Tips for When You Live With Your Man.

So it's kinda scary when you move in with your man whether he's your boyfriend, husband, or even just a guy friend. (Yes even that can make a girl nervous!) So here are some tips to help out those girls who wake up with bed head, have morning breath, and faces that grease up bad! (Also a few bonus tips on how to wear no make up without being self conscious!)

First is first. Ever go to sleep a little earlier than usual and end up waking up again anytime between midnight and 6am? This is a huge pain in the butt I know, but when you're living with a man in the house it's actually a really helpful thing. What do girls do when they wake up like that? Quick bathroom break, watch a little tv, maybe eat a donut/bagel/whatever. lol. Well here are three tips for when you take that quick bathroom run.

#1.) Wash your face. Grab a soft rag and put it underneith warm water. I myself like to just sit it on my face for a few moments and let it soak into my pours it feels so great. (It's best to use warm water (like shower water) when doing this, that way you aren't wide awake like cold water would cause you to be). After letting it sit you can wash your face the way you normally do. This cuts your grease down in 1/2. Literally in 1/2. Even when you go back to sleep you definitely won't be shining like a star when you wake up next to your hubby.

#2.) Brush your teeth. Morning breath sucks. My biggest fear actually is kissing my baby with this nasty taste in my mouth called morning breath. If you're older and he's working, he goes to kiss you goodbye and thinks blah gross she needs to brush. That's truly the most embarressing moment of my life. Brush your teeth once, maybe even twice! (I do XD) And you're minty fresh when he kisses you good morning or good bye.

#3.) Brush Your Hair. Bed head is crazy. When I wake up in the morning my hair is really big, kiinda like the 70's or 80's. Honestly with this tip, you don't even need to pull out the hair brush and brush out all of those tangles. Just use your hands to put those hairs in the right place. My hair might get big, but it's a really sexy look at the same time. (My boyfriend agrees!) When your hair looks great, you definitely feel great.

(This is a bit of a side note with your hair, guys really dont pay attention to the perfection of your hair, the only thing they really notice is if it's short or long, and if it's frizzy or not. Don't get exhasperated trying to perfect it, chances are, he really wont notice if that hair is out of place.)

No Make Up When We Wake Up:

So there are some girls who wear a the full coverage every day every week every month of every year. And really there's nothing wrong with that. But it can be really hard to maintain that and live with someone you're into. I myself went through this fase where I felt I needed it to look good. I wore it everyday for a good few weeks or months. Then one day I didn't put my make up on yet and my boyfriend saw me. He said, babe, you're so beautiful. And I started blushing and said, thanks. Im not even wearing any make up or anything though. And here is what he said to me.

"You're beautiful, with or without make up. You don't need it to show off your good looks babe."

At first I didn't believe him but I suddenly stopped wearing make up, and I felt just as beautiful as I did without because he and my other friends supported me on that. My point with this is this. We as female women, do not need make up to look sexy or beautiful or pretty. We are just as amazing and gorgeous without it as we are with it. No joke. So, I know how scary it can be to take it off for the first time in front of a man. We can't sleep with our make up on because it causes us to break out but washing it off and then lying next to him is really scary. We think "what if he says something?" "what if im not pretty anymore?" and a lot of other doubtful bad things.

So here's the deal. I want you to be happy with who you are and your looks without that make up on in front of him.

#1.) Ease into it. I myself wear a lot of dark shades when I do wear make up, black and white and red in pretty much every case. The best thing we can do is wear make up without it being seen. Start wearing more lighter colors that fit with your skin tone, that way when it's time for him to sleep over etc you're face isn't as naked as it seems.

#2.) Talk to him about it. Trying to talk to him about it is sometimes the best thing you can do. If you sit down with him and say something like "babe you know I wear a lot of make up often and now that we’re moving in together I’m nervous about your reaction when I wear none.” He might actually surprise you and say something extremely sweet. Something I’ve come to realize is my fears with my relationship are usually so much bigger in my head than in reality. I might be scared about something but as soon as I talk to my boyfriend etc about it, he ends up showing me I was a total fool to be so afraid. One thing my boyfriend has always told me is honesty is the most important thing for a strong relationship. Everything from how I’m feeling that day to what kind of kinky things I wanna try are important for him to know, so if you’re scared about showing your naked face tell him and I promise if he loves you he will be much more supportive and reassuring.

(Again I want to place a little side note. If you have a boyfriend or husband I am really happy for you but this is the most important thing I tell girls everywhere. DO NOT LET HIM PUT YOU DOWN!!!! I know some men who will tell a girl when she's putting on weight, you're fat. I know some men who will tell a girl you're ugly when you dont wear make up. I do know some men who will push his fiance, wife, girlfriend, down really for just his own pleasures. If you have a man like this leave him. I know that's a hard thing to understand and actually quite blunt but in reality if your man is making you feel bad about yourself he isn't the one. Your man, no matter what society says these days, should be faithful and love you, protect you and keep you, and most of all he should be making you smile day to day, not making you feel bad or cry.)

So yeah ^^ These are a few of my own little tips that I hope you start using or use in the future! ^^ Good luck and Good Afternoon or morning! ^^ I love you guys! Love ~Rose
