So, what is your beauty secret?
For generations, women have passed on beauty tips - from how to get glowing skin to shiny hair – because let’s be honest, beauty products only take you so far.
Everyone has their bag of tricks that they swear by, so we asked the Women24 community to share the love and wisdom by telling us the best beauty advice they have every received.
Here is what they had to say:
1. After you shampoo your hair, switch off the shower, towel dry your hair, THEN apply conditioner or a hair mask. Let it stay on your hair for 10-15 min (avoid applying to the roots) then rinse out- towel drying prevents the water on your hair from diluting that great hair product.
2. Stay out of the sun as much as possible.
3. If you can’t avoid the sun, use a good facial sunscreen every day. Even on those days when the sun isn’t shining.
4. Wash your face with warm water rather than hot water. Then use cold water to close your pores. Once you are done with your facial routine, avoid touching your face.
5. Never go to bed without taking off your make-up and properly cleansing your face.
6. Vaseline and a pair of socks at night mean smooth heels in the morning.
7. Keep your skin hydrated, drink plenty of water.
8. Take care of your skin with a proper routine. You only have one chance to do so. Once your skin is damaged there is no turning back.
9. For all the girls with curly hair, don’t wash it every day and don’t brush it. It's the best way to preserve your ringlets and keep them from getting frizzy.
10. Slather on a thick, nourishing hand cream every night before bed, so that your hands won’t get chapped.
