Clarisonic Skincare brush. I finally don't have to fight clogged skin all the time! :) Can't live without it.
Aveeno Positively Radiant cleansing scrubbers..


these things are amazing.


honestly.


my skin is so soft..and you can literally notice a difference in that it scrubs the dead skin right off..leaving your skin more radiant.
I would choose the Proactiv kit. It is wonderful at keeping your face clear of any blemishes and your skin healthy. Anyone can get it, all you need to do is go to www.proactiv.com.
Vitamin E cleansing lotion from Body shop. I would swear on it !
Aloe Vera! Yep, just plain aloe vera. It makes an awesome hair conditioner - it leaves my hair so shiny and soft! It is especially nice if I mix it with lemon juice (the cheap bottled stuff from the grocery store is fine). Lemon juice removes residues that can make hair dull and lifeless - and it leaves your hair smelling great! Aloe Vera also makes a great as a shaving cream or skin moisturizer, and will help heal just about any skin problem.





You can buy aloe vera juice or gel at any health food store fairly cheap. You can also buy some sort of aloe vera just about anywhere but it might have a lot of crap added to it and the pure stuff is best.
Anna Sui Liquid Concealer.





It's saved my face countless times.

Proactive.
My cheek/lip stain. I couldn't live without this!


Sugababy make a good one, as do Revlon with the new Limited Edition range

Well it depends, your aunt may have a good job that brings in good income. Or she may have a budget on othet things just so that she can buy hair and make-up products.





I don't recommend buying make-up off other sites as they're cheaper, because most of them are fake. Just limit yourself to what else you can buy, don't go out for dinner as often, or save some money on fuel for your car by walking or public transport for a week.





These are just simple ideas.


Good Luck!
You can set up a monthly budget for yourself and buy within the budget. The most important thing is to buy quality not quantity. You don't want lots of fake and cheap makeups.





Makeups will last a long time so when you buy a few nice items each month and after a few months, you will accumulate lots nice products.

Ladies, what beauty tips do you recommend for long lasting make-up for women above 45?

My beautiful mother has been a housewife for more than 25 years now, she's 46 but looks like she's in her early 30s, honestly!!! The problem she has is that when ever shes goes out her make-up doesn't stay on for more than 30 minutes. On behalf of my mother, could you please help! Thank you :-)Ladies, what beauty tips do you recommend for long lasting make-up for women above 45?
Without knowing her skin type, it's hard to say whether this issue is due to oiliness of the skin, or whether she is simply using products that lack pigmentation. A high talc content in eyeshadows, for example, means they will disappear quite quickly.





I highly recommend that she try some products that have been specifically designed for length of wear. Some good ones to try, and which would possibly appeal to someone her age, would be:





- Estee Lauder Double Wear foundation (liquid), Chanel Mat Lumiere foundation (2-way powder), or Revlon ColourStay foundation (liquid).





- Bobbi Brown Longwear Cream Eyeshadows. These are absolutely budgeproof, and come in a wide range of neutral and non-shimmery shades.





- Waterproof mascara. I love Chanel Inimitable Waterproof, but there are plenty of other great low-end waterproof mascaras out there.





- Bobbi Brown Gel Eyeliner. Again, these absolutely do not budge, and the quality of pigmentation is first class.





- Clinique Blushwear Cream Stick - another long-last product, doesn't move once dry.





- For lips, she could try a longwearing lip colour (e.g. Revlon Colourstay Ultimate Liquid Lipstick), or if she finds these too drying, use a lip pencil before applying lipstick.





She should also invest in an oil-based makeup remover, to help her remove product at the end of the day.





