6.25 so if you weigh 100 pounds you would need at least six 8oz glasses of water per day

Sugar wax>>> here's a recipe: 1 cup of white sugar, 1/4 cup of water, 1/4 cup of lemon juice (lime works too) combine the ingredients in a saucepan and let them boil until golden brown. The easiest way to test the wax is to have a small bowl of ice water and drop a little bit of the wax into it. When the wax is ready, you'll be able to roll it into a soft ball and it will keep its shape. When this consistency is reached, put it in a glass jar (make sure the jar isn't cold otherwise it will crack) and let it cool off for at least an hour. Once cool, apply it in the opposite direction of hair growth and wax awayyyy

Diy cuticle oil: olive oil and vitamin E oil. You could add a drop or two of essential oil if you want. The amount of oil you need depends on your container so for mine it was a tablespoon of olive oil and 1 teaspoon of vitamin E.

Diy dry shampoo: 3 parts cornstarch and 1 part baking soda.

Healthy drink to ease bloating and get in your vitamins and minerals: 1/2 cucumber, a few sticks of celery, kale or another dark green of your choice, lemon juice, turmeric (a little goes a long way) and ginger. Fresh is best but any ginger you have will work. Fill the blender to the max line with water, and blend until liquid. You can strain it if you want, but you don't have to. It doesn't taste great, but in the long run it is worth ittt

Smelling good is such a wonderful thing for so many reasons. First, pick a scent. Or at the very least a top 3 like I have: vanilla, Dior Blooming Bouquet, and Sol De Janeiro '68. I also use the classic scent from Soap and Glory (rose and bergamot). The first and most important thing is to find a good deodorant. Which one works for you depends on your body chemistry, but dove is always a safe bet :). Next, find a good shower routine. Having all of your shower products smell similar will keep the scent lasting longer. And, of course, shower at least every other day. Washing your hair is different bc your hair washing routine depends on your hair type. And of course you must find a body lotion that matches your other shower products.

Last and final tip for today: keep your nails and hands healthy and pretty by moisturizing your hands with hand cream. I like this one by Burts bees, this one from Eucerin, and this one from Dior (pricey I know but it's w o r t h itt).

That's it! Tysm

Skincare Tips 💎 For my minimal babes

My own skincare routine is only a few steps long, and now that I’ve learned so much about the skin, 4 steps is what most of us benefit the most from

Hydrating Cleanser

Serum (vitamin C)

Moisturizer / Lip Balm

Sunscreen

Depending on your current skin health, more can be better but sometimes less is the best.

Additional add-on’s

Retinoid (prescribed, anything else is not stable or strong enough to truly make a difference)

Toner

Face mist

Eye cream

Spot treatment products

Face/Sheet masks

Gentle exfoliate / Lip scrub

Body Balms / Oils

Makeup remover (oil / balm based)

💎 Always apply to your entire face (lips and ears included) , less is more except for sunscreen — more is always best.

💎 Don’t forget your neck, hands and even go further down to the girls

💎 Never apply on a dirty face, and be gentle

💎 Morning and night, always. But reapply sunscreen and moisturize through the day!

💎 Anything above 30€ you’re praying for the brand. Most of what’s developed is essentially the same.

💎 Invest is monthly facials (once or twice us enough)

Have fun and stay soft 🧘🏾‍♀️

[hazeltailofficial]

Hey! Please could you tell me about face masks, what cream should I use after that? Like specifically what would you advise me?

Thanks so much for taking time to answer, I also need the answer as quick as possible but no pressure <3 Enjoy your day :))

I would recommend using a gentle moisturizer after a face mask. I usually use the Cerave PM Facial Moisturizing Lotion (I usually do masks at night so SPF isn't an issue, during the day I would use the AM version). Basically, whatever daily moisturizer you like should work fine.

Ways to save money on skin care 💰💳

Even if you’re just barely familiar with the difference between serums and toners, one thing you’re probably painfully aware of is how incredibly expensive skin care can be. If you’re not careful, even the basics can get expensive; and if you’re like most people, you’ve probably spent a shocking amount of money on skin care throughout your lifetime.

Here are some tips :

Focus on your skin type and what your skin needs.

Expensive skin care products are not necessarily better, instead it’s more Important to buy products that are formulated for your skin type and what it needs. All you need is a cleanser, moisturizer, SPF sunscreen and if necessary a targeted treatment(such as acne or dark spots).

Choose multitasking skin care products.

Buy products that can do more than one thing , such as a moisturizer with sunscreen, exfoliators that doubles as a mask etc….

