tips for treating yoself

body:

Exfoliate once or twice a week.

Let your vagina breathe - don’t wear underwear to bed unless you’re on your period.

Change your pad/tampon/etc at least twice a day.

Don’t wash up inside your vagina (aka douching) it will tip the pH balance in your vagina and you will end up with an infection, you can wash around your thighs/pubic area but that’s it, same applies with perfumes and other body cosmetics.

Use coconut oil its good for so many things!!

Use body butters after getting out of the shower.

Use tea-tree oil for pimples.

Use sunscreen!!!

For people with oily skin - use blotting paper around your eyes and in your T - zone.

Don’t squeeze/pick at pimples - the bacteria on your hands will only make them worse and will create more redness.

Always use moisturiser before applying makeup

When washing your vagina, lift up the clitoral hood and softly rub your finger along the hood to wipe away dead skin cells. If you end up masturbating, fuck it.

Hair:

Wash your hair every 2-3 days. Don’t wash every day because it will make your head dry, try dry shampoos instead.

Use conditioning treatments weekly in the summer to prevent your hair from losing it’s colour.

Brush your curls with your fingers to create a more tousled look.

Before blow drying your hair use volumizing spray or gel on your roots for more definition in your hair.

Use shampoos that are sulfate free as sulfates dry and damage your hair quicker.

If your hair is greasy avoid conditioning the roots, just the ends.

Trim your hair every 6-8 weeks so you have healthy hair and no damaged ends.

Use avacado oil on your hair in the winter to stop your hair from drying out.

Dry shampoo is also very good for volumizing your hair.

The best way to get rid of ingrown hair is to exfoliate.

Avoid dry shaving your pubes, this will cause redness and spots which are easily treated with hydrocortisone cream or aloe vera.

If you are to shave, use conditioner instead of shaving cream - you will get a smoother result - that goes for anywhere you shave.

If you have a big ole mess in your pants try trimming your bush before you shave/wax it.

Waxing HURTS so if you’re dealing with the burns then place a cold towel in the sore area and leave it for about 15 minutes and then apply aloe.

If you experience chest/breast hair the best thing to do is pluck the hairs, it’s painful but rewarding.

Makeup:

Clean your makeup brushes, regularly along with any other makeup appliances (beauty blenders, makeup pads) in a mix of warm water and a little bit of soap.

Use a blotting tissue and then add a small amout of cream concealer onto your eye makeup to prevent smudging.

Matte lipstick goes best with a shimmer eye makeup.

Wearing white eyeliner counteracts the redness in your eyes.

To make your cheekbones appear higher, use bronzer under the cheekbone and highlighter on the actual cheekbone.

In summer if you want to avoid caking yourself with foundation - use tinted moisturiser or BB cream instead.

Always wash your makeup off before going to bed, don’t leave it on.

Always make sure you blend your foundation so your neck isn’t a different colour to your face.

Clean your makeup bag out every once in a while and get rid of any products you don’t use - its cleaner, tidier and more hygienic. 

Always make sure you have tape and q-tips handy. Tape is great for a perfect winged eyeliner and q-tips are great for cleaning and tidying up those hard to reach areas.

Concealer works great for a base for your eye makeup as the makeup will stick to it. 

Using highlighter and illuminators on your cheekbones, browbone and cupid’s bow for a “dewy look”.

When using cream products like eyeshadow or blush - use translucent powder to set it in place.

Kat Von-D lipstick is blow job proof :)

Replace mascara and eyeliners every 3 months or so.

Don’t share makeup/appliances for your eyes, it may cause infections like conjunctivitis and maybe a sty.

Blot your lips after applying lipstick to avoid getting lipstick teeth. 

General:

Change your bra every 5-11 days.

Always make sure your feet are dry before putting on socks and shoes to prevent fungal infections.

Wash blood stained clothes in cold water with 2 tablespoons of salt.

Try your own homemade beauty recipes.

If you peel/lick your lips it will damage them, don’t do that.

Applying eye cream on the cuticles of your nails will make them stronger and healthier.

