1001 Little Beauty Miracles | Be Still

Its little beauty miracles time, this is about mascara. I love applying mascara to be honest. I haven't done one of these for a long while but I am back to normal now! 
 
374 - BE STILL
Don't be tempted to apply mascara or liner if you're on the move, in a car or on a train, however late you are. Its impossible to make an even job of it, however steady your hand.
 
I have always thought this when bloggers tweet saying they did there makeup on the train or something. HOW?! I can just about perfect liner sitting down doing it let alone doing in on something moving. I suppose you will have to make it perfect before you do it on something moving. Maybe I need to put the practice in before it! I love the eyeliner look but I cant do it, I suppose we all learn.

1001 Little Beauty Miracles |

I haven't posted 1001 little beauty miracles for a while, I have been pretty busy. But I thought today as I am not as busy I will post.
 
270 - FLATTEN OUT ROUND EYES
Make like a cat by flattening round eyes. Apply a liner only to the top lashes from the inner to the outer corners of the eye to give it more elongated appearance
 
I really wish I was a lot better at doing eyeliner, I don't know why but I use a kohl eyeliner which I feel quite hard to use. So I am slowly practising because I hate wasting things I buy so I am going to give it ago. Even if I am made to look like I have a black eye, but I would rather learn first at how to do it.

1001 Little Beauty Miracles | Safe Landings

As its that time of year when a lot of people start going on holiday. So here we go lets have a look at what the tip for this week is.

961 - SAFE LANDINGS
Post-flight skin is usually tired and dehydrated, so using lots of make-up to make yourself look better won't help. Instead, apply moisturizer and smudge cheeks with colour-enhancing cream blush or gel bronzer. Use an oil or moisturizer containing vitamin E, which will help beat sagginess and give skin a plumper feel.

This is such a good idea, I wouldn't have thought about this to be honest. I think that this is such a cool thing as well. I may decide to do it if I go on holiday any time soon which it doesn't look like I will be to be honest which is very sad.

1001 Little Beauty Miracles | Blow Away Blushes

Its beauty miracles time, I hope you enjoy this one as its about blusher.
 
229 - BLOW AWAY BLUSHES
To apply the perfect amount of blusher or bronzer to cheeks, load up the brush and then tap or blow off the excess. This will ensure you get ample coverage of colour without looking like a painted doll.
 
I am sure we have seen them people that have so much makeup on and it doesn't look right on them especially because it is a different colour. I think I like this tip because it would be good as I do feel sometimes I do accidently put a lot of blusher on which isn't the best is it. But this tip will be really good to deal with.

1001 Little Beauty Miracles | Boost Circulation

Here is the 1001 little beauty miracles. This is one about your legs and circulation.
 
673 - BOOST CIRCULATION
Sometimes, 'big looking' legs may not be fat, but appear heavy because of bad circulation. Put your legs and feet up above hip level for half and hour a day to help fluid flow. If you suffer from varicose veins, this will also help reduce the strain on blood vessels.
 
This is something I need to do, the amount of mornings I wake up barely moving my legs because they ache so badly. I am sure everybody has really achy legs and you need to rest them because they are in so much pain. But this is something I would need to do.

1001 Little Beauty Miracles | Brew Up A Storm

Its 1001 little beauty miracles time for you all, this is a very creative one.
 
316 - BREW UP A STORM
For oily skin, a brewer's yeast mask can help tone without drying out. Mix a teaspoon of brewer's yeast with enough natural yogurt to make a loose, thin mixture. Pat this thoroughly into the oily areas and allow it to dry on the skin. After 15-20 minutes, rinse off with warm water, then cool and blot dry.
 
Not going to lie, but this sounds so easy to do. I would love to do something like this because sometimes my skin gets really strange especially around the cheek area where it goes really patchy. So this is something I would love to do.

1001 Little Beauty Miracles | Tool Up

Its 1001 little beauty miracles time, lets have a look what this weeks tip is.
 
677 - TOOL UP
Use wooden or plastic self-massage tools, such as balls, rollers and bongers, while you're in the bath to promote relaxation. The added benefit of the warm water helps to make massage more effective especially if you're trying to unknot tense muscles.
 
Now I really love this tip, I have been getting a really sore back for some reason. It is getting really annoying, so I may use this tip because my lower back has been hurting, as I have been standing all the time at work and crouching down.

