Beauty Resolutions for 2010
Happy 2010!! Now that all the parties are over and the new year is settling in, it's time to solidify my beauty resolutions. I didn't make any other resolutions this year since there are just so many things many things to work on that I'm just going to try to be better than last year. That being said, in regards to my beauty regime, I resolve to do the following
1. Remove my makeup every night. Despite having a face wash that I love - Philosophy Purity Made Simple - there are some nights when bedtime creeps up so quickly that it seems daunting to brush my teeth much less shock myself awake by splashing water in my face. That's where face wipes come in. Similar to baby wipes, there are tons of products out there that are specially formulated to remove face and eye makeup, and even help to improve skin. By keeping a pack in my nightstand, I have no excuse to go to sleep with my face dirty.
2. Stop neglecting the neck. I'm pretty good about applying my face serums and moisturizers, but not as disciplined at using creams on my neck. I think it's important to be in preventative maintenance mode before signs of aging start to hit, since I don't know of botox or restalyne treatments that are injected in the neck. Even if there are treatments out there, the thought of needles anywhere near my neck is enough to make me pass out. So by keeping neck cream next to my computer, I can't help but see it every day to remind me to actually use it! Philosophy When Hope Is Not Enough Neck Cream is a great one.
3. Use eye cream daily. Since I'll have clean skin every night, it will no problem for me to apply eye cream before going to bed (eye cream over eye makeup = a mess). I'll keep a jar next to the face wipes, since convenience is key here. Are you sensing a theme?
4. Deep condition twice a month. Ideally I would use a deep conditioner every week, but that's not always in the cards. Frederic Fekkai Technician Color Care Mask only needs to stay on for 2-5 minutes, much faster than the 10-15 most deep conditioning treatments take.
5. Play! I tend to get into the same makeup routines for seasons at a time. I have tons of products that rarely see the light of day, so this year there will be a lot more color-combination and experimentation.
Has anyone else made beauty resolutions this year?
