6 bad beauty habits to break in 2017

Look your best by saying goodbye to old vices - by New Idea
  • 12 Jan 2017

Bad habit: Not re-applying sunscreen

Good habit: It’s simply the best anti-ageing advice we can give you, so get adopt the habit of topping up throughout the day or set an alarm on your smartphone as a reminder. One shot glass is needed to cover your body. We love: Natural Instinct Invisible Natural Sunscreen, $15.95 (100g).

 

Bad habit: Brushing wet hair

Good habit: Young or old, hair is more fragile when it’s wet and if you brush it will create frizz and breakage. Use a comb or a brush designed to be used on wet or dry locks.
We love: Tangle Teezer, $29.95(so too Victoria Beckham and Emma Watson!)

 

Bad habit: Sleeping on your stomach

Good habit: Switch to sleeping on your side.
Sleeping on your stomach creates pressure and deepens wrinkles according to Radical Beauty, How to Transform Yourself from the Inside Out, Deepak Chopra and Kimberley Snyder, $37 (Penguin, Random House). A silk pillow slip will help keep skin looking smoother by morning and extend a blow dry too.
We love: Shhhsilk, the Aussie brand of New York-inspired pillowcases, also loved by Kim Kardashian (who requested personalized cases) and Gisele Bundchen, 2 x white marble silk pillowcases, $139

 

Bad habit: Not moisturizing your body because it’s too hot.

Good habit: Switch to a feather-light hydrating lotion that won’t make you feel sticky in the heat.
We love: Avenno Daily Moisturising Sheer Hydration Lotion, $12.99

 

Bad habit: Too lazy to take off makeup

Good habit: keep your cleanser in the shower and cleanse and then cleanse again especially in summer to remove water resistant SPF sunscreen properly. Or try a micellar water which cleans thoroughly with just a makeup removing pad - no water necessary!
We love: Goodness Every Day Cream Cleanser , $16.95 Natio Cucumber & Aloe Micellar Cleansing Water, $14.95 (image)

 

Bad habit: Not trying new makeup
Good habit: A good place to start experimenting is a brighter lipstick shade. After all, you can always wash it off.
We love: Burt’s Bees 100% Natural Lip Crayons, $16.99 each, Designer Brands Moisturising Lipstick, $9.99
