2. How to Keep Your Skin Fresh all Day


 To keep your skin smooth, healthy and fresh during the day do this the night before:
  • Wash your face with rosemary tea.
  • Make this face mask: crush an aspirin and add a teaspoon of honey. Mix well and apply for 15 minutes.
  •  Then use a facial steamer with a few drops of rosehip, almond or jojoba oils.
  • After apply a facial mask made with blended strawberries, honey and natural yogurt.
  • Apply a vitamin peptide serum.
  • I like to use an overnight facial mask. The Body Shop  Drops of Youth Sleeping Facial Mask is one of my favorites. Just apply a generous amount and let in sink into the skin. I do it on the neck and decollete too.
  • In the morning rub an ice cube all over the face and neck, including the eye area. 
  • Apply a vitamin C serum.
  • Apply your usual moisturizer. My all time favorite is Estee Lauder Daywear Antioxidant Creme. I love it because it protects from external factors and leaves the skin hydrated and with a healthy glow.

3. How to Intensify Your Suntan


Use the following natural peel in the body to intensify and prolong suntan and get rid of dead cells.
