stuff there are a few things that you

play01:12

can do before an important event or

play01:15

before you have to go out somewhere to

play01:17

instantly uplift your skin one is

play01:19

shaving your face for that peach fuzz

play01:22

now I use these simple single blade

play01:24

razors from sany to remove any unwanted

play01:26

hair and this is a part of my weekly

play01:29

routine which means I do this once a

play01:31

week regardless of whether I have to go

play01:33

out or not and the hair does not grow

play01:35

back thicker or coarser I don't know if

play01:37

you can see it on my face but there is

play01:40

no coarse hair and I've been doing this

play01:42

shaving thing for quite some time now

play01:44

like 3 years at this point but yes if

play01:47

you have never tried this before please

play01:49

do a patch test because you might have

play01:51

sensitive skin that might cause redness

play01:53

or irritation and if you have active

play01:56

acne on your skin like a lot of pimples

play01:58

or if you have skin Sensi sensitivity

play02:00

already then please consult with a

play02:02

dermatologist before you go ahead and do

play02:05

this but shaving your face basically

play02:07

exfoliates your skin and also gets rid

play02:09

of those micro hair and this helps your

play02:12

skin care go in a lot better and your

play02:15

makeup go on a lot smoother it looks so

play02:19

good the next thing I do is sheet masks

play02:22

the night before I have an important

play02:24

event or a shoot and this is like a mini

play02:26

facial at home it hydrates the skin

play02:28

makes it more plump so the next morning

play02:30

of course it's looking better it's

play02:32

looking fresh radiant glowy all of those

play02:35

good things right but I always always

play02:37

avoid getting an actual facial or using

play02:40

products that I have not used before

play02:42

right before an important event or a

play02:44

shoot right so I will stick to sheet

play02:46

masks that have worked for me in the

play02:48

past this is to ensure that I'm not

play02:49

trying out any new ingredient that can

play02:51

cause irritation or acne or redness

play02:53

similarly with facials they can make

play02:56

your skin get worked up and irritated so

play02:58

it's best not to do them immediately

play03:00

before like you have an important thing

play03:02

coming up and finally I also use these

play03:04

acne patches the night before um if you

play03:07

get like breakouts or your pimples this

play03:09

is a great way to deal with them quickly

play03:12

I'm PMSing currently so I have like

play03:15

active acne there's a pimple here

play03:16

there's a pimple here and the reason

play03:18

that they've gotten this small is

play03:20

because I have been using these acne

play03:22

patches for the last two nights they

play03:25

have some active ingredient which

play03:26

basically like shrinks the appearance of

play03:28

your pimples over night or like within

play03:30

two nights and that's really really

play03:34

helpful now I know that body odor is not

play03:37

something that you can see but if you

play03:39

smell bad that automatically makes you

play03:42

look less polished and less attractive

play03:44

you could be wearing the nicest outfit

play03:47

you could have the best makeup on but if

play03:49

you have bad body odor that can

play03:51

completely ruin your look don't worry

play03:54

there are a couple of ways to fix it the

play03:57

first thing you want to do is reduce

play03:58

odor like reduce the source of your body

play04:00

odor so if you have smelly armpits try

play04:02

wiping them down with glycolic acid or

play04:05

witch hazel or even apple cider vinegar

play04:08

after you shower apple cider vinegar and

play04:11

glycolic acid have actually worked

play04:12

