Posted: Nov 06, 2010 |Comments: 0 |

Ever run to those "beauty" magazines for a quick facial remedy? How about to hydrate those horse tails or get some real shine from your tresses? The real way to get beauty tips is not from magazines, but to go straight to the source: Mothers and Grandmothers. Let's face it, they've got the scoop most of the time. I know that whenver I have a problem (ex. surprise pimple), I go to my mom. Then she gives me some crazy home remedy to try and says that "your grandma used to tell me this too". Then, surprise surprise, it works. Besides that, lets get to the good stuff. Essentially, I'm here to share those great tips that have stopped disasters in their track. Beauty Tips

Before I start sharing tips and you girls just start putting stuff all over your face, you need to figure out what your skin type is so that no natural disasters occur.

Dry Skin: Women who have dry skin will start to experience flaking and feeling that your skin very taut. It will eventually feel rough and you may even see dry patches that are lighter than your skin tone.

Oily Skin: Oily skin may be the worst because it leads to pimples and blackheads. You will notice that your skin is always shiny or feels "greasy". Many dermatologists say that when you have oily skin, it really means your skin is dry. Therefore, your skin produces more oil to hydrate itself. Beauty Tips

Combination Skin: Can you guess what this kind is? Yes! This means you have dry and oily skin at the same time. You may experience dry skin in the morning and as the day progresses, your skin will become oily.


Sensitive Skin: Sensitive skin can be a pain when it comes to beauty tips. Because your skin is sensitive, well, you never know what you can really do. Sensitive skin will react to simple things like lotions or even beauty products.

Facial Remedies:

Dry Skin: Anything with vitamin E is great for your skin. If your skin feels like a reptile's skin, here is a tip for dry skin that is...well grandma tested!

Almond paste: soak almonds in milk overnight. Remove the skin and grind them into a smooth paste without making it watery. Apply to your face and leave it on for five to seven minutes. Rinse off. Feel hydrated and moisturized!

Honey: Get some regular, pure honey and apply it to your face. Wash it off after ten to fifteen minutes. Enjoy moisturized skin. Now you know why the bees guard it with their stingers, huh?

Annoying Acne: Acne occurs at the most random times, and often is a pain. Making sure your skin is not oily is a must. Oily skin causes pimples and blackheads, so here is how to stop that!

Egg Whites: Crack open an egg and separate the egg white from the yolk. Apply the egg whites all over your face. Leave it on for 5-7 minutes or until the egg whites have dried on your face. Rinse off. Experience softer, non-oily skin. The pimple(s) are visibly reduced the very next day! Beauty Tips

Garlic: Garlic embodies some great antibiotic properties, making it an excellent treatment for acne. Peel and mash 8 fresh cloves of garlic and apply it to your face. Leave it on for 15 minutes and rinse off with lukewarm water or washcloth. Poof! Acne gone.

Orange Peel: Oranges are rich in vitamin E and for some reason are fighters against acne. Take the peel of an orange and rub it against your skin. This helps fight acne from coming back! Eat the orange as well!

Lemon Juice: Dilute some lemon juice with water and dab that onto pimples. This will help kill germs, cool inflammation, and improve blood circulation.

Got Blackheads? To loosen and cleanse blackheads, make a paste of oatmeal, honey and eggwhites. Apply to your skin and massage in for 15 minutes. Rinse off and watch those blackheads disappear!

Sensitive Skin: Here are some things you can do to keep your face healthy without worrying about the consequences!
