How to: Go Out In PUBLIC Wearing NO Makeup!

Here's how to have the confidence to go out without makeup!
Bring attention to some other part of you!
If everyone's looking at, say your hair, then what does it matter if you're wearing makeup or not? You could also wear bright, attention-seeking clothes, but I prefer to pay more attention to my hair.
To get people to look at your hair make it big and bouncy! Straight hair doesn't usually have the same effect. What you really need is lots of volume. If you have naturally straight or limp hair don't worry! You can make it big and bouncy without heat and with nothing but a couple of hair bobbles!
I like to make my hair gorgeously wavy using the technique in this video:

In the morning when I take the bobbles out I just put Bed Head After Party smoothing cream through my hair to smooth out any kinks (optional step) and hairspray it to keep it wavy all day but you don't have to do this. My hair just doesn't keep very big waves in for long! :)

Go out with hair like this and everyone will think you're gorgeous! But if you're still unsure then read on!
First you've got to figure out what you're biggest makeup addiction is. My would probably be concealer to cover up the bags under my eyes. So if you have the same problem get rid of those bags! Use chilled teabags or chilled cucumber slices over your eyes for 20 mins or so a day, and use eye moisturiser!
If you're addicted to mascara then try just curling your lashes! Addicted to blusher? Pinch/gently slap your cheeks or do 5 mins dancing to get rosy cheeks! Bronzer? Sunbathe!! (But use suncream!) Concealer for spots? Go on my product reviews or home remedies for spots and get rid of them! Lipgloss/lipstick? Just use lipbalm (tinted if you want) or lipsalve!

Beauty Is Only Skin Deep...

Not true! I know that sounds vain and shallow but it's not! Us girls don't put makeup on or have beauty treatments done to look good for others (or not all the time anyway) mostly we do it for ourselves. If you look good then you feel good. So don't let anyone tell you you're vain for wanting to look your best but listen when they tell you you're beautiful because you are, everyone is.

For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.

For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.

For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.

For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day.

For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone.

The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair.

The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides.

The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mode, but the true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows.

That's why the beauty of a woman grows with the passing years.

How To: Have Beautifully Soft Feet!

Here's how to have feet that feel soft to the touch!

 

1. Before bed apply body lotion to your feet.
2. Put on some nice soft socks - I wear furry ones I think they're slipper socks? Apparently it works if you wear cotton socks and I don't know what mine are made out of but my socks make me all warm and cosy so! :D
3. Sleep tight!
4. If you have really dry skin on feet try getting a wet flannel and rubbing it along the bottom of your foot - Mine seemed to go away with just the lotion and socks but this is a quicker way - or use a nail file (or I've heard there are foot files?) along the bottom of your foot if the flannel doesn't work.

 

Hope it works for you!
