Welcome to Beth's Beauty Biz

#1 Get plenty of sleep! I cannot stress this one enough. Sleep is essential in staying healthy and young looking. I personally get 8 hours a day. If you can get anywhere between 7- 8 hours then you have had plenty!

#2 Don't smoke. Smoking depleates all of the color out of your face and it causes wrinkles and it smells bad. Should I go on? To quit smoking Click Here! It just plain will not help you in your goal to look your best.

#3 Eat healthy foods as much as you can. I know there are alot of temptations out there, but eating healthy foods has sooo many benefits. Berries have antioxidents that help you fight off diesease. Vegetables have lots of fiber in them that can detoxifiy your body. Experiment with healthy food. You would be surprised at how many healthy foods are very tasty if you just try them.  I eat a very healthy diet all week and on the weekends I treat myself to a little something special like ice cream or popcorn or pizza!!! That way I can still have my favorite junk food, but in moderation.

When you eat healthy your organs function better in your whole body. You feel better and you are in a better mood. Your whole day can be alot less stressful if you eat healthier foods.

#4 Speaking of stress - De - stress your life. If you are an extremely busy person and you are stressed out all of the time. You will age very quickly! Studies are finding that stress can lead to cancer. To Find out how to De-stress the natural way Click Here!  Take time off once and a while. Relax. Treat yourself and your body to a day at the spa. If you can't afford the spa then do what I do. I call it "Day of Beauty" I buy all of my little home spa needs on ebay or the drug store (drugstore.com) and stock up on the following items: 1 packet of a mask ( single use, usually a $1) 1 packet of a hair treatment (single use, usually a $1) a little pedicure kit (Mary Kay makes a great one) or something to do a mini pedicure. A big bottle of lotion that smells good (Bath & Body Works), and slather it all over! You can add more things, but this is usually a nice combo. Anyway, I take time to do these things and you feel like you have just been to the spa. Oh! and I cannot forget the most important thing! Light that scented candle!

#5 Exercise! I know it sucks! I don't like to do it either, but we must if we want to stay looking young and gorgeous! Pick something that you halfway enjoy. Like, I like to be outside with nature, so I go for walks on a regular basis. I walk at lunch at the office. I know it sounds like something only elderly people do, but you would be surprised how good it is for you. It rocks! It has so many health benefits I could write a book about it, but I wont. Anyway, If walking isn't your thing then find something you like, like bike riding or hiking or swimming or dancing ect. I found out that if you do something you like to do rather than doing exercise as a chore then it is much more enjoyable.
