Oxygen Facial

Oxygen Facial – The summer months are amazing – the days are longer, the sun is shining, the weather is warmer, and many people are taking some time off and enjoying some quality time. Summer can be the harshest time of the year when it comes to your skin. If not protected, the skin is exposed to high levels of UV rays, which can damage it and cause premature aging. Also, heat often dries out the skin and causes dehydration.

To enjoy the best things in the world, summer and beautiful skin, all you need to do is pay more attention to the needs of our skin.

Besides being ugly, an uneven skin tone can age you up to 12 years! In a world where we strive to maintain youth, adding 12 years due to uneven skin tone is emotionally upsetting.

Aromatherapy Massage – You have a variety of essential oils and carrier oils, but now you want to know how to mix and apply them. In this blog post, we’ll take a closer look at how you can unleash your inner massage therapist and receive a professional massage from the comfort of your own home.

Aromatherapy massage is a form of Swedish massage therapy that involves long kneading, tapping and moving joints to relieve tension in the upper muscles. However, aromatherapy massage combines the power of aromatherapy with Swedish massage techniques to provide the added therapeutic benefits of essential oils to the body and mind.

Body Scrub

Body Scrub – This aromatic bath scrub only requires 3 ingredients! (oil, sugar and essential oil) – you will also need some kind of container to store it in (or a pretty jar if you are planning to give it as a gift), and that’s it.

Body Scrub

If you prefer something softer, you can opt for regular sugar (cane sugar/white sugar) or brown sugar (which is even softer/softer than cane … Read the rest
