My self-care secrets...

As women, we all have little self-care tips and tricks and my favourite thing is sharing everything with friends to add to our daily routines. Nothing here is ground-breaking but it is things I personally could not live without and makes such a difference to my day-to-day - hope you enjoy and I'd love to learn about what works for you <3

1. Heatless Curls

   
   

   Heatless curls have been my holy grail for those weekdays, where I like to feel more put together in my day to day. One of my fave feelings has to be waking up in the morning, taking out my heatless curls, applying some lip balm and going to the gym looking put together.

   
   

   Self-care doesn't have to be expensive treatments or top of the range products and sometimes all you need is a little purchase from Amazon to elevate your everyday look - Shop your heatless curls here!

2. Lymphatic drainage

   
   

   This is something I have begun doing the past year or so which has made such a significant difference to my routine. Lymphatic drainage helps with your circulation, but is also amazing for detoxing your body. I have definitely noticed huge benefits, most importantly of all feeling how much smoother and plump my skin has become.

   
   

   I wouldn't say I am an expert in lymphatic drainage at all, but there are so many helpful tiktoks/youtube videos to help get you started as a beginner, so definitely give it a try! Shop your lymphatic drainage essentials.

3. Body oiling

   
   

   I feel like we all hear about skincare, haircare, and nail care but there is barely any emphasis on body care (aside from showertok) and it's insane to see how overlooked this is! Bodycare has been a passion project of mine, from lymphatic drainage, to body oiling which is well-deserved me-time. After I have my daily shower I will lather myself in oil and massage this into the skin until it leaves a smoother, supple skin texture, and this has been a game changer!

   
   

   Body oiling has honestly elevated my shower routine, and body routine in general, you will smell better, feel smoother and overall feel so much better. By massaging the oil into your skin, you are basically improving the circulation of oxygen around your body and trust me, you will notice the difference immediately.

4. Tretinoin

   
   

   I'm not a dermatologist by any means, but I have had my fair share in skin issues, from acne, to scarring and closed comedones. When i first stepped foot into the dermatologist office and was prescribed tret, my life (and skin) forever changed. Whilst I still have texture and large pores (which I am tackling with regular facials and microneedling) I have genuinely not had a huge flare up of acne in years, and I know for a fact that tretinoin has a huge part to play.

   
   

   More importantly, tretinoin is one of the best anti-aging products out there, which really does what it says on the tin. If you have spare change to invest in luxury makeup then I really suggest diverting those funds to a dermatologist and medical-grade skincare, your future self will thank you!
