It is not January anymore, but I’m one of those people who gets started with their New Year’s resolutions a little bit later! The gym is full of people on Jan 2nd and I’ll be nowhere near that gym. I’ve already caught the flu there years ago, exactly in January, so no thanks.

Instead, I like the step by step approach. I like to build consistency. I’m so over that get-it-over-with attitude that got me into trying the keto diet last year, so I can whine about it in this blog post. Another lesson learned.

Now I’m older, more tired, but also wiser. And I know better. I invest my time and energy into building and maintaining habits that support my life and make it easier and more exciting on a daily basis. One of the things I wanted to do this year is to take better care of my health. As you might know, I have a toddler at home and keeping up with him and lifting him 426 times a day definitely requires me to be in better shape.

So I thought…I need better habits in my life, habits that will make me fitter. Well, I decided I wanted to look into the lives of women who already did have what I wanted – a strong physical body that can lift a 30-pound toddler and was feminine as well. I wanted to know: What do women who are always fit do every day? What do they eat? How much do they train? Do they rest at all?

Unlike many years ago, when you could only learn these things from the fit people you personally knew or from magazines that shared 100% verified celebrity diets and workout plans – you can now go on Youtube or Instagram and simply observe. There are many women sharing what they eat, what they do and how they work out.

These are my observations and some lessons we can all learn from women who stay fit no matter what time of the year it is.

5 habits of women who always stay fit! Reach your health and fitness goals by adding these healthy daily habits of women who always stay healthy, no matter the season to your daily routine! There’s more to living a healthy lifestyle than keeping a healthy diet and sticking to a workout routine. You can include these habits and tips in your morning routine, evening routine, but it’s best to practice them throughout the day. #health #fitness

5 HABITS OF WOMEN WHO ALWAYS STAY FIT

1. Joy in Exercise: A Key Fit Women Habit

This is the number one thing I noticed about those women. They all worked out 4-5 times a week and all did different types of exercise – some weight lifting and others ballet, it did not matter.

However, they all worked out because they liked it. And you can see it in their attitude.

They look forward to working out and it makes them feel good. I also observed they all switch up their workouts and listen to their bodies. They rest when they need rest and seek variety.

If you’re unmotivated to exercise and think of it of something you “have to do”, rather than something you want to do for yourself – experiment! Try different classes and see what you enjoy! Then make a workout schedule for yourself and switch things up once you get bored. No workout plan is going to work forever – you always need to adjust and listen to you.

2. Joy in Exercise: A Key Fit Women Habit

Women who always stay fit don’t make a big deal of walking 10,000 steps every day… They simply do this, because it’s the natural thing for them to do. Not because they need to stay lean.

So if you’re struggling with getting or staying fit – add more non-exercise movement to your life. Maybe walking your dog, gardening or cleaning your home – whatever comes naturally, don’t put it off or “batch it” for the end of the week – just do it today. A little bit every day goes a long way.

3. Kitchen Creativity: A Delicious Fit Women Habit

Another thing I noticed was that all these girls actually spent quite a bit of time preparing their meals. And they liked spending that time and coming up with new recipes and yes, eating them too!

Cooking for me is also something I enjoy and I must say I enjoy my healthy recipes just as much as my pasta recipes. If not even more.

So spend some time every day preparing your meals and cooking. It doesn’t need to take hours…you can prepare everything you eat in 30 minutes and have leftovers the next day.

Once you learn how to combine things and which flavors go well together you’ll love the process so much more and you’ll actually want to do it. It’s like meditation.

And make it enjoyable – listen to music, to a podcast, audiobook or watch your favorite Youtube videos!

4. Restful Recovery: A Crucial Element of Fit Women Habits

That’s right! Rest and recovery are extremely important when you’re trying to get stronger and build muscle. So I was pleasantly surprised these women actually had quite a few rest days planned in their workout routine.

Some even worked out “only” 3 times a week. Which, let’s be honest isn’t a small amount, but if you’re like me 4 years ago your mentality would be: “If I can’t go to the gym 5-6 days a week, it’s not worth it”. And they prove: it is!

You can go to the gym even once or twice a week, or train at home – and it will make a difference. You have to start somewhere, you need to listen to your body and rest when you need to!

5. Lifelong Interests: How Fit Women Keep Life Exciting

The last thing I noticed fit women do was that they do interesting things on a daily or weekly basis! (sidenote: I read that now and “fit women” sounds so cringy, but what else can you call these admirable creatures – unicorns?)

