Random Beauty Big Sister Advice 💐💋🪩

Here are my random big sister beauty advice! Enjoy!!!

Fix your posture

Some of you did not get pinched in the shoulder blades when you were slouching growing up and it shows

Every time you sit or stand up take the time to roll your shoulders back. Just do it as a little reminder everyday (multiple times) and your posture will improve.

If you can’t hold it without it becoming uncomfortable or tiring you need to do some core workout (a lot of inner core specifically) because that means you muscles aren’t strong enough to keep your spine strong. Which also means you can be more susceptible to injuries.

As much as you hate it healthy is 100x prettier than unhealthy.

Almost all the beauty standards are based on your health.

Proper diet and exercise will make your skin glow and your hair shiny.

Under eating or eating junk shows on your face and hair.

Muscles are sexy

I swear to you there is no way for you to become “bulky” by picking up weights.

You need to strengthen train for that toned look.

In order for your muscles to get really bulky you have to be in a pretty heavy calorie surplus be hitting a very high protein level. You also have to have the gene to build bulky muscles and the bone structure which is not as common in women. You can’t really do it on accident.

Even women who can put on muscles really fast are not bulky they are built. It’s giving she hulk and it’s hot.

To look put together you have to do the 2/3rds rule.

Only one part of your outfit can you neglect. Either your hair, makeup, or outfit. But it should never be your hair.

Learn to do really quick easy hairstyles and you will never have bad hair. I am almost always in Dutch braids because they are simple and I can do them quickly.

Also adding jewelry always gives your outfit more flare.

Learn how to alter clothes always have cute clothes.

You can find really simple tutorials to turn that body tank top into a fitted tank so easily.

Usually you just need a needle thread and scissors but if you have a machine you can do so much.

Do your nails

If you don’t like color or fake nails make sure they are always filled and clean.

Nails can be extremely cheap or extremely expensive you just gotta find what works for you.

Get a good nail oil as well for extra care.

Your body is not the problem you just don’t know how to dress and compliment her.

Stop looking at girls whose body is nothing like yours for outfit inspo.

Depending on your proportions things can look vastly different on different people.

Figure out your body type and shopping gets so much easier.

That’s all for now I might continue this series slowly but I just ended my spring break and classes have started so if I disappear don’t worry I’m just being an academic weapon.

Good morning. Israel will fall and Palestine will be free

Things To Do Before 2025🪩🦢🍾

Hey cutiesss!! Hope you all are having a wonderful holiday season! Here are a few things to do in the weekend before the new year to level up and start 2025 on the right foot!

Vision board

Digital or physical spend some time placing pictures from Pinterest that you want to represent your year of progress.

Deep clean your space

Starting fresh and clean with new organization and systems.

Go through your closet

Get rid of anything that doesn’t fit you or doesn’t suit your style.

Set up your planner and calendar

Make sure all important dates are on there and that you have a full calendar of fun activities come January.

Clear out your emails

Go through and make sure you have all your work done for 2024 and that you don’t take any into the new year.

Clear out your social media

Go through who you follow and unfollow anyone that no longer serves you in a positive light. Don’t follow anyone that makes you feel bad about anything.

Write goals

Write out attainable goals for the new year and the steps you must take to reach them.

Write out your habits and how you want them to change

I do this by going through my day and writing down my routine also by looking at my screen time to see what I do and when. Then I can understand how I spend my time and how I can use it more efficiently. Also adding habits that will help you reach your goals is the best way to achieve them.

Hope this helps! I hope you guys have a very very happy new year!

Definitive Guide to Eliminating Anxious Thoughts

Are you struggling to deal with negative thoughts? It’s something that happens to all of us. That’s why I’ve put together this guide to help you break free from them. With practice, you’ll leave behind old negative thought patterns and adopt new, more positive ones. Remember, it’s also important to feel and accept our emotions, but we can’t allow a negative thought or belief to ruin our emotional well-being.

1. Redirect Your Thoughts – Consciously shift your focus to something positive, like a happy memory or a recent achievement.

2. Write in a Journal – Express your emotions freely in writing to process and release them.

3. Meditation & Visualization – Practice guided meditation or visualize a peaceful, anxiety-free future.

4. Create a “No-Thought Zone” – Set specific times when you completely forbid yourself from thinking about the issue. If needed, postpone it to a set time later in the day.

5. Use Positive Affirmations – Repeat phrases like “I am at peace with my decisions” or “I let go of what no longer serves me.”

6. Focus on the Present – Stay grounded by paying attention to your breath, bodily sensations, and surroundings.

7. Engage in Enjoyable Activities – Keep your mind occupied with hobbies, exercise, movies, or socializing to cultivate emotional well-being.

what april taught me ꪆৎ ˚⋅𓂃

you cannot emotionally punish someone for a standard that you created in your head

people will lie. people will hurt you. all you can do is to keep moving on in good conscience, knowing that you did your part

how you treat yourself is a reflection of your self-respect

TRUST. YOUR. GUT. you need to come in clutch for you.

neutral self-talk is better than negative self-talk. small steps, baby steps

an apology is not a quick fix

acceptance is also not something that is owed, to apologies given

if someone demands that you pick a side – between them or another party – i think it's rather obvious which side you pick.

TRUST THAT GUT OF YOURS i can't make this more clear!!!

the people who are right for you will make it known.

after honouring your feelings... sometimes you really just need to say "it is what it is" and move on instead of harbouring that grief and anger for ages

rejection is always redirection but it'll only feel like it once your mindset changes!! :')

water water water water water water

everything gets easier and more pleasant after 10 mins, you just need to push through the first 10

Old ways won't open new doors
