by

Although spring is still in it’s peak, it doesn’t hurt to already start working on that summer body of your dreams. How many of us, honestly, give up even before starting? Well, I’m definitely one of those people. However, when you really want something, you should go for it. Yes, it will be challenging, but once you start achieving the results you want, it will all be worth the hustle. And, if you need some extra motivation, we show you how to start working on that summer body you’ve always wanted.

Buy Running Shoes

If you haven’t done so yet, it’s time to go buy some running shoes. After a day at work or classes (or both) the last thing you want is to sweat yourself to death. But since nothing in life comes easy, it’s going to be time to make the sacrifice. In addition, doing sports will be much better for you than you expect, since you will not only lose weight. In fact, by exercising, you will also be able to disconnect and release all the accumulated stress of the workday. Especially if you are teleworking, as it will help you get out of the house and break the routine. Also, by exercising you will regulate your insulin levels, which will mean that you will not have moments of »uncontrollable» hunger or cravings.

Cook Your Food

The typical tip of eating healthy, but the truth is that it works like a charm. Instead of going out to eat out twice or three times a week, force yourself to cook at home. Because, although it may not seem like it, by eating outside not only we eat worse, we also eat more. By doing this, you will get to save money as well. Because, even if it doesn’t seem like it, going out to eat is expensive. In addition, you can start making healthier meals and learn to substitute some of your favorite snacks for some healthier ones. Knowing what you are eating and getting to make your favorite dishes your own way, is definetly worth it.

Stick to The Plan

It is useless to start working on that summer body if ​​you are going to eat fast food after two days because «it is only today«. The most important thing when it comes to losing weight is consistency. For this reason you must set weekly and monthly goals. In addition, try to go step by step, seeing how you are achieving your goals and stay motivated. If you also write down your progress, you will get even more motivated to reach your goal and get your summer dream body. Regardless if what you want is to lose weight, tone up or just look better, it all starts with a strict plan.

Eyelashes extensions are great and all, but before deciding to take that little trip to the beauty salon, there are few things you should know about getting them done. If you are a big fan of fake lashes, but you don’t have time to put them daily, your alternative would probably be getting extensions that will last longer. However, in addition to being pricey, it’s something that you cannot undo immediately. So, here are few things you should know before deciding definitively to get eyelashes extensions.

Pros vs. Cons

The positive part of getting eyelashes extension is quite obvious. You will have amazing lashes that look natural, and it would avoid u the hassle of applying mascara every time. In addition, they add a beautiful volume, lift your eyelashes and enhance your eyes and look.

On the other hand, applying lashes extensions is basically gluing them to your eye lids. This includes the risk of getting  formaldehyde inside your eye. Obviously, if done by experts, there is usually nothing to fear. However, do declare any allergies you may have in order to avoid an infection or a bad reaction to the special glue formula they use.

How Long Does It Take to Apply Them?

According to  lash expert Courtney Akai, this actually depends on what you want to get exactly. For example, if you have natural thin lashes, it’s extremely risky to opt for the dramatic Kim Kardashian look. Instead, she recommends to start with fewer lashes (50 percent of your top lashes.)

Further more, she explains that the process itself takes a couple of hours, but definitely need a year-round touch ups to make sure that they don’t fall off.

How Frequently Do You Need to Get Them Redone?

There is no specific period, although as mentioned, touch ups should be continuous. However, since it depends on each person’s natural hair growth cycle, every 4-6 weeks you should be getting them checked up.

In addition, Courtney stresses that if you experience discomfort or a burning feeling when you cry or shower, you must speak up as it could be alarming. Furthermore, during the first 48 hours, avoid direct interaction with water, make up removal, mascara and any type of chemicals since the lashes will still be sensitive.

Can You Still Use Mascara?

Yes, you can still apply mascara. However, it’s recommended that you only use it on the tips of the lashes, and make sure you press lightly instead of how u would usually put Mascara on. It is important to know though, that mascara damages natural lashes, and since lashes extensions are basically connected to your real lashes, they might end up falling off as well. So be moderate with using mascara anyways.

Do Lash Extensions Damage Your Natural Lashes?

According to Courtney, this is just a myth. Eyelashes extensions do not damage your natural eyelashes nor does it make them weaker, if applied properly. However, they do require extra care. Avoid rubbing your eyes really hard, make sure to remove any make up residues overnight, and above all, make sure to get them retouched every now and then.
