New Years

Yes! It's the time of the year to make resolutions.. I suppose you could make resolutions any time of the year but everyone seems to make them in the new year. Just TRY to find a treadmill at the gym come January 1st.

 

Is anyone else horrible at keeping resolutions? I'm that person who always breaks my resolutions after, like, a day. In fact, the only resolution I think I've ever kept was my cynical resolution last year: DO NOT make any ridiculous resolutions.

 

I toyed with the idea of making the same resolution this year --but instead I chose to challenge myself like everyone else and make some beauty-themed resolutions (I know, total beauty nerd) and share them with all of you. This year I resolve to:

 

1). Wash my face every night
This is one of my least favorite things when I’m super tired and just want to fall asleep. Alas, especially with tons of great makeup wipes on the market it’s incredibly easy to do –no excuses!

 

2). Get enough sleep
I know I’m not the only one who doesn’t get enough zZz’s and let’s be honest –sleep deprive is never a good look. While there’s plenty of great eye-brightening dark-circle covering products, nothing beats a good night rest.

 

3). Not wash my hair every day
Dry shampoo is usually my best friend, but lately I’ve been washing my hair every day any way. Bad, I know. I think part of keeping this resolution will be finding some new “2nd day” hairstyles to try out.

 

4). Wash my makeup brushes more often
Guilty. I hate washing my brushes. Someone seriously needs to start a company that is like dry cleaning for makeup brushes where you can drop them off, pay a small fee and pick them up when they’re clean.

 

5). Get serious about skincare
I’ve been super good about wearing spf every day, but I think it might be time to kick up my skincare a notch or 2.  My skin is pretty lacking in the moisture department lately, and I feel like it might be time to look into gasp wrinkle prevention.

 

6). Toss. Giveaway. Donate.
Lately whenever I go through my makeup collection it’s like shopping Sephora, I find stuff I didn’t even know I had –some of it still in the package.  If beauty hoarding was a reality show, I would totally be on it. Organizing and eliminating is my new motto. Besides, my friends pretty much beg to shop my stash.

 

 

What are your beauty resolutions this year?