These women don’t just sit around getting bored – they keep their life exciting and interesting by trying out new things and having hobbies outside the gym.

I think this habit is so underrated! When you actually go out and do stuff, when you intentionally make your life more exciting on a daily or weekly basis you stop obsessing about things that you don’t have right now…Like a perfect body or abs. Like a perfect diet…You just do your best every day, because it makes you feel good and because you want that energy to do all of those exciting and fun things.

So make sure to plan something fun this week and really do it! Something you’ve wanted to do for a while but never found the courage for and have been putting off for a while.

RECAP

And that’s all! Now let’s recap…women who always stay fit:

  1. go to the gym regularly because they enjoy their workouts, they switch them up so they don’t get bored
  2. stay active outside the gym
  3. genuinely enjoy cooking and experimenting in the kitchen
  4. take rests when they need them
  5. make life exciting and fun

I hope you enjoyed this post and got some inspiration and motivation from it!

Inner Beauty Tips: 8 Habits of Truly Attractive Women https://echowoven.com/inner-beauty-tips-8-habits-of-truly-attractive-women/ https://echowoven.com/inner-beauty-tips-8-habits-of-truly-attractive-women/#respond Fri, 05 Apr 2024 06:32:42 +0000 https://echowoven.com/?p=72087 8 Habits of Women Who Are Attractive (It’s Not What You Think)

Embracing Inner Beauty: 8 Transformative Tips for Radiant Attraction

I mean it.

Yes, there are tips and ideas on how you can improve your hair, skin, clothing, etc. But in the end, even if you have all that down, you can still be a very unattractive person.

All of your actions and beliefs are going to really define how people see you.

And knowing exactly what you can do to become a person you’re proud of is going to make you a whole lot more attractive to others.

So let’s take the wonderful attributes you already have, and build on them!

1. They Figure Out Who They Want to Be

While attractive women have worked to get rid of the negative self-beliefs they have, they don’t just focus on who they are right now.

They also figure out who they want to be.

So yes, it can be good to get rid of the negative thoughts you’ve had about yourself (based on what unkind people have said about you).

That helps you to see your good attributes and what you’re actually capable of.

But it’s also important to focus on the kind of person you want to become. You want to build on the amazing things that are already there so that you can become the best (and most attractive) version of yourself.

2. They Read & Learn to Better Themselves

You DESERVE a Better Life ❤

I wanna be a reminder that YOU deserve to live a life you love. Sign up so I can give you helpfully good advice & get you there! 🙂

 

It’s so important to keep on learning how to heal from childhood trauma, become better at your finances, and so much more!

So make sure to not just hit the young adult section for books.

Go ahead and buy those books that’ll help you create a life you love.

3. Mindfulness

Mindfulness develops character and helps you appreciate the small things in life.

You also become more grateful for the things you have.

So even if you’re not eating a 5-star meal or have the most expensive clothing, you can still appreciate and pay attention to the good thing.

It also makes you a more attractive person to be around.

People naturally gravitate towards someone who is mindful and grateful.

4. Instagram

Yeah, you probably weren’t expecting this one!

I love following encouraging people on Instagram that help with mental health, happiness, and growth.

When you surround yourself with people who are growing, it encourages you to keep pushing forward.

5. They Know Their Worth

You are exceedingly important as a human being.

Self-love is one of the keys to having a happy life.

If you know your worth, you’ll never allow toxic people into your life.

You’ll know they only cause dysfunction and stress, and you’ll love yourself enough to keep them far away.

6. They Don’t Feel Pressured to Always Be Happy

Know that it’s ok to have a hard day or not always want to be around people.

It’s ok to have a day to yourself to do some mental/emotional/spiritual self-care.

It’s ok to tell yourself, “Hey, life is hard, but I can do hard things. I’m going to get through this. This moment will pass.”

Also, this makes you a more attractive person because…

  1. People will admire you for this.
  2. You’ll be the best version of yourself if you’re not always pushing yourself.

7. They Connect with People

Value your friendships and connect with people; pour into them.

Always be mindful to treat them the way you would want to be treated in every interaction.

Listen, build them up, give them help, and make them laugh.

By being a helping hand and a kind friend, this will help people to see the true you.

This is what makes you truly attractive.

8. Attractive Women Take Responsibility

Have you ever known someone where no matter what, they always had to be right?

