While makeup is a great tool to enhance your features, it, in no way, must have the power to restrict your beauty. Stick to small changes and you’ll end up feeling confident without a layer of cosmetics.
Work on Being Healthy Inside
The first step to having glowing skin naturally without makeup is to take care of your overall health. If you lead a healthy lifestyle, you won’t even need to use makeup to look beautiful. Having a healthy diet and drinking plenty of water can help you have better skin. Your collagen level increases by consuming foods rich in vitamin C, such as citrus fruits, kale, broccoli, and bell peppers. Include foods rich in antioxidants in your diet: sweet potatoes, pomegranates, apples, tomatoes, etc.
Add fresh fruit juices and vegetable juices to your daily diet. Green tea, coconut water, lemon water and turmeric milk are some of the other options.
Say No to Stress
Keeping a healthy mind is yet another important component of having beautiful skin. Change in hormonal levels because of stress and anxiety can intensify acne and outbreaks. Stress can also cause hair loss. You’ll radiate happiness from your face if you’re feeling good within. Practice mindful living, meditation, and breathing exercises to stay calm and control your stress. The best makeup you can put on is positivity.
Follow a Skincare Routine
Maintaining a daily skin care regimen is important. Use the CTM (Cleanser, Toner, Moisturizer) routine every night before bed. Applying moisturizer deeply nourishes your skin and enhances its texture. Do not skip sunscreen during the day because the sun’s rays can be quite damaging to your skin. Get rid of the dead skin cells on your face and enhance your glowing complexion by exfoliating it once a week. A DIY face mask or sheet mask is another option for an instant glow. Natural products like honey, tomato juice, Dahi and gram flour work as great ingredients for your DIY face mask. Ensure the items you use are chemical-free and appropriate for your skin type. Also, don’t forget to do a patch test to check if you are allergic to the product.
Care for Your Hair
Overall beauty increases with healthier and shinier hair. Hair maintenance is just as vital as maintaining your skin. Make sure to use a good shampoo and a conditioner after each wash. Applying a serum will also make your hair shine.
Depending on the hair length, try experimenting with different hairstyles. Remember, hair gets easily damaged over time with excessive heat-based styling techniques like blow-drying and curling. Well-maintained and groomed hair helps you look beautiful naturally without makeup.
