Ways to Look Good and Feel Good

 

While people say that beauty is only skin deep, there are those who’ll give you an equally witty retort.

Sure, beauty may only go so far, but ugly is to the bone. Maybe seeing all these glamorous women splattered all over the magazines has a lot to do with people’s idea of beauty. Somehow, you can also be your biggest critic. Others may not see your imperfections, but you zone in on them every time you look at yourself in the mirror. If looking good helps you to feel good, then you need to take care of your body.

First of all, you need to pamper yourself. Make sure that you enjoy a nice warm bath with soothing chamomile soap and a variety of aromatic oils. You need to moisturize your skin and keep it hydrated if you don’t want wrinkles to start appearing early. This doesn’t have to take a lot of time. Those special baths can be a treat that you can do once a week. For your daily routine, make sure that you clean your body from the day’s dust and grime. Then, apply some moisturizer on your face and neck before you hit the sheets at night. It’s a big no-no to sleep with makeup on. Allow your skin to breathe when you rest and invest in good products for your face.

Also, never try to squeeze your pimples by yourself.

You only make the condition worse when you do this. Instead, exfoliate once a week to remove dead skin cells. This allows smooth, new skin to resurface, and pretty soon, you won’t have to deal with breakout. Also, give yourself time to rest. When you sleep, your body repairs itself faster. Leave work at the office and do your best to get at least six hours of sleep at night. Aside from that, drink eight to ten glasses of water every day. H2O can do wonders for your skin because you allow your system to cleanse your body and remove the toxins found within. Juice and carbonated drinks don’t count. Only water can hydrate skin and aid with digestion.

And if you’ve done everything to care for yourself but feel as if there are stubborn areas in your body that don’t respond with exercise, you can always go to your doctor for advice. Luckily, you now have choices that help in slowing down your body’s aging process. There’s Botox, liposuction, facial fillers, laser surgeries, and so much more. Talk to a specialist and see what procedure is best for you. Nonetheless, don’t be too quick on your decisions. Getting a procedure requires a lot of willpower, and you need to make sure that you take care of your body afterwards.

Some of these procedures don’t have lasting effects. In fact, you may be required to visit your doctor every couple of months. Consider this and set aside money for it if you really want to push through with your plans. The choice is really yours: do you want to age gracefully or do you want to stop time as much as you can? Just be remember to be responsible about it.
