]]>Right Products
The products you use make all the difference, and it might be time to switch things up if you’re struggling to keep your hair clean for longer, starting with your shampoo and conditioner.
Washing Technique
It’s also crucial to have a proper washing technique and make sure to massage shampoo into your scalp before carefully rinsing it out.
Dry Shampoos
Using dry shampoos is a true lifesaver when you’re trying to extend the time between washes, but don’t make it a force of habit because they’re best used in moderation.
Have a Schedule
Sticking to a schedule is one of the best ways to ensure your hair is always in great shape. It’s up to you to figure out how many days you should go between washes, but let your hair get a little oily because washing it too often can strip it of its natural oils.
Different Hairstyles
If you can’t wear your hair down because it’s greasy, get ready to get creative with hairstyles, and consider trying ponytails, braids, and buns until your next wash.

]]>Set a Budget
Before embarking on your holiday shopping spree, know how much money you’re willing to spend. Research prices to determine how much money you should set aside, and stick to the budget because you’ll have many more expenses this holiday season.
Trusted Brands
Pretty much every brand has a holiday collection in store these days, but it’s best to shop from brands that you already trust instead of spending money on products with questionable quality.
Right Products
Holiday makeup bundles don’t come cheap, but you don’t have to buy the entire collection. Stick to products that you really like and that you’re missing from your personal collection, especially versatile products that you can use even after the holidays are over.
Sales & Discounts
If you’re buying holiday makeup products as a gift, you’ll have to act fast, but that’s not always the case. If you simply like the products and want them in your collection, you can wait until they’re available at a discounted price.

]]>The post How Often Should You Really Moisturize Your Face? appeared first on simbaly.
]]>Timing Is Everything
For most people, moisturizing twice a day—once in the morning and once at night—is ideal. This helps keep your skin hydrated throughout the day and replenishes moisture lost during sleep.
Listen to Your Skin
However, everyone is different. Pay attention to how your skin feels. If it’s feeling tight or dry, don’t hesitate to apply an extra layer of moisturizer. Oily skin, on the other hand, might benefit from a light, oil-free moisturizer once a day.
Consider Your Environment
Climate plays a role too. In dry or cold weather, you might need to moisturize more often. In humid conditions, you might be able to scale back.
Age Matters
As we age, our skin produces less natural oils. If you’re over 50, you might need to moisturize more frequently or use richer products. Remember, consistency is key. Find a routine that works for you and stick with it. Your skin will thank you!

]]>Don’t Rush It
Cutting bangs is an impulse decision for many people, but you should give it some thought. Don’t let your reckless nature take over, and take some time to consider if this hairstyle suits you.
Ask For Help
There are countless tutorials online showing you how to cut bangs on your own, but it’s less likely you’ll regret this decision if you get a pro to do it instead.
Right Choice
Bangs can range in length and style, and you should look for ones that fit the shape of your face. Visual aids can come in handy, so look for photos of people with a similar face shape to yours when trying to figure out what type of bangs to get.
Hair Type
Hair type should also play a crucial role in your decision to get bangs. They require less maintenance when you have straight hair, but things can get tricky with curly and wavy hair.
High Maintenance
Speaking of maintaining your bangs, keep in mind they’re a high-maintenance hairstyle. You’ll have to style them regularly and cut them often because they grow out at rapid speed.

]]>Foundations & Concealers
The tricky thing about foundations and concealers is that they have a pretty short shelf life, but once you find one that works for you, there’s no reason to buy another until you run out.
Eyeliners
Liquid liners will dry out after some time, so there’s no need to hoard them, and the only reason to have more than one is if they come in different colors.
Eyeshadow Palettes
Eyeshadow palettes are the flagship product of each new makeup collection, but they don’t come cheap. Luckily, you don’t need more than one, as long as it offers a wide range of versatile matte and metallic shades for every occasion.
Blushes & Bronzers
You also shouldn’t double down on other powdered products, such as blushers and bronzers, because they can last for a pretty long time.
Makeup Brushes
There’s no need to have more than one good collection of makeup brushes, and you’ll only have to replace them once they’re no longer in a good condition.

]]>Avoid Hot Water
Just as hot water can dry out our skin, it can weaken nails and make them become brittle. There are some instances where hot water can’t be avoided, but make an effort to wear rubber gloves if you’re washing up or cleaning, and try and take showers using warm rather than hot water.
(@beryl_fen)Use A Nail Oil
Invest in a natural oil such as almond or shea butter, and apply a thin layer to your nails before going to sleep each night. This will lend a natural shine to your nails, and make them stronger and healthier. Make sure you’re also using a hand cream during the day which focuses on nail and skin health.
Use A Nail Strengthener
There are plenty of clear gloss nail strengtheners out there, so head to your local drug store and invest in one. This will protect your nails from external stressors such as chemicals and hot water, and encourage your nails to grow stronger and longer over time.

]]>Henna is Totally Natural and Animal-Friendly
Many people are seeking out more natural beauty products now, as it’s widely recognized that harsh chemicals are not good for our bodies or for the environment. Unfortunately, many cosmetics are still tested on animals or use animal products, so for vegan and animal lovers this is not a great choice. Henna is a natural product, so it’s gentle on the skin and non-toxic to the planet, and animals aren’t involved in its production.
Henna Helps With Hair Conditioning
Most people find that after using bleach or box hair dye their hair is dry and damaged. Henna provides stunning color while also feeding the hair and scalp with much-needed nutrients, so the result is healthy, luscious locks with vibrant long-lasting color.

]]>Breakage Is Slowing Your Hair Down
Are you brushing your hair daily or raking your fingers through it regularly? Hair breakage can slow down hair growth and lead to an overall dull, frizzy texture. Take great care when brushing or detangling your hair, some people find it easier to do when wet but you do need to be aware that this is when hair is at its stretchiest and most flexible. Invest in a detangling brush and always start from the ends of your hair before moving towards the roots.
You’re Not Washing It Enough
It’s true that washing hair too much can cause it to become dry and brittle, but this doesn’t mean you should retire your shampoo bottle entirely. Cleansing your scalp helps to rid the skin of any buildup and oils that might be clogging hair follicles, and this is essential if you want to encourage healthy growth. If you’re currently using silicone-free shampoo, consider swapping in one with silicones once or twice a month for a deep clean.
You’re Feeling Stressed
Hair growth is one of the first things our bodies will pause or slow down if our whole system is feeling under stress. Check in with your own mental health, are there things worrying you at work or home that might be increasing your cortisol? Practice meditation or yoga to try and bring those cortisol levels down, and you should see a gradual improvement in the rate of your hair growth.
