How To Unwind + Stress Tips

UnwindStressTips

It’s natural to have some sort of stress in your life. Whether it’s  stress accumulated from your workplace, health issues, relationship, friendships, finances, you name it. We can literally stress about anything. The downside is the amount of stress in our lives and how we deal with it. Stress is known to be the cause of many health issues and can affect you physically and emotionally.

For those who know me well, I’m one of those people you “can’t tell are stressed”. I am the type of person who copes with things mentally and never shows signs of it on the exterior. It could be both a good and bad thing but within the last couple of years, I’ve taken many baby steps to help myself become stress free.

Here are some simple things I have done to help me unwind and become more stress free.

1. Write Things Down
Writing things down really helps us mentally. You can write your thoughts down. Your goals. Your to do lists. I find it therapeutic when it comes to writing my thoughts and keeping a journal, it’s great for when we want to go back an evaluate things. In terms of to do lists. I need lists-period! It keeps me organized and I feel no stress when I have something to reference.

2. Lavender Bubble Baths
I’m a bath kind of gal and even if you are not, try! Even if it is once a week or once every two weeks. Light some candles, dim the lights and soak in a nice lavender bath. Not only are giving your body resting time but lavender helps relax the mind. The herb helps calm your mind, stomach, skin and lower your blood pressure.

3. Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff
Don’t make a big deal out of everything. The more you “sweat the small stuff” the more agitated you become and stressed you’ll feel. There are many things you cannot control- so let is be.

4. Always Give Yourself “Me” Time
Nitroglycerin, isosorbide dinitrate, nitroprusside (any “nitric oxide donor” medicines), Check Out Your drugshop viagra cipla cimetidine, erythromycin, azole antifungals (e.g., itraconazole, ketoconazole), mibefradil, rifamycins (e.g., rifampin) or high blood pressure medicines should not take Kamagra Fizz. If you are having generic cialis australia which has been ordered by you and not taken from the doctor and are really confused about the dosage pattern then do not panic because levitraes with a prescription where each and every step is mentioned as to how it should be taken and it what quantity. Not only this, obesity may also trigger a dip in the pleasure viagra online buy quotient. prescription viagra online icks.org The solution enrolls and engages a person to find solace in mind altering substances (drugs); which leads to different kinds of penile troubles or issues. Even if it’s 20 minutes- you deserve alone time. Disconnect and just let yourself mentally unwind. It’s not only our bodies that need rests and cooling times- our brains do too.

5. Breathing Exercises
If you find yourself in a stressful situation, I tend to stop what I am doing and do deep breathing exercises. It helps with calming yourself down.

6. Be Loyal to an Activity
I find that being physically active helps with stress. Whether it’s yoga, running or martial arts…choose something that you enjoy and make it a priority to do at least 3-5 times a week.

So ladies and gents, how do you unwind after a stressful day or what do you do in general that helps you with stress?

December Monthly Favourites

MONTHLYFAVS_DEC
Happy New Years chic meninas! It’s been a whole 9 months since we posted a monthly favourites segment. To be honest, I use pretty much my “favourite” items until it hits pan or I need to scoop out product myself. I secretly fear purchasing products that I won’t “love” and then they waste away in my drawer. I wish I had more of a compulsive bone in me when it came to purchasing beauty products- but slowly- I am trying to make the effort. Perhaps this is a good habit to have for my wallet?  It’s funny though that all my introductions to my monthly favourites has the “I barely test products disclaimer”. Hehe. We are who we are!

IMG_8009In my last favourites segment, I was raving over the Evian mineral spray. I went to shopper’s as I ran out and they didn’t carry the Evian brand at that location so I opted for the Vichy Thermal SPA Water. I’m so glad that I chose this product. There is really no wrong with Vichy products in my opinion. You get more product for the price and it’s loaded with minerals and antioxidants to help protect and nourish your skin. I apply this even when I have no makeup or need a quick refreshing spritz.

