Bring out your shine and start the year in top shape!

Now that the holidays are over and hopefully you'll have more time to devote to yourself, I wrote up a few tips on scheduling the various beauty care tasks so you could start the year on top form.

Make sure you wash your face every evening! Find the Manna facial cleansing soap which best suits your skin type and wash your face with lukewarm water and then quickly apply a few drops of beauty oil or a pea-sized drop of shea butter or even a dash of whipped body butter.

If you don't feel like your skin is dirty and oily in the morning, you don't necessarily have to wash your face with soap in the morning. You can even skip this all together if your skin has a tendency to dry out and get dehydrated and merely wipe your face with a piece of cotton wool dabbed in a few drops of rose or chamomile flower water. Then apply some beauty oil, shea butter or whipped body butter on your face, taking care around your eyes and on other sensitive spots.

Every few days, you can massage your skin with some COCO Salt soap since this gentle, salt and coconut oil rubbing feels like going on vacation in the summer: it gives you a pure, fresh sensation and even gently scrubs your skin, relieving you from tired, colourless-looking dead and rugged epidermis, thus helping you absorb more of the various skin-friendly active agents.

You should pamper your face, neck and neckline skin at least once a week with a mask: choose a Manna skin regeneration mask which best suits your skin, add a few drops of water and apply it on your previously cleansed skin. If you're looking for a truly luxurious experience or if you have dry and sensitive skin, add a few drops of your favourite  Manna beauty oil to the mask!

During the summer I already wrote about what you can do if your hair has a tendency to get oily and how you can try protecting it by washing your hair a little less frequently. If you have dry, lustreless hair prone to fraying, you can easily prepare a hair pack with Manna beauty oils and the Organic virgin coconut oil. These are mainly to be applied on dry hair and then left on for at least a half hour, after which you can wash your hair, for example, with our Healthy Locks soap. If only the tips of your hair need intensive care, you can apply a few drops of Manna beauty oil after washing your hair.

The innovations of the last few months can turn beauty care into a truly sensual experience thanks to the Manna shower gels and scrubs. You can take the shower gels wherever you go whilst the salt and sugar granules of the scrubs will gently massage your skin while nurturing oils lend a refreshing and velvety, fragrant touch.
