How to look good with a cold

Winter effects are starting to slightly lessen here in Alaska! Unfortunately, it's still about 16 F here and colds and flus seems to be coming around AGAIN. So here's some tips for you all trying to look fashionable with the sniffles.

1. Get enough sleep. I know this can be a difficult one for well, EVERYBODY to follow, since life is busy but having a cold is enough to drag you down and feel tired, so not getting enough sleep could make it that much worse making you feel and look exhausted. Eat well and go to bed early and you'll get over it twice as fast!

2. Be prepared for work or school. Bring emergency things such as extra tissues, cough drops, medicine, lots of water to keep you hydrated and extra concealer if your nose starts to get red or if you get bags underneath your eyes.

3. Make sure you're staying hydrated to the max. water and loads of moisturizer to flush out that cold and keep your skin looking good.

4. For a red irritated Rudolph the red nosed reindeer noses, try putting on a layer of clear lip chap to sooth, protect and hydrate the skin.

5. If you are someone who uses makeup, when putting it on during a cold, its purpose should be to make you look bright and fresh. brighten your eyes using concealer and foundation, use a light blush to give you some color and use a nice bright color on your lips. You want to look nice and awake.

6. Dress for comfort and warmth. Scarfs and sweaters, please.

7. Don't let having a cold ruin your day! Smiling is always a way to look great.

Good luck with your cold, and I'm sure you look wonderful regardless! ;).
