my fav masks at home:

aha + bha liquid mask by the ordinary: a literal overhaul of my pores. it’s refining and helps reduce texture and hyperpigmentation. 1-2 x/week

korean modeling mask: i use this after doing everything in my routine. it’s super cooling and smooths my skin out. the low temp of the mask reduces flushing of my skin and helps the steps in my routine absorb better. 2-3 x/week

Hair:

Hair Care ❤︎︎

Wash Routines:

curly textured: wash and condition every 2-3 weeks, deep condition every 1-2 weeks

straight: wash and condition every 2-3 days, deep condition every 2-3 weeks

Styling ︎❤︎︎

Hair should have a style everyday! At home hairstyling is limitless and really depends on your taste and lifestyle. The everyday woman does her own her once every 1-4 weeks using natural hair products, heat, or other tools.

Professional Stylists:

hair is styled every 1-3 months: uses heat to straighten or curl, extensions to lengthen and add volume, shears to maintain/attain a shape and length

trim ends: every 6-8 weeks

hair color: touched up roughly every 6-8 weeks (depending on how fast your hair is growing and how fast your color will fade)

Silk Press:

after a clarifying wash and deep conditioning, natural hair is straightened using flat iron and/or pressing comb, then usually curled in feathers or pin curls to preserve the style

lasts 3-4 weeks depending on maintenance

preserved by wrapping hair at night, keep hands out of hair, and using a wide toothed comb only

can be further styled with different kind of rollers, or with pin curls

Braids:

afrocentric hairstyles typically done to protect hair while maintaining beauty

lasts 3-8 weeks

styles include knotless braids, faux locs, stitch braids, french braids, etc

Extensions:

hair added to natural hair to enhance length or volume

can be done at home with patience and proper materials

sew-in extensions: (my personal fav) 1-2 months

your natural hair gets braided down flush to your scalp and the bundles are sewn on by the wefts in a flat pattern typically with a section of hair left out to cover the wefts $100-600

microlinks: up to 4 months

i-tip extension is added to hair using micropliers, clippers and loop tool. takes far longer than most extension methods but looks the absolute most natural $500-1000

tape-in extensions: up to a year, touch ups every 4-6 weeks

medical grade tape is used to attach extensions to small sections of hair $200-400

clip-in extensions: 3-6 months

extensions are clipped on by the wefts. the hair itself can last up to six months, but it’s not recommended to sleep, shower, or swim with the extensions in $50-100

Natural Styles:

all last roughly 1-2 weeks at most. allowing hair to completely DRY is crucial for these styles. your natural hair can be further changed in styles like buns, puffs, etc once dry

natural hair essentials: scalp oil, leave in conditioner, detangling brush, wide tooth comb, curling cream, styling gel, edge control and edge brush

wash n’ go

wash and detangle, then use leave in conditioner to keep hair moist. oil on the scalp and ends is recommended for growth and healthy ends

bantu knots

a traditionally african style where the hair is cleanly sectioned (usually parted in a cute pattern) and twisted into knots. style can be worn just like this or taken down for curls

braid/twist out

a specific pattern of curls is achieved after hair is twisted or braided with curl preserving products. end result depends on how big your twists or braids are

roller set

hair is sprayed with water and curl cream applied before roller of your choice is added. hair is left to dry usually overnight for springy well formed curls

Brows and Lashes:

Brow Shaping ❤︎︎

in salon or at home

Waxing - every 3 weeks

Threading- every 2-3 weeks

Razor Shaping - weekly

Brow Enhancement ❤︎︎

Tinting - monthly

can be done at home or by pro in the salon

Microblading - every 1-3 years + annual touch ups, exclusively professional work

cosmetic tattooing using a manual tool with nearly invisible hair-like needles to inject pigment in brows to create your desired brow look

Lash Enhancements ❤︎︎

*done exclusively by professionals

Lifts - every 6 weeks

basically a perm for your lashes to curl them semi-permanently for lashes to appear longer

Lash Extensions - new set every 6-8 weeks, fill ins every 2-3 weeks depending on quality and style

false individual strands of lashes glued to natural lashes to create semi-permanent length and/or volume

lash baths: wet lashes and apply a small amount of gentle cleanser or a “lash bath” to lashes. cleanse lashes and eyelids for about 10 seconds. hold a towel under your eye and use a nozzle bottle to flush soap and bacteria from lashes then dry with a disposable lint free towel. finish by brushing your lashes with a spoolie. daily.

