Our skin will only ever be as good as our skincare routine. Indeed, sometimes figuring out the correct order of skincare could be quite confusing. Yet, what we use and how we use it, genuinely matters. Layering skincare incorrectly, or for that matter choosing the wrong formulas for our skin type, could render them ineffective or irritate our facial skin. Let me walk you through the steps of my daily skincare routine and introduce you to a lovely affordable brand that delivers results. Daily Skin Care Routine Steps The rule of thumb when applying skincare is to apply the lightest first and the heaviest last since thinner products…

MORNING SKINCARE ROUTINE FOR BUSY MOMS
Are you a busy mom in search for a quick but qualitative morning skincare routine? I know that when most moms hear the term “self-care” they respond with a major eye-roll. Taking time for ourselves in the midst of a demanding work and caregiving schedule can often feel IMpossible. And sometimes there is this mom guilt that we are doing something for ourselves rather than for the family. But, let me tell you, self-care should not feel as guilt. It is giving the world THE BEST OF YOU, rather than what’s LEFT OF YOU. Afterall, the secret of a mom having a skincare routine is not in the time we…

NATURAL SKINCARE WITH ALGAE OIL
I am nicer when my skin looks good. That is why I invest time and care in turning my skin into one of my most precious accesories. Still, I am not longer 20. Age, stress and the environment inevitably leave their mark on my skin. And although I always answer the question “How old are you?” with “I am 21!”, my skin reminds me of its strict requirements for qualitative care. That is how I found about Clochee. To be completely honest, I bought the Clochee Anti-wrinkle Day Creme as a gift for a friend. But the lockdown quickly reminded me of how the plans are made to be changed.…

HEALTHY & BEAUTIFUL SKIN WITH CLARISONIC AND CLINIQUE
So much subjectivity in one single perception – beauty. For me it has always been a feeling of comfort in my own skin and reflection in the eyes of the viewer. Beauty is always around – (a) symmetric, prosaic, enigmatic. One of my greatest sensations of beauty, lately, has been the healthy and beautiful skin. And for me, it all starts with Clarisonic and Clinique. Over the years, I have benefited from all kinds of procedures and cosmetics. However, lately I have been interested in the skincare I can give myself at home. Just because the five personalities that live in me – MomWifeMompreneurHousewifeWonderWoman – usually get me out of…

MY FESTIVE COSMETICS SELECTION
Women have two weapons – cosmetics and tears. And since it is the most magical time of the year, I would rather focus on the first. When I was younger I used to stick to the skincare cosmetics I was happy with. Nowadays, however, I love trying new things. Every time I am to buy a new skincare product, I am looking for brands I have not used before or new care from the brands that I love. I am a picky customer, however. I always do my research before buying anything new. I love treating my skincare as jewlery for the face. And since we are in the most glamorous…

TIPS FOR HAVING A HEALTHY AND SHINY HAIR
Precisely beause I believe that: choosing a hairdresser has always been one of the longest and most dramatic processes for me. My most recent example is from a few years ago when I moved to Scotland. I spent days reading reviews of various salons and hairdressers, and finally made an appointment with a super-rated hairdresser near my place. A brief overview of our meeting: While I was sitting peacefully in the chair I heard barking behind me (most salons are pet friendly here). A big, friendly dog was sitting in the corner a few meters away. Everything was going wonderfully until it turned out that the hairy sweetheart ate…

GLAMOR IS ABOUT FEELING GOOD IN YOUR SKIN: new cosmetics review
My friends and me often joke that there are two type of women. Those who travel and all the rest. As real adventurers, the world is our home. For years, upon returning from a trip abroad, I have been carrying wih me magnets or small souvenirs. For me. For friends. For the memories. For some time now, however, I have become more practical. Or maybe I have simply changed. Either way, the space for magnets and souvenirs in the suitcase now is taken up by cosmetics. I am curious to try out new things. I love exploring not only new cultures, cuisines, customs, but also cosmetics made by local companies. My…

SKIN AND HAIR BEAUTY CARE WITH LUSH
My skin and hair are the two main accessories that I am truly obsessed with. I love the freedom of going out with minimal makeup and feeling confident and beautiful. Since I am a mom, sleep is seldom fulfilling, so beauty sleep is more rare a phenomenon than even a black diamond. In my daily routine I focus mainly on cleansing and hydrating rituals that refresh my skin, make it velvety, healthy and beautiful. The same rule applies to my hair, which I have taken extra care of after pregnancy, as the tsunami of hormones and the baby altogether have taken their toll. In this article I tell you about…
