[TeamBIC]

Happy New Year, BIC! ✨ We’re stepping into 2025 with a crucial reminder: we must take special care of ourselves — this year and EVERY year. Some of us may already have set resolutions and/or stellar routines nailed down; regardless of where you are on your self-care journey, we could all use a few extra nudges and motivation to spend some extra time on ourselves! 🤝

Much like posts from previous years, we’ve come up with a list of weekly prompts to challenge you to strut your self-care skills. 💗 This time around we’ll be focused on all things skincare, because when our skin feels good, we feel GEWD. 🌟 We encourage you to participate and respond to the prompts that inspire you – and don’t be shy to share any other self-care tips and tricks along the way!

Week 1 (1/8 – 1/14): Curating the perfect rise and glow ☀ skincare routine to kick off your day 

Week 2 (1/15 – 1/21): Relaxing in your favorite face/eye mask(s)

Week 3 (1/22 – 1/28): Trying out tools to promote wellness (rollers, high tech tools, DIY massage . . .)

Week 4 (1/29 – 2/4): Adding some extra indulgence to your body care (baths, butters, oils, scrubs etc.) 🛀

Week 5 (2/5 – 2/11): Washing your makeup brushes, towels, pillowcases, etc. — whatever touches your GORG face 😘

Week 4- Body care

 Necessaire is my favorite body care brand. The lotion and serum are my top favorites. The J’adore body oil and Miss Dior scrub smells so good! The FAB scrub is my favorite scrub. I’m not a fan of the scent but it works so well I can overlook it. For bath it’s hard to beat Dr Teals bath salts.

[peculiarzmakeup]

Amazing faves that scrub looks amazing! @faeriegirl 

[CorgiMommy]

Great favorites @faeriegirl .

Week 4 (1/29 – 2/4): Adding some extra indulgence to your body care (baths, butters, oils, scrubs etc.) 

I am enjoying Hanni Good Aura Weightless Body Oil 3.14 oz / 93 ml and Hanni Water Balm Instant Hydration Body Moisturizer Mist 6.76 oz / 200 mL along with my good old standbys -Dr Teal’s epsom salts and bath bombs. The Hanni oil is described as “the anti-oil” and it really is delicious both in scent and feel. Appreciate the glass bottle too. My other favorites are the Molton Brown bath and shower gels ( Eucalyptus and florals are wonderful) and Nécessaire The Body Wash Eucalyptus - Nourishing Treatment Cleanse With Lipid-Rich Oils + Niacinamid... . Can’t beat #L’Occitane Shea Butter anything - Body and hand lotion.

I just posted about how amazing the Hanni Splash Salve In-Shower Body Moisture Treatment 8.8 oz / 250 mL is. I will have to try some more of their products. If you haven’t tried the salve, highly recommend!

[faeriegirl]

The Hanni oil sounds so good @Sunnysmom!

[Sunnysmom]

You gotta try it @faeriegirl ! Love the efficiency of it! 

[peculiarzmakeup]

Love this! I’ve never heard of Hanni but it must be amazing if you use it! I’ll take your reccomendations any day haha  Fabulous picks ❤️ @Sunnysmom 

[Sunnysmom]

@peculiarzmakeup @Cissy63 It’s so soft and lovely! Pretty sure @itsfi put it on my radar and she always gives wonderful recs! 🥰

[Cissy63]

@Sunnysmom  These sound amazing 😊. A scent that you love applying is so special.  I also really enjoy the L’Occitane hand cream with shea butter. 🥰

Week 4 (1/29 – 2/4): Adding some extra indulgence to your body care (baths, butters,oils, scrubs etc.) 🛀

I am currently using a Korres body wash. It is kind and gentle.   Leaves my skin feeling soft.  I have been using a poof for body wash for years.  And I change one every month.  

My skin is so dry and Palmer’s Coco butter skin therapy oil .  I spray it on after I shower then apply a body butter.  Right now it’s B&BW’s Into the Night .   There are little sparkles in it!  
And I am also using their body cream in Vanilla.  

If it’s not a B&BW product then it’s another brand.  And I always have tubes of hand cream around the house!

These look amazing! These challenges are such a great way to highlight what really works! Sounds like they smell fantastic too! @Cissy63 

[CorgiMommy]

@Cissy63 this tine  year it is always good to bring out the hard working favorites 

[CynthieLu]

You know how to do some really good body care.@Cissy63 🦄 I use a poof too, I changed it out pretty regularly as well, such a good habit. 👌

[Sunnysmom]

Palmers Oil is sooo good @Cissy63 ! Love it too! 

[danielledanielle]

I've got some facial oils ( The Ordinary 100% Organic Cold-Pressed Rose Hip Seed Oil 1 oz/ 30 mL I never used that I've been adding toFenty Beauty by Rihanna Lil Butta Dropz Mini Whipped Oil Body Cream Trio  and I love it that I might just get more rose oil, especially with the current multiplier 🤔

[peculiarzmakeup]

These look amazing I’ve always wanted to try the whipped oil body cream it looks very beneficial. What is your experience with the ordinary rose oil like is there a certain way or order you use it in? I bet it smells amazing 🤩 @danielledanielle 

[danielledanielle]

I don't think there's a scent to rose oil, most of the ordinary items aren't fragranced, so whatever scent it has is pretty mild, IMO @peculiarzmakeup .

I don't use oil on my face, but I'll use it in my cuticles or like I've mentioned, layer/mix with body moisturizer.
