Morning face. Bed head. Bad breath. That ghostly pale tinge to your skin. LETS FRESHEN UP!
Between school, work, friends, kids, pets, love life, catching up on your sitcoms, and everything else in the hectic lives we lead, health and personal hygiene might not be at the top of the list. To help you out a bit, here are some tips, tricks, and products to try out and kick off the fall! Its time to take care of yourself, because we all deserve a little pampering ;)
1. Naturally exfoliate! Kick those chemicals and grab some oatmeal! After watching a video by "Bubzbeauty" We gave oatmeal a try and found that it works better than most store-bought cleansers! Just take a small handful of oats in your palm, run under warm water, press to soften and massage lightly into your skin. The oatmeal will instantly firm and detoxify while removing any dry, dead skin!
Both of us have been using this method for over a month and we can confirm its magic! Say "Expecto Patronum" to rough dry skin ;) ( Harry Potter reference) Thanks Bubz!! - http://youtu.be/7e5_RVBwNjE
2. Remember to pack D.O. for any B.O. ! Finding the right deodorant is important, especially in the dog days of summer! There are a lot of choices out there, from clinical strengths to sports wear, powder based, and gels. Determine how much you generally sweat and how much strength you think necessary, the best thing to do is try a few out and continue with the one that works best! Buys trial sizes is a good way to figure out the perfect on without wasting money! If yous specifically self conscious about under arm perspiration, and tend to have higher levels, giving a Mens Deodorant a try isn't a bad plan! Try and sniff out for one that's less musky and more neutral "clean" smelling if you don't wan to smell too much like "man"!
3. Who says you have to wait until Christmas for presents? As a gift to yourself, kiss goodbye any old makeup, and restock on new products (this includes hair products, and oral hygiene as well)! It can be hard to part with that favorite lip stick, or that last nub of eyeliner pencil, But out with the old and in with the new! After a while, makeup can actually sort of "go bad" so to speak. Due to temperature change, and other environmental conditions (including "purse tsunamis" which seem to occur every time I open my hand bag) , make up can get pretty nasty. Not only is it pointless to keep an half exploded lip gloss, or 3 year old blush palate that will never be used again, its also unsanitary after a while to keep a product past its time. No, we aren't saying you should go and throw away your entire collection of eye shadows and concealer, just the ones that are ready to "move on". (Besides, who doesn't love an excuse to take a trip to Sephora, or even just the drug store makeup isle ;) )
