We all know that February 14th is Valentine's Day but in addition to celebrating the love between two people, let's celebrate SELF LOVE, the most genuine and enduring love of all.
Be kind and gentle with yourself, embrace your imperfections, don't play the compare game, own your story and love yourself through the process. Feeling the love within you and being that love will present a whole world of wonderful possibilities.
Self care is self love. Practicing self care is about loving all aspects of yourself, putting yourself first and not settling for less than you deserve because you understand and respect your own needs.
Practicing self care and self-love means extending the same respect and care you have for others to yourself. Self care is a daily practice. Work self care into your day by creating loving beauty ritual to increase your self-kindness and self-love.
Here are some of our favourite products for creating these rituals:
