101 terrific tips, trends, tricks and finishing touches

11. Oops! Smell like you took a bath in perfume? Don't wash it off (it'll alter the scent and make you smell funky). Erase it by wiping your skin with a cotton ball soaked in rubbing alcohol.
12. Psychic Zit Network: Always break out during your period? Start using anti-acne products eight to 10 days before it starts.
13. To take a mask off quickly and easily, use a wet washcloth.
14. Got ingrown hairs from shaving? Use an alpha hydroxy lotion, ALPHA HYDROX Body Lotion, and be bump-free!
15. Yeah, we all know french fries won't make you break out! But, they're not totally innocent--the iodized salt used on fries can cause skin probs. (McDonald's doesn't use iodized--but other places might!) Check salt content before you chow down.
16. Use anti-acne products only two or three times a day. Overdoing it will dry out your skin and send it into oil-overdrive.
17. Suds your skin using small, upward, circular motions. Pulling it downward damages your skin's elasticity. 18. Your skin needs a good night's sleep too--that's when it gets a chance to repair itself and replace damaged cells. Snooze at least eight hours a night!
19. Make your own oily skin scrub, says skin expert Ole Henriksen. Churn up a cup of oats in a blender, then add buttermilk or plain yogurt to make a soft paste. Massage on your skin for two minutes, then rinse.
20. Addicted to astringent? That's cool. Just don't put it on your lips. No natural oil glands are found there, so they dry out easily.
