Easter – Life, Lipstick, & Glowing Skin

I featured on TV here in sunny Florida…some beauty hacks this time with an Earth 🌏 month twist and money saving too$

Here we go!

Down to the end of your facial potions, body lotions, hair products, bath and shower gel,arthritis gel or toothpaste tube?

Think again there’s still a lot left in that tube!!! Really! I always keep a pair of scissors in my bathroom or studio and you’ll want to do this too.

Simply squeeze the tube and cut it in half all across. What you will have is a few days, a few weeks worth or even longer of product to dive in and still use.

Love a brush from a mascara or brow gel you purchased but didn’t love that mascara or brow gel ?

Save it and rinse it well with soap and water. Reuse the brush to apply a mascara you love or tinted brow gel you like more.

Or to tame those unruly brows.

Broke a makeup compact, face bronzer, powder blush or powder eyeshadow?

Pick up the product off the floor or your makeup bag and savor the rest of the product. DON’T throw it all out. I always keep empty jars on hand in different sizes. Then all you need is to apply them with a makeup brush. Pressed product formulas becomes loose. Still good!

Dropped or broke an Asian facial roller or eye roller on the floor?

Scoop up and throw away the broken pieces and salvage the roller if you can. Smooth out the bottom where it broke at the handle with a nail file or sandpaper so it’s not rough on your hand. Keep rolling on. Enjoy!

Run don’t walk with this tip the after Easter sales are waiting for you! Not only for your favorite Easter candies, but shop for the plastic Easter eggs! On SALE! Last year I snatched up a dozen colorful eggs for .17 cents a package.

You know what I use them for?
I use them to hold my washed and clean beauty blending sponges. Works for travel and for your cosmetic bag depending on the size of your bag. Don’t buy an expensive holder. Try this! I’ve even turned on my makeup artist friends to this trick. Works like a charm!

Down to the end of a liquid foundation? Brow gel? Mascara? Or blemish potion? Add a dash of distilled or spring water to them. Not tap water! Doing this will give life to your product until you can replenish those products.

I sometimes use those facial makeup wipes in a pinch or sometimes use them when I travel. They are not really great for the planet 🌍 or your skin but if you like to use them… enjoy this tip!

I cut them in half and the package of towelettes lasts me even longer and saves $ money too.

It’s good to love ❤️ our Mother Earth and to repurpose, recycle and reuse. Use them to the last drop! Don’t waste! Enjoy them.

It was a cool rainy mist night in Florida last night for a change and the weather continued with cold rainy weather this Easter Day. I went for a walk. I hadn’t done that for awhile. Work and life got in the way.

But… I’m reminded how much I needed the escape and walk. Maybe you do too!

Walking and being outside with Mother 🍃 Earth 🌎 is so important even more these days.

Brighten your day in a healthy way. It doesn’t have to be long. Just 10 minutes helps. Nature offers us so much! A visual explosion of flowers and green. My palm trees outside my home or studio bring me so much joy.

Oh the beauty of fresh air! Taking a few deep breaths. Hold and release.

They say it can really lift our spirits and mood. I so agree! It makes me happy and my lungs happy too.

Reflecting and pausing to hear the happy birds chirping a tune. Hearing the leaves 🍃 in the wind. Smelling the wild flowers along the way. Even if it’s raining it can be a beautiful day.

I read where listening to just three minutes of the cheerful songs 🎶 of the birds in the daytime can stimulate the brains frontal lobe and increases the production of energizing beta waves. What’s not to love about that?

I have also read taking a short walk before you call it a night and get ready to wind down and go to bed… helps our bodies produce melatonin. Thus hopefully get a better nights sleep.

You don’t need to necessarily go to a park to walk. Your neighborhood will do.

You’ll more likely feel better and if you’re feeling a bit blue it will help you too. I know it’s hard to smile these days with so much coming at us in the news and in the world. But self-care needs to be at the top of your To Do list.

If you can’t get outdoors because of health reasons or you had to work today. Think that you are outside. Pretend you’re enjoying and walking outdoors. Your mind is a powerful tool.

I hope you have a fabulous and delicious day!
