1. ysl touche eclat to look refreshed and well rested when i'm not at all
2. detangling my hair w/ the conditioner still in it in the shower, then rinsing and staying upside down while i blow-dry w/ a diffuser
3. also hair related, fingering in ecoly thyme gel-mousse before i blowdry w/ the diffuser. btw, that diffuser was $4 at wal-mart and seriously the best thing that ever happened to my hair.
can't really think of anything else that qualifies as a secret/trick right now...
I mix my foundation with my moisturizer (equal parts)- it goes on so much smoother and gives me even coverage and a nice dew-y look. Way more natural looking than the normal way, and easier to match to your skintone than just buying a tinted moisturizer.
putting mascara on just the outside half of my lashes- makes my eyes look huge!
