Spring is definitely on its way, and although there are still grey clouds out there, heavy rain and the threat of ice and snow, we are now on the home stretch of winter and ready for brighter days, sun and gorgeous spring blooms. However, winter can make us quite lazy when it comes to how we look and present ourselves and also we can forget that certain aspects of our home may need checking. This time of the year is the ideal time to really spend some time on yourself and on your home. With that in mind, here are some of the things to focus on now.
Your hair and skin may need some attention
In the winter, we can easily cover up bad hair days by simply accessorizing our outfits with a woolly hat of some kind. It is the ultimate winter fashion accessory but it just won’t cut it in the warmer months ahead. Of course, hats don’t need to be discarded entirely, but you may find that you want to give your hair some love and attention. Winter can actually dry out your hair and it can even cause you to have a dry scalp, so you may want to look into things like a decent shampoo for dry scalp or even a nourishing hair mask to bring those tresses back to life. You might also find that your skin is a little drier, due to you wearing more layers or being open to the elements of the harsher weather. Moisturizing and changing your skincare routine could be a wise option to start now.
What jobs can you do now in your home?
It isn’t just about preparing your body and your mind, it is also about thinking about your home and the changes and updates that may need to be made. Things that you may not have used over the winter months might need some attention, such an air conditioning unit. You may want to book in an emergency ac repair to ensure all is working as it should be. You might also want to think about other aspects of your home like your garden and exterior elements. Could you do anything now to improve them ready for summer?
It is time to really focus on the wardrobe
Your wardrobe might be full of jumpers and warmer things, but now would be a good time to get yourself a little more organised. While the cold weather hasn’t left us just yet, you probably don’t need all of the winter items you currently have stocked in your wardrobe. Give things a good clear out and leave yourself with a capsule wardrobe for the last few weeks of winter. Bring out your old summer clothes from storage or head to the high street as the latest seasonal trends will be in store. Now is the ideal time to mix the seasons ahead of the transition, but to be organised ready for the warmer days means you are just one step ahead.
I hope that this helps you get yourself ready for spring.
Let’s hope these tips help you when it comes to looking and feeling your best.