really well for me in the past when I

play04:14

was in my uh late teens and early 20s

play04:16

which is when you tend to get a lot of

play04:18

body odor because your hormones are

play04:20

changing over time with age for me that

play04:22

issue has gone away so I don't get bad

play04:26

body odor now but initially when I did I

play04:28

used these two things and also make sure

play04:31

that you wash your armpits very very

play04:34

regularly with soap and with water

play04:36

because there's a lot of bacterial build

play04:37

up in your skin folds and keeping it

play04:40

clean is one of the best ways to prevent

play04:42

body odor the second thing you want to

play04:44

do is use a good roll on deodorant and

play04:47

carry it around with you don't just

play04:49

leave it at home I love love love love

play04:52

this loxitane one I've been using it for

play04:54

5 plus years it lasts super long and yes

play04:58

it's a little bit on the expensive side

play05:00

of things but one bottle can last me

play05:02

like 2 years so I don't mind the price

play05:04

and over a period of time it's actually

play05:06

not that expensive girl math and I

play05:09

personally love this one because it does

play05:11

not have nasty ingredients and it smells

play05:14

wonderful so it prevents any sort of

play05:17

body odor if I just apply it once a day

play05:19

it works for the entire day so it's

play05:21

super effective proves to be super

play05:22

affordable because it lasts really long

play05:25

and I love the smell third thing you

play05:26

want to do is make sure you do not have

play05:28

bad breath the smelly armpits is not the

play05:31

only way to get bad body odor so make

play05:33

sure you are hydrating regularly a lot

play05:36

of the times when you don't drink enough

play05:38

water that can result in bad breath but

play05:40

if you constantly have bad breath get it

play05:43

checked out because it could be because

play05:45

of a gut health or a dental issue

play05:47

however if it's a one-off thing and you

play05:49

don't want to just have that spewing on

play05:52

other people carry mouth fresheners as

play05:55

simple as that I carry a box of mint in

play05:58

my bag always you can can also do clove

play06:00

or elii long or elichi because they are

play06:03

great uh homemade mouth fresheners that

play06:05

work really well as well and the final

play06:07

thing you want to do to smell good is

play06:09

have a signature perfume scent now when

play06:12

you do all of your showering and your

play06:14

deodorant and your body lotion and then

play06:16

you layer that on top with a perfume it

play06:19

actually helps you keep the aroma loged

play06:21

in for longer so that obviously cancels

play06:24

out a lot of that body odor and it helps

play06:26

you smell so fresh and nice all of the

play06:29

time and secondly having a signature

play06:31

fragrance actually helps people

play06:33

associate you with that fragrance right

play06:35

it's a nice way of creating that sense

play06:37

of familiarity and comfort and when you

play06:40

combine it with all the other steps on

play06:42

this list basically people start to

play06:45

associate you with looking and smelling

play06:48

good and again you do not have to invest

play06:50

in expensive perfumes just to smell good

play06:53

AAL does a great range of budget

play06:55

perfumes in fact one of my go-to daily

play06:58

fragrances is Sacred Love from ajal I

play07:01

absolutely love it I've been using it

play07:03

again for like 5 plus years and I always

play07:06

have a couple of bottles in stock

play07:07

because what if they stop making it

play07:09

tomorrow and I can't find it anymore

play07:11

Zara also has uh great budget fragrances

play07:14

so go take your pick find a good

play07:15

fragrance and use it

play07:18

[Music]

