Summary of "10 HIGH MAINTENANCE beauty habits that will make you look LOW MAINTENANCE"
Overview
The video reveals 10 high-maintenance beauty habits designed to create a low-maintenance, effortless look by doing prep work ahead of time. These habits are practical, taking only 5-10 extra minutes daily, and aim to simplify long-term beauty routines.
Key Beauty Habits and Tips
1. Gua Sha Facial Massage
- Consistent daily use sculpts and lifts the face, reduces puffiness, and improves circulation and product absorption.
- Use a serum for smooth tool glide.
- Routine takes about 5 minutes, focusing on the face, neck, and décolleté.
2. Dry Brushing for Body
- Exfoliates dead skin, improves circulation, and promotes lymphatic drainage.
- Helps reduce keratosis pilaris (“chicken skin”) and softens skin texture.
- Brush towards the heart, starting from feet upwards.
- Massage lymph nodes (neck, armpits) before brushing.
3. At-Home Laser Hair Removal (IPL)
- Uses the Ulike Air10 IPL device with ice cooling technology for painless, effective hair reduction.
- Requires consistent use: every other day for 4 weeks, then maintenance once or twice a month.
- Provides long-lasting smoothness, especially effective for underarms and bikini area.
- More convenient and less painful than shaving, waxing, or clinic laser treatments.
4. Consistent Skincare Routine
- Use a simple, effective lineup of products twice daily without switching frequently.
- Consistency over new products leads to better skin results within 6-8 weeks.
- Never skip skincare, even when tired.
5. Scalp Massages
- Improves blood flow to hair follicles, promoting healthier, thicker hair.
- Relieves tension and headaches.
- Use hands or a silicone scalp massager during shampooing for best results.
6. Blow Drying Hair
- Prevents damage from prolonged wetness, reduces frizz, and extends time between washes.
- Use moderate heat from a distance to avoid damage.
- Helps maintain smoother, shinier hair and reduces greasiness.
7. Teeth Whitening
- Use over-the-counter whitening strips for occasional brightening.
- Maintain oral hygiene with electric toothbrushes.
- Avoid staining substances like coffee, wine, and smoking.
8. Mouth Taping During Sleep
- Encourages nasal breathing, improving sleep quality and reducing morning puffiness.
- Prevents mouth dryness, bad breath, gum disease, and adverse facial bone development.
- Helps improve facial posture and skin appearance.
9. Red Light Therapy
- Uses red and infrared light to stimulate collagen, reduce inflammation, and promote skin healing.
- Enhances absorption and effectiveness of skincare serums.
- Recommended wavelengths: 600-650 nm with sufficient LED coverage.
- Favorite devices: Current Body and Shark Cryoglow masks.
10. Minimal Daily Makeup Routine
- Quick 5-minute routine using tinted moisturizer, concealer, brow gel, and lip balm.
- Avoid heavy foundation to keep pores clear.
- Enhances confidence and polished appearance without a full makeup “beat.”
- Tailor products to personal preference; makeup is optional.
Overall Advice
The key to looking low-maintenance is putting in small, consistent efforts ahead of time. Start by adding one or two habits gradually instead of overhauling your routine. These habits make daily beauty easier and more efficient, not overwhelming.
