š”Most people are beautiful, people who donāt believe that to be true have a lot of trouble accepting themselves which makes them negative and cruel and they really might need help with hygiene 𤨠š”
Im complaining that people who are insecure or hate themselves may be cruel because of that. Most people who think theyāre ugly just need a little help.
Read this like Iām an angry bitch. Give me an evil British accent I wanna come off like Iām one of those mean sexy secretary ladies that are clearly judging you. Cuz Iām totally complaining and not just trying to give unsolicited advice⦠I mean, itās at least a rant..
I know a lot of people can be down on themselves and others because they donāt feel great about themselves. I realize that most people donāt have access to resources that can help them feel more attractive or clean.
[This is a baseline, some things work better for others- you donāt need to be the cleanest most perfect person ever]. Being cleaner than someone else, in your eyes, isnāt an indicator that what youāre doing is more correct or even less harmful than not doing it at all (Iām talking to you, daily shampooers)
Hygiene.
CHANGE YOUR UNDERWEAR EVERYDAY. (I had to get this out of the way)
Use any deodorant- old spice is cheap and good and works for all genders, in my experience. Iāve heard mixed reviews on dove and some other brands..
Wash your hair twice a week with any shampoo and conditioner you think works for you. I like the oxy coconut stuff thatās about 6$ per bottle at Walmart. All this is depending on your hair type.. if your hair is straight, do what Iām telling you to do here.
My husband is black so Iāve kinda picked up on what helps with curly hair but Iām not entirely qualified. š use products made for curly hair for sure tho
Floss at least once a day before you go to bed, thatās how your teeth gets extra yellow and food being stuck in your teeth causes cavities. Bad breath, and other gum issues that could be causing problems.
Brush your tongue. it is not immune from the stink
Brush your teeth when you wake up and when you go to bed. You might be thinking āwell I donāt eat in my sleep why would I have to do that?ā ⦠your mouth gets gross.. idk why. It just does. Maybe your sleep paralysis demon is washing your mouth out with nasty ass air or something. Just brush your teeth when you get up. Someone tell me why this happens
Exfoliate. Man, woman, anything in between. Exfoliate. Use a scrub or a sponge or whatever youād like. Exfoliate your arm pits, your creases, under your tiddies, elbows, crotch area (do not put sugar by your crotch,) feet, and your legs. This helps reduce ingrown hairs that can hurt you, become infected, or create unwanted texture. Also gets rid of dead skin and will get rid of bumps you might get from shaving šŖ
Moisturize. After you shower, and especially after you exfoliate, you need to moisturize. The heat and the humidity can actually dry your skin out crazy style. Jergens, cerave, coconut oil, anything you got, lather it all over everywhere except your face.
You need to use different soap and moisturizer for your face, neck, and chest because the skin is thinner and more sensitive in those areas. Some products can also clog your pores. Coconut oil will do that too.
Cerave is great with their lotion, you can use their body lotion on your face because itās pretty much the exact same ingredients as their face moisturizer. There are so many different skin types so you might have to experiment but usually a good gentle cleanser by cerave and some moisturizer is all you need.
You donāt need to over complicate it at all. Personally I like to use hyaloronic acid and castor oil along with my moisturizer tho
Use sunscreen. Face sunscreen is different from regular sunscreen. Use them both. I donāt care if youāre brown, use the damn sunscreen.
ā¦.. chap stick and water is your god that you should worship.
Vaseline ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļøš¤¤š¤¤š¤¤ ā¦
You hoes donāt need to shave or use makeup or perfume or cologne if you donāt want to but you need to wash your body and moisturize that shit.
And like obviously eat a fruit and drink water- thats a whole other thing that I could get into but Iām not trying to make this any more impossible to read lmao
I think it also goes without saying that you should be at least a little bit active but this post is kinda about hygiene not just about doing things that make you feel healthy. Everyoneās gotta start somewhere
ā¦
There are some things that might help if you do feel ugly even after some self care. You donāt need straight teeth but whitening them can be helpful- crest whitening strips remain the greatest of all time. Wearing makeup doesnāt make you ugly, itās okay to play with mascara or concealer. There are a ton of helpful low budget videos on YouTube about where you can get good cheap makeup and how you can apply it :)
Dress like an adult or at least a kid with a lot of swagger. Or at least wear clean clothes
This is separate from those who make beauty their career or livelyhood, this is more so about teens who struggle and need some help with hygiene or older individuals who become sorta hateful and insecure- I think the average person is holding everyone to an impossible standard when they just sorta need to feel clean and moisturized.
Honestly, Iām just rambling at this point lol
The only ugly people on this planet that exist are those who donāt take care of themselves at all specifically because they donāt think they can, or genuinely hateful people who donāt want to change.
