Avoid Common Grooming Mistakes
You can avoid common beauty mistakes with the right knowledge and retaining some old habits. Small adjustments in skincare, makeup, and hair routines can make a big difference!
Skincare Routine Order Importance
The order in which skincare products are applied can impact their effectiveness. Start with your lighter products and move to heavier ones for proper absorption and the most bang for your buck when it comes to those pricey products. Think most water-like to least water-like for best results.
Master Makeup Application Tips
Using the right tools and techniques can really elevate your makeup application. Brushes and beauty blenders play a key role in achieving a flawless finish. Mastering makeup application skills can enhance your overall grooming routine. Look up tutorials online whenever you're in doubt.
A Few Common Beauty Mistakes From The Episode
DON'T ❌ | DO ✅ |
|---|---|
Dip your fingers in jars/containers! Jenny: I have done this every night for as long as I’ve been wearing night cream | Use a scoop or a Q-tip because... bacteria… Yes, even on clean hands. |
Finish your makeup look with powder. Jenny: I literally did this yesterday. | Use primer before makeup (and don't underestimate the power of setting spray). The powder settles into fine lines! Jenny: I know Caitlin, you don’t have any lines because of our forehead poison... |
Blow dry your wet hair…especially with a brush. Jenny: Wait, what? Don't dry wet hair? | Towel or air dry your hair to about 80% dry, then use the blow dryer. Less time with heat and the brush means less damage to your hair. |
Saw the nail file back and forth over your nail tips. | Start at the side of your nail and file to the center going in one direction. You should lift the file away from the nail and return to the starting point until you get your desired shape. Aggressively sawing your nails with a file can weaken them and cause the tips to fray or split. |
