How Do You Fight Stress?


How do you fight stress? Here are some ways:

Eat foods rich in Vitamin B2. Vitamin B2 is a well-known vitamin in helping your body relax and fight stress. So when you are feeling the pressure at work or your life at home, make sure to consume foods such as green leafy vegetables, fish, and eggs that are rich in Vitamin B2. These foods will help eliminate stress, and also the chances of the development of acne on your skin.
Exercise regularly. Regular exercises also help alleviate the effects of stress. When you exercise, your body releases endorphins, which help improve your mood. With a positive mood, you will notice a significant drop in your stress levels. Plus, exercising will also help improve your self-esteem by giving you a great-looking body.
Escape from stress. Whether it is a boring routine or work-related stress, you deserve the chance to get away from these stressors from time to time. Now if you feel trapped, all you need is to take a vacation or take a break from your routine. Once you return, you will feel refreshed, recharged, and ultimately, stress-free. Without stress, you won’t have to worry about pimples breaking out once again.
Seek help. You cannot carry the weight of the world on your shoulders—and you don’t have to. If you are feeling particularly stressed at home or at work, talking to somebody you trust always works. Whether you just need somebody to listen to you, or someone who can give you with sage advice, being able to have someone to tell your problems to will be a great way to deal with stress.

Hair Dressing Styles- Easy and Quick


Here are seven fabulous and easy ways to do your hair when you’re pressed for time. Your hair will look hot, and no one will ever know you slept in!
Get Rid of Greasy Hair
1. Get Rid of Grease
Beat oily “second day” hair with this easy trick: grab some baby powder if you’re light-haired or matte bronzer if you’re a brunette and apply it to your roots with a big fluffy makeup brush. This absorbs grease and makes your hair look fresh. Then just fix any stray strands with a flat iron; shake out your hair and go.

Messy Bun Hairstyle
3. Do a Messy Bun
This is the basic go-to staple for most college girls because it takes two seconds. Gather your hair on top of your head and wrap an elastic band around 2-3 times. Next, shape the bun with a few bobby pins that match your hair color, pull out a few ends to make it messier, and finish with a spray of hairspray.

5. Make a Chic Ponytail
If your hair is curly, use a little anti-frizz cream first. If you have straight locks, scrunch in curl cream to bring out some waves. Tease hair at the crown then pull into a low ponytail. Leave a ½ inch strand out and secure the ponytail with a clear elastic. Wrap the extra strand around the elastic and secure with a bobby pin.

This popular hairstyle is a great way to hide bangs you might be growing out, and is also very simple to do. Just separate the section of hair from temple to temple, tease it with a fine-toothed comb and secure with two bobby pins in an X. If your hair won’t stay in the bobby pins, tease the section more or use four pins.
