Real Model Beauty Tips
This is another page of real model tips, where we ask our writers and friends to share with us their favorite beauty secrets. Take notes!
Gillian
Gillian swears by Elizabeth
Arden's Eight Hour Cream. It's intense moisturizing action offers relief to dry skin, particularly
on your face. This is a great idea for travellers too, as aeroplane air can quickly dry you out.
She tends to suffer from very dry lips, so she also uses a tooth brush to exfoliate them twice a week. Move the toothbrush in a gentle circular motion, add water to rinse, then apply the Eight Hour Cream on top.
Lastly, Gillian is a great believer in exercise as good for your health and well being. She does 1 hour each morning of weight lifting and ball exercises, plus 30 minutes of cardio 2-3 times a week.
Kirsten
Kerstin
keeps her complexion young and beautiful with Clarins face products. She likes it
because it absorbs easily, has a delicate fragrance and makes her skin supple
and soft.
Kerstin has always tried to be a conscientious model and has turned down fur commercials in the past. Clarins is perfect for her and other animal lovers because they don't test their products on animals.
One more tip from this German beauty - flax seed capsules promote healthy skin and a speedy metabolism. Just take them with your vitamins in the morning!
Danielle
Another model based in New York, Danielle knows the importance of having perfect skin at castings and shoots. She keeps her complexion clean and blemish-free by exfoliating twice a week.
Danielle makes sure to drink lots of water, to keep her skin fresh and youthful. She also swears by Ambi foam cleansing face wash every day.
Kelly
Kelly
keeps her skin soft and wrinkle-free by staying out of the sun as much as
possible. During long, outdoor photo shoots she's careful to apply SPF30, making
sure not to make the common mistake of missing her ears and neck.
Kelly also uses hair products with SPF protection. Most people don't even consider the effects of UV rays on their hair, but they can easily make it dry, brittle and full of split ends.
If you don't have any SPF hair products handy, spraying on a thin layer of quick-drying sun lotion will have the same effect.
