LOOKING YOUR BEST DURING PREGNANCY
Pregnancy
is the time when there are lot of changes in your
body and this affects your appearance, life style,
looks and skin. While for some their skin starts
glowing and they look simply gorgeous however some
face a lot of problems with their hair, skin and
body. Read on to find out how you can look your
best when you are pregnant.
Following are the body changes
that you will experience during pregnancy:
Hair: Your hormones
profoundly affect your hair, during and right after
pregnancy. If you're one of the lucky ones, your
hair will grow thicker and shinier during your pregnancy
- but don't be surprised if it thins or becomes
brittle, instead. Your hair and scalp will be oilier
during pregnancy, and thus you're likely to have
a flaky scalp even if dandruff has never been a
problem for you before.
Tips to Look Good:
Keep changing your hairstyle after every 2 months
to look your best whether you've got more or less
hair while you are pregnant. To keep your hair looking
beautiful and lustrous experiment with different
shampoos until you find one that is compatible with
your hair's new personality and use it everyday.
Frequent shampoos will keep grease and flakes at
bay, and will keep your hair looking its best throughout
your pregnancy.
Face: Acne will
be another big concern for you during your pregnancy.
No matter how bad they become, stay away from medications
as they might affect the baby. Not all women have
this problem and you may luck out and find that
your skin clears up during pregnancy.
Tips to Look Good:
Be as natural as possible. Shop for a concealer
that covers blemishes while they heal. You may even
want to skip the foundation and use a sheer liquid
blush for a casual look. Please do not squeeze the
acne coz that will leave a scar and scars last longer
than they did back when you were younger.
Eyes: During pregnancy the shape of your
eyes change because of increased blood flow and
water retention.
Tips to Look good:
This is the time when you can flaunt those beautiful
eyeglasses. Wearing contact lenses is out of the
question so get yourself a chic new pair of fabulous
eyeglasses. Then, wear them while you try out new
eye-makeup looks.
Nails: Most women
find that their nails grow thicker and stronger
when they are expecting. Therefore this is the time
when you can experiment with different shades of
polish and have long nails.
Tips To Look Good:
If you like keeping long nails and couldn't because
of your profession then this is the time when you
can enjoy long nails. Experiment with brighter or
darker colours than you're used to - just remember
that with dark polish, chips show up easily so be
prepared to do frequent touch ups and maintenance.
However if you like to wear your nails short and
professional looking, be prepared to cut or file
more frequently.
Clothes: Your normal
clothes will not fit you and you must have been
advised to buy maternity clothes. But to be frank
maternity clothes are a waste of money, look ugly
and can't be used later on. So the best solution
is to borrow maternity clothes from your friends
whose taste you admire or get a few pairs of them
and do more of laundry to keep looking fresh and
clean. Instead of putting money into clothes concentrate
on accessories since these are the things you will
be able to use after delivery and for a long time.