Lash Styles:

Classic: one lash on each fan, thin lashes

Volume: fluffier lashes with more lashes on each fan

Hybrid: uses classic and volume lashes to make an alternated look

Russian: volume lashes made with very thin individuals, 5-6 extensions per natural lash, fanned out look

DIY Lash Extensions - lasts about a week (sometimes longer)

lash fragments or individual wisps are glued either under the lashes or on the lash line. KISS Falscara is a product that makes this concept simple and easy

Nails:

all these services can be done at home with the proper materials and KNOWLEDGE

Classic Manicure ❤︎︎

every 1-2 weeks

nail service that consists of soaking hands in warm soapy water then drying them. nails are trimmed, filed, and buffed. cuticles are pushed back before applying nail polish (base coat, color, top coat), then finally cuticle oil is applied.

nails can be enhanced with rhinestones, glitter, or charms and attached with uv gel or nail glue

my fav styles are pink, cream, white, black and any french tip using those colors

Pedicure ❤︎︎

every 2-4 weeks

sister to the classic manicure, but can be upgraded depending on materials. steps are similar to manicure, except feet are scrubbed and exfoliated before feet are washed and dried to apply nail color

regular polish, acrylic, or gel can be used on toenails

Gel or Shellac Mani ❤︎︎

every 2-3 weeks

same process as the classic manicure, but traditional nail polish is replaced with uv base coat, gel or CND Shellac polish, then uv top coat that’s cured in a UV or LED lamp

longer lasting and more strong/3d than classic mani and is typically removed by soaking in acetone

Apres Gel-X Nails ❤︎︎

every 2-3 weeks

my personal fav at home nails using the artme yoko matsuda nails. after doing a classic mani sans polish, you apply a dehydrator and primer to prep nail for gel. then you apply builder gel to your natural nail and cure. then you apply that same builder to the nail extension after etching it using an electric drill or acetone. marry the gel to your nail and cure. then just shape to your liking and top with uv top coat. tutorial here

Acrylic Nails ❤︎︎

every 2-3 weeks, nails are fully grown out after 6 weeks

manicure done with liquid monomer and acrylic powder to build and extend natural nail, then polished with color or just a top coat if desired

Russian Mani ❤︎︎

every 4-5 weeks

essentially a gel manicure, but more invasive. the eponychium is snipped away so polish can be applied more closely and flush to the cuticle. this aids in visuals and longevity

service is seen as risky because the skin is more susceptible to fungal or bacterial infection. this is actually how i do my nails at home.

Body:

Bathing ❤︎︎

2x daily

self explanatory, we all know how to bathe. i have other posts that talk about my shower and bath routines.

use a gentle cleanser then a scented body wash to complement perfume and smell fresh all day.

if needed, you can use body soaps with actives like aha, bha or retinol to exfoliate or treat skin at night

exfoliation - 2-3x/week. using scrubs, loofahs, bath brushes, etc.

Hair Removal ❤︎︎

shaving - 2-3x/week

waxing - every 3-5 weeks

sugaring - monthly

ipl device - a device that uses light therapy to slowly destroy hair follicles and unwanted pigment in skin. i use mine after every 5-6 shaves but i could really use it more often.

Vajacial ❤︎︎

1-2x/month

a “facial” for your lady area

the esthetician will first wax, then cleanse and apply an enzyme exfoliant. then they extract any blackheads or ingrown hairs from the area before applying a soothing mask usually in the jelly form.

Moisture and Hydration ❤︎︎

body cream or lotion - daily right after bathing to hydrate skin

body oil - daily to seal in moisture and protect skin from debris and dryness

masks - weekly to address particular skin concerns

ex. when i was having eczema flare ups on my back, i used a dead sea mud mask every 1-2 weeks to help treat it

done at home or at spa

glycolic, clay, mud, salicylic, etc.

