225 HABITS TO TRACK + FREE PRINTABLE HABIT TRACKER

Looking to add positive habits to your daily routine and make meaningful changes in your life? You’re in the right place! Today, we’re sharing a list of 225 habits you can track, plus offering a free printable habit tracker to help you kickstart your journey.

WHY USE A HABIT TRACKER?

Tracking your habits offers powerful benefits that can keep you motivated, help you see your progress, and inspire you to build new routines.

BOOSTS MOTIVATION

Keeping a daily or weekly record of your habits can give you the motivation to stay on track. The “don’t break the chain” method popularized by Seinfeld is a great example of this—watching your progress build up day by day can drive you to keep going.

It also makes it easier to track tasks that you may not love but still need to do.

VISUALIZES YOUR JOURNEY

Tracking habits lets you see your growth over time, from where you started to where you are now. If you don’t hit 10,000 steps every day at first, that’s okay! Start with a goal that feels doable, like 6,000 steps, or aim to reach 10,000 steps just a few days a week. The focus is on consistency, not perfection.

HELPS YOU BUILD A ROUTINE

Filling in your habit tracker each day is a great way to establish a new routine. It serves as a daily reminder to stick with the habits you’re trying to adopt and gives you a visual cue to stay on track.

BREAKS DOWN BIG GOALS

Achieving big goals can feel daunting, but a habit tracker helps you break them down into manageable steps. By focusing on one habit at a time, you’re steadily moving toward your larger goal, one small action at a time.

Once you download the free habit tracker, you can start by choosing one or a few of these habit ideas to focus on. Before long, you’ll be on your way to building better habits across different areas of your life. This daily habit tracker provides space to monitor your weekly habits, and soon enough, your new routines will become second nature.

TIPS FOR USING A HABIT TRACKER

Set the Right Goal with the SMART Method: Make sure your goal aligns with what you truly want to achieve. If you’re not invested in it, your habit tracker will end up with more empty spaces than you’d like.

Be Honest: Tracking your habits only works if you’re truthful with yourself. Remember, this tracker is for you and no one else.

Have Fun & Get Creative: Use colorful pens, markers, or try different habit trackers to keep things exciting and engaging.

If You Miss a Day, Don’t Worry: Missing a day is no big deal! Just pick up where you left off the next day.

Don’t Track Habits You Already Do: For example, there’s no need to track brushing your teeth (unless you’re teaching this habit to a child). Focus on habits you’re actively working on.

Try Habit Stacking: Add a new habit onto an existing one. For instance, if you already drink a cup of coffee every morning, try using that time to meditate for 5 minutes.

Start Small: Begin with simple habits and build from there. Once you’re comfortable with your routine, you can tackle more complex habits.

Create Time for Reflection: Take a moment to reflect on what you accomplished. What would you change for the following week or month based on what you’ve learned?

Be Kind to Yourself: Habit trackers aren’t about measuring your worth. If you don’t hit all your goals, avoid negative self-talk. Instead, look at what worked, what didn’t, and apply those insights to improve in the future.

HOW MANY HABITS SHOULD YOU TRACK?

I believe it’s not about the quantity of habits, but rather selecting the right ones to track.

Personally, I recommend keeping it to a manageable number—ideally no more than 5 at a time. Tracking too many can become overwhelming and may make it harder to stick to any new habits. But ultimately, you know yourself best, so choose what works for you.

If you’re just starting out with habit tracking, I suggest beginning with one important habit you’d like to introduce into your routine.

CONCLUSION

Incorporating positive habits into your daily routine is a powerful tool for personal growth and development. By tracking your progress and celebrating your achievements, you can build momentum and create lasting change. With the 225 habit ideas and free printable habit tracker provided, you have the resources to embark on a journey of self-improvement. Remember, small steps lead to big results.

15 BEST FACE OILS FOR DRY SKIN FOR MOISTURE BOOST

Dry skin can feel rough, flaky, and uncomfortable. It can also be more prone to wrinkles and signs of aging. If you’re looking for a way to boost your skin’s hydration and give it a healthy glow, face oil is a great option. Face oils are concentrated sources of nutrients that can help to replenish your skin’s moisture barrier and lock in hydration. They come in a variety of formulas to target different skin concerns, so you can find one that’s perfect for your needs. Here’s a look at 15 of the best face oils for dry skin.

IS USING FACE OIL BENEFICIAL FOR DRY SKIN?

