Everyone has a right to feel fabulous! Making positive changes in your life is important for you to feel your best – however, there can be right and wrong ways to feel fabulous. Even if something feels like a good idea at the time, consider if it’s actually in your best interest in the long run; for example, comfort eating can make you feel better in the moment but can leave you feeling guilty later on.

For this reason, make sure that you are feeling fabulous for the right reasons! Not only can this improve your mental health, but also your physical health too. Take a look at some positive and more negative ways of making yourself feel fabulous:

Right: Be Proactive

If you have an issue that bothers you at the moment, act on this now, don’t wait until the problem gets worse as this only makes things more difficult. Be proactive about your health and the health of your skin, so if you have a deep forehead line that’s making you feel self-conscious, why not take action and get it sorted now?

Wrong: Eat and Drink Anything

While it can be tempting to eat and drink pretty much anything you want, it’s important to consider the effects this ‘indiscrimination’ can have on your skin! It’s wrong to believe that what we eat, or drink doesn’t affect us that much, be it in the short or long run, but the truth is that our skin – your body’s largest organ – is impacted by many different factors.

From the vitamins (or lack thereof) you take, to the excessive consumption of sugar or alcohol, you want to ensure that your skin remains as healthy as possible. after all, this organ protects you against external threats and, if damaged, it can make you more prone to issues, such as infection.

It can also make you feel less confident and fabulous about yourself, which is enough reason to make sure that you are eating and drinking healthily. So, instead of overindulging in the moment to feel better, opt instead to be careful about your food and drink intake, which can make you feel even more fabulous!

Right: Take Care of Your Skin

Again, it’s crucial that you take care of your skin’s health. A great way to ensure that you feel fabulous is to perform little steps that will amount to a great difference at the end of the day. Using sunscreen can help you to avoid early signs of ageing in the form of skin spots, for example, while exfoliating will get rid of those dead cells and smooth and purify your skin, helping it glow and have a more youthful appearance.

Other ways to take care of your skin also include avoiding smoking or heavy drinking, removing your makeup at the end of the day to prevent it from blocking your pores, and moisturising.

Because your skin is what people see first, taking care of it will ensure that you feel more confident about the way it looks; and healthy skin will make you feel more fabulous too!

Wrong: Cover Issues with Makeup

It’s natural to want to cover skin issues under a layer of makeup, especially if they make you feel insecure about yourself and you’ve been battling against the tide of a dwindling self-confidence for a very long time… However, feeling good in your own skin – literally – is key. Instead of wasting time and money masking those issues that prevent you from feeling fabulous every single day, opt for a more permanent solution.

Whether you prefer a surgical or non-surgical treatment, there are many cosmetic options out there that can help you to regain your self-confidence and ensure that you feel fabulous. Don’t hesitate to contact our professional team at the Aesthetic Skin Clinic to learn more about how we can help in this!

Right: Don’t Feel Guilty About Having Cosmetic Treatments

Lastly, but equally important for feeling fabulous all the time, is to not allow anyone to make you feel guilty about any cosmetic treatment you may have. There are many reasons why you’d opt for one and many celebrities are choosing them as well, so there’s nothing to be ashamed about!

After all, the most important thing is that you feel good about yourself and, if undergoing a cosmetic treatment helps you with this, there is nothing wrong with it. Let go of any pressure to conform and be happy with the way you look – and create your own idea of beauty without letting yourself be influenced by what others think.

 

You have your own way of making yourself feel fabulous, be it with a bath at the end of the day or that perfectly applied makeup before a girls’ night out. However, it’s important to ensure that they actually improve your self-confidence and health in the long term.
