Let’s cleanse

Beauty,13 March 2015

This morning I took a glimpse at my windows and realized they need to be cleaned as soon as possible. The windows are dirty and dusty but the fact that I recognized that only means one thing, it’s spring! When going towards sunnier days and longer nights I need to shake off this dark and cold winter we have behind us (knock on wood). I want to feel energized, light and clean. A spring cleaning of my home is already in it’s full bloom but now I need to start working on both my mind, lifestyle and appearance. I need to cut down even more on salt and sugar and remember to sweat more every week. Sweating is extremely important, especially for my skin. I do have to point out that I am not particularly found of detoxing in general, I mean diet wise (juice cleanses). But that’s a whole different story :).

As I’ve mentioned before I prefer to use natural products as much as I can. I don’t use any perfume and I want all of my skin care products to be as clean as possible. Both my skin and hair get enough of heavy products when I work, so I try to focus on keeping my daily rituals and products as skin friendly as possible.

This morning I used this Detox ultra purifying mud mask from Mádara . It instantly clarifies (and made my pores appear much smaller) and the mud binds toxins and heavy metals and helps to eliminate them. Having great masks and products at home is perfect when I want to pamper myself but don’t have the time to go to a cosmetologist for a facial.  I can highly recommend this mask especially if you have impurities or oily skin!

I am a true believer in changing products constantly. If I use the same products for too long my skin gets lazy and I feel like the effect slowly decrease. Also, I think it’s important to really make sure to give your skin what it wants at that specific moment. Maybe your skin doesn’t need as much moisture during the summer as it does in January? Right now my skin needs freshness (and miracles for that matter), so these Time Miracle products will be great for me for some time forward. And oh, I am very big on serums especially ones that are silicone free like this anti-age serum!

I’m also currently trying this Deep Moisture Cream and I’m hoping this tinted moisturizer will be perfect when I get some color on my cheeks and freckles on my nose ;).

Skin care with Mádara

Beauty,4 November 2014

I am now going to tell you about my skin care routines because that is one question that I see popping up frequently in the comment field. First of all I believe that the condition of our skin is effected by many things, not only the products that we use. Hormones, weather, diet, mood and lifestyle play a significant role on our skins well being. Keeping hydrated is very important but also fresh air, enough sleep and stress managing skills are a few important components that give our skin that extra glow.

My skin has always been dry and sensitive. After becoming a mother I noticed a big change in my skin but I knew it was because of hormones. Now I’m slowly getting back to normal and I want to keep taking extra good care of my skin, especially going towards even more cold and harsh weather.

I prefer my products to be natural and free of chemicals which is why I was happy to discover Mádara. I love to know that the products that I use are safe and natural. My skin feels much more clean knowing that my skin care products are natural and organic. I want to give my skin a break and a chance to rest and rejuvenate, especially during the night .