Yes, using face oil is absolutely beneficial for dry skin! Here’s why:

Deep Hydration: Face oils can penetrate deeper into the skin compared to many creams and lotions, providing long-lasting moisture [Source: Benefits of Face Oil for Every Skin Type]. This is crucial for dry skin, which often lacks the natural oils it needs to stay plump and supple.

Strengthens Skin Barrier: Certain face oils are packed with ingredients that mimic and reinforce your skin’s natural barrier. This helps lock in moisture and prevent further dryness.

Nourishment: Many face oils are rich in essential fatty acids and vitamins that nourish and soothe dry skin. This can help reduce redness, irritation, and flakiness [Source: The Powerful Benefits of Face Oil for Every Skin Type].

WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN FACIAL OILS FOR DRY SKIN?

Dry skin craves moisture and nourishment, and face oils can be a fantastic way to deliver both. But with so many options available, how do you pick the right one? Here’s a breakdown of key features to consider when selecting a face oil for dry skin:

Fatty Acid Powerhouse: Look for oils rich in omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, like rosehip or argan oil. These fatty acids help repair and strengthen your skin’s natural barrier, keeping it plump and hydrated.

Non-Clogging Champions: Dryness doesn’t have to mean clogged pores! Opt for non-comedogenic oils, which won’t block your pores. Sweet almond, grapeseed, and neem oil are all excellent choices.

Vitamin Boost:  Give your skin a healthy dose of vitamins A, C, and E with face oils. Moringa oil, for example, is packed with vitamin E, offering antioxidant protection and promoting overall skin health.

Hydration Heroes: Some oils excel at locking in moisture, a lifesaver for dry skin. Jojoba oil, with its close resemblance to the skin’s natural sebum, helps retain moisture effectively.

Soothe and Calm: Dryness can sometimes lead to irritation. Look for oils with anti-inflammatory properties, like moringa oil, to calm and soothe your skin.

Absorption Matters: Consider the absorption rate when choosing your oil. Slower-absorbing oils, like avocado or olive oil, create a protective layer, ideal for dry skin. However, a mix can be beneficial. Sweet almond oil absorbs quickly, providing a good base for slower-absorbing oils.

Texture Preference: Choose an oil that suits your taste! Sweet almond oil offers a lightweight feel, while coconut oil provides a richer experience.

Natural Goodness: Whenever possible, select 100% pure, organic oils. This ensures they’re free from unnecessary fillers, fragrances, preservatives, and pesticides.

15 BEST FACE OILS FOR DRY SKIN

CHARLOTTE TILBURY COLLAGEN SUPERFUSION FACE OIL

The Charlotte Tilbury Collagen Superfusion Facial Oil is a product specifically designed to address concerns of dry skin, potentially ranking among the best face oils for dry skin. While the full list of ingredients isn’t publicly available, the brand highlights a “collagen matrix” and “potent plant extracts” as key components. This suggests it might combine ingredients that plump and firm the skin while delivering nourishing botanical extracts to combat dryness. It’s worth noting that Charlotte Tilbury claims this oil is suitable for all skin types, including oily skin. If you have oily skin, you might prefer to use it only at night as the final step in your routine to lock in moisture without adding excess shine.

YOUTH TO THE PEOPLE SUPERBERRY HYDRATE AND GLOW FACE DREAM OIL

Packed with a blend of superfood extracts, Youth To The People’s Superberry Hydrate + Glow Dream Oil is a luxurious choice for dry skin. This oil boasts intense hydration thanks to prickly pear and squalane, which work together to lock in moisture. The star of the show is the “Custom Superberry Blend” featuring maqui, acai, and goji berry extracts. These antioxidant-rich berries are believed to  combat free radicals, potentially reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while leaving your skin feeling velvety soft and glowing.  This oil is suitable for most skin types, including dry, normal, combination, and even oily skin, thanks to its lightweight, fast-absorbing formula.

SHEAMOISTURE OVERNIGHT FACE OIL FOR ALL SKIN TYPES 100% VIRGIN COCONUT OIL FOR DAILY HYDRATION 1 OZ

SheaMoisture’s Overnight Face Oil with 100% Virgin Coconut Oil offers a simple yet potentially effective solution for dry skin. While it contains just one key ingredient – coconut oil – this oil boasts some benefits for dry skin. Coconut oil provides hydration and is rich in fatty acids, which can help strengthen the skin’s barrier and prevent moisture loss. However, it’s important to note that coconut oil can be comedogenic (pore-clogging) for some people, especially those with oily or acne-prone skin. If you have dry skin and are curious about coconut oil’s benefits, SheaMoisture’s Overnight Face Oil might be worth a try, especially considering its affordable price point. 

