Lock Down Home Beauty Treatments
We are all in a dilemma at the moment, with this current crisis. My salon is one of many businesses
which had to shut. I do feel really sad and anxious with what is happening around the globe. I feel one minute I was travelling around the world, working with clients and models and the next moment I am at home locked away from the world..
However I do feel blessed, I love what I do. I have to remind myself why I do what I do. I like to see people happy. Making them feel and look good.
So currently I can not pamper you, but I thought I would share some tips with you. Pampering yourself with beauty treatments, is the same feeling as going to the Gym or going shopping or even eating that bar of chocolate…….. Just the thought, feels really good doesn’t it.
Im really much aware of the financial difficulties most people are suffering with at this time. Job losses, jobs on hold. How long will it be before the next pay check will come through let alone when you can book your next set of nails facials or even a hair cut.
So hear I go, lets look into our kitchen cupboards and see what we can dig out. I was thinking facials.
Our skin is a living organ and takes on so much of life stresses. With stress anxiety and not putting on the correct lotions and potions our skin will be affected. It will start looking tired dull dry OLD or oily and patchy.
We need to eat and drink water to feed our bodies, the same applys to our skin.
