Beauty tips to share

So no more blogging about the highs and lows of my love life since we all know how this story ends. I have no problem meeting guys but can't seem to keep them, blah blah blah. I have shitty luck and only attract liars, but I'm not ready for the real thing anyway.

So instead I'll share some beauty tips that have helped me over the years:

1. At the end of your shower, turn off the hot water and rinse your body in ice cold water for 10 seconds. It's good for your skin, keeps your breasts firm, and defrizzes your hair. It feels great in the summer but it's not so easy in the winter.

2. Don't wash your hair every day. I know it sounds gross, but once you do it for about a week your hair gets used to it, and it doesn't get greasy. It actually looks better the next day. Get a good shower cap and cover your hair when you shower. Smooth a little bit of baby powder on your roots or try one of the many expensive dry shampoos. You will save money when you shampoo less and your hair grows faster and feels healthier.

3. Wear sunscreen on your face every day. Don't forget to cover your neck too. I love Jergen's Natural Glow Moisturizer with SPF 20. It gives you a healthy tint without looking fake.

4. Speaking of glow, I also love Jergen's Natural Glow foaming lotion. It feels nice and cool on your skin and gives you even, natural looking tan.

5. Use men's razors for shaving your legs. In fact use them for all shaving. In college a friend told me to try men's razors and I never went back to the pussy girlie ones that cut the shit out of my legs. I use a Mach 3 and I love it. It gives me a much closer shave and I rarely cut myself. I'm a hairy girl and I only need to shave my legs about once a week.

6. I carry John Frieda's Secret Weapon style in cream in my purse but it's so amazing at taming my frizzies.

7. Don't be the kind of woman who wears makeup every day, especially eye makeup. It makes you look old and it will be a big suprise the first time someone sees you without it, and not a good suprise.

8. Get haircuts at a good salon. Go to the same stylist everytime and they'll get to know your hair and your style. I go to a fancy salon and get highlights and see it as an accessory that I wear everyday, so I get a lot more use from it than expensive shoes or jeans.

9. Nothing makes your skin look better than exercise, especially cardio.

10. Love yourself and masturbate often. Haha.
