Easy & Cheap Beauty Hacks from LUXE

7009952445 • Nov 16, 2018

1. Clean your phone screen. A great way to avoid blemishes is to routinely clean the makeup and bacteria off of your phone screens. It is easy to spread harmful skin bacteria from the surface of your phone. Washing your hands goes a long way to avoid skin contamination as well.

2. Make an exfoliating scrub at home. Place dry peeled skins of oranges, lemons, and limes in the sun. Finely grate the white inside rind of the peel and then mix it with any facial cleanser or even add it to fine facial oils. Using the scrub would exfoliate the skin, treat it with vitamin C, and prevent over-drying of the skin because of the fruit oils.

3. Combat enlarged pores of the T-Zone with over-the-counter hydrogen peroxide. The bacteria in pores create inflammation that increases pore size, and this leads to blackheads and whiteheads. These bacteria can’t survive in high oxygen environments. 3 percent hydrogen peroxide is available over the counter quite inexpensively. Treating just the T-Zone at night kills the bacteria, reduces pore size, and blemishes.

4. Avoid fake nails. They harbor tons of bacteria that are easily transferred to the face when you touch your face. Instead, focus on growing your own nails with the help of oral vitamin C and any good quality hair, skin, and nails vitamin.

5. Wash pillow cases routinely. This is especially important for teenagers. Going to sleep at night on clean pillow cases after washing your face goes a long way to reducing bacterial burden and allows blemishes to heal.”

6. Use back tea bags to reduce puffiness around the eyes. Wet them in ice water and lay them onto the eyes to soothe. The caffeine in the black tea causes blood vessels to constrict, reducing edema or swelling in the delicate, thin eyelid tissues.

7. Add baking soda to toothpaste for an extra boost of whitener. Instead of bleaching your teeth, baking soda actually breaks the molecules that stain the teeth. It is less irritating to your gums as well, and way cheaper than teeth whitening strips.

8. Eat the rainbow. A white bread-based diet does not for clear skin make. Make sure your diet is packed with brightly-colored fruits and vegetables as they are high in antioxidants which give glow to the skin. Specifically, research suggests that pigments called carotenoids—found in foods like carrots, spinach and other leafy greens, and tomatoes—have been linked to good complexions. Adding fish oil to your diet also improves skin compliance and radiance.

9. Avoid hot showers. As disappointing as it may be, hot showers remove too much of your natural oils and brings blood circulation to your skin, creating inflammatory reactions that result in rashes and aggravate those with eczema or dry patches.

10. Be sure you know what you're actually looking for in treatments. You may want a brow lift when all you need is a brow wax. Other brow techniques like brow tinting can change how your eyebrows frame the eyes, improving looks.
