Have you ever looked at someone who doesn't have on a bit of makeup and wondered how that person looks so put together?

Chamomile Tea For Beautiful Skin

Chamomile tea can be used to give your skin a shine that is healthy instead of one that looks fake, such as the one that you might have when you apply a lot of foundation and other products. All you need is one tablespoon of the tea in warm water. After it's sat for about 30 minutes, blend in a small amount of honey. Drink the mixture in the morning for about two weeks to begin seeing a difference in how your skin looks.

Make an oil to put on your eyelashes to make them look longer without wearing mascara. Ingredients in the oil include sesame, almond, and vitamin E. Leave the oil on your lashes overnight for the best results, rinsing in the morning with warm water.

Brittle Hair

When you brush your hair and see split ends, you might think that you have to go get it cut right away. Instead, make a mask using egg yolk and yogurt to put on your hair to bring the life back to it so that it's healthy again.

You'll also add a small amount of avocado oil and coconut oil to the egg yolk to give your hair a healthy shine. Once all of the ingredients are blended together, put it on your hair for about an hour. Rinse with warm water.

Soft Hands

When you use hand cream to make your hands soft, add a small amount of vinegar. Try this regimen before you go to bed for about two weeks. You'll start to see a difference in how your hands look and feel.

Shiny Hair

Put a banana in the blender with a tablespoon of olive oil to make a mask for your hair that can give it a brilliant shine. You'll also add a small amount of honey and yogurt. After you put the paste on your hair, put a cap on to keep your scalp warm as this will yield better results. Wash your hair as normal after about 30 minutes.

Peeling Skin

When your skin is dry and seems to peel all the time, you might feel like clawing it off. Create an aloe juice lotion using aloe juice, boiled water, and alcohol. Apply the mixture to your face once a day, leaving it on your skin for at least 10 minutes before rinsing your face with warm water.

Strong Nails

Avoid using a lot of nail polish and chemicals to get the look on your nails that you desire. Instead, soak your fingers in lemon juice. Use the juice from a fresh lemon instead of the kind you get in a bottle. After soaking your nails for 15 minutes, rinse your hands with warm water.

Blackhead Removal

If you've looked closely in the mirror, you've probably seen a few blackheads on your nose and on other areas of your face. Use some activated charcoal and school glue to make a mask to apply to these areas. Peel the mask off when it's dry, using a toner to close your pores so that more blackheads don't form.

Chapped Lips
