January Beauty Detox

With the festive season finally over 'The Detox' is the main thing on everybodys' mind, that & their credit card statement..!
We're going to dedicate the next few weeks to some of the best detox treatments as well as some magical products to take away any tell tale signs of over indulgence during the festive period!!

First up is fresh seaweed...not the most glamorous I know but it truly works wonders in detoxing your skin, perfect for getting back on track with your beauty regime this Jan!


In short seaweed is rich in many vitamins including B Vits -B1, B2, B6, B12 as well as containing many detoxifying minerals, it encourages absorption of minerals into the skin tissue eliminating any toxins. Extracts from seaweed are used in many top spa treatments & is not only good for a healthy glow on your skin but it can also help to break down cellulite deposits on the body.
There are few ways you can treat yourself to this, you could go down the natural organic route & order fresh seaweed directly from the North of Scotland - www.justseaweed.com is a small business on the ISLE OF BUTE & from just £15 you will receive a bag of freshly cut seaweed to make your own face or body mask, just add warm water & place the seaweed on your skin....

Not keen on using fresh seaweed itself...then there's another great way to get all the detoxifying effects. Space NK Spa do a fantastic Seaweed extract bath range, try their bath crystals for a toning & revitalising experience, £18.