Enhancement Procedures:

the goal is to look younger and balance facial features. all these services are exclusively done by professionals usually in a medspa and are widely considered luxury.

Botox ❤︎︎

every 6-8 months; between brows, smile lines, outer corners of eyes, etc

discourages muscle movement to reduce wrinkles

Lifts ❤︎︎

lasts about 10 years; face, neck, brow, eyelids

skin is lifted to desired look, then excess skin is removed

Fillers ︎❤︎︎

every 6-12 months; under-eye, lips, jawline, wrinkle sites, cheekbones

injects acids (usually naturally occurring) like Hyaluronic Acid and Calcium Hydroxylapatite to add volume to your face

Body Contouring ❤︎︎

every 2-4 months until desired results are achieved

non invasive liposuction to achieve desired physique

CoolSculpting - cryolipolysis freezes fat cells for the body to the metabolize and and remove them

SculpSure - essentially the same as CoolSculpting, but uses heat and laser technology to destroy fat cells

Laser Hair Removal ❤︎︎

every 5-6 weeks; bikini, underarms, legs, arms

touch ups done every 1-2 years

hair growth is inhibited by exposing follicles to light at frequencies that kill them

Building the Regimen 🗒️💕:

when making appointments with your “glam squad” you can stagger your services by week depending on what’s being done. for example you can get your mani and pedi done one week. then your facials, brows and lashes another week.

Things to Keep in Mind 💭💞:

these frequencies won’t be the same for everyone depending on personal wants, budgets, etc. but will most likely land somewhere in the ranges i gave. if you need touch ups or redos any sooner than i mapped out, then the service most likely was of poor quality.

anything done at home may or may not be up to the level of detail and longevity as salon or spa work. if you see yourself doing the majority of your beauty maintenance at home, this can save money but may end up taking more time than professional services. so it’s a give and take.

Scent 🕯️

Tf2 mercs scents

A/n: I was gonna say something about Medic shaving but then I got flash banged by that one picture of him with the hairy chest.

Scout

He took the term “cologne king” and ran with it.

He puts on like 10 sprays of cologne every morning guys it’s bad

Tries to cover his sleep stank with cologne every morning but it’s very much there

He does use deodorant because he’s not THAT stinky (tho spy is the one who forces him to wear it)

“Scout, did you put on your axe this morning?”

“ughhhh I don’t wanna 😒”

Uses 2 in one because he’s lazy asf. He’ll only use the good stuff if it’s from spy.

He doesn’t rlly care for face care, he uses the same bar of soap he uses to wash his ass and it works fine surprisingly

His rooms smells kinda musky but it’s subtle,it mostly comes from his mattress that he’s been using since childhood (which he barely fits on)

Heavy

Have you’ve ever been inside the car of a guy who works out frequently? Yeah

He smells musky asf, he does sweat a lot so it makes sense!

He has a subtle Cinnamon smell to him, no one knows if it’s from something he uses or if it’s natural

If you ever give him a hug god rest your soul cuz all your gonna be huffing in that day is his scent.

Def uses Dr squatch deodorant cuz he’s classy like that. Wont use cologne unless it’s a gift from someone

Spy

You’ll never catch this man being stinky, EVER.

He uses the good shit, Le Male Elixir, showers every night, and every now and then has a Smokey scent to him.

Scout begs and begs for his cologne but he’s a gatekeeping king so he won’t budge.

“SPY PLEASE JUST GIMME THE NAME”

“Absolutely not.”

“CMON-SPY WHAT ARE THE TOP NOTES? WHERE DO YOU NORMALLY SHOP??”

His shampoo has no scent + he doesn’t really care for buying the expensive stuff cuz his hair is always covered anyways.

His skincare is pretty good, uses face wash serum and moisturizer. No anti-aging stuff tho, he personally thinks aging is a privilege.

Pyro

If you can smell these two photos, you’re smelling pyro

Medic

He just smells like a hospital, but when finishing a mission he smells like straight blood.

His hospital smell mostly comes from the latex gloves he has to wear, the blood smell is from surgery’s or brutally killing enemies. (Obv)

Definitely doesn’t mind getting blood on him, so if you complain about the smell to him he’ll shrug it off.

