Steps to Achieving the Beauty You Deserve

By Sonia McNair


Physical beauty is basically defined as possessing a quality that makes you appealing. Different people have different definitions of what a beautiful person is supposed to look like. While it differs from person to person, there are some basic steps that anyone can follow that will help them look their best.

Select a good foundation by trying several different formulas. Many makeup counters will provide you with samples to try, which is a great way to test-drive makeup without wasting your money. If your skin is dry, you might want to stick with cream or liquid varieties. If you have greasy skin, on the other hand, oil-free powdered formulas, especially mineral foundations, are a good bet. Test colors along your jawbone for the best match.

Mascara and eyeliner in black and brown are a necessity for accentuating your eyes. Although many people only use black mascara, brown mascara will actually make you look younger. Brown eyeliner is less dramatic, making it perfect for daytime use. For a fun evening out, use several coats of black mascara to lengthen and thicken your lashes. Black eyeliner can be applied in a thin line for a subtle enhancement or thickly for a dramatic look. For a party look, consider using your black eyeliner to form dramatic cat eyes.

Petroleum jelly can do wonders for your face. It helps moisturize your face when applied immediately after washing and patting dry your face, which can help reduce dry skin, wrinkles, and other such unsightly flaws.

Want shiny hair? Try a beer treatment. Take a can of beer and pour it over your hair, working it around until the hair is soaked through. Wrap your hair in a towel and wait for 30 minutes to an hour. Jump in the shower and wash hair as normal. This low-cost treatment can be done weekly and will make your hair shiny and glossy. Give it a try!

Your hair is also part of who you are and is beautiful in its own right. Work with the hair you have instead of working against it. By working with your hair, you will have a much easier time of getting it to do what you want it to. Your hair is just as unique as your face, and you need to learn how to appreciate it and be confident with what you were given.

Some people have a problem with dry skin while others struggle with too much oil. Whatever skin type you have, adjust your skin routine to correct the problem. It is very important to always remove all your makeup every night before going to bed so your skin can breath and rejuvenate itself while you sleep.

An essential step to getting that great hair you've always dreamed of is to keep it moisturized. In order to keep your hair healthy, you will need a few good conditioning products. First and foremost, your hair will greatly benefit from a quality daily conditioner. As the name states, use this conditioner daily. The second conditioning product that will make your hair smooth and shiny is a deep-conditioner. Depending on your hair type, a deep-conditioner can be used once a month for normal hair to once a week for dry and damaged hair. The last product you may want to invest in is a leave-in conditioner, which can help prevent dry and frizzy hair.

You should invest in a small eye shadow pallet with built in eyeliner in your various shades. This will put your eye products in the palm of your hand and again reduce the clutter in your make-up bag.

Beauty is something that has been valued by people for generations. Being as beautiful as you have always dreamed of is much simpler than you think. Once you equip yourself with all of the correct information, you will be on the right path. The article above will help you become your best without having to put in a whole lot of effort.