1001 Little Beauty Miracles | Cling On

Here is 1001 little beauty miracles. I hope you enjoy this one. This seems like a very small post, I do apologise.
 
722 - CLING ON
Wait at least 45 minutes after painting your toenails before putting on closed-toe shoes, but if you absolutely must go out, wrap your toes in plastic wrap before slipping on shoes to avoid smudges.
 
I have to admit, I am terrible when it comes to putting nail varnish on toenails. I don't really know why. So this would be quite a good tip to help with. As I'm just not very good when it comes to this. I think I'll use some toe separator things but I think they may come in handy.

1001 Little Beauty Miracles | Use A Face Treatmemt

Its 1001 little beauty miracles time! One day I will review this if I use a tip.
 
965 - USE A FACE TREATMENT
Instead of accepting that flying will make your skin look bad, fight off dullness by using a face treatment while you're on board, particularly on your cheeks, which are often the first areas to show tell-tale signs of dehydration like fine lines.  

This is something I have never done because I suppose I don't really wear that much make-up that doesn't bother me. But I am sure that a lot of people that are going away this year on holiday! I think this is something I have seen my favourite youtubers Zoe(Zoella) and Louise(SprinkleOfGlitter). They always  talk about how you shouldn't wear make-up when you are on flights as it really dries you out.

1001 Little Beauty Miracles | Don't Hoard Foundatiion

I was having a look through my big tips book and I thought I find a product that I haven't spoken about for a while, so I thought I would find a tip for you.
 
192 - DON'T HOARD FOUNDATION
Throw foundation away if it starts to look or smell different, or if the ingredients start to separate. It may be out of date, which means it will have lost some of its texture and efficiency and will not glide on well.
 
I have to admit I'm not a foundation hoarder because I actually only own one. I am using that only at the weekends as I have to get up so early which makes me have no time to do my make-up. So I use it at the weekends. I do like foundations but as I am so pale I haven't really got a lot of shades that even match me.

1001 Little Beauty Miracles | Widen With White

This is an eye tip! I think that these tips are going, but I am yet to try anything of these tips yet. I don't know why but I am very lazy with whatever I do.
 
279 - WIDEN WITH WHITE
To give your eyes the appearance of being wider set, line the inside of the bottom rim of your eyes with a soft white eyeliner pencil. This will also give you a fresher, younger look.
 
This is a cool look, BUT I don't think I would be able to pull it off in the slightest. I don't even know how to use eyeliner as I completely fail at it. So this tip probably isn't any good, but you never know I might give it ago if I'm feeling pretty odd.

1001 Little Beauty Miracles | Vial It In Your Bag

Here is a 1001 little beauty miracles, this is for a fragrance, I have to admit I am very lazy when it comes to fragrances. I really don't know why, but I do like them they are very good products.
 
574 - VIAL IT IN YOUR BAG
Invest in a small via and decant some from the bottle if you want to carry scent around with you in your handbag, or chose a small travel size. If you take the whole bottle with you, and expose it to light or heat, the scent may go off prematurely.
 
I am defiantly going to do this, because I always want to have a little top up of perfume and I always enjoy a different perfume. I am going to sort my handbag out actually and may be do a 'what's in my bag post.' for you and this may have a little feature in it.

1001 Little Beauty Miracles | Lighten Up With Lemon

I have got a 1001 little beauty miracles for you, this is a really good one I wouldn't have ever thought of something like this to be honest.
 
714 | LIGHTEN UP WITH LEMON
Lighten discoloured nails with a whitening scrub containing mild abrasive or with a mild abrasive or with a remover containing lemon juice to bleach out colour. Ask your local manicurist or chemist for product recommendations.

 
I have quite yellow nail sometimes especially if you wear a really bright nail polish which takes for ever to get off. I mean I love painting my nails so much. I think this is probably quite hard to find in normal shops so looking in a chemist would be much easier especially a big chemist as they seem to have everything stocked up in there.

1001 Little Beauty Miracles | Be Lavish With Lashes

This one is about lashes, I love putting on my mascara, I don't know why but there is something so good about it. I love it, so here we go lets have a look..
 