play07:20

regularly your hairstyle can make or

play07:22

break your look and I think your hair

play07:24

has one of the biggest impacts on how

play07:26

groomed and Polished you look now a few

play07:29

things you can do to instantly Elevate

play07:32

the quality of your hair or your

play07:33

hairstyle is one taming your Friz I know

play07:37

that for some hair types that's a lot

play07:38

more difficult to do than other hair

play07:41

types but from all the people that I

play07:43

have spoken to and including my own

play07:46

experience I have found that if you do

play07:48

good prep for your hair that can

play07:51

actually help you tame your F to quite

play07:52

an extent now what do I mean by good

play07:54

prep this means one oiling your hair

play07:57

before you wash them and then using a

play07:58

good mask that is suited for your hair

play08:01

type after you've washed your hair I

play08:03

have been using B Blunt's intense shine

play08:06

hair mask which is my ideal solution for

play08:08

hassle-free costeffective salonik hair

play08:11

at home so after I've washed my hair I

play08:14

squeeze out all of the water and then

play08:16

take a good amount of the mask and apply

play08:18

it along the ends of my hair and leave

play08:21

it on for at least 10 minutes now this

play08:23

duration is super important because the

play08:25

ingredients in The Mask need time to

play08:28

penetrate your hair shaft properly if

play08:30

you wash it off too quickly they're not

play08:33

doing their job right but if you leave

play08:35

it on for the correct amount of time it

play08:37

helps make your hair smoother shinier

play08:39

less frizzy and then after I have washed

play08:42

my hair I will let it air dry to about

play08:45

80% and then I will go in with my hair

play08:47

serum and my drying brush to give myself

play08:50

a blowdried look and you can use my code

play08:54

ad 2024 to get 20% off on ban.com you

play08:58

can also find that product products on

play08:59

Amazon naika and Flipkart okay now there

play09:02

is another reason that I absolutely love

play09:04

using be blunt products they have been

play09:07

involved in increasing female employment

play09:09

in empowering women to earn and support

play09:12

themselves so every time you buy from

play09:14

them be blun actually links your order

play09:16

to a woman that they are empowering

play09:18

alongside the samab foundation through

play09:21

their B Blan shine Academy they are on a

play09:24

mission to empower 10,000 women across

play09:27

the country so if you want to be a part

play09:29

of this the details are going to be in

play09:30

the description so after you've tamed

play09:32

your fris the next thing you want to do

play09:34

is add volume to your hair now I

play09:37

understand that this is like a straight

play09:38

hair fine hair oily scalp problem but I

play09:41

have been facing it for the longest time

play09:43

and one of the best hacks that I have

play09:45

found to add volume to your hair is to

play09:47

use dry shampoo my hair gets oily the

play09:51

next day after a wash so if I don't use

play09:54

dry shampoo I will have to wash it every

play09:56

single day and that's not a good thing

play09:58

so what I B basically do is spray some

play10:01

dry shampoo on my roots and then flip my

play10:03

head massage the dry shampoo into the

play10:06

roots and comb it through and I

play10:09

instantly have a non oily scalp and more

play10:12

volume in my hair and finally for when

play10:15

I'm using a hair tie or tying my hair

play10:17

back I like to use either a wax stick or

play10:20

a hair gel with like that mascara wand

play10:23

thingy to basically not have flyways

play10:26

again just like I hate Friz I hate

play10:28

flyaways and they just irritate the hell

play10:30

out of me so I tame them with this gel

play10:33

spoolie and that's very very convenient

play10:36

now before I sign off on the hair thing

play10:38

keep in mind that not all looks suit

play10:41

everybody I absolutely don't like

play10:44

slickback looks on myself even though

play10:46

they are trending so much right now

play10:48

everybody is doing slickback looks but I

play10:49

found that certain hairstyles look

play10:51

better on certain face shapes on certain

play10:53

body types Etc and I personally feel

play10:56

that open hair or loser hairstyle sty

play10:59

suit me well as opposed to like a

play11:01

slicked back look because then I start

play11:03

looking like an egg and I don't want

play11:06

that so use hairstyles that look good on

play11:08

you instead of just following Trends

play11:11

[Music]

