Adriana Lima- Beauty secrets

She's one of the most desired and beautiful women in the world, a Victoria's Secret Angel and posed on the cover of everything from Vogue to Love magazine. Here are her top health and beauty tips to get the same flawless look with minimal make-up and her effortless glow.

1) LUSH LASHES:
 "My secret for mascara is that you just keep applying on and on and on—especially in the summer, I never take my mascara off, I just keep adding on and I think it’s beautiful. Sometimes I even like to take the brush and purposely touch the skin around the lash line so it looks a little messy. Apply on the top and the bottom—for me, the more you apply the better."



2) GLOWING SKIN:
"If you want the look of very bare skin, you can mix a shimmer powder with your daily lotion—or even with sun block—and apply to your face. It gives you that beautiful glow, even if you have no makeup on."


3) LIPS AND CHEEKS:
"Sometimes I take like a little red or pink lipstick and dab it on my lips and on my cheeks. I use the same thing on my lips that I use on my cheeks to give that natural tinted look."


4) EYELINER:
 "A lot of women have trouble lining their eyes, and what I discovered is that the pencil works better when it is soft and not too dry. It’s better if it's moist—it’s easier to put on and you actually get a more precise line. The Victoria’s Secret Eye Pencil is easy to apply and stays on perfectly."



5) DIET:
"Usually when I’m more careful on my diet, I don’t snack. I eat mostly green vegetables—asparagus, spinach. For breakfast or lunch I like them steamed, raw or both. But, if you like to snack, I suggest blackberries and blue berries. You can eat them all day—just carry them with you and they actually help you burn your fat cells, so you can eat them as much as you want!"


6) WORK OUT:
"I like intense workouts—nothing slow, I like to sweat. I love jumping rope. It’s something that can travel—you can carry it in your bag and do it anywhere, it’s light. The minimum time for jumping rope is ten minutes, and it equals thirty five minutes of running! Sometimes I do an hour jumping rope, and you can easily burn 1000 calories per session."





7) HAIR:
"If you want your hair to grow faster, you can take flaxseed oil or a flaxseed pill—just ask your doctor. It’s great! It will make your hair super shiny and it’s going to grow fast."
"If you have dry hair, don’t wash everyday. And if you have very, very dry hair wash once a week! The oils help your hair look better, but it also depends on activity—if you sweat a lot every day of course you should wash more often or use dry shampoo. But you have to do what’s good for your hair."



8) FOR CURLY OR DRY HAIR:
"One thing I would suggest if you have curly or dry hair that made my hair very healthy is the Brazilian blow dry. It’s unbelievable, I can’t live without it! I do it every two months and it makes my hair super shiny, plus it adds great movement and body to your hair. I love it."



9) SKIN AND NAILS:
"I think something that is very important for your skin is to remember that everything that goes in to your body is going to show up on the outside, believe it or not. You’re going to see it in your skin and your hair and your nails, so it’s important to watch out!"
