Just because you're a mother, it
doesn't mean you can't be beautiful as well. It does mean, however, that you
will have to organise your time to fit in a basic beauty routine. The best way
to do this is to make time work better for you. Here are some great beauty
shortcuts for busy mums. The best thing about these tips is that most of them
use natural products. Natural skin care and beauty is what we do best at
Naturally Mediterranean, so we love these tips.
Drink lots of water
Water keeps your skin hydrated and
glowing, as well as helping to flush toxins and waste products through the
body, so keep some with you at all times and sip regularly. It's a simple
beauty tip that works for everyone, and what's more, it's virtually free. And
if your skin is not sufficiently hydrated, your skin care products cannot work
effectively.
Cut down on cleansing and moisturising
time
Use a wash off exfoliating facial
cleanser, or simply use moisturising wet wipes to remove make up and moisturise
the skin. Rub a little extra virgin olive oil into your skin - it's better than
many proprietary moisturisers, and screen legend Sophia Loren swears by it. You
can also use olive oil to remove make up. Olive oil contains antioxidants that
slow down the aging process and repair sun damage. Best of all, it's cheap!
Dry shampoo
Keep a dry shampoo in your bathroom
cabinet for those days when your hair needs a lift, but you just don't have the
time to wash and condition. Run out of dry shampoo? Baby powder will do the job
just as well.
Go all purpose
Concentrate on products that serve more
than one function. For example, use a tinted moisturiser with built in
sunscreen, a cosmetic stick that can be used for eyes, cheeks and lips, a
perfumed body spray, exfoliating shower gel - are you starting to get the
picture? You'll be amazed how much time and money going all-purpose can save.
Naturally Mediterranean’s Magic Hair Oil and Body Silk is a great all-purpose beauty product. It’s good for general
moisturising, treating dry, cracked skin and skin blemishes, conditioning your
hair and keeping your nails and cuticles looking good. It’s the ideal beauty
product for busy mums.
Instant colour
Slap on some fake tan to make you look
healthy and glowing. Build up colour all over with a pigmented body lotion such
as Johnson's Holiday Skin, which is available in different formulations for
your skin type, as well as a face lotion. Colour builds up naturally, making
you look slimmer and fitter, as well as giving the skin a bright, healthy glow.
These time-saving tips will help you to look your best, however busy you are.
Remember, being beautiful and being a mother are not mutually exclusive, so
make time to look your best every day.
