Bronzer is especially useful for people who have pale skin or want to get that lovely sun-kissed glow. However, it is very easy to mess up the bronzer application, making it look tacky and patchy. Here are some of the tips and tricks to applying bronzer. Things to Do while Applying Bronzer Always choose the right shade – It can be easy to buy the wrong makeup bronzer online. The shade may look attractive in pictures, but on the skin, it may appear very different. Choosing the right shade is essential.

Hands tend to get dry very easily, especially when it's winter or when you have to wash your hands too much. Hands are constantly exposed to brutal outdoors, and they are also used frequently among all the body organs. Some of us may keep applying lotion after washing hands, but even that doesn’t seem enough. Here are some small tips that can help you keep your hands moisturised all day. Use natural soap or a gentle handwash to clean your hands. Some soaps and handwash can contain a lot of harsh chemicals and antiseptics that suck out all the oils and hydration from your skin. While these products may have an effective cleaning action, they easily dry out your skin if applied too much. Therefore, go for milder and gentler products that have moisturising properties along with cleaning action. Try to use lukewarm water to wash rather than cold water. Warm water is much gentler on your skin than cold water. Keep a personal towel to wipe out your hands dry after washing up. Hands shoul...