IMG_8010You may recognize this bad boy from my IMATS haul. I was in desperate need in finding a great smelling, gentle brush cleaning formula that would do the job without much effort. Beauty so clean Wipeout Brush Cleaner smells great- check and a little goes a long way. I do not spray product on my brush and wipe, instead I add product to a bowl and swirl. I find that my method helps remove more product from the brushes and gets them cleaner. The bristles feel so soft after and the drying time is literally cut in half compared to water  + soap. The only down fall I’d say with this product is that it soaks up a lot of product so if you have lots of brushes that you are frequently cleaning- you’ll find yourself repurchasing this product rather quickly.

IMG_8011As I’ve repeated like a broken record- you cannot go wrong with Vichy products. I find myself purchasing a lot of their Aqualia Thermal products simply because I feel that my face needs constant hydration, especially during the winter months. My bottle looks different as I purchased this at a warehouse sale, but regardless, the Aqualia Thermal Serum is life. I’m almost done this bottle and I’ve used it religiously for over 6 months. It’s perfect for all skin types, paraben free and lightweight. There is no stickiness, oiliness or residue! I find it cures my dryness and helps illuminate the skin.

 

IMG_8012This is the simple version of the Award Winning Blusher Brush No. 02 from Sonia Kashuk. Once upon a time- when target was around in Canada for a whole 24 hours, I purchased this brush on a recommendation from Aggie. I haven’t looked back since. It has a unique handle which grips perfect with how someone would naturally hold a brush. It’s $20 but it does a fantastic job of applying product to skin and not just storing it in the bristles – which is a pet peeve of mine. It’s made of 100% goat hair and it doesn’t shed. This is an investment if you are looking for a brush to last you years! Side note: This brush is super soft, if you find yourself just brushing it across your face for no reason- you aren’t alone 😉

Another beauty from my IMATS haul, the Royal Langnickle S.I.L.K Pro Synthetic Bronzer Brush (#BC141). This brush has a flat head and is perfect for multi use – foundation, bronzer, you name it. I personally use it for finishing powder as I find it does an excellent job distributing and setting product. It’s 100% Vegan for those of you whom are interested in vegan products and is extremely soft for a synthetic brush. I also haven’t experienced any shedding – another plus! It’s durable and easy to carry around for travel.

IMG_8020 IMG_8017You may remember this cutie from my Summer Makeup Roundup. See, I told you I am a faithful loyal user to my favourite products– haha!  I mentioned in my Summer Makeup Roundup that this would be a great colour to use for the fall/winter and I was right!  It’s romantic and a perfect pop of colour. It compliments many of my looks which makes it easy to reach for on a daily basis. Inexpensive and good quality. Essence’s number 07, natural beauty…pick her up at your local shopper’s drug mart!

I got this bad boy in a kit and I have been reaching for it as my go to mascara ever since. Welcome the Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara. This product has a unique brush but I find it helps with applying the mascara evenly. It doesn’t flake or create clumps in the lashes. The plus for me is that it is easy to wash off. Nothing worst than having to pull mascara off your lashes- ouch!

IMG_8021IMG_8023

Definitely Defined Extra Dimension Skinfinish by M.A.C has been one of my favourites to highlight my face lately. I have a fair complexion so a little goes a long way for me. I am generous when applying as I find the consistency can emphasize pores- a natural outcome with most highlighters or blushes. The downside to M.A.C is that a lot of their products are limited edition which can become irritating once you start loving a product. It has a gorgeous champagne / gold like sheen and adds a perfect glow for the winter season. I love how they separated the colours to provide you with the option of swirling the two colours together or opting for either or.

IMG_8024

My last favourite would have to be the Smooth operator Amazonian clay tinted pressed finishing powder by Tarte cosmetics in the colour fair. Try to say these long names in one breath- woof. Anyways, this product is great if you are looking for light coverage and want to use it alone. I use it as a finishing powder and it does wonders for me. It’s lightweight, soft and doesn’t dry out my skin. It doesn’t cake or sit in creases which is a plus.

Thanks as always for checking us out here on the blog. We got our mojo back and made it a goal to dedicate more time to the blog. Lots of great posts coming your way.

As always, stay chic meninas.
