Classically Abby - 5 Mom Beauty Hacks That Will Change Your LIFE! ＊must-see＊

00:00:00.000 Today we're going to talk about five mom beauty hacks that will change your life. If you are new 1.00

00:00:05.600 to my channel here we talk about classic living and traditional values and I would love if you

00:00:09.760 would consider subscribing and hitting that notification bell. I've been talking a lot about

00:00:13.820 homemaking and motherhood for the last little while here on my channel because that is so much

00:00:19.060 a part of my life and this video fits perfectly into that topic. So I want to kind of preface

00:00:23.740 this by saying I am somebody who loves beauty, loves makeup. I just recently talked about in my

00:00:29.440 last video how I've kind of re-fallen in love with doing my makeup maybe because I'm so pregnant

00:00:36.060 I can't do the the fashion thing right now but when you're a mom you don't always get the time 0.95

00:00:43.440 to just sit for 30 minutes and do your hair and makeup like it's rare or if you do it you have

00:00:49.840 somebody watching your kiddo so it's nice to have some hacks in your back pocket to make you feel

00:00:55.820 put together on those days where you really don't have a lot of time and I'm here to share those

00:01:00.060 with you. I also know a lot of my followers actually don't really care about makeup which I

00:01:05.180 find so funny because when I first started my channel I focused more on that and on opera and

00:01:10.820 now I've transitioned to talking more about like I said motherhood and homemaking. So if you aren't

00:01:16.800 interested stick around anyway because this is like almost like lazy girl hacks because before you

00:01:23.920 have kids these are lazy girl hacks once you have kids these are mom hacks and if you are wondering

00:01:29.460 why I'm out of breath it's because I am literally about to give birth. I'm 37 weeks pregnant today

00:01:35.280 I am feeling it and I think this baby is coming soon so we are gonna see but I'm excited to hop in

00:01:45.020 so let's just get started. My first beauty hack is to use stick-on nail polish. I don't know if

00:01:51.720 you've heard about Dashing Diva but I am officially a fan. Initially the first time I did it I must have

00:01:58.340 done something wrong they didn't work very well for me they didn't last but now I've gotten the

00:02:03.380 hang of them and they are the only nail polish I want to use. Now if you're like me getting your

00:02:09.360 nails done is kind of annoying. I like getting pedicures because I can still use my hands to read

00:02:14.380 to write to do whatever I want to do but when I'm getting a manicure I just have to sit there awkwardly

00:02:20.680 and I hate it. That's number one. Number two getting my nails done with normal nail polish

00:02:26.780 is just a no-go because they always get messed up. I'm sorry I don't know when you have time to sit

00:02:32.640 for an hour and not wash your hands touch dirt like be in it with your kids like I don't know who has

00:02:39.740 that time but I don't so I am immediately messing up my nails when I get them done with normal nail

00:02:44.940 polish and the third thing is I used to get gels because it was so convenient they didn't chip right

00:02:51.820 away and they didn't get messed up right away but they were really ruining my nails when I removed

00:02:56.120 them. So I was looking for a different alternative for a while I just went nail polish free and that

00:03:01.100 was fine but then I found these Dashing Diva nails. Dashing Diva has been my thing they are stick-on nail 1.00

00:03:08.400 polish they're not fake nails they're stick-on nail polish and they last so well they're so easy to apply

00:03:14.940 there's no wait time for them getting dry the only thing is you shouldn't get them wet or like oily

00:03:22.860 for the first hour after you do it so if you can like avoid washing your hands or if you can avoid

00:03:28.700 putting on lotion then that's ideal so I do it right before bed and then I go to sleep and then I don't

00:03:34.140 have to worry about having to wash my hands you know right away because I did a project with my son or

00:03:40.220 something but they come in all of these super fun colors that are so many different options they're

00:03:46.220 inexpensive for me they last a week to a week and a half which is about the same time that a normal

00:03:53.740 manicure lasts and I just love them so I have some on right now I think they're super pretty let's see

00:04:00.620 and it's just fun like they're fun to apply they make you look put together you don't have to waste a bunch of

00:04:05.580 time you don't have to waste a bunch of money and they're pretty easy to remove as well my tip the

00:04:11.260 way that I do it is to kind of peel up the edge a little bit and then dip a q-tip and acetone and

00:04:17.980 just kind of push it up push up the nail polish and then just slightly pull up and remove it that's 0.95

00:04:24.060 how it's worked for me I'm a big fan that's beauty hack number one beauty hack number two is all of my hair

00:04:31.260 secrets because hair doing your hair when you're a mom is just it's hard it's time consuming to

00:04:39.340 style your hair and so trying to figure out ways to make your hair look nice when you're a mom is

00:04:45.260 tricky and I've got I've come up with a few different alternatives does that mean my hair always looks

00:04:50.140 nice no but on average I can get my hair to look nice which is the goal so here are my three tips

00:04:57.980 number one is style your hair twice a week if you can get down to styling your hair twice a week