9O1 - BE LAVISH WITH LASHES
Create lush lashes by using an eyelash curler and applying two thin coats of lengthening mascara. Don't overwhelm your lashes with too many coats, especially if your big moment is in the daytime, because your lashes can look clumpy and there's more chance of fall-out. Waterproof mascara is long-lasting and wont run if you shed a few tears of joy.
 
This is something I should learn because I NEVER curl my eyelashes I usually forget and cant be bothered, but I am so going to try this out because I think this is always something really good to do. As lashes look boring with out being curled I feel.

1001 Little Beauty Miracles | Roll Out The Barrel

Here is another 1001 little beauty miracles - this time it is about hair.
 
548 - ROLL OUT THE BARREL
Small to medium round or barrelled brushes work best on shorter hair, and for creating flick ups, while big barrelled brushes are often favoured by hairdressers for blow-drying medium-length to long hair because they hold more hair and won't cause knots. Extricating long hair that has been caught up in too-small barrel brushes will cause pain and tears.
 
This is something I have done, I have very long hair and I got my brush completely stuck in my hair. It was actually very sore when I did this and I did cry because it was so sore as I had to rip some of my hair out because it was so painful.

1001 Little Beauty Miracles | Go Loose For Rollers

I have another 1001 little beauty miracles. I love doing these because I learn so much as well as you guys, that's pretty good.

539 | GO LOOSE FOR ROLLERS
Never wind rollers too tightly, or you could end up with hair loss and damage as the hair is stretched, torn or pulled out from the root. Remember, hair contracts when drying, so if you're putting them on wet hair, give yourself a bit of extra room.
 
I have no idea how to use rollers, so in all honesty this really doesn't bother me. I find doing my hair really boring, I don't know why but I just hate it. So this tip is really no use to me whatsoever. But I hope you enjoyed it though.

1001 Little Beauty Miracles | Keep It Simple

Here is another beauty miracle for you, I hope you like this.

130 | KEEP IT SIMPLE
If you suffer from irregular pigmentation, don't overcomplicate your skincare. Avoid harsh sponges and exfoliating rubs, and don't use toner which can exacerbate pigment differences.


I have noticed how I have got irregular pigmentation, to be honest I had no idea that was before I looked it up, Yes that is bad. I think I may have that on my forehead as they are different colour patches. But as I have only just read up on it I would have no idea what it was in all honesty. But I think I may carry out some research about this.

1001 Little Beauty Miracles | Keep Hands Young

Here is another 1001 little beauty miracles, this one is about your hands. Yes a bit of an odd one for you too be reading. But that is what I like about this book is that this is always doing something strange.
 
634 - KEEP HANDS YOUNG
Take care of your hands before they give away your secrets. Hand skin is frequently neglected, but its often the real tell-tale sign of age. Invest in a rich hand cream day and night to keep your hands looking young and tender.

This is something I defiantly didn't think off and to be honest I am pretty sure that I would just ignore it. But I think I will go and get doing this and using some hand cream. I have to admit I do have a huge range of hand creams and body lotions that never ever get used.

1001 Little Beauty Miracles | Place Your Order

This is another one of my 1001 little beauty miracles. This is one of my favourite posts because I just love finding out about new beauty treatments because its always great to just find out new things as always. So here we go lets have a look.
 
542 - PLACE YOUR ORDER
For medium-length to long hair, you're best off using a chunky, barrelled brush but often these aren't available in shops. Ask your hair stylist to order you one for a professional approach at home.

I have got very long hair and it can get annoying brushing. I just use a general brush because I don't really care to be honest when I am brushing my hair. I think maybe reading this I think it would really help. But of course I wouldn't buy an expensive hair brush because I just think that is pretty silly of course spending all that money on a hair brush. Of course, that is my opinion and nobodies else's.

1001 Little Beauty Miracles | Soothe Eyes With Cucumber

I have got another 1001 little beauty miracles for you, this is something I am sure you can all use this time as some of the tips in this book are pretty odd.
 
266 SOOTHE EYES WITH CUCUMBER
Place a slice of cucumber on each eyelid for 10-15 minutes to allow the high water and mineral content of the cucumber to be absorbed into your delicate eye skin.

This is something I am defiantly going to try because it really makes me angry at how my eyes are so dark especially when I get really tired. But I am pretty sure that happens to a lot of people. I really think that this might have to start happening maybe few times a few or other a two period.
