Setting the Getting Ready Mood

Put on your favorite playlist! Close the bedroom door and really get in the mood. Take this time to transport yourself somewhere peaceful. When it comes to getting ready it’s so important to give yourself extra time! Even if you gotta get up early, do it. You’ll have some more time to wake up as you start the routine.

Getting ready is a meditative experience. Reconnecting with your favorite version of self. While getting ready, there’s also a connection with a future version of self. Start paying particular attention to how getting ready makes you feel.

Make it an experience of vanity, and confidence. I want you to feel that the sacred time in which you get ready. At the core there is a shift in mindset and energy. Making yourself feel pretty is a powerful tool, setting the mood is how we get the most out of the sacred experience!

The Right Order to Get Ready

Now, it’s time to decide what kind of girlie you are. In no particular order, there are:

the girlies who get dressed first, hair next, and makeup last

the girlies who do their hair first, dressed next, and makeup last

the girlies who do their makeup first, hair next, and dressed last

the girlies who get dressed first, makeup next, and hair last

and even more variations of these.

The right order is the one in which the process is more effective. Saving time where you can is always going to be a bonus. And, nailing down your process will also give you a time frame that you can consistently work within.

There is going to be a bit and trial and error of course, so minimum 1 hour to get ready while you test which feels best!

No better feeling than getting ready in the amount of time you set, maybe even time to spare.

The Aftermath of Getting Ready

Once ready, the feeling doesn’t have to fade! Ride the wave of an occasion well prepared into the day itself. Getting ready doesn’t just have to be an occurrence. In itself, getting ready is a mindset. I’d even say that the occasion is right now. In fact, I love saying that LIFE is the occasion. It’s better to be caught ready then unready.

The confidence after taking time to get ready for the day/occasion/event should be scientifically studied. Because I promise you, this is the one process of your day that the more you put in the more comes out.

The day has a higher chance of being great when the right foot is forward! Rinse and repeat as often as needed.

YSL Beauty Lash Clash Mascara First Impressions — sincerelyyoli

When I first got my hands on this mascara, I was in some ways smitten from the start. There’s always a rush of joy unboxing a designer makeup item. The Lash Clash mascara didn’t stop impressing me there, though.

The Need to Know and Control You know why there’s that feeling of not liking surprises? The nervous system is telling you that if there’s no control, there is danger. There’s no actual danger, of course. Not in matters of controlling someone else’s moods, reactions or life circumstances.
