BARE MINERALS SPF 30 NATURAL SUNSCREEN

 

Recently the most popular beauty tip is using a sunscreen before going out everyday. However most of the sunscreens can damage our skin in the future because of the preservatives and chemicals they contain. And they may cause serious health problems. We should use natural and certified products to prevent this. 

A while ago I ordered Bare Minerals SPF 30 Natural Sunscreen online and it's perfect for oily skins. Here are general features;

It is  preservative free, chemical free and oil free. The award winning product is certified as "natural". 

 

It's basicly powder so it prevents sweating and does not clog pores.

Comes in 3 shades and evens out skin tone.

It has a very smooth brush, the powder is at the bottom and the brush is at the top of the tube.

To use, open the cover and appy the brush on your face, the powder comes out of the brush.

It has SPF 30.

It contains Vitamin A, C & E, aloevera extracts and some antioxidans.

The height of the tube is about 10cm and can be carried in any purse.

I ordered it on Strawberry and it costed about $35.00.  

Tip: Sometimes I can't be sure if I apply enough of the sunscreen, so I just open the clear lid, put some powder on a white paper, close the lid, and apply the powder by the brush. 

You can't feel the product on your skin at all, that makes it wonderful!

 

Skin Brightening Mask

Does your neck or rest of your body have darker skin tone than your face? It's because your body is protected by clothes whereas your face and hands exposed to the sun all the time. Although this tone difference is significant in summer you may have it in winter too.

You can make some facial masks at home to remove tan. Wash your face with a proper cleanser.  Mix one table spoon yogurt with 2-3 drops of lemon. If possible use strained yogurt. Apply the mixture to all your face and neck. Wait for 20 minutes and rinse. If your skin feels tight, apply moisturizer. Yogurt and lemon is popular skin whitening nutritions. Plus, yogurt moisturises and smoothes your skin out. Do not go out when you have the mask on because lemon has asid which can be harmful under sun. If you use this mask for 15 days, you will be suprised with the result.

OLIVE OIL BEAUTY TIPS

Olive oil is the beauty secret of many celebrities. This wonderful natural oil has no any side effect and it has many benefits on health when eaten so it's very commonly used in beauty cures. You don't have to be at home all day to get benefits of it. Try putting olive oil in some glass jars and carrying in your purse. Here is how to use it daily;

- If you wash your hair often and it makes your hair dry, then try using olive oil as hair conditioner. Just put a few drop in your hads and apply it to your hair and comb after bath. You will have perfectly soft hair when it dries.

Skip using chemical hair conditioners, after bath lotions and baby oils as all of these contain harmful chemicals to protect their content. When you use them, these chemicals are absorbed by your skin and passed to blood by capillary vessels. Olive oil is a perfect alternative to these products.
