We all get run down easily these days. Our busy work schedules and social lives can very quickly get in the way of taking some time out for ourselves. And all this pressure and stress takes a toll on our skin, especially on our face. You don’t need to watch yourself age before your time. All you need is to fit ten minutes into your day to work on your skin routine. Want to know how to keep your skin glowing? Here are my five top tips to brighten up your face! Brighten up tired eyes A fresh face can be ruined by tired red eyes. If you forget to look after your peepers, you could be spoiling all the effort you put into your face! The best way to relieve sleepy eyes is to prevent them from getting too tired in the first place. If you wear contact lenses, wear them for as little as possible. When you do wear them, make sure it’s a brand that lets your eyes breathe through the material, like acuvue lenses. If you don’t wear lenses, you can help your eyes by applying a daily eye cream.

Got a real girly-girl who loves all things beauty to buy for? These five gifts are sure to be right up her street, whether it’s hair, makeup or nails that she loves pampering the best. A Beauty Box The average girly girl loves a beauty box. Delivered straight to her door each month, what is inside is the beauty box is usually a surprise. This means that every month you’re giving her a brand new surprise gift! If subscribing her for a whole year is out of your budget, don’t worry. Most companies offer one-off packages, or three months subscription periods. She might just find her new favorite beauty product!

This is why a hit makeup eraser makes a good gift. It is a cloth that removes even waterproof mascara with only water.

Y’all know how much I use to love my Beauty Box 5 subscription. I don’t know why Mother Nature had to mess with my STUFF!! Mother Nature is kinda a bit&*  Unfortunately, Beauty Box 5 is no longer around. In July of 2017 Hurricane Henry hit Texas, Beauty Box 5 was one of the businesses that suffered. That makes me so sad. Each and every month 5 products arrive in my mailbox nestled inside a perfect little turquoise box.  What I love the most about BB5 is that every month is different. Every month introduces me to products that I doubt I would have ever found on my own. Let’s dig in to February’s “Birthday Sweets” themed box! Manna Kadar Beauty 3in1 Shadow, Highlight & Blush This little gem is a highly pigmented rose gold color in Fantasy. This is so highly pigmented that a little goes a long way!!  Accent your lips to your brow bone. This color will easily take me from winter to summer.
