Beautiful Fabric

Today I was so lucky to have a facial & chat with Margaret Hema. Her little room in the Harbour City Towers in Wellington is quaint and such a reflection of her, a warm and caring lady with a love of the old world and its charm. She offered some amazing advice regarding skin care & her most important which everybody should remember is skin should be treated like beautiful fabric. Would we use Jif or Janola on our faces? Essentially so many of us scrub, rub and aggravate our skin with products that contain the same kinds of chemicals to try and make it glow, and this was something as somewhat of a (former) product fantatic I have been doing for a long time. If you are on the quest for glowing skin, give it a break from scrubs, masques and foam, and look to ancient methods for success. Oil is one of the most ancient facial cleansers, and the perfect way to start! An excellent source for some more info if you're interested about this is www.theoilcleansingmethod.com :)
