Here are some of the things I do when I am having a selfcare session or when i am feeling a bit down.
After a stressful week/day, my skin feels tired, dry and just pulled. I recommend having a skincare routine but it’s totally fine if you don’t have any!
I personaly start by taking a shower and cleaning my sking with a gel cleanser. I usualy use a face scrub and then a sheet face mask or gel face mask.
This is pretty basic to be honest but it’s doing a really good job for me at least :)
Also learn what your skin type is ! This is so important for taking good care of your skin and having it clear and flawless ♥
Im a terrible exemple I have to admit but, when I get stressed, My hair become super dry and they start falling out.
Use products adapted to your hair type and, if possible, take food suplements like OMEGA3 or vitamins.
3) Take time for yourself
Read a good book, light a candle, meditate, sing and/ or listen to music...
You are the most important thing so take time to relax and think about you feelings. REMEMBER : YOU ARE VALID AND NEVER FEEL ASHAMED/SORRY FOR WHAT YOU ARE FEELING
It kinda goes with the “take time for yourself” section but it is very important to me : create something !
Journal, paint, draw, write... Whatever works best for you and makes you feel unique, comfortable, happy and alive :)) You can do something that you love like reading poetry, playing video games even if its not super creative ! Just have fun !
I personaly write journal pages following some journaling propmts (you can find a lot of different prompts on different themes over youtube, Tumblr, pinterest, We Heart it...) and create bullet journal spreads.
I know that when you are stressed and tired you may not want to talk to anybody but trust me, that can do wonders for you.
Of course,if you really don’t feel like it, or if you get bad social anxiety, don’t do it ! By the way you don’t have to do a single thing that I am listing here, it’s just my own personal experiences that i share in order to help people out :))))
Just talk to a friend or to your family and see if they have been through something similar to what you are experiencing at the moment :)
NEVER SKIP MEALS. N E V E R.
Drink water and tea, eat healthy snacks ( FRUITS !!!) and lots of veggies :)
Surround yourself with what inspires you :) Watch videos from youtubers that boosts you, follow instagram accounts that helps you stay creative and motivated, search images on Tumblr, Pinterest, We heart it that makes you excited !
Here are some youtubers that i personaly love : (self help and self grow)
Even if it’s just 10 squats. Move your body ! Dance, do yoga, go for a walk/ jog, workout... It’ll make you feel better :)
Watch series and movies, stay in bed and sleep :))
It will make you feel so clear and accomplished ! You know what they say ; “clear space, clear mind”
It’s so satisfying to have your spot all clean and neat, it will also reduce your stress and make you happier !
