Detox your body from top to toe

Happy New Year beauties! I love this time of year, it’s the perfect excuse to really get stuck into all of the things you said you’d do and haven’t gotten around to! It’s also a great time to undertake a complete body and health detox and set yourself up for the year ahead with a positive start. Here at bh we’re all about a helping hand, so below is our top to toe guide for overhauling your body ready to take on 2016!

Skin

With an endless supply of summer sun and Christmas indulgences (sugary treats galore), your skin is probably after a little extra love. If you’re not already using these products, now’s the perfect time to start. Think deep cleansers for an intense clean of your pores, as well as nourishing masks and moisturising body washes to get your skin looking fresh and glowing.

We love:

1) Neutrogena Deep Clean Cream Cleanser
2) Dermalogica Skin Renewal Booster
3) KORA Organics Hydrating Mask
4) Mary Kay TimeWise Day Solution Sunscreen SPF30
5) Aveeno Daily Moisturising Body Wash
6) L’Occitane Aromachologie Revitalizing Body Scrub

Hair

Salt water, humidity, chlorine and sunshine – none of these holiday elements are kind on your locks. To refresh and repair your hair for the New Year, you’ll need to nourish it with loads of moisture! Lucky for you, there are loads of awesome products to help save your strands.

These are just a few of our faves:

7) TONI&GUY Hair Care Reconstruction Mask
8) Moroccanoil Clarifying Shampoo
9) L’Oréal Professionnel Absolut Repair Lipidium Double Serum
10) Deep Muk – Ultra Soft Leave-In Conditioner

Hands and feet

I like to get a manicure and pedicure every few weeks, whether it’s an at-home DIY mani or treating myself to a spa visit. I just love having well-groomed hands and feet – it makes me feel totally put together! If you’re one to neglect these areas, now’s the perfect time to get into a routine.

Here are some DIY tools to get you started!

11) Sally Hansen 18K Gold Cuticle Eraser
12) COLOUR by TBN Nail File
13) Kiss Brush-On Gel Kit
14) Scholl Velvet Smooth Express Pedi Electronic Foot File
15) Milky Foot Active

Inner health

How you feel on the inside is absolutely reflected in how you look on the outside, which is why it’s super important to make sure you’re getting all the vitamins and nutrients your body needs. Busy work schedules and a hectic social life can often mean it’s hard to stay on top of nutrition (and let’s face it, sometimes it’s easier to skip breakfast at work and we’re not going to say no to a glass of vino when we’re out with friends). From daily supplements to monthly detoxes, there are plenty of options to stay on top of your inner health.

We recommend:

16) Blackmores Odourless Fish Oil Mini Caps
17) Swisse Leafy Greens Superfood Powder
18) Weleda Organic Birch Juice

Make-up

The New Year is the perfect time for a bit of beauty maintenance – clean your brushes, throw out expired products and of course, replenish your beauty supplies with the essentials like primer (as if we needed an excuse for a beauty shop!). Why not grab yourself a new eyeshadow palette and a bright, statement lippy to rock throughout the year? Go on, you deserve it.
