I want everything she said! But, what else is there that I want and need?
We need to take another look at what is beauty and wellness; and how we can use both to benefit ourselves.
Each month join us as we ask questions and find answers to all that is more than just beauty.
Microdermabrasion: Is it for everyone?
This August’s subscription box focuses on a mixture of beauty and wellness. We need a time out. This is a great opportunity to reflect on ourselves. We need more than ever to take the time to take care of our body, mind, and soul. Everyone is busy going about their day, and in the scheme of it all, we leave little to no time for ourselves. I know this firsthand. I'm trying hard to manage my time. I'm juggling several things at once; I believe I can get everything accomplished within a certain amount of time. I attend church, work full-time, back in school part-time, and working on black femme and other business ventures. However, I realized that I don't have to do it all at once. I find that when I've settled myself, whether through prayer, meditation, or simply sitting still. It gives me a chance to gain some perspective. My advice to anyone struggling with the juggling act is to slow down, adjust your schedule, and take it one day at a time. Your body will thank you. What are some ways that you are taking time out for yourselves? I would love to hear all about it. *Please provide your comments below or send to team@blackfemmebeauty.com
Hey Femmes, How's your facial and body skincare routine going? For me, it can be a little challenging. If you’re anything like me and struggle with dry skin I need to use the right products that moisturize my skin completely. So I have to be very careful to incorporate natural products in my skincare routine. That means nothing with a heavy fragrance and nothing too light otherwise, it absorbs too quickly and can appear as if I haven’t used anything to moisturize with. I think I have used so many different products over the years for my body and face before I was able to find the one that works best for me. My current situation is Clinique’s three-step products for my face, and for my body I use the Castle peppermint body wash. Although I love using these products I tend to change them up from time to time. I know that I stated earlier that I'm particular, but that still stands true. So when I switch it up I'm careful to pick products that still fit my skin type. I recently re-introduced Rose Water into my skincare routine. Both for face and body. Alexa Renee Enterprise’s rose water proved to work well as a toner and as a refresher on my face throughout the day. The combination of rose and lavender hydrates my skin beautifully. Love the smell not too strong, just right. I love how versatile it is. Research shows it’s very beneficial; it diminishes fine wrinkles, provide antioxidant protection, minimize the appearance of large pores, balance natural oils and more. What are some of the ways you use rosewater? What’s your skincare regimen like? If you’re looking to add rosewater to your regimen BlackFemmeBeauty.com has a few vendors you can choose from that offer this product, and you can place your order directly with them. Remember to refresh and hydrate, your body will thank you. God bless! Barbara West