That when they were called out, they would downplay what they did or make it sound like what they did was justifiable?

No one wants to be around people like that.

They’re the kind of people who even if they looked completely perfect on the outside, others would quickly find them unattractive.

People who are actually attractive see when they’re wrong and don’t hide it.

They take responsibility and care about the person that was wronged.

Unlocking Fitness Success: 8 Daily Healthy Habits of Fit Women https://echowoven.com/yourwebsite-com-fitness-unlocked-secrets/ https://echowoven.com/yourwebsite-com-fitness-unlocked-secrets/#respond Fri, 05 Apr 2024 04:51:04 +0000 https://echowoven.com/?p=72083  
Healthy Habits Fit Women Do Every Day

Embarking on my journey from being overweight to discovering the world of fitness and health, I often found myself envying the ease with which some women seemed to embody fitness and wellness. My journey, detailed in how I lost 100 pounds, was not just a quest for weight loss but an exploration into the Healthy Habits of Fit Women that seemed to effortlessly maintain their health. For the longest time, I believed my genetics doomed me to struggle with my weight forever. However, this belief was shattered as I learned that being active and fit was within my reach—it just required adopting certain healthy habits that fit women practice daily. These habits were not hidden secrets but strategies and routines accessible to anyone willing to embrace a healthier lifestyle. Let me share with you these transformative habits that not only helped me shed 100 pounds but also taught me how to sustain a fit and active life.

Healthy Habits Fit Women Do

If you want to be fit and healthy then you have to live the fit and healthy lifestyle. Unfortunately, you can’t eat a ton of crap and not exercise, and expect to have a trim figure. Just like you can’t expect to eat a ton of fat and salt, and not have heart problems later in life. Our bodies just don’t work that way. Developing a healthy routine will keep you feeling great not only today but in the long term as well.

Drink A Ton of Water

I drink a lot of water. Drinking water and staying properly hydrated is part of living a healthy lifestyle. It’s great for your skin, eyes, and brain health. Plus, drinking plenty of water removes bloat, helps keep your stomach full and so much more. Staying hydrated doesn’t have to be hard. You can check out my post here to learn simple and easy ways to keep your body hydrated throughout the day.

Wear A Fitness Tracker

Most fit women wear some type of fitness/activity tracker. Activity trackers give you a lot of data about your daily health. This makes it really easy to see how you’re doing as you adopt healthier habits. For example, most people aren’t burning as many calories as they think they are each day. Wearing an activity tracker allows you to easily track the calories you’re burning throughout the day so you can eat accordingly. I’ve tried a few fitness trackers over the past couple of years but my currently I’m a huge fan of the Garmin Forerunner 245.

healthy habits for women
Move Around

Fit women tend to move around a lot throughout the day. I’m always finding a way to get in extra steps or to simply just move around. To be honest, you don’t even need to be moving around that much. Recent studies have shown that simply standing up can have health benefits. This is especially important if you have a job that requires a lot of sitting. Taking standing breaks or short walks around the office will help keep your body active.

Eat Whole Foods

If I’m being perfectly honest, I don’t feel like I eat overly healthy. But I would say that on an average weekday (weekends tend to be different) about 75% of my food is healthy. I do my best throughout the week to eat clean, whole, plant-based foods. Basically, I try to eat food in its least processed form. Eating this way helps to limit the amount of fat, salt, and sugar entering my body. I do eat a small number of processed foods each day (hello, I’m human!) but it’s definitely limited.

Limit Alcohol

Most fit women limit how much alcohol they consume for a number of reasons. The number one reason being the excess calories and sugar in wine, beer, and spirits. But alcohol also contributes to bloat and feeling heavy which is not what you want on say, cardio day. Many fit women workout between 4-6 times a week so there is never really a good time to feel the negative effects of alcohol.

Exercise Anywhere

Fit women don’t need a gym to exercise. Most fit women will find a way to workout anywhere. So many people use the excuse that they can’t get to a gym or that they don’t have space at home to workout. But really, there is always a way to exercise and be active. Whether it be running outside, joining a team, going for a walk, yoga, doing a home workout, etc there is always something to do and fit women recognize that. I use the streaming service, Beachbody On Demand, so I can stream or download a workout and truly do it anywhere I wish. One of the best healthy habits you can develop is a fitness routine that doesn’t limit you. You can be active anywhere!

