Try this instead of a cosmetic procedure -Change the fabric you wear instead of getting cosmetic procedures.

Sit down, and fasten your seat belts, because you won’t believe how these tips will save you thousands of dollars and get you hundreds of compliments.

If your face has lots of texture, such as wrinkles, spots, lines, scars, etc., you should avoid wearing fabrics that are smooth near your face.

What is Scarlett talking about, you ask?
Is she out of her mind?

The answer to those and any other questions you may have about this advice is that the strong contrast of the flawless and smooth fabric will accentuate the bumps, spots, and lines on your face.

It may cause the uncontrollable reflex to tug and pull at your face while staring at your reflection in a magnifying mirror, and you may even vow to call your friend who just had ‘work’ done on her face, vs her home.

You will look like you had ‘work done’, just by wearing fabrics that don’t bring attention or exaggerate the lines, bumps, and spots on your face.

Fabrics like boucle, tweeds, brocade, boiled wool, chenille, corduroy, crepe, and whatever blends or materials you find that are anything but smooth, will bring attention away from any imperfections, and will likely cause those around you to ask for the name of your dermatologist.

Tip: Prints versus solids are also helpful in distracting from less than perfectly smooth skin.

But what if you’re asking, “I don’t have lines, bumps, and wrinkles on my face, then what fabrics should I not wear? Just reverse my advice, and wear smooth and crisp fabrics that do not have any texture to them. This way you will be highlighting your enviable skin.

When it comes to the texture of your skin, it is best to duplicate it with the fabrics you choose for the tops and scarves you wear.

The magic of loving how you look in your clothes is all in the details you didn’t know you needed to know.
