Like what exactly? :dunno

Oh.. I know, I get (hell if I know the name) this great softening/silkening/shiny creme from Walmart for like 3 bucks and not only does it make your hair REALLY shiny, it also makes it SO soft. I swear on the days I put it in I can't stop touching my hair. :lol :lol

No Wal Mart here :(
But I also have this cheap lotion with vitamins in it for my hair.
It's really cheap, but it's really good! :)

My hair tends to get frizzy..like I've played with electricity, so that one product is really needed :)

Some of my beauty tips :)

There are only four things you need to make yourself look gorgeous for a night out in my opinion:
1. Freshly washed hair
2. Mascara
3. Bronzer
4. Lip Gloss

You can't go wrong with those four things :)

Also, hair tips:
1. Fresh lemon is great for adding extra shine and volume to your hair.
2. Always blow dry you hair and add a heat protection serum before straighting or curling your hair.
3. Shampoo your hair twice, not once! The first time it removes the excess grease and dirt ect, but the second time is when you really can get the extra shine and smoothness.

Always exfoliate before applying fake tan!

Okay they're obvious, but I hope they helped in some way!

Well I hope I was of some help then!

Also!

In regards to skin...
1. Always wear sun cream outside and I mean ALWAYS :) Esp in Australia with our powerful rays and the damage of the ozone layer, even in Winter you can potentially burn.
2. For sun cream on your face, but an oil free one with a matte base.
3. Put suncream under your make up, allow to dry and set in for about 10 minutes then apply your make up. Always put moisturiser on before suncream.

More hair tips ~
1. Use a styling mouse for extra controlled volume.
2. Lavendar is excellent when washing your hair ~ I use it in a paste. Simply blend lavendar, lemon juice, a little water and some other herbs if you like and place in your hair for about 1/2 an hour. Rinse, then shampoo as normal.
3. For extra shine, cover your hair in oil and cover in a warm towel. Rinse.

Yay! Someone who took my beauty advice ;) you poor soul :lol Just joking :)

I am glad it is shiny!

*now what else to tell everyone*

Oh!

When painting your nails or toe nails, always apply some hand cream and massage into your cuticles first, then paint your nails with a clear acrylic base and allow to dry. then, paint your colour over the top ~ TWICE! and then another coat of clear.

Cover girl came out with a new kick ass lip gloss combo. It's like the best permanent lipstick I've bought yet. OMG, I woke up the next morning and I still had it on! :lol :lol

First you apply the color, don't blot or rub, wait a minute and then apply the clear gloss. It stays on for some obscene amount of time. (I even kiss tested it. Not a lick came off. :lol )

Ali-- You kick ass with your advice! :thanx

Bunnie, do you mean something called Lip Finity (sp?), we have something like that here as well.
It's by Max Factor (thus expensive :lol ), but it's supposed to be really good!

Oi, Ali! I like that lavender paste thing you suggested up there! Must try it out some time... Also, besides lemon jiuce, did you know that vinegar (the fruit one, and mixed with water, of course) makes your hair really shiny as well? It just smells kind of... yeah... I'm thinking salad. :lol

:flowers ~ hehe thank you :) And no problem!

Lip Finity ~ OMG that stuff is incredible! It never goes I swear! It lives up to the whole "permanancy factor", that's for sure! I tried it on once, and it just wouldn't come off :lol

I found it dried my lips out a bit though.

More tips!

In regards to concealer... this is pretty much a gimme, but always make sure you know your skin type before buying one, and always make sure it suits yours. I have made this mistake in the past ~ buying a matte base, when I really didn't need it.

Make sure if you're combination ~ ie: oily and dry, you buy one to suit that type, or if you're dry skined, but one with extra moisturiser. Oily skin doesn't need that.

Also, if you're fair (like me), don't generally head for the palest, as it can often make you look pink. If you're super pale, you may need the palest, but always check!
