Bloom through winter with MUD and me

Nature has the most beautiful way of showing us that seasons can change the appearance of our natural surroundings, however winter weather is not so much fun for the skin. Cold weather and low humidity levels result in dry air which ultimately steals moisture from the skin. Flawless skin is a huge contributing factor when it comes to the end result of your makeup application as a whole. You can’t help how your skin reacts to climate changes but girl, you definitely have more control than you think.  1. How to retain your natural moisture to ensure that gorgeous supple glow. Wash your face with lukewarm water; remember any form of heat robs the skin from moisture. A good over night moisturizer is key when it comes to maintaining that beautiful radiant look and remember to drink enough water during the day, our skin needs hydration from the inside too.  2. Exfoliation must be a crucial part in your skincare routine during winter.   My favourite homemade mask consists of the following ing

My 12 beautiful steps to self love

Just kidding, but not knowing how incredibly good yoga works for my body feels like I’ve wasted so much time on exercises that never really resonated with me. I've fallen in love with the calm but energetic endorphins that infiltrates my mind after I’ve given my body so much well deserved love. With a balanced posture and a sound mind, one can easily get addicted to grounded euphoria, one of the most soothing feelings I’ve ever experienced during exercise. Obstacles are the cost of greatness, especially when it comes to pushing limits and seeing what your body allows you to do. I’ve always believed in this huge misconception that one needs to be extremely flexible for yoga to be enjoyable and even doable, but I’ve learned that it’s the furthest thing from the truth. Yoga is for every girl that wants to
