tired face Archives ~ Superloudmouth

These days most of the people are crazily occupied with busy schedules and not having time at least to doze off. Similarly, if you're having very little sleep, travelling quite often, facing hectic days and whatever might be the reason, you get tired. The tiredness shows up on your face. Subsequently, your face appears to be dull, droopy and worn out. So, if your life is on such a roller coaster ride, don't worry. I've got some tips and tricks to not look tired and droopy. But first, let us interpret the reasons which make us look tired, dull and droopy. These things make you look absurdly tired! Insufficient Sleep The reasons for a tired looking face are many but the most common reason is poor sleep. Sleeping well is not just about how many hours of sleep you had the last night. Its also about setting a proper sleep time and sleeping patterns. The way you sleep, the time you sleep, posture in which you sleep, the sleep duration, everything matters. Before sleeping try to settle yourself for the night like come out of all the stress, relax your body & mind, sleep at 10 pm at least, and be aware of the bright lights to get the ultra-relaxing deep sleep. Caffeine consumption Drinking coffee early in the morning will eliminate the antioxidants which protect your skin's elastin. Also, it dehydrates your skin by making it dull and dry. The dry skin obviously will lead to wrinkles. So, many dermatologists recommend switching to green tea which has less caffeine. Dehydration Dehydration keeps you awake all through the day and night. Especially, during the nights, you'll face irregular periods of sleep. So, that makes you look lethargic and tired when you wake up in the morning. To overcome this problem keep a large glass of water by your bedside and refill yourself whenever you feel dehydrated. Also, make a habit of drinking 2-3 litres of water each day. Using expired Makeup I think this is probably one of the worst reasons behind all the skin issues. Every Makeup product has an expiry date including the sunscreens. When you use the products which already got expired, your skin may prone to several issues like wrinkles, droopy eyes, blackheads and dullness. Check with your makeup products once in a while and declutter all the expired stuff. High intake of Processed, Salty and Sugary foods The processed foods and refined sugars will not only make you fat, they're also dreadful for your skin. Such foods will leave behind the end products which can lead to collagen breakdown and that leads to skin breakout, wrinkles, and dullness. Eventually, your face looks tired as usual. The salty foods also will wreck havoc on your skin. They dehydrate the skin and makes it look dull and exhausted. So, don't consume such foods in excess which ruin the appearance of your skin. Sleeping on your stomach Like the sleeping patterns, the postures you sleep is also equally important. Our body releases fluids from the bloodstream during nights. These fluids also get accumulated around the eyes and thereby you'll end up with bags under your eyes. These eye bags make you look lethargic and tired. A Cold/Flu The seasonal allergies like a common cold, sinus, and fever will give you a dull and tired appearance as they create dark circles under your eyes. Certainly, if you're experiencing continuous sneezes that will make you tired in some couple of hours. Rubbing your eyes Rubbing eyes though makes you comfortable, it darkens the area around your eyes which can make you look tired and gloomy. In addition, rubbing your eyes too often can damage your eyes since the eyelashes, dust particles and foreign particles present in the surroundings of your eyes can lead to scratches on the cornea. If there are some particles present in your eyes then rubbing the eyes won't be a solution instead you will observe tears, redness and inflammation. Staring constantly at the blue light When you're constantly staring at the laptop, mobiles and TV screens, the blue light emitted from those electronic devices will strain your eyes leading to dryness, blackheads and fine lines around the eyes. These make you look tired and gloomy. So, take a minute every 30 minutes to walk around. Also, don't use any electronic devices before an hour of sleep. Try these 10 Natural tips to not look Tired and Droopy 1. Cool your face with Ice cubes The effects of an Ice cube on the face are extremely incredible. Ice cubes are actually the inexpensive products which can treat any skin problems such as pimples, inflammation, puffy eyes, dark circles, wrinkles and many more. Any treatments with ice cubes is an amazing home remedy for tired and puffy eyes. In addition, it really works well with under eye bags because it closes the pores and makes your skin look smoother. Rubbing an Ice cube all over the eye is an instant remedy to make your face look more alive and refreshed. What to do? Take a clean cloth and wrap an ice cube. Then start rubbing all over the eye area. Once your ice melts down, wipe your face with a tissue. You can also make an ice cube with few drops of lemon juice and olive oil. Ice cube reduces swelling, lemon tightens the skin and olive oil adds extra moisture to the eye area. Similarly, you can make face packs with ice cubes using some amazing ingredients like Green tea, Tomato, and Aloe vera. 2. Frozen Veggies/Tea Bags can do the trick It may