Beauty Sleep

It's a little known fact that we all need our beauty sleep! Having a good nights sleep not only effects our mood and the way we may act, but is also has an impact in the way we look.

While you are sleeping your skin and body goes into repair mode, this is when new skin cells grow and replace the older ones, it's all about restoring, repairing and rebalancing! Lack of sleep will disrupt these processes, as well as leaving an effect on your skin such as dark circles around your eyes and a dull complexion.

Ideally, around seven to nine hours sleep a night is needed... of course this varies depending on your age. Getting the right amount will leave you feeling more alert and ready for the day, your skin will also appear healthier and more refreshed!

Goodbye stress!

We all hate feeling stressed, as it can make you feel run down and even result in you becoming ill - banish that stress away with our top tips!

1) Candles.

Yes, lighting candles can help relax you. 

So if you come home one evening and feel stressed - instead of switching on the lights why not burn some candles! Try scented ones to help calm you down more.

2) Facial Spray.

Being stressed can sometimes cause you to feel all hot and bothered. Take away the heat with a simple facial spay, why not try our Collagen Spritz, it will help to cool you down whilst taking care of your skin! 

3)  Try Yoga.

Doing gentle exercise can actually take your mind away from things, de-stress you and it's a way to keep fit. How great! 

Why not take a class in yoga, a great way to calm down and also meet new people. If you don't have time then simply do a short yoga session in the comfort of your own home. 

4) Sleep.

Over-thinking and stress can cause problems with sleep! 

Burning lavender and chamomile scents can actually help reduce stress and help you sleep better, resulting in a better nights rest. But all those restless nights can cause dark circles and puffiness around the eye area. Using a product with viatmin C or/and E can help tackle these problems - something to remember when buying your next skincare products!
