My Skin Care Beauty Secrets....Come Take a Peek.

 As you all know, and If you don't know I love and adore doing makeup. However, first and foremost I take good care of my skin. Before you can think about apply/wearing makeup, your skin should be in it's best condition.  The better looking your skin, the less makeup you will need which in turn will give you a more natural and flawless look. So Here I am giving you ladies some of my secrets on how I take care of my skin:)  and If you'd like you are more than welcomed to try them.  Should Know: I do love hearing about how other's take care of thier skin/beauty regime.....you can share those as well.   LETS TAKE A PEEK!!!


1. Once a year I do visit the Dermatologist. I think it's very important, especially as you age. Who wants their skin lookin a mess. Not I!  that is why I am faithful to my doctor....... he gives me the best advice. But If you can't afford to visit one, There are techniques you can do at home....items you have right in your own medicine cabinet. Here are some of mine:

2. I use Neosporin. I apply it to my face all the time, especially at night before I go to sleep. Neosporin has done alot for me. lol   Another alternative is Bacitracin, it has alot of vitamins in it, just like neosporin and heals the skin perfectly.

3. I know EVERY says WATER and yes it's true we all need it. However, I hardly drink water. Actually, I just started getting into the habit of drinking water and for me my normal water intake is 2 glasses a day. 1 in the morning and 1 before I go to bed.  I still had to share this because my dermatologist advises me to drink plenty of it, so therEfore Im sharing it with you:)  Im just now starting to SEE the results of what drinking water can do. I know it's good for you but to actually see it is a different story.

4.  Cocoa Butter is one of my Favorites, I apply it everywhere. you can't go wrong! 

5. I give myself facials.  I boil water in a pot on the stove then I stand over the pot so that way the steam can open up my pores. I then wash my face with my favorite face wash, put a face mask/scrub on and then let it sit for how ever long I want it to stay on for, and then I rinse it off. The result:  Clean and Clear skin

6. Another MUST HAVE!! Ladies it does the skin wonders! RETIN A.  My dermatologist prescribes it for me and I will not ever part from it!  I started using it when I was in my 20's and I still use. you can get it in medications over the counter that are reasonably priced. for example: Oil or Olay, but if you want the good stuff.....visit the dermatologist.

I hope some of these tips are helpful in your quest for flawless skin. and If you have any questions contact me and I'll gladly answer them.:)
