How To Glow Up Over This Christmas Break
Glowing up doesn’t exactly occur in just two weeks of winter break. It’s a natural and gradual process that can honestly sometimes take up to years.
The truth is, it can be hard to get ourselves to a level of beauty that we and others find desirable and breath-taking.
And it can be even harder to get to that level of beauty in just one or two weeks.
However,
In this blog post, I’ve gathered an amazing list of ideas that can hopefully help you to step out into this new year looking the utmost best version of yourself.
LeT’s DiVe In :)
Let’s Start With Your Appearance!
#1 Find Your Aesthetic
This doesn’t mean that you have to try and fit into a category such as being a complete girly girl or a goth.
Finding your aesthetic means that you are aware of which tones and colours suit your skin tone the best and will make it immensely POP!
Also, finding your aesthetic means that you know exactly what your go to hairstyle or hairstyles are.
After you’ve finally found your signature aesthetic and style, It would be great to update and refurbish your Instagram feed to mimic your new found style. You should also change your phone theme to mirror this as well.
#2 Buy Pretty Underwear
Make sure they’re comfortable tho 😁 and
100% Soft and Cotton
But seriously, wearing a matching set of undergarments is exactly what you need to build confidence and make you feel good about your body.
They are also quite spectacular in exuding feminine energy and making you feel elegant in a way.
#3 Buy Or Put together 3 Or 5 Bombing Outfits For You To Wear After The Holidays
There are so many ways to look expensive and stylish without buying expensive stuff.
You can even look astonishingly amazing without having to buy anything extra at all.
Simply, dive into your wardrobe, scout on Pinterest or Google for outfit ideas and put together similar outfits using the clothing you already own.
You might just be surprised at what you can actually come up with :)
#4 Go Get Yourself A New Perfume...Now!
The way you smell plays a huge part in how attractive you come across to others so it’s extremely important that you always smell good.
Not only do you need to go get yourself a perfume that will subconsciously make others like you, but you also need to get a lotion and body mist with a great scent and fragrance as well.
#5 Advance Your Makeup Skills And See How You Can Enhance Your Natural Beauty Without Makeup
Now you have the time to step out into that new year looking like a professional when it comes to makeup and art.
Brush up on your wing eyeliner. See which eyeshadow colours adore you. Pay notice to that lipstick shade that makes your lips pop.
But...
It is also very important to embrace your natural beauty so that you feel 100% confident going out bare face and rocking it naturally.
Here’s a post I wrote on how you can do just that: How To Look Extremely Amazing Without Makeup

If there’s ever a time to catch up on sleep and get an early night in...it’s now!

Let’s Move On To Improving And Glowing Up Your Mindset
#1 Update The Things That Influences You
This means that you should unsubscribe from all those YouTubers that you no longer find enjoyable and try to find new creators that you find inspiring and entertaining.
Step into the world of podcasting and find creators that have something that can serve a purpose in your day-to-day life.
Also, it’s very important to update your playlist which means adding new songs and deleting those songs that you no longer have a liking towards.
#2 Clean And Organise Your Bedroom
Change out your old bed spreading for silk. This will reduce wrinkles on your body and decrease the rate in which your hair naturally sheds.
Organise your wardrobe. Try colour coordinating.
Finally take the pile of clothes off your bed
Organise your dresser
Clean under the bed
Put together your school books and files
#3 Take A Full Day To Get Your School Work Out Of The Way
If you have exams after the holiday break, then you’ll definitely have to spend more than a day to prepare.
But
If you don't, taking a full day to catch up on all your school work and studies will be so beneficial to you as you’ll have more time to do whatever you desire.
It also evokes a satisfying feeling after you finally catch up on all those notes you’ve been needing to do.
Also, now you have the time to replace and restock all those stationery that you ran out of :)
#4 Take Time To Analyse The Type Of Person You Are
This is “muy importante” as no one will see your beauty if you appear like someone unapproachable and who gives off bad energy.
Your physical appearance is only a portion of your beauty and 9 out of 10 times, it never outshines your inner beauty so try not to neglect your attitude, mannerisms, behaviour and mindset when it comes to glowing up and glowing up permanently.
Take the time to reflect and change certain negative habits that you find yourself doing.
#5 Find Your Passion
Everyone is good at something and you have approximately two weeks in this Christmas break to find out what it is.
No more procrastinating!
Get up off your butt and go find your passion :) Whether that’s inventing things, writing a book, coding, creating an animation, starting your very own clothing line, starting a small business, creating a youtube channel, starting a podcast etc...
Just Do It!
#6 Ignore Your Insecurities
As I’ve said time and time again…
Worry about your stretch marks, hyper-pigmentation and cellulite later...or not at all.
There’s really no point worrying about these natural things that you can’t change.
Learn to love them and carry on. If you find them unattractive why are you giving them so much attention?
Please Just Leave It Alone
