We are leaving the phrase “I’ll do it tomorrow” in 2024! Start putting yourself first and making self care a priority. Here are 9 easy self care tips you can try today which I can guarantee will improve your mood, wellbeing and health in 2025.
1. Stay Hydrated.
It is recommended to drink at least 2 litres of water each day. Although this may sound like a lot, the benefits are so worth it. Keeping your body hydrated doesn’t only boost your physical performance such as decreased fatigue, increased energy levels and less muscle cramps it is also key for your skin's health. Keeping your skin hydrated maintains moisture promoting a healthy, glowing complexion allowing your self tan to glide on smoothly and develop evenly. All of our self tanning foams are infused with elfamoist, an intense moisturising ingredient to allow the tanning foam to deeply absorb without dryness, resulting in a deeper, longer lasting tan.
Our Nudity Aqua Facial Tanning Mist is the perfect combination of self tan and skin care. Infused with niacinamide it improves your skin's texture and reduces pores whilst giving you a radiant tan.
2. Take a Bath
Sometimes half an hour to yourself in a relaxing bath is all you need. It can help cleanse your mind and your body. Upgrade your bath time with the Rose and Caramel Purity Tan Removing Bubble Bath to effortlessly remove your tan without having to do anything. Formulated with rejuvenating salts to refresh your skin.
3. Apply a Fresh Layer of Tan
Call us bias but waking up with a fresh tan will immediately boost your confidence and all it takes is 20 minutes before bed. Start with your favourite Rose and Caramel self tanning mousse which will be perfectly suited to your skin tone and apply in circular motions with our luxury tanning mitt. Don't forget about our back tanner because arguing with your sister so she will tan your back isn't a relaxing addition to your self care night. For a deeper tan add an extra layer of mousse before locking your tan in with our Nudity Aerosol. Follow these simple steps and you'll wake up feeling like a whole new person.
4. Move Your Body
It is important to find an exercise which works for you whether this is running, weightlifting or even just going on a walk with your loved ones. Moving your body for as little as 30 minutes a day helps boost endorphins to improve your mood. Rose and Caramel have got you covered with our 95% transfer free tan Nudity which comes as a foam or an aerosol. So you can exercise, sweat and be tanned without ruining any of your clothes or bed sheets when it's time to take the much deserved nap after working out.
5. Improve Your Skincare Routine
Whether you're hoping to unclog your pores or remove your tan, our Purity Ultra Cleanse Mask Stick does both. Packed with super ingredients our mask stick purifies, hydrates and exfoliates whilst boosting the skin's collagen production to increase elasticity. Simply swipe over your face to apply a generous layer and let sit until it's ready to wash off with a face cloth. To finish off add multiple drops of our Unity Face Tanning Drops to your moisturiser to keep your skin bronzed and hydrated. Remember the more drops you add the darker your tan will go.
6. Prioritise Your Sleep
It is recommended that adults get 7-9 hours of sleep each night as sleeping less than this on a regular basis can lead to many health issues. By getting enough hours of sleep at night it also gives an opportunity for your tan to develop, so it's a win win if you ask me. After applying your self tan, pick out your cosiest PJs, pop on your favourite film and get ready for a good night's sleep whilst your tan marinates. This way you will wake up fresh and tanned! You don't even have to worry about stained bed sheets with our clear to golden Nudity tanning foam or Nudity aerosol.
7. Practice Mindfulness and Gratitude
Sometimes we can get so distracted by the stressful aspects of our life that we forget to value and appreciate the little things ( like a great self tan routine thanks to Rose and Caramel ). A great way to realise that there are many things in your life to be grateful for is by starting and finishing your day with journaling. Whether you spend five minutes or half an hour on it as long as you stick to it daily you will begin to see the benefits. Such as an improved mood, decreased stress/anxiety, and a better outlook on life.
8. Make Yourself Feel Pretty
Of course everyone should feel confident in their own skin with or without makeup. However sometimes perfecting our makeup routine and giving ourselves a little glow up can have a huge impact on our mood leading to a better day. Rose and Caramel have perfected the makeup products you need to enhance your natural features. Starting with Wonder Blur: It is the perfect formula of bronzing whilst smoothing.
