After a long day, the last thing you probably want to do is spend another hour taking care of yourself. But an evening self-care routine is essential for your mental and physical wellbeing. Just a few simple steps can help you relax, refresh, and renew yourself so that you're ready to face tomorrow.
1. Start by washing your face with a gentle cleanser together with a reusable face scrubbie. This will remove any dirt, makeup, or pollution that's accumulated on your skin during the day and exfoliates your skin at the same time. Follow up with a lightweight moisturiser to soothe and hydrate your skin.
2. While your face is nourishing, take the time to brush your hair and style it the way you want it to look for the next day. This will save you time in the morning and help you avoid feeling rushed or frazzled.
3. Next, it's time for a relaxing bath or shower. Add some soothing aromatherapy shower steamers in your shower or bath salts to your bathtub. Grab your favourite candle, and light it next to the bath. Take this opportunity to really unwind and let all your stress melt away.
4. After you've taken care of your body, it's time to take care of your mind. Spend a few minutes reading, journaling, meditating or praying. This will help quiet any racing thoughts and allow you to drift off to sleep more easily later on. Our Muraqabah Gift Set is perfect in setting the mood for meditation or prayers.
5. Finally, before bedtime, apply a rich night cream to your face and neck. This will give your skin an extra boost of hydration overnight so that you wake up looking refreshed and radiant. A nightly self-care routine may seem like a lot of work, but it's actually quite simple - and it's worth it! By taking just a few minutes each evening to relax and refresh yourself, you'll wake up feeling rested and ready to take on the new day. Give it a try tonight!