Stretch

Stretching every day is so important, especially if you are exercising regularly. And if you want to live the fit and healthy lifestyle, then you have to be exercising. But so many people forget about stretching. Or they forget to stretch both before and after a workout. Fit women know that stretching is really important for a healthy body and take a few minutes to stretch every day. Looking for simple stretches? Check out these pages:

Go to bed early

Everyone knows that it’s important to get a good night’s rest. But what is equally important is the act of going to bed early. People who go to bed early tend to worry less, be more productive, and have an easier time maintaining a healthy weight. Going to bed early means more energy, and people who have more energy tend to be more active which makes maintaining a healthy weight easier. And I’m not making this up, there is real research here. Try going to bed before 10 pm and see what it does for your health.

HOW TO BE CONFIDENT – 11 HABITS OF CONFIDENT WOMEN https://echowoven.com/unlocking-confidence-habits-of-confident-women/ https://echowoven.com/unlocking-confidence-habits-of-confident-women/#respond Thu, 04 Apr 2024 08:29:13 +0000 https://echowoven.com/?p=72071 Have you been struggling with self-doubt lately? Do you want to know how to confident in yourself?

Two years ago, I hit rock bottom. I was at my lowest. I was faced with so many rejections, failures, and disappointments that I ended up doubting myself.

Every time, I started to do something good, I would stop myself from being happy, believing that I could never do anything right.

I struggled with confidence so badly that I also thought the only thing I can do was to disappoint and everything I do is wrong

And let me tell you, living my life like that was exhausting. I was so unhappy. Stressed and overwhelmed. I hated myself, I didn’t believe in myself that I never really went after what I wanted.

It kept me stuck and lost. I stopped myself from going after the things that I want, my dreams and goals because of the thought that I was never enough.

That there is just no point in even trying anymore because I will still end up disappointed. But that kind of mentality is definitely wrong. It will not only keep you stuck but it will also prevent you from growth, from learning and from finding true happiness.

If you’re feeling the same way, don’t feel bad, instead, try to remember that you can still do simple things and make small changes that will help you overcome self-doubt, be happy  and learn how to be more confident in yourself.

Scroll down below to see 11 HABITS OF CONFIDENT WOMEN

They know that constantly saying yes just to please other people can be so exhausting and bad for their mental health and well-being.

They don’t strive for perfection – they know that constantly chasing perfection will only cause them stress and anxiety. Regardless of what we do or how hard we try, perfecting everything is not attainable. We are bound to make mistakes – confident people accept this and they understand that often striving for perfection can even hold us back.

They are not afraid to ask questions – confident women have a strong desire to learn and gain more knowledge. Asking questions will not make us look stupid or dumb, confident women know that asking questions will only show our desire to learn.

They practice self-care – confident women understand how vital self-care is to their well-being and happiness. They know that self-care is not selfish. They are not afraid to take some time off for themselves and check-in with how their feeling. They understand their needs also matter.

2

 

They step out of their comfort zone – yes, stepping out of our comfort zone can be really difficult but confident women knows that for them to grow and improve, they have to step outside their comfort zone. They understand that they will never achieve anything if they limit themselves.

They are comfortable in their own skin and they are not afraid to be true to themselves – learning to love and accept ourselves can be tough but confident women understands that falling into the comparison trap will not do them any good, often, it may just hold us back. It’s important to learn to accept ourselves completely.

A Woman Addresses the 9 Most Common Fashion Dissatisfactions https://echowoven.com/a-woman-addresses-the-9-most-common-fashion-dissatisfactions/ Thu, 10 Mar 2022 16:01:06 +0000 https://echowoven.com/?p=45302  

A Lady is Every clothing problem in the world of fashion can be remedied with a few mouse clicks by purchasing a new one. Hannah Warling, a blogger, came up with techniques to look great in any outfit without having to hurry out and buy anything new. She gives easy-to-follow tips for dealing with typical wardrobe issues that we all experience, and her hacks are just brilliant.

Get rid of the button-up top gap

The gap in a button-up top may ruin anyone’s appearance, but it’s a simple fix. Simply place your third button in the second buttonhole and the second buttonhole in the third buttonhole. In this manner, you’ll not only hide a problem in your apparel, but you’ll also give your top a textured and unique look.

 A DIY hack for jeans that are too tight

A rubber band or hair tie will save the day if you’re in a hurry and your only jeans are too small in the waist. Loop the elastic around your button after threading it through the buttonhole. It takes less than a minute, and you will no longer be inconvenienced by clothing that is too tight.

