The Face



The Face

The one piece of advice my mom always gave me was : "Spend money on your face its the first thing people see". I'm not sure if I have her to thank for my vain mind set. I pride myself on the fact that I look 22 and not 32..... call it good genes or an obsession with aging. The one thing I can not live without is my daily routine of putting on my face and nightly routine of taking it off.
Here are a few beauty products that I love.

1. Fake Eyelashes- MAC lashes #7 are my favorite but getting to the MAC counter isn't always convenient. So I usually pick up a pair of Ardell lashes ($4.00) at Bed Bath and Beyond. I tend to stick to #109, #136 or the Demi Pixies.

2. Lipstick- I've been sticking to a neutral eye and wearing a bold lip. Here's a little tip: use a toothbrush to scrub any dead skin off your lip before applying.

3. Sunblock- even though most liquid foundations come with SPF, I always make it a point to apply Aveeno Sunblock lotion. I use it all year round. Remember, your skin isn't something you can change.

4. Eyeliner- I read somewhere that men are attracted to lined lids. It enhances your feminine sensuality.

5.CeraVe- Always, Always, Always clean and moisturize your face!

6. Green Tea - Green tea has always been know to help reduce swelling and discoloration under the eyes. I usually make the tea and pour it into an ice cube tray. Whenever I feel like my eyes are in need of some TLC, I pop out 2 green tea ice cubes and hold them on my eyes for about 5 minutes. I also rub the ice cubes all over my face when I feel like I wake up with a puffy  face.
