Daily Beauty Rotuine by Dorammy(f): 12:09pm On Oct 04, 2010 |
Hi Ladies, i would need some help with a proper everyday beauty routine. what should be the first thing every lady should do every morning as soon as she wakes from sleep. ranging from excercise, drinking water, brushing of teeth, beauty product application (like cleansers, masks, wash and all that). which one should come first? during the day, what?(i mean any special touch up during the day? like extra apllication of SPF cream, how abt removing make up with a make up remover and reapplying) then in the evening? when u come back from work, what should be the first? cleanse make up? or shower first then remove make up? please if u have any tips please share. Any easy home made beauty tricks? thanks. |

I do not know what's right or not but I will share mine. I have been doing it, and so far so good. My beauty routine is pretty simple, I try to keep it simple so I can stick to it. First I shower in the morning, brush my teeth, wash my face with a facial cleanser, after shower, I use a moisturizers for my face and a body lotion for my body. I used to use nivea body lotion for both my face/body but lately I have started breaking out so I use simple light moisturiser for my face, moisturize my hair, comb it and style it the way I want. Doing the day, I do not even wear makeup, just lipgloss and I am ready to go. when I am going for a party/special accession I wear minimal makeup. sometimes I try to have 30 minute workout, but I am a lazy backside when it comes to workingout. I do not stick to it unfortunately Night time is the same repeat, shower, wash face, brush teeth etc: Weekly I apply a facial mask, soak my feet, file my nails, deep conditioner my hair and thats abt it I visit the salon like every three months to do my hair professionally and other stuff. now that is simple |
Re: Daily Beauty Rotuine by Dorammy(f): 12:53pm On Oct 04, 2010 |
please remember to say the name of the products u use. i dont particularly have a special morning ritual. i wake up, say my prayers and straight to the bathroom. if i remember i use a face wash (neutrogena two in one Mask and wash) if i dont? i just bath apply any available cream (have been using so white for over a year now, its nice but, so now i dont have a cream, still deciding on what to try next.) and off to work. there is this tip a lady i met at a fashion designer's shop shared, its kinda "grossy" but its so perfect, very effective. all u need egg white garlic mix the egg white with the ground garlic and apply to face. leave till its very dry before u wash. u ll be surprised. if u can do it everyday? u ll be wowed! trust me on this one. Note: its "hot" meaning that it has a lil menthol or something, dont know a better name to describe it, |

ikeobidi:say what I thot guys do not like all these stuff Are you a David Deckham or what @Dorammy I'm the one in the white. My suggestion for you, go for them easy cream like cocoa butter or even skin success but stay away from all those harsh African cream. Try different kinds of products till you get what work for you. |

Re: Daily Beauty Rotuine by InkedNerd(f): 9:09am On Oct 06, 2010 |
Here is my daily routine: Exercise: Yoga 5-6 days a week [sometimes 7 if I can], running in the morning, and volleyball. Crunches when I wake up in the morning/at night before bed. Body Care: Soaps: I shower morning and night with black soap, paraben/sulfate free soap. The brands I use are Dr. Bronners, Trader Joe's Tea Tree Soap, South Of France soaps natural soap, Nubian Heritage soaps [but only when I run out of soap and I'm desperate], Chandrika Ayurvedic bath soap, and sometimes I use some soaps from Lush. Lotions/Oils/Butters: I don't really use lotions. Most of the time, I used oils and body butters. I use jojoba oil, vitamin e oil, sweet almond oil, and may other oils. I make my own body butter with shea, cocoa, and mango butter and some of the oils that I use. There are other butters that I use but those are the main ones. Oh and by the way, I never towel dry my body. I just allow my body to absorb the oil/body butter while its absorbing the water on my skin. Face: In the morning I was my face with the same soap that I use on my body. For moisturizing my face, I use use aloe vera, shea butter, jojba oil [not too much though]. Sometimes I mix vitamin e oil and aloe vera together and rub it on my face. At night, I exfoliate and moisture. Hair: I'm more into using natural methods of caring for my hair. For example, I don't use shampoo or conditioner and I make my own hair styling products. To wash my hair, I use black soap or castile soap. Then to condition, I use avocado and honey or extra virgin olive oil. For moisturizer, I use shea butter, and for styling it varies depending on what I want do with my hair. All in all, I try to keep it as natural and as simple as possible. It a lot cheaper and healthier than buying products that are loaded with tons of chemicals. As the seasons change, the products change as well. Oh and I forgot to mention, I drink lots of water and I'm a veg head so I eat lots of fruits and veggies. |