GHOST DEMOCRACY SOFTGLOW FACIAL OIL

Ghost Democracy’s Softglow Facial Oil is formulated specifically to deliver a healthy, radiant glow to dry skin. This plant-based oil utilizes lightweight, yet softening ingredients to deeply hydrate without feeling greasy.  A key ingredient might be cloudberry oil, which is mentioned on some retailer sites but not confirmed by Ghost Democracy themselves. Cloudberry oil is rich in antioxidants like vitamins A, C, and E, and omega fatty acids. These nutrients are beneficial for dry skin as they help strengthen the skin’s barrier, retain moisture, and promote a healthy glow. Since Ghost Democracy prioritizes clean ingredients, this oil is free of common irritants like sulfates, silicones, and essential oils, making it a good option for sensitive skin. 

DRUNK ELEPHANT VIRGIN MARULA LUXURY FACIAL OIL

Target plump, hydrated skin with Drunk Elephant’s Virgin Marula Luxury Facial Oil. This oil is formulated specifically to address dryness and lack of elasticity. The star ingredient is 100% unrefined marula oil, known for its richness in fatty acids and antioxidants. These fatty acids help replenish the skin’s moisture barrier, while antioxidants fight free radicals that can contribute to wrinkles and loss of firmness. Marula oil also absorbs quickly, leaving a lightweight, non-greasy finish. This makes it a good choice for those who don’t love the heavy feel of some facial oils.  Drunk Elephant prioritizes clean, biocompatible ingredients, so this oil is free of harsh chemicals and potentially irritating ingredients like fragrance and essential oils. While Drunk Elephant markets this oil for all skin types, it’s particularly suited for dry and mature skin.

MELE SKINCARE NO SHADE SUNSCREEN OIL SPF 30 BROAD SPECTRUM

Mele Skincare No Shade Sunscreen Oil SPF 30 Broad Spectrum  is a multi-tasking product that offers both sun protection and hydration for dry skin. This oil-based sunscreen provides broad spectrum SPF 30 protection against UVA and UVB rays, helping to shield your skin from sun damage and premature aging. While it is an oil, it’s formulated to be non-comedogenic, so it shouldn’t clog pores. It also contains ingredients like marula oil and sea buckthorn oil, which are both rich in antioxidants and fatty acids that can help nourish and hydrate dry skin. 

OMOROVICZA MIRACLE FACIAL OIL

The Omorovicza Miracle Facial Oil is a luxurious option designed to target multiple concerns of dry skin, promoting a revitalized and youthful appearance. While the complete ingredient list isn’t available, the brand emphasizes Hungarian thermal water as a key component. This mineral-rich water is believed to nourish and hydrate the skin. Omorovicza also highlights a unique blend of vitamins and fruit acids. Vitamins like A, C, and E offer antioxidant protection to combat free radicals and potentially slow signs of aging. Fruit acids may gently exfoliate, encouraging cell turnover and a brighter complexion. This oil is suitable for all skin types, including dry skin. However, due to the potential exfoliating effects of fruit acids, it might be best to start with a patch test, especially if you have sensitive skin.

HERBIVORE PHOENIX ROSEHIP ANTI-AGING FACE OIL

Looking to revive dry, mature skin? Herbivore’s Phoenix Rosehip Anti-Aging Face Oil might be your hero. Made with rosehip oil (packed with vitamin C and good fats), this oil helps brighten and plump your skin. It also helps keep moisture locked in, which can reduce wrinkles and fine lines.  On top of the rosehip oil, Herbivore adds other goodies like sea buckthorn oil (great for extra moisture) and chia seed oil (rich in another good fat). This all adds up to super hydrated, smoother, and glowing skin that feels younger. Plus, it’s gentle enough for sensitive skin since it’s free of fragrances and other harsh ingredients.

JUNO ANTIOXIDANT + SUPERFOOD FACE OIL

Sunday Riley’s Juno Antioxidant + Superfood Face Oil is another strong contender for dry skin. This oil is packed with a blend of cold-pressed seed oils derived from superfoods, making it a feast for your skin!  These antioxidant-rich oils, like blackberry seed oil and blueberry seed oil, help fight free radicals and environmental damage, which can contribute to dryness and wrinkles. Juno  oil also boasts a good balance of omega-3, 6, and 9 fatty acids, thanks to ingredients like cranberry seed oil. These fatty acids help replenish your skin’s natural moisture barrier, keeping it plump and hydrated. Overall, this oil is designed to deliver a radiant glow and restore a healthy look to dry skin.