Buy trial sizes before spending on a new product.

Buying a trial size before spending on the original size can save you from spending unnecessary money because that way you won’t need to experiment with buying different formulas,products and versions. It can be disappointing to buy expensive skin care products and they either don’t agree with your skin, cause a bad skin reaction and you spent unnecessary money.

Make DIY skin care products using natural ingredients.

Natural ingredients are the best options when taking about skin care.Its relatively simple to create clean, non-toxic, and natural beauty products in your own kitchen and you know where every ingredient you put into your concoction is coming from. Here are some natural ingredients you can use (Aloe Vera, Coconut Oil, Honey, Turmeric, Shea Butter, Jojoba Oil, Apple Cider Vinegar, Rose Water, Witch-Hazel). These can be used as facial mask, cleansers, toners, moisturizers etc…

These were just a few of the basics that worked for me.

Stay tuned for more great skin care tips!!!

juno dearest i saw someone send you an ask about skincare so i wanted to join in..

what should i do/use to exfoliate.... i use a scrub gell at the moment but it isn't doing enough

cece dearest! this is a great question bc i feel like exfoliation is one of the most misunderstood steps in skincare. so i’m just gonna go through a few tips before i get to products!

1) you don’t need to exfoliate as much as you probably think! i think that exfoliating feels like the thing that will Scrub Away acne…it’s possible as humans it just feels good to rlly scrub at something to “fix” it. but you’re probably doing more harm than good if you exfoliate a lot! once or twice a week MAX is the best idea for most people.

2) if you’re seeing a lot of dead/flaky skin on your face frequently, it’s probably a moisture issue rather than a need for more exfoliation!! try the moisturizer i mentioned before, or add a hyaluronic acid serum (i like the one from the ordinary) to help this.

3) sugar scrubs, scrub gels, and exfoliating pads are…at best outdated forms of exfoliation. they tend to be overly harsh and abrasive, and they can do more harm than good! i prefer chemical exfoliation, which is gentler on the skin (even tho it sounds…rlly aggressive). i do love a sugar scrub for body exfoliation tho, where the skin is thicker and less fragile.

with that said, my go-to exfoliating product is the ordinary’s AHA 30% + BHA 2% Exfoliating Peeling Solution. this is a chemical exfoliator that you just put a thin layer of on your face (avoiding eyes, mouth, and any open sores or acne spots!!!!!!) and leave for a maximum of 12 minutes.

some tips in using this product:

do NOT use this product without using sunscreen. aha’s and bha’s, like many skincare products, can make your skin more sun sensitive. if you use this, you must wear sunscreen every day (though you should always do this anyways)

this product will probably have an uncomfortable tingle while using. that’s okay and normal! however if it is Bad pain, wash it off immediately. for best safety practices, do a patch test of the product on your wrist before using it to make sure you don’t have a bad reaction.

do not use this product Anywhere that skin is broken. it will hurt like a fucking bitch and it is not good for you

listen when i say only leave it on for 12 minutes max. i usually can only stand 9 or 10 before the tingle bugs me

start by using it once a week, then Maybe move to two eventually, if it feels necessary. you’ll help train your skin to handle it

here is a picture as usual!

also, reminder (for ppl besides u cece lmao) that i am not a doctor. this is advice based on my own experiences and knowledge as a semi-skincare hobbyist, NOT general guidelines for every person ever lmao

advice? 𓆩♡𓆪

i booked a laser hair removal appointment for this week. they're having a summer special, so a session would be $45. i signed up for the 3 session deal. the special was stated to end in june (i booked before it ended but won't be charged until the day of my appointment), but the special is still up on the website. i think the original price of the place i booked with is $60, so after 3 sessions, i'd be charged that much per succeeding session. they have a following of almost 30k on ig and good reviews on google (though not many. they have two locations. the location i booked has almost 50 reviews and a rating of 5 stars from 48 reviews. lowest being 4 stars).

i found another business that offers $45 as their regular pricing and offers a six session package for $225. it's a better deal so im thinking about canceling my original appointment and booking here. they have less than 1k followers on ig. On google, they have 51 reviews and a 4.8 rating. two 1 star reviews, the rest are 5.

they both have a few one star reviews on yelp describing bad experiences and results, but the second place has a higher rating overall.

obviously saving money is a big priority for me, but would i just be cheap doing this? i think $60 is a fair enough price, but if you find the same service for less.... a better deal is a better deal but im scared it'll be a sort of jinx???
