44 timeless beauty tips

Gorgeous Hair
1 Camouflage roots by zigzagging your part rather than making it straight. February 1981

2 Brush hair from roots to ends nightly. This distributes natural oils throughout the shaft and gives hair a healthy sheen. October 2005

3 Be direct when telling your hairstylist what you want, and bring photos from magazines of styles you like. April 1971

4 Doing your hair color yourself? Don’t make too drastic a change. Stay within one or two shades of your natural color. October 1955

5 Comb wet hair like the pros: Hold a handful at a time and work from center to ends, then scalp to center. March 1963


Beautiful Brows
6 Soften skin before tweezing by dabbing with a cotton ball soaked in warm water or cream. April 1963

7 Tweeze in the direction the hair grows. April 1971

8 Don’t change the place where your brows peak and never pencil the whole brow. Instead, only fill in holes. November 1976

9 Use only the side of a sharpened brow pencil—not the pointed tip—so as not to draw a hard line. January 1938

10 For unruly brows, apply hairspray to an old toothbrush, then brush brows upward and outward. September 1992


Bright Eyes
11 Treat your eye area gently. This is the most delicate part of your face. Cleanse with care; blot, never rub. September 1961

12 Reduce puffy eyes by splashing with cold water or applying a cold compress (ice cubes in a washcloth): 15 seconds on, 15 seconds off. October 1987

13 When you put on mascara, don’t lower your chin—that’s how mascara gets on your lid. April 1971

14 Get eyeshadow to stay in place by priming lids with moisturizer and foundation. October 2011

15 Always use your ring finger to apply moisturizer or concealer to the eye area. It puts the least amount of pressure on the skin. November 1990


Pretty Face
16 Don’t touch your face unnecessarily. Breakouts can be caused by your own fingers. November 1963

17 Apply cream or cleanser by lightly pressing upward—never down. The delicate skin sags easily enough in time. April 1942

18 For the best color match, test foundation and powder either on your face or neck (the inside of your wrist is too pale). May 1990

19 Use foundation, not concealer (which is lighter than your skin color), to cover up redness or blemishes. February 1998

20 Rouge should be well-blended far out on the cheekbone; circles of rouge don’t look good on anyone. February 1938


Lovely Lips
21 Get lips soft and smooth by using a damp, warm washcloth at night to rub off the flaky dry bits; follow with a coat of lip balm. September 1998

22 Ease the evening switch to a redder or darker lipstick by applying it over and blending it into your daytime color. April 1992

23 To make lipstick last longer, allow it to set for a few minutes after applying, blot lips with tissue and dust them with powder, then apply another coat. April 1963

24 Cheeks feeling flushed? Put on a bold color lipstick; a neutral shade will only make red cheeks stand out. April 1969

25 For lipliner that glides on, warm it up first by pinching it with your fingertips. February 1998


Glowing Skin
26 The best time to apply lotion is right after a shower or bath, when skin is still damp. January 2006

27 When drawing a bath, scatter bubbles or crystals directly under the faucet before turning on the water, but drop in perfume oil while the tub is filling. November 1959

28 Beautiful skin starts from within. Include lots of vegetables, fruit and water in your diet. September 1961

29 Overdo it with your perfume? Dab rubbing alcohol with a cotton ball on your skin. The alcohol will cut the scent without altering it. September 1992

30 Microwave lotion for 5 seconds to soothe dry winter skin. February 2009


Smooth Legs
31 Improve circulation in your legs and lower the risk of unsightly veins by elevating your feet when resting. August 1942

32 Wait until after your shower to shave. The steam softens hairs for smoother results. July 2010

33 Don’t use creams that contain heavy fragrance or alpha hydroxy acids on freshly shaven legs. They’ll sting and cause a rash. July 1998

34 When applying “liquid stockings” [or today’s self-tanner], don’t forget the back of your knees, which are often missed. July 1945

35 Waxing your legs? Pull skin taut before applying the wax to make it easier to remove the strip in one clean motion. Remove leftover wax with a cotton ball dipped in baby oil. October 2011


Model-Like Hands
36 Shape nails with an emery board, filing sides toward center—never straight across—and rounding off edges. April 1944

37 What works for your face works for your hands. Remove age spots with facial brightening cream. October 2010

38 The fast way to remove nail polish: Hold cotton saturated with polish remover firmly on your nail for a few seconds to let it start working, then wipe nail clean. January 1944

39 Apply polish starting at the pinky, working toward the thumb to avoid dragging your hand across wet nails. April 1990


Happy Feet
40 To counteract dryness, massage feet with a lanolin-based lotion, kneading it deeply into your instep, then massage soles, heels, top surface and around nails. March 1959

41 Before using a pumice stone or foot file to remove a callus, be sure to soak your foot in warm water for at least 5 minutes. Follow with a little foot cream. June 2004

42 To prevent ingrown nails, trim toenails straight across, not down into the corners. March 1942

43 Relieve swollen feet by soaking them alternately in hot water (for 3 minutes), then cold water (for 1 minute), for a total of 15 minutes. April 1963

44 Use fresh pineapple or kiwi skins, which contain bromelain (a meat tenderizer), to exfoliate heels. Rub the fleshy part over heels for 5 minutes, then rinse, dry and moisturize. February 2009