PEACH & LILY PURE BEAM LUXE OIL

Packed with all-natural, plant-powered goodness, Peach & Lily’s Pure Beam Luxe Oil is a great choice for dry skin. This lightweight oil absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy feel. Key ingredients like squalane, jojoba oil, and sea buckthorn oil work together to deliver a powerful punch of hydration. Squalane mimics your skin’s natural sebum, helping it lock in moisture and prevent dryness. Jojoba oil, another star player, offers similar benefits while also fighting off bacteria. Sea buckthorn oil adds a boost of vitamins and antioxidants, further nourishing and protecting your dry skin. Overall, this oil is designed to replenish your skin’s moisture barrier, leaving it feeling supple, soft, and radiant.

DERMA E VITAMIN C GLOW FACE OIL

Derma E’s Vitamin C Glow Face Oil is great for dry skin that needs a hydrating boost and a radiant glow. It’s like a superhero for your skin because it does two important things at once. Firstly, it has Vitamin C, which helps make your skin brighter and more even. Plus, it has special ingredients that focus on tackling dryness. Imagine seabuckthorn oil and red raspberry oil teaming up to give your skin a big drink of moisture! And even though it’s an oil, it feels light on your skin and soaks in quickly. That means you won’t feel all oily and gross after putting it on. It’s gentle too, so most skin types, even sensitive ones, can use it without any problems.

BIO-OIL SKINCARE OIL

Bio-Oil Skincare Oil is like a Swiss Army knife for your skin, even though it’s not made specifically for dry skin, it can still help a lot. It’s famous for helping scars and stretch marks look better, but it’s also good for hydrating dry skin. How does it work? Well, it’s packed with different oils like sesame seed oil and lavender oil that help keep moisture in your skin. Plus, it’s got vitamins A and E, which are like superfoods for dry skin, helping it stay healthy and strong. But, be careful, because for some people with oily or acne-prone skin, it might clog pores. If you have dry skin, give it a try, but maybe test it out on a small area first to make sure it doesn’t cause any problems.

You can use it all over – on your face, your hands, your hair ends, and even to take off your makeup! Just remember, since it’s not made only for dry skin, you might need to use a moisturizer too if your skin is super dry.

HOW SHOULD YOU INCORPORATE FACE OIL IN MY SKINCARE REGIME?

Here’s how to incorporate face oil into your skincare routine for dry skin:

Step 1: Cleanse your face

Begin your routine by washing your face with a gentle cleanser suitable for dry skin. This removes dirt, oil, and makeup, allowing the oil to penetrate better.

Step 2: Apply toner (optional)

Toner can help balance your skin’s pH after cleansing. However, it’s not essential for everyone, especially those with dry skin. If you do use toner, choose an alcohol-free, hydrating formula.

Step 3: Serums and Treatments (optional)

Apply any lightweight serums or treatments you use before your face oil. Since oils can create a barrier, it’s best to layer thinner products first for better absorption.

Step 4: Apply face oil

Here’s where the magic happens! Take 2-3 drops of your chosen face oil and warm it up by gently rubbing it between your fingertips.

Pat or gently press the oil onto your face, focusing on dry areas. Start from the center and move outwards towards your hairline and neck.

Avoid the delicate eye area unless your oil is specifically formulated for that region.

Step 5: Moisturizer (optional)

This step depends on your oil’s consistency and your skin’s needs.

If your face oil is lightweight and absorbs quickly, you might still need a moisturizer for additional hydration, especially for very dry skin.

If your oil is quite rich and leaves your skin feeling well-hydrated, you can skip the moisturizer at night.

Here are some additional tips:

  • Use face oil at night for maximum absorption while you sleep. You can also use it in the morning, but allow it to fully absorb before applying makeup.
  • Apply a light touch. A few drops are usually enough, and more isn’t necessarily better.
  • Patch test on a small area of your skin before applying it all over your face, especially if you have sensitive skin.
  • Be consistent! Regularly using face oil can significantly improve the hydration and overall health of your dry skin.

By following these steps and considering your skin’s specific needs, you can incorporate face oil effectively into your routine for a healthy, glowing complexion.

CONCLUSION

Look for products with good qualities like fatty acids and vitamins. Some are light and good all the time, while others are richer and better when it’s cold. Using a facial oil can make your skin feel really nice and soft, no matter the season. Besides, combine toner for dry skin and moisturizer. Wishing you soon have soft, smooth, shiny skin.
