How to : Wrap Your Extensions at Night

There are several ways you can care for your hair before bed. Which in turn will make for a short and quick morning routine. All you'll have to do is take it down and go, which means no heat-styling with curling and flat irons.

Wrap It:
 Depending on the length of your hair, you can either begin at the nape of the neck and wrap in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction. Use a vent brush or boar bristle brush, along with your hands, to smooth your hair and mold it to your scalp as you work your way around.

Pin Curls:
 Simply take a section of hair, comb out any tangles, and wrap the hair into a circle close to your scalp. Tuck the ends into the middle of the curl and pin it with bobby pins or flat clips.

Braid It :
Do you have long and/or natural hair? If so, try pulling hair back into a single braid and secure the end with an elastic band.

Roll It:
 If you don't want to roll your entire head, you don't have to. Instead, pull hair back into a loose ponytail and place four or five rollers in the ponytail.

How to: Keep Your Skin Moisturized

Do you have dry skin most of the time and have tried several remedies to combat this problem? Here are some tips on how to improve the moisture in your skin.

Don’t buy a cheap body wash. Good body wash products normally contain essential oils such as: coconut oil, olive oil and jojoba oils that help keep moisture.

Dry your skin properly. Some people are often in a rush in the morning and don’t dry properly which means your skin will dry out during the day.

Shea butter and essential oils based cream are ideal. These type of cream bases help keep your skin healthy and moisturized.

To ensure your skin is smooth and healthy, every week or 2 weeks give your skin a treat. Use body scrub or a body mask occasionally to wash off dirt but keep the moisture. Doing this can help keep your skin moisturized, smooth, and soft.

How to: Properly Remove Make-Up

Do you feel like you still  a layer of make-up on once its been removed? Well here are a few tips that may help you achieve that clean feeling once make-up has been removed and you have cleansed your skin. 

Mascara and eye-liner are the hardest to get off since the skin around the eyes is sensitive. Cotton balls leave fibers behind, so use a cotton pad with an oil based remover. Close your eyes and hold them over your lids and lashes for about ten seconds to give the remover time to dissolve the waxes before wiping.

Your daily cleanser should be sufficient to take off foundation and blush. Massage the cleanser over your face and let it sit for 15 seconds, and don't forget your hairline, under your chin, and around your ears. Then wipe with a wet, white cotton washcloth, so you can really see that all the makeup is gone.

A cotton pad soaked in liquid or cream makeup remover should take off most lipsticks. You need an oily formula only if the lipstick is long-wearing or intensely pigmented.

How to: Apply False Lashes

Have you ever spent hours in front of the mirror trying to apply fake eyelashes, only to end up with them sticking out at strange angles; or worse fall off completely after a few hours? Here are a few steps to help prefect your application. 

Measure the length of the lash to make sure it fits your eye shape. If the strip needs to be cut to fit, snip the outer edge completely off with small nail scissors.

Take both edges of the lash and bend inward to create a “C” shape, and hold for a couple of seconds. That’s the best way to take out the straightness and ensure it molds to our curved eye shape and stays put without the corners lifting up

Apply a high-quality glue such as DUO Eyelash Adhesive for lasting. If you have a steady hand, you can squeeze straight to the lash.

 Aim for the base of your natural lash line, right on top of your real lashes, not touching the eyelid at all.
