Being locked down in your house right now definitely isn't a bad thing. You're safe, you're supplied with enough food through the day and your skin and hair can make the most of it. Most daily routines involve going to work, attending college lectures, shopping for groceries and meeting your friends. You may not even realise it but through it all, makeup residue can accumulate, sun damage can occur, dehydration can affect it and grime and dirt can get absorbed. Most of that does not happen when you're at home. So how about we look at the current Coronavirus quarantine with positivity? With these beauty tips, you'll be able to use the lockdown to better your hair, skin, nails and body.

1. Fix Your Cuticles
Chances are the cuticles on your fingers and toes have taken a beating from months of neglect and now look dry and cracked. If you do not have cuticle oil, brush with olive or coconut oil to moisturise them.
2. Trim Your Ends
Since you can't visit the salon right away, don't let scraggly split ends work their way upwards and affect your complete length. A mild trim with your scissors held vertically can help lighten the mass of your hair and get rid of split ends too.
3. Steam Your Face
If you have a steamer at home, great. If not, don't fear. With precaution, steam your face with the help of boiling water and a towel. This will open your pores, loosen any grime and bring out residue which has been sitting snug at the surface.

4. Dry Brush Your Body
You don't pay enough attention to your body and that's a fact. Dry brushing your arms and legs doesn't require much preparation and can lend a number of benefits like enhanced circulation, decreased appearance of cellulite and stimulated lymphatic system.
5. Deep Condition Your Hair
Will you ever get this much time at your disposal to deeply condition your hair with ingredients in your fridge? Skip the packed stuff and opt for nourishing ingredients like coconut oil, shea butter, avocados and honey alone or in combinations to condition your hair naturally before a bath.
6. Let Your Lashes And Nails Grow
To those who have been addicted to eyelash extensions, brow treatments and acrylic gel manicures, now's the time to go cold turkey. Allow extensions to run their course and your natural hair and nails to show through. If you quit your addiction now, it will lead to a healthier beauty routine that will save a lot of dough in the long run.
7. Try A DIY Treatment
Being resourceful in your beauty routine in one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself. Now is the perfect time to try a variety of inexpensive DIY treatments which usually require items you have around the house. Manicures, hair removal, face masks and pedicures are a few of them.
