There’s a reason why Emily Fields’s hair and skin are always flawless on. Pretty Little Liars,no matter what crazy adventure "A" puts her through. Emily, aka the stunning Shay Mitchell, shares her amazing beauty secrets.
1. Stock up on coconut oil for soft skin and hair. Shay uses coconut oil as a conditioner, moisturizer, and even makeup remover! Shay slathers coconut oil all over her body and on the ends of her hair as soon as she gets out of the shower. "I moisturize, moisturize, moisturize, and it makes it a lot easier to apply lipstick and makeup," Shay says. The PLL star also uses it to remove makeup and cleanse her face before going to bed. Apply coconut oil on your face and wipe if off with a damp cloth. Do it several times until all of your makeup is removed, rinse, then apply coconut oil as a moisturizer for baby soft skin!
2. Exfoliate your lips with a toothbrush & lip balm for super soft lips. Before bed, Shay loads on a bunch of lip balm (she swears by Carmex Moisture Plus, $2.99) so it’s super thick, and gently exfoliates with a toothbrush. Then, she reapplies lip balm. You’ll wake up with super smooth lips— plus, your lipstick will glide on smoothly and last longer! “With the change of seasons and the heat in the buildings, everything takes the moisture out from your skin and lips and there’s nothing worst than chapped lips or dry skin,” Shay says. #Agreed.
3. Make getting ready in the morning more fun with music. Shay never gets ready without blasting Beyonce first thing in the morning. It gets her blood flowing and helps her get ready faster. “You want to look good and feel good but have fun doing it!” she says.
4. Wrap hair around your curling iron for gorge waves. Rather than using the clamper on the curling iron (which can leave creases in your hair), Shay wraps sections of hairaround the barrel. Hold for a minute, let it loose, and add a bit of texture spray to get her bouncy waves. " I also like morning hair," she says. "I hardly brush my hair."
5. Use baby oil as a gentle eye makeup remover. "I feel like every time I take mascara off with a makeup pad, I lose like three lashes," Shay says. For a gentle (and super affordable!) way to remove eye makeup without losing lashes, Shay uses baby oil. Just dip a cotton ball in a bit of baby oil and rub it lightly on your lashes to remove mascara and other eye makeup.
