Yea, yea... new year new you. Right? Right! Well of course I posted about fitness goals for 2015, but here are some easy ways to take your beauty regimen up a notch, too – without even really trying.
1. Remove Your Makeup Before Bed, Really
Whether you do this via a Ponds face wipe or actually take the time to properly wash your face at night, you’re already a step ahead of the game. Ready for the challenge? Take cleansing to the next level and try using a brush like the new Clarisonic Smart Profile. I'm obsessed with my Clarisonic and use it nightly. This brush cleans your skin 11 times better than washing just with your hands.
2. Step Out of Your Makeup Comfort Zone
Always wear the same shades? It’s time to take risks! Try a new colored eyeliner or texture of blush. Believe me, you’ll be amazed by the trial and error process. It's my job to try and test everything, whether it's in my comfort zone or not, and I always end up surprising myself as I apply new finds. Purple eyeliner is now my new go-to.
3. Work Out Topically, Too
Because the stair master doesn’t help fight cellulite. We all have it and even though there's no way to rid it for good, we have the power to try to minimize it! Once a week before showering, stand in your tub and use a body brush like this one from The Body Shop. Yes, it gets rid of dry skin, but also helps with cellulite. Then of course, lather on that cream! I like Nivea Skin Firming Cellulite Gel Cream and Bliss Fat Girl Sleep.
4. Master At-Home Hair Color
This can literally save you hundreds of dollars per year. Now with modern technology, doing your hair color at home is really easier than ever. For some fun colors like blue and purple, try Rita Hazan Pop Color, which washes out. You can even ombre your own hair with this kit from L'Oreal. But for your everyday, single process, Clairol Nice N' Easy makes it just that – easy.