 Make your dresses fit perfectly

Tailoring isn’t cheap, and people’s weight fluctuates often, which is why you can mend a saggy dress yourself. Turn your dress inside out and pin two pins to the inside of your waistband on both sides. After that, thread a shoelace through the dress’s back pins. Also, make sure your garment is turned out so no one can see the shoelace hidden behind it. Your dress will now be nice and secure thanks to the shoelace.

Transform tops into this square-neck tank top

This cute hack will help you to adjust the neckline on a basic tank top. Take one of your straps, pull it off, then you’ll need to loop it, and it’s ready to be pulled back on your arm. Repeat with the second arm, and voilà, you just made a straight across look, and you’re ready to conquer some hearts.

There’s no need to buy a strapless bra

There is a solution if you don’t have a strapless bra to wear with your off-the-shoulder clothes. Move the left strap on the right shoulder after lifting it over your head. Then, with your right arm out of the trap, release it. The strap will stay under your armpit this way. Repeat with the other arm, and both straps will be taut over the front of your chest, allowing you to wear it comfortably without showing the straps.

Keep your strapless bra from sliding down

And if you already have a bra without straps, you know how inconvenient it is to wear since it never stays in place. To fix it, try this simple DIY hack: hook a bra strap on one side, wrap it along the bra front, and hook it back on the opposite side. The final step is to adjust the strap to make it tighter if needed.

 Fix a belt that’s too long

If the belt has too much extra slack to it, and the leftover part sticks out, add a rubber band or hair tie that matches the belt’s color. Tuck it under the belt, loop one end into another, and put it over the loose end of the belt.

Cuff jeans neatly

If you’re cuffing your jeans, try this hack to make your look perfect. First, fold the jeans on both sides into the front center and then roll them up. This way, your jeans won’t only look better, but they will also stop unrolling so quickly.

8 Things Asian Women Do to Maintain Their Youthful Appearance https://echowoven.com/8-things-asian-women-do-to-maintain-their-youthful-appearance/ Fri, 07 Jan 2022 17:25:39 +0000 https://echowoven.com/?p=30491 Asians have their own way of looking young, from South Korea to Thailand, and there are no shortcuts. Their motivation and consistency play important roles in maintaining their beauty, even at the age of 50.

Use rice water

Rice water is a popular ingredient in many Japanese and Korean skincare products, and research has shown that it has anti-aging properties as well as the ability to lighten your skin. You can either use rice water in skincare products or make it yourself. You can use it to wash your face before cleansing or as a mist to hydrate your skin.

You can also use rice water to soften and shine your hair. It is critical to use clean rice water because you do not want impurities on your skin or hair.

Double cleanse your face

Double cleansing is a popular technique in Korea and Japan because it ensures that your face is free of impurities and dirt that accumulate after wearing makeup and sunscreen all day. The first cleanser is typically an oil-based cleanser, which helps to soothe the face while removing unwanted and oily substances from your pores.

The second cleanser is a standard water-based cleanser that removes any remaining residue. This allows other skincare products to penetrate your skin more easily and softens the texture of your skin.

Drink lemongrass tea

Lemongrass is widely used in Asian cooking, particularly Thai cuisine. Its fragrant smell brings out aromatic flavors and it has a plethora of benefits. Lemongrass tea is a great detoxifier for your body and may promote healthy digestion. It might also help reduce menstrual cramps and bloating.

Eating healthily is essential in promoting radiant skin and lemongrass tea is a nourishing drink that you can add to your diet.

Use products with snail mucin

Snail mucin has been used since Ancient Greece and is still used today. Snail mucin is widely used in Asian skincare products due to its complex blend of hyaluronic and glycolic acids, both of which are beneficial to the skin. The mucin also contains zinc, which soothes skin irritation; the combination of these ingredients makes your skin glow and shine brighter.

Try a Korean body scrub

Korean body scrubs differ from traditional body scrubs in that they require sandpaper-like texture mittens to remove excess gunk and dead skin cells from your body rather than just your bare hands and an exfoliating gel.

You can look for Korean spas near you or order the special mittens online. Depending on your pain threshold, it may be painful. However, it rejuvenates and softens your skin while also moisturizing it with body lotions.

Apply castor oil on hair and skin

Pure castor oil helps lock moisture in dry and damaged hair, making the hair softer. It may also help with dandruff problems by massaging the oil on your scalp. Applying castor oil on your eyelashes may also promote longer lashes.

