According to Renaissance Massage Therapy Clinic & Spa, hand and nail hygiene has never been more important. By keeping nails trimmed, and cuticles intact, it helps prevent infections, and bacteria from living underneath the nails. Cuticles are very important as they create a barrier to prevent infection. Couleur Caramel's organic cuticle oil combines organic castor oil, sweet almond oil and olive oil to protect and nourish the nails and cuticles. Also, try the Seaflora’s wild sea kelp body lotion that combines a blend of seaweed, coconut and apricot helping to hydrate, ease dryness and ease skin irritations.
Don’t forget to give your feet some much needed attention with a good soak!. Give your feet a good soak! Keeping feet clean and soaking them regularly reduces problems caused by harmful bacteria and it can ward off fungal infections such as athlete's foot. Make sure you dry your feet thoroughly after washing, especially between your toes. Bacteria and fungi can thrive in a wet environment.
Smoothing skin with lotion can prevent cracking on the heels and edges of your feet. By adding in a gentle scrub, you can help remove loose skin and callus. Wild rockweed exfoliant or oil-free body polish for very callused feet is available at Renaissance Massage Therapy Clinic & Spa. This product can help remove dead skin cells and impurities while detoxifying and revitalizing the skin.
Beauty is not simply a matter of DNA! Your daily habits and what you choose to put on your face may have a big impact. Purdy Natural offers a makeup collection made with all natural earthy ingredients.
It is important to nourish your facial skin before applying makeup.

It is also high in vitamin A, B, D and E, making it great for puffy under-eyes. The kit has all the products you need for a perfect at home facial!
