Something as simple as applying an aromatic vanilla body butter after a hot shower can become stress care. This is the kind of product that can nourish your skin, soothe your senses, and help bring you back down to earth after a tense day.
Melt Away Those Feelings of Tension
No matter the cause of your tension, parts of your skincare ritual can help melt away those feelings. Start in the shower with highly aromatic shower steamers. Drop one on the shower floor under a stream of hot water, and breathe in as the invigorating aroma rises.
A hot shower alone can help ease feelings of tension, but when natural scents like bergamot and eucalyptus wrap around you, they can instantly elevate your experience. Close your eyes, breathe, and relax.
After your shower, and while your skin is still warm and damp, elevate the experience further with natural body butter (it can even be bergamot and eucalyptus). It can help nourish and moisturize your skin while the aromatics help you feel more centered.
Nourish Your Stressed Skin
Our skin can react to any number of stressors. All kinds of environmental stressors, for instance, can leave skin dry, dull, and tired. For some people, it may even go beyond “just” dry skin. Certain stressors may also provoke dermatitis and eczema.
In the spring, dermatitis and eczema can be triggered as responses to all kinds of common spring allergens such as grasses. Even feelings of tension may leave skin feeling dry, itchy, and irritated. That’s just how connected the body is.
