It's that time of year again where we make a bunch of resolutions that last for approximately three days. These eight beauty resolutions are things that you should follow all year though. They're super easy to follow and will help make a healthier, happier, more beautiful you. Whether you pick one to start or go for all eight, you'll be sure to see results.
1. Exfoliate once or twice a week
Want your skin to GLOW? Exfoliating once or twice a week helps remove dead skin to leave brighter, smoother, healthier-looking skin behind. Just be sure not to over-exfoliate as that can leave dry patches.
2. Drink lots of water
I am forever trying to drink more water. My camel bak water bottle literally comes everywhere with me. Your body needs water and without it you can't be your best you. Challenge yourself to drink one more glass of water than you currently do.
3. Make sleep a priority
There's a reason it's called 'Beauty Sleep.' Keep yourself beautiful by prioritizing sleep. Try going to bed at the same time every night, the bags under your eyes will thank you.
4. Use hand cream
Fight dry, flaky skin with moisture. And don't forget the rest of your body too. Apply lotion after washing your hands (and after the shower) to trap in the moisture.
5. Eat beauty foods
Avocado, green tea, tomatoes, salmon, eggs, pomegranate, walnuts, and beans all have amazing benefits to your beauty and health. Try incorporating them into your daily diet. Drinking green tea is big goal of mine this year.
6. Try a new makeup look
Whether it's an intense smokey eye, or no makeup at all, learn to have fun with makeup and enjoy its endless capabilities.
7. Mask it
Designate one night a week to a mini spa night. Apply a hair mask, face mask, eye mask, whatever kind of mask you want and let its benefits revitalize you.
8. Replace old makeup
It's important to replace old makeup. That lipstick you've been using for the last 5 years? It's probably time to toss it. Replacing old makeup is just as important as cleaning your makeup brushes. It will keep your skin healthier and minimize breakouts.
