I like to take sunflower or pumkin seeds daily with my porridge or yogart this enables me to obtain my omega 3 6 and 9 and should help me maintain good skin and good clear outs!
I have to go with drinking lots of water and smiling all the way. it really works. I am 51 and most will give my age as a good 10 years younger.
Beauty starts from within - inner beauty, outer cleanliness - drink at least 8 glasses of water per day will help you rest, work and play - and feel beautiful.
I read a few articles recently that said that the 8-glasses a day thing is actually (as these things often are) a false assumption of some research done by Dr. Frederick Stare, a nutritionist who said that you need the equivalent of about 8 glasses of water a day in your diet. This was a baseless statement which had no scientific basis to it at all.
Obviously water is important, but people underestimate the amount of water that you get from your food - this can be up to 6 glasses a day equivalent (obviously depending on what you eat). Many people think the 8-glasses a day myth is perpetuated by large water companies who make their money from bottled water.
Regardless, 8 glasses a day is probably not necessary for optimum health, but keeping hydrated definitely is.
apply honey and lemon to the hair for a healthy shine
Use foundation on your eyelids before applying eyeshadow. It helps the eyeshadow stay on longer.
Use a hair dryer for a few seconds on your eyelash curler.
Spray your face with cold water or stand with your head in the air from the freezer for a few moments to reduce redness.

Keep active and try to have a meaningful and fulfilling life. This will help to keep you young on the inside which will naturally show on the outside.
Instead of using a chemical make-up remover, use baby oil. It is not so harsh on your skin, removes make-up effortlessly, and leaves your skin feeling soft afterwards.
dark chocolate is a quick fix for an instant glow.Also yoghurt is another good option for problem skin.
Laugh - everyday!
And use moisturizer or foundation (whatever your preference) with SPF10 or 15! Everyday! On face and neck! I know its boring but it will hold back the years & the damage!
walk places rather than bus. Buy a second hand bike and cycle. i like to use facial scrubs in the hope that I keep getting new skin!!!And moisturise moisturise ladies.
when hair is a bit greasy and you have no time to wash, shake a little talcum powder onto your scalp and brush through
Before you go to sleep at night rub Vaseline on your feet. Sleep with cotton socks and wake up in the morning with baby smooth feet. I know it can be a bit hot at night sleeping with socks on but it's worth it.
Hi there my beauty tips are to exfoliate use some granulated sugar add a bit of water and rub in to the face or body gently rinse with hot water then splash clean with cold water,another moisturiser is use vegetable oil i put it on before bed and wear pjs so it does not get everywhere shower in the morning then moisturise with your usual product you will see the difference in your skins texture straight away,another one leave olive oil in your hair overnight and wash in the morning,another for the face avocado mashed with some honey leave on for ten minutes do this once a week this is realy good for problem skin as the natural healing power of the honey works a treat and it also tastes good,I could go on with lots of money saving tips,vaseline to moisturise your eyelashes if you want to know more let me know
Massage the matrix (the area of skin just below your cuticle) on your fingers and thumb for strong healthy nails. Do this while applying hand creams.

Be happy and smile, there is nothing more beautiful then happiness and joy in someone.
Push your nails into a lime wedge to whiten and remove grime! I know, not a massive beauty tip per se, but every little helps;)
my best tip is for lips, use a mild creamy scrub to slough off dead skin and moisturise well afterwards - 2 times a week. Don't use anything harsh or go over board!
Smile - for a smile lightens up your whole face and you will look so much more attractive.
My best beauty tip is to take care of your hands as they are the most visible part of you but they also take the most abuse!
look after your hands whilst washing up by adding a tsp of almond oil to the water it will seal the moisture into your skin.
mix lemon juice with sea salt and apply with an old toothbrush to exfoliate hands once or twice a week.
mix a tsp of oilve oil and a tsp of honey and apply to your hands before bed, wear a pair of cotton gloves over night and your hands will be beautifully soft in the morning.
warm a cup of milk for 30 seconds or so just until it is warm but not too hot to touch, put your finger tips in it for 10 mins or so to feed your nails and cuticles.
result= beautiful hands!
To make your eyelashes look super long, use an eyelash curler and then blast some hot air onto your lashes while curling! The result is that you have luscious lashes without the hassle of mascara!
Get plenty of sleep - have a great sex life - drink lots of water and appreciate everything you have.
To improve your skin, supercharge your diet with fruit and vegetables. This means almost no need for expensive supplements and an entirely natural source of - among other things - collagen, hyaluronic acid and retinol.
As a 38 year old woman, who is constantly asked for I.D when playing the lottery or purchasing alcohol, the secret to "looking" youthful is feeling youthful. Smiling on the inside. Being authentic in your actions. Eating and drinking thoughtfully- thinking about what you supply your body with. Surrounding yourself with "real" people. Enjoying yourself, I mean really enjoying yourself. NOT doing things to please other people. But doing things because it is the right thing to do.
if your skin looks tired, just mash some banana and apply it on face.rinse after 15 min.
mashed cottage cheese mixed with few drops of lemon and one tea spoon of olive oil works perfectly as well.
for body: in the shower massage your skin with the bits of coffee which are left after you drunk it( without sugar,of course) .skin become very soft.it helps to fight with cellulite.
for shiny hair: the best is to mix egg( yellow part) with a spoon of cogniac.gently massage into hair and leave for 10 min.then rinse.
it really works and does not cost much!
Smile and make someone happy! Think about quality of life -eat healthily and exercise sensibly. Today is the first day of the rest of your life - enjoy it
To remove blackheads, steam for 5 mins and exfoliate immediately.
My beauty tip is less is more when it comes to appying make-up. For instance if i apply lots of eyeliner and mascara i will keep my lips simple and if i apply lots of lipstick i will keep my eye make-up minimal. It's simple!
True beauty comes from within. No regime or product will make a hateful person beautiful. So feed your soul, be good to yourself and others. Beauty is indefinable.
get 8 hours sleep.
If you burn yourself, quickly put colgate, will cool instantly and leave no scars
find time to relax for you. Allways cleanse and moisturize and sleep well.
I'm 65, with no major health problems, I don't think I look my age - I put this down to healthy eating, drinking plenty of water, having younger friends but I have ALWAYS used a moisturiser twice a day all my adult life.
Before applying foundation try using a serum first. This will allow your makeup to glide over your skin easily and is much kinder to your skin.
