Do Skin Care Routines Actually Work?

Dermatologists dish eight reasons why we should keep putting on the lotions and potions

This is a TotalBeauty.com skin care article Skin pros nudge us to keep taking care of our skin day and night and tell why it really works. Find out

I personally am packing up and writing and doing laundry and you name it right now! Moms multi-task the best! I recently sampled the Mini Kittour travel bags that a wee touch more stylish than a basic plastic bag. Though, for you fashionistas on a budget who need a great looking bag that can hold toiletries and withstand a spill in it AND clean up with a simple wipe of a paper towel: Modella is for you! They are durable, affordable and easily accessible at your local Walmart. The link for today is for the Walmart selection. Or how about you just take mine?
This bag that I am holding in the picture is full of other little clear zipper bags for separating your makeups, skincare and hygiene items that can then be stored and transported in the bigger bag. Plus, if you ask me, the bigger bag is great for going to the pool, river or beach.

To get mine: comment on this weekend's celebration of Independence Day. I love celebrating the fourth of July because it is a significant history making day for the United States.

I will draw a winner at random on July 4th! You must live in the continental United States to win, and be 18 years of age or older. Get commentin' and get my bag!

Monday makeup lessons for humidity

Happy Monday!
I always get more accomplished on a Monday than I do other days. Here in Arizona, it was a massive monsoon storm yesterday. Short, powerful and amazing! And after the rain comes a thick, sticky veil of humidity that no deoderant/anti-persperant can compete with, let alone your cosmetics!

So how do you keep your face on during humid times?

I would start with using a facial wash and tone for oily skin on these days so that the higher astringent level will help control oil.

If you haven't been using a self tanner made for the face, now is the time to start if you are going to have more humidity. The challenge with humid weather is that the skin continues to be moist and it's hard for product to hug the skin. You can either use a thin layer of tinted moisturizer that if it moves won't be a big deal in your day, or, get the waterproof makeup, something that is designed for swimmers or sweater's.

Second, use a stain on your lips and cheeks, there are so many choices in Sephora or Ulta these days when it comes to color.

I recommend using a waterproof/water resistant eye liners and mascaras in humid weather so they don't run, and as you wipe and dab at the moisture on your face they have less chance of smudging. Try Makeup Forever, it's one of the best brands in waterproof with alot of color choices. Sue Devitt Studios makes amazing water resistant, botanical based mascara.

For your eyeshadows, a good matte high pigmented shadow will cling to the skin even through humidity and your eyelids being moist from the weather.

Eyebrows: I prefer a powder to draw on brows, but if you like pencil, use the waterproof!

Lips, keep it sheer or tinted lip with sheer over it.

Humidity happens! The storms that bring rain are so good for the vegetation and little critters and you can keep your beauty on with a few simple product changes.

Enjoy!
The class list for workshops is posted on the main page of www.makeupuniversity.com these are small groups of ladies who want to learn how to do their makeup. It's basically what Cosmo magazine didn't' tell you and your mother didn't know!