00:05:04.140 and you don't have to style your hair every day that is such a game changer it saves so much time

00:05:09.740 and really that comes hand in hand with only washing your hair a couple of times a week now here's the

00:05:16.220 middle part of this right okay so you style your hair you do it twice a week you're only washing your

00:05:20.700 hair twice a week and then as your hair gets oily throughout the week you learn a few different

00:05:26.540 updo's methods of how to pin your hair back so it doesn't look messy because really what happens

00:05:32.780 when your hair gets oily over the course of the week is that the bottom still looks nice it's just

00:05:36.540 the top starts to look a little gross so what I always do is like day one hair we've got the nice

00:05:42.140 curls day two I'm probably still sticking with the curls I'm good day three we're pinning back day four

00:05:48.220 we're throwing it up in a bun done like easy we got this so learn a few a few small easy hairstyles

00:05:56.220 that you can do for that second third fourth day hair and then only wash your hair a couple of times

00:06:01.740 a week and style it twice a week that's kind of how I've come to doing my hair and having it look

00:06:07.500 nice and only having to style it rarely the other option is if you don't want to style your hair

00:06:13.420 figure out those products that will bring out your natural texture and make it look nice

00:06:18.380 so my natural texture ever since I had kids is wavy on the bottom layers and straight on the top so what

00:06:24.860 I'll do is I'll put in a mousse on the bottom and then I'll pin back the top and that has been

00:06:30.140 a really easy go-to for those weeks that I don't have time to sound my hair at all and it still works

00:06:34.940 so those are my recommendations those are my hacks for hair number three is wear a glowy sunscreen are

00:06:41.820 you not a makeup person that's totally cool I know a lot of people who are not makeup people

00:06:46.700 but here's a thing that you can do that will make your skin look really nice that's also giving you a

00:06:51.420 good level of protection and that just adds a little bit of something to your skin because

00:06:57.420 healthy skin goes so far like if you don't have any makeup on but your skin looks nice then you are

00:07:06.700 you are doing better than most people you look really put together so a glowy sunscreen is always

00:07:11.820 a really good option I love the hero sunscreens they have a couple different ones I have the color

00:07:17.580 correcting green one they also have like a corally one and they're not super expensive they're mineral

00:07:24.140 sunscreens but they don't leave a white cast I like mineral sunscreens because chemical sunscreens

00:07:28.940 I don't really like those ingredients but mineral sunscreens are more ideal and this one doesn't leave

00:07:33.580 a white cast so it's great but you find one that works for you that has a little bit of glow to it

00:07:39.100 and that protects your skin and just makes your skin look healthy number four are you a makeup person

00:07:45.260 maybe you are a makeup mom and you just don't have time to do a full face concealer mascara and chapstick 1.00

00:07:51.820 done that's all you need and you will look 10 times better than if you didn't put on anything at all

00:07:57.020 I have the Charlotte Tilbury magic eraser concealer I love this one because it doesn't actually look

00:08:04.780 like I'm wearing any concealer there are certain concealers you put on I'm sure you know what I mean

00:08:09.100 where it's like oh she has concealer only under her eyes and it looks really funny this is a concealer

00:08:14.700 that's a color corrector so really all it does is it just mattes out the purpleness under your eyes

00:08:20.380 and makes you look a little more awake so using a really easy color corrector concealer like that

00:08:26.460 throwing on some mascara find a mascara that you like and make sure to curl your lashes so that they're

00:08:30.940 like really up and awake and lastly throwing on a chapstick you can get a tinted chapstick or just a

00:08:36.780 normal chapstick just so your lips look a little bit more healthy that's all you need to look slightly more

00:08:43.580 put together and feel slightly more put together and that's your whole face like that's what I do

00:08:48.460 on the days where I have no time at all but I still want to feel slightly more put together

00:08:53.420 my last hack is to use whitening strips if you have a brighter smile you will look more put together and

00:09:01.420 there are so many great options these days for for easy whitening strips I have very sensitive teeth

00:09:07.180 I used the lumino whitening strips I thought they were pretty good they didn't do like a crazy job

00:09:12.540 whitening my teeth but they did a pretty good job and for somebody who gets teeth sensitivity

00:09:16.780 that's all I need I don't need like bright teeth and then terrible pain I'd much rather have like

00:09:22.860 whiter teeth and be comfortable and you can get them on amazon for like 14 15 dollars I think but

00:09:29.340 having a whiter smile using a whitening toothpaste it just is one of those things that adds a little

00:09:36.620 something to your appearance without it having a lot of overhead it's 30 minutes whenever you have a chance

00:09:42.140 during the day throw them on and then you do that for a week and you probably have to repeat the

00:09:47.020 process in a couple of months so I highly recommend just thinking about your smile more generally we'll

00:09:53.500 just add a little bit of something to your look it's a beauty hack that people don't really think

00:09:58.700 about but it actually makes a huge difference and it's not something that takes up a lot of time

00:10:02.940 so those are five mom beauty hacks that you can incorporate into your daily routine into your life 0.57
