The older I get (not that I'm very old, but...), the simpler my beauty routine becomes. I wash my face with either a bar of Dove or Olay, or St. Ive's Clear pore cleanser with tea tree oil.
Although my hair is chemically relaxed, I usually just wash it and wear it as a curly fro. I've only worn it straight three times this summer. Actually growing the relaxer out.
As far as make-up goes, I usually go with a natural lipstick and concealer for dark circles, then i'm out the door (every so often I'll wear a brighter lipstick).
I've found that the best moisturizer for my skin (extremely dry in the winter) is Safflower oil, found in the cooking oil section of your local grocery store. Its lighter than baby oil, so it absorbs into the skin better. I spray it or rub it on when my skin is still damp. Its great.
