Make time for yourself

Stay-at-home moms need sometime for themselves, too. While you are dedicated to serving the family members need, you are highly susceptible to burnout. No matter how busy you are, you can always squeeze in a good hour or two to pamper yourself.

Pampering doesn’t always mean breaking your piggy bank to look good. There are a number of ways to pamper yourself while at home. You can devise your own hot oil concoction by using coconut oil (the extract of toasted coconut meat) to keep your hair shiny and healthy. Oatmeal, on the other hand, can be use as facial and body scrub.

See, you don’t have to spend a lot to groom yourself. While you’re at it, check your cabinet for an old wardrobe which you can transform into something else. If you are creative enough, you might just turn an old chiffon dress into beach attire. You can mix and match your old clothes. They may not be as trendy as the clothes from those that you can find at Zalora Philippines, but it’s okay, what is important is that they (old clothes) are clean and presentable.
