My sister gifted me a book I have come obsessed with, Yes! I carry it with me everywhere I go! ASK: The 100 Most Asked Questions About Beauty by Bella Blissett. We found it at TJ MAXX for just $5.99 I have learned so much from this little book. Its tips include anything about beauty and fashion as well as diet and healthy living. I want to share with you some of its’ content, I will be posting 12 new questions every week. Remember that you can submit beauty, fashion or in general questions, simply click on the CONTACT tab above.
You can purchase the book here.
“What is the best way to hide my raw nose when I have a cold?” Find a moisturizing concealer that contains ingredients such as vitamin E, jojoba oil, and beeswax to replenish the dry skin. A slightly blue undertone will also balance out the redness.
“What are the key ingredients I should look for in an anti-aging product?” Dermatologists recommend co-enzyme Q10, carotenoids, vitamins C and E, flavonoids, idebenone, ferulic acid, and lycopene. Hyaluronic acid is another wonder ingredient that skincare experts swear by.
“How can I prevent tooth decay?” Try finishing meals with a small amount of cheese. It is thought to protect tooth enamel by reducing acidity levels in the mouth.
“Do I need to swap shampoo with the seasons?” In the summer your hair has to defend itself against ore enemies, such as the sun, sea salt excess sweat, and chlorine, so switching to a gentler shampoo can help to keep your hair soft without stripping it of its natural oils.
“Should you apply concealer over or under foundation?” If you are trying to cover a blemish the foundation comes first and concealer is dabbed on afterward. If you are covering dark under eye circles use concealer only and keep foundation away from this delicate area.
“What are the best products to use with hair extensions?”Hair extensions require dedicated upkeep to remain looking luscious. Conditioning products containing a cocktail of vitamins and proteins will revitalize and preserve, while shampoo containing Pro-vitamin B5 will cleanse and nourish hair and protect bonds. It is important to consult your hair stylist on the compatibility of any products you are not sure of, because some products can loosen braids.
“Is there a natural way to treat cracked lips?” Get kissable lips by mixing a teaspoon of moisturizing honey with a pinch of sugar to exfoliate the dead skin away. Rub gently over the skin’s surface with a toothbrush.
“Lipstick: One coat or two?” Two (and a bit). Apply your first coat, blot on a tissue then dust loose powder over your lips before applying the second coat.
“When’s the best time to pluck my eyebrows?” After a bath or shower when the skin is more supple and the poses have been opened. Avoid plucking during the week before your period when your skin is more sensitive.
“How can I make my perfume last longer?” Fragrances tend to evaporate more quickly from the surface of dry skin so apply a layer of moisturizer before your scent to keep it there for longer.
“Is it okay to shave with soap?” Soap usually has a drying effect on the skin, so does not act as a good lubricant when shaving. Choose foams and gels that contain cooling ingredients such as aloe vera to soothe, rather than irritate the skin.
“Can I recreate salon treatments at home?” The latest gadgets allow you to get the treatment without the price tag. Tools such as the Roc Renew Microdermabrasion System come with a grainy scrub and a battery-operated applicator to give salon-like exfoliation
