3 Medicine Chest Beauty Tips
When you think of beauty tips and tricks, your bathroom medicine cabinet is probably the least likely place you look. You will be surprised at what you find in there. There are so many spa type treatments right in your own bathroom.
Look at your complexion, for example. Does a gigantic pimple pop up every time you have a really big date? If this happens to you, your skin can be acting to stress. You can visit a spa for an emergency facial. But, those can cost well over 100 dollars. They also use up most of your day. Alternatively, you can put a dab of hydrocortisone cream (for rashes and poison ivy) to the pimple. Hit it in the morning, and it should fade dramatically by nightfall.
Breakouts not a big deal for you? You shouldn’t worry because there are also medicine cabinet beauty tips for you. Try opening up some vitamin E oil capsules. Many people take these supplements to help with cystic fibrosis, Alzheimer’s disease and sickle cell anemia. For a scar and wrinkle treatment that works right away, break open a vitamin E capsule. Vitamin E makes a wonderful topical healer which is why most all anti-aging creams contain it.
Is a gentle toner what you are looking for? Use distilled witch hazel. Most of the time, expensive over-the-counter toners can really dry out your skin and may even cause redness. Diluted witch hazel works great when applied with a cotton ball. Witch hazel is most often used for hemorrhoids or even laryngitis. Amazingly, it can also be used as a great beauty treatment.
Naturally, you should test these treatments out before using them. If you are going to put a new substance on your face, you should be careful. Put a tiny dab on the inside of your wrist or elbow. You need to leave it there for about 24 hours. Everything will be good to go if there isn’t any redness or irritation.
Always stay on the lookout for beauty bargains in surprising places. The contents of your kitchen and bathroom could be very surprising. With these beauty tips, you can give yourself a wonderful spa experience in your own home.
