New Year, New Glow: It's Time to Refresh Your Bodycare Routine
You know what they say: New year, new glow! If your beauty and bodycare routine needs a revamp (or just a slight refresh!), here’s your ultimate guide to shaking things up.
Why shake things up?
First thing’s first – our bodies are famous for crying out for help when they need it. So, seeing concerns like dry skin, dullness or redness means it’s time to get cracking on a solution. If you’ve been trying skincare products for a while and haven’t had much luck with results, this is another reason to try a different approach.
Top tips to revitalise your bodycare routine
It all comes down to the three essentials, or the basic building blocks of self-care:
-
Exfoliate: Removing dead skin cells helps to reveal smoother, brighter skin and prevents clogged pores, promoting a healthy complexion. (You can use a gentle scrub for your face and a body scrub for your body.)
-
Hydrate: Nourisers and oils nourish your skin, locking in moisture, improving elasticity and giving it a soft, glowy appearance.
-
Protect: Using SPF on often-overlooked areas shields your skin from harmful UV rays, preventing premature ageing and reducing the risk of skin cancer.
Weekly Bodycare To-Do List
You know those studies everyone’s always quoting? Well, the very smart researchers of the world have not been shy about the positive impact of building a routine on our mental health. With that in mind, here are some ideas to incorporate into your weekly bodycare routine:
Deep Condition Your Hair: Once a week, treat your hair with a deep conditioner or hair mask.
Self-Massage/Foam Rolling: Spend 10-15 minutes massaging sore muscles or using a foam roller (you can even do this daily if it helps).
Nail Care: Trim and file your nails, or do a quick mani-pedi at home.
Body Treatment: Apply a nourishing body mask or oil for extra hydration or relaxation.
Full-Body Relaxation: Treat yourself to a long bath with Epsom salts, essential oils, or a bath bomb.
Clean Beauty Tools: Clean makeup brushes, razors or any tools you use regularly.
Enjoy a Sundae Fundae: Plop yourself in your shower or bath and take the Sundae essentials with you – our Whipped Shower Foams. Sit back, relax and follow it up with our Body Whip Moisturisers.
There you have it – some quick self-care inspo to kickstart the new year with a whole lotta good vibes! (You deserve it.)
