While this prevents you from doing the usual routine of going out to have a pamper day for your hair and skin, you can always turn this waiting phase into a self-care period. To help you get started, here are indoor beauty activities you can do while helping flatten the coronavirus curve: 1. Sort out your beauty and care productsThe most important thing you should not forget to do while on home quarantine is to sort your makeup and personal care products. Throw out the already expired products you’re keeping and separate those you do not use. This little activity will also help you to note things you don’t use often and things you don’t need. Eventually, it can help you save money because then, you’ll know what products you actually use. 2. Test out some DIY'sThis is your chance to try out those DIYs you bookmarked on social media. To start, check out all the ingredients you have in your pantry and see what you can do. With a few ingredients, you can try creating your facial mask, body scrub, soft or hard wax, and moisturizer. Just make sure to test a little first on your skin to make sure you’re not allergic to what you create.3. Switch out to natural deo If you’re curious about trying to switch to natural deodorant, now is the best time to do it. Staying at home will remove the fear of the transition smell and sweat you need to undergo before the product kicks in. After the lockdown or quarantine period, you’re probably done with the detox phase and you’d be more comfortable with using your new natural deo. 4. Wash hair less frequentlySince you’re not going out as often as you did before, try to experiment with a new hair-washing routine. If you’re used to washing your hair every day, which the experts say isn’t healthy for the hair, this is the time to see what schedule is best for you. Try washing every other day and observe how oily your hair can get. If you’re happy with the new routine, you’d save up more on your shampoo and conditioner usage. 5. Have a makeup detoxThis is the best gift you can give your skin. Since most of the time you’ll be staying inside, there’s no need for you to put on heavy makeup. Try to go on a bare face look, and pamper your skin through focusing on skincare. Check out all the skin care products you have and see which products you often forget to use. Then, try to be consistent with your newly discovered routine and see how you glow after. Besides saving up on makeup, this is also the best time to discover the skincare products that work for your skin and the products you should avoid. 6. Have a hair detoxSimilar to the makeup detox, this is the time to let your hair breathe. If you are a fan of changing hair colors once in a while, take this time as an opportunity to give your hair a break. It might be tempting to experiment with new looks, cuts, and colors, but try to stop yourself. You can always do all those once everything gets better outside. For now, focus on letting your hair recover. 7. Get enough sleepHaving all the time for yourself may tempt you to do as much as you can not to waste time, but don’t forget to have enough rest. The best defense you have against coronavirus is having a healthy body and mind. Try to train yourself slowly to sleep early and wake up early. Your body and skin will thank you for this.Conclusion Being stuck inside your home should never be a barrier to get the skin and hair care you deserve.