Always carry tampons/pads even when you’re not on your period, someone else might need them.

Clean out your purse!! Get rid of all that junk and you will thank yourself next time you’re looking for something.

Masturbate. Whenever you can, it’s rewarding and good for you. (yes girls masturbate too).

Always pee after sex/masturbation to help avoid getting a UTI.

Bio-oil is good for stretch marks (as well as loving them).

Save some nice underwear for yourself and just wear your dead old pants when you’re on your period.

Buy yourself some nice underwear/lingerie whenever you can. Make sure it’s 100% cotton though otherwise you can get a yeast infection.

Test yourself every once in a while for STDs. It’s necessary.

Carry a condom on you, it’s not just the guy’s responsibility.

Apply a damp tissue to blotchy, red skin after crying, it will make you look as if you haven’t been crying at all.

Don’t let boys ruin your day.

Use a paperclip to clip the back of your bra straps together to create a racerback bra.

Wrap a maxi pad or pantyliner around any poking underwires in your bra.

Wash your pillow case every 1-2 weeks to help prevent acne. 

Cucumbers are good for dark circles and puffy eyes just place a slice over your eyes and leave for about 15 minutes.

treat and love yourself and your body will reward you!!! 

Cleaned up my desk, and it looks absolutely stunning!

Studying When On Your Period

If you’re like me, that period thing can be a life-ruiner. Your mood-swings are off the charts. You have to pee all the time. Some days you go through more tampons/pads than you want to admit (even if you change it “just to be safe”). The back pain is killing you. And don’t even get me started on the cramps from hell.

But life doesn’t stop just because you started menstruating. You still have an essay due; that exam on Friday is still happening. You need to study when all you want to do is curl up and watch Clueless for the 106th time.

Let me share the knowledge I gathered over the last 6-7 years of menstruation & school/uni.

Wear something comfortable. If you have to go to class, you don’t need to look like a super model. Leggings (or sweat pants) and an oversized shirt will do. You’re there for the knowledge, not other people’s approval of your jeans’ fit.

Get comfortable. If you can study at home, choose a study spot that allows you to get into a comfortable position. (Lying on my side is my go-to anti-cramp position.) If you need a smooth surface, take a kitchen tray into bed with you. You might even want to invest in a laptop table. They’re as cheap as £2.90 (Ikea) or £9 (Ikea)

Take a hot water bottle with you. Even to class. (I’ve sat with a bright red hottie in lectures before…) The heat will help your muscles relax and soothe the cramps. It even serves as a natural pain-killer. (More info here.)  

Drink water. Lots of it. Even if you’re going to have to pee every 30 minutes. You’re losing blood. Staying hydrated is vital!

You might want to get iron supplements. If your period is very heavy, you might be losing too much blood too quickly. Which means the iron levels in your body are dropping, making you more tired than usual. (And causing worse pain than usual.) Look into iron-rich foods or get iron supplements from the pharmacy. The ones I have taste like cherry. :) (More info here and here)

Take breaks. During your period, your life can seem extra stressful and you just want to curl up and watch Netflix. That’s okay. Do that. But only watch one episode. Then it’s back to work.

Try doing Yoga. If your cramps aren’t too bad and you can somewhat move (there have been days when I was barely able to walk to the bathroom), you can try doing some yoga. You don’t even have to invest in a yoga book or class or instrucional DVDs. There are lot of yoga videos on youtube. Start off easy. You just want to relax your muscles and calm your mind. You can exercise when the blood has stopped pouring out of you.

Take those pain killers if you need them. If all else fails and those damn cramps won’t stop and you have to get to class and get your shit together, you should take some pain killers. Please be aware of the negative effects that chemical drugs can have on your body! A lot of pain killers can have nasty side effects if you take too many of them. Don’t let (non-medical professional) others limit your intake – but limit yourself. Only you know your body and how bad the pain is. If you need medicine to deal with the pain, that’s okay. Make sure you don’t take more than you need though.

Please feel free to add to this list. Let’s make life a little easier for all the female students on tumblr!
