After a long and lovely summer, there is nothing better than starting to care for the skin again. Perhaps you have relaxed a little on your regular skin care routines over the summer and have instead concentrated on the sun, summer and bathing?
The month of August is an excellent month to get a handle on the routines again - remember plenty of water and nourishing oils to moisturize from the inside, and also remember to be good to your body - and not just the skin on your face.
Aromatherapy in the bath
Start with a nice warm bath, but it doesn't have to be WAY too hot, as the heat is also drying. Feel free to use a delicious and organic scrub for the body, which removes all the dead skin cells that make the skin appear gray and sad. If you're into aromatherapy, feel free to buy an organic aromatherapy scent in a health food store - smell what works for you.
Lavender works, for example. super relaxing, while peppermint is invigorating. Scent yourself and pour a few drops into the bath water - whether it's in the tub or at the bottom of the shower.
End your lovely slow-down routine with our super moisturizing and nourishing BODY BUTTER.
BODY BUTTER
It can be used by all skin types and is particularly suitable for dry, tired skin.
Kukui nut oil gives the cream a rich and soft texture that makes it easy to spread. It is non-greasy, but dries quickly and you can also use it to massage tired legs.
Aloe vera adds plenty of moisture and is, as you know, super healing and effective for sun-damaged skin. Ginger helps restore the skin's glow and elasticity, and promotes skin elasticity. Mandarin is a strong antioxidant with a mild and fresh scent.
Use: Massage the product from head to toe with special emphasis on elbows, knees and cuticles on both hands and feet.
Tips: Can also be used as a face mask. Spread an even layer on the face and let it sit for 10-20 min. It absorbs well, but please help it by massaging your face. Wash off with lukewarm water after approx. 5-10 minutes and apply your favorite face cream.
