Top 10 beauty fixes

January 20, 2009

Sometimes you find yourself in odd beauty problems, like a bad hair day, or sudden eye circles. Some of these common problems and their solutions are discussed in this article.

Solution for a bad case of ‘hat’ hair

If you know you are going to wear a hat, then avoid using styling products. You can try to spray your hair with a little water and tousle your hair till all the ridges disappear. Back combing gently from ends to roots is also a good idea. If nothing works, then simply gel them and slick them back.

Unfreeze your frozen hair

Sports people encounter this often in cold winter months. Avoid even touching your hair until it thaws, because you could end up even breaking it.

Solution for static hair

A leave-in conditioner works best for static hair. If however, if is too late for it then try a bit of anti-frizz liquid. Running a fabric softener sheet over your hair has also been seen to help.

Solution for aching feet

You can soothe your aching feet after a long day with some essential oils. Massage a few drops of eucalyptus or almond oil into your feet. Move your thumbs in small circular motions. Rolling your feet on a bunch of marbles will help to ease the knots, which come because of wearing high heels.

Solution for the case if you have applied too much powder or foundation

Spray a little water on your face and lightly remove it with a sponge or tissue.

Solution for dirty hair

You realise your hair needs a wash but you do not have the time. You can start by dusting with powder or cornstarch and brushing. For short wavy hair, you need to dampen the front section of the hair and divide it into four sections. Dry it gently and you will have fresh curls.

Keeping your hair upside down, spritz or gel the undergrowth and blow-dry. You will add new life and movement to your hair.

If at the office, use a soda can to wrap your hair around it. Spray a little perfume on.

A big black headband is the solution if nothing works. It will make you look chic while controlling and smoothening your hair.

Solution for uncoloured roots

You can use a chalk colour of the same shade. However, do not try this with crayons. You can even try using mascara on the roots.

Solution for tired eyes

You can try using navy mascara instead of black or brown. If do not have it, you can use any mascara rubbed into blue eye shadow. Usually, softer shades like taupe and pink work well for tired eyes, compared to stronger tones.

Solution for under-eye circles

A concealer, at least half a shade lighter than your normal skin tone, will work wonders. You can even mix a bit of blue eye shadow with moisturiser, followed with foundation.

Some tips for protecting hair

Do not leave any shampoo in your hair. It will make your hair dull and itchy.

Your hair will need trimming every six weeks.

Hats are a great accessory in summer and provide protection from the sun.
