Make shower time the best it can be with these tips and product recos from Summerie.
We all love a well-utilised downtime – that goes without saying! But sometimes, after going through a long and stressful day, putting on Netflix and snuggling undercovers feels like a no-brainer. Not that it’s a bad thing. But we’ve got other ideas on how you can better rest and unwind after a busy day, and it involves aromatic and natural ingredients that are nourishing and beneficial for the body.
The importance of picking natural in your beauty products
Choosing the right ingredients will promote the natural beauty and integrity of your skin. You’ve probably heard that the skin is the largest organ in your body and acts as your shield to the outside world before. This is why you need to carefully consider what you put on it as a lot of beauty products may contain harmful chemicals that could bring on negative conditions such as dermatitis, hormone imbalances and even weaken the immune system.
Feeding your skin with natural ingredients is important if you are serious about maintaining its health. Naturally-sourced ingredients have healing and nourishing properties that are kinder to the skin, making them exceptionally great especially for those who are sensitive-prone. Bringing you all the goodness of nature, Summerie’s body wash and shampoos contain Organic Sunflower Seed Oil that’s rich in antioxidants, vitamins A, B, C and E, and minerals like iron, potassium and calcium. All of its items contain over 94% naturally-derived ingredients and are free from SLS and SLES, parabens, mineral oil, silicone, synthetic colourants, monoethanolamine (MEA), diethanolamine (DEA), and triethanolamine (TEA), or animal-derived ingredients.

Read on for how you can pamper your body with the benefits of these nature-inspired scents from Summerie!
Grapefruit
This citrus fruit has an energising and uplifting aroma and is rich in antioxidants, making it great for protecting the skin against free radicals. We suggest making the most out of your shower routine by exfoliating your body beforehand with bath gloves, twice a week, to remove excess oil and dirt. Then follow up with the Grapefruit Purifying Body Wash so that the benefits of grapefruit can better penetrate into the skin.
Chamomile
This delicate herb has many uses, from soothing an upset stomach to relieving skin conditions such as rashes and eczema, and promoting better sleep. Set the scene for your next pampering day, as a zen atmosphere helps you to fully unwind. Play your favourite music, put out some fresh flowers and put your skin at ease with the Chamomile Purifying Body Wash.
Ginger
Strong, spicy and warm, ginger’s aroma can instantly perk you up! When used topically, this herb has soothing and bacteria-eliminating benefits. After a long, relaxing shower with the Ginger Refreshing Body Wash, follow up with a body massage using lotion generously to seal all that goodness in. This will definitely make a lot of difference to the skin in terms of how it looks and feels.
Passion fruit
Also known as maracuja, passion fruit is used as a nourishing moisturiser in skincare because of the nutrients as well as fatty acids and antioxidants contained in the oil. It’s particularly great for for those with mature or dry skin. Lather up with body oil after showering with the Passion Fruit Refreshing Body Wash so your skin will feel ridiculously soft when you’re done!
