Setting ourselves unrealistic ‘New Year goals’ that cause unnecessary angst is something we need to leave in 2023.
Our 2024 mindset should look like setting small, achievable goals such as:
Starting some simple but effective Hot Girl Habits, going on daily short walks, trying our best to eat healthier (a very hard task off the back of summer holidays so let’s not guilt ourselves if we slip up) getting adequate sleep and trying very hard (talking to myself) to be consistent with exercise.
To complement our “we’re-not-trying-to-excel-we’re-just-trying-our-best” approach in 2024, incorporating wellness products can also help with a holistic approach to your daily wellbeing.
Because as we know, the mind, body and soul are all connected.
So it's absolutely no coincidence that because of this knowledge, the growing demand in wellness products has seen a big rise.
Perhaps you’re looking to dial up your skin health from the inside out with a collagen powder?
Even a simple practice like applying a relaxing body oil post-shower or indulging in a self-love toy can be a calming experience.
And not to sound all ‘woo-woo’, but wellness is a lifestyle, it takes time, effort and consistency.
To celebrate our wellness sale this week (guys, we seriously have the best online beauty sales in Australia) which ends on Friday 9th February 2024, we’ve rounded up 6 wellness products to consider adding to your 2024 wellbeing checklist.
*Please note, not all of these self-care and wellness products are part of the sale.
1. Vida Glow Collagen Liquid Advance.
In the ever-evolving landscape of wellness, the appetite for supplements that support skin, hair and nail growth is starting to show in our everyday lives.
So much so that just in the last month alone I've had friends and family ask me more about gut and collagen powders or hair growth supplements than their usual weekly DMs about skincare and the best hair oil.
If you want to dive into the world of collagen supplements, the Vida Glow Collagen Liquid Advance is one to have on your radar.
A higher dose collagen peptide supplement that’s formulated with 5g of Vida Glow's clinically proven natural marine collagen as well as an antioxidant complex B-blend, vitamin C and manuka honey all of which work on collagen synthesis so you're left with firmer-looking skin; hair and nails are left feeling stronger too.
But the best part is you don't even have to mix it with anything. You can just rip open one of these powerful sachets and down it straight from the packet!
2. Maison Balzac Le Soleil Incense Box.
I recently visited a friend’s gorgeous new home and as soon as I walked in, I was spellbound by a gorgeous, earthy scent that immediately made me feel more calm and instantly put me in a better mood.
“Please tell me what this smell is immediately.”
She showed me this Maison Balzac incense box!
While not part of the sale, this was still a must on my wellness slash self-care list.
I’ve tried incense sticks from other brands before and found the scent didn't last or wasn't strong enough to fill the whole room.
Not only did she influence me to buy the rubber Crocs thongs she was so stylishly sauntering around her house in, but I’ve also added these incense sticks (that come in a few different flavours) to my next staff order.
If that’s not self-caring in your most sacred space, I don’t know what is.
3. Womanizer Liberty 2 Purple.
Locked in a health retreat in Bali this year as part of your self-care era?
Pack this in your bag too.
Self pleasure is known to have health benefits and this powerful, waterproof, compact and rechargeable self-love toy is here to help.
The Womanzier Liberty 2 boasts a clitoral stimulator with 6 pleasure settings, unique air vibration technology with a hygienic travel cover.
It also brags a very impressive 120 minutes operating time so, feel good for as long you please!
4. Grown Alchemist Body Treatment Oil.
Sometimes it’s the small things.
Just the sensorial experience alone of applying a body care product after a shower can make us feel more relaxed after a stressful or anxiety-inducing day.
On my personal wishlist, is the Grown Alchemist Body Treatment Oil.
Infused with a blend of potent and nourishing oils such as tamanu oil (repairs), camelia seed oil (increases suppleness and promotes healing), sea buckthorn berry (regenerates skin and helps with the appearance of stretch marks and scars) and ylang ylang essential oil (alleviates stress).
Both a body and a massage oil, this certified organic product will give you softer skin while its aromatic properties will leave you feeling more calm and relaxed.
I’ll also be stocking up on the much-loved L'Occitane Almond Shower Oil which has gotten me through many tearful showers and left me feeling lighter, more relaxed and smelling delicious.
5. The Beauty Chef Glow Inner Beauty Essential.
The Beauty Chef’s famous Glow powder has been keeping many beauty editors’ complexions radiant and healthier overall for years (I even took some sachets with me on a holiday to Turkey and popped it into my Turkish tea). Anything for good skin on travel.
Again, this *does not* replace an actual healthy diet but serves as a nice add-on (because why not drink your way to better skin too?).
And now they've added The Beauty Chef Glow AGELESS Inner Beauty Essential 150g powder which is an essential supplement for women aged 50+ to support healthy skin, energy, gut, hormone and bone health.
Final Thoughts...
It bears repeating a few more times, these are supplements, they are here to complement a healthy diet and regular exercise, not replace it friends.
