It’s mid February and your skin hasn’t seen the sun in months.  In fact, your skin probably hasn’t seen the light of day since August  if you live in an area that experiences seasonal changes.  Pretty skin is still under all those layers of clothing and dry skin, you just need to know how to perfect gorgeous skin year-round.  The major culprit of ugly winter skin is lack of moisture.  One of the easiest ways to add moisture to your skin in seconds is by applying a great body oil to your skin directly after your shower.  If you are a bath-person, simply add the oil to your bath water.  It’s quicker than applying lotion to every square inch of your skin, and it instantly gives your skin a moisturized, sexy look.   It also makes your shower smell like a spa!  The benefits of aromatherapy are monumental.  How do you keep your skin looking sensational in the winter months?  It’s a question I get all the time.  This is it…this is the secret.  Simply smooth your favorite body oil (mine’s Beach and Grapefruit) all over your skin directly out of the shower or bath, then pat dry with a towel.  Of note, use a product that doesn’t leave your skin dripping in oil; rather, use a great skin-absorbing oil.  Higher quality oils will be absorbed by the skin better and more quickly than a mineral oil, for instance, will.  And it’s nice to know that you are sporting sexy skin under those layers!

Great skincare products can be found right in the pantry of your kitchen.  Not only are they healthier for you, they are also on the cheap.  Baking soda is a great way to exfoliate your skin.  Because baking soda contains tiny granules of sodium bicarbonate, it makes for the perfect substance to lightly exfoliate your skin.  It also has antiseptic properties that will ward off breakouts.  Simply make a paste with a palm-full of baking soda combined with a small amount of water.  Apply to face, working in a circular motion, and allow to dry for three minutes.  Rinse away with warm water, followed with a splash of cold to close pores.  Keeps your skin looking refreshed and blemish-free.

Wintertime doesn’t mean you have to put up with skin that’s not sexy.  Bring sexy back with one easy step…moisture.  Your skin needs extra moisturizing during winter months to lock in hydration.  One of the easiest and fastest steps to achieve this is to add a moisturizing body oil to your skin right after your shower.  After your shower, before toweling off and while skin is still wet, apply your moisturizing oil to every inch of your skin.  Your skin will not only drink up the moisturizing oil, but also the water that’s on your skin.  Lightly towel off, and you’re all set to be sexy.  Not to mention, you’ll smell amazing.  Try Supernatural Botanicals’ top-selling, all-natural line of Moisturizing Oils.

We like to keep the atmosphere “inspirational” in our studio, and there’s no better way of doing that than to paint the walls…or at least a one focal wall of color.  Which color do you feel you’d be your most creative in?  Green, yellow, or orange?

Did you know that your skin absorbs approximately five cups of water every time you take a shower?  With winter on our heels, be sure to add extra moisture to your skin when you get out of the shower with either a great lotion or great body oil.

The humidity in the summertime can give your hair a case of the frizzies.  In a matter of minutes, humidity and heat can make your hair a mess.  Use this insider’s secret to have hot looking hair in the summertime.  Dab a small amount of hand lotion to instantly smooth your hair.  The lotion’s moisture helps fight frizz by filling hollow hair follicles, preventing them from soaking up any frizz-inducing moisture in the air. Make sure you only use a dab so that it doesn’t make your hair look greasy.  If you have dry, hair, use this technique on a daily basis.

Our fans eagerly await our summer sale on body sprays .  Wait no more!  Our once-a-year sale on Body Sprays  is here.  Shop our entire collection of Body Sprays here.
