Going Natural For The African-American Woman

If you have dry, peeling cuticles, try soaking your fingertips in warm milk. Soak your nails for about 10 minutes, twice a week for best results. Afterward, apply nail oil or some type of nail strengthener to your nails. According to most professionals, daily hair washing is not the best option for any hair type. This will only stimulate oil production and create excess oil. Although, if you do not wash your hair often enough it can be really greasy, which is why it is generally recommended that it should be washed every two days. Don't compare yourself to famous people or movie stars when thinking about beauty. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Keep your self-esteem up and be happy with the body you have. If your nail polish is becoming thick and sticky, consider adding a little nail polish remover to the bottle. You only need to use a very small amount. Shake the bottle thoroughly. Doing this will extend the life of your nail polish. Regular massages will relax you and make you feel great. Massages help promote circulation, tone and remove unwanted toxins from the body. Make it a habit to get a massage from time to time and get these benefits for yourself. Once you apply the lipstick, especially if its a dark shade, you want to put your finger in your mouth, pull the skin out then use your lips to make an "O" shape while sliding your finger around. This prevents lipstick from moving from the insides of your lips to your teeth without disturbing the lipstick that is on your lips. Vitamin E is a helpful natural remedy to have on hand. There are so many things you can use it for. It can help keep your skin healthy and soft. It helps keep your cuticles nice and smooth, too.
