Natural Skincare Methods


Caring for your Skin 



It is very important to take pride in your skin. It is vital to consider what we apply topically, as it is absorbed by the skin and enters the bloodstream. 

Most creams are created to have a long shelf life. This means they are often full of harmful preservatives, parabens and other toxins that can do long term damage.
Here are a few examples of how you can look after your skin effectively: 

Drink more water
Staying hydrated keeps your skin healthy, moisturised and radiant. 

Get to know your skin type
Getting to know your skin type will help you understand what products and ingredients it needs.

Cleansing 
Cleansing your skin when you wake up and before bed is important as it helps to remove any impurities and bacteria from the surface of your skin. 

Use natural products
Natural products are skin friendly and have beneficial properties, that are healthier and much safer to use. 

Routine
   Start to develop a morning and evening skin care regime as this is a great way to address your skin concerns and maintain healthy looking skin. 

Research
In order to avoid using toxic chemicals, do your research and try to purchase products from companies that care about what they are providing. In addition, look at the ingredients so that you can consciously become more aware of what you are putting onto your skin.

Comforting Ambience

Comforting Ambience Creating an ambience at work and at home can be a simple way to uplift you and invite peace and comfort into your personal space. Having a serene work space is important for your productivity and mental well-being.   Flowers can be a simple and effective addition to creating a calm work environment. They can add colour and aroma to your surroundings and provide an often needed element of nature. If purchasing real flowers seem too costly, you have the option of buying beautiful synthetic replicates that look and feel like fresh flowers. Personally, my favourite tip is to make sure that your work environment is kept clean and tidy. Taking pride in sustaining a presentable work space helps with maintaining mental clarity and is a visual reflection of your professional standards. Creating an ambience at home promotes relaxation, peace, and balance, which in turn gives you a space yourself and others can enjoy...
