Tips on how to dress to look slim :)

Nobody is born perfect. Everyone of us have flaws , but however, it may be mentally depressing to see someone out there with a slim figure. In this post, i will be giving you some tips on how to dress for a slimming effect- No matter whether it’s the thighs, stomach or hips that you are looking at!

I guess the stomach is the area that most ladies are not satisfied with. We always see celebrities with flat stomachs in magazines and figures and we are wondering how do they actually achieve that? Do they actually eat or are they anorexic you may be wondering…Having  a potbelly is definately not going to look good and here are some tips on how to dress to make your stomach look flatter!

Firstly, do not wear pants or jeans that are too tight as you do not want your fats to be burgling out, wear big pants instead on the lower stomach to create a slimmer look.

Secondly, do not wear straight cut skirts and drawstring trousers. Wear flat panel trousers or skirts and pants with zips at the sides instead.

For ladies with big thighs, here are some tips:

-Wear open-toed sandals or wedged shoes, it will help (silly, but it really helps), dun ever wear kitten heels!

-Wear a bright top to take away the emphasis on your lower body

-Wear bootcut trousers / jeans instead of straight cut

-Wear A line skirts

-You may try going for a fake tan to create a slimmer look for your thighs(my friend tried it and it really works)

Well, that’s all for today. Hope the tips help. Nitez all.

Apply the mask to your face after cleansing and leave it on for 30 minutes and wash away with lukewarm water. The solution can be kept for a period of about a month if refrigerated, but normally, i will discard after at most 2 weeks to ensure freshness of the mask.

DIY Supple Skin Bath

Do have a bathtub at home? If you do, that’s superb! I am going to give you some Do It Yourself tips on how to have smooth supple skin while you are at home!

15-20 mins in the bath all by yourself is a great time for letting go of all your worries and stress. Imagine yourself being empty, your mind in a piece of tranquil – peace…..

Personally, this is one of my favourite DIY baths and normally, i will do it with a DIY mask when i am relaxing myself in the bath as well! This bath when coupled with the face mask, relaxes the whole body as well as make your skin look youthful, releasing it’s natural glow!

Here’s the recipe:

For the bath, use hot water with 8 drops of jasmine oil and 8 drops of fennel oil. Please only use 100% pure essential oils to obtain the best results for therapeutic effects.(Click here for my previous post on diference of essential oils and fragrant oils)

As for the facial, mix 1 cup of cucumber juice and 1/4 cup of honey and apply it onto your face and neck using cotton balls.Please remember to apply it upwards and not downwards and start it at the base of your neck and slowly stroke gently towards your forehead. Avoid the eye area and after applying the mask, quickly soak yourself in the bath that you have prepared for 15-20 minutes.  This DIY face mask and body soak will leave your skin tighter and youthful looking!

Also, do remember that this 15-20 minutes is a very personal time for you to be by yourself, totally relaxing in the essence of the bath, so please please, Do Not Let Anyone Disturb You!(No hubby, no children,no telephone calls,not anyone else, just yourself!!!)

I normally play some soothing music to allow myslef to feel the music penetrating to my heart, mind and soul while the bath and facial ingredients penetrating into my skin. Try t at home once – twice a week and you will see your skin improving while you achieve total indulgence and inner peace! Perfect for creating ageless, smoother and tighter skin!
