50 Beauty Tips that every Woman should know.

Thank you for all the love on the Zoya post guys, the comments really make me smile! :) I loved checking out and following new blogs! Best wishes x


I have changed my blog Url to FemministReflections ! Think it's more unique than just my name. The old blog url BenishKhan will redirect you to this one. Thought, I do Beauty Tips today that really benefit me & can help other people as well. Most, I have learned on my own and others I have researched. I wouldn't recommend something I haven't tried myself :) Let's get started ..

1) If you're under 21, I would not recommend wearing foundation at all times. Instead, wear concealer more. Foundation tends to age you out.

2) Instead of washing your brushes or changing brushes, try this new product called Color Switch Duo by Vera Mona. It cleans your brushes and removes all the color simply by rubbing against it (Will do a post on this soon.)

3) Be positive and smile more often. Thinking negative leads to stress which causes breakouts, you wouldn't want bad skin.

4) Stop drinking Coke-o-Cola. I know it's hard, but Coke has too much sugar and it's really unhealthy - limit yourself to it. Too much alcohol consumption and too much salt is bad too.

5) For longer lashes, apply mascara on your falsies as well! It makes them super long and more natural.

6) White eyeliner on the bottom of your eyelid makes your eyes pop in the morning and looks less red.

7) Don't wash your hair everyday, it gets rid of the natural oil. I would recommend 2x a week.

8) For color treated hair: Apply conditoner twice in your hair and leave it on for 2-3 minutes.

9) For Oily hair: Do not use conditioner on your roots, as it will make it more oily. Just apply on the ends more.

10) For quick teeth whitening, brush with a small amount of baking soda. Don't overdo it as it can be harsh.

11) Even if you're young say 17-21, don't avoid eye creams or eye oils. It will help you in the long run.

12) During summertime, avoid heavy makeup. It will just make you look like a racoon because of the hot weather and the oilyness it comes with it.

13) If your face gets oily, do not re-touch your makeup. Just use blotting papers from Sephora(My personal favorite is lavender)

14) When I do not have my blush on me, I use lipstick as my blush.

15) Always apply chapstick or vaseline before applying lipstick, it goes on more smoothly(Recommended by Amanda Byne's MUA).

16) For fuller lips, apply concealer as the FIRST thing, then fill the outline of your lips with a lip liner.

17) Always use primer before applying makeup.

18) Always wear sunscreen when near the sun or in the sun. Even if it's winter, I would recommend a 15+ sunscreen in winter and a 50+ in the summer (My personal favorite is Neutrogena's)

19) Natural Remedies work amazing for your skin, try Thayers Natural for smooth, radiant skin. It helps minimize pores as well.

20) To smooth out the hair on your ponytail, a toothbrush helps.

21) A shimmery gloss just on the center of your lips, top and bottom make your lips stand out.

22) Coconut oil works well for dry skin.

23) Before washing your hair, leave your hair overnight in Vatika's Oil or Olive Oil. Wash it off in the morning, your hair will be super shiny then.

34) Olive Oil works as a life saver to remove heavy eye makeup, or to smooth out your skin after waxing.

35) Don't wear foundation and concealer on your eyelids, it will just create a bad crease.

36) To fill in eyebrows, eyeshadow works great - it's less harsh. Avoid most eyebrow pencils.

37) Have a healthy diet, drink atleast 8 cups of water a day. It helps clear up skin and makes it radiant.

28) Try Ceaser Salad for lunch or Dinner, it has the right amount of grilled chicken and salad to make the perfect balance. Yummy too.

29) Use a milk cleanser to wash your face.

30) Avoid flat irons, it really damages hair. Use natural air or a blow dryer.

31) Always wash your makeup off before sleeping, this is extremely important. You don't want wrinkles and breakouts.

32) To make makeup last longer, use hair spray on your face at an arms distance.

33) A thin liner brush is better than a thick one, it will go on more smoothly.

34) Always replace your makeup, know the expiration dates. Mascaras work better sometimes even when they expire! (Beyonce said so too)

35) Castro Oil and Nioxin help in achieving longer and healthier hair.

36) Use eye shadow made for your eye color. If you have lighter eyes, use brighter, darker eye shadows so it contrasts. If you have darker eyes, use neutral colors such as brown and maroon.

37) Around your eyes, use your ring finger as it's the most finger with less pressure and your eye area is quite sensitive.

38) Kohl and Kajal eyeliners are probably the most darkest, and blackest eyeliners out there.

39) Don't pump your mascara too many times, it puts air in it resulting in clumped eyelashes.

40) Thicker eyebrows are trending, they're more natural.

41) Have a new pimple, but a big day tomorrow? Dab a little toothpaste on it and leave it overnight.

42) Clean out your beauty tools, if you don't often - it can cause bacteria, bad skin, and disease.

43) The best way to take a selfie of your makeup is with good lighting, you don't always need an expensive, professional camera. Some MUA's like Amrezy use an iphone 5 and good lighting. Take pictures in front of the bathroom light, and never in sunlight - just before the sun hits.

44) Don't wash your face more than twice a day, it gets rid of the natural oils that way resulting in flaky dry skin.

45) Use Bio Oil overnight on your face regardless of your skin tone, trust me, it's amazing.

46) For callused feet, soak your feet in water with soap and salt. It helps. Also, use a pumice stone.

47) When wearing foundation, go one shade darker than your own.

48) For more defined cheekbones, use bronzer on your cheekbone and a highlighter above it.

49) For longer lipstick wear, blot a couple of times on a tissue.

50) For soft wavy curls, leave your hair overnight in a bun or big braids.
