Nurses are some of the busiest and most hard-working people I know. Today, I came across
Scrubs- an online magazine that offers practical advice for nurses. The topics discussed are beauty, health, mind, love, style, money, entertainment and of course, work.
I particularly enjoyed reading these articles: "Waking Up Looking Younger", "Dry Hands Makeover", and "The 60 Seconds Stress Buster". Here are some of the tips I learned from the site:
Cleanse, tone and moisturize. Never ever sleep with your make up on. Unclog your pores and wash off dirt using a mild facial cleanser. Use a gentle toner to clean excess dirt. Don’t forget to use a moisturizer afterwards.
Get enough rest. The best way to fight wrinkles and stress is to get enough sleep and rest.
Eat right and exercise. Yeah, we hear it a lot but it’s true and there’s no other way around it.
Eat a lot fresh veggies & fruits. Eat balance meals each day and practice regular exercise.
Use what’s in the kitchen. Why buy an expensive exfoliating scrub when you can use olive oil and sugar? Combine the two in a bowl and use it as a hand or body scrub.
Tweeze your brows. Well-groomed eyebrows can make you look younger. Tweeze your brows at night to give your skin more time to rest ‘til morning.
Moisturize your lips. When brushing, brush your lips gently and apply a lip moisturizer afterwards.
If you're a nurse or know someone who is, let them know about Scrubs for other useful information that they can use with their chosen profession.
