13 Daily Habits Most Women Have That Destroy Their Health and Beauty ...

Daily Habits—that’s a phrase that can seem harmless enough, right? But, oh boy, let me tell you, it's those innocent little things you do every single day that can sneakily become your own worst enemy. Especially for us women, as we juggle work, family, and trying to have some semblance of a social life, we might be picking up some habits that are doing more harm than good. Trust me, I know firsthand how easy it is to slip into certain routines without even realizing it. And since it's 2024, there's no better time to take stock and start anew!

So, let's dive into the world of health and beauty. Yes, those are big words, but don’t worry, I won’t throw around medical jargon or preachy advice. We're just having a friendly chat about those little daily practices many of us are guilty of, and here’s a spoiler alert: A lot of it starts with your morning routine. Ever hit that snooze button a gazillion times? Yep, been there, done that. We’ll explore how this habit can mess with your natural beauty sleep and make you cranky all day. Check out more on this in "The Snooze Trap".

Now, let’s talk about nutrition. I get it, life gets busy, and grabbing that quick snack or skipping meals can seem like the easiest option. But, spoiler alert, it’s sabotaging your health. You ever notice how a poorly timed sugar rush can wreak havoc on your skin? We’ll dive into how making some tweaks in your diet can be a game-changer. You might want to read further in "Snack Attacks: Friend or Foe?".

Speaking of snacks, let’s not forget about hydration. You'd be surprised at what just a little bit of dehydration can do to your cognitive function and skin elasticity. No joke, I used to think my endless cups of coffee counted. Turns out, not so much. We’ll explore hydration tips in "Water is Your Bestie".

But hey, it's not just about what you consume. Sometimes it's the little things, like bad posture or not taking a break to stretch now and then, that add up to back pain and stiff joints. The sedentary lifestyle of 2024 can sneak up on you—trust me, I once binged an entire series over the weekend without moving off the couch, only to regret it deeply the next day.

So, grab that cup of herbal tea, sit back, and let’s chat about making some small changes with big impacts. Because your well-being deserves a little TLC, and it's never too late to start.

Snapshot Survey

What's your favorite season of the year?

1. USING ONE TAMPON or PAD ALL DAY LONG

Pads or tampons should be changed every few hours. An old tampon or pad can cause an unpleasant vaginal infection and redness. Yikes!

2. WASHing YOUR BRA ONCE a WEEK

Experts advise that each bra should be washed after the third time we wear it.

3. Wearing a BLACK BRA in the SUMMER

Black bra in the summer is not a good idea. You don’t need a black bra to warm you in the summer and make you all sweaty. Just avoid them.

4. WEARING a BRA to SLEEP

This habit is very harmful. The bra presses your chest at night, and this interferes with the circulation and damages the breast tissue. So not good for your "girls"!

5. WASHING YOUR INTIMATE PARTS with SOAP

The vagina has its own cleaning mechanism, so soaps and shampoos are unnecessary. Just water is enough.

***

The use of harsh soaps can disrupt the delicate pH balance of the vaginal area, leading to irritation, dryness, and infections such as bacterial vaginosis or yeast infections. Fragrances and other additives found in many soaps can be especially harmful. If you feel the need to cleanse your intimate area, opt for mild, unscented products specifically formulated for this purpose. Moreover, avoid douching, as it can interfere with the vagina's natural flora. Embrace the body's natural processes and rely on gentle care for maintaining personal hygiene and overall well-being.

6. APPLYING ANTIPERSPIRANT DIRECTLY to YOUR SKIN

This is dangerous, it can irritate the skin and even cause breast cancer. It's best to apply it on your clothes.

***

While this belief might be pervasive, it's important to clarify that the link between antiperspirants and breast cancer is not conclusively supported by scientific research. However, antiperspirants can indeed cause skin irritation, especially if applied immediately after shaving or on broken skin. To minimize this risk, ensure your skin is dry and intact before application. It is also preferable to choose products free from alcohol and fragrance, as these can further aggravate sensitive skin. Nevertheless, applying antiperspirant directly to clothing is not effective and could potentially damage your garments. Always follow product instructions for safe use.

7. GOING out in the SUN without PROTECTION

It's very important to protect your skin from the sun rays, especially in the summer. Always apply protective cream on your face and hands.

8. Not REMOVing MAKE-up before BED

I know removing makeup takes a little time, but it's worth it. Because sleeping with make up can cause premature aging and skin problems. Who wants those?

9. Not VISITing YOUR GYNECOLOGIST

Your intimate parts need a special care. It's important to be aware of the health of your vagina in order to avoid unwanted problems.

10. SKIPPING BREAKFAST

Diets again? That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t make time for it. Skipping breakfast won’t make you lose weight, it will only hurt your metabolism. You will feel tired and this may effect your mood, too. Eat!

***

By forgoing your morning meal, you're also likely to miss out on essential nutrients. Breakfast is the perfect opportunity to get a dose of fiber, vitamins, and minerals that set the tone for your day. Plus, those who eat breakfast tend to have better eating habits overall and are less prone to snacking on unhealthy options throughout the day. Remember, nourishing your body in the morning can lead to more radiant skin and a more consistent energy level, helping you tackle your day with confidence and zest.

11. BITING NAILS

This habit is not easy to get rid of. Very often people bite their nails as a daily habit, induced by stress or boredom. This poor habit not only ruins your manicure, but also allows the bacteria to enter your body.

12. EATING Too FAST without Chewing

Many of us forget to eat in a relaxed manner. Very often we are in a hurry for something, so the meal takes us 5 minutes. Each meal should last at least 20 minutes. Swallowing food without chewing can only cause stomachache, gassiness and bloating.

13. ALWAYS ASKing for PERMISSION

Many women are asking for permission every day, whether it’s a boss or a partner. Girls need to get rid of this habit as soon as possible! Be your own “Master” and don’t waste your time.
