A Beauty Secret - BY MARI

I have found that simply using Calamine lotion on pimples works wonderfully. It dries them up fairly quickly. For those who don't know, Calamine lotion is also used for poison oak and bug bites. It's usually in a pink bottle and it only costs a few dollars. Hope this helps!

Deodorant Remedy - BY MARY

I don't know why this works but it does. I use orange juice straight from the orange. After washing my arm pits I take some orange juice and apply it to my underarms rub it in a little let it dry and apply baby powder. Rub in the powder then re-apply a little more powder. This lasts me all day, no odor at all at the end of the day..I came across this when I was experimenting. I was told to use a Vitamin C cream on my face. I thought why buy the cream you can apply straight vitamin C right from the orange. While applying the orange juice to my face I had a thought to try the orange juice on my underarms and apply the powder to absorb any wetness.. I have used this for a long time now and never have been disappointed. On very hot days I just apply extra powder for wetness if needed. I carry a trial size with me. I thought I would share this....Good Luck Mary

Dry Skin & Zits- BY RS

Really works on dry skin and zits!!! ok............ Step 1: Put 4 asprin in 1-2 tsp. (teaspoons) of water mix until you have a paste, then spread it on your face. Wash it off with warm water. (I have really sensitive skin so I only kept it on for 10 minutes) Step 2: Mash together in a bowl half of the inside of a squash, a spoon-full of sour cream and a sprinkle of lemon juice. (sounds disgusting I know!, but it works) Put on face then wash off with warm water. Step 3: Put a tea bag (Luzianne decaffeinated tea or any other kind) on your face dabbing around your face and under your eyes and then wash off with water. (cold or warm) Welcome to the wonderful life of BEAUTY!!! (it may not work for everyone but give it a try)

Whitest Teeth - BY JOHNANNA

I absolutely love your site though I haven't had a chance to search all the way through it. Also I just want to say that whoever gave the beauty secret to crush up Aspirin and put it in water and put it on pimples was a genius. I tried that and it worked wonders. Okay anyways my beauty secret is that for the whitest teeth ever you should try mixing baking soda and peroxide together and brush your teeth with it. Then brush with toothpaste. If you have really sensitive teeth I wouldn't recommend this because it really hurts. Do the routine twice a week and continue to brush up to three times a day and you will notice awesome results in a couple of weeks. Don't overdo this because if you use baking soda and peroxide on your teeth everyday or more than two to three times a week it will eat the enamel off of your teeth. Also slice up strawberries and put them on your teeth for up ten to twenty minutes. It removes will remove a lot of stains.

Eye Puffiness QUICK Remedy - BY SARAH A

If I have a long night of tears sometimes my eyes are GROSSLY swollen in the morning. Something that works in about an hour for lots of swelling is putting a regular metal spoon in a glass of ice water and holding it on my eyes. Re-dip and cool spoon to your preference. It feels really refreshing! If you have minimal swelling it works in about 10-15 mins and also gives your eyes a feeling of being more awake if you are tired.

Jennifer's Toned, Very Soft, Exfoliated Facial Treatment - BY JENNIFER

My secret isn't out of the kitchen, but you can add your own ideas to mine. I constantly wear makeup so my face never breaths, its been through everything. So awhile back I invented my own facial spa treatment..its great. First I wash my face with a exfoliating cleanser, I use Nivea. Second I use a mint julieup facial mask to tighten, and shrink pores, but you can also use clay juliep mask for minimizing fine lines, and wrinkles both inexspensive, and found in any drugstore. Leave on for 30 mins, or as long as possible. Then I use witch hazel found at beauty supply stores, to make sure skin is completely cleaned, and toned. After that I use my favorite, or preferred moisturizer Oil Of Olay wrinkle cream, and spread parafin wax on the face. I leave it on for 30 mins or longer and peel off. Right away you see a difference. Your face is already glowing and lasts, and smeels great. It opens up the pores and lets the moisturizers in and at the same time takes off dead skin cells. If you don't have a parafin wax heater I suggest you get one. They are a dream for hands, feet, and even your face. Skin is softer and looks way younger. I got it for my birthday now everybody in my family wants to use it. My boyfriend works outside all day long, I talked him into doing the facial one day, now he does it more than me (of course when no one is around.) You can get one at Walmart and beauty stores. Have the wax with all the best ingredients already in the wax, but a little more expensive.