Inked_Nerd: oh oh. someone is a fitness buff. can i be your yoga buddy |
Re: Daily Beauty Rotuine by InkedNerd(f): 7:02pm On Oct 06, 2010 |
Nah, I'm not buff. I'm just nice and toned . Honestly, I don't usually do well with yoga buddies . They always manage to slow me down during my workouts . |
Re: Daily Beauty Rotuine by Nobody: 7:03pm On Oct 06, 2010 |
ikeobidi:thats good man you are my kinda guy. But I seriously do not know much abt men skin care. Any one help a bro out. |
Re: Daily Beauty Rotuine by ikeobidi(m): 7:59pm On Oct 06, 2010 |
Any takers? |
Re: Daily Beauty Rotuine by Dorammy(f): 11:47am On Oct 07, 2010 |
ikeobidi: Well, dont know much abt guys but i do not that everyone (male or female) ought to look good esp if u are light skinned. as a guy dont use bleaching stuff esp if u are light skinned cos its so irritating to see a guy with bleached skin. you can moisturize ur body. i know a friend (guy) that cleanse his face with his sisters stuff and he looks so muaaah! so when the sister got married and moved out he bought those products mostly neutrogene acne wash (he doesnt have pimples o! but it helps dry out oil from his face) Try to avoid sun exposure and use a moisturizer with sunscreen. get a facial wash and always wash ur face and u ll glow. good luck. if i get names of other products ll post ok? |
Re: Daily Beauty Rotuine by ikeobidi(m): 12:55pm On Oct 07, 2010 |
Dorammy:@Dorammy: Bless u, sista! I already use facial cleansers(Clearasil) and a sunscreen/moisturizer(Venus). Just need an expert opinion on the best brands based on personal experience. |
Re: Daily Beauty Rotuine by naijadiva2(f): 4:48pm On Oct 07, 2010 |
I guess mine is simple. Night time, b4 bed: I wash my face with a bar of dove soap for sensitive skin. Pat dry. Use coconut oil to moisturize face. (I started using Olive oil this week so i'll see how that goes. So far so good.) Morning time: Brush teeth, Take shower with dr.bonners castile liquid soap. I don't wash my face with it bcuz its a bit harsh for the face but excellent for the body. To clean my face in the morning, I use a warm wet towel only, no soap bcuz i washed face thoroughly the nite b4 and don't want to strip away natural oils from face. then i put on any moisturizer that i see laying around lol. but this week i've been using olive oil for face in morning to see how i like, so far so good. I used Coconut oil for my body. Great stuff. put on clothes, eat breakfast, then do make up. NOthing heavy. And then im out the door. Oh yea, almost forgot. I "try" to exfoliate atleast twice a week with St.ives apricot scrub. And thats it. 1 Like |
Re: Daily Beauty Rotuine by InkedNerd(f): 5:11pm On Oct 07, 2010 |
naija_diva: Wish I could go back to using coconut oil on my body. The stuff makes me break out on my body . I liked using it since it was so light. What brand of coconut oil do you use? Which Dr. Bronner's soap do you use? |
Re: Daily Beauty Rotuine by naijadiva2(f): 10:33pm On Oct 07, 2010 |
I get my coconut oil from tropical traditions online. Its liike $25 a jar but they usually have sales. But i might stop buying from there and just get it from GNC for like $10 (If i remember correctly). and i use the liquid soad from dr. bronners (lavender). can get it at target, whole foods (im sure) vitamin shoppe/gnc or vitacost.com. |
Re: Daily Beauty Rotuine by denzel2009: 10:41pm On Oct 07, 2010 |
How come none of you shyte in the morning.Unhygienic lots |
Re: Daily Beauty Rotuine by InkedNerd(f): 11:03pm On Oct 07, 2010 |
naija_diva: Its been a while since I bought oil. I still use it to make stuff though. I used a bunch of different brands. I've tried Nutiva, Now, Spectrum, and Wilderness Family Naturals. I might it another try again as a body oil. I've tried Tropical Traditions a couple of time. There was a store that my friend showed me where I could buy it. Its hard to find in stores around here. I usually buy my other coconut oils from health food stores and Whole foods. Do you ever use you the Dr. Bronner's in your hair? I do, but I don't dilute it like most people do. |
Re: Daily Beauty Rotuine by Dorammy(f): 5:20pm On Oct 08, 2010 |

Re: Daily Beauty Rotuine by iice(f): 10:23am On Oct 12, 2010 |
I'm terrible with daily routines and worse, beauty ones. I roll out of bed, get in the shower, wash my hair, condition and for like 15mins let the conditioner work, i brush while waiting. I bathe with whatever soap available except for a few like zest, which i'm allergic to. Sometimes i use body wash, sometimes shampoo. I'm really not picky. I bathe with loofah alot. Same soap for face, even if it's shampoo. For lotion, same with my soap, i use anything but what i tend to do, is mix my lotions all together and add petroleum jelly and baby oil. I just put olive oil or coconut oil or hair cream on my hair and comb the thing. I put very light moisturizer and sunblock if i remember or not lazy, otherwise i really don't care. I don't wear make up, recently i've started forgetting to put on lip gloss. Deo is whatever is on my table, there was a time i used male deodorants, now i have sure spray, dove roll on, secret stick. . .whatever i'm in the mood for will do for the day. At night, a light shower. . .same thing with the soap/shower gel. Sometimes i wash my hair again. Brush, baby oil for the body. I have beauty stuff from my mother. Astringent is still full, moisturizer was still full. . .i poured it into my mixture of lotion for my body. . .I don't comb the hair if i shampoo again. The morning own don do me. |
