UNILEVER Beauty Tip of the Day - my favorites!

{CLOSED}
I'm sure you are familiar with the Unilever Beauty Tip of the Day by now...you have seen them on blogs and hopefully have learned some new things. Every day you can click on the below widget (also posted on my sidebar), and learn some wonderful tips from Unilever!





A few of my favorite tips from Unilever (with my own tips added!) are:

Layering lotions - We layer clothing, why not layer lotion also, to make sure our skin is getting what it needs. I have personally tried Vaseline Sheer Infusion and it is wonderful at layering!  
My tip: Mix it up a bit. Vaseline Sheer Infusion is available in three varieties. Grab all three and use a different one each week!

Glowing Skin - even after summer is gone! Now I like this idea. Not only will your skin be protected in the harsh winter months, but you can have a hint of tan. I haven't tried Vaseline's Cocoa Butter Gel Body Oil yet, but after reading this tip, I just may have to go out and buy some!  
My tip: Try to remember to use this every two days or so, to keep your skin glowing. If you make it a habit, then your skin will ALWAYS look and feel amazing - regardless of the season.

Get in bed! - Getting home late from the party and too tired for your normal makeup removal routine? Stash Pond’s Wet Cleansing Towelette in your bedside table for fast and easy makeup removal…you don’t even need water. They have an exclusive cleansing system, with oil- and dirt-trapping fibers, that works like a magnet to remove up to 40 percent more make-up than other leading towelettes to keep you looking your best. One less regret in the morning.  
My tip: Also keep a pack of these in your glove box in your car. I have found that on really hot days, or days when I am not even wearing makeup, it is refreshing to wipe my face with these to cool off!

Stick to five beauty essentials - Tinted moisturizer, a multi-purpose makeup stick for eyes, cheeks and lips, concealer, one tube of mascara and one of Q-tips® cotton swabs four new beautifully designed Vanity Packs help apply your makeup.   
My tip: Q-tips can be used for SO MANY THINGS.  I have found that they are perfect for removing a little lipstick if you have applied too much.  You can do this easily and still keep your lipstick "neat" looking!

I love the vaseline one about putting vaseline on your cuticles to soften them. I do this and I also use vaseline as lipgloss and to soften my chapped lips.

My own beauty tip: Have lotion beside your sink in the kitchen. You wash those dishes and then put some on your hands to stave off the wrinkles and dry skin.

I'm liking the vaseline on the cuticles tip - I'll have to try that one! I use lotion right after I get out of the shower on my cuticles currently.

My tip is Moisturize EVERY day! I've done it for years, and it works.

My beauty tip is to alternate shampoos- one week use one, and the following week use another. This is good for the health of your hair.

The best beauty tip I can give is don't automatically assume the high-priced products are the best.

exercise, rest and vitamins are my tip

aajacques said...

I use non fragrant lotion to take off my eyemakeup and I drink lots of water so my skin is refreshed.

mar said...

My favorite beauty tip is to wash my face with a mild cleanser instead of soap. I then rinse with hot, followed my cold water!

txgiggles45 said...

After washin your hands and towel drying them, rub your finger nails and cuticles downward, pushing the cuticle back. It's gentle on the cuticle but it helps push it back.

My favorite beauty tip is to drink lots of water and get plenty of sleep. I believe these alone make a huge difference in how your complexion looks.

I like the Unilever tip on how changing your part adds volume and makes you hair look fuller.
