Sometimes, there are days where you just don't leave the house. It happens to all of us for any number of reasons—unbearable heat (um, hello summer, we thought you were on your way out?), a crazy snowstorm, waiting for a package in a delivery window that spans a billion hours—anything. Or, in my case, one very unlucky reason...
well, Last week I was just stuck at home. Holiday you know....................Or should I say Lazy holidays..............sometimes I just wonder how do I work for long long hours in all those weekdays coz I can hardly get myself out of bed on weekends :P
I am sure many of you are just like me......sleep for long hours on weekends and holidays and then wake up with those puffy eyes, bedhead ( I mean real bedhead), dull skin, out of shape nails..........dahhhhh...................hate it............Wake Up Call........take as much rest as you want but yeh, dont forget to pamper yourself coz trust me, its gonna make you feel even more good.......I have some rules of mine and I am passing them to you guls...........now u gotta take care of this stuff :)
1. The cardinal rule: Don't skimp on deodorant.
OK, this seems like a total no-brainer, but think about it: You wake up, grab a quickie breakfast and crawl back under the sheets. Um, forget something? The #1 rule of feeling fresh and clean while stuck inside: Lift those underarms.
2. Get dressed.
Oh, how tempting it is to stay in your jammies all day when you know no one's around! But don't give in, ladies. I'm not saying throw on your silky party dress, but even if you just make a switch into a nicer tank or pop on a pair of clean bottoms, you'll feel wonders more like yourself.
3. Do (and do and do) your hair.
Staying home = serious bedhead. While
the style may be trending right now, that's no excuse to not wash those locks. A quick rinse will wash away both dirt and that stale feeling. Plus, you're in the p-e-r-f-e-c-t sitch to try out a style that you might be afraid to take out of the house normally! On Monday, I tried out a
super-high bun—a style I swore I could never pull off—and guess what happened? I found my new favorite
ponytail alternative.
4. Treat yourself to something smelly and lovely.
I feel prettiest when I know I smell dynamite-levels of delicious. Because washing up's been quite the painful task for me lately, I treated myself to a fab fabbity fab (did I mention it's fab?) bar of
Fraiche's natural cactus flower goat's milk
scented soap, and I feel—and smell—like a goddess when I emerge bathed.
5. Try a treatment.
When you're stuck inside, you've got time on your hands for things you're normally too rushed to do. Opt for a beauty treatment, like
an all-over exfoliant, or try what I've been doing: a deep conditioning hair repair. If you need a suggestion, I am gonna post some DIY beauty recipes very soon. SO just keep on checking beauty and DIY section :)
6. Take a bath.
And just relax.
7. Give yourself a mani (and try a new color!).
I think you nail fanatics (show of hands...er nails, please) will agree with me: You'll feel way more polished if you glam-up your fingers and toes. If you have the supplies on-hand, go big and give yourself a complete DIY mani (a tutorial is coming soon),
8. Make your bed.
Okay, sure this one isn't as fun as prettifying your lovely hair or nails, but I'm totally serious: How can you possibly feel fresh if your space is a mess? If you're cooped up in your room (or studio apartment, ), a clean space will make you feel way less scattered mentally, and, in turn, physically. Trust me on this, ladies!
Enjoy your Lazy weekends and Stay beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!
