Makeup and Skin Care Tips for Teenagers

Cleanliness is very important and not only for hygiene purposes. If you want your face to shine and to look healthy, you will need to treat it right. The first makeup tips for teens you need to learn is the use of face cleansing products.  Always go for the mild cleansers and moisturizers; please don't attack your skin using harsh chemicals, as these will really ruin your looks in the long run.  If you are having trouble with acne, dead sea products can be helpful and are not harsh. 

Subtle makeup is a must for teenagers. Mineral Makeup is always a good choice since these products are all natural and actually good for the skin but you don't really need much. Concealer can be used to cover blemishes or acne scars, or dark circles around the eyes. Never overdo it, as the effect will be just the opposite. Subtlety is the key word for teenage makeup; therefore, use only natural colors and only in small amounts, so you do not look older than you truly are.

Gloss instead of lipstick!!  For a natural look, gloss is recommended over lipstick. Natural makeup tips include the use of gloss as a great way to bring forward the beauty of your lips which are not yet marred by the passage of time. To keep them wrinkle free for a longer time, it is recommended to moisturize them daily, and to drink plenty of water, something your skin will also be terribly thankful for. Beauty and makeup tips for teenagers also include strong recommendations for hydrating your lips before applying lip gloss or lipstick. Bee wax or balm can be used for such purposes.

When you want to apply makeup on your eyes, you need to take a few things into consideration. For instance, do not apply a continuous line on the lower lid, and only apply a few dots here and there, smudging afterward. Using a white pencil on the inner corners of your eyes will bring out their natural shininess. For mascara, use a lighter formula that will not make your eyelashes stick together and look too heavy. Brown for eye pencil, and golden for eye shadow, are among the recommended colors for eye makeup for teenagers. Always keep in mind to use natural looking colors, and never overdo it.

These makeup tips for teens will help you achieve a natural, healthy look.  It is hard to avoid over doing makeup when you just want to be older but your skin will thank you later and the natural look is really the in look today.  Learn to up makeup on the right way and take of your skin.

The Dead Sea

Why is it called the Dead Sea?

It's called the Dead Sea because nothing lives in it. There is no seaweed or moss that collects on the bottom or any fish or creatures living in or near the water. As a matter of fact, what you'll see on the shores of the Dead Sea is white crystals of salt covering EVERYTHING.

The salts found in the Dead Sea are mineral salts, just like any other ocean except these salts are extremely concentrated. The water in the Dead Sea is so concentrated that it is considered deadly to all living things EXCEPT humans. We can swim in the Dead Sea just like any other body of water except people don't really "swim", we float! Because the Dead Sea is extremely concentrated with dissolved mineral salts, the water density is much greater then any other salt water including the ocean. So instead of swimming in the Dead Sea, you just float on top of the water like a cork.

How did the Dead Sea Form?

In this part of the world there is a rift forming where two crustal plates are spreading apart. The East Rift Valley runs through most of Africa, but it starts north of the Dead Sea and runs south along the eastern side of the continent. The Sea is located right along the Rift Valley were the Earth's crust is being stretched thin.

To get an idea of how this "crustal spreading" occurs, take a bar of taffy and try to pull it apart. You'll see where the candy starts stretch it gets really thin just before it breaks. That's what is happening to the Earth's crust in the Rift Valley. Where the Earth's crust gets thin that part of the surface sinks lower. The Dead Sea is still sinking lower even today. Scientists figure the Dead Sea sinks an average of 13 inches each year! On a geologic time scale that's incredibly fast!

Save Time, Save Money and Make Less Mess - Press It

This is my favorite Makeup tip... Press it!!!

Press your foundation and finishing powders to create a pressed foundation.  You will save time and money by creating less mess.  Simply take a lid or coin about the same size as the opening of the sifter jar (cover with suran rap).  You can also use the flat end of our Kabuki brush. 

Remove the sifter and press the lid, coin or flat end of the kabuki into the foundation.  You may need to do this several times to get it evened out.  Once this is complete you can dispose of the sifter if you like, you really won’t need it anymore.

Take your brush and gentle touch it to the foundation.  You will see you get the perfect amount of foundation and no tapping off the excess is required.
