Beauty and Beyond

The best kind of beauty is when one cares for our environments. Here are some tips to help get you beautiful without harming Mother Earth.

Don't put beauty products in extra packaging.

Carry your purchased products inside your bag, without slipping it in  a paper or plastic shopping bag. That's less packaging that will end up in our already overflowing trash dumps

Reuse beauty containers.

Beautiful glass bottles of perfume make wonderful decorative pieces, and even the pretty boxes that once contained powder compacts or bath sets can be used to store knickknacks.

Save every drop of water

Don't leave the water running when you're washing your face or scrubbing your body. Use a glass when brushing your teeth. You'll be surprised at how many you can save with this simple habit!

Shorten your blow-drying time.

Use an extra absorbent towel to wrap your hair in, or choose to air-dry your locks for as long as possible. Not only will you save your hair from damaged caused by the blow-dryer, you save electricity as well

Find a beaut y products that keeps on giving.

Consider purchasing from stores with adopted causes that save the environment, or brand that work with communities that provide raw materials in a sustainable manner.

Less is more.

Just like the ingredient list of overly processed food, be wary of beauty products whose ingredients are unknown to you. Most likely, these products are based on chemical ingredients.

Recycle all that you can.

Don't throw away empty bottles of shampoo, lotion, and the like. Collect and sell them at a junk shop; see how much you can earn from discarding your trash properly.

Buy big and small.

Buy the biggest size of your favorite products say your perfume or lotion and refill small containers. That way, you save money and packaging from buying the small sizes all the time.

Dreading pounds with Smart & UHD TV a new Gym Partner

Smart & UHD TV a New Century Gym Partner

 

Dreading all those pounds you'll be putting on this Christmas? The string of parties to be attended and the lack of time to work out due to the stress of holiday shopping are a lethal combination that can wreak havoc on your waistline. Add the expensive cost of gym memberships and fitness instructors and you might be ready to throw in the towel when it comes to keeping fit. However, with a little self-discipline, a few small weights, and a Samsung Smart and UHD TV, staying healthy might not be as impossible as you imagine.

 

How does a TV figure in to all of this, you ask? With various apps on Samsung Smart and UHD TV like MyYoga, Curves, and Absercizer you'll be able to work out from the convenience of your own home, on your time, and minus the cost of expensive gym memberships.
 

However, though working out at home may be more convenient than going to a gym, in many ways it requires a deeper level of motivation. In this absence of typical morale – boosters like workout partners and encouragement from instructors, it can be tough to maintain enthusiasm for a home fitness routine. Keep reading to see how to keep focused on your fitness goals while working out at home.

　

 

Mix It Up

Keep things fresh by changing up your workout. You'll see better results by varying your exercise routine. For instance, reserve some days for strength, some for cardio, even some for gentle stretching or yoga. You can use different apps for this and keep yourself from getting bored. Also, take a helping hand from your electronics. Pop a workout disc into your DVD or Blu-ray player, stream an exercise routine on your laptop, or explore your smart TV's fitness offerings. Samsung Fitness is a motion – controlled app that features a built-in library of exercise routines and interactive tracking features to help you set and achieve your fitness goals.

　

Prevent Injury

there's nothing more demotivating than injuring your self while trying to improve your health. Take the time to stretch, warm up, and cool down properly, and be sure to put on supportive shoes even though you're not planning to leave the house.

Without the feedback provided by trainer or a gym's mirror wall, it's easy to slip into poor form and sustain an otherwise preventable injury. Samsung fitness features a virtual mirror where you can view a live video feed of our own movement in split-screen with the video instructor, to ensure that you're using proper form and doing the exercise in the safest and most effective way.

　

Set a Goal

Having a defined goal to work toward is a great motivator. Whether it's a target weight, a clothing size, or a key health marker like blood pressure or cholesterol level, set – and track – your goal.

Samsung fitness can help you monitor your progress by collecting your fitness data and crunching the numbers to illustrate your progress toward goals. There's even a compatible Wi-Fi body scale (sold separately) to help keep you up-to-date – and honest!

　

Schedule It

Don't let fitness be the one item on your to-do list that never seems to get done, especially with all the upcoming parties you'll have to attend. Schedule a regular time for exercise, and then do it! But also remember that every little bit counts. If something comes up and you don't have a full hour to do your planned workout, even 20 minutes is better than nothing.

　

Reward Yourself

Although better health is a reward in and of itself, promising yourself a prize can be a great additional motivator.

It's always a challenged staying fit during this season but tools like a Samsung TV with its built-in Fitness app can help put you on the right track.
