How To Brighten Your Lockdown Skin

January 7, 2021 By Be Beautiful Hair & Beauty Leave a Comment

It’s by far not the way that any of us wanted to start the New Year but as we begin 2021 in lockdown#3, I wanted to share some ways that you can brighten your skin during this time.

By doing this, it actually has two benefits; firstly it will allow you to create a little self care for yourself, which is so important, especially at the moment. Secondly, it allows you to really care for your skin, especially as our days are getting colder and we are all wearing masks a lot more.

Drink Water…

I know during the colder months it’s far more tempting to opt for hot drinks, but by drinking 6-8 glasses of water a day, you will help to flush out toxins and improve your lymphatic system.

Cleanse, Tone & Moisturise…

Our skin can really begin to suffer in the colder months. In recent times with us all wearing face masks, this has also taken its toll. By having a healthy skincare regime, you are doing all you can to help take care of it. I love using the Sienna X Skincare Collection and by using these high quality, natural products twice a day is the first step to achieving this.

Shine Bright…

Exfoliate with The Facial Polish at least once a week to remove dead skin cells. This not only helps to remove excess oil and build up of dirt, which helps to fight against breakouts. It also reveals brighter, healthier skin too! Sometimes I’ll combine this with my cleansing lotion to for a deeper cleanse.

Mask it…

Using The Miracle Mask as part of your skincare regime will work wonders, especially in the winter months. This helps to replace lost moisture and helps to prevent skin from drying out that is often caused by the colder temperatures and central heating. Whether you need a quick fix of it working it’s magic for 10 minutes or you to choose to leave it overnight to achieve deeper nourishment, this one is a winter wonder!

Beauty Sleep…

Sleep plays a huge part in not only allowing our minds to rest, but also our skin too! While we sleep, skin produces collagen which helps to plump it up, leading to fewer wrinkles. Blood flow to the face is also increased as we snooze, which helps to give our complexion a healthier appearance.

Until next time, stay safe.

How To Revitalise Your Skin This Summer

August 1, 2020 By Be Beautiful Hair & Beauty Leave a Comment

We all crave beautiful looking skin and with the recent stress and emotion of everything going on in our world, I wanted to share my top tips on how you can revitalise your skin this summer…

Using good quality products and using them consistently in key. Personally I love the Sienna X Skincare Collection. It’s everything I need it to be and more. The products are amazing value, clinically proven and cruelty free and are packed full of natural ingredients.

One of the many things I love about the Sienna X Skincare range is that you can tailor it to your skincare needs. Here are my top 5 products…

The Cleansing Lotion: This is perfect to use as a first cleanse or to use as part of a double cleanse. The creamy lotion contains 97% of natural ingredients and helps to restore moisture and remove make up effectively.

The Toning Solution: Infused with a fresh rose water fragrance, this toner helps to cool, hydrate and rebalance your skin. In the past I’ve used a well known toner that made me skin feel so tight and dehydrated. This is so delicate but does the job! You can spritz over the face and neck, or for a deeper cleanse, apply to a cotton wool pad.

The Facial Polish: This is the exfoliator within the range and I love it, the mineral volcanic pumice helps to remove congested areas as well as brightening and purifying your skin.

The Day Cream: This contains SPF30, an anti pollution formula as well as Marine Bamboo which is known for fighting the damaging effects of blue light and infra read type A.

The Miracle Mask: Another of my absolute favourites within the collection. This definitely has the right name! It contains 10% Manuka Honey and I can honestly say, my skin has never felt so hydrated and nourished! You can use this as a quick 10 minute treatment or leave a fine layer overnight and rinse off in the morning.

Why Your Self Care Matters Now More Than Ever

May 1, 2020 By Be Beautiful Hair & Beauty 2 Comments

Self care is something we often forget to make a priority at the best of times, but now more than ever I really think it matters. With the recent Coronavirus situation changing many of our lives, I wanted to share some tips with you on how you can incorporate a little self care into your life.

Start Something New…

Do you have a hobby? If not, maybe now is the perfect time to start. What do you like doing? What helps relax your mind and just escape for a while? Up to now, I’d never really had a hobby, I’m a bit of a workaholic, so planning work things, even on my days off didn’t really feel like work because I enjoyed it. But I came to realise, I needed something more; so at I’ve taken this opportunity to try my hand at learning modern calligraphy.

Create an Evening Routine…

First of all, I light my favourite scented candle, this for me is always from the Gatcombe Candle Co. range. These candles are by far, the best I’ve ever had. The stunning scents are out of this world and really help me to relax. I loved them so much, I became a stockist!

When it comes to my skincare, I’ve been using products that are infused with essential oils such as The Cleansing Balm and The Facial Oil from Sienna X. Not only do these products feel amazing on my skin, they also help to relax my senses too. My final step for my facial is using The Miracle Mask, I lay on my bed allowing the mask to do its magic, close my eyes and listen to relaxing music while the beautiful scent of Tigerlilly Blossom fills my room.

Calm Your Mind…

If you are like me and struggle to switch off before bed, maybe try an audio book or podcast. There are lots of different categories to choose from, so something for everyone. This just helps to quieten my thoughts and relax, allowing me to get a better nights sleep.

I hope you’ve found this useful, if you have any tips, feel free to share them with me in a comment below. In the meantime, stay safe.

Love,
