Do you think you spend enough time on taking care of yourself? (moisturising, cleansing, pedicures, facials etc. ) or would you like to spend more time but forget / are too busy to do that?
when I have college or work, I seriously have no time to do all that on a daily basis. So everything from oiling my hair to manicures etc gets pushed towards the weekends.
The most I do (sometimes) for myself during week days is the basic skin care routine (cleanse, tone and moisturise)
Re: Taking care of yourself
Same here I have time for everything except for manicures, pedis etc
Re: Taking care of yourself
Can you find me someone who will take care of me? I don’t have time. Le Sigh.
Re: Taking care of yourself
I usually try to make sure that i take care of my skin and hair because if I don’t my skin starts to look patchy and hair gets dry.. I usually keep my nails cleans but only get manis and pedis when I have enough time for myself :).. I do facials every other week as well now.
Re: Taking care of yourself
yeah i try to oil my hair regularly before shampooing..n do at home facials e.g cleansing,toning ,facepack moisturising..manis pedis once ina while but i always keep em clean n polished ![]()
Re: Taking care of yourself
i always do a full facial atleast once i two weeks whereas some people i know do it 3 times a week…un i di my manis n pedis once in a week if i have the time…n i oil my hair every other day
Re: Taking care of yourself
.. I think all women ( and guys) should take the time out:lifey: - insist upon it that you pamper urself with whatever pleases you- personal grooming is something that I feel should be encouraged- its all part of being a woman but also, regular manicures/ pedicures/facials etc actually maintain and rejuvenate healthy growth** of nails/ skin/ hair :k:** Consequently I have a regular manicure/ pedicure!
Re: Taking care of yourself
I can do more. I wash, tone and moisturize daily. Give myself manicure and pedicure when I am in the mood for it - which I guess happens every 2-3 weeks. I try to oil hair every weekend, but that SO doesn’t happen. And my last facial was in March.
Wow, that’s a lot. How do you make time?
With school and work and being dead tired by the end of the day, I don’t have the time or energy for it all.
Re: Taking care of yourself
wow.. I feel like such a lazy bum.
I almost NEVER do meni/pedi’s- i think the last one was about a year ago. I do clean with a loofah in shower and put moisturizer on afterwards everyday but nothing further. I haven’t painted my nails since forever, mainly because of namaz. And I usually just clean, tone and moisturize the face.
Re: Taking care of yourself
i hardly get time to take care of myself ![]()
I get a facial/mani/pedi once a month and maintain it..
Re: Taking care of yourself
Yay! It’s nice to see all the girls taking care of themselves.
Oh no
Atleast try to cleanse, tone and moisturise every night before you go to sleep. It only takes 5-8 mins.
Re: Taking care of yourself
I don’t know, I wish I could be a girl and take care of myself in the girly way - like doing manicures, pedicures, facials and stuff, but I dont know where or how to start.. I dont have anyone who could help me either
So I just stick with cleansing and moisturising my face!
