Winter wellness

During the cooler months the elements can play havoc with the skin, along with any imbalance in your internal system you can become more vulnerable to ills and chills. These mid-year stressors can exacerbate existing skin and body concerns, so to help you take care we've highlighted a couple of our specialist-recommended products and treatments to help you maintain the health and well-being of the skin, and body. So you can keep on glowing this Winter!

Skin health

When it comes to taking care of our skin health, there are many things we can do. First and foremost, it's important to keep our skin hydrated. This means drinking plenty of water and using moisturisers regularly.

Consider an oil cleanser...we love the new-look UNIVERSKIN L'HUILE Oil Cleanser at the end of the day rub some around in the hands, apply all over the face and neck, rinse off with warm water and a moistened cotton ball with a little warm water to melt off any residual eye makeup. It cleanses the skin of impurities while nourishing it, it's so easy to include in your evening skincare ritual.

Protect your skin from the elements during the cooler months. Consider skincare products that protect from environmental stresses, with SPF sunscreen (yes even in Winter!) including cosmetics with SPF. SHOP SUNCARE

Skin health is also directly related to gut health and this is where supplementation can help to maintain balance, for an inside/out glow.

Give your skincare routine a good daily gut-boost with VITA SOL Infinity Anti-Ox Vit-C Powder this wholefood powder is designed to provide essential nutrients and antioxidants that nourish the skin and body from within, promoting a healthier and more radiant complexion. As a skin support powder it is also ideal as a take home aftercare product to compliment in-clinic treatments, as it helps support the recovery of the skin.

By incorporating Vita Sol's skin support powders into your daily routine, you can help support your skin's natural regeneration processes and maintain a more youthful appearance. With their high-quality ingredients and commitment to science-based skincare, Vita Sol's ingestible powders are a must-have for anyone looking to achieve optimal skin health and beauty.

Body balance

In addition to skincare, it's important to maintain our overall body health during the cooler seasons. A way to do this is by staying active, exercise not only helps to keep our bodies healthy and strong, but it also helps to improve our mood and reduce stress. Flower essences can be taken to help with stress reduction and support for the nervous system, and it's super important to make sure you're getting enough sleep each night. Help strengthen your immune system by eating nutrient rich foods. Whole food supplementation can also further support you internally, and help give your body an added boost. SHOP SUPPLEMENTS
