Every woman has had that moment where someone comes up to them at work and says something along the lines of "are you okay? You look tired!" Now, as frustrating, and let's be honest kind of rude, as this can be, there might be a grain of truth to it. Sure, a lot of the time this is because many people don't seem to be able to remember what a woman without makeup looks like. However, sometimes it might be because the way that you're feeling inside just isn't showing on the outside! With that in mind, here are some things that you can do to make sure that the way that you feel inside and the way that you look on the outside match up.
Take better care of your skin and hair
Your skin and your hair are almost certainly going to be the things that make you look more tired than anything else. You need to make sure that you've got a decent skincare routine and that you're using the right products for your skin and hair type. If you're not sure about which hair products are right for you, you can read more about it here. If you're using the wrong products than you could end up looking either too greasy or too dry and both of those are likely to leave you looking less than your best!
Improve your diet
If you're feeling run down to the point where it's showing on your face, then your diet could be to blame. If you're eating too much fatty or salty foods and you're not hydrated enough then that's almost certainly going to have an impact on not just how tired you look but how tired you feel. Fresh foods and lots of water are the very best thing for giving you the get up and go that you need to both look and feel great!
Get more sleep
Here's the harsh truth. Most people simply aren't getting the amount of sleep that they really need. The modern world is so busy that many people end up trying to sacrifice certain things in order to fit it all in and one of the first things to go is often sleep. Make sure that you're getting an early night as often as you can. Never assume that sleeping in late is going to make up for a late night. If you're waking up in the middle of the day, then you're going to be completely exhausted no matter how much sleep you're getting every night. Getting an early night and waking up at a decent time is the best way to give your skin that natural glow that only comes with a good night's rest.
Of course, no matter what you do, there are almost always going to be those people who end up saying things like "you look tired" because they have no idea what women actually look like because of spending all of their time looking at photoshopped and edited imagines of women in the media. When you come across those people, then the only thing to do is just ignore them entirely!