As a face oil, castor oil promotes moisturization and smooths the skin. It has antioxidants that help prevent wrinkles and fine lines from appearing faster if you use it earlier in adulthood

Face massage with a jade roller/gua sha

Gua sha or jade rollers are surging in popularity these days around the world and they are worth all the hype. Originating from China, gua sha is traditionally used on the body to relieve muscle aches, chronic pain, and reduce inflammation after applying massage oil. However, by using a gentler force, it can be done on the face to improve blood circulation. By doing so, it reduces puffiness and releases muscle tension from the face.

Add sheet masks to your skin care routine

One of the best ways to take care of the skin is to use sheet masks and especially sheet masks with anti-aging ingredients that help with collagen. They’re practical to use and come with many benefits including skin brightening. They are perfect when it comes to reducing fine lines and wrinkles.

Right Ways to Clean Makeup and Beauty Tools https://echowoven.com/right-ways-to-clean-makeup-and-beauty-tools/ Wed, 23 Jun 2021 18:42:35 +0000 https://echowoven.com/?p=9245  Mary Marlowe Leverette

Makeup Brushes

Unless you have extras, pick a time to clean your makeup brushes when you’re not in a rush.

  • First, wet the brush well with plain, cool water. Try to wet only the bristle part to prevent weakening the adhesive that holds the brush to the handle.
  • Place a dab of gentle shampoo or detergent in the palm of your hand and swish the brush through the shampoo, making sure it gets into the center of the brush.
  • Rinse with plain water, keeping that handle dry.
  • Gently squeeze the water out of the bristles, keeping them lying as flat as possible. Lay the brushes flat on a towel to air dry, at least overnight before using.

Hair Brushes, Combs, and Hair Accessories

Hairbrushes and combs collect lots of oily dirt, dead skin and hair products on their surfaces. If you don’t clean them regularly, all of that gunk is transferred back to your hair and can leave it looking dull and flat.

  • First, remove as much hair as possible from the brush or comb with your fingers or with tweezers.
  • Next, dampen the brush or comb with water and work in a bit of shampoo. Use your hands to work the shampoo into the bristles or teeth.
  • Fill a sink with warm water and allow the brush and comb to soak for at least fifteen minutes. Finally, use an old toothbrush to loosen and residue that might remain.

Ultrasonic Facial Brushes

Even though you use a cleanser with your ultrasonic facial brush, it still needs to be cleaned regularly, at least weekly.

  • Unscrew the brush head.
  • Use a few drops of liquid antibacterial soap on an old toothbrush to scrub between the bristles.
  • Rinse well with warm water and then clean the handle with the soap and a soft cloth.
  • Allow the brush head to air dry overnight separated from the handle.

Eyelash Curler

Mascara, eyeliner, and bacteria can all coat the surface of your eyelash curler. None of that sounds very conducive to good eye health. A curler should be cleaned at least weekly; daily if you have sensitive eyes or any type of eye infection.

  • To clean the curler, wet a cotton pad or ball with rubbing alcohol or hydrogen peroxide and wipe down all the surfaces that come in contact with your eyes.
  • Keep moving to a clean part of the pad as you work. When it looks clean, make one last pass with a clean pad dipped in rubbing alcohol.
  • Rinse with plain cool water because the alcohol may dry out any rubber or plastic components.
  • Allow to air dry on a clean towel.

Tweezers

They are used for lots of tasks and almost all of them involve contact with body fluids. To lessen the chance of infection, tweezers should be cleaned after every use.

  • For overall cleaning, wash the entire implement with a bit of antibacterial hand soap and warm water.
  • Then, dip the tips in rubbing alcohol or hydrogen peroxide or rub with a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol.
  • Allow to air dry on a clean towel.

Makeup Pencil Sharpeners

Eyeliner, eyebrow and lip liner pencils all become dull and need to be sharpened. And, each of these has been in contact with body fluids before they are put in that sharpener. To prevent cross-contamination, the sharpener should be cleaned after every use.

  • Simply dip an old toothbrush into some rubbing alcohol or hydrogen peroxide and carefully get into the edges of the sharpener.
  • Rinse well with cool water and allow to air dry.

