Are you irritated? 😣

The amount of people that come out of the woodwork in Winter with sensitive skin is incredible. Sore, red and itchy skin for so many.

Not surprising at all though because Winter can be a bish for skin, but it’s crucial to get on top of skin sensitivity before it really hits the long term skids.

Heres how I do it when mine needs some resetting.
Keep it simple and leave OUT the actives - and PUT IN the nourishment. ✅ (Check out the pics below to see what I dealt with in 2020 😳)

💫Clean your skin with something simple. No foaming cleansers with emulsifiers to dry your skin out, just a simple calming non fragrance cleanser please.

💫Hydrate all year round. Like errryy day. You know what a raisin looks like? That’s your face as you age unless you give it some special hydration love each day. Be a grape, not a raisin. (And I’ve got a serum for that….see previous post 🙊)

💫Give it some Ceramide ❤️. This ingredient will give your skin some real nourishment, relief and will rescue your damaged skin barrier. When your skin barrier is compromised it is open to the environment and thats where the baddies get in and suck the life out of it. Think heating, wind etc.

💫Then, as always, protect the work you’ve put in with a suitable moisturiser. Lightweight, mineral based with SPF. Keep it light and simple if your skin is struggling.

How’s your skin fairing this Winter? Do you need calming right now too?

Its been a hot minute! (Or should I say COLD....far out...Winter is not my friend!) 🥶
It's this time of year where I am reminded of how much the weather can wreak havoc with our skin....that combined with hormonal changes as we age is actually the worst. Trust me when I say I understand this entirely. Have a look below at my skin in 2019 when my hormones dipped dramatically (this is a whole other convo I can go about for ages) and smack bang in the middle of winter. Horrendous 😭

Who can relate?
If you find you have dryness, irritation and redness in your skin for any reason, here is a tip to help get some relief asap:

❗️Start by using a gentle skin routine that LEAVES OUT the actives and allergens (like sulphates, soaps and fragrances) and PUTS IN the soothing ingredients like ceramides, aloe vera and Glycerin to name a few). Our Soothe range with our own RF Tech does this perfectly and it has made my skin happy time and time again when it needs some extra ❤️.

I know there are many people out there who are too scared to try new products on sensitive skin. Many tell me that they react to everything. But I can also tell you I have many happy customers who have finally had some relief with Soothe and have seen their skin improve dramatically - even to the point of moving onto actives addressing their secondary concerns of ageing or other.

If you, or someone you know, would like a sample of Soothe, please shout out. Or a conversation with me to see if it will suit is always welcome too ☺️ Here if you need! xx

Hey ladies! Tonight, I wanna talk about something that’s really close to my heart: the power of being helpful and supportive in both life and business.

Whether it’s recommending a killer serum or sharing tips on handling the ups and downs of middle age, I’m your wingwoman ✌🏻

Lately, I’ve been having many conversations where offering support and reassurance that ‘you’re not alone’ has been a common theme - around health, parenting, relationships and as well as running side businesses.

So, if you’re feeling sh*te in mind or body, keep exploring solutions. If your kids issues, big or small, are doing your head in, talk it out. If your relationships aren’t where they need to be, invest more time in them. If you’re working hard to make your passion project a reality, keep going. Whether you need to bounce off ideas, a pep talk on tough days, or just someone to celebrate your wins with, count me in.

Because honestly, life’s too short to do it alone. So, let’s keep it authentic, keep it real, and let’s support each other – both in life and in business.

Peace out ✌🏻🤗

Another day, another battle with procrastination! 🙈

Who else can relate to having a to-do list as long as their arm, but somehow ending up starting more fires and not putting any of them out…just adding to the never ending bloody list😅 (Lucky cooking dinner isn’t one of them or no one would eat 😆)

Errry school holidays my intentions are sky-high, but my productivity goes out the window… the day flies past without a heap of achievement and a lot of fluffing around 🤦🏼‍♀️

Anyone got some tips for conquering the procrastination monster? 💪

The best way to start the school hols…..

✅ Mask 1 for the anti-aging
✅ Mask 2 for Easter detoxing
✅ T2 Wakey Wakey for the goodness
✅ Udemy for the new learning

What’s on your school holiday agenda today?

A message to the fabulous ladies out there ! 🥰

(To my men friends, you can absolutely read on if you like - the woman in your life will appreciate it I am very sure ☺️)

I wanted to chat about something super important today. Lately, I’ve noticed so many of us are caught up in this whirlwind of busyness (seriously, is it just me or does it seem extra crazy this year?). And scarily it’s taking a toll on our well-being – mentally and even physically.

But! Did you know there’s a secret weapon tucked away in our female hormone hierarchy? Yup, it’s a real thing, and I only stumbled upon it in my 50s 🤦🏼‍♀️

Check it out:
👇🏻
Oxytocin (our happiness booster)
⬇️
Cortisol (hello stress!)
⬇️
Insulin (keeping our energy in check)
⬇️
S*x hormones (yep, those reproduction buddies)
⁃ Oestrogen (the life of the party)
⁃ Progesterone (the calm and collected one)
⁃ Testosterone (bringing the power!)

The bottom line? Our happiness is key for our long-term health. Imagine that…😉

So, here’s the scoop: we all need to find our happy place and visit it often. Why? Because it helps dial down our stress levels, which in turn keeps our insulin and hormones in check, giving us a balanced mind and body🙌🏻

(This is especially crucial in peri/post menopause when reproduction is a no-go and hormone levels go haywire 🤦🏼‍♀️)

Now, easier said than done, right? 🫣 But hey, you’ve got the power to choose YOU. Not all the time, but way more often than you think.

✅ Learn to say no.
✅ Delegate like a boss.
✅ Hit pause (like booking a quick getaway with your fave human👇🏻)
✅ And most importantly, ditch the guilt!

Now, I’m certainly no expert, but I’ve got a game-changer of a link with some pro advice. Trust me, it’s a must-listen so shout out if you’d like me to share it with you 💪🏻

So, tell me, did you need to hear this today? What’s one thing you’ll do for yourself TODAY to dial down the stress? I wanna hear it 🤗
