HERE ARE MY TOP PICKS...I HAVE SOOOOOOOOO MANY MORE!!!

LET'S HEAR YOUR TOP 5 BEAUTY TIPS/TRICKS/PRODUCTS!!! SHARE SHARE SHARE!

1. Use vaseline to remove eye makeup - it's the best makeup remover around.  It's so gentle (and we should be using gentle products around the eye area) and it doesn't sting when it gets in your eye!!

2. Push cuticles back while taking a hot shower - your cuticles will be softened and it only takes a minute!

3. Baby shampoo - If you don't use a lot of heavy products in your hair, use baby shampoo to wash your hair...it's so gentle.  Since it's so gentle, it also preserves colour. (Not so great if you do use a lot of products)

4. Best concealer to cover under eye circles - Laura Mercier's "Secret Concealer" followed by "Secret Brightening Powder".  It REALLY covers up dark circles! I LOVE these products!  They're a little pricey (but not SUPER expensive) but a little goes a long way....

5. Dry lips - If you have dry lips, brush them with a tooth bruch before bed to remove the dead skin and then pop a vitamin E capsule and apply vit E to your lips overnight.  You'll wake up with soft lucious lips!

As someone who rarely does little more than showering, brushing my teeth and hair, this should be informative.  but i do have a friend who works in a salon so i'll share hers

Use baby wipes to remove make-up - this i have been told works really well and my mom does it too!

tea-tree oil! it's a great natural antiseptic - works on piercings and minor infections, and great for break outs.

Eye shadow and lipstick will stay put if a thin layer of concealer is applied first - i have used this and it worked for me.

now to brush my lips and try some vitamin E!!

Laura Mercier is sold at Holt Renfrew... where do you live?  If in the GTA, there's a holt renfrew on Bloor St. downtown Toronto, there's one in Yorkdale Mall (Toronto) and Sherway Gardens Mall in Etobicoke.

It may also be sold at Sephora (I haven't looked there before)

If you go to the Laura Mercier counter at a Holt Renfrew, ask them to put the concealer and brightening powder on you, just to try it out... you'll be amazed!

1) Oil Of Olay Complete Moisture Lotion with UV Defense.  It's light, oil-free and offers UV protection of 15 for your face!

2) MAC concealer

3) Spectro Acne Care!  It's a small bottle and the stuff really wipes out zits in NO TIME!!!  I can't live without it!!!!!

4) Revlon ColorStay Overtime Lipcolor lipstick!  The stuff really does stay on!!!!!

5) my favorite;SELF-CONFIDENCE!!!
