Pen down the next best steps we have for you, sorted out in weeks so you won’t be overwhelmed and take it in a good pace!

FOR YOUR SKIN

WEEK 1:

The first step to kick start your skincare journey is to see a dermatologist. While your friends and family are all in to lend their advice, it’s always the best option to go see a professional and understand your skin type to work ahead.

WEEK 2:

Let’s continue with the basics – stop touching your face! Keep reminding yourself to get those pesky fingers down and away from your face. Twice a week, wash your pillowcases and clean your phone screen preferably daily. All those bacteria smear around your cheek and spread to your face, causing major breakouts and acne you can easily avoid if you follow this hygiene.

WEEK 3:

Clean your makeup brushes – it’s one of the most overlooked tasks but makes a humongous difference to your skin’s condition. Also, keep in check what beauty products cause you to breakout. Maybe it’s time for some cleaning there as well. Along with these, exfoliate and use a facemask twice or thrice a week. You’ll find your skin being able to breathe, look, and feel fresher.

WEEK 4:

For the remaining days, bring focus to your lifestyle. Limit your alcohol intake and detox your system with at least eight to ten glasses of water every day. Include more green leafy vegetables and fruits to your diet, and cut back on sugar and dairy the most. Your skin and body both will be thankful.

FOR YOUR BODY

WEEK 1:

Before you set out to get fit, have a goal and plan strategies to stick to it. Include days you’d be missing, days you’d be doing a little extra. Go in detail so you won’t have to feel jammed once you’re at it. As far as exercising goes, experiment. Try Tabata, Pilates, Muay Thai, boxing, or yoga. Find what interests you and keeps you motivated.

WEEK 2:

Choose your plate wisely. The first step to get a better body is to feed it better food. Avoid processed, salty, fried, and sugary foods. Alternatively, include more fruits, vegetables, nuts, and set fixed timings for your meals. Start paying attention to how your body reacts to different things you consume.

WEEK 3:

Say goodbye to being a night owl. However much you get done without sleep, your body will eventually crash and unveil the exhaustion on itself. No matter the work timings for you, get at least 7 to 8 hours of sleep every day. Besides, try incorporating meditation or yoga in your routine. Not only will it help tone your body but also calm you emotionally and spiritually.

WEEK 4:

Start walking – literally. Use the stairs, travel by feet, choose to stand rather than sit, dance, walk in the park for 30 minutes. By simply increasing your steps taken you’re losing not only weight but also clearing the sedentary out of your system. According to experts, walking 10,000 steps a day is best for losing weight but that being a lot for beginners, you could start with a mere 100 steps and then go up from there. Say hello to the better you.
