Gone are the days wherein married women were expected to look boring, dull and drab. Yummy mummies like our very own Mallaika Arora Khan and Hollywood’s darling diva Angelina Jolie have modified and set a new benchmark of how a quintessential married woman should look like.
Here are some quick and easy tips for the married women to look polished and attractive every single day.
1. Keep yourself hydrated:
There are several myths associated with ageing. One of them follows that ageing commences during the mid 30’s. However, that’s not entirely true. The visible signs of skin damage and ageing may appear as soon as the mid 20’s. Keeping yourself hydrated can substantially reduce the pace of ageing by slowing the development of age spots, fine lines and wrinkles. No matter how busy you are, it’s extremely important to drink plenty of water to flaunt glowing and youthful skin.
2. Sleeping position:
You read that right. Your sleeping position plays a crucial role in determining how your skin appears. Studies and experiments revealed that men/women who slept on either side had more wrinkles and fine lines on the respective side. Therefore it is highly advisable to sleep straight with the face upwards to maintain taut and youthful skin.
3. Consistency in skin care regime:
Married women often complain about busy schedules and lack of time for themselves. As a result, women tend to change products frequently, in search of THE miracle product which will transform their skin forever. However, little do they realize that this does more harm than good. It is advisable for women to continue using the beauty products which suit their skin type as well as follow the skin care regimen in a stringent manner.
Removal of make-up after a long day in the kitchen may sound tedious. Nonetheless, you’ll be surprised by the results which are obtained from following fixed beauty routines EVERY SINGLE DAY.
4. Home remedies:
Several married women know plenty about face packs and other home remedies pertaining to skin care. However, they are unable to apply any owing to several factors such as lack of time and dedication. Nonetheless, F&B 707 strongly urges its readers to squeeze some time for themselves. Preparation and application of beauty masks can be done even while you’re cooking or doing other household chores.
Kindly pamper yourself because you deserve to look beautiful.
5. Be open to experimentation:
A widely accepted misnomer among married women follows that purely owing to their marital status, there is limited scope for experimentation pertaining to fashion and the latest trends.
However, that’s anything but true. If you want to try coloured lenses, try it. You want to colour your hair? Make an appointment at the parlour. You want to drape your saree differently? Try it. You want to flaunt red lips? Well, what are you waiting for?
Don’t be afraid to revamp your look. You never know how a simple trick can alter your overall appearance unless you are willing to experiment.
6. Prior preparation:
Looking polished on a daily basis requires preparation the day before. For instance, you could iron the clothes you plan to wear the next day. You could wash your hair the night before in order to flaunt a lustrous mane. You could oil your hair two hours before shampoo.
All you require is planning and organisation of your beauty schedule to look stunning on a daily basis.
7. Attention to detail:
Neatness and synchronization are synonymous with beauty. The importance of paying attention to detail cannot be overemphasized. For instance, your nails should ALWAYS be trimmed and clean. Your kohl should be properly applied to lend a neat look. Your dupatta should be neatly pinned. Your hair should be kept in place by pins. These, apparently, minor factors can alleviate your confidence to a great extent. Thereby making you appear more beautiful and crisp than ever before.
Yes, it’s true that priorities change after marriage. However, will your family be happy if you aren’t feeling your best?! Pay more attention to yourself because one compliment from your husband will make all the effort worth it. Won’t it?
Groom yourself to love what you see in the mirror every single day.
Good luck, you darling divas.
