A list of everything you can add to your selfcare routine and rituals or your lifestyle. We suggest trying one a week to figure out what works for you. 

Green tea instead of coffee. Reducing your caffeine intake is great for your gut and heart health. Plus green tea has great anti-aging properties and can make your skin appear more glowy and hydrated.  

40 mins of movement daily. Yoga and pilates are my personal favourites. There are so many great routines online, or go for a hot girl walk in the sunshine 

Read before bed. Spark your creativity and curiosity with a classic novel or educational nonfiction. Reducing screen time and before bed is also proven to help you get to sleep easier and stay asleep longer.

The first week of the new year can be characterised as a week of reinvention. We mindmap, journal, moodboard and discuss with friends the person we want to be, and all the ways we want to achieve this glorious fantastical version of self. I’ve fallen deeply into this hole. I’ve written a letter to myself reflecting on the coming year like it had already happened in hopes of manifesting a perfect existence. I’ve outlined exactly what i want from my year; what countries I want to visit, what outfits I’ll wear to my job, what grades I need to boost myself from a distinction to high distinction average, what diet to follow for model abs, what the perfect Sunday reset routine looks like, the dinner parties I’ll host with friends. Every minuscule detail has been selected, refined and encapsulated in a photo I can look at daily to remind me of my path. 

Shea Butter. Shea butter is deeply moisturising, an excellent emollient, sealing moisture into the skin without clogging pores. Rich in Vitamin A and E, these vitamins support repair and protect against free radicals, reducing signs of aging. Shea butter is also naturally anti-inflammatory, it helps soothe redness and irritation, making it ideal for sensitive skin. Fatty acids; oleic, stearic, linoleic, found in shea butter help strengthen the skin’s natural barrier. 

Cocoa Butter. Cocoa butter is highly effective  at hydrating and nourishing the skin, leaving it soft and smooth. Rich in antioxidants, it contains polyphenols that help project the skin from oxidative stress and environmental damage. Cocoa butter enhances the skin's elasticity, keeping the skin supple, due to its healing properties that promote skin regeneration.

Coconut Oil. Penetrating deeply into the skin, coconut oil provides long lasting moisture to prevent dryness. Coconut oil has antibacterial and antifungal properties - containing lauric acid that protects the skin and reduces the risk of infections and acne. Packed with antioxidants like vitamin E and vitamin A, coconut oil helps alleviate skin irritation, redness and inflammation having a calming and soothing effect. Coconut oil promotes a healthy, radiant complexion by nourishing and repairing the skin barrier.
