It's January, and what’s January without the infamous new year's resolutions? Let's simplify it this year, a new year's resolution doesn’t have to be a huge goal, it's important to set small attainable goals for the year. Whether it be to try 10 different types of cheeses/cheese substitutes, or set aside time every day to take care of yourself and your skin (one of the most important organs, that’s right, organs of your body). A hack for your cheese-loving goals is to go to a wine and cheese tasting, you’ll probably knock that one out in one go. Check! As for your skincare, we’re happy to take you through how to get started with a simple and sustainable (both for you long-term and the environment) routine. Especially as we hunker down in the winter months that can really take a toll on your skin.
TLDR:
- Cleanser - Use daily both in the morning and in the evening by applying to wet skin and massaging in circular motions.
- Moisturizer - Apply after cleansing (morning and evening) by applying a small amount to your face and don’t forget the neck!
- Mask - Every 2-3 weeks (on a self-care night), spread the mask evenly in a thin layer and leave for 10 minutes before massaging with warm water, rinsing and patting dry.
- Mist - There are 3 ways to use this multi-tasking product:
- Use throughout the day for a refreshing boost by spraying onto the face and neck with closed eyes.
- Toner: after washing the face apply using a cotton pad over the face and neck.
- Setting Makeup: lightly mist onto face with eyes closed.
