How to Create a Daily Skincare Routine with Our Products
Home spa days are wonderful. Taking that time for pampering and nourishing is one of the most important activities you can do for yourself. Hours spent soaking, soothing, smoothing and relaxing in bubbles, lotions, and creams-it’s a recipe for a better you. And if you’re using Sage Stone Botanicals for those moments of self care, you’re undoubtedly doubly blessed!
But what about those days when you don’t have time for all that? You may need a quick and easy daily routine that gets you up and going to start your day in a much shorter amount of time.
That doesn’t mean you have to give up the feeling of a luxurious spa day. With our products, your daily routine can give you that feeling of luxury care, and healthful beauty that keeps you glowing all day long! It’s like a mini spa day every day.
Choose your favorite scents and get started on the perfect daily skin care routine for you!
Make a Plan
A daily routine should be easy. When you wake up in the morning, the last thing you need is too many choices, decisions, and distractions. Planning a routine that flows smoothly can help start your day without stress. Lay out your products and anything else you’ll need for your routine the night before. If it’s all ready to go, all you have to do is do it.
Another idea to make things run smoothly is to let other people in your household know that you will be unavailable for the duration of your morning routine. If you’re constantly distracted or interrupted when you’re trying to take a little time for yourself, it will actually take longer and be less satisfying. You may even start to resent that time, being less likely to uphold your routine. To combat this, you can put a friendly note on the bathroom door that stops the knocks before they start; try something decorative that says, “Do not disturb. I’m having Me Time.” Or try getting up a little earlier, before anyone else is awake and grab that time for yourself.
Finally, stick with the plan. The more you do it, the easier it will get. When you get to the point where it’s second nature, you can allow your mind to drift and go into an almost meditative state during this time. Breathe in the gentle scents of these products and really feel the way they smooth and moisturize your skin. You might just find that your skincare routine becomes the launching point that sends your whole day in the right direction.
Suds Up With Your Favorite Cleanse
The first step in your daily routine is to suds up with the body wash of your choice. If you like to start your day with a sense of calm, you might want to use our Lavender scented wash. It’s a popular body wash for relaxing and letting go. Start your day with a clean slate.
Maybe you’re feeling more inclined to choose a Peppermint scent, to awaken and stimulate your senses. Or if you want a more subtle scent to awaken and feel the vibrance of the day, you might want to use Tangerine and Lemongrass.
If you choose Rose Geranium and Orange, you can enjoy this sweet uplifting fragrance to ease into the day with a sense of calm and joy.
You can also choose different scents for different days. One day you might opt for a more calming scent, and other days you might want to wake up and stimulate your senses to get you going!
It’s okay to play around with different scents, so it’s a good idea to have several to choose from. The point is to pick the one you’ll use on a particular day, and have it set out for your morning routine.
Seal The Deal With Lotion
Once you’ve thoroughly immersed yourself with a botanical cleanse, followed up by a gentle towel dry, you’re ready for the next step in your daily skincare routine-lotion.
Lotion is the product that gives your face and body that extra help in maintaining moisture and replenishing the natural oils that make your skin soft, smooth, and radiant.
We have lotions that compliment the body washes in the same scents. Or you can mix it up. Depending on your preferences for each day, you can use a lotion that addresses individual needs.
For example, you may choose to use a relaxing Lavender body wash, and follow it up with a calming lavender lotion to relax your muscles and create a chill start to your day.
Or you may choose to awaken and stimulate your morning routine with a Peppermint body wash, and then use the Unscented lotion, so you can make good use of a personal favorite perfume or body spray.
Mixing it up depending on your mood and particular needs for the day is a good way to prepare yourself for whatever your day calls for.
Remember The Details
Once you’ve finished the first part of your daily routine, don’t forget the little things, like your hands and heels. These often get overlooked during the hydration process but they should be included in the daily ritual along with the rest of your skin.
Again, choose a scent from our collection of Hand & Heel Cremes that reflects the mood and needs of the day.
Winter Spice is a warm and spicy scent. Perfect for the holiday season and the cold temperatures, while keeping your hands and heels soft and nourished.
Or maybe you want to stay with the calming scent of Lavender, or the sweetly floral scent of Rose Geranium and Orange.
Your hands are on the frontlines of your life, and they deserve the care and skin protection they need to meet the world! And your heels and feet are your foundation. Don’t neglect these important areas when you perform your daily skincare routine. It’s easier to treat them daily, than try and catch up and repair skin that got left out to dry on a regular basis.
Top It Off With Kissable Lips
Whether you’re kissing a partner, your baby, or even your favorite pet, your lips lead the way. Keep your lips soft and protected with lip balms in two scented options, Peppermint or Tangerine. Or try the Unscented if you prefer to keep it plain and simple.
These lip balms contain shea butter, so they actually nourish your lips, not just coat them. It’s a perfect way to top off your skincare routine, knowing that you’ve covered every bit of your beautiful skin with moisture and replenishment.
Soft lips can say,” I love you”, to those you care about. And a complete daily skin care routine can help you say, “I love you” to yourself.
Having a quick and easy skin care routine doesn’t have to be a rushing, mindless whirlwind. By using a few helpful tips, your daily routine can be a compliment to your home spa days, and keep the love going throughout the week, feeling nourished and replenished with every morning routine.
Remember to:
Plan the night before and select the desired products and scents for your mood.
Prepare your space, eliminating distractions and interruptions.
Begin with a soothing cleanse. Totally immerse yourself in sudsy bubbles!
After a thorough rinse and a gentle towel dry, delicately apply your selected lotion
over your entire body, massaging the moisturizing lotion into your skin, face included!
Be sure to include your hands and heels with corresponding creme.
Finish with your favorite lip balm.
