Why You Need to Take a Break from Your Beauty Routine

March 16, 2016 by Juliann

Looking your best and keeping up with the latest and greatest beauty routines unfortunately can be harmful to your health and even to your appearance. Here’s why it is important to take a break from…

..Eyelash Extensions

With the heavy weight of faux hairs in addition to sticky adhesives holding semi-permanent lashes for a full month, it’s important to let your natural lashes breathe and show them some TLC. Skip a month and apply a lash strengthening serum like Hydropeptide LASH ($96) which improves the appearance of lashes by strengthening them for a fuller, longer, less brittle appearance.

…Hair Extensions

Having hair extensions can pull on natural hair follicles leading to thinning and breakage. Take two capsules of NeoCell’s Keratin Hair Volumizer ($20) daily to provide your hair with all-natural beauty nutrients it needs. It is clinically proven to enhance hair strength and give you the thick and lustrous locks you are craving.

My hair gets fuller, thicker and longer when I take this supplement. It seems so much healthier and has less breakage.

…Gel Manis

Getting your latest gel manicure removed can damage and weaken nails. Take a break from gel manicures every couple of weeks and add biotin to your daily routine. NeoCell’s Biotin Bursts ($15) deliver 10,000 MCG of biotin in a yummy soft chew to promote nail growth, and maintain healthy skin and strong hair! Keep a bag of these on your desk or in your car to ensure you get your daily dose of beauty each day.

I love Biotin Bursts! They taste just like delicious tangy, fuity candy, so I have no problem taking them every day. When I take them on a daily basis, my nails grow so fast that I find that I need to stash nail clippers in my purse to keep up with them.

…Makeup

Wearing makeup can lead to clogged pores, redness, and uneven texture. Apply a masque like Arbonne’s RE9 Advanced Cellular Renewal Masque ($65) twice a week before bed. This masque gently exfoliates to visibly improve the appearance of skin tone and texture, minimize the size of pores and provide you with a radiant glow from within.

Arbonne’s RE9 Advanced Cellular Renewal Masque is the greatest! I use it twice each week, and it literally leaves my skin glowing and as soft as silk.

…Teeth Whitening

Going overboard with unsafe teeth whitening products can be extremely harmful. Instead, opt for Supersmile’s Professional Whitening Toothpaste ($21) that will gently lifts stains and rebuild enamel that may have been already damaged.

I love Supersmile’s Professional Whitening Toothpaste! I have been using it for only about a week now, and my teeth are already looking so much whiter!

Welcome to Beautiful Moms

Hi! I’m Juliann, a wife to my wonderful husband, Jon, a mom to four amazing children, and a proud grandma to five precious little ones. I live in Oregon.

When I first started Beautiful Moms Blog in 2008, my goal was to connect with and support other moms who were in the thick of raising young children. It became a creative outlet where I could share my thoughts on motherhood, review products I loved, and work with companies that help make family life a little easier.

More importantly, I wanted moms to feel seen. It’s so easy to lose ourselves in the demands of caring for everyone else and forget that our own well-being matters, too. I have always believed that every mom deserves to feel beautiful, valued, and appreciated, no matter what stage of motherhood she’s in.

Over the years, Beautiful Moms Blog has grown and evolved right along with me. Today, my children are adults, and I have embraced the blessings of being a grandma. My passion for encouraging women hasn’t changed—it has simply expanded to include every season of motherhood, from pregnancy and the newborn years to raising teenagers, becoming an empty nester, navigating healthy aging, and everything in between.

I’m excited to have my daughter, Myelie, as a contributor to Beautiful Moms. As the mom of a newborn and a busy toddler, she brings a fresh perspective on modern motherhood. She lives in Alabama with her military husband, so she also understands the unique challenges of military life, frequent moves, and building a home wherever life takes you.

Together, we’re here to support women through every age and stage of motherhood—from pregnancy to menopause—with helpful advice, honest product recommendations, beauty and wellness tips, and plenty of encouragement along the way.

We are PR Friendly and love working with great companies!
