Learn moreDouble Cleansing for Your Body: Why You Should Try Double Washing
If you’ve ever struggled with body odour, sweat build-up, or skin that never quite feels fresh after a shower, you’re not alone. While double cleansing has become a staple in skincare routines, the same logic can be applied to body care. Enter Double Washing—a simple but effective technique designed to deep clean, rebalance, and keep your skin fresh for longer. What is Double Washing? Double Washing is exactly what it sounds like: washing your body twice in a row. But rather than just scrubbing away dirt and rinsing, this method works in two stages to effectively remove odour-causing bacteria, support your skin’s natural balance, and leave you feeling fresher for longer. Why a Single Wash Isn’t Always EnoughMany body washes are designed to clean the skin, but when it comes to tackling persistent body odour, sweat build-up, or skin imbalances, a single wash may not be enough. Odour-causing bacteria cling to the skin, and without a thorough cleanse, they can linger even after showering. This is where Double Washing comes in. The first wash removes dirt, sweat, and bacteria, while the second wash ensures deeper cleansing, allowing active ingredients to work more effectively. How to Double Wash for Maximum Freshness Step 1: First WashLather up and rinse to remove sweat, dirt, and bacteria that have built up throughout the day (or night). This step preps the skin for a deeper clean. Step 2: Wait 1–2 MinutesAfter rinsing, allow your skin to rebalance naturally. This step is key to preventing over-drying and gives your skin’s microbiome a chance to regulate itself before the second cleanse. Step 3: Second WashReapply your body wash, this time focusing on odour-prone areas like the underarms, feet, and back. Let the lather sit for about 30 seconds before rinsing to allow the ingredients to fully activate. Step 4: Pat Dry and MoisturiseAvoid harsh towel-drying, as this can strip your skin of moisture. Instead, pat dry gently and follow up with a body moisturiser, like Calm Lotion, to lock in hydration and reinforce a fresher scent. Why Double Washing With Calm Body Wash WorksDouble cleansing first removes grime, then allows the prebiotics in Calm Wash to support good bacteria for long-term freshness - the brief waiting period helps your skin self-regulate, preventing over-cleansing or irritation. Letting the second lather sit enhances its odour-fighting power by giving antibacterial ingredients time to work effectively, then lavender’s natural antimicrobial properties can help neutralise bad odour while leaving a lasting, clean scent. Who Should Try Double Washing?Double Washing isn’t just for post-workout showers. It’s ideal for: -Anyone prone to body odour-Sweaty days or humid weather-Hormonal changes that affect body scent-Those with clogged pores or body acne-People who love an extra-fresh, long-lasting clean The Best Products for Double WashingFor this method to be most effective, choosing the right body wash is key. Calm Body Wash is a prebiotic-rich formula with a strong natural lavender aroma, making it perfect for this routine. The prebiotics help support your skin’s good bacteria, while lavender’s antimicrobial properties work to keep odour at bay. Pair it with Calm Body Lotion to extend the fresh feeling all day long. Try it for yourself and see the difference. Your skin (and everyone around you) will thank you. :-)

Learn moreThe Ozempic Glow Is Trending... But Can Weight Loss Dull Your Skin?
If you're part of the beauty scene—or even if you're not—you'd be hard-pressed not to have heard of Ozempic. Ozempic (and other GLP-1 medications) have become a hot topic, especially amongst celebrities, who have transformed themselves on the drug due to its ability to help manage weight loss and metabolic health. One of the most talked-about side effects of Ozempic use is the so-called ‘Ozempic Glow’—a radiant, clearer complexion that many users report as their blood sugar stabilises and inflammation decreases. And it's true, metabolism can improve skin health, but rapid weight loss also comes with challenges, including dehydration, sagging, and loss of plumpness. So, how do you keep your skin firm, luminous, and healthy while shedding pounds? Let’s break it down... Why Weight Loss Affects Your Skin Your skin reflects what’s happening inside your body, and metabolic shifts—whether from diet changes, medication, or weight loss—can have dramatic effects. The Ozempic Glow comes from improved insulin sensitivity and reduced inflammation, which can make skin appear smoother and more vibrant. However, weight loss, particularly when it happens quickly, can also lead to:Dehydration – Losing water weight can strip moisture from your skin, making it look dull and dry.Loss of Elasticity – The fat that once supported your skin diminishes, potentially leading to sagging, especially around the face.Increased Sensitivity – As your body adjusts to metabolic changes, your skin may become more reactive or prone to irritation.But don’t worry—there are plenty of ways to keep your skin glowing, hydrated, and firm as your body transforms. The Glow-Up Formula: Diet, Hydration & SkincareIf you’re on a weight loss journey, prioritising skin health is key. Here’s what you need to focus on: 1. Hydrate—Inside and OutDrinking plenty of water is essential, but your skin also needs topical hydration to maintain its elasticity and glow. Pro tip: Look for hyaluronic acid, a powerhouse ingredient that holds up to 1,000 times its weight in water, keeping skin plump and dewy. Try: The Skin & Tonic Hyaluronic Acid Serum - Plump Up - will give you an instant moisture boost. 2. Feed Your Skin with the Right NutrientsA balanced diet rich in healthy fats, antioxidants, and collagen-supporting foods helps strengthen and nourish the skin from within. ✔️ Omega-3s (found in salmon, flaxseeds, walnuts) reduce inflammation and dryness.✔️ Vitamin C & Antioxidants (from berries, citrus, leafy greens) support collagen production.✔️ Healthy Fats (avocados, nuts, olive oil) keep skin supple and moisturised. 3. Protect and Strengthen Your Skin BarrierWeight loss can make your skin more sensitive, so it’s important to use gentle, nourishing skincare to maintain balance. Soothe & Refresh: The Be Soothed Rose Mist is packed with anti-inflammatory properties to calm and hydrate stressed skin.Lock in Moisture: The Calm Balm provides deep hydration, restoring softness and elasticity with rich, organic oils. The Bottom LineWeight loss and metabolic shifts don’t have to mean sacrificing glowing skin. By staying hydrated, eating nutrient-rich foods, and using gentle, replenishing skincare, you can maintain a radiant, youthful complexion—whether you’re experiencing the Ozempic Glow or just looking for healthy skin at any stage of your journey. Your skin should reflect your healthiest, happiest self—and with the right approach, it will.

