Oooh I would LOVE to try this!
I have a ton of beauty secrets...but I guess my most important one is to wear really thin liquid black eyeliner on my upper eyelid. I wear it everyday and it really just makes my eyes look awake and amazing. I literally just don't look complete without it! And make sure to use liquid or the line will come out too thick.
My favorite beauty tip to make me feel like a pampered star is 2-3 times a week I take the normal amount of my facial cleanser that I use to wash my face and put it in the palm of my hand. I then add 1 tsp of regular oatmeal to it and mix it together. Then I gently wash my face with this mixture and the oatmeal in with my cleanser gently exfoliates my skin naturally and whisks away all the dead skin so my new fresh skin can glow all day! I have been doing this regularly for months now and it works for me! It costs me nothing, but makes my skin feel fabulous! Thanks so much for the opportunity to enter because I really want to try out the Dermablend foundations, especially for the holidays to keep me looking flawless!

I know this might seem obvious but the best beauty secret is drinking lots of water and watching what kinds of processed foods you eat. About a year ago, I started thinking about this seriously and my skin is tons better! I also use lots of moisterizer about twice a day!
I recently discovered a wonderful beauty secret. It's easy, inexpensive and worked great.... Cut an orange in half and use it as a loofah on dry elbows.
Like most women I am constantly trying to get my foundation flawless. I have tried the brushes, nearly every brand, even aerosol application... nothing made it flawless. One day I decided to blend my foundation with my protective serum, the effects were amazing. I follow it with a light-weight finishing powder, and the rest of my cosmetics. I now get tons of compliments of the look of my skin :)

Invest in good make up brushes AND clean your make up brushes often! You can pour a dab of purifying shampoo in the palm of your hand and swirl your brush around to get a good lather going, then rinse and let dry.
My Beauty Secret: Knowing that with every day, I'm a tiny step closer to my dreams. That's what makes me positively gorgeous.
My Beauty Secret: Translucent loose powder.
I Use this to set all my make-up and it last from 6:30AM till I get home at the end of the day.
Over lipliner, eyeliner and blush...Makes it stay on all day. LOVE it :O)
My beauty secret is Olive Oil, pour a cup of olive oil in the bathtub and enjoy beautiful soft skin!
My beauty secret would have to be use sunscreen and reapply when out in the sun. Even in the winter I apply sunscreen beffore putting on my makeup.
My favorite trick is to take a lip pencil that is maybe 2 shades darker then my own lips and fill in the whole lip before applying lip stick. It makes the lip stick last way longer!!!
My favorite beauty tool is my eyelash curler, and my favorite beauty tip is to blast it for a few seconds with the heat from a hairdryer, or run it under hot water for a few seconds (making sure to dry it off first!) to help lashes keep their curl! A few swipes of mascara and they're are all set!

I have tons of things I do. The main one is to make sure you use a microdermabrasion on you face about once a week. Every day you use sunscreen and lots of moisturizers day and night on your face, neck and I even do it on my chest. Make sure you use deep moisturizer on your eyes. Before I put on my makeup I moisturize my face and eyes and wait a minute then put a concealer on then my foundation. I then put on a thin line of eyeliner then apply the color of my eye shadow and follow up with Mascara and lipstick. I also have a dry foundation that if my skin is real pale to tone it up a little. Love my makeup
My beauty secret: meditation. Having a calm demeanor and attitude helps wonderfully in reducing those awful lines. I turn 50 next month and am constantly mistaken for someone in her early 30s at the very oldest. If I do start to develop lines again (finals week will do that to a woman), I take a little bit of Strivectin neck firming cream and mix it with my serum for a few days.
My best beauty secret would be my white eyeliner. Before putting on foundation, I use the white pencil to cover up any dark spots or redness. Then, when foundation and powder is applied, my skin looks smooth and ready for a closeup!
I think the best (and easiest) beauty secret is to just drink a lot of water each day. Try to start with at least 32 ounces a day and work your way up. Also, try not to leave make up on before going to sleep. With that said, sleep itself is very important. Try to get at least 8 hours of disturbance-free beauty sleep!
I have a few favorite beauty secrets: the first one - aloe :) I love my aloe - & not just on sunburns. I think it can be a great tool year round to help your skin stay healthy. The natural element makes it even better. My second beauty secret: water! I try to drink a lot of water, especially since I drink a fair amount of coffee. I try to keep a full glass all day long at my desk. My third favorite beauty secret: SLEEP. Nothing beats looking your best than waking up refreshed. :)
It's so hard to find a foundation match, I would love to see if this product works!
Tip: For great skin all year round, I apply face and body lotion right after I get out of the shower. I never have dry skin!
My beauty secret is Freeze 24/7's Freeze and Go cream that makes my eyes instantly brighter! The best part is you can use it over foundation so I whip some under my eyes and along the crease on my brown and WHOOSH! Smooth, bright face!
Once a week I deep cleanse my face using the Oil Cleansing Method. I use a mixture of castor oil and olive oil to take away the gunk on my face. I also use the EcoTools facial sponges to assist me in achieving that deep cleanse. After doing so my face feels tight and smooth!
my best beauty secret is two-fold - moisturize from the outside and hydrate from the inside! use an spf15 or better moisturizer daily and make sure you drink plenty of water!! it keeps my skin fresh at 49!!
I always always always have to have mascara. Without it, my eyes disappear into my face. Sunscreen everyday definitely helps too!
I really don't use much makeup but I found that drinking water really helps! Staying hydrated keeps me looking fresh and awake!
My secret is to keep it simple. I know that if I complicate my routine I will not do it consistently. So I wash my face with Dove for Sensitive skin and use a daily moisturizer.