Cologne wise he’d use something minty, he’d only ever use it when going somewhere fancy. Other than that he sees no use for cologne.

He’s quite high maintenance, so he never stinks nor does he necessarily smell good. He just smells like.. medic.

Demoman

You’ve ever took a whiff of milk to check if it’s expired? Yeah.

Sorry but he does not gaf, there’s a puke stain on his shirt from like a week ago + he uses pretty cheap cologne.

Def uses Irish spring cuz I said so, it fits him.

Would have a sleep stink but getting a sleep stink would come from a bed, lord knows he’ll make it to his bed before passing out drunk.

He doesn’t shave, he uses child safe scissors to cut his beard 😭 someone help him.

Engineer

ITS BAD.

but it’s also like, hot?

He had that garage workshop scent, he’s also sweaty cuz of course he is. For god sakes he’s in his 50s and doing garage work he shouldn’t be doing that he should be sitting down and having a fucking glass of water.

No cologne for him, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, that being all the sweat he collects from making shit he probably shouldn’t be making !!

Showers at night cuz that’s when he gets all the sweat off, he takes those piping hot showers that would burn off a normal persons skin off.

Sniper

He hangs around piss jars all day, I’ll let you do the rest.

No sleep, no cologne, just him. He just smells like rain and spoiled milk.

His camper van smell interesting to say the least, it’s not necessarily clean so it just smells like straight coffee, not the good kind.

He’s not that musty! He is quite hygienic.. in a way

He had a skincare routine, and spends half and hour in the shower cuz he ends up dozing off after a while <//3

He does NOT play about that skincare routine btw, if he sees a pimple he’s tracking down what he used to cause it.

Once he does he’ll use it as target practice lol

Soldier

This guy smells like 1000 things at once.

If you took a whiff of him he’d smell like straight dirt at first, but then it somehow transfers to a wet dog kind of smell, with a hint of oil.

*need a cologne of that

If you offer him deodorant/cologne he’ll deny it. He says that the way he smells is how god intended

His helmet smells FOULL, if you take the tiniest sniff you’re gonna pass out.

[violetsandshrikes]

Are there any skincare products you do recommend or do they all suck?

• I like buying any cheap hyaluronic acid serum I can find and using it under my moisturiser - it’s a humectant, I get a dry nose/forehead (especially if I’ve been out in the field) and it’s pretty safe across skin types. If you ever get some, do a patch test, don’t get one over 2% (irritation/dryness/redness risk increases) and make sure you seal it in with moisturiser so it’s actually doing anything

• Reliable moisturiser

• Find a sunscreen you like, and research what SPF you realistically should be wearing depending on where you are in the world. I have a specific face one that’s a lighter cream than normal because really thick creams of my face drives me insane. Make sure you actually read the instructions and are using it right (for example, mine says apply 20 mins before sun exposure). Don’t forget your ears.

• Vaseline or any alternative is useful the most robust option for your mouth. A lot of other products have added scents and chemicals that can irritate your lips and make them flake/peel. At night, I put an oil then Vaseline for hydration (currently using Ordinary borage oil bc cheap but effective). During the day I wear Blistex lipbalm that’s SPF 50+ and give it 10-20 to set before I put a thin layer of Vaseline over top

• I used to be a really bad skin picker, and I would get outbreaks from it - Chlorhexidine wash has been a lifesaver (we also use chlorhexidine in my house to decontaminate bc most of us worth with animals/plants/conservation fields so use as a hand wash after work + cleaning work clothes/overalls/etc)

Note that none of this is about anti-ageing: I just like to avoid cracked or chapped skin (especially since that makes it easier for nasty things to get in) and skin cancer is very common in my family (the sun down here can get very rough very quickly)!

Reveal Your Bollywood Glow: Unveiling Celebrity-Inspired Skincare Secrets.

This blog is going to be all about Indian & bollywood inspired products and skincare tips. If you also want a blog separately about Indian natural and authentic skincare or hair care I'll surely make it. 🫶

Know Your Skin Type : Identify your skin type - whether it's oily, dry, combination, or sensitive - to tailor your skincare routine effectively.

