Autumn Edit - Fall in love with plant-based skincare

Autumn is here and it is asking us to pull our energies inwards and focus our attention on gentle, nourishing self-care.

"Autumn shows us how beautiful it is to let things go"

Just as the leaves are shedding their leaves, it's time for us buff away the last memories of Summer. This is the perfect time to spend some time polishing the skin with a body scrub or loofah, Massage the skin in a gentle, clockwise motion to remove excess cellular build up. Pay attention to your feet, ankles and lower legs as well as your arms and abdomen. Not only will your skin glow afterwards but those Autumn blues and stress tension will melt away.

• Soak in a warm bath before your start your scrubbing to soften the skin. Once you have applied the body scrub leave it on the skin and soak some more... think of it as the ultimate home spa treatment.

It's time to upgrade your skincare routine... think hydrate and protect.

As the weather gets wetter, colder and windier there is never a better time to give our hard-working hands some much needed TLC. Our limited edition Samhain Hand Cream is enriched with shea butter and hemp seed oil as well as infused with a bespoke blend of frankincense, orange and patchouli essential oils. Frankincense is known to be soothing and calming as well as a wonderfully nourishing for mature skin types.

Looking to maintain a natural dewy glow? Lock in the skins natural moisture with a couple of drops of our 100% natural, Rejuvenating Facial Oil. Formulated with six natural oils including argan, rosehip and jojoba plus a beautiful blend of sandalwood, frankincense, patchouli and lavender essential oils.

"This is my second bottle. It smells divine and is perfect for my dry menopausal skin in the morning for a makeup free day and religiously each evening before bed. I love it!"

Autumn often triggers the need within us all to embrace richer, comforting foods. The same can be said for our skincare needs. Choose richer skincare products which will hydrate and nourish the skin.

 

And finally, with the nights getting longer and colder, it's time to cosy up with an Autumn inspired, small batch candle. Fill your home with the comforting aroma of our 100% natural Pumpkin Spice Candle. Many of the shop bought Pumpkin Spice candles are made with a synthetic fragrance oil... such fragrances have been linked to a number of health issues.
