I have
plenty of bad habits, from my behaviour in a public place right down to my beauty
routine. I didn’t think anything of my bad beauty habits till I did some
research and discovered eh, I’m actually damaging my body… (I know it’s not
rocket science to discover alright) so to make you all feel better here are my horrid
habits.
I’m ‘that
girl’ that picks off my mascara.
Don’t
judge me. I know you do it too. It is just so highly addictive to pick off your
mascara at the end of a hard day of looking sass. But ladies, like me we must
stop as we are physically ripping out hair that could save our lives in the
shower (aka shampoo in the eye syndrome).
Throw the
dull razor blade Soph.
Yes, yes
I am disgusting. I know. We’re all guilty of hanging onto a razor for far too
long… right? But the habit can actually cause serious issues. Keeping an old blunt
razor can increase your chance of a bacterial or fungal infection. So yes, I
have just spent a lot of money on an endless supply of razors.
I touch
myself 24/7.
Ha bet
that caught your attention. No it’s not what you first thought. I touch my hair
24/7, constantly playing with it, sorting it out and ripping it out as it gets
on my nerves so much. This of course can create spilt ends and in fact build up
oil in your hair. So, to help me defeat this habit I have been tying my hair up
anywhere I can. So while I’m sitting at my desk I whip it up and hope for the
best.
Oh chinny
chin chin
I am a
sucker for propping my elbows on a table and holding my head with my hands on
my chin. Well this is a big no no. Not only is it bad for your posture but it
can cause break outs on your chin and jaw line and well it just doesn’t look
sassy sitting like that.
Biting my
lips.
I bite my
lips on average 104 times a day. It seems to be a facial expression my face
just can’t get enough of. When I’m angry/annoyed/frustrated I frown and bite my
lip as a manor to keep my mouth shut, when I’m horny my first instinct is to
bite my lip (I don’t have a clue why) and when I witness something that makes
me cringe, you guessed it, I bite my bloody lip. This makes my lips incredibly
dry, however, I now apply chap stick every now and again so I can carry on
biting away.
Although
I think I deserve to give myself some credit. I regularly clean my makeup
brushes, wash my bedding, I don’t use fake tanning products and I clean behind
my nails everyday. So I’m not all bad!
What bad
beauty habits do you have? I’m dead curious!