Cleanse Like a Star : Use a gentle cleanser like Cetaphil or Neutrogena to remove dirt and makeup and a oil cleaner is a must if you wear makeup daily. Opt for micellar water for a quick and effective cleanse on busy days. (But I don't really recommend it).

Exfoliate for Radiance : Incorporate a mild exfoliator like St. Ives Apricot Scrub or The Body Shop's Vitamin C Glow-Revealing Liquid Peel to slough off dead skin cells and reveal glowing skin. And my personal favorite coffee scrub from The Bombay shaving company. Don't exfoliate more than twice a week.

Hydration Is Key : Use a hydrating toner such as Clinique Moisture Surge Face Spray for an instant boost of hydration or toner + mist from pilgrim works like magic (my fav 😭).

Targeted Treatments : Include a serum with ingredients like hyaluronic acid (for hydration) or vitamin C (for hyperpigmentation) if you are under 17 or 18 like me don't use vitamin c or if you want to use in very less %, I use 2% kojic acid for my uneven skin tone from pilgrim, it's very begniner friendly. (Always consult a dermatologist for your skincare don't go around seeing videos on insta and YouTube believing them). I recommend Minimalist if you want chemical bases serums.

If you are above 23 or 25 Incorporate a retinol-based cream like RoC Retinol Correxion Deep Wrinkle Night Cream for anti-aging benefits. (Got this tip from mumma for y'all 😭✨️)

Sun Protection Essentials : Always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher, such as La Roche-Posay Anthelios Ultra Light Fluid, to protect your skin from harmful UV rays. More affordable and effective sunscreens from brands — dot and key, aqualogica, Dr. Seth and wish care.

Overnight Nourishment: Use a hydrating overnight mask like Laneige Water Sleeping Mask to replenish moisture while you sleep. Incorporate a facial oil like The Ordinary's Rose Hip Seed Oil for added nourishment and radiance.

DIY Treatments Inspired by Bollywood:

- Try a turmeric, gram flour and yogurt face mask inspired by Priyanka Chopra for glowing skin.

- Use aloe vera gel like Deepika Padukone for its soothing and hydrating properties. (MY fav bolly actress btw 😭❤️)

Lifestyle Tips for Healthy Skin : Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day people are not stupid that they are going around telling you to drink water, IT'S A MUST!. Incorporate antioxidant-rich foods like fruits, vegetables, and green tea into your diet for overall skin health.

Some of my fav brands (mostly available in india) : dot and key, Foxtale, pilgrim, minimalist, st. Botanica, organic harvest and aqualogica!

Fav brand released by a bollywood actress: Hyphen by Kriti Sanon, their lip balm can even beat Rhode's lip balm istg- and their sunscreen 🔛🔝.

Channel your inner Bollywood diva and achieve a radiant, flawless skin with these skincare tips and product recommendations. Let your skin glow like a star!

Night Skincare Routine 🌙

A night skincare routine is essential for maintaining healthy skin as it allows your skin to recover, repair, and rejuvenate while you sleep. Here's a basic night skincare routine to follow <3

Makeup Removal/Cleansing

Start by removing any makeup using a gentle makeup remover or micellar water. Ensure all traces of makeup are thoroughly removed from your face.

Cleansing

Wash your face with a gentle cleanser suitable for your skin type (dry, oily, combination, sensitive, etc.). Gently massage the cleanser onto your skin in circular motions and rinse with lukewarm water. Exfoliation (2-3 times a week)

Exfoliate

Exfoliate your skin to remove dead skin cells and unclog pores. Use a chemical exfoliant (like AHAs or BHAs) or a gentle scrub. Be cautious not to over-exfoliate, as it can irritate the skin.

Toning

Apply a toner to balance your skin's pH levels and remove any remaining impurities. Toners also prepare your skin to better absorb the products applied afterward.

Serums/Treatments

Apply targeted serums or treatments based on your skin concerns. This could include vitamin C serums for brightening, hyaluronic acid for hydration, retinol for anti-aging, or niacinamide for pore refinement. Pat the serums gently onto your skin.

Eye Cream

Use an eye cream to moisturize and treat the delicate skin around your eyes. Dab a small amount with your ring finger and gently pat it around the orbital bone.

