There are many simple beauty tips and tricks, which will help you to look great without having to pay lots of money on expensive cosmetic products or on visits to the cosmeticians. Most women are concerned about the way their face looks and that’s only natural, since the face is the first thing that other people notice about you. Well, the best beauty tip you’ll ever get is to stay healthy, exercise and eat well. Beauty tips and tricks won’t help you as much if you have a lot of bad habits, like smoking, eating too many fats and sweets, or not getting enough rest. You can scrub your face with the most sophisticated exfoliating soap and you can use the most expensive facial cream on the market. That’s just not enough – you have to make all the right choices for your body. Not only is what you put on your skin important, but also what you put inside your body.
Supposing you already adopted a healthy life style, here are some beauty tips and tricks that with very little effort and very little money will help you to look flawless. The appearance of the skin on your face and body is very important. Beautiful skin means a beautiful lady. All those facial treatments and creams are pretty expensive. But you can find, inside your house, a lot of products that make great, natural and cheap facial treatments.
If you have oily skin, you can scrub it with some freshly ground coffee. Just put the coffee in some warm water for about 30 seconds. If you use it dry, it might scratch your face. This facial treatment will help you remove the dead skin cells, while the caffeine has a beneficial effect on the skin. For oily skin, you can use a homemade toner out of cucumber and lemon juice, which will remove the excess oil from the skin as it closes your pores. If you have dry skin, you can make a really helpful, soothing facial mask, using a crushed apricot, mixed with a heavy cream. This mask will hydrate and moist your skin, leaving it looking fresh and healthy.
Dry lips can be treated by spreading a thin layer of honey on them. Honey is very useful when it comes about healing dry, irritated skin. You can apply honey on your face, especially during winter, when the skin is damaged by the cold air. These beauty tips and tricks are great because you don’t put all the chemicals from commercial face creams and lotions on your skin.
For beautiful skin on our entire body, olive oil is the right solution. Before you take your shower in the evenings, massage your entire body with good-quality extra virgin olive oil. Don’t worry, once you shower, the soap will take away the olive oil odor and you won’t end up spelling like an Italian restaurant. Olive oil is extremely efficient. It makes your skin silky and smooth, in a way that regular body lotions can’t manage to do. After you apply the olive oil on your entire body, wait for at least 10 minutes before showering. These beauty tips and tricks will help you keep your youth for years to come.

Learn How to Look Great on a Budget
Looking chic and elegant doesn't mean that you have to spend a lot of money in order to do so. You'll find women that can max out their credit cards yet still be a complete mess. Then there are those who shop on sale or at thrift stores and be ready for an impromptu photo shoot. All these women do is have the right look together and make the right choices since they know how to look elegant on a budget.
Anyone who knows what works best on them doesn't need to spend a ton of money. Money that is allotted to the right sort of expenses will be money well spent.
One thing that people notice the most about others is the hair and the face. So it is logical to spend the most you can afford on these two necessary parts of your look. Having a hairstyle that suits you by making your best features stand out plus having skin that is clear and soft through the right toiletries and facials would be all that you need to look good.
One thing that makes a person look messy is to have hair where it isn't wanted. Keep yourself fuzz-free with at-home hair removal. The main points that need to be hairless would be the legs and armpits; the eyebrows in particular should be kept well-groomed. You wouldn't need excess hair on the upper lip or the chin, either. This in turn means that less makeup is needed. The basics – a sheer foundation, a suitable shade of lipstick or gloss, blush and mascara - keep your face looking young and takes no time at all. If you add perfume, shower well before you do and choose a simple scent that both expresses and suits you.
Pay attention to your nails, especially if you usually use your hands to express yourself. Buffing is the best way to go as it won't discolor the nails, it won't chip, and it looks better than an obvious French manicure. Keep your toes clean as well; a clear coat of polish would actually look better than any other color.
If you know what clothes to buy, then you'll be able to really get what you need without needing the latest fashions or having designer labels emblazoned all over yourself. Once the clothes are cut to fit the body properly, are kept well without any faded or worn patches, isn't wrinkled or ripped somewhere, then they'll look good on you.
To start with, classics are the best choice. Then make the clothes your own with the right accessories for it. The basic wardrobe consists of properly fitted blazers or suit jackets for the top and pants and skirts for the bottoms. Jeans that don't pull or wrinkle in unwanted places plus blouses and t-shirts that fit well and suit the character just right round out the wardrobe. If the foundation clothes are dark colors that can allow them to mix and match, then the bright colors can come in with the shirts, bags, scarves, and jewelry.
Again, well chosen, none of these things ought to max out your credit card or clean your wallet. Keep your look fresh by changing the accessories and tops seasonally.
Never ever buy “cute” shoes. Types like these will change in extreme ways every season and will cost you a ton of money. Choose good pumps, pretty sandals, ballerina slippers, and very plain sneakers as your staples.
Neither do your bags have to be expensive. Just because it's a designer bag doesn't mean that it will suit your look.
