Do you have a stock pile of beauty products that could win the war on U.G.L.Y (I’ll leave that to your imagination), single handed? I know I do. Hey I am in this business, and I am still suckered into buying things that I don’t really need. It’s like we are trained from the cradle to the grave that the fair maiden with the largest product collection wins.
Beauty is really pretty simple. It is in the eye of the beholder, void of boundaries, and not a ton of unnecessary products.
I would define it as: a state of being that starts from the inside out, but I’ve noticed that we generally pay more attention to our outside. So let’s start there. Here are a few suggestions to help simplify your beauty routine.
- Milk Cleanser- Guinot and Simone France make really awesome milk cleansers.
- Mineral Makeup- I am new to the world of mineral makeup. Actually I avoided it because I thought it was messy, and that the color didn’t last very long. That was until I was discovered by Niko Papadatos of Niko Cosmetics while shopping at America’s Beauty Show (it’s a funny story). They’ve silenced the naysayer in me. Way to go Niko Cosmetics.
- An eye treatment system. Guinot’s youth boost for eyes offers a 14 day solution to those pesky fine lines around your eyes.
- A good mask goes a long way, and Aveda’s intensive hydrating mask is no exception.
The days of complicated beauty routines are long gone. What products do you use to simplify your life?
