9. Brush and Floss
Of course, besides our skin and hair, we want to take care of our pearly whites. What good does a beautiful complexion do if our smile is yellow and full of plaque? Floss first, then, using a soft bristled brush, brush your teeth for two minutes. Rinse with a mouthwash or your own homemade mouth rinse. You should wait at least 30 minutes after eating to brush so the acid level in your mouth has time to diminish.
10. Pin Up Your Hair
Unless you are using a hair mask, you should put your hair up to avoid knots, tangles, and split ends. Leaving your hair down is also a common way to get pimples from the oil and dirt on your hair. Pin it up in a bun or braid it. You might feel strange the first few nights but you will quickly get used to it.
11. Don’t Forget Your Feet
Ok, so we have taken care of our face, hair, hands, and teeth, let’s not forget the tootsies. Give your feet a wash and pat them dry, then apply some of the same heavy cream you used on your hands on your feet. Massage it in well, then put on a nice big glob for good measure. You might be shocked at how much lotion your feet will soak in! Put on some cotton socks and you’re done! In the morning, you won’t believe how soft your feet are.

12. They Don’t Call it Beauty Sleep for Nothing!
The duration and nature of your sleep will have a huge impact on how you look during the daylight hours. Sleep allows the body to rejuvenate itself and repair cell damage. Consistent lack of sleep will cause dark circles, wrinkles, poor skin tone, and fine lines. There are plenty of other reasons to get your rest, but in this case, there really is a reason they call it “beauty sleep,” because it truly is. Work on getting 7 to 9 hours of sleep each and every night.
