Physical wellness and beauty tools need not be expensive nor hard to find. Here are some essential tips I learned from experience, in keeping your face & body in tip-top shape without burning a whole in your pocket:
To take out the redness and swelling off pimples, apply a dab of toothpaste on it & leave
overnight to allow fast-drying. If you have sensitive skin (or if you're a teeny bit wary of the thought of toothpaste on your face), use eyedrops or ice on the pimple instead. (Ice works well to reduce redness in blemishes as well!)
When a nose patch isn't available, try using Scotch tape or any sticky tape to remove blackheads.
If dry skin is your problem, I suggest DOVE body soap. It leaves your skin moisturized throughout the day. Applying lotion as a daily routine helps heaps too. Choose a lotion with Aloe as it has properties to aid dry and flaky skin.
For pseudo foundation during those rush moments, splash some cold water on your face. It temporarily freshens you up & evens out the skin tone. For an oily face, use tissue or maybe a towel to gently rub & absorb facial oil. Biting your lips can bring an instant mock-lipstick look...and for on-the-spot blush? Slap your cheeks (gently) to give you a temporary glow.
Sleepy eyes can be remedied by applying some brown eyeliner on your top eyelid, just above the eyelashes.
Bad breath a problem? This quick solution can work. Either gargle with water + baking soda, or have a few bites of a cucumber or an apple.
The most basic beauty tip? Drink lots and lots of water. It hydrates and cleans the skin as well as the rest of the body.