Good luck, and good on you for doing something nice for your mum :-)Ladies, what beauty tips do you recommend for long lasting make-up for women above 45?
Make sure she cleanses, tones and moisturises. Let the moisturiser sink in for 30 minutes and then use a primer. Then use foundation





you can also buy eye primers [for eyeshadow to last longer] - MAC do a great eye primer


and also a lip primers and 'lip sealants'





hope this helps!
My best advice would be to cleanse tone and moisturise then use a primer for her face and on her eyelid (she can use concealer and loose powder for this) to keep the make up in place then after she has finished lightly dust loose powder over her face for a matte finish
Nivea visage tinted moisturising cream, its a great base instead of foundation put on some power before it dries and it doesn't feel like your face is coated with make up while still retain a natural flawless look
I would suggest that your mother purchase high quality make-up. Try Lancome, MAC, Clinique...etc.. Visit any of these places, and have them set her up!
Apply Foundation, And A More Heavy Foundation To Last
i use Clinique face powder...it stays on all day, a little mascara %26amp; i always use lip pencil instead of lipstick as that too ... lasts nearly all day.





edit: stupid, unkind answer from Darkstar!!
Tell her to use a primer!





Urban Decay's primer potion is best for eyes and personally I love the QUO face primer.
I'v heare that cement works better for those over 40 .........

Would meaningful beauty be good for a teen?

I have a little bit of acne, not terrible, I stopped using proactiv because of supposed faster aging process. I saw the infomercial and wondered if I started using it now, if it would keep my skin looking line free for longer. Would meaningful beauty good for breakouts, or just for anti-aging?Would meaningful beauty be good for a teen?
more for just anti-aging and it softens your skin. it does not help acne in anyway. with any good cleanser it cleanses your skin but it does not help with acne.Would meaningful beauty be good for a teen?
well i used proactiv for a really long time and it did absolutely NOTHING for me. i just switched to clean and clear acne control (it has a purple top) and my acne started dissapearing within 4 days! no joke! my friend asked me what i used when i was using proactiv and she suggested that i use the clean and clear that i use now and its sooo much better! she uses it too so its not just my skin. i dont know about the other brand you r thinkin about but just try the clean and clear with the purple top it really does work and you wont be dissapointed!!!

What courses do you need to go on to get the qualification to be a beauty therapist?

when im older i want to be a beautician i need to know what couses to go onWhat courses do you need to go on to get the qualification to be a beauty therapist?
good news for you! to become a beauty therapist you have to attend cosmetology school. Find one near you. i believe it'll cost about USD1000-2000 at most. Not including exam fees i guess. Where ur staying just find some cosmetology school in yahoo and you'll get an answer. I';m doing cosmetology now and it costs me USD2000 for classes and another USD2000 for 4 exam certificates from singapore,malaysia,united kingdom and zurich. That includes beauty materials all together. Have fun!

Can you make much money opening your own beauty salon?

I am doing a diploma in beauty therapy and want to open my own salon next year offering classic beauty treatments as well as holistic therapies. Is it hard to succeed or does it really depend on where you are and your business acumen?Can you make much money opening your own beauty salon?
Its very competitive market. But if you work hard its worth itCan you make much money opening your own beauty salon?
There's salons on every street; you will have a lot of competition. As with any business, you can make good money; but it is not easy and you will need money to start and run it in the first place. You'll need to show banks how you intend to beat the competition, to make your own niche separately from all the other people in your class and the ones already out there, to get loans enough to start.
If its popular and well-appraised, yes. You can draw people in by doing things different..making it a place they want to go to by offering drinks like lemonade in the summer and cocoa, coffee, and tea during cooler times..and also have coupons and deals, try to sell beauty products in the store, and overall get a designer to help with the look of the place. that is really important. the difference between people wanting to stop there or not. fun chic is a timeless look, which is bright colors mixed with clears, silvers, ect.
Business is Business, alot has to do with location and quality of your product, you get back as much as you you put in, anyone can make it or break it with a little or alot of good/bad luck. your working with skills so remember, if you or staff cannot cut/perm/etc... the way people like there hair done then they might not come back.,





think of a plan and be ready to have it be really slow for your first year. keep in mind that its a recession and people are not spending on things like they use to.





good luck
You might want to consider mobile beauty therapy with competitive prices. There is often a demand for these.
its okay...
