I love sharing beauty tips and tricks with my amigas and apparently, so do all of you! I was just checking out the Beauty group in our Mamás Latinas community and came across some really great advice. Learn how to clear up manchas or create your own super conditioning hair mask after the jump!
What's the best way to clear up the scars and blemishes on your skin?
renee4212 I honestly love Maderma. It is a bit pricey but in my opinion worth the money. I have a large scar on my knee that was really dark. It has lightened up considerably since I used Maderma.

BeautyChica Blow out your bangs and the front pieces of your hair and let the back stay naturally curly and loose.
How to keep hair static at bay:
Maggie450 Stay away from brushes made out of metal or with artificial fibers.
Get rid of dark circles:
bella_latina Put 2 spoons in the freezer and let them chill for a while. When they are frozen, take them out and press them against your eyes. It's a little uncomfortable but it works!
Lose weight:
lizy suggests trying her combination of Zumba, counting calories and making changes like buying low calorie bread and egg substitutes.
The secret to long, healthy eyelashes:
tatyben Every night before bed after you've removed your makeup, take two cotton balls soaked in olive oil and place them on your eyelids. Gently massage without opening eyes. Remove the cotton and continue to massage with the tips of your fingers. In a few days you will have stronger, longer and healthier eyelashes!
