Looking effortless does not mean no effort. Those girls you see on Pinterest and Instagram who look like they just woke up like that, yeah, they actually have very high-maintenance routines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Being High-Maintenance To Look Low-Maintenance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But that&#8217;s the whole illusion. Being high-maintenance to look low-maintenance. The secret is doing all the prep work ahead of time so that your daily maintenance can just be autopilot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The 10 High-Maintenance Beauty Habits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, I&#8217;m going to break down the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lisapotterdixon.com\/blog\/zy4n8fxgrvzaz8gst7knaeaxegi22k\">10 high-maintenance beauty habits<\/a> that you should do if you want to look low-maintenance every day. But before you start stressing out about how time-consuming it&#8217;s going to be, these habits only take an additional 5 to 10 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Very Realistic And Easy To Fit Into Your Daily Schedule<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So they&#8217;re very realistic and easy to fit into your daily schedule. Because as an extremely busy person who runs her own business, trust me, I don&#8217;t have time to be doing the most either. But these habits have been in my routine for such a long time and they have definitely made my beauty easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Number One Is Gua Sha<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is one of those things that people say doesn&#8217;t work, but the problem is they don&#8217;t do it consistently. And duh, that&#8217;s kind of the point. But not everyone wants to be consistent, and it kind of shows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Achieve Long-Lasting Results<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With any sort of facial massage, or really any type of facial treatment, you&#8217;re not going to achieve long-lasting results after doing it just once. But doing this every single day for a long period of time will actually affect the appearance of your face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nothing I Found Compares To Gua Sha<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Genetically, I have a baby face, so I have tried to find so many ways to slim down this part, but nothing I found compares to Gua Sha. It will give you that subtly sculpted and lifted look without needing surgery or Botox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Facial Massage Dates Back To Thousands Of Years Ago<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Plus, facial massage has so many other benefits like improving circulation, skin tone, product absorption. And this is not some trendy beauty hack; facial massage dates back to thousands of years ago. So, if our ancestors swear by it, it&#8217;s legit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">I Like To Gua Sha In The Morning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I like to Gua Sha in the morning because I normally wake up with a puffy face and my entire Gua Sha routine only takes me like 5 minutes. I like to use any kind of serum first so that the tool can just glide easily and then I start with the sides of my face, up the neck, and then the d\u00e9collet\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Look So Awake And Fresh<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After doing this for so many years, I have definitely noticed a huge difference in how defined my facial structure looks. It takes almost no time and it will make you look so awake and fresh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Puffy Or Swollen Even Though You Haven&#8217;t Really Changed Anything<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the topic of improving circulation, your body can also hold on to excess fluid, specifically lymph fluid or cellular waste. And this is why sometimes you might feel puffy or swollen even though you haven&#8217;t really changed anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">I Really Love Dry Brushing My Skin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So this is why I really love dry brushing my skin. This is really great for exfoliating dead skin cells, improving circulation, and lymphatic drainage. This only takes a couple minutes, but with consistency, you will notice a huge difference in your body texture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">My Keratosis Pilaris On My Arms<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This has really helped a lot with my keratosis pilaris on my arms, which is essentially when your skin builds up too much keratin and then it creates these little bumps or chicken skin. Again, because this is really good at exfoliating, it helps to reduce the bumps here and just makes my skin a lot softer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">My Skin Looks Insane<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And after I shower and apply my body oil, my skin looks insane. It also just feels really good. It makes my skin warm and it&#8217;s like a little massage. I mean, who doesn&#8217;t like to be pampered?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">I Like To Just Massage My Lymph Nodes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before I use this, I like to just massage my lymph nodes. You have lymph nodes in special areas of your body, like your neck and then your armpits. So, I&#8217;ll just massage those for like a minute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Supposed To Brush Towards Your Heart<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And then I start with like my feet and then I work up to like my arms and like my chest. And with this, you&#8217;re supposed to brush towards your heart. So, I&#8217;ll start with the bottom of my feet and then I&#8217;ll just work my way up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Softer Bristles Or Firmer Bristles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They also sell different variations of this. So, you can find one that has softer bristles or firmer bristles. Some of them, they have handles, but I&#8217;ll link the one I have in the description if you want to check it out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Laser Hair Removal At Home<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of my favorite high-maintenance habits to stay low-maintenance is laser hair removal at home. And I&#8217;ve been using the Ulike Air10 for my at-home treatments. This uses IPL, or intense pulsed light, which is a hair removal method that clinicians have approved and that targets the melanin inside hair follicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Powerful And Safe Spectrum Of Light<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It uses a powerful and safe spectrum of light to reduce visible hair without damaging the skin. Because this works by targeting melanin, its effectiveness depends on the ratio between melanin in the skin and in the hair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">So Quick, So Painless, And The Results Are Super Long-Lasting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I absolutely love IPL compared to other hair removal methods because it is so quick, so painless, and the results are super long-lasting. I used to only shave, but I&#8217;ve cut myself so many times with a razor and then I&#8217;ll get those stubborn ingrown hairs after.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I Just Get 24 Hours With No Hair<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And because I have pretty thick hair, I will literally start to see the hair grow back the same day. It&#8217;s like, damn, can I just get 24 hours with no hair? Like, is that so much to ask for?