Wonderful skin in Spring

I love the Spring season. In London, we just live next to St James’s Park, which I visit every day when I am here. Spring is my favourite season with the burst of new life.

Every spring reminds me of my grandfather and our magic walks to the forest to pick up the first daffodils and make bouquets of mixed spring flowers.

It was the time we used to escape by the magic black door at the bottom of the garden into another world, the wonderful world of flowers. In spring beauty, freshness of green colour leaves happen overnight.

I often think that spring time is a better time than New Year for resolutions. It’s time when nature renews herself and you feel like renewal too.

It is time to embrace new concepts, new ideas, and fresh thoughts.

It is time to think about feeding your skin from the inside out. Winter makes us want to hibernate in our caves and eat comfort food- now it’s time to emerge and start a fresher spring menu looking after our skin! This important because we don’t want to add synthetic or chemicals to already stressed skin.

Some practical help for your skin to look and feel wonderful:

Use a good Moisturiser. If your skin has become very dry for the last few months, do try my ‘Day Moisture crème’, with Angelica.

I will also advise you to use Jojoba oil with a few drops of Wheat germ added to it and placed on a damp cotton wool as your daily soothing cleanser before applying the ‘Day Moisture Crème’ which you massage, gently with finger tips.

Alternatively some women find their skin becomes very congested over winter. Deep cleanse with Papaya fruit will restore suppleness and softness with its natural exfoliating effect.

Buy a Papaya, use the pulp of the fruit add to it a few drops of wheat germ, 1 tea spoon of honey and 3 drops of essential oil of Organic Geranium or Organic Rose. Make into a paste and apply on the face and neck for at least 10 minutes. Lie down placing some damped cotton wool with Camomile tea on your eye lids. Remove the Papaya Mask with warm Camomile tea then, apply the “Day Moisture Creme” gently with finger tips.

Simply enjoy!

Now you are ready to go for a long walk and enjoy a sunny spring day and go and buy yourself some daffodils and placed them near your desk and enjoy the colour and subtle Aroma.

Best wishes
