2. SAM'S WINTER SKIN RULES ✧･ﾟ*✧･ﾟ*
Changing weather is a big factor that influences how our skin looks and feels. Here are my three top tips for achieving skin confidence during the chilly months head brrrr! I hope they help!
1. MOISTURISE!
everyday
We sometimes get asked when we are going to make a moisturiser and well, we laugh because we already have 2 - they just come in disguise! Spray 4 pumps of the water-based Facial Mist on clean skin. Then pump a couple of drops of Facial Oil into your palm and pat it into your skin. The great thing is that you can add more or less of each product depending on how hydrated your skin is feeling.
2. LEAN IN TO EXFOLIATING
every 4 - 5 days
Think of your dead skin as fall leaves! We need to get rid of them so that the new cells can be nurtured and primed with our active botanical ingredients. The Brightening Mask is a one-stop-shop exfoliator, detoxifier, mask and hydrator. Massage it into dry skin in the morning and leave it on for 10 - 15 minutes while you settle into your first activity of the day - perhaps making your coffee! Polish away dead skin with buffered apricot seeds while glasswort and avocado/carrot seed oils will nourish the skin and extracts of rice bran, frankincense and liquorice refine. Chamomile and marshmallow root reduce inflammation and work hard to restore the skin’s natural barrier.
3. BRING THE BALM!
Once a week
For that extra dose of hydration, you can use the Facial Balm as an overnight mask treatment. Make this Balm your nightly ally and let it work its magic while you sleep. Wake up to skin that's not just refreshed but transformed - it's beauty sleep in a jar! 💤🌙. It also works gorgeously applying and leaving it on during a bubble bath. Anddd relax.
With botanical love,

3. WHAT WE LOVED THIS MONTH:
MUNCH
For the most wholesome content (hello baby goats) and comfort food recipes, we follow Julius Roberts who uses seasonal ingredients from his farm to create hearty recipes. He just brought out a new book too!
RETREAT
For those based in British Columbia (or fancy a visit!), we so recommend the gorgeous Nectar yoga retreats on Bowen Island. Stunning scenery, good food, amazing classes, cute cabins for overnight stays and all just a 20 minute ferry ride from Vancouver's North Shore.
GET COSY
We are big fans of the Wick and Bear candles. This female-owned company have six Autumn scents that we can't wait to indulge in.
WITH BOTANICAL LOVE,
SAM
