Healthy Eating The Right Way

A balanced healthy lifestyle is important when it comes to having healthy skin and a healthy body!

Everyone has their own way of doing things and that is perfectly OK, no one is to judge whether you eat a certain piece of fruit or have carrot smoothies. We are all different, but I would love to share a few things that I like to enjoy and I admit, I need to do more often!

Incorporating certain things into your diet, like Oatmeal, Fruit high in antioxidants are wonderful for your body, and regular exercise! 

Whenever you feel like you are craving sugar, reach over for a piece of fruit. Fruit has the natural sugars we need to replenish our bodies and are healthier for you than an Oreo! Make yourself a fresh fruit salad! Also, better yet, put some fruit in your water! Not only will it naturally flavour your water, it will also help you get the recommended dose of H2O! 

Oatmeal is a great start to the day. It has the power to fill your stomach up quickly so you can portion your meals better. Also, oatmeal is fantastic in your yogurt and adding fruit makes it more enjoyable.

Aslong as you are getting the recommended fibre intake in a day then you will feel so much better as the day goes on. 

Exercise is a huge lifestyle must! Whether it is a long extensive walk or a 5km run ride, your body will thank you from the inside out!

The reason I chose to do a lifestyle article is because everything we do with our body and what we put into it, shows up on our skin. If you are putting damaging ingredients or have an unhealthy lifestyle, it will show. Your skin will look dull, uneven skin tone, lack of a healthy glow and your body will feel sluggish. 

Schedule a month session for yoga classes or dedicate and commit yourself to the gym! After a month of a lifestyle change you are guaranteed to see results. If it helps to make a chart for each day of the week to stay organized, then do that! The more you are committed to something, the more willingness you have to staying honest with a routine. 

Enjoy this post and any comments, please let me know! What are your tricks and tips?

The Benefits of Both Worlds

Let's face it, we all age in life and we all experience the adverse effects of the environment, pollution, and stress that life has to offer us. But whether you are a male or female skincare is important.

Our society has created boundaries for certain individuals because they may think that people may look at them differently if they took care of themselves or label them in such a way that doesn't make them a "human".

This article is to make not only women aware but also the men in this world as well, that deserve to have just as much benefit by taking care of their skin as women do. We all go through changes and just because you are a different sex, you still are entitled to take care of yourself.

The three most important items that should be used twice a day would be a cleanser, toning lotion and a moisturizer. Choosing these three items depends solely on your lifestyle and your skin concerns. It is an easy conversation to have and will be easier as you learn more.

Men, if you need to find what would work for you, do some research, try out a few different products here and there. As long as you are comfortable and step out of your comfort zone, you will have great looking skin and refreshed feeling in as little as 3 months.

My top 3 brands that I recommend would be: Clinique, Shiseido, Clarins.