Learn moreMenopause Awareness Month: Nurturing Your Skin and Mood with Skin & Tonic
October is Menopause Awareness Month, a time to acknowledge and support the millions of women experiencing the natural transition of menopause. Along with its hormonal changes, menopause often brings a range of physical and emotional challenges—particularly in skin health and mood stability. This phase of life can be overwhelming, but with the right care and products, you can regain balance and feel confident. Common Menopause-Related Skin and Mood Challenges During menopause, your body undergoes several shifts, many of which directly impact your skin and emotions. Common skin-related concerns include: Dryness and Dehydration: Lower estrogen levels lead to a reduction in collagen and skin hydration, causing dryness, flakiness, and even irritation.Loss of Elasticity: Skin may become thinner, making it prone to sagging and fine lines.Increased Sensitivity: Menopausal skin often reacts more intensely to environmental stressors, leading to redness or breakouts. Alongside these skin concerns, mood swings, anxiety, and stress can also intensify during this period, making self-care even more important. Skin & Tonic: A Solution for Menopausal Skin and Mood Thankfully, Skin & Tonic offers a range of products designed to nourish your skin while promoting emotional well-being. Let’s explore how their thoughtfully crafted, organic products can support your journey through menopause. 1. Calm BalmThis versatile balm is your go-to for easing both skin and stress.

Learn moreCleansing Balms 101: How They Work and Why They’re a Game-Changer
As the colder months set in, our skin begins to feel the shift. That tight, dry feeling after washing your face? It’s a sign that your usual cleanser might be doing more harm than good. As you age, skin naturally starts to lose moisture. If thats you, it's time to rethink your skincare routine and a cleansing balm might just be the upgrade you need. Cleansing balms are solid-to-oil cleansers designed to dissolve makeup, dirt, and impurities from your skin without stripping away its natural oils. Unlike traditional foam cleansers, which can leave your skin feeling tight and dry, cleansing balms are formulated to maintain the skin’s moisture barrier. The Calm Clean Cleansing Balm is made with a blend of nourishing natural ingredients like jasmine, blue chamomile, and lavender oil. This luxurious balm transforms into a silky oil upon contact with your skin, gently removing grime while keeping your skin soft, soothed, and hydrated. 'As temperatures drop, your skin naturally produces less oil, leading to increased dryness and potential irritation. During this time, switching to a cleansing balm like Calm Clean can make all the difference in maintaining healthy, glowing skin.' What is a cleansing balm? Cleansing balms work by breaking down the oils in makeup and sunscreen. The principle of “like dissolves like” comes into play here—oil-based balms effectively melt away the oils and impurities on your face without disrupting your skin’s natural moisture balance. The Calm Clean Cleansing Balm is particularly effective at removing stubborn, heavy makeup. Whether you’re wearing long-lasting foundation, waterproof mascara, or bold lipstick, this balm tackles it all, leaving your skin fresh and clean. Simply massage the balm onto dry skin, focusing on areas with heavy makeup, and watch it melt away. Add a bit of warm water to emulsify, then wipe off with a muslin cloth or rinse thoroughly. Why Cleansing Balms Are a Game-Changer for Dry Skin If you suffer from dry skin, especially during the colder months, traditional cleansers can exacerbate the problem. Harsh cleansers strip your skin of essential oils, leading to tightness, flakiness, and discomfort. This is where cleansing balms come in as a game-changer. The Calm Clean Cleansing Balm is formulated with nourishing ingredients that not only cleanse but also hydrate and soothe the skin. Chamomile adds an extra layer of comfort with its calming properties, making this balm perfect for those who experience sensitivity or redness during winter. Benefits of Using Cleansing Balms in the Colder Months As temperatures drop, your skin naturally produces less oil, leading to increased dryness and potential irritation. During this time, switching to a cleansing balm like Calm Clean can make all the difference in maintaining healthy, glowing skin. Here’s why you should incorporate a cleansing balm into your winter skincare routine: Gentle yet Effective: Removes dirt, makeup, and impurities without harsh rubbing or stripping your skin of moisture.Hydration Boost: Ingredients like grape seed oil and beeswax deeply hydrate, making it ideal for dry and sensitive skin.Soothing: Chamomile works to calm irritation and redness, making it a soothing choice for winter skincare. Using a cleansing balm might seem a little different from traditional cleansers, but it’s straightforward and easy: Start with Dry Skin: Apply a small amount of the balm onto dry skin. Gently massage in circular motions, focusing on areas with heavy makeup.Emulsify: Add a little warm water to emulsify the balm, turning it into a milk-like consistency.Rinse or Wipe Away: Use a warm, damp muslin cloth to gently wipe away the balm and all the impurities, or simply rinse with water.Follow Up: Finish your routine with a hydrating toner, serum, and moisturiser.
