#3 Turn off the TV

Rather than watch TV, use your time more mindfully. Read, walk, meet friends, or join an evening group or class. Use your time to connect to others and yourself. Or jump in and do something different, spontaneous, and wild!

#4 Create

Even if you don’t consider yourself an artist there are so many ways to express creatively. Cook with a loved one, dance in your living room, sing in the car, journal without editing or crossing out, learn a new joke. Be happy, wild, and free as you express yourself more creatively!

THINGS TO DO TO REAL BEAUTY

 Don’t brush you hair while it’s still wet
Your hair is weakest when it’s wet and brushing can break or damage it. If you have to untangle, use wide-tooth comb to get all knots out then let it dry naturally.

Be gentle around the eyes
They are the most sensitive parts of your face, so be careful when removing makeup or moisturizing. Avoid your eye area and only use specified formulas for this area.

Exfoliate, exfoliate, exfoliate!
Exfoliation gets rid of dead cells and oils that can block pores. For a luminous glow, exfoliate two to three times a week, normal skin once or twice a week, combination skin
once a week and oily skin every seven to 10 days.

Indulge your senses
Whether you are lathering on lotion or shampooing your hair, pick a scent that will lift your spirits. Opt to have different scented products for different moods, like a
fresh body wash for the morning and soothing lavender scented lotion just before bed.

Always have some colour
Whether it’s a swipe of blush, a bright bold lip colour or a cathing eye shadow, a touch of colour always adds an extra oomph.

Schedule in pampering time
Scribble it in, whether it’s a long bath or a home spa experience, always make time for yourself. Do it now!

Don’t forget your night routine
Your skin works over time to repair and rejuvenate even throughout the night. This makes your night time routine as important as the protection your day routine offers.

Thou shall moisturize!
Dry skin cause irritation leading to itchiness and redness. So moisturize well. Using a moisturizer that also helps protect your skin’s moisture barrier especially if you spend hours in air conditioned rooms.

Define your angle
Even if you don’t have the chiseled cheek bones of Alexa Chung, defining your angles is a must, in fact more so if you lack the blessed genes. The easiest way to call attention to your cheek, bones by sweeping blush just under the apples of your cheeks.
Condition your hair, not your scalp
The skin on your scalp in no different than the rest of your body and conditioner can block your skin from breathing because of its rich formulation. If you’ve got short hair, use sparingly and wash the conditioner out thoroughly.

~~more BUSTED MYTHS on health care~~

The more rigorous you brush your teeth, the better
Over-brushing can lead to gum recession, exposing the sensitive root and causing a lot of unpleasantness in your
mouth. Electric toothbrush can minimize the gum damage. You also can use a softer brush with a small head for gentler approach to your teeth.

Exercising before bedtime will make me tired and help me sleep
Regular exercise is a great way to stay fit and can be helpful for a good night’s sleep – as long as you avoid working out too near bedtime. Sleep experts at Sleepfoundation.org have cautioned people to avoid strenuous workouts right before sleep. Exercise raise your body temperature, gets your heart pumping and your body all alert, in this elevation state, which may last for up to six hours you would find it difficult to doze off.

 I can catch-up on sleep during the weekends
New research from Pennsylvania State University suggests that it is not enough to play catch up on your snooze time during the weekends. While catching more Zs does help, the recovery is not complete and it may help some people but not others. The best way to make sure you get enough sleep during a work week is discipline. Many find that getting to sleep is not as difficult as you may think. Get yourself into bed and flip open book. You will be off to dreamland in no time.

Working out on an empty stomach burns more fat
When you exercise, your body burns calories from both fat and carbohydrates. Although studies have shown that working out on an empty tummy may burn a touch more fat calories, the overall result is pretty much the same. Working out on an empty stomach also means you have less energy to spend making you work out less,
inefficiently or make you more prone to injuries.

E-readers a worse for your eyes than books

If you’re worried about the effect it has on your eyes, don’t be “It’s common to think that e-readers are like computers,” says Alan Hedge, director of Human Factors and Ergonomics Laboratory at Cornell University, USA. “Tablets and laptops are known to cause eyestrain after long-term use but those screens are illuminated from behind and constantly refreshed, while new generation e-reader screens with electronic ink reflect light like paper”. If your eye get tired after reading, look away from screen, or increase the text size to reduce strain.

