2012: HEALTH AND BEAUTY TIPS

Looking good means feeling good. Feeling good translates to doing great.  So, following our style resolutions for 2012, here are the basic health  must-dos that will hopefully see through this challenge.

Establish and follow a beauty regimen

Plan it, think it over and follow a beauty regimen to the letter: wash, tone and moisturise. Scrub or use facial mask once a week to say bye to dead skin cells.

Exercise

Need we say more? We know eating a balanced diet or even a rigorous follow of Atkins or Dukan won’t simply do. To get those toned muscles or six-pack abs (read: ambitious) then it is a must to work out. Whether it is hitting the gym, stretching on a yoga mat, running in a mill or dancing the fats away that works for you, what matters most is that it must be done regularly and continuously.

Eat right

Ditch the junk, and go for the greens. Drinks lots of water and fresh juices too. Do not skip meals as it only results to slowing down body’s metabolism. Stay away from emotional eating that leads to binging out over comfort foods (ie. cupcakes, ice cream, macaroons and the likes). Not only for that dream of Jolie body, this resolution actually helps in building healthy lifestyle that should have to be followed for life.

Sleep more

No amount of moisturizers, facials or even spa treatments can measure with good old beauty rest. If you want fresh-looking, radiant skin and in an instant then better hit the bed early and save yourself with trouble of break outs and dullness. This, of course, is easier said than done.

With our active work and social life, it’s difficult to squeeze in the required eight hours of sleep. But, in times of need (say special occassion that imposes immediate beauty fix), do not hesitate to free yourself from previous scheduled appointments, and simply buzz off.

Stay confident

Do not worry, failing to follow these basic beauty resolutions does not mean the end of your quest to look good-feel good-do great for 2012. The most powerful beauty tool one can ever have is confidence. No matter what size you are, or what skin type you have, being confident in who you are never fails.
