Moisturiser gets plenty of attention in the colder months, but there are a few other habits that can make just as much difference 🥶

🚿 Long, hot showers feel wonderful on a cold morning, but they also wash away the skin's natural protective oils. Keeping the water warm rather than hot can help prevent that tight, dry feeling afterwards
💧Indoor heating can dry the air surprisingly quickly. A humidifier, or even a bowl of water near the heater, can add a little moisture back into the room
💋 Lips are often the first place to become dry, so don't wait until they're cracked before reaching for lip balm
🙌 And don't forget your hands. Between cold weather and constant washing, they've been working all Winter and appreciate a little extra care in Spring

Some scents are made to impress and Sia was made to celebrate joy 🤗

Named after Sarah's daughter - Sia means bringer of joy, and this 100% natural perfume was created to capture that exact feeling. Ylang ylang, geranium and jasmine create soft floral notes, balanced by the warmth of vanilla and cedarwood.

Made with pure botanicals and no synthetic fragrance, simply roll onto your pulse points and enjoy it throughout the day 💐

Since last month’s 'Guess the Herb' was clearly far too easy… we’re making you work for this one .... Who can tell us which herb this is? 👀

🌱 I’m part of a very familiar plant family, but I’m not the variety you’ll usually find in your mojito
🌱 One of my naturally occurring compounds is famous for creating a sensation on the skin that has nothing to do with its actual temperature
🌱 I’ve been traditionally valued for my intensely aromatic leaves and have a particularly high concentration of one very recognisable plant compound
🌱 Despite my name giving a nod to one country, my botanical roots stretch much further

Comment with what you think the answer is and we will pick one lucky correct answer to win a product of their choice!

Did you know, blackheads aren't dirt, they’re simply clogged pores 🤔

They form when excess oil and dead skin cells build up inside a pore. Because the pore stays open, the contents react with the air and darken, creating the black appearance.

The best way to manage them isn't by scrubbing harder 🙅‍♀️

Gentle cleansing, regular exfoliation and ingredients that support healthy skin turnover help keep pores clear before congestion builds. Steam can also help soften blockages, making them easier to remove gently if needed 🧖‍♀️

Picking and squeezing often causes more irritation and can increase the risk of scarring, so a gentle, consistent routine is usually the best approach 🌿

We think carefully about what goes onto our skin, but it’s worth thinking about what touches it all day too 🤔

Synthetic fabrics can trap heat and moisture against the skin, sometimes contributing to irritation or breakouts. Natural fibres like cotton, linen and wool allow better airflow and help keep skin cooler and drier.

Healthy skin isn't just about skincare. Your everyday environment matters too 💚

Castor & Tamanu are two of the hardest-working oils in our Deep Relief Balm ... and both worth understanding 🤓

Castor oil is a natural carrier. It penetrates deeply into skin and soft tissue, effectively drawing the other healing botanicals with it to where they're needed most. It's not just a base, it works hard! 💪

Tamanu oil has a long history of use for pain and inflammation. It helps reduce swelling in joints and nerves and works synergistically with the other ingredients to ease discomfort rather than just masking it 🌿

Together with Peppermint Essential Oil for immediate cooling relief, these two oils make the balm something genuinely effective. Worth keeping on hand, especially if joint stiffness is something you notice more in cooler months or during the hormonal shifts of menopause 💚

Did you know that magnesium is involved with more than 600 chemical processes within your body, every single day?! 🤯

It plays an important role in muscle and nervous system function, helps regulate the body's stress response, and is involved in many of the enzymes that support healthy hormone function!

Pumpkin seeds, almonds and dark chocolate are some of the best food sources, but magnesium is also found in many herbs too. Coriander, sage, nettles and chives are all wonderful ways to add a little extra magnesium to everyday meals, while bringing plenty of flavour to the table 😋
