To Lazy for Beauty

I am never too tired to wash my face and I always find the time to put on blush. However laziness happens to even the best of us. While I consider myself a beauty obsessed individual lately I have been slacking in three particular areas. So while a totally plan on getting back on track there are some things I am kind of happy not doing. Here are the 3 things I have been too sluggish to do lately. 

Exfoliating
Before we get crazy here I "technically" have been exfoliating. However rather then the typical scrub I have been using the chemical solutions instead. I love chemical exfoliators and they do some fantastic things for the skin but the bottom line is I have missed using a scrub. For me nothing soughs of dead skin and makes your skin as soft as a physical scrub so back to scrubbing I will go. 

Nail Polish 
In October I was wearing a lot of red nail polish, so in return I was gifted with some gorgeously stained nails... not. This whole yellow stained mess made me give up nail polish for a while. At first I was itching to paint my nails but now my nails my nails have never looked better. The whites of my nails are white and I've also noticed my nails are stronger. I do plan on painting my nails again but I am throughly enjoying having them au natural. 

Eyeliner 
My basic makeup look use to be composed of mascara, lip gloss and eyeliner. I wore eyeliner daily for years and years! As of late maybe due to rushed mornings, change of tastes but I have neglected this beauty product entirely. While I use to throw the winged eye liner look every morning I am kind of liking the minimal look. For me my perfect basic look is sheer wash of eye shadow and a good coat of mascara. I might throw on a liner every now and then but I don't see my self going back to my old liner self any time soon. 

 For me using a scrub twice a week is a must and something I know my skin loves. As for the nail polish I love my naked nails but  I will be itching to paint them soon. However, on the other hand there are those things we don't do because we just aren't into it anymore, like eyeliner. Some might call it slacking but it's in those times where we forget or ignore a product we see how much we really missed it. 
Have you been lazy with a few products recently? Leave me a comment!

  1. I think we all need a break from time to time, even with things that we generally like using. I do that with nail polish once in a while. Normally I paint them a couple of times a week but then I'll take a week or two off. I do think it helps to keep your nails healthier.

    1. Glad to hear I'm not the only one slacking in the eye liner department.

  4. I've been slacking with the eyeliner. I always wore liquid liner, but have stopped. I prefer to just throw on some mascara to finish my eye looks. Great post!

    1. Same!
      I find that if I apply mascara really close to the lash line it gives the look of liner but without the added effort.
