5 free natural skincare tips you can start today
A glowing complexion doesn’t have to come with a hefty price tag. With a few simple adjustments to your daily routine, you can achieve healthier skin naturally. These 5 free skincare tips are easy to implement and will make a noticeable difference. Read on to find out how you can start improving your skin today!
1. Hydration: Water with a twist
Hydration is the foundation of healthy skin. Drinking plenty of water keeps your skin hydrated from within. Why not make it more exciting? Add slices of orange, cucumber, or a sprig of rosemary to your water. Not only does it taste refreshing, but it’s also packed with antioxidants that nourish and protect your skin.
Bonus tip: I always start my mornings with a glass of warm water and a pinch of Celtic sea salt under my tongue. This natural salt is rich in essential minerals that promote radiant skin and give you an energetic start to the day. It is not for free, but 1 bag takes forever to empty!
2. DIY steaming session
A steaming session is a fantastic way to cleanse your skin and unwind. Fill a bowl with hot water and add a few dried herbs, such as chamomile or lavender. Keep your face at a safe distance (about 20 cm) above the bowl and drape a towel over your head. Steam for 5 to 10 minutes to open up your pores and loosen impurities.
Extra Tip: Follow up your steaming session with a nourishing moisturizer like the Mystical Forest Face Cream. This will help your skin recover and create a protective barrier.
3. Change your pillowcase regularly
Your pillowcase can accumulate dirt, oils, and bacteria, which may lead to breakouts and irritation. By replacing your pillowcase at least once a week, you’ll keep your skin fresh and clean.
Pro Tip: Opt for a silk pillowcase! Silk reduces friction, helps retain moisture, and is gentler on your hair. A small change with a big impact on both your skin and hair health.
4. Massage your face
A daily facial massage boosts blood circulation, relaxes your muscles, and gives your skin a healthy glow. Pair this with lymphatic drainage by massaging upward towards your lymph nodes. Use your hands or tools like a gua sha stone or facial roller. For an extra cooling effect, store your roller in the fridge to reduce puffiness.
Pro Tip: Use a natural oil, such as jojoba, during the massage for added hydration and smoother skin.
5. Protect your skin from the cold
Winter winds can dry out and irritate your skin. Shield your skin by wrapping a scarf around your face when heading outdoors. Choose a soft and breathable fabric to avoid irritation.
Extra Tip: Apply a hydrating cream before going outside. The Mystical Forest Face Cream locks in moisture and creates a protective barrier against dryness. Don’t forget to apply a little lip balm to sensitive areas like the sides of your nose to prevent chapping.
