The Ultimate Face Mask

Taking that extra bit of time to let your skin reap all the benefits of a face mask can do wonders for your skin. Because we’re now into the cooler months, a hydrating mask can instantly revive dull skin.

Try: Fresh Rose Face Mask, GLAMGLOW Thirstymud™ Hydrating Treatment or Skyn Iceland Fresh Start Mask.

Relax in a spa-like bath

There’s nothing better than soaking in nice warm bath. To give your skin extra benefits while you’re soaking, add some dead sea salt to your water along with a nice aromatherapy bath oil/gel to send your senses soaring. The Dead Sea salt will not only soften your skin, but will also have a detox effect. Finish off with a luxurious, natural body butter to lock in moisture.

Try: Live Clean Dead Sea Salt and Lovefresh Lavender Body Butter.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Give yourself a great mani and pedi

There’s nothing like getting a professional manicure or pedicure from your favorite esthetician, but it can be costly, especially if you want to change the colour of your polish for different events. For getting rid of dead skin on your feet, one of the best tools to use is the Micropedi. The micro-mineral roller buffs away hard, dead skin, leaving skin soft and smooth.

For a great festive mani, try using a rich colour and topping it with speckles of silver or gold on part, or all of your nails. Not only will that extra sparkly top coat jazz up your polish, but will also act as a protective top coat that will help your polish last a bit longer. By using a gel-like nail formula, you’ll get the ultimate mani that will last days longer than regular polish and will swipe off easy when you’re ready to change things up.

 

Try: L’Oreal Extraordinaire Gel Lacque 123 Kit Gel Primer and Gel Glaze and polish and Colour Riche The Magic Top Coats.
