ATLANTA - Dec. 21, 2018 - Californer -- As 2019 approaches, we all set out to make goals to become the best version of ourselves in the new year, but end up failing within a few months. Could it be the negative aura we see when we look in the mirror? We are so hard on ourselves and often forget that self-love is the foundation to becoming the very best version of ourselves.

"if you can become confident in your own skin, identify and let go of any negative energy that you've been carrying with you; you will be able to see yourself as someone with infinite potential and recognize that there's nothing stopping you from being fabulous this new year," says Jennifer Hutchens, Brand and Product Development Director with Barely Xtensions.

Here are five ways to adopt a self-love beauty routine:

Get To Know You
Identify the qualities that make you unique and what makes you feel uncomfortable. Journal your experiences to capture your thoughts. Open up your heart, your mind, and spirit so you can feel what it is you need to achieve happiness and as time goes on, build on these discoveries to create a deep and meaningful relationship with yourself. Your physical well-being is the core of a healthy mental, physical and spiritual body. When it's out of whack, your life is out of balance too.

Embrace A Healthy Lifestyle
Beauty comes from within. A poor diet will impact you more than you realize. Learn to nourish your body: Go organic, eat more fruits and vegetables, take vitamin supplements, and avoid sugar and processed foods. Eating healthy and clean increases energy and self-confidence. Be active, endorphins from exercise are the best medicine and actually trigger a positive mood!
