Beauty is more than what meets the eye! It comes from within. From an inner balance that you can achieve by adding different exercise practices into your life. A healthy body is a happy body! One great way to  center your mind and body but also tone up is the practice of  yoga! One of our favorites is a hot yoga practice! It not only gives you the benefits of yoga but it also makes you sweat! It is important to know what your body needs and commit too a healthy lifestyle, especially in an often times ruthless industry! This trust in ones-self and balance, comes only from within!

There are two really quick beauty tips & tricks we wanted to share with everyone! First off, for those that have to keep up with roots, it can be a nightmare when you just don’t have time to get to the salon or your budget that month might be a little tight. Here’s a great trick to stretch your “in-between” salon time. Just take a little bit of your favorite hairspray (apply to your roots), followed by a shimmering gold or brown eyeshadow (depending on your hair color)! This will save you time and money, and being Bargain Beauties, well, we just love that!

Another great little tip is the use of Petroleum Jelly to help avoid blisters in your favorite pair of heels! Just take a little bit of vaseline, apply it too your heels or wherever a blister may occur and then slip on your favorite shoes! We found both of these tips and tricks here!

Let us know what your thoughts are! If you have any bargain beauty tips & tricks we would love to hear from you on our facebook page!

Today we wanted to share with all of you a great article on the importance of sleep!

With a busy schedule we understand that it can be difficult to find time for rest and relaxation. However we wanted to stress the importance of getting a good nights sleep. Rachel Grumman Bender talks about how sleep actually repairs the outer skin cells while you snooze, keeping your skin healthier and younger. She calls it a dose of “Vitamin Z”. Of course there are excellent products out there to hide our tired eyes but the best medicine for beauty is to allow time for a goodnights rest!

Let us know what you think and be sure to check us out on our Sashes&Crowns Facebook page!

Take some time tonight for a few extra zzz’s
