Beauty Tip Of The Day

"If you have dry skin or tend to suffer from dry spots on your face (like me), then make sure to moisturise your neck everyday. When the neck becomes dry, it draws moisture from your face, making the dry spots worse, and we certainly don't want that!"

"For naturally frizzy hair, avoid getting too many layers in as it will only serve to make your hair look bulky. Instead use mousse to tame and give a gorgeous shine and professional perm look!"

Beauty Tip Of The Day

"To make a round face appear slimmer and more elongated, use an oval-headed cheek brush to apply a matte bronzer in the hollows of your cheeks. Think of a tadpole shape - the ‘head’ in the hollow under the apple of the cheek, the ‘tail’ blending to nothing towards the hairline. " Jemma Kid - Makeup Artist

"For gorgeous natural curls, plait your hair or weave it round your fingers when wet and tie a scrunchie at the end. Leave to dry naturally and then untie, and voila, gorgeous, bouncy curls the healthy way a la Miss Aniston!!"

(Note: larger plaits provide larger, looser curls, and vice-versa.)

"A cream concealer gives the best coverage but make sure to set it with translucent powder. Use a powder puff instead of a brush - the bristles can ruin the finish." - Mario Dedivanovic (make-up artist to celebs).

Beauty Tip Of The Day

" To achieve that 'just stepped out of the spa' look, soak a face-cloth under hot water and wring the water out. Place on a clean face and leave for 30secs. Remove the towel and dampen your skin. Cleanse your face with your regular cleanser and wash with hot water. Once finished, splash your face with cold water, and the end result - gorgeous, clean, glowing skin!"

The hot cloth acts like a mini sauna for your face, opening the pores. Washing with hot water brings all the dirt out of the pores, and lastly, the cold water acts like a seal and closes the pores for a beautiful, glowing face.