Natural Boar Bristle, Cushion, and Wooden Handle

Skip the soaking step because it can damage parts of the brush. Instead, you may need to repeat the shampoo and a bit of water using an old toothbrush and then rinse well and allow to air dry.
Don’t forget to clean plastic and metal barrettes, headbands and clips. They can be cleaned the same way and you may need to use a bit of rubbing alcohol on a cotton pad to remove hairspray residue.

For fabric headbands and bows, follow label directions, or spot clean with a gentle detergent and plain water. Allow the items to air dry and then spritz on a bit of spray starch or fabric sizing and gently reshape with your fingers.

Manicure and Pedicure Tools

There are horror stories about infections from manicure and pedicure tools because the tools come in contact with dirt, bacteria and body fluids. Proper cleaning is essential.

Dispose of single-use items like wooden sticks and cotton pads after every use. Metal implements should be washed with warm water and antibacterial soap using an old toothbrush to get into the hard to reach areas and then the edges cleaned with isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol or hydrogen peroxide after every use.

2. Cuticle Pusher

Plastic or synthetic materials like toe separators or nail brushes should be wiped down with rubbing alcohol. Abrasive surfaces like nail files and buffers can be cleaned by brushing with that clean nail brush.

Make sure tools are completely dry and stored properly in a clean container. Do not leave dirty tools in an airtight plastic bag or container because that can promote the growth of bacteria.

Curling and Flat Irons

Hair spray and other hair products can build-up on curling and flat irons and all of that heat simply bakes it onto the surface. You can’t just dunk these appliances in water, and scraping off the gunk can damage surfaces.

  • Unplug the appliance and make sure it is completely cool.
  • Then wet a cotton pad or ball with isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol and go over the sticky surfaces. Allow it to work for a few minutes. You may need to use several pads to complete the job.
  • Wipe down with a clean, damp cloth and then a soft, dry cloth.

a466dcc41a47951d4cd86356cfaf1a30

The irons can also be cleaned by mixing a tablespoon of baking soda with one teaspoon of water. Apply the paste to the sticky areas with a soft cloth and “scrub” lightly. Wipe away the residue with a clean cloth dipped in plain water and then dry with a soft cloth.

Surprising Underwear Facts That You Don’t Believe It’s True https://echowoven.com/surprising-underwear-facts-that-you-dont-believe-its-true/ Wed, 02 Jun 2021 22:52:34 +0000 https://echowoven.com/?p=6321 Underwear is something we put on every day, it provides the foundation to our overall attire experience. Male and female, underwear gives us protection and support to our important bits and protects our outerwear from soiling. Donning underwear has become a second nature habit and generally few of us give any thought to what we put on during the day or whether our underwear is fit for purpose or suited to the right occasion. Our underwear habits can speak volumes about personality and can have a marked effect on underwear production globally.

The following facts about underwear should give you some food for thought in underwear choices and habits and a head start in ensuring you are properly attired and healthy in mind and body.

Should You Sit In Satin?

Satin underwear is very pretty and essentially comes under that special occasion selection. However if your underwear is all satin then you need to be aware of the downsides that can occur from wearing the fabric. Satin is a non-breathable fabric and when those enclosed areas around anus, groin and genitalia get hot and sweaty a breeding ground for infections is created. Satin will not soak up the moisture so it stays put. Most panties will have a cotton gusset which will help to alleviate the problem, so do check them out before you buy. Bras too, especially if you suffer from boob sweat , can allow bacteria to thrive on the underside of the breast, which can cause sores to develop. Loose fitting satin camisoles are ok as they allow air between the fabric and the body. There is no need to ditch the satin, just keep it for those special occasions.

It’s A Match

Making sure you have a clean pair of panties on in case of the unexpected is one thing. Another is, as much as possible, to ensure you are wearing a matching bra and panties, or at least common in fabric and or colour scheme. Only a very small percentage of women (approx. 15%) wear matching underwear. How many times do you go out without thinking about it. We have a tendency to just grab the first pair of panties and bra that come to hand. Some may say that at least you are wearing some, however it is so much nicer to have something on that sembles a match, to make you feel properly dressed. It shows you have given some thought to your appearance. Next time you purchase new underwear also give some thought to what bras you already have at home and do your best to select panties that will look good with them.

What Sort Of Woman Are You?

