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.
