Hello Everyone, I hope you are all doing well, Greetings from the Philippines, and happy Monday all, the holiday is fast approaching, today, I made a wellness check of the things that I need, I make Monday a strictly and none negotiable "Me Time" it is a day where I would prioritize my needs and wants, this is also the time I would slow down, rest and restart,i think it is not too much to give ourselves at least a day, out of the whole week that we are not thinking about anyone else but ourselves, and so from now on, I am calling it, Wellness Monday 🤍🍃🧖🏼♀️.
Today let us talk about my obsession about sunscreen, i wish i knew this earlier, because i have only learnt to take it seriously in my early 30's. Being an ESL teacher, i seldom go out, but that doesn't mean I am safe from UVA and UVB, because even if you are inside your house, or if it rains or cloudy, UV rays can still affect you, specially me, because we live on a mountain 🏔️, although when you're inside the house it will affect you in a less severe level, another is the radiation or blue light coming from any gadgets and electronics, most especially computers, if you work for at least 8 hours or more, this results to fine lines or wrinkles around the eyes and forehead. I made a score and bought this Sunscreen from Biore Face Milk for only P 400.00 pesos or $6.7, instead of the original price of P 495.00, score, right?
Also, i have been breaking out so bad these days, most especially on the chin part, i made a research and it said pimples on the chin or under the chin area, maybe connected to a problem with my digestive system and true enough, i have been eating oily food, and it causes me bloating and constipation, so i made a homemade turmeric tea and put my ever reliable break out remedy, the Nivea Derma Clear, it has salicylic acid and sea salt, it means it is an ultra anti bacterial solution for acne 😅 exactly what i need, I don't use it on my whole face as it was too drying, i use a tiny piece of cotton, and soak the affected area for about 15 minutes, like this, like someone punched me and i have to wear bandages 😂 like a mummy.
This toner is so effective on me that it dries my pimples as fast as two days so it won't turn into a cystic or bigger one.
The hairbrush was given by my bestie, she told me that it can promote good blood circulation on my head, it's so biiiig, but yes, it's so relaxing. 😌
There you go, it's just a simple wellness routine right? but your body is thanking you for loving her, for making her a priority, even just for a day.
Thank you so much my Dear Lady Hivers for dropping by, come and join me every Monday and share your wellness program for yourself, it doesn't have to be grand, as simple as relaxing while drinking your favorite tea and coffee while soaking your feet to homemade foot spa.
