Summary of [Guide] 12 Simple Steps for a Glow Up
Key Wellness Strategies and Self-Care Techniques
- Achieve a Healthy Body Fat Percentage:
- Optimal body fat range: 8-17% for males (around 12% is best) and 15-25% for females.
- A Healthy Body Fat Percentage enhances facial definition and attractiveness.
- Supplement with Beta Carotene:
- Recommended dosage: 12-18 mg per day.
- Enhances skin tone attractiveness and provides a safer alternative to tanning.
- Caution: Smokers should avoid Beta Carotene supplementation due to cancer risks.
- Avoid Popping Pimples:
- Can lead to permanent scarring or hyperpigmentation.
- Focus on improving Skin Homogeneity and tone instead.
- Improve Skin Homogeneity:
- Use astringents to calm skin and brightening agents to correct hyperpigmentation.
- Reducing skin redness enhances overall attractiveness.
- Eye Health:
- Maintain clear, white sclera for eye attractiveness.
- Strategies include avoiding irritants, getting enough sleep, and a balanced diet.
- Facial Proportions and Hairstyle:
- Choose hairstyles that balance Facial Proportions.
- Experiment with styles that suit face shape; longer hair can cover flaring ears or larger foreheads.
- Eyebrow Shaping:
- Correctly shaped eyebrows can enhance perceived attractiveness.
- Medium thickness (25% of eye width) is preferred; thicker brows (33%) appear healthier.
- Correct Dental Issues:
- Address overbites or underbites through orthodontics or surgery for better facial aesthetics.
- Teeth Whitening:
- Wider, slightly off-white teeth are more attractive; avoid over-whitening to prevent an unnatural look.
- Treat Acne:
- Seek dermatological treatment for effective acne management.
- Accutane can provide significant improvements in a short time for severe cases.
- Head Positioning:
- A slight downward head tilt can enhance facial aesthetics but may exacerbate eye bags.
