Taking care of your skin should not be difficult, and it really isn’t. Even though there are a lot of ways, here are five easy tips to help you keep your skin clear and healthy.

1.     Manage stress and sleep well

Sleeping well is the first on the list because it is one of the easiest things you can do. However, it is easier said than done — due to the amount of work that you may have to do daily. Lack of sufficient sleep could cause a substantial reduction of the skin barrier function, and your skin could age significantly. Stress could also elicit a breakout of acne, eczema, and other skin problems. To help with managing the stress of work and sleeping well, you must set time limits within which work will be done to give you time to sleep and do other things you enjoy.

2.     Eat healthy food

If you are serious about having healthy skin, you need to be serious about the food you eat too. To look great and also feel great, you need to eat healthy food and watch the time you eat. That means eating plenty of vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and fruits. Drink lots of water to keep your skin hydrated and do not eat late at night. Intake of healthy fat like those found in salmon, whole eggs, olive oil, nuts, and avocados can prevent dryness of the skin and hair. Also you can add supplements such as the luxstopp organic vitamin c serum to your diet, to help maintain your skin health. Reduce your consumption of alcohol to lower the risk of developing non-melanoma skin cancers. Quitting smoking will help reduce the probability of having some skin cancers as smoking restricts the supply of oxygen to the skin.

3.     Moisturize your skin

This is one of the best ways to prevent dry skin as it keeps your skin hydrated and seals in moisture. The best time to apply your skincare products is right after taking your bath with warm water and avoid using sponges that can damage your skin. Use a towel to pat your skin dry, then use your moisturizer to keep the moisture in and ensure that you put on clothes that do not irritate your skin. Keep your hands off your face afterward and don’t scratch your skin as it can only cause problems and probably lead to infections.

4.     Clean your makeup tools

After a long period of use, makeup tools inevitably have dead skin cells, oil, and bacteria on them. This makes it important that they are cleaned regularly to keep these tools from preventing you from getting the healthy skin you want.

5.     Exfoliation

This refers to the removal of dead skin cells from your skin, and this can be achieved using exfoliation products such as the organic luxstopp face and body scrub, chemical or a granular substance. The accumulation of dead cells can result in clogged pores and dry patches of skin. Light exfoliation can keep your skin glowing and increase the production of collagen.

Do ensure to visit your dermatologist for treatment if any skin condition persists even after doing your best to maintain your skin.

Happy Wednesday Lovelies, can you believe it is exactly 9 days before Christmas! Although this year's celebration will be a lot different with restrictions and social distancing, We shouldn't forget how we have made it through not only this year but years pass. 

Thinking out of the box like having virtual parties, through video calls using apps like zoom, WhatsApp and or FaceTime to name a few will definitely be huge and most advisable for the safety of everyone.

Today's post is great for in person or virtual celebration. One of my go to outfits for special occasions is metallics and I absolutely love this type fabric. It is more subtle compared to sequins and suitable for people not into that much shine and I will totally recommend trying out metallics.

I shared this outfit on my blog, so be sure to check it out here! Guess what you can also get a similar look as mine here on Luxstopp.com, and I have pulled two looks below just for you wink! You will see some pieces from last week's post read here if you haven't already. 

For the first outfit I chose an outfit that can be worn at home celebrating with family and friends, very similar midi skirt as mine which also has slits. I paired it with this dreamy sweater with flower sleeves, because I just love it don't ask me why lol. For accessories, I pulled this bangle which is slightly different from this one, and paired the same earrings from last week. To finish off I chose a pop of colour again similar to my post, but this time its a beautiful mix of pink and orange colour block pumps.

For the Second Outfit, I chose another skirt with slit but this time I decided to go for a maxi skirt instead of midi. I was going for a more sexy look just in case you decide to go to a social distancing party. Paired this lovely sheer long sleeve bodysuit style which is similar to this one here and I added a blazer for warmth and chic vibe. To finish up this outfit, I paired the same earrings, bangle  and this platform sandals.

So which of the looks are you gravitating towards, or which look would you love to rock for the holidays? Please let me know in the comments section below!

Hey you, its another Blog post Wednesday, as you know Christmas is a little shy of 2 weeks from now. I know the holidays might be a little different in celebration this year however, I'll say let's make the best of it by being happy regardless of the current covid situations and restrictions. 

Let's ensure to follow the safety guidelines and regulations of our nation(s) by social distancing and enjoying the holidays responsibly. Now that we have gotten the safety part over with, lets get into today's super exciting post about gifts either for yourself or for your loved ones here on Luxstopp.

Yes!! You read that right you can shop for the holidays and beyond here on this website. Now you do not have to worry about doing that, I have taken timeout to curate some amazing looks and each piece is currently on the sale category page. I picked the most budget friendly pieces and pulled each look I'm sharing with you because who doesn't love sale items right lol I know I do for sure.