Does the type of panties you wear give away the person you are? Research suggests that they can. If you wear white cotton panties you are low maintenance and down to earth. Put it to the test and check out the type of panties you have with the person you are. Perhaps you are high maintenance and wear frilly, lacy ones, or are a daring confident women in a thong. Style and colour all play a part in giving our personality traits away. Who knew that underwear could speak for us. If you are one of the lads, sporty or up for a laugh then boy shorts or boxers are for you. Bikinis suggest you are laid back. Are you a passionate red, or a joyful bright yellow, a peaceful blue or romantic pink? Our moods fluctuate so wear something that reflects your mood and if you want a change then just go change your panties.

In general, thongs put you at a higher risk for infections

In order for them to do their job, thongs usually fit pretty snug. When you combine the tight fit with the abrasive material they’re often made of (like lace), you have a pretty good equation that could equal infection. Dr. Ghofrany says frequently wearing them could increase your chances of developing one, especially if you’ve had infections down there before. “Thongs are not the most breathable type of underwear,” she says. “You want underwear that won’t trap moisture because moisture attracts bacteria.”

So while Dr. Ghofrany doesn’t urge everyone to toss their thong collection, she recommends toning it down a bit if they’re your daily go-to. This will give your lady parts a bit of a breather—literally.

 

10 Types of Underwear for Women – Best Panty Styles 2021

Keeping Abreast Of Things

Bras keep breasts in check, enhance the appearance under clothing, provide support and help prevent back strain if you have large breasts. It is recommended that a bra should be replaced every 6 months to ensure you are getting the support you need. A new bra should be fastened on the first hooks, (the ones at the end). Once the bra is worn a few times, and elastic becomes less effective, you should then use the middle set of hooks and eventually the third set. Straps should be tightened to a point where they can only be lifted to an inch above your shoulders. The panel between cups should sit tight against your skin and should remain there when you lift your arms above your head. These steps will ensure you have a good fitting bra. If you have reached the point of using the third set of hooks you start to lose proper support and the bra has little or no effect and it is time to replace it.

Things To Consider When Buying Underwear

So, you need new underwear. Are you the sort of person who just goes out and buys the same as always or do you give more thought to this very important purchase? It is estimated that about 80% of women are wearing the wrong sized bra. What’s the point if it does not fit properly. A good bra outfitter will always provide a measuring service. Underwear should fit comfortably and correctly and serve the purpose for whatever reason you are buying it. For example, if you are wearing a tight fitting dress there is no point wearing bikini or midi’s, the last thing you want is a visible pantie line, better to go for a thong or shapewear. Materials can react to each other too and make clothes cling to your body, so bear in mind every aspect of your outfit. Make sure your purchases are appropriate and cater for the occasion. Underwear serves a purpose, so get it right.

A Little Bit About Fantasie Helena |

Lucky In Red

Red underwear is for those feeling lucky because Italian women ring in the new years by wearing red underwear because it is considered lucky, and not just women, the men do it to. The same tradition happens in Turkey too. It seems that the wearing of red underwear wards off bad. In China, if the year you were born under (horse, pig, rabbit etc.), is happening, then you should wear red underwear for the entirety of that year. In Poland, students wear red underwear when taking exams, as a lucky charm after rumours spread that top grades were achieved by girls wearing red underwear. Red is a colour that protects you, which makes sense when you consider red for danger, not a wise idea to go near. It is superstition but if it helps then why not. On the one hand red spells danger but it seems that if you are feeling lucky then red underwear has the pulling power.

Single Measures

It is a fine line, but statistics say that ‘Singletons are much less likely to put on fresh undies that their married counterparts—82 percent versus 88 percent’. 1This applies to men more than women. So, is the reason simply to cut down on laundry or because single people are lazy, or because single people have no partner in life to impress? One theory in regards to men is that their mum used to go out a buy it for them, so getting into a routine of regularly buying new underwear themselves is a slow process and of course mum used to do the laundry. The downsides of not changing underwear daily are, and this goes for women as well as men, a build-up of bacteria, causing irritation or infection, increase in odour, yeast infection, and urinary tract infections (UTIs) such as cystitis. And remember what your mother told you about wearing a clean pair every day in case something happens to you.

The looser the better

When it comes to the fit of underwear, you obviously don’t want it drooping and falling off, but you should seek a fit that isn’t so tight that it’s leaving uncomfortable marks on your waistline. Aside from discomfort, tight underwear traps moisture, even more so when worn under skinny jeans or leggings—and you want that area to breathe! Dr. Ghofrany also recommends skipping underwear altogether at night. “I don’t advise going commando during the day under tight-fitting clothes, but letting your genital region breathe at night while sleeping can be beneficial,” she says.
