createthislookforlessxHey! I love your posts!! I was wondering how to use bronzer and what kind I should get. I have rather fair skin but it's a little tan from the summer. And what brush should I use to apply the bronzer? Thanks!!
Embryolisse is on Hautelook today! I purchased two!
Mix jojoba oil in with your body lotion if your skin is very dry. This will help add more moisture back into the skin.
Your perfume will last longer if applied to skin that has been well moisturized & oiled up. The oils grab onto the smells.
Almond oil is great for dry hands and cuticles. Start by applying a tiny amount to your hands, let this set for 5 minutes, then wipe off with a dry cloth. Finish by applying a hand cream.
Soften pillow crease lines that were left on your face by splashing warm water on your skin, then massaging area with moisturizer.
Cut your self tanner with moisturizer (1/2 and 1/2) to dilute the color and give yourself a more natural looking tan.

Here’s a great way to create your own tinted moisturizer. If you want a sheerer coverage and don’t want to go out and purchase new makeup try mixing your liquid foundation with a moisturizer. If you really want a glow use a shimmer moisturizer mixed with your liquid foundation.
Guys, you need to take care of your skin just as much as women do. Make sure to moisturize before and after shaving which will help reduce razor burn, cuts or scratches as well as keeping your skin hydrated. Listed below are some great products for men.
