Simple Beauty Secrets

Kelly, over at Kelly's Korner, is hosting Show Us Your Life Friday: Hair and Beauty Tips. You can view all the fun tips and secrets HERE! I would just like to say that Kelly's Korner is my ALL TIME Favorite blog, and this is my first time to participate in a Show Us Your Life Friday and I am so excited!!! :-) I really don't have that many "tips" because my "beauty routine" (if you call it that) is very simple. To start with...I wash my hair with Herbal Essences Color Me Happy. To answer your question, no I do not color my hair...it's all natural :-) However, I just LOVE the way that Color Me Happy smells, so I use it!


To style my hair I just blow dry it and then curl it with a curling iron and brush it out. Nothing fancy, and that's okay with me :-) Another thing is that I don't use any hairspray...I'm allergic. I know, who's allergic to HAIRSPRAY of all things?! That would be me!


Not the greatest picture of me, or my hair, but it's the most recent! For my skin health I wash my face with Aveeno Ultra Calming Foaming Clenser. I have very sensitive skin if you didn't already gather that from the hairspray allergy ;-)

I LOVEEEE this cleanser, if you have sensitive skin I HIGHLY recommend it! In order to moisturize my skin I use Olay's Beauty Fluid, which is a classic moisturizer and I just recently started using it. I don't have dryness issues except in the winter.

This mositurizer works wonders on dry sensitive skin. I also love the smell! My other big skin "secret" is to drink lots of...you guessed it, WATER! :-) It really does help everything from blemishes to dry skin. Your body just works better overall when it's well hydrated!


I also find that my skin is clearer and I have less breakouts when I am training for a race and running regularly! Exercise is a wonderful thing! So there you have it, my simple hair and beauty "tips" :-)

"The Lord doesn’t see things the way you see them. People judge by outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.” 1 Samuel 16:7

Mallorie - first of all, thanks for visiting my blog today! As far as I know, none of my husband's family are from TX. I did know that there was a Belton, TX. Mostly his family is from NC.
Also - I love the color of your hair. I am also very sensitive to hair/skin products (and pretty much everything else in the world). Thanks for all the great tips!

Holly said...

I agree with you about drinking tons of water! :)

Janelle said...
