How To Get Clear, Flawless And Spotless Skin Using Vaseline

Find out all you need to know about petroleum jelly here, including its uses. 1. Remove eye makeup.  Coat your lids, then gently swab with a tissue. 2. Highlight cheekbones.  Fake a model's bone structure by patting and blending a tiny amount across cheekbones. The shine attracts light and creates a contoured effect. 3. Gloss your lips.  Add red food dye -- or tastier cherry Kool-Aid powder -- to a dab of petroleum jelly for instant lip color. 4. Get an even tan.  Dry skin tends to soak up excess tanning lotion, leaving skin splotchy. Smooth on petroleum jelly before using tanning products. 5. Preserve your fragrance.  Dab on pulse points, like your wrists and the sides of your neck, before spritzing on perfume. Your scent will last the entire day. 6. Buff away dry skin.  Combine with brown sugar to concoct an at-home exfoliator. 7. Tame unruly eyebrows.  Dot petroleum jelly on your fingertip or a clean mascara wand and sweep across brows in one directio

I Love CUT Salon - Consolacion Branch - Review

I am a very picky person when it comes to service. I want it all. Fair price, good manners, nice environment and people who know what they're doing. I got all of that here and have never been happier with a Brazilian Rebond. My hair came out absolutely amazing. Eugene was pleasant and professional and did exactly what I wanted.  I would highly recommend him to everyone. No one else is allowed to touch my hair now and I wouldn't be caught at another salon. The IloveCUT Salon  team in Consolacion, Cebu is amazing. Excellent customer service very focused on costumer. Clean products and professional people. Highly recommended. Located in Consolacion. The CUT Salon is in facing FOODA. Look for EUGENE he's the one who rebonds my hair. Location Before After I will update after 1 month Price: 2,000  The year 2017