play11:13

blindly this allows you to make a

play11:15

statment and draw attention to your

play11:18

favorite features so a focal point is

play11:20

essentially like a center piece that

play11:22

makes your outfit stand out and captures

play11:25

the eye okay and why I love focal points

play11:28

is basically it allows me to style my

play11:31

entire outfit around that one thing so

play11:33

it's also like a creative exercise and

play11:36

that ways your entire look compliments

play11:38

that focal point and you look a lot more

play11:40

polished and put together I start by

play11:43

picking the item that I want to use as

play11:45

the focal point so today for me it is

play11:47

this gray one shoulder top it's very

play11:50

nice it's very Sleek it's very elegant

play11:52

it's plain and simple but it's still all

play11:54

of those things so now I've dressed this

play11:55

up I want to wear it for a casual look

play11:59

so I'm going to pair it with jeans and

play12:01

gray slippers so as to not take away

play12:03

from the attention that this blouse is

play12:05

bringing to my deage area my jewelry is

play12:07

simple it is dangling earrings which

play12:09

draw the eye downwards again towards my

play12:12

collarbone which is the area that I want

play12:14

to highlight with this top as well right

play12:17

so that's how focal points in general

play12:19

work for you it could be a brightly

play12:21

colored blouse or it could be a printed

play12:23

dress or it could be really nice chunky

play12:26

earrings or a statement necklace it

play12:28

could even be a statement bag or

play12:31

actually like a red pair of pumps you

play12:33

will have seen that in good Styles in

play12:35

people who look put together when

play12:37

there's one focal point everything else

play12:39

around it is not clashing with it but

play12:43

complimenting it and that is what we

play12:44

want to achieve and that will always

play12:46

always make you look more polished as

play12:49

opposed to having too many different

play12:51

focal elements in your outfit because

play12:52

then that just ends up looking tacky

play12:55

here's another example from my wardrobe

play12:58

here in my outfit the necklace is my

play13:00

focal point and so everything else is a

play13:02

little understated to highlight that and

play13:04

to complement it instead of just adding

play13:07

multiple different elements that clash

play13:09

with each

play13:12

other I feel like materials that look

play13:15

and feel high quality automatically make

play13:17

you look more polished similarly the

play13:19

stitching and the construction of the

play13:20

fabric also has the same effect nowadays

play13:22

honestly every single brand including

play13:25

designer labels use polyester brand

play13:27

Fabrics in their outfits but that is

play13:29

does not mean that polyester has to be

play13:31

low quality right you can still tell if

play13:34

something feels high quality by how it

play13:37

falls on your body how it hugs your

play13:39

curves whether it's see-through or not

play13:41

if there is peeling on the outfit which

play13:43

is that ch ch r that appear right and as

play13:46

for the construction whether the thread

play13:49

is seamless whether the seams are

play13:51

covered from the inside whether they're

play13:53

threads showing or fabric hanging loose

play13:54

Etc are the hems symmetrical all of

play13:57

those things show you whether uh the

play13:59

outfit is constructed well or not so

play14:01

here's a dress from Unico it's polyester

play14:03

but the construction is great the fall

play14:05

of the fabric is great it hugs my body

play14:07

really well which is why it looks

play14:10

premium it looks good but at the same

play14:13

time this is a shirt from unigo it's

play14:15

100% cotton but because it's difficult

play14:18

to make it stay creas free it just looks

play14:22

a lot less polished despite the fact

play14:24

that it's a great Fabric and it's 100%

play14:26

cotton right I personally like to pick

play14:29

clothes that keep their shape and their

play14:31

look despite wearing them for really

play14:35

long now understanding and playing with

play14:38

the proportions in your outfit can

play14:40

significantly enhance your overall look

play14:43

how do you do this one try pairing loose

play14:46

items with fitted items right that's a

play14:48

classic example so if you're wearing a

play14:50

loose top go with a more fitted bottom

play14:53

if you're wearing flowy bottoms go with

play14:55

a fitted top now whether you choose to

play14:57

go with flowy tops or fitted tops or

play15:00

flowy bottoms or fitted bottoms will

play15:01

depend a lot on your body shape will

play15:04

also depend on what you feel comfortable

play15:07

in now since I have a heavier upper body

play15:11

and a Slimmer lower body I like to

play15:13

balance it by wearing slightly more

play15:15

fitted tops and then loser floer bottoms

play15:19

and that just helps me balance out my

play15:21

proportions better I know that the

play15:23

oversized everything is kind of a trend

play15:25

right now but I feel like that looks

play15:27

great on certain body types and not all

play15:30

I personally if I wear something loose

play15:32

from top to bottom it will look like

play15:34

I've worn pajamas and gone outside and

play15:36

that's not a look that I want for myself

play15:38

another thing you can do is play with

play15:40

highlighting the features that you like

play15:42

about yourself like using a belt to

play15:44

cinch your waist or using dangling

play15:46

earrings to draw the attention down

play15:48

towards your collar bone or if you're

play15:50

wearing like a deep we neck dress or a

play15:53

shirt you can use like a longer necklace

play15:55

to draw in attention towards that V

play15:58

another great rule is the third piece

play16:00

rule which is basically adding a third

play16:02

piece like a Blazer or a vest or a scarf

play16:05

to make your outfit look more

play16:07

intentional or polished right so like

play16:09

I'm wearing this shirt and jeans combo

play16:11

now if I add like a tank top inside the

play16:13

shirt and open it up that adds more

play16:15

Dimension the layers look better and

play16:17

because it's the rule of three that just

play16:20

breaks up the monotony and makes the

play16:21

outfit look more

play16:23

[Music]