Moisturizer

Apply a nourishing night cream or moisturizer suited for your skin type. Night creams tend to be richer and provide intense hydration. Massage it into your skin in upward motions.

Face Oil (Optional)

If your skin tends to be on the drier side, you might consider applying a facial oil to lock in moisture. Choose oils like jojoba, rosehip, or argan, and apply a few drops, pressing them gently onto your skin.

Lip Care

Don’t forget your lips! Apply a hydrating lip balm or treatment to keep your lips moisturized overnight.

Additional Tips

Sleeping on a clean pillowcase can also contribute to healthier skin. If you're using any prescription treatments or specific skincare products, it's best to consult with a dermatologist for personalized advice.

Consistency is key in skincare routines. Stick to your routine for a few weeks to see noticeable improvements in your skin.

Remember, everyone's skin is unique, so it's essential to tailor your skincare routine based on your skin type, concerns, and any sensitivities you may have. If you're unsure about certain products or steps, consult a dermatologist or skincare professional for guidance.

The Best-Kept Celebrity Beauty Secrets for Ageless Skin

When it comes to flawless, ageless skin, celebrities often seem to have the magic touch. Their glowing complexions and youthful looks make many of us wonder what their secret is. The truth is, while genetics play a role, many celebrities rely on certain beauty practices to keep their skin looking youthful and radiant. In this article, we’ll unveil some of the best-kept celebrity beauty secrets for ageless skin, and you’ll see that with the right approach, you too can achieve a glowing complexion.

1. Consistent Skincare Routine

One of the most common celebrity beauty secrets is maintaining a consistent skincare routine. Celebrities know that taking care of their skin daily is key to keeping it in top shape. This routine typically includes cleansing, toning, moisturizing, and applying sunscreen.

Cleansing: It’s crucial to cleanse the skin every morning and night to remove dirt, oil, and makeup. This helps prevent clogged pores and breakouts.

Toning: Toning helps balance the skin’s pH levels and preps it for the next steps in the routine.

Moisturizing: Moisturizing keeps the skin hydrated and prevents it from becoming dry and flaky.

Sunscreen: Sunscreen is non-negotiable. Many celebrities credit their youthful skin to daily sunscreen use, which protects against harmful UV rays that cause premature aging.

2. Hydration Is Key

Celebrities often emphasize the importance of staying hydrated, both inside and out. Drinking plenty of water throughout the day keeps the skin plump and radiant. Many stars also use hydrating face masks or serums with ingredients like hyaluronic acid to lock in moisture and give their skin a dewy glow.

3. Facial Massages

Facial massages are another celebrity beauty secret that helps keep the skin looking youthful. Massaging the face stimulates blood circulation, which can enhance the skin's natural glow. It also helps to relax facial muscles, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Celebrities like Meghan Markle have shared their love for facial massages, often using tools like jade rollers or gua sha stones. These tools help to depuff the face, lift the skin, and improve lymphatic drainage, resulting in a more sculpted and youthful appearance.

4. Using Natural Oils

Many celebrities swear by natural oils to keep their skin smooth and hydrated. Oils like coconut, rosehip, and argan oil are popular choices. These oils are packed with essential fatty acids and antioxidants that nourish the skin and help maintain its elasticity.

For example, Miranda Kerr is a fan of rosehip oil, which is known for its anti-aging properties. This oil is rich in vitamins A and C, which help to brighten the skin and reduce the appearance of scars and fine lines.

5. Exfoliation

Regular exfoliation is another key to achieving ageless skin. Celebrities often use gentle exfoliants to remove dead skin cells and reveal fresh, glowing skin. Exfoliating also helps to improve the effectiveness of other skincare products by allowing them to penetrate deeper into the skin.

Celebrities like Jennifer Aniston have mentioned using gentle exfoliants, such as those with lactic acid or fruit enzymes, to keep their skin smooth and radiant without causing irritation.

6. Healthy Diet

A healthy diet plays a significant role in maintaining youthful skin. Many celebrities follow a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins. These foods are packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that help to protect the skin from damage and promote a healthy complexion.

For example, leafy greens like spinach and kale are full of vitamins C and E, which are essential for skin health. Berries, nuts, and fatty fish like salmon are also great for keeping the skin looking youthful and radiant.