 I pulled 4 different looks using literally the same accessories, keep in mind all this looks can also be mixed and match to create more outfits :

1. First Outfit : this lovely cape dress, by the way comes in other colours, paired with gold cage sandals, then added big vintage earrings, just so you know I'm a big sucker for statement earrings and you can check out my blog post here about it. I finished up the look by adding this beautiful set of bangles which are a personal favourites of mine as I have owned and worn them for over a year and it hasn't tarnished till date.
2. Second Outfit : Is actually a fringe 3 tiered maxi skirt, again I love me some fringe check out my recent blog post here styling a fringe black dress also for the holidays. I paired this alluring sweater with flower sleeves, (I'm seriously thinking of getting one for myself), and added the same earrings and my favourite bangles once again and finished up with the gold cage sandals.

3. Third Outfit : Is a black leggings with sequins on the side seam which totally makes it appropriate for the holidays. Pairing this sheer mesh lace long sleeve bodysuit is such a sexy look for the night, topping it with this gold belt, the statement earrings, the bangles and the gold sandals 

4. Alternatively, you can just switch up the sheer mesh lace long sleeve bodysuit with this  bold asymmetrical lace Shirt that will draw compliments because of its high low effect. With this last look you just have to keep the shoes and accessories the same.

Well hello there!! My name is Adeleye Awoliyi, I'm a wife, mum to four adorable children, an entrepreneur and the writer and editor behind passion heavenly which is a style, beauty, faith and lifestyle blog check here to learn more about me. I will be guest writing on this platform from here on and I hope you enjoy reading as I will be publishing a new post every Wednesdays so stay tuned.

So let's start with today's post which is about one of the major trends of this year 2020 which I have been loving is joggers!!!
I know right I actually surprised myself on this one too, I mean who would have thought a piece that is mostly worn as loungewear, to run errands or just relax and chill at home would be taking the fashion world by the ears literally lol I mean I totally blame covid on this one but here we are It’s now the chic loungewear.

Seriously tho, like some trends I didn't think I'll even like but I ended up loving, joggers is definitely one of my “never say never items” to be honest. Just like in this post I styled it with cardigans which I clearly love, but I'll say having it in this colour and in leather really took today's outfits up a notch in my opinion and also gave it a more dressy, edgy vibe to it.

Speaking of the vibe it gave, I decided to share three different ways out of many ways to style this pair of leather joggers.

The first look can be rocked for brunch during the day that's why I paired the turtleneck and blazer for warmth, and a bigger bag and a hat to complete the look.

The second look is giving a night time vibe and can be worn for a date night hence the faux fur vest, a mesh/ tulle top and a clutch bag.

The 3rd look is more causal and laid back which can be worn running errands with the kiddos and with a crossbody bag for a comfy vibe.

I'll love to hear from you, have you tried any or this year or season's trends? So which of the looks are you gravitating towards, or which look would you love to rock for the holidays? Please let me know in the comments section below!

This year Makeup is all about experimenting with bold colors and testing wet looks. Those neutral tones and no-makeup makeup looks are put aside by vibrant shades on the eyes and glossy lips. 

Both makeup products and techniques of application have gone through a period of growth, now you don’t have to play safe or remain in your boundaries because these makeup trends are out to play and test your limits.

Glass skin

This one will surely dominate all other trends this year. Take out your most hydrating primers and strobe creams to get the glass skin effect. Also, incorporate the use of hyaluronic acid in your skincare routine for an extra hydration boost.

Get the look

Primer and strobe cream are a must for this finish. Use sheer foundation and apply where needed and same goes for the setting powder. Finally use the finely mild highlighter to achieve the dreamy finish.

Floating eyeliners

You don’t have to trace your lash line anymore because liners will be freely floating this season in neon and other daring colors. This chic trend is an official hit this season.

Get the look

Start with concealed eyes and use pencil eyeliners and then let your creative side take over. 

Eye embellishment

Yes! You have read it right. Stars and crystals on the eyes is another daring move makeup artists have made. it’s a fun way to elevate both your mood and your style. Give this look a go and shine like a diamond you are.

Get the look

This one is quick to create. Just keep your eye makeup simple and pop stars or crystals around your eye.

Shimmery smokey eyes

When in doubt smoke it out. Well to be honest smokey eyes are timeless but this season you don’t need to worry about blending, blending and some more blending to get the look. 

Get the look

Put some metallic finish brown or black, blend with a light hand and rock with a neutral lip and extra bronzer.

Glossy/wet look A bit of gloss here and a bit of gloss there. Glossy eyes and lips is the new chic trend from catwalks to fashion magazines and we are not talking about your regular glow but dreamy wet looking eyes, lips, cheeks and brows.

Get the look.

The real star of this look is an eye gloss and a lip gloss. Choose the product that gives a glassy-wet finish and apply on eyes, lips and highest points on your face. Remember that your goal is glossy and not greasy.

Accent inner- corners

We all have seen shimmer in the inner corner to brighten up the eye look but this year pop in the tear duct on minimal eyeshadow is the talk of the town. 

Get the look

Make sure that you start with the dewy skin, add a color of your choice (preferably bold like bright pink or neon) in the inner corners and let it be the highlighting moment of your eye look.
