7 weight loss tips

Hello Beautiful people,

I'm might be the last person who can advise you on weight lost as I am probably the laziest person ever and the most junk food loving person out there.But recently,I've been trying to add some small changes into my life that might help me loose weight and build up a nice base to a healthy lifestyle.Other than the cliches such as diet and excercise,here are a few tips to loose some weight :

1.Always eat breakfast.Studies show that who regularly skip breakfast have more risks of obesity than those who take the time to eat it.

2.Start your morning with drinking water as it can increase your metabolism.All in all,water can help you get rid of extra calories,it might not be much but with making it a habit can add up to your calories lost.


3.Ditch your soda drinks completly.The amount of sugar in it is... a LOT and it might be the number one reason you're gaining weight.

4.It's finally summer,time where we stay up late,wake up late but not getting enough sleep is one of the reasons of weight gain.Make sure to get 7 to 8 h of sleep to increase your leptin and ghrelin hormones that help regulate energy use and appetite.

5.Eat more protein such as chicken and seafood .We use twice the energy to metabolize it so the more you eat it,the more fat is burned.Plus,it reduces hunger hormones.


6.Eat and chew slowly.You will trick your stomach into thinking you've been eating a lot.And don't get distracted while eating as you can overeat and most importantly stop eating before you're full.

7.Warm colors such as yellow and red stimulate the appetite encouraging you to eat more while cool colors such as blue supress it.You might want to buy blue plates :D


They're are a lot of simple tricks to loose calories and keep them away too,they might be a few calories but the more ways you include in your lifestyle,the more calories you loose right :D ? Anyway,I hope you enjoyed today's post and learned something new.

Summer Guide : Hair,Skincare,Health and Fashion

Hello Beautiful People,

It's been way too long since I said that,it feels good :D It started by my computer shutting down then I had to prepare for some exams and I got used to the abscence but no more : I'm BACK :D I don't know if you've noticed or not but SUMMER is finally here so I decided to put together a post where I remind you of some important tips for this hot and dry weather.From hair,skincare to health and fashion,here are my golden tips :

Hair :

From the Uv rays of the sun to the chlorine of the swimming pool,the hair get damaged in the summer time leaving it dry and frizzy and nobody wants that.So here are quick tips for your hair :

-It's definitely not the time to use blowdryers or hot irons nor the time to leave your hat at home. I'm sure they are plenty of cute hairstyles that need no heat and stylish hats that will protect your hair from the sun.
-Make sure to moisturize your hair even more in the summer time using a good but gentle hair products and if you can,add natural to the list.
-Don't forget to trim your hair every three weeks or so.It helps with getting rid off burnt and damaged sections of your hair.

Hair Fact : Hair tends to grow much faster in the summer time.


Skin :

Like hair,skin has it's share of sun damage.

-First thing is first : SPF aka Sun protection factor.It has to be in everything you use,your sunscreen,your lip balm,in your makeup if you do wear it....It's a must to make sure that you're protecting your skin while using your everyday products.
-If you like the tanned look,take your time.Don't rush it and expose yourself to the sun for too long as it will effect your skin on the long-term ( skin diseases,wrinkles...).
-Other than moisturizing,make sure to exfoilate if you spend a lot of time at the beach.Get rid off all the dead skin as it can clog up your pores and causes pimples (not the best look).
-The tan look might be a cute look but nonethless it's a sign of damage.Don't neglect to take care of your skin as much as possible and don't take it so far,you don't want to get burnt.

Skin Fact :  The skin releases as much as three gallons of sweat a day in hot weather.

Health :

-One word : Water.It is the source of life itself and the golden advice when it comes to this weather.I know that most of us forget that water exists until we feel thirsty and by then the body is already dehydrated.They are other ways to make sure we're not neglecting our bodies need of water,so many vegetables and fruits contain high percentage of water such as Cucumber (97%),Apple(84%),Watermelon(92%)....Your hair,your skin,your digestion,your blood.... need it.

Water Fact :A healthy person can drink about three gallonds (48 cups) of water per day.

Fashion :

And finally,I'm gonna discuss a few trends to embrace during the summer time.

-The maxi dress : It's the most classic choice for the summer time.It's flowy,breezy,comfortable,beautiful and fashionable.It's everything you'd want to feel and look like in the summer heat.It's easy to style and you can just put it on without overthinking your look.
-Stripes : For me,this is a timeless trend that we'll never go out of style.My favorite are blue and white stripes,it kinda screams sailing in the ocean to me.Again,keep it simple when it comes to styling them and I'll guarantee,you'll look amazing.
-Boyfriend Jeans : Put away your skinny jeans cause these are way more comfortable and relaxed jeans : The Boufriend Jeans.They are on my whislist as I know they are easy to wear in this heat and if you style them correctly you can still look cute.








 Those were my few summer recommendations.I hope you'll have an amazing summer and if you have some tips that I forgot to mention,feel free to comment them below.
                                                              
                                                                     Stay Awesome !                                                                                                                 


Tips and Tricks : Beauty Edition

Hello Beautiful People,


This is a new series of posts I'll be doing from now on where I'll be giving you tips about a certain subject but also some tricks to go along.To start it off,I'll be talking about beauty,I'll be giving you 5 tips related to the matter,some may be simple and others may sound strange but they are effective.Remember I am not an expert but I thought I would share what I know so GIRLS here it goes :

Number 1: This tip is for hair : When you're done washing your hair,don't use a towel to dry it instead use a T-shirt and that's because it helps to reduce frizziness and leave extra moisture.

Number 2: Here's a weird tip using a spoon: Take two spoons and throw them in your freezer and leave them there for awhile or over night and then take them out and put each one over an eye and leave it until the spoon is warm,that helps to reduce puffiness and dark circles under your eyes,it also helps to tighten the skin.

Number 3:Tip for nails : Olive oil or Allemand oil are great for the nails.Put some in a bowl and soak in your fingers for 5 minutes.It helps condition and strenghten the nails and when you're done don't waste that oil,massage it to your hands for extra hydration and nourishement.Put some gloves and leave it for extra minutes and then wash your hands and enjoy shiny nails and softer hands.

Number 4: If you are suffering from hormonal acne,here's a way to prevent it : STOP STRESSING ! Let me explain a little bit : When you're stressing out,you are increasing the level of  Androgen which is a stress hormon and the trigger of acne and even pimples.Therefore,stress is no good.I know that we all can't help it but we can tryharder to reduce stress and anxiety.

Number 5 : And last but not least,the most important beauty tip is :WATER.All of us know that water is the biggest need of the human body but it is also the number one tip when it comes to beauty.Try to drink at least 1 L of water and if not drink as much as you can,it keeps your skin healthy and feeling great,and it's even great for your hair.

And that's about it for tonight's post,I hope you enjoyed it and learned something new.Until next time,you have been great readers :)
