Beauty Tips for High School Girls

Beauty Tips for High School Girls

Girls become very conscious for their appearance in high school years. Here I want to share few random beauty tips that will be best suitable for high school girls to get a fashionable look:
Skin Care
Skin can undergo many changes in teens for instance skin produces more oil which causes embarrassing acne problem. You should avoid washing your face many times a day and using highly medicated products. These medications over stimulate oil glands to produce more oil. Make sure to wash your face with a light soap twice per day. It will also be good to add some shine-free moisturizer for skin hydration. Make sure to remove makeup before sleeping.

Makeup
Mostly high school girls like to use heavy makeup in crazy colors for fun but it looks unnatural. Choose one feature you want to highlight when it comes the time to apply makeup. Use this key feature as a base for you. If you have pretty eyes then do those up and leave rest of your face as natural. If you want to use bright lipstick then use minimal amount of makeup elsewhere.

Hair
Hair styling is very important for high school girls. Girls like to have fun in dyeing hairs and use different colors to highlight hairs. Having one signature hairstyle is an easy way to retain your personality among all other high school girls.

How to Be a Beautiful Teenager

How to Be a Beautiful Teenager

It's getting harder and harder to fit in as a teenager. The key to being social is confidence, which (I find!) is easier to accomplish if you feel beautiful. Beauty is basically all about hygiene. Take care of yourself! You deserve it.

  1. Brush teeth and use mouthwash, and floss daily - twice a day.

Have a packet of mint gum nearby to chew when your breath isn't great! Get braces if you have to, and don't be ashamed to wear them - you'll be the one smiling in the future with lovely teeth when your braces come off!

  2. Use deodorant (and if you want) cologne or perfume, even if you think you don't smell.

  3. Be healthy. It might not seem like it matters much, but being in shape and healthy makes a huge difference. It's not as hard as it seems. Make sure you eat healthy foods, and stay away from fatty/sugary foods, eat lots of veggies and fruits, and exercise at least 30-60 minutes a day. After doing a good cardio workout, like running, for 30 minutes you raise your heart rate which puts your body in "fat burning mode". Try and burn more calories than you eat a day, and make sure you never skip a meal. It makes your body take muscle tissue into your metabolism and makes you store fat, making your metabolism run slowly resulting in weight gain.

  4. Take care your hair! Use shampoo and conditioner at least 2-3 times a week. On the days you can, let your hair get greasy (sounds gross but the natural oils are really good for your hair).

  5. Shave or wax any hair that you don't want on your body. It's a good idea, if you're doing any facial hair removal, to go get it professionally done. For best results with shaving, exfoliate your legs first, towel dry, then cover legs in shaving foam (lots of it!) and shave. Be careful not to get into the habit of over-shaving (shaving every day, for instance) as it will just make the hair grow back thicker and it'll end up being a huge hassle.

  6. Take care of your nails! You don't have to go to a salon.

    Take care of your nails! You don't have to go to a salon. Just get a nail file and/or nail clippers. You can shape your nails with a file or clip off uneven parts with the clippers. If you want a natural look apply clear nail strengthener to them and leave them be! If you want a funky look then go for any colour you want, just make sure to fix them if they chip at all. Chipped paint looks terrible.

  7. Fight the habits! Stop biting your nails, picking at skin blemishes, etc.

  8. Smile! Seriously! It makes you a lot prettier and approachable.

  9. Apply a bit of make-up (if you want) to enhance your natural look. Don't plaster it on, and use neutral colours. Use bold mascara to make your eyes seem bigger. Lip balms and glosses are cute, or use lipstick to achieve a bolder look. If you don't want lip stuff on your lips, you can moisturize with lip chap. Acne is very common with teens, you can cover it up with concealer and foundation. Fit Me or Cover girl works great, and is super cheap! Maybe buy a good, gentle face wash to help clear it up.

  10. Find a style of clothing that suits your body type. Don't wear really tight clothes if you're a little bigger, and not wear really baggy clothes that fall off either. Make sure your clothes are clean and tidy. If they have stains or holes (unless they are those famous "ripped jeans") just throw them out. Don't wear the same outfit two days in a row and make sure all of your clothes are clean and wrinkle-less.

  11. Remember you can change your look but it's not always good to change your personality if you want to fit in, so, with that being said, be yourself. Yep, that's a bit cliche, but it's the truth! Being yourself will make you look (even more) beautiful.


Tips

Skin Care Tips for Teens

Skin Care Tips for Teens

The teenage years are often marked by drastic changes on the skin. Pimples, acne, blemishes, oily patches and red rashes most often occur at this time of adolescence. These skin ailments not only lead to inconvenience, they also affect a teenager’s self esteem. Hence we bring for you skin care tips to follow during the teenage years.
   
