Avoid Beauty and Hygiene Mistakes

Are You Making These Beauty Mistakes?

Michy Jr.
Women sort of learn how to put on makeup as they grow, by following magazines, their friends, or actress trends with makeup and beauty styles on television. I did it when I was a kid, and boy did I make some major mistakes with my makeup and beauty! Even now, I tend to make some of these mistakes from time to time, and have to remind myself not fall into the beauty blunder traps some women fall into.

What about you? Are you making beauty and makeup mistakes without realizing? Let's read on and see!

Beauty Mistake: Letting Yourself Go
Beauty Tip: Take Care of Hygiene

Even when you're not dressing up and going out, that doesn't mean you can get up and wash your face, comb through your hair and put on some clothes. A big part of self esteem is feeling good and looking good. Even if you're not going to the store, or going out on the town, you can still look presentable and fresh and clean.

Wash your face and brush your teeth at least once daily. Comb through your hair and style it or put it up. Put on something comfortable, but more than just lounging around in pajamas or a robe. You'll feel better if you look better!

Beauty Mistake: Plucking Eyebrows Too Much
Beauty Tip: Don't Over Pluck Eyebrows

Oh, my goodness. Have you ever seen a woman with a very thin film of hair on her eyebrows and then she pencils in very fake looking brows? Natural eyebrows are a lot more attractive then fake ones or ones drawn by a pencil, and be real ladies... everyone can tell! Save the plucking for hairs growing in between the brows and just light shaping if you absolutely must pluck!

Beauty Mistakes: Yellowing, Stained Teeth & Bad Breath
Beauty Tip: Brush and Whiten Teeth

It's best to use a cavity fighting stain resistant toothpaste, and then gargle with a weak hydrogen peroxide solution, or even brush with the solution. This will help whiten your teeth and fight bad breath. Nothing detracts from beauty like yellow or stained teeth.

Beauty Mistake: Hairy, Unshaven Legs
Beauty Tip: Shave Legs

During the winter, when you're not wearing skirts or shorts, you might be tempted to go without shaving your legs, but you'll feel better and more attractive it you keep your legs shaved and smooth against your clothing. If you are wearing a short skirt or a shorts, shaving or waxing is an absolute must. Unsightly stubble on legs is very unattractive.

These are just a few basic beauty mistakes and tips for correction that I see on a regular basis when I'm out and about during the day. These are things other people notice too. Taking care not to make these beauty mistakes and using the tips to correct them will help people notice you for the right reasons! We're all beautiful on the inside, and these beauty tips can help keep you beautiful on the outside too!

    I think the only time I went a long period of time without shaving my legs was when I was VERY pregnant and just couldn't reach! lol