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pretty Painful, Especially If You Have A Lower Pain Tolerance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I&#8217;ve done waxing, too, but it can be pretty painful, especially if you have a lower pain tolerance. I&#8217;ve also done traditional laser hair removal, but it&#8217;s so expensive and you have to physically go to a clinic multiple times to see results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Very Soothing On The Skin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, that is why I absolutely love using the Ulike IPL device. It has ice cooling technology, so it&#8217;s very soothing on the skin. It&#8217;s nearly painless. Like, I can barely feel it. And it is super quick and easy to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Consistency Is Key<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of course, with any beauty device, consistency is key. Similar to laser, IPL works gradually. For the first four weeks, they advise you to use it every other day. And then after that, you only have to use it one to two times per month for maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">This Was My Armpit Before Using The Device<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just to show you guys my progress, this was my armpit before using the device. And mind you, this was right after I shaved, but you can still see the stubble. And this is it now after using the Ulike Air10.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">My Underarms Are So Smooth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Such a big difference. My underarms are so smooth. And the best part is the results last such a long time. The Air10 is 65% more powerful than some of their previous models with a special SHR mode that delivers four flashes per shot, making this more effective at removing that stubborn hair in the underarm and bikini area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1,000% Worth It<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the best high-maintenance-to-stay-low-maintenance habit that I do. It is 1,000% worth it, and I love that I can just do it in the comfort of my own home. Thank you so much to Ulike for sponsoring this video, and there&#8217;s no commission code, so the best offer to get is on their website. I&#8217;ll put the link below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Consistent Skincare Routine<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Number four is a consistent skincare routine. Everyone talks about skincare. Everyone&#8217;s obsessed with skincare. But when it comes to having an effective and consistent skincare routine, the wheels fall off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Causing More Problems For Our Skin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We are so obsessed with buying and trying new stuff that it&#8217;s causing more problems for our skin. It does not matter if you have three products in your routine or a hundred. If you&#8217;re not using the right ones or applying them consistently, you&#8217;re not going to see the results you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Stuck With My Current Lineup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It took a lot of trial and error to figure out what works for my skin. But once I did, I stopped trying all the new stuff and I just stuck with my current lineup. And doing that has improved my skin more than any singular product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Twice A Day, Every Day, Without Fail<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When it comes to my skincare routine, I do it twice a day, every day, without fail. You would have to put me in a coma for me not to do my skincare. I&#8217;ve even done my skincare drunk. Okay? That&#8217;s how dedicated I am.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Never Skip Your Skincare Routine<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because leaving your skin dirty or dehydrated is going to quickly cause problems. So, never skip your skincare routine. I don&#8217;t care how tired you are. Stick to the products that work for you and don&#8217;t try to switch it up all the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Massive Difference In Your Skin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I promise, give it 6 to 8 weeks and you will see a massive difference in your skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Scalp Massages<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">High-maintenance tip number five is scalp massages. Listen, scalp care in general is severely underrated. Everyone only cares about their hair, but your hair originates from your scalp. So, we should really be taking care of this first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Healthier, Thicker, Shinier Hair<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to have healthier, thicker, shinier hair, you need to massage your scalp. Massaging your head increases blood flow, which nourishes the follicle and makes your hair grow. It also just relieves tension and headaches, which I experience very frequently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">This Silicone Scalp Massager In The Shower<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can just use your hands to massage, but I like using this silicone scalp massager in the shower. I will shampoo my hair first and then use this all over and really work the product in. And I noticed that my hair just stays cleaner for longer when I use this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Healthy Scalp Is Truly The Secret<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Oh, it just feels so good. I really needed this. Let me tell you, a healthy scalp is truly the secret to low-effort good hair days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Big Advocate For Blow-Drying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speaking of hair, I am also a big advocate for blow-drying it after you wash it. I consider this high-maintenance because I feel like most people just let their hair air-dry, and I used to do that, too. But air-drying leaves your hair wet for long periods of time, making it more prone to damage, frizz, and dryness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Heat Damage Depends On How Much Heat You&#8217;re Applying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, before you say that using heat on your hair is bad, not always. Heat damage depends on how much heat you&#8217;re applying to your hair. So, yeah, if your curling iron is 500\u00b0, of course, it&#8217;s going to damage your hair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shinier, Smoother, And Last Longer Between Washes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But blow-drying from a distance will actually make your hair shinier, smoother, and last longer between washes. When I used to air-dry my hair, I noticed that it would get greasier a lot faster. But now when I blow-dry, I can actually go 2 to 3 days without having to rewash or restyle it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Very Frizzy Hair Type<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I also have a very frizzy hair type. Like it&#8217;s straight, but it&#8217;s puffy at the same time. I don&#8217;t know how to explain it. So to me, blow-drying has helped just maintain the frizz. And once my hair is tame, my life just feels so much easier and I can focus on other things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Teeth Whitening<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Number seven is teeth whitening. As some of you know by now, I take my oral hygiene very seriously because even if you brush