We've all been handed beauty advice from our Moms and their Moms - over time you come to realize that these are probably some of the world's best kept beauty secrets.

Our Mothers and Grandmothers might not be the dermatologist or facialist you've come to rely on, but don't forget they've lived a lot longer than us, made a lot more mistakes and learnt a lot more tricks, which applies to beauty just as much as in everyday life.

To celebrate Moms, we've rounded up a list of the top beauty advice from around the globe that originated from older generations. Passed down from Grandmother to Mother to Daughter and beyond, see what you think of the personal tips below. We've also rounded up top advice we've gained first hand ourselves from our own Grandmothers here at SkinStore, from some of our beauty girls from all over the world! We especially agree with the neck moisturizing one - that's something quite regularly missed!

  • Veronica Demschik, Germany: Make your lipstick last longer by applying a little bit of powder on them first, before applying your color - especially before applying long-lasting lipsticks.
  • Marta Canga Roza, France: Never let anyone else pluck or groom your eyebrows - ever! If you absolutely must, make sure you are very precise about what you want, as no one knows your eyebrows better than you do!
  • Anna Moore, United Kingdom: Moisturizing your neck is just as important as your face, so make sure you don't skip this crucial step.
