Beauty Habits That Might Be Affected By Your Health Issues

Collaborative Post

When you think of the word beauty and what it means, it’s likely that you think of having your hair, nails, and makeup done. Have you ever thought about why you enjoy doing all of these things? The most common reason is that the end result is all of your best features have been accentuated, and you look and feel a million dollars. Did you know that sometimes health conditions can affect what kind of beauty products you use and habits that you form? Take a look at which health conditions could affect your beauty regime and how you can get around it.

For those that don’t know, psoriasis is an autoimmune disease that affects the skin and the joints. For those that suffer from their skin due to psoriasis, their beauty regime totally changes. Gone are the days of beautiful smelling creams, or bargain make up. Unfortunately, psoriasis flares up when certain creams and products are used directly on the skin, meaning that cheap or perfumed products are a no go. The problem here is that the appearance of your skin can quickly bring your self-esteem down - so what’s the solution here? When it comes to creams for your skin, you should only be using emollients that aren’t perfumed in any way. Your skin needs as much hydration as possible, and perfumed products will dehydrate your skin as well as irritate it.

When it comes to makeup, all is not lost either. However, you should be willing to spend a little more on your beauty products to ensure that there are no nasty chemicals that are going to cause your skin to flare up.

Surgery reversal

Sometimes you might be considering a reversal of surgery that you’ve had in the past due to health conditions arising. Perhaps you had breast implants and you’ve recently had your mammogram with irregular results? Or maybe you’ve been experiencing symptoms since having your breast implants fitted and you’d like them removed so that your health can return to normal? You should watch some breast implant videos so that you’re able to have all of the information before making an informed decision. Don’t forget that speaking to your surgeon or consultant will also give you all of the information that you need.

Insomnia

Insomnia is a condition that prevents the body from falling asleep as you usually would at bedtime. This can not only make you extremely tired, but it can affect your physical appearance too. You will notice dark circles under your eyes, wrinkles appearing more dominant, and even greying of your hair. While you can hide these features with foundation, hair dye, and anti-wrinkle cream, you should be looking for the source of the problem so that you’re able to sort your health out rather than masking it with beauty products. Speak to your GP and they will be able to offer you a range of different treatments that will allow you to get more sleep and also find out why you’re not sleeping in the first place.

Alopecia

A whopping 147 million people around the world suffer from the hair loss condition that is alopecia. Unfortunately, there is no known cure for this autoimmune disease, but there are ways that Doctors are able to help your hair grow faster to avoid the embarrassment that can come with the condition. While many men and women embrace their condition, it’s understandable that you’re self-conscious about your missing patches of hair, or even no hair at all. Luckily this is where makeup and treatments can really help. You can buy wigs for alopecia and for hair loss, and for hair loss on your eyebrows, you can use an eyebrow pencil to fill in what’s missing. The same for your eyelashes, you can buy yourself some fake eyelashes to make you feel more confident.

Health conditions shouldn’t mean that you can’t feel like a million dollars, so use this advice and before you know it your health conditions will no longer affect your beauty habits!
