Beauty Tips| Make the Hair Color Last

          




The Problem:

 Chlorinated water, iron, and minerals from inside your water pipes can tint blonde hair to green.

          What to use:

Use a showerhead attachment like Resc-Hue Water Purification System ($120 at sephora.com) to filter unwanted chemicals in the water, and deep treat once a week to keep blonde locks hydrated. TRY Marc Anthony Advanced Color Protect Anti-Aging Night Repair ($10 at Ulta)

                                

                                                    


                                                




                                                   
                                                     
The Problem:

    Over time, brown hair dye oxidizes on your strands, resulting in an orangey, rust-colored tone.

  What to use:

Wash hair with tepid water hot opens the cuticle and lets color seep out. Apply a nonpermanent dye in a cool tone on top of the color you have permanent color once a month to neutralize brassiness. Try GarnierbaShine Color Crème Medium Ash Brown ($8, at drugstore)

                                                   









The Problem:

    Red dye fades faster than other hue; the color    particles are the largest and escape the hair shaft more easily.

                                                 What to use:

Try to keep shampooing to a minimum to hold on to precious pigment. Once a week, twice if you shampoo every day, lather up with a color depositing shampoo. TRY Bumble and Bumble Color Support True Red Shampoo ($23, Bumbleandbumble.com)

Natural Beauty Tips

Sleeping on your back will prevent many wrinkles and breakouts on your face, and even wrinkles in your cleavage area.

• Wearing clothes that are tight make you look heavier. Even a slim girl can bulge over too-tight jeans.
• Put on a coat of clear nail polish before a colored polish to keep your nails from discoloring.
• Being angry really does take away from your beauty now and will result in more wrinkles later.
• Wearing less make-up makes you look younger.
• Vitamins and minerals are needed for health and beauty, but more is not always better. Too much Vitamin A or Selenium can cause hair loss. There is nothing beautiful about losing your hair.
• If you are unhappy with a hair conditioner, it will still make a great "shaving cream" for your legs in the shower.
• When shaving, don't stretch the skin or you could cause ingrown hairs by shaving hair off slightly under the skin.
• Drink plenty of water and get eight hours of sleep every day.
• Tighten bra straps as they stretch out, or buy a new bra when they can't tighten any further, to keep the bosom looking young and perky.
• Instead of shaving over and over, with the hairs coming in darker and thicker each time, try waxing. Waxing to remove hair will result in softer hairs each time and result in permanent hair loss after a few sessions. Aussie Nad's is an all-natural product which is easy to use.
• Sleeping on two or three pillows at a time, or putting a wedge pillow under your regular pillow will help get rid of dark circles under your eyes.
• Exercise while dieting is a must or your skin will be too large (and saggy) for your smaller body. It is much, much tougher to tighten skin after your body shrinks than as you go.
• After washing your face, rinse in cold water (fair-skinned people should use cool instead of cold) to close the pores and tighten the facial muscles.
• If you are out of quick-dry spray for nails, dip your fingers into a bowl of ice-cold water. (Don't to touch the sides of the bowl.) Your nails will dry very quickly.
• Good posture can make you look much slimmer.
• Wearing a low heel will give you better posture than wearing flat shoes.
• Wearing very high heels too often will give you a masculine, muscular calf instead of a feminine, rounded calf.
• Renew thick nail polish by adding a few drops of fingernail polish remover to the bottle.
• Make a nail polish bottle not get stuck closed, put a thin coat of Vaseline inside the lid.
• Clean hair brushes occasionally with dish soap and borax. In a dishpan of very warm water, add 1/2 cup of borax and a few drops of liquid dish soap. Swish the brushes to stir, rinse, and let air dry. Scrub any stubborn spots with a used toothbrush.

Styling SHORTCUTS!

Don't log hours in the mirror! Here's how to look hot in less time.

1.   Wash At Night
Gather damp hair in a high bun before bedtime. You'll wake up in the morning with soft, pretty texture.

2.   Get Mega Volume
Mist hands with hairspray, then massage your scalp. It's an easy (and relaxing) way to set your style.

3.    Focus On The Front
When you're in a rush, just perfect the pieces that frame your face. When these look polished, so do you!
