Raw Skincare Lip Balm // Hint Of Mint

Most women I know will own a number of lip balms that occupy space at home, work and handbags- and why wouldn't you? 

With the cold months of winter still waging a war against our skin, your lips are just as vulnerable. We have developed a 100% Natural lip balm that will not only soothe sore dry lips but also help protect you from the harshness of winter. Our Hint of Mint lip balm with gorgeous cocoa butter & coconut oil will moisturise your lips as well as provide you with a protective barrier that will prevent any further damage from the environment.

Our lip balms do not contain any petroleum Jelly which purely coats your lips and does not provide any moisture that your lips need. They are also completely safe to eat- by putting anything on your lips there is a high chance of ingestion. This does not mean to say we recommend them as a healthy snack but they certainly won't do you any harm if you do happen to lick your lips occasionally!

Our Hint of Mint will not only cool and soothe your lips but will also tingle when you put it on, this is thanks to the gorgeous natural peppermint oil we have added.

Raw Skincare- Natural skincare that won't cost you the earth! 

Exfoliation

Hi Guys,

So we have been super busy at Raw Towers over the past few months and have seriously neglected our poor little blog so we do apologise! However, onwards and upwards as they say (Not sure who they are but hey). 

So we will now be posting a new blog every Tuesday and Thursday on all things skincare related. So if you have any thing you would like us to cover please don't hesitate to get in touch! 

Today's subject is Exfoliation! 

So what is exfoliation and what is its purpose? 

Exfoliation is the removal of the oldest dead skin cells on the top layer of your skin (sounds gross right?) By exfoliating you are aiding the unblocking of pores, keeping your skin healthy and clean & helps to prevent acne break out.

What do I use to exfoliate?

There are lots of different ways you can exfoliate, it is about finding a way that works for you. Below are some of the different tools you can buy that can be used for exfoliating.

Brush

 Loofah Sponge 

                    Sugar Scrub                        

These are all really easy to use exfoliators. Every person's skin reacts differently so find one that best suits you, doesn't dry your skin out too much, and leaves your skin looking healthy and glowing, not red and sore.

How often should I exfoliate?

Exfoliating is not a daily thing! It is something you should do once to twice a week, again this depends on your skin type!

So I hope all these tips on exfoliating have helped! If you have any other questions please feel free to leave a comment and we will get back to you as soon as we can!

My Dark Little Secret

The title of this post may have enticed you and so it should. My dark secret could soon be yours too!

So I guess I should tell you what my dark little secret is huh? Dark Chocolate! YUM!! Not only is dark chocolate actually good for you but if you have a massive sweet tooth like myself this will be a brilliant little secret for you. 

Dark chocolate contains a compounds called flavonoid, these are plant-based compounds with powerful antioxidant properties, which means they help reduce inflammation, promote healthy arteries and help fight aging by preventing and repairing cellular damage, all of which is fantastic for your skin and over all health! 

So what chocolate should you choose? If you are going to eat dark chocolate for its amazing health benefits make sure you are eating one that contains 70% cocoa content or higher as this will have the most beneficial properties. Avoid white or milk chocolate as this will contain a greater amount of sugar, milk, fat and butter along with other ingredients that are added to chocolate to give it, its distinctive flavour. 

Remember to eat your chocolate in combination with a healthy balanced diet and enjoy!
