THE RITUAL

Shake bottle and add a few pumps into your palm. Gently rub palms together to warm the oil, bring to nose and take a deep breath exhaling slowly, repeat three times. Massage into face, neck and décolletage to stimulate circulation and release environmental debris. Follow by cushioning your face in a warm steamy face cloth. Hold for 5. Softly sweep cloth over oiled areas. Repeat if necessary..

THE RESULT

This cleaning ritual stimulates circulation, lymphatic flow and deep connective tissue detoxing, aiding in the reduction of lymphatic stagnation. Plant extracts gently, yet effectively, dissolve excess sebum, deeply cleansing the pores without disrupting skin’s natural balance. Skin is left feeling pristine, thoroughly hydrated and nourished.

I like to use this cleansing oil as part of my night-time routine when I can indulge. The scent is aromatic and gives you a soothing therapeutic experience.

It feels silky on the skin as you massage it, thoroughly removing makeup and cleansing the skin without stripping it. My skin feels soft and nourished afterwards.

I’m all for multi-tasking products and The Humble Warrior doubles up as a hair and scalp therapy, massage oil, bath or shower oil, after sun care and beard oil. Bathroom minimalism at its best!

THE RITUAL

light the wick, allowing the wax to melt for 10 to 15 minutes and let the relaxing scent of jasmine, rose de mai and sweet orange calm your mind. Take a bath or enjoy a warm drink.

Blow out the flame and wait two minutes, then simply pour the warm, slightly hot wax directly onto the skin or into your hand and gently massage into your skin. Due to the low melting point of the waxes, the oil will never get too hot

This glorious, delicious and nutritious oil will leave skin silky smooth and fully nourished. It is ideal as a hot body oil, or as a soul soothing massage

This intensive skin treatment is truly luxury at its finest! Again a lovely multi-purpose product – a candle that doubles as a massaging body oil.

I love a multi-purpose candle that doubles as a massaging body oil. It is so luxurious and I can’t get enough of it.

I light this while I have a bath, after a few minutes the gorgeous aroma fills the room. After my bath I apply the warm oil over my damp skin and massage. The warmth of the oil and the massage helps to promote relaxation and melt away tension. It is a wonderful treat for the skin – beautifully smooth, moisturised, deeply soothed and nourished.

THE RESULT

a calm mind, relaxed muscles and fully nourished skin.

These products are exceptional and I truly recommend you try them out.
