OUR GO-TO GENTLE SKIN CARE ROUTINE

February 5, 2024 Guest User

The month of February often feels like a micro season. A season of doing less, of returning to ourselves, of leaning into simple practices, of deep nourishment.

Our skin craves this as well. It craves simplicity, gentle nourishment. A break from the heavy labor that actives or excessive routines require. Here is a favorite routine cycle to give your skin a break and help it really sing this season.

DAILY ROUTINE

Use one pump of oil or a pea sized amount of honey. Wet fingertips and massage product into skin for 1 minute. After running under warm water,press steamed washcloth over face to gently warm and wet the skin. Using upward motion, gently wipe clean. Rinse and repeat as needed.

STEP 2 HYDRATING MIST
