I am sorry, but on my first post I forgot to leave my skin tip. I believe getting plenty of sleep helps the body and soul. Thanks,Cindi
I remove all make-up with a “wipes” every night, then put on moisturizer. I’m 68 tomorrow and am told I have the skin of a teenager. Nice compliment!
My secret is sunscreen and witch hazel every morning and every night.
Keep it natural when using makeup (less and more) and remember use the companies that Do Not Test on Animals.
Thanks.
oopsies….less is more…sorry
use lots of vaseline instead of expensive moisture lotions.
Use a homemade scrub of sugar and lime juice on your face to keep your skin soft. Great giveaway, thanks!

My beauty secret is to always wear mascara — it makes you look less tired and makes your eyes stand out!
Exfoliate daily and get plenty of sleep!
Drink lots of water everyday. It’s good for the body and the complexion and it’s good for everyone.
My favourite beauty secret is apply ice to my face after wearing a mud mask, it makes your skin extra tight, and closes the pores on your skin.
I think it’s crucial to wash your face before going to sleep at night.
Get enough sleep and drink lots of water. Thank you so much!
Moisturize your knuckles and elbows!
My favorite beauty secret is using witch hazel to take my makeup off. It helps to contain oils on your face and your skin will have less breakouts!
I’ve been using nothing but body cream everyday and it has worked. Maybe I shoud try to exfoliate.
Stay hydrated and always wash your face before bed.
I make my own exfoliating face wash by adding sugar to my regular face wash.
Drink lots of water!
A good moisturizer, sun block, and drink plenty of water! Lovely craftsmanship on the cloths!
You are so talented!! I wash my face every night, drink lots of water, get lots of sleep.

enough sleep, plenty of water
Sleep with a really great moisturizer all over!
wonderful face scrubbies and beautiful color. I exfoliate my face and body at least 2x a week , I also use a moisturizer with spf in it everyday!
my favorite beauty secret is to wear a minimal amount of makeup, make it look like you arn’t wearing makeup and only conceal your flaws, and if you are going to go dramatic, only do it on one part of the face (i.e dark eyeshadow and pale lips.)
Use a Vitamin C Peel weekly.
Take care of your neck as well as you take care of your face
I like to mix my own makeup so I get the right shade or color!
Drink LOTS of water!
exfoliate daily with a gentle scrub or polish.
I get the comment that I look like a teenager a lot.
I think it’s because I’m a night owl and I tend to stay out of the sun. I also don’t smoke or lay out in the sun to tan, and I actually enjoy drinking water.
Plus, I started moisturizing when I was 24. I think that if you wait until you have wrinkles to moisturize, it’s not as effective as prevention.
Always wear sunscreen when you go out.
I use sunscreen daily, year round and I also use a moisturizer on top of it.
Cute!
Be gentle with your skin, don’t tug or pull it.
don’t frown or scowl alot, and smile often, so the wrinkles you have when you’re old won’t make you look mean
My beauty secret! A bi-weekly facial with oatmeal and egg whites!
Drink lots of water and for inexpensive moisturizing, after washing your face while it is still damp blot a little peroleum jelly (especially your lips and undereye area) it really works wonders!)
eat lots of fruit and veggies and whole wheat products
Sunscreen and lip balm!ty 4 the great contest!
always wear sunscreen, no matter the weather!
sunscreen
moisturize day and night.
I think water and sleep are the key beauty secrets for anyone…free and available. Thanks for entering me.
Favorite beauty secret..moisturizer.
who would have thought?
wash face nightly
My favorite beauty secret is baby oil, works great as a makeup remover.
Wear foundation with sunscreen in it. It works as well or better than regular sunscreen. I find regular sunscreen to be too greasy causing my face to sweat. The sunscreen then gets wiped off in as I wipe the sweat of my face. Regular sunscreen also promotes acne in my skin.
just lipstick
Before bed, put a thick layer of moisturizer on your feet and wear a nice soft pair of cotton socks. It will make your feet all pretty for sandal season.
I always wear sunscreen.
Drink lots of water!
I simply love softness!

Stay out of the sun!
I use a gentle cleanser every afternoon when I get home from work. In the mornings, I moisturize.
My greatest beauty tip is that when cleansing and moisturizing my face, I consider my face to extend down to my collar bone and beyond. That way, my neck gets the benefit of all the beauty products I use on my face itself.
Lots of water.
Sunscreen, sunscreen, sunscreen!! I would love to have one of these cloths. Thank you.
gallons of cold cream
These are so cute, they definitely are prettier than my exfoliating gloves from the dollar store haha
My favorite beauty tip is to always put sunscreen on my neck, hands and chest as well as my face since those areas have thin, delicate skin and are as prone to sun damage as our faces.
Facial soap, no harsh bars, sun screen, etc.
My favorite beauty secret is baking soda as a daily facial scrub and this hand crocheted would be great in doing that.

Used teabags take the puffiness out of eyelids after a late night the night before.
