LET'S REJUVENATE IN WINTER

Mid-winter is upon us and IT.IS.COLD.Even in paradise.It's a great time of year to sit by fires and drink red wine (or whatever).It would be easy to neglect skin and body at times like these,after all,who could think of cleansing and massaging rosehip oil into skin when your half way through a bottle of red (or whatever),the fire or the heater is on and the kids are in bed.However,when it comes to rejuvenation,small steps matter,little things we do for our ourselves pays big diviends for skin,health,mind and spirit.

HAVE A BATH
Pour a carton of organic full cream cow's milk into it then 3 drops each of lavender and geranium essential oils.
ADD CANDLES
As your're soaking,gently cleanse your face twice(double cleansing each night is good because it removes makeup,pollution,and cleans the pores properly-you'll notice a big difference in your skin if you double cleanse.)then let the steam do the rest as you lie there.
MEDITATE OR READ
This is ultimately rejuvenating us on every level
SHAVE LEGS
AFTER BATH....have olive oil on hand to pat into warm skin,then moisturise on top of that for a double whammy of hydration.
This is all it takes, and half to one hour at most.In that time you have exfoliated your skin(thanks to the lactic acid in the milk),deep cleansed your pores, thanks to the heat and steam,and made yourself feel good by reading or meditating.(Nurturing your soul).
This is rejuvenation.Everyone's happy-you,your skin,your body,your wellbeing,your soul,me,-(im happy for you).
NOW SPREAD THE LOVE!
Love,f