seem quite strange but the frozen veggies will also do the job perfectly. You need to put a bag of frozen veggies on your eyes in the morning as soon as you wake up. It opens up your eyes and makes your face look alive and refreshed. Identical to the ice treatment, the frozen veggies will surely help to cure the sleepy and droopy face. For the under eye bags and tired looking face, green tea bags are amazing. They're so great for your skin. The antioxidants in green tea will diminish away all the skin problems. Put the frozen green tea bags on your eyes and just lay back. After a few minutes, when the tea bags are no longer cold, move them under your eyes in circular motion. Later, rinse your face and pat dry. 3. Cold Spoon! The most simpler way to get rid of the eye bags and tiredness is by using cold spoons. You feel like you're wearing a cold eye mask. You can also notice the heat coming off from your eyes. So, when you're working on busy schedules or when you feel so tired, I suggest you, put cold spoons over your eyes. They instantly de-puff your eyes and will give a fresh appearance. What do you need to do? Take two spoons, place them in a freezer and wait until they get cooled. Once they've cooled, gently place them on both your eyes and starting pressing with little pressure. The cold and the pressure will vanquish the eye bags and tired face. Keep the spoons on your eyes until they're no longer cold. This is a simple trick to de-puff your eyes. 4. Apply a cool Moisturizer to your skin For that extra dose of morning refreshment, apply a moisturizer all over your face. Store the moisturiser in the refrigerator for that extra cooling effect and revitalisation. If you apply a moisturiser correctly on your skin, it boosts hydration in your skin, prevents flakiness and dullness. Most importantly, it creates a layer of moisture that lasts the whole day. So, find out the best moisturiser with the refreshing ingredients like caffeine or green tea. I would suggest you buy the Clinique Moisture Surge 5. Using a Facial Mist Facial mists will refresh the skin any time of the day. These thermal mists are a quick fix for the dull and tired face because they refresh, hydrate and pamper your skin. Face mists are basically fluids that are packed with nutrients which helps the skin to retain back the moisture. So, for that instant hydration and revitalization use a thermal mist for sure. Spray them onto your face and leave it on for a couple of minutes. Let the skin absorb all the mist and then pat dry. The best thermal mist I've ever known is Avene Thermal Water 6. Don't skip Breakfast and Water We're so habituated to have a cup of coffee as soon as we wake up. Do you know, if your consuming coffee first, it dehydrates your skin? It's actually the worst way of waking up. Try to replace the morning coffee with some detox drinks, a heavy breakfast and some plenty of water. This helps your skin to replenish and rejuvenate each morning without producing eyebags and tired looks. 7. Make a Ponytail Face-lift Besides to all the natural tips, pulling your hair into a high tight ponytail will instantly open up your eyes. Because a high and tight ponytail will pull the skin upwards. Eventually, you will not have droopy eyes and tired looking face. So, as pulling your hair up into a high ponytail makes you look a lot less tired, tie up your hair tightly so you look refreshed. 8. Let's give a chance for Makeup! That said, you need not go for intensively heavy makeup. Firstly, start with curling your lashes. Curling those lashes will make a big difference to a hundredfold. It instantly opens up your eyes before doing the natural treatments. After curling, apply some mascara to your lashes. If you don't want mascara just go gaga with curled lashes. Remember to do this hack every morning to not look tired throughout the day (not only when you look tired). After finishing the first two steps, its time for the eyeliner and eyeshadow. Apply a black coloured or any colour eyeliner to the waterline and apply a white coloured eyeliner to the corner of your eyes. You can also, apply the white eyeliner to your waterline so as to feel more alive. Finally, end up the eye makeover by applying some eyeshadow. I prefer a natural colour or gold colour. Next up, apply a concealer to the dark areas like under the eyes and the corners of your nose. It conceals all the dark circles and darker areas which are the sole reason for a tired face. Dust off some powder. If you're not a lipstick person, add some tinted lip balm to your lips. It completely changes the appearance of your face. Tinted lip balms will never give a tired look. So, investing in good makeup products will not burn a hole in your pockets. 9. Dress up with flattering clothes and accessories Never compromise and go wrong with the dress you wear and the accessories. Of course, we invest a lot in dresses. So, wear some flattering clothes on a tired day and layer your dress with scarfs, glasses, hats and what not. The way you get dressed up also completely changes your looks from tired looks to astonishing looks. 10. Light exercises every morning It's a great job to wake up in the morning and perform some light exercises or stretches. However, for most of the people getting up early in the morning is a complex task. The light exercises and stretches will help you a lot in not looking tired the whole day.
