How to Have a Morning Beauty Routine

This is a step by step routine which should take an hour and leave you looking beautiful for school or work!

Steps

    Get up before you need to be ready. Stretch your arms, legs, neck and shoulders.

    Get in the shower and wash yourself with a body gel (preferably scented). Follow up with exfoliating and shaving if needed. Shave near the end of the shower, so that the hair has a chance to soften (it'll help with the razor burn and the shave in general).

    Wash your hair with a good shampoo suited to your hair. Then use conditioner. Try to leave the conditioner in for 2 minutes.

    When you get out of the shower, apply body lotion. Also apply deodorant and give it time to dry before you get dressed. Don't forget to also clean your ears.

    Get a washcloth. Pour HOT, not boiling, though, water on it, then press to your face. Then wash with an oil-free cleanser (Neutrogena; cheap and effective) then rinse with warm water. Then get 2 tablespoons of water and 2 tablespoons of sugar and mix. Then rub on face. NOW you can rinse with cold water.

    Check your eyebrows. If they have some hairs growing out of place, pluck them.

    Now it's time to get dressed. Make sure your outfit is totally you and fashionable! (It would be easier if you lay out your clothes the night before.) 
     
  8. Have a Morning Beauty Routine Step 8 Version 2.jpg
    Time for makeup. For teens, concealer to cover blemishes and under eye circles, tinted moisturizer with SPF or powder, curl lashes and apply a coat of clear or black mascara and a slick of lip gloss for a natural look. Don't wear heavy foundation or too much eyeliner or eyeshadow and remember to keep your hair back with a rubber band while doing makeup.

    Blow dry your hair, then style it. Loose curls for long hair achieved with a good quality curler is suitable for school and also looks gorgeous. If you have a bad hair day, brush it into a ponytail and cover greasy roots with a headband.

    After eating breakfast, brush your teeth well and floss. If you are worried about bad breath, use mouthwash. Listerine pocket packs are great for on the go breath fresheners.

    Spray a little bit of perfume or body spray. Do not saturate yourself with it otherwise you'll smell too strong. 
     

    Tips

    • Be careful about using scented if you have sensitive skin, as many scented products will give you a rash. Natural, clean shower gels will work fine or you can learn to make your own; many simple recipes exist, and you can add essential oils like lavender and chamomile (which are suitable and nourishing for sensitive skin) to scent them.
    • If you don't like eating in the morning, try to get into the routine of eating your evening meal a few hours earlier and gradually get into the routine of eating breakfast starting with something light like a smoothie and crackers. Breakfast is too important of a meal to skip. It will give you energy throughout the morning and curb your appetite for a large lunch. It also helps with bad breath, because if you don't eat breakfast, 9 times out of 10 your breath is going to stink, so, eat up!
    • Drink 8 glasses of liquid. Water is very good for you. Try carrying a water bottle filled with water. It will help you feel energized, keep your voice strong and loud and keep your skin looking healthy and beautiful.
    • Eat breakfast! It'll give you the energy you need for the day. A healthy meal would be a glass of milk or orange juice, a bowl of whole grain cereal or cereal with fruit, a piece of toast and a fresh, nutritious orange. If your are in a hurry try instant breakfast.
    • Warnings

    • You don't need makeup all the time
    • Make sure you get a good night sleep so you are not tired throughout the day
    • Remember you are beautiful!