Choose Cosmetics with Care – It is recommended that you visit a dermatologist for advice on the kind of product that will be safe for your skin type. Only then should you purchase cosmetics such as foundation, blush or compact.
  • Go Gentle on the Cleansing – Scrubbing the face hard with a pad or scrub may only get it rid of essential oils. Use a mild cleanser instead and wash the face at least twice a day.
  • Do Not Pick the Face – Picking at, squeezing or pinching pimples or acne on the face will lead to permanent blemishes and scars. Dermatologists say that skin eruptions are common in teen years and rubbing them or even touching them can lead to further aggravation.
  • Be Careful while Shaving – Choose your razors with care. It is recommended that boys use razors only for the face while teenage girls should stay away from the razor unless it is an absolute emergency. There are varieties of blades and razor brands available in the market. Choose yours after much consideration.
  • Sunscreen is a Must – Use a sunscreen of at least SPF 30 whether it is summer or winter! Damage caused by the sun is the first step towards premature ageing. Moreover you do not want sunburns very early on in life! So apply and reapply sunscreen when out in the sun for a prolonged period of time.
  • Keep Skin Hydrated – There is no alternative to water when it comes to proper skin care. People with oily to normal skin must drink eight glasses and teens with dry skin at least ten glasses of water throughout the day to flush out the harmful toxins from the skin, leaving the skin surface glowing and blemish free.
  • Keep Skin Moisturized – We sometimes avoid using a moisturizer when it is hot and humid outside. But it is recommended that you replace an oil based moisturizer with a water based moisturizer for such weather conditions. It is very important to moisturize skin every single day.

Diet and exercise go hand in hand to help you get a fit body. Here are simple tips that teens should incorporate in their regular exercise regimen.
   
School Sports – Engagement in a sporting activity serves two purposes. The first is to keep the body in shape; the second is to avoid getting into the habit of snacking while you are sitting idle or watching television. So encourage the teens at home to join the school football, volleyball or basketball team as remaining physically active will also help to enhance self esteem.
  • Strength Training – A teenager must do strength training for half an hour at least thrice a week. Weight machines, resistance bands or free weights can be used for the purpose. Concentrate on exercising the major muscle groups when you do strength training. Sometimes professional help may be necessary.
  • Exercise Alternatives – While these are very useful physical activities, they are sometimes not termed as exercise. Swimming, roller skating, water skiing, fishing, hiking, gardening and bike riding are some such fun activities. Getting your teenage son or daughter enrolled in these classes will not make them feel that they are burdened by the drudgery of exercise.
  • Fitness through Video Games – No, video games don’t always make you a couch potato! Fitness games are available in the market at affordable prices as DVDs. Alternately, you can also buy workout videos and emulate the exercises featured there.

Diet Regimen for Teens

If there is a teenager in the house you will know how difficult it exactly is to get him/her on a healthy diet! On the other hand, the body requires essential nutrients in the teen years because it still has a lot of growing up to do. Since it is very unlikely that a teenage boy or girl will choose to eat only healthy food throughout the day, you can make a routine for them to follow in order to encourage healthy eating habits. Listed below are some tips for a proper diet regimen for teenagers:

  • Breakfast is a Must – In order to prepare your body with energy to survive the day, a heavy breakfast is a must. Fruits or fruit juices are a must. Proteins in the form of nuts are essential and so is one form of complex carbohydrate.
  • Cook a Healthy Dinner – At night, eat light and try to eat together. Lean protein, whole grains, at least two vegetables and a fruit based dessert are perfect for a teen.
  • Fast Food is Necessary too – Unlike the popular belief that consumption of fast food makes you fat and unhealthy, we feel that dining out at a fast food joint should be made compulsory at least twice a month for a teenager. This will lead to a change of taste and hence keep the teen interested in healthy food.
  • Avoid Processed Food – Food that is stored in jars, cans, boxes or other packages should be consumed as less as possible. Processed food has a high percentage of preservatives and sugar that is harmful for a teen’s health.
  • Binge on Healthy Snacks – Eating in small proportions is important for a teenager. But it is also advisable that he/she eats many times throughout the day. Here is where snacking options come into play. Instead of bingeing on fried food, opt for sandwiches or popcorn. Include lean meat and a variety of vegetables in the sandwich. You can sauté popcorn in butter for taste.
  • Don’t Forget your Water Intake – Staying hydrated means staying healthy. As teenagers, the body is subjected to stress and strain through studying or playing sports. But even if you are sitting idle at home, it is important to drink at least 8 glasses of water everyday. Hydration also ensures proper metabolism.
