What is self care?
Self-care differs from person to person but the common goal is to improve your health, well-being, and happiness. It can be anything that brings you peace of mind and makes you feel like your best self. This might look like taking a relaxing bath, treating yourself to a facial and massage, or creating your own at-home spa day.
Self-care helps prioritize your relationship with yourself so that you can effectively juggle your life and responsibilities. Only when you are in tune with your own needs and wants can you fulfill them and give yourself the strength and peace of mind to help others as well. Remember that self-care is not self-indulgence or selfishness, but a healthy practice that can make life just a little brighter.
Your skincare routine can be a mental health/wellness game changer
Your skincare routine has so many benefits for your skin and your overall mood. It can be a really enjoyable experience and something to look forward to. Try these ideas to make your routine even better:
• Make your routine more relaxing by playing some calming music, lighting candles or incense, or creating a special space in your bathroom.
• Don't be afraid to try new things! Experiment with different products and techniques, like using a facial roller, vibrating face tool, or trying a face mask once a week.
• Make your skincare routine a fun social activity by inviting a friend over for a spa day

Our picks to include in your wellness routine
• Hydrating face mask: a face mask can be a great addition to your wellness routine. Our Honey Face Mask is packed with nutrients, antioxidants and hydrators such as hyaluronic acid and Torricelumn™. Simply apply, leave it on for as long as you like - maybe before you take a nice warm bath. Wash off when ready and you’re left with soft, smooth and hydrated skin
• Pampering eye pads: our eye pads are like face masks but for your eyes! We get that some days you need that extra pick me up and the great thing about these is that you can leave them on for as little or as long as you’d like. Pop them on and read a book or watch your favourite movie or as a 5 minute pick me up before you head off to work. They will leave your eyes looking fresh, awake and revitalized - like you’ve slept like a teenager.
• Cleansing Balm facial massage: Not just for removing makeup - our Cleansing Balm is formulated with calming essential oils like lavender and rose, giving you an aromatherapy experience like no other. It melts from a solid balm to a silky oil, making the consistency perfect for a facial massage. Pair with one of our facial massagers for a spa worth face treatment!
