How to get rid of blemishes

What Are Blemishes ?

Blemishes are skin imperfections like acne-marks, pigmentation marks and dark spots.  Blemishes are usually caused by oil-clogged pores and stress.

1.Prevention:The best way to get rid of blemishes is to prevent the skin blemishes from occurring in the first place. Do not prick acne / pimples.

2. Daily Skin Care: Wash your face daily with a mild cleanser which is good for solving your skin problems like too much of oil, dryness, blackheads. Avoid using harsh scrubs as they worsen acne.

3. Avoid too much of sun exposure: Sun rays irritate acne and it can cause blemishes. To mitigate damage from the sun, apply a good sunscreen with at least SPF 15 on your exposed skin areas whenever you go out in the sun.

4. Aloe Vera: Aloe Vera gel is a time tested remedy for getting rid of skin blemishes on face and other areas. You can add 3-4 vitamin E capsules into Aloe Vera Gel to make this remedy more effective to remove skin blemishes, including facial blemishes.

5. Tomato Juice: Apply tomato juice to skin pigmentation marks, a natural remedy to remove skin blemishes from your face and else where.

6. Almond Oil: Almond oil is another natural home remedy to remove skin blemishes on face and from other body areas.

7. Carrots: Apply mashed carrots paste on skin blemishes or alternatively apply carrot juice to get rid of skin blemishes from your face and else where.

8. Calamine Lotion: Rub gently calamine lotion on your face or wherever the skin blemishes are. Calamine lotion helps in absorbing excess oil from the skin and thus results in to removing the skin blemishes, including facial blemishes. Apply calamine lotion as frequently as needed.

9. Honey, Lemon Juice and Turmeric Powder: Make a paste of a little bit of honey, lemon juice and a bit of turmeric powder. Apply this paste gently over the skin blemishes daily.

If skin blemishes still persist, please consult a dermatologist. Thanks.

Finding the Perfect Colour Combinations for your Skin

This is very easy but people still get it all wrong. 1st of all, do you have a warm skin tone or a cool skin tone?

You can find out using lipsticks one orange pinkish (coral) and hotpink, if the coral blends in better you probably have a warm skin stone, if hotpink blends in then you have a cool skin tone. It can be complicated but once u know what suits you, fashion becomes very easy, @least to avoid buying something&wearing it once.

Warm skin tones will glow with colours like orange yellow green brown

Cool skin tones will glow with colours like blue purple gray blue-green 

Another test to find out your skin tone

Foundation test: Remove all makeup. Go to a department store or drugstore that sells a brand of foundation makeup in shades that are coded as warm, neutral, or cool. Hold the testers up to the wrist or face to compare tones. Stripes of makeup may be applied as well. A perfect tone match is not important, so try a few shades in each of the three groups. Look for the ones that appear to harmonize with the natural skin tone. (If the neutral shades are the best matches, other tests should be conducted to confirm skin tone. Even seemingly neutral skins are not perfectly so and will fall slightly into either the cool or warm cacategory.

Metal Test : Remove all fingernail polish and jewelry. On one hand, place a silver or silvertone ring, bracelet, or wristwatch. On the other hand, put on a gold or goldtone ring, bracelet, or wristwatch. Hold up one hand at a time and look at how the metal blends with the skin. On a cool skin tone, the white metal (silver) will be flattering, while the yellow metal (gold) will clash. On a warm skin tone, the gold will be the more flattering of the two.

One of the keys to looking great every day is building a wardrobe that enhances one's natural colour. When carefully chosen clothing colors are worn, they give a healthy glow to the skin and blend in with a woman's overall appearance instead of drawing attention to themselves. The right colors in clothing can actually decrease the amount of makeup that is needed.

I hope this was very helpful, for personal consultations regarding fashion/makeup please feel free to start a chat with me via bbm 79C9886C or via email makeupbyrey@gmail.com.

Wearing two different patterns#fashionlover


I know the regular part of fashion says "do not wear a pattern top on a trouser with pattern.

There's another part of fashion that says if you can pull the hard off easily, do not stick to the rules, (like the rules were created for non-fashion Icons). Well even when filtered the combination still rocks.
With this kind of outfit jewelry on the low& you can gamble with your makeup, my red matte lipstick by office#flawless.

If you are having problems choosing the right top for your jeans down to make up and jewelry to go#madeeasy#freeconsultation#add79C9886C

Tips for oily skin

I have really oily skin on my forehead nose(T-zone basically) which is practically my whole face*lol*.

I use oil mattifier by marykay. I apply it faithfully b4 concealer/foundation, and you should go for products that are oil free, came across LA girl water based concealers & they are fab.

You can also try oil control lotions for dark skin and also dap your face with blotting paper from time to time, it absorbs oil without disturbing your make up.

The success to this is trying different combination of products to know what works for you best.