7. Adequate Sleep

Getting enough sleep is crucial for maintaining ageless skin, and many celebrities make it a priority. During sleep, the skin repairs itself, and new cells are formed. Lack of sleep can lead to dull, tired-looking skin and the appearance of dark circles and puffiness.

Celebrities like Gwyneth Paltrow emphasize the importance of getting 7-8 hours of sleep each night to keep the skin looking fresh and rejuvenated.

8. Professional Treatments

While many celebrities rely on at-home skincare routines, they also turn to professional treatments to maintain their ageless beauty. Treatments like facials, chemical peels, and laser therapy can help to improve the texture and tone of the skin, reduce fine lines, and address any specific concerns.

For instance, many celebrities opt for regular facials that include microdermabrasion or oxygen therapy to keep their skin smooth and glowing. These treatments help to exfoliate the skin, boost collagen production, and improve overall skin health.

9. Stress Management

Stress can take a toll on the skin, leading to breakouts, dullness, and premature aging. Many celebrities practice stress management techniques like yoga, meditation, or deep breathing exercises to keep their minds and bodies in balance. By managing stress, they can maintain clear, glowing skin and prevent the signs of aging.

10. Positive Mindset

Finally, a positive mindset is an underrated but powerful beauty secret. Celebrities often talk about the importance of self-love and confidence in their beauty routines. When you feel good about yourself, it shows in your skin. Smiling, staying positive, and embracing your natural beauty are all part of the secret to ageless skin.

Conclusion

Achieving ageless skin doesn’t require a miracle; it’s all about adopting the right habits and sticking to them. By following these celebrity beauty secrets, you can maintain a youthful, glowing complexion for years to come. Remember, consistency is key, and taking care of your skin from the inside out will lead to lasting results.

Example Text

干性皮肤 要注意补水、补油、防晒、防止损伤、补充胶原蛋白. Dry skin Pay attention to moisturizing, supplementing oil, SPF, preventing loss, supplementing collagen. 中性皮肤 算是比较完美的肤质，要注意防止损伤，保持现有状态

Normal skin Considered a rather perfect skin type, you need to pay attention to preventing loss, maintain your current skin status.

油性皮肤 注意清洁、控油、补充水分和保湿

Oily skin Pay attention to cleansing, oil control, moisturizing and hydrating. 混合性皮肤 根据不同肤质区域分开护理，T区注意控油，V区注意补水保湿和防止损伤. Combination skin Treat combination skin according to different skin areas separately, pay attention to oil control within your T-zone, pay attention to hydrating and moisturizing and preventing loss in your V-zone. 敏感性皮肤（不是过敏性皮肤） 由于这种肤质保水力差，皮肤屏障受损，所以在护肤时要注重修复、抗炎，防止各种刺激和损伤，防止日晒。建议用一些温和无刺激的产品，以及含有镇静修复成分（维生素E、神经酰胺等）

Sensitive skin (not irritated/allergic reaction skin) Since this skin type doesn't hold water well, the skin barrier is damaged, thus you should pay attention to repairing, anti-inflammation, preventing various irritants and losses, as well as sun damage during skincare. It is recommended that you use gentle and non-irritating products that have soothing ingredients (vitamin E, ceramide etc.)

不化妆也要每天卸妆 -> even if you don't put on make-up, you still need to use make-up remover/oil cleanser everyday

千万不要用任何含有酒精的护肤品 -> under no circumstances use any skincare products containing alcohol

爽肤水主要作用是对皮肤二次清洁 -> the main function of toner is to double-cleanse your skin

敷面膜刺痛是因为皮肤缺水 -> the pain/tingling from applying face masks is due to your skin lacking moisture

洗澡时毛孔扩张，污垢更容易深入毛孔将其撑大 -> when you bathe, your pore enlarge, pollutants and more can easily penetrate through your pores which can stretch your pores

收敛水可以收毛孔 -> astringent can reduce pores

衰老是从25岁才开始 -> aging starts at age 25

涂眼霜长脂肪粒是因为太油 -> developing milia from applying eye cream is due to excessive amounts of oil

护肤品分男女 -> skincare products are gender-separate