play16:25

intentional I think your choice of

play16:27

Footwear can really make or break your

play16:29

outfit but I feel like for most people

play16:31

that's an afterthought you just put your

play16:33

outfit together and then you decide what

play16:36

what footwear to wear at the end moment

play16:38

I've personally struggled with this I've

play16:39

personally struggled with getting my

play16:41

Footwear right and I just made this

play16:43

mistake once again if you look at this

play16:45

outfit and you look at the choules they

play16:47

are not going with the outfit right but

play16:50

for the most part I have soled for this

play16:52

by having flats and heels in neutral

play16:55

colors so which is your Browns your Tans

play16:57

your blacks your grays that tend to go

play17:00

with most outfits like I have this pair

play17:02

of black and gray mules that go with

play17:04

everything literally I absolutely love

play17:06

them and they instantly elevate my

play17:08

outfit and when I'm wearing them it just

play17:10

makes me look a lot more Chic a good

play17:12

pair of Footwear can instantly instantly

play17:16

up your

play17:18

look now wearing the right accessories

play17:20

can make you look so much more polished

play17:23

so much more put together and it

play17:25

literally takes 5 minutes I think

play17:26

putting on jewelry is the easiest hack

play17:29

you can have to elevating your outfit I

play17:32

never used to be an accessories person

play17:34

before but I have come to become one in

play17:36

recent times and here are a few ways I

play17:38

do this so I have my staple pieces which

play17:41

is my rings and the chain that I wear in

play17:43

my neck and my watch as well and these

play17:45

essentially become a part of me right so

play17:48

no matter where I'm going this is

play17:49

something I always have on I know that

play17:51

people are not very comfortable wearing

play17:53

jewelry around the house but I think you

play17:55

can get used to it if if that's not

play17:57

bothersome go ahead give it a try it

play18:00

makes things a lot more convenient so

play18:01

even if I'm not wearing anything else

play18:03

because I have my staple jewelry pieces

play18:05

on me it just instantly elevates my

play18:07

outfit right the second thing you want

play18:09

to do is have a few statement pieces so

play18:12

a statement necklace a couple of

play18:13

statement earrings maybe a chunky

play18:15

bracelet all of those things are for

play18:17

creating focal points in your outfit or

play18:20

complimenting other focal points in your

play18:22

outfit and that really makes for a great

play18:25

hack to instantly level up style your

play18:28

outfit and and it's super super easy and

play18:30

the third is layering your jewelry so

play18:32

ring Stacks necklace Stacks even earring

play18:35

Stacks if you have multiple piercings

play18:37

can instantly make your outfit look so

play18:39

much more intentional and like I said

play18:42

this is the easiest thing you can do for

play18:43

your

play18:46

outfit have a go-to nail polish at home

play18:49

it can even just be clear nail polish to

play18:51

basically give yourself a quick manicure

play18:54

whenever you need it chip nails look

play18:56

really bad they just take away your

play18:58

whole look so if your nails get chipped

play19:01

very easily or if your nail polish gets

play19:03

chipped very easily and you don't have

play19:04

time to you know paint it again and

play19:06

again stick with clear nail polish that

play19:08

just is classy is good you'll never go

play19:10

wrong with it but it's very very

play19:12

important to take care of these little

play19:14

things because they signal to other

play19:16

people it's a subconscious signaling

play19:18

that you take care of yourself that you

play19:20

pay attention to detail that you are

play19:22

mindful of the little things and that

play19:24

you're intentional with your outfits I

play19:26

like I've already told you guys before I

play19:28

love doing gel nails so once I do them

play19:30

I'm sorted for the entire month and my

play19:32

go-to color is a nudish pink because

play19:35

that goes with everything looks good on

play19:36

everything but this month I am kind of

play19:39

bringing purple back so this is what my

play19:41

manicure looks like absolutely love it

play19:43

and yeah I always have gel one gel

play19:46

polish on hand so if I have to quickly

play19:49

do a touchup I can do it in 5

play19:53

minutes this should be a look that takes

play19:55

you 5 to 7 minutes to put together and

play19:58

instantly elevates your appearance it of

play20:01

course starts with a good base so for me

play20:04

I use a mixture of BB cream and a little

play20:07

bit of concealer this is not too much

play20:09

it's not too little it's like the

play20:10

perfect amount and it makes my skin look

play20:13

like my skin just better it's not super

play20:16

cakey it's not super heavy and this

play20:18

means that I can wear it on any occasion

play20:21

right so I can wear it when I'm going

play20:22

out casually for a coffee with my

play20:24

friends or if I'm going out for an event

play20:26

I can just add like a little bit of a

play20:27

glittery bronzer and it still works my

play20:30

signature makeup look is winged eyeliner

play20:33

as you can see pink lip and pink blush

play20:36

this works very well for my skin tone it

play20:38

makes me look fresh and vibrant and it

play20:40

goes with almost every single look and

play20:43

if I need to switch things up like I

play20:45

said I'll just change the color of my

play20:47

lip shade or maybe I'll add an ey Shadow

play20:49

or maybe I'll go for like a bold red lip

play20:52

and I'm sorted the base Remains the Same

play20:55

I can literally put together this look

play20:57

in 5 minutes I kid you not which means I

play21:00

can always step out looking like my best

play21:03

self so yeah that was it for this video

play21:06

play21:08

play21:10
