2023 Self-Care Check-In Challenge: Last Week! - Healthy scalp and hair tips

2023 Self-Care Check-In Challenge2023 Self-Care Check-In Challenge

Ready or not, 2023 is here, and the Beauty Insider Community is kicking the year off the best way we know how: with our annual Self-Care Check-In Challenge! Whether or not you’re a resolution-maker, there’s something kind of satisfying about the idea of a “fresh start” 🧼 and while we’re big supporters of maintaining boundaries and practicing self-care all year round, it doesn’t hurt to have a little extra motivation to set healthy (and/or relaxing) habits.

 

Think of this thread as the place to check in with your fellow Community members and share how you’re practicing different types of self-care – they can be inspired by our weekly inspo prompts, or based on your own unique self-care needs or beauty intentions. If one theme doesn’t speak to you – by all means, skip it! You can still stop by to cheer on your fellow Community members! 🤗

 

  • Week 1 (1/4-1/10): Perfecting your nighttime skincare routine
  • Week 2 (1/11-1/17): Adding some movement to your day (and post-exercise relaxation!)
  • Week 3 (1/18-1/24): Spending extra time on body care (dry brushing, exfoliating treatments, bath time?)
  • Week 4 (1/25-1/31): Organizing your beauty collection (it can be therapeutic!) 
  • Week 5 (2/1-2/7): Relaxing with home scents and candles
  • Week 6 (2/8-2/14): Experimenting with a new-to-you wellness trend (supplements, rollers, CBD…) 
  • Week 7 (2/15-2/21): Getting a good night’s sleep
  • Week 8 (2/22-2/28): Trying a healthy scalp and haircare routine ◀

@TeamBIC I love this kick off to 2023! 

Week 1 (1/4-1/10): Perfecting your nighttime skincare routine 

 

I’ve been keeping it pretty simple but I’d like to ensure I’m doing everything I can to care for my skin as I age.
Currently I cleanse with a really basic life brand cleanser, use my Tower 28 Beauty SOS Daily Rescue Facial Spray with Hypochlorous Acid 4 oz/ 120 mL followed by the cerave moisturizing cream. About once a week I use the Kate Somerville Liquid ExfoliKate® Triple Acid Resurfacing Treatment 4 oz/ 120 mL. I also have The Ordinary 100% Plant-Derived Hemi-Squalane 1 oz/ 30 mL on the way to use with the intentioned of softening my skin. 

 

I really want to kick it up a notch in 2023 by remembering to use my Refa roller in my PM routine, I already ice it for my morning routine so I know my skin will approve of the extra massage time, especially with my new oil. 

I also have the Tower 28 Beauty SOS Intensive Redness Relief Serum with Hypochlorous Acid 2 oz / 59 mL on my list of skin care to try, it looks like a nice tray for my sensitive skin. 

I need to repurchase the Youth To The People Superfood Gentle Antioxidant Refillable Cleanser or find something else I like, I’m not picky but I don’t want a cleaner that leaves my skin feeling tight. 

 

Re: 2023 Self-Care Check-In Challenge: Let’s set some beauty intentions!

@bakeamuffin  Oooo I’ve been wanting to try the Tower 28 Beauty SOS Intensive Redness Relief Serum with Hypochlorous Acid 2 oz / 59 mL  but I wasn’t sure if it was as good or just hype. But if you love it I definitely need to try it out!

Re: 2023 Self-Care Check-In Challenge: Let’s set some beauty intentions!

I just started using Tower 28 Beauty SOS Intensive Redness Relief Serum with Hypochlorous Acid 2 oz / 59 mL. It’s been helpful with redness and calming irritated skin. I tried Tower 28 Beauty SOS Daily Rescue Facial Spray with Hypochlorous Acid 4 oz/ 120 mL but I didn’t notice it doing much for my skin. I may need to give it more time. 

Re: 2023 Self-Care Check-In Challenge: Let’s set some beauty intentions!

Lovely routine @bakeamuffin simple is sometimes best. ‌👌‌ have you heard of #The INKEY List Ceramide Hydrating Night Treatment 1 oz/ 30 mL 

 

I find my sensitive skin loves ceramides extra in the winter time ‌😉‌ if your looking for something to soften, and hydrate extra this season ‌❄️‌ 

Re: 2023 Self-Care Check-In Challenge: Let’s set some beauty intentions!

Okay @CynthieLu you have my attention, this sounds like an amazing product! I’m adding it to my wish list to try out, thank you!! 

Re: 2023 Self-Care Check-In Challenge: Let’s set some beauty intentions!

I have been enjoying it @bakeamuffin for my sensitive dry excema prone skin 😅

You can use it in place of your moisturizer or apply it, wait half an hour(to avoid product pilling) and than apply moisturizer. So it's wierd to find out what works with it, but my skin loves ceramides in the winter time and this is soo affordable compared to some of the other options 😉

Re: 2023 Self-Care Check-In Challenge: Let’s set some beauty intentions!

@bakeamuffin Great routine! How is the #Tower 28 Beauty SOS Daily Rescue Facial Spray 4 oz/ 120 mL ? I have it and have not tried it yet.

Re: 2023 Self-Care Check-In Challenge: Let’s set some beauty intentions!

Tower 28 Beauty SOS Daily Rescue Facial Spray with Hypochlorous Acid 4 oz/ 120 mL  @Mellmars1185 is a really soothing product to help the skin barriers overall health, fight acne, eczema, psoriasis and general red, inflamed skin. The main ingredient in it, hypochlorous acid, is an anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory and antipruritic. I trust it for so many of my own skin problems but also trust it for my own three kiddos. I love having this in my arsenal! 

Re: 2023 Self-Care Check-In Challenge: Let’s set some beauty intentions!

I adore your routine @SportyGirly125, I hope to get back to something along these lines over 2023. Your

NuFACE Trinity Facial Toning Device Original looks so interesting! I have a Refa roller which also uses microcurrents, but they’re so different! I know what to ask for my 30th birthday now 😏 

Re: 2023 Self-Care Check-In Challenge: Let’s set some beauty intentions!

@bakeamuffin @It really works but you have to be consistent.

@CynthieLu Thank you!  I also have been loving sheet masks and the Leahlani mask trio that eshoe bought me.  I'm turning 40 so I want to look as youthful as possible.

Re: 2023 Self-Care Check-In Challenge: Let’s set some beauty intentions!

@SportyGirly125 I was just telling my friend today that I need to make using my NuFACE Mini Facial Toning Device one of my resolutions because I'm so bad at sticking to it!

Re: 2023 Self-Care Check-In Challenge: Let’s set some beauty intentions!

@AlexBT Me too!  I'm good for weeks and then I'll stop and then pick it up again.
