Wear your 5 A Day
Skincare has never been so in demand. Maybe its because more of us have that little bit of extra time on our hands and that’s face it, we don’t really have anywhere to go that warrants putting on a full face of make up everyday.
It really is the perfect time to start investing some time into your skincare and taking some time for YOU!
I for sure can say its definitely made me feel more confident going make up free knowing that my skin is glowing. (Albeit under some PPE whilst on my supermarket sweep)
We’ve been super lucky with the weather with Vitamin D being a great vitamin to make you look and feel perky. But then again, we all know eating our 5 portions of fruit and veg not only contribute to a healthy lifestyle but promotes good skin as well. So why just eat it when you can wear it too.
Let me show you the front runners that are leading the way using fruit ingredients to help deliver that extra surge of the daily dose of nutrients to help you come out of quarretine looking like you”ve just stepped out of 2019!
Who knew we could reverse time time in lockdown??