your teeth, floss, all that good stuff, if you&#8217;ve got buttery yellow teeth, people are just going to assume your breath stinks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Elevate Your Face And Your Smile<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Teeth whitening is high-maintenance and it can be a pain upfront, but it will 100% elevate your face and your smile, and that&#8217;s the best part about you. But for me, I don&#8217;t have the budget nor the time to go get my teeth whitened professionally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Teeth Whitening Strips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, I just use the teeth whitening strips you can buy at the store. I don&#8217;t do it every day, but if I have a special event, I&#8217;ll just throw one on, and it makes my teeth so much brighter. It&#8217;s like a little confidence boost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Stay Away From Coffee, Wine, Or Smoking<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other things I do to keep my teeth white is I just brush them properly with an electric toothbrush. And I stay away from coffee, wine, or smoking because those can all stain your teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Wearing Mouth Tape To Sleep<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Okay, this next beauty habit is very, very niche, but I promise it will change your life. Number eight is wearing mouth tape to sleep. This is both a beauty tip and a sleep tip. If you&#8217;re like me and you normally sleep with your mouth wide open, this is what I learned about that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Receding Chin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sleeping with your mouth open can cause mouth dryness, bacterial growth, bad breath, and gum disease. On top of that, if your mouth is agape for 8 hours every day, this will affect how your facial bones develop, and you might give yourself a receding chin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Forces You To Breathe Through Your Nose<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, mouth taping at night forces you to breathe through your nose, and this helps with sleep quality, reduces morning puffiness, improves facial posture, and even makes your skin look better long-term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">My Face Looks A Lot More Snatched<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I know this is a very weird high-maintenance habit, but I&#8217;ve been doing it for a couple months now, and I do notice that my face looks a lot more snatched. Plus, I&#8217;ve also stopped drooling, so thank God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Red Light Therapy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Number nine is red light therapy. This habit definitely feels the most extra and bougie, like you will look like an alien. But red light therapy has so many positive benefits for the skin. Every single wellness podcast, magazine, and blog talks about it, and science backs it. So again, this is not a &#8220;woo&#8221; concept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Trigger A Bunch Of Biological Responses<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How it works is that red light carries specific wavelengths of red and infrared light to the skin. And these wavelengths penetrate the skin and interact with cell mitochondria, which then trigger a bunch of biological responses. Some of these responses include stimulating collagen, reducing inflammation, and promoting healing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Penetrate Deeper Into The Skin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And when you use a serum with red light therapy, all those antioxidants and vitamins are able to penetrate deeper into the skin and have a stronger effect. There are so many LED masks on the market now, but not all of them are high quality or effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Right Wavelengths<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, if you&#8217;re going to do it, you want to get one that has the right wavelengths. For red light, it&#8217;s usually like 600 to 650 nanometers. And you have to make sure that it has enough LED bulbs in the mask itself. Basically, the more LEDs, the more effective light coverage you&#8217;ll have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">My Favorite Masks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My favorite masks are the CurrentBody one and then the Shark CryoGlow mask. I&#8217;ll also link these below if you&#8217;re interested in checking them out, but they&#8217;re not sponsoring me. I just love to share my recommendations with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Minimal Daily Makeup Routine<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Number 10 is a minimal daily makeup routine. I consider makeup high-maintenance because doing a full beat every day is kind of crazy to me. But just a minimal everyday makeup routine that you can do in 5 minutes will seriously elevate your look and make you feel more put together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The True Clean Girl Look<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But the secret to getting that true clean girl look and not clogging your pores is in the products you use. Obviously, you don&#8217;t need to use a full coverage foundation every day. Just a tinted moisturizer, a little bit of concealer, brow gel, and lip balm is enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Spent So Much More Time On Your Face<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trust me, this will make it look like you spent so much more time on your face than you actually did. And honestly, just taking a little bit of time for yourself can totally transform how you feel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">More Confident And Put Together<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like to be real, I do feel more confident and put together when I have a little bit of makeup on. I just feel more prepared and ready for my day. So find the right products for you and curate your own 5-minute routine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You Know What&#8217;s Best For You<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But if you don&#8217;t like wearing makeup or you don&#8217;t want to wear makeup every day, then don&#8217;t do it. Obviously, you know what&#8217;s best for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Your Everyday Routine Can Feel Effortless<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The secret to looking low-maintenance is not about doing the most every day, but it&#8217;s actually putting in a little bit of effort ahead of time so that your everyday routine can feel effortless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Make Your Life Simpler, Not Overwhelming<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you found this helpful and you want to try adding some of these habits into your beauty routine, just stick with one or two. Do not try to overhaul your entire life. The whole point of this is to make your life simpler, not overwhelming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>https:\/\/glownjoy.online\/wp-admin\/post-new.php Looking Effortless Does Not Mean No Effort I&#8217;m going to let you [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[31,33,32,29,30],"class_list":["post-125","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-beauty-habites","tag-clean-girl-aesthetic","tag-dry-brushing-skin-benefits","tag-gua-sha-benefits","tag-high-maintenance-beauty-habits","tag-low-maintenance-beauty-routine"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>0 High-Maintenance Beauty Habits for a Low-Maintenance Look - Glow &amp;
