Change What You Desire, Accept What You Can’t Change

pixels.com pink

There are many little treatments and schools of thinking that can culminate into full confusion for someone who has beauty or self-confidence as a priority. There are some who feel that you shouldn’t ever change your perceived flaws, because the reliability of your own opinion may not always be accurate. For example, we see those with eating disorders often feel they are too large to be acceptable, despite having trouble eating anything for months. This is quite clearly a saddening affair, and never something to celebrate. However, if we feel that we dislike the shape of our nose, or the angle of our chin, or sometimes the extra skin we have from losing a large amount of weight – should we feel so bad about wanting to change this?

This can get quite confusing if you think it through in a complex manner, but getting to the heart of your needs and wants is essential when considering changing your appearance. To that we would offer a simple philosophy to help you through this – change what you desire, accept what you can’t change. Let us see how this can come into fruition in the best manner possible:

Change What You Desire

There are many who look down upon those who get corrective surgery, or wish to feel more confident by improving certain assets, or by getting rid of a perceived flaw. This is because we see celebrities who completely change their faces in an effort to preserve youth, or those for whom surgery becomes an addiction. But we do not feel the same way about someone who dyes their hair, or has a mole removed, or wishes to cover up certain stretch or birthmarks. So why should we feel bad about ourselves if we wish to have small corrective work done, such as digital smile design procedures to get that glorious, warm smile we have always wanted? Sometimes, expressing yourself more healthily can be achieved through these methods. In some cases, such as removing gynecomastia in young men, it can make all the difference in the world.

Accept What You Can’t Change

Accepting ourselves as a baseline consideration will always be appropriate, and worth keeping hold of. It might be that you do have that mole, or that birthmark that is hard to cover, or perhaps you have a lazy eye. Sometimes, instead of worrying about this throughout our entire lives, accepting what we can’t change is important. Sometimes, your perceived weaknesses are actually strengths. If you can achieve that, then you are sure to accept what you can’t change more thoroughly.

Develop Self-Love Habits

It’s not all about your image. It’s about who you are as a person, what you have learned, and the love you have to give. You needn’t be the most attractive person in the world, nor the most perfect. It sounds cliche, but it truly does matter what is inside. When you think alongside these lines, aging, physical flaws or imperfections will not affect you nearly as much.

With this advice, we hope you can change what you desire, and accept what you can’t change.

About Teddy the Dog: Teddy’s a hound of great renown… a divine canine, one might say. That’s why people dig his witty and clever spin on entertainment, pop culture, and all things dog (duh). He paw picks only the finest garment-dyed, ring-spun blended cotton, which makes his apparel softer than a puppy’s backside. But that’s not all—Teddy’s dog house is always stocked with bark-out-loud (#BOL) gifts and accessories, including drinkware, coasters, totes, blankets/towels, magnets, stuff to strut your mutt, and much more.

Whether you’re treating yourself or gifting something special, I think we can all agree the best type of gift is one that gives back. Fragrant Jewels, a beauty brand that creates bath bombs, candles, and scrubs with custom-designed rings inside, is officially expanding their Wildlife Collection.

The new Wildlife Collection features animal-inspired candles and bath bombs, and with every purchase, you will help rescue animals in need.

Every purchase of this product will provide 3-6 meals for a panda cub through Fragrant Jewels’ partnership with GreaterGood.org’s Project Peril. These meals go towards bottle-feeding cubs when their mothers are unable to care for them. Why is this so important? There are less than 2,000 Giant Pandas remaining in the wild!

 

Also, back by popular demand, the Elephant of Surprise Collection returns with a signature candle and bath bomb where every purchase provides care and protection for Asian Elephants through their partnership with GreaterGood.org’s Love & Bananas Fund.

Crave Smooth Skin You Can Be Proud Of? This Blog Is Just For You!

beautiful woman smooth skin

Every woman deserves to love the skin they’re in. Unfortunately, it’s one of the hardest things to achieve in terms of beauty. After all, your skin is continually exposed to the elements and other factors that can cause negativity. The good news, however, is that you can still achieve the desired look.

Use the simple steps in this guide for guidance, and you’ll be amazed at the results.

Protecting The Skin From Damage

Prevention is the best form of protection. So, if you want to keep your skin looking great, you should look for ways to reduce the amount of damage experienced in daily life. There are many ways to achieve this, including:

  • Always wear the right protection for your skin type and natural surroundings. Whether it’s sun lotion in the height of summer or a barrier cream in winter doesn’t matter. Protecting the delicate layers of skin is vital.
  • Stay hydrated and avoid spending too long in the shower. These simple tips prevent dry skin and will keep you in a far better overall situation. Using fragrance-free cleansers is another hugely beneficial step to consider.
  • Use anti-aging creams before bed to stop lines appearing prematurely. Even if you don’t show any signs yet, it’s better to stay on top of the situation rather than try to treat it once it’s too late. A thin layer is all that’s required.

Actively Rejuvenating The Skin

While it pays to prevent skin damage wherever possible, you will still see the effects on a regular basis. Treating the skin in appropriate fashion will make a significant impact. The best ways to do this include:

  • Using a derma roller as part of your daily beauty ritual to actively encourage rejuvenation of the skin. The tiny pricks promote collagen production and support other treatments. This provides a winning foundation for your daily routine.
  • Use facial masks at home. Whether it’s a store-bought product or a homemade natural creation that you’ve found on YouTube doesn’t matter. The benefits of applying the right product for your skin are very noticeable indeed.
  • Treat yourself to a spa day on a semi-frequent basis. A handful of treatments each year can truly transform the appearance and smoothness of the skin. The benefits extend far beyond your skin and can restore a sense of happiness to your world.

Going Beyond The Skin

While directly treating the skin is essential, you shouldn’t end your commitment there. The skin is the largest organ, covering your entire body. As such, it makes sense that you should focus on your overall wellness too:

  • Stay fit and healthy, following a balanced diet and getting regular exercise. From preventing stretching to opening up the pores, the benefits can be huge. Besides, you’ll feel far happier in yourself as a direct result.
  • Consider your hair style and color. The impact of the right choices won’t only influence the hair itself. It shapes the face and can complement your natural skin tone and appearance as well as the eyes. Embrace it.
  • Attend to health concerns. Your skin plays a hugely important role, and will reflect your health in general. Therefore, it’s important to seek medical support whenever you experience problems. Aside from helping your skin, it’ll aid your general health.