10 Rules To Beauty!


Rule #01: The perfect shade of foundation is not optional!
There is nothing worse than seeing pictures of yourself with two different shades. If there is a skill to perfect, it would be in the art of foundation make up. Get professional help if need be, but get it right.

Rule #02: Never pinch your pimples!
Not only your fingers can transfer bacteria to your face but the act of squeezing your zit can damage to the outer surface of the skin resulting in scarring.

Rule #03: Never leave home without sunblock!
The effects of the sun is accumulative but is almost irreversible. This is why you should always have protection even if it is a cloudy day as UV rays are still present.

Rule #04: Don’t’ use too many products at a go!
Even a non-sensitive skin can be turned around when you overuses products. The formulation of certain products may also react adversely with others, and the overload of chemicals on your skin doesn’t help the cause either. So use only what you need and only when needed.

Rule #05: Be kind to your brows, don’t over pluck them!
Full, thick brows are the biggest trend to hit the runaways. To avoid over plucking, take a step back every
few minutes to check your progress. Also, only pluck them after a warm shower when your pores are a little more open.

Rule #06: Don’t go to the bed with your makeup on!
Sleeping in your makeup will not only clog your pores, but can also prematurely age your skin.

Rule #07: Throw your old makeup out!
The chemical formulas can change once it’s past its due date. Product like mascara can irritate your eye and may lead to an infection.

Rule #08: Remember to clean your brushes!
At least once a week. Your brushes pick up oil, dirt and dead skin every time you use them and without a good wash it can be a breeding ground for bacteria.

Rule #09: Cleanse, but don’t over-cleanse!
Over-cleansing can strip away too much sebum. To compensate the loss your body will produce even more, leaving you with an oiler complexion then when you started.

Rule #10: Pamper your hair to!
For all the hair flips we do, your crowning glory sometimes doesn’t get more attention than the regular wash. To keep it healthy, shiny and flip-worthy, use a hair mask at least once a week.

Truths To True Style!

Lets go! Be gorgeous!

01
Wear one shade from head-to-toe
Here’s how you get away with wearing a monotone ensemble. Think in textures and layers like knit worn over chiffon and paired with denim. Single coloured looks are boring without the variety of tactile pieces.

02
Accessories are meant to be layered and layered and layered
Gold, silver, leather, beaded or charmed, the accessories of today are meant to be worn together and yes, all at once. Think of your necklaces in tier with the daintiest chain and pendant worn at its shortest and cover your wrist with a myriad of textures with your watch sandwiched in the middle.

03
The Little Black Dress is the answer to all
The eternal classic, the LBD is the past, present and future all sewn into one magnificent garment. Pick one in a classic cut and length then dress it up, or down, with simple accessory swaps.


04
Sneakers are not just for the gym
Who said style has to hurt? The ever-comfy kicks are best seen paired with short shift dresses and skinny above-the-ankle pants.

05
Clutches aren’t just for evenings
The square envelope clutch has paved its way to the daylight, especially those that pair with a tablet. Even the petite minaudiere has stepped out of the dark for some daytime fun, amping up casual looks with its palm sized pizzazz.

06
The perfect pair of jeans exists
Yes, the search for an ideal pair taxes even the most patient but the payoff is worth the effort. A good pair of jeans will flatter your but, lengthen your legs and are so comfortable you can sleep in them.

07
Sequins work for daytime
Blurring the conventional lines between what’s okay for day or night further, today’s dressing up sees sequins pencil skirts paired with sweatshirts or slogan tees. And why shouldn’t they be? A bright pop of bling looks brilliant when the sun hits.

08
Wear white any time of the year
The only time it’s not fine to do so would be at your best friend’s wedding. Have some class; she the bride, not you.

09
Horizontal stripes make you look thinner
In fact, the optical illusion applies for both vertical and horizontal prints; the truth lies in the space between the stirpes. Pick stripes with smaller gaps between the lines and it will make you appear taller and slimmer.

10
Pyjamas aren’t just for the bedroom
No, we don’t want you to step out in full sleepwear. Take the satin shirt and pants and pair them off as separates. That comfy silk shirt adds a luxurious note to jeans while those snoozy pants can perfectly anchor a sheer blouse.
