Cosmetic clutter

6/25/2013

Picture
"What price beauty" my grandpa used to say when we would do home perms.  The house would be filled with the most awful smell (and usually it ended up as an awful perm).  There were tissue papers, clips, combs and all sorts of accessories in the kitchen.  What a mess!

"Beauty" can take up a lot of space if you let it.  Sometimes it tends to spill over into a whole vanity.  Editing both your makeup and routine can make morning a breeze.  

  • Hygienically speaking, it is important to realize that cosmetics really do have a shelf life.  No matter how much you like that perfect shade of lipstick, it will go bad.  Same with any other product.  Even eye shadow gets contaminated with dirt and oil over time.  Therefore, if nothing else, consider the hygienic side of editing out your cosmetics.

  • Gift with purchase?  If you get a product that you don't normally use (eye shadow) give it away.  Someone will be delighted to get it and it won't clutter your space.

  • how many steps? - How many steps does it take you to get ready?  Especially for summer try using and doing less.  Will a face powder do instead of coverup and foundation?  give it a try.

  • Clean it out - every few months empty your kit and clean it out.  Get rid of items you don't use and wipe down your cosmetic case.  

To your beautiful inner self!

Pa$$word?

Passwords can be difficult to remember when you have to keep track of so many.  But keeping them fresh and updated is a necessity in today's world.  Here's some tips on how to keep your information safe and accessible
  • Choose something familiar, but not so easy that someone could guess.  
  • Swap out characters for letters.  
  • When you change your password make it completely fresh.  Don't just change one thing.
  • Caps count.  Instead of using them only in the beginning, try using them within your password.
  • Use a foreign language!  


Fake ID - Use caution when setting up a new account.  Often the site will ask you for personal information in order to verify your identity.  Consider using a "fake id" to protect your information.  

DO NOT write this down on a piece of paper!  Instead, keep your information safe by keeping your passwords electronically.  

  • Evernote.com -allows you to make notes and a whole lot more.  Track recipes, create reminders and of course store your passwords.  
  • Delicious.com - Easy to set up and create subfiles.  Prompts to add tags and notes and is great for keeping track of useful websites.  
  • Email address book - Create entries that are actually your passwords.  Easy to access any time
  • Lifehacker.com - lets you track almost anything.  Also a great resource for a free download to begin your estate planning!  
  • Online document - create an online document that is password protected. Access your document via a link that you create!

To your identity health!
