There are lots of things that can make you wake up looking all different (not on the positive side really.) You might notice you have an oily face, breakouts, and your hair all looking rough.
Here are 7 ways that can help you look all beautiful in the morning when you wake up.
1. No matter how tired you are, make sure you
clean/wash off your make-up. Before you start dozing off you can do this
earlier. A quick fix is face wipes
2. Moisturize your face. Apply a good night cream is always a great option to
keep your face moisturized and smooth in the morning.
3. Don’t forget your hair needs a tender
loving care too. Using your night hair routine, moisturize your hair and cover
with your satin bonnet. This helps to keep your hair safe, intact and less
prone to breakage.
4. Change your pillow to Satin/Silk
pillowcases. This will help your hair and face to stay moisturized.
5. Hydrate your lips. Using a lip balm
moisturizes your lips, leaves them soft and keeps from drying up.
6. Apply Aloe Vera gel on your face. This
gives you a fresher and more radiant skin in the morning. This works for me all the time.
7. Sleep on your back. The weight that goes on
a particular side of your face can cause wrinkles and if it continues then
you'll be getting ready to get loads of anti-wrinkle creams to work with. You
might not notice that immediately though.

The struggle for weight loss is real. A lot of
routines are tried out, some failed while some worked, some are failing,
starting over and refusing to give up. While we read/hear every other day that food
is 80% while exercise is 20% a lot of people still get confused. Before you
know what is happening you are doing one and forgetting the other. That is when
you hear people say “I’ve tried everything and nothing is working for me :(”
The whole truth is, this whole thing is not
magic. Eating right and doing things you like and maintaining your regular exercise routine is key. It takes
time and commitment. Along the line you might feel the urge to take a break one
day, then two days, oh maybe I can start all over next week or maybe I should
just wait till next month so I can have a fixed time… you’ll find yourself on
the side again. So if you’re going to start again, here are things you should
know.
Forget
About Diets...
Many think that to diet you simply fill your
cart with veggies and eat as little as
possible. In the long term, most diets fail and leave you with nothing but
unwanted weight and a heap of disappointment. If you’ve been eating a certain
way your entire life, the worst thing you can do is completely switch up your
dietary routine. It will confuse your body, make it
hard to stay dedicated, and worst of all – you’ll probably be miserable.
Your
Liquid Intake Is Important...
Water! Drink! If you can't drink then make
your flavored water. Adding your favorite fruits into a jar of about 2 liters and
pour water then drink. You can try finishing that by the end of the day. It’s a
fun way of taking it more liquid. Play around with it. Make things simple.
Join
A Group...
You just can't do this alone without
motivations from other people. Join people who want to achieve the same goal as
you. It helps you to be up and doing. When you read/hear someone say “omg I just
dropped some pounds and I’m feeling amazing” you’ll know it’s about time to
tell people about yours too :)
Breakfast is a BIG...
We hear and read about it every day yet some
people will skip breakfast in the name of not wanting to be fat. You don’t fast
to lose weight, you eat to lose weight. You just fasted for hours and your body
is empty believe it or not.
Make
Good Use of Your Internet...
If you can't be browsing (if you don’t have
time) for more info sure you can download a fitness App from the Play Store.
There are loads of them that can help achieve your goal. I just got one “Pumpup” from the Play Store and it’s
pretty amazing. I love it because I get all I need to keep going, from
motivations, to eating right and exercises.
Make Things
Simple…
This is what I’ve learnt overtime. When you
take things overboard it looks like work and it appears to be difficult for you
as the days go by. Make it simple, just play around it, feel free and be happy
for yourself. Don’t do anything when you are in a bad mood, you’d be surprised
how far you’ll go and when you achieve that body, it will be effortless and you
might wonder how got through it.

Fruits are very important to the human body
and the best time to take them is before food and that the very best time to
have them should be in the mornings. When it comes to food I love varieties.
Just the same way anyone can wake up and choose to take oats, tea or any light
food, I can wake up and just go on fruits (though they have not been my go-tos
but then I made up my mind to start doing that.) So i tried this out and it
gave me a boost for the day. I noticed I was just happy and maybe it was the banana
:D You can refrigerate it before you slice because the color might change if
you slice and refrigerate. It is just a good treat for the morning and i bet
you might wanna try it out.
AVOCADO oh how I love thee. This fruit has been
my go-to because i can use it for almost everything except making Nigerian
soups and who knows...nah i don't mean that no way! If you can have this two
fruits (banana and avocado) in the morning then you might be in a better
position to help me explain the feeling. It is so filling, so refreshing, so
deliciously sweet, so amazing, so healthy and you can go on and on. Having the
highest content of any fruit, it also contains Vitamin E, C, K, B and folic
acids.
BANANAS are good for bowel health, great source
of energy, high in Potassium and antioxidants, rich in Iron and improves brain
power.
I do cut all in cubes and just eat away but
you can also blend and add anything you want like yoghurt or milk but before i
get to that level i must have finished it lol
I hope you enjoy having
this in the morning :)
Did i mention that this mix works for my deep
conditioning too? i'm still grooming my hair cos i big-chopped and we eat everything together so we can grow healthier. Ok that will come up in a different post.
