First: Try these beauty secrets of new moms from around the world

Every country has its beauty secrets. Incorporate these tried and tested beauty tips that I've discovered in my travels. They really work!

Sweden — There's nothing better to revive tired skin than a healthy dose of water. Moms in Sweden keep their skin glowing by splashing their faces 15 to 20 times with ice-cold water when they wake up and before they go to bed.

Germany — Puffy eyes are hard to avoid when you spend sleepless nights nursing a baby. Moms in Germany have a simple solution. Steep two chamomile tea bags, cool them and then apply to the eyes for five minutes. You'll look well rested even though you've been up all night!
