suki - serious botanical results

i love, love, love this skin care range! 

not only do the products smell divine, they actually deliver results - something i've found a lot of big name, expensive brands do not!  plus it boasts a 100% synthetic-free solution (so no nasties) and all the ingredients are fair trade, organic or biodynamic where possible,  many of the products are vegan and even the packaging uses recycled materials & vegetable inks - this is one seriously committed eco & animal friendly brand.

one of my all time favourite products is the award winning exfoliate foaming cleanser.  it's the best scrub i've used (i also leave it on as a mask for 15 min once a week).  Exfoliation is so important in summer as exposure to the sun results in moisture loss and if you don't get rid of the build up of dead cells, you prevent moisture from re-entering your skin - not a good look! 

you can also buy it in a little kit that comes with toner & moisturiser.  i haven't tried the moisturiser yet, but the toner is great.

suki products are available from Seabiscuit@bliss

Reflexology

Nothing relaxes me faster than having my feet rubbed, and as stress is linked to so many ailments, what could be better than a reflexology session (with a qualified therapist!) to calm the nervous system and send the message to the body to relax?! I've been having treatments with the very talented therapist - Janicke Michel - an hour of pure, healing, bliss!

Reflexology is an holistic therapy that has been around in different forms since ancient Egyptian times and works by stimulating reflexes on the feet. This therapy works on the  premise that all parts of the mind and body are connected and that the entire body can be mapped on the feet, so by working on the feet it is possible to work on every part of the body.  

Aside from being a wonderfully relaxing experience(i fall asleep every time!), Reflexology has also been found to be helpful in promoting balance, improving circulation and can assist in the body's own healing process - to my mind, that's a pretty perfect pampering treatment!
