Valentines Day Prep

Glow your way to Feb 14
Valentines Day Prep

The biggest date night of the year is just around the corner and that means pre Valentines Day prep is in order.

Whether you've got Galantines dinner with your besties or a romanic date planned with your boyfriend, you'll want to have maximum glow on V Day. Show yourself some love in the lead up to Feb 14, we've put together your next five day beauty prep plan that'll have you radiant and glowing. 

5 Days Until Valentines: Face Mask

The big date is only 5 sleeps away, so that means it’s time to get started on your beauty prep. Glowing, luminous skin is a must. Treat yourself to a mini facial to deep clean the skin. Start by double cleansing your face with a gel cleanser. Then go in with a hydrating face mask. Whether you're a sheet mask kinda babe or prefer clay, either will help replenish the skin and lock in that glow we’re after. 

4 Days Until Valentines: Teeth Whitening

Pearly whites are a must. With so many DIY teeth whitening kits on the market, you’ll be spoilt for choice. At least 4 days out, be sure to get those teeth looking whiter than snow. BB HQ hack: when date night rolls around, to make your teeth look more crisp and white, wear an apple red hue lipstick. This not only makes those teeth pop but will also make your lips look extra plump and kissable. 

3 Days Until Valentines: Hair Mask

Luscious, volumised hair for the main event? Yes please. Show your hair some love and pack it with hydration. Apply a hair mask onto damp hair and brush the product through then sweep it back into a slow slicked bun using a claw clip. We recommend leaving a hair mask in for a minimum of 10 minutes so your strands can soak up all the nourishing goodness. For the next 3 days be sure to steer clear of heated hair tools. This will bring down the luminosity and shine!

2 Days Until Valentines: Lip Treatments

If you’re expecting a cheeky kiss on Valentines Day, be sure to do a lip mask. Locking hydration into the lips will ensure a  plumper, more perfect looking pout. Start by exfoliating your lips with a scrub. Once your lips are free from dead skin, apply a super nourishing balm. We love sleeping in a lip mask and waking up with softer than ever lips.  

1 Day Until Valentines: Fake Tan

What is Valentine’s Day without the perfect tan? To complement any makeup look or any outfit be sure to fake tan the night before your date. You are a fake tan expert, so you know the drill. Shave, exfoliate and shower. Reach for your Ultra Dark or Original Dark Self Tanning Mousse and apply with our Luxe Tanning Mitt. Marinate in your tan until you reach our desired colour, then shower. 

Day 0 

Did you miss yesterday’s step to fake tan because your bestie wanted to have a rosè? Don’t worry, we’ve got you. Our 1 Hour Express is perfect for the last minute fake tanner. Apply our ultra lightweight, fast drying Express Self Tan to your entire body. Leave for at least 60 minutes for the tan to develop. Shower in lukewarm water and pat the skin dry. Oh look babe, you’re glowing and ready to meet your date.

How to combat dry and dehydrated skin

How to combat dry and dehydrated skin

We’ve all been there. Neglecting our skin is unfortunately a sin most of us commit on a regular basis. And let’s face it, there really is no nicer feeling than slipping into clean sheets with silky smooth skin to compliment. It’s the simple things in life that really go the extra mile. So we’re here to teach you the easiest and fastest way to give your skin a little TLC, in under 2 minutes. Step 1: Exfoliate, exfoliate, exfoliate The most simple, yet the most neglected part of any skin care regimen. Long gone are the days of harsh scrubbing applicators and routines, feeling like our skin is going red raw with the pressure.  If you’re using a 100% natural DHA self-tanner, then the self-tan only sits on the first layer of your skin, your epidermis. Synthetic or chemical DHA-based tans actually seep into the lower levels of your skin, making it much more difficult to remove.  In essence, we always recommend that you opt for a 100% natural DHA self-tanner. Not only to add ease to the post tanning removal process, but to also support a healthy relationship with your skin and it’s overall health. To exfoliate, we recommend using a light to medium pressurised, natural body scrub that also harbours benefits for the skin. Our Essentials Body Scrub is an all-natural formulation that gently but effectively exfoliates the skin while replenishing moisture. Pink french clay and nourishing plant based oils work together to promote skin elasticity and renewal. Infused with a blend of grape seed oil and rosa damascena flower oil, this combination is designed to provide antibacterial properties, minimising the occurrence of body acne and other skin concerns. Step 2: Stay hydrated We know that sometimes getting your 2L of H2O every day can be more of a laborious chore, rather than a self care act. Keeping your skin hydrated should be no less of a priority than the latter.  There are generally 3 ways you can go about this: 1 - Mid-wash hydration This is usually when you use an in-shower or oil-based product whilst you wash. Our in-shower body oil is a great product for this method of combating skin hydration. Enriched with soothing ingredients such as chamomile and coconut oil, the formulation of our Shower Oil has been designed to soften the skin's surface and help control skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis. Our in-shower body oil also includes nourishing plant-based oils such as grapeseed oil, which aims to provide intense hydration to the skin.  To use, apply generously to wet or damp skin in the shower. Following this, massage all over your body and focus on any dry areas or where the skin is cracked and neglected (elbows, knee caps etc). Lastly, rinse off in the shower and you’re good to go!  A product like that is perfect for daily use and complimentary for all skin types and skin aversions, including sensitised skin. 2 - Post-wash hydration The second and probably most obvious skin hydration tip is to moisturise daily. We recommend using a 3-in-1 product, like our Gradual Tan Moisturiser. Using 100% natural DHA and other natural ingredients and oils, our Gradual Tan can be used as a daily moisturiser, a tan extender or a gradual tan. 3 - General product mindfulness As explored above, the importance of choosing to use products that contain natural ingredients and oils is extremely important - especially when you are applying it topically all over your body's largest organ. Always be sure to educate yourself regarding what is actually in a product and favour ingredient-focused formulations. Also, try to get in the habit of electing to seek out products that are sustainable in their packaging and their ethos. Our new Essentials range has been designed using 100% recyclable materials and is safe for all skin types and pregnancy.
