Nourish London Geranium & Jasmine Body Duo

With those last minute gifts to still to buy, Nourish London have an incredible selection of products, perfectly suited to everyone. In recent months, I have enjoyed getting to know Nourish London, their Probiotic Multi-Mineral Repair Mask is just heavenly. 

Today I am sharing the Nourish London Geranium & Jasmine Body Duo and anyone who knows me will know just how much I adore anything featuring Jasmine.  Described as being fragranced with the soothing essential oils of Geranium and Jasmine, this Body Duo is said to give the ultimate at-home spa experience.

Inside the beautifully presented gift box you will find:

• Geranium & Jasmine Shower Gel – 200ml
• Geranium & Jasmine Body Cream - 50ml

Coming together, Geranium is the scent that is calming and uplifting and is an oil which helps with stress and tension, when paired with Jasmine, which is soothing and relaxing you have quite the team.  Also included is both shea butter and aloe Vera for their moisturising properties.

The shower gel which is designed to cleanse the skin, is wonderfully soft and definitely sits within the luxury category. It creates the most relaxing scent and because of the shea butter, it is soft and leaves your skin feeling smooth to the touch.  Add to the Body Cream, which is really rich and just has a delightful texture, it uses shea butter, antioxidant prickly pear and firming brown algae extract to contour and nourish before those scents of Jasmine and Geranium again make themselves known to delicately scent the skin.

This Nourish London Geranium and Jasmine Duo comes beautifully packaged in fully recyclable materials and presented in a recyclable card gift box and is priced at just £20.

Holistic Silk Pure Silk Lavender Face Pillow

Until you have tried a silk eye mask, you haven't felt luxury and Holistic Silk is a brand I just happen to absolutely love.  I was very kindly sent their Pure Silk Lavender Face Pillow and it might be my most favourite thing ever.

Described as being a full face pillow, it is made from skin-loving hypoallergenic 100% 22 momme Mulberry Silk and it is just beautiful. It was inspired by the experience of extensive lockdown anxiety and Holistic Silk refers to it as being their most powerful de-stressing tool yet.

Let the perfectly weighted seeds and Lavender work their magic whilst your skin reaps the benefits of Pure Mulberry Silk to soothe and hydrate. Enjoy a facial massage whenever you need one.

Available in a range of colours, I have the beautiful Saffron shade and it can be used to help to relieve headaches, migraines, eye strain, sinus pain and perhaps the most useful aspect - hangovers. It can also be used to induce sleep and silence mind chatter and is ideal for power naps, making a ten minute rest feel like an hour.

To get the best use out of this face pillow, the advice is to very gently squeeze to release the soothing and sleep inducing Lavender fragrance, whilst rotating to ensure seeds are evenly distributed. Then, all you have to do is simply lie back and place over your face to promote deep relaxation.

As I suffer with headaches, a condition called Barometric headaches to be precise, I am never keen to take over the counter drugs, preferring instead to let my body work it out alone, that said, I do use cold flannels, eye masks and temple rubs.  During my last few flare ups of headaches, I took to using this Face Pillow and as you can see, it is a bit of an odd look.

So, being shaped like a sheet mask, there is, as you can see vents for both your nose and mouth and because it is perfectly weighted with organic seeds and real Lavender, it works to gently stimulate those facial acupressure points for clarity and calmness. 

For me and my headaches, I've found the weightiness of it to be soothing and relaxing and just laying down, with my eyes completely covered, gives me that time out and it fits perfectly to my face. If you can't already tell, I just absolutely love it and the time out it gives me to unwind, relax and de-stress makes it worth every penny.

You can find this mask from Holistic Silk right here for £90

Car Care Resolutions That Every Car Owner Should Follow in 2023

New Year is around the corner and every year at 31st December, we make some resolutions and goals to become the best version of ourselves throughout the year. These resolutions could be related to family, lifestyle, fitness, emotional well-being etc. We often forget about our most usable possession, our vehicle. As a car owner, it is also our responsibility to take good care of our car. This new year, let’s make some car care resolutions to help your vehicle running at its best.

Clean your car

Don’t forget to keep your car looking clean and tidy from both inside and outside. Not just on weekends, try to clean the dirt out of the car regularly. If you spilled some coffee in the morning or have some empty snack wrappers lying around, immediately clear them out. Make sure that the steering, dashboard, handles and console are clean to avoid the risk of unhealthy bacteria.

Change your car oil. It’s the best way to keep a car’s engine healthy. A little amount every month saves you from hundreds and thousands. If you are planning to head out for a Christmas trip and intend to travel a few thousand miles then probably changing your oil right now is a good idea. Change the oil at your earliest convenience before it damages and causes wear to the engine.

Maintain your Car

Just like you stick to your diet plan, make sure to stick to your car service schedule the same way. It will help to keep your car condition in a healthy state and help to avoid breakdowns on your important journeys. Moreover, if you want to sell the car in the future, a potential buyer will see the car’s maintenance history and it will improve the selling price. Related to car maintenance, MOT is the most vital one. It is also mandatory under UK law. Make sure you are doing your car’s MOT on time. If you haven’t booked yet, book an early MOT testing service at Elite MOT Garage London to ensure you get a date and time convenient to you!

Learn to do basic car maintenance

There are some simple tasks you can do to maintain your car well by yourself. Start with simple things like learn to replace windshield wipers. Its no rocket science, all you need to do is try putting it on once.

Learning other simple car maintenance elements like changing oil, checking other fluids, checking the tyre pressure, changing a tyre are all skills that come in handy. Try learning them to enhance your basic skill level and to reduce your dependence on your local garage.
