How to look great when you wake up
We’re sick of venturing downstairs every
morning with our pyjamas in a tangle, bed hair, under-eye bags and a
pasty face, so we decided to do something about it. Want to know how to
wake up looking glamorous and gorgeous? Here are 10 simple ways:
How to wake up looking gorgeous 1: Don’t sleep on your stomach
If you’re fond of sleeping on your front,
the first step to looking beautiful in the AM is to find a new preferred
pose for the PM. Sleep lines are caused by sleeping positions that
squash your face on one side. Did you know that the average head weighs
around eight pounds? Imagine all of that weight on your face – a recipe
for crinkled up morning skin.
How to wake up looking gorgeous 2: Satin or silk pillows
If you really can’t sleep in any other position than on your tummy,
invest in some satin or silk pillow covers. Not only does this mean that
you wake up feeling like a princess every morning, but these super soft
materials help your skin and hair to glide along them when you move
around in your sleep. Less friction and creases means less frizzy hair
and skin crinkles.
How to wake up looking gorgeous 3: Pile up the pillows
If you lie flat during your slumber, fluids can pool around your eyes
and make them appear puffy in the morning. By keeping your head
elevated during the night, the fluids don’t have chance to gather and
you wake up looking bright eyed and beautiful.
How to wake up looking gorgeous 4: Get your glow on
Say goodbye to the pasty morning face and hello to sun-kissed skin.
Before your bed time routine, exfoliate your skin, moisturise, apply
some false tan and then wait a few hours. Right before bed, wash it off
and go to bed fresh as a daisy. You’ll wake up with a sun-kissed glow.
How to wake up looking gorgeous 5: Wear your hair in a bun
We love voluminous hair in the morning, but that doesn’t mean we love
it to look like we’ve been dragged through a hedge backwards. The
controlled voluminous look is where it’s at! Pile your hair in a high
bun on top of your head to add some controlled volume. This way, your
hair won’t get in the way while you’re in the land of nod and when you
wake up it looks big and sexy. Va-va-voom!
