Respect Mother Nature. Respect Your Skin.

FEATURE IMAGE of WOMAN OUTSIDE DOING YOGA

 

From spring training and summer volleyball to fall hikes and winter skiing, our lives are often filled with more time spent outdoors than we realize. Feeling the sun on our skin or the winds blowing bitterly cold, experiencing thunderstorms or unexpected snow squalls, there’s no doubt that staying fit and active in the great outdoors means dealing with the changing faces of mother nature.

Don’t let Mother Nature take a toll on your skin. We have rounded up some products to help keep her harsh but glorious ways from outsmarting us. Here you will find a body balm, a multi-pivot head razor, makeup removing cleansing wipes, CBD facial masks, and more.

nyl body balm

nyl Body Balm soothes cracked, dry and irritated skin from sunburn or winter rashes and an array of skin issues. This organic balm seals in moisture with the healing power of tamanu oil, kokum butter and calendula extract. Use it anywhere your skin needs extra moisture and soothing. Try using it as a facial moisturizer, a lip balm, barrier balm or cuticle conditioner. It can even be used to tame flyaway hairs but remember a little goes a long way.

Aveline Razor

Shaving correctly during the more extreme seasons of summer and winter can prevent skin irritation, razor burn and ingrown hairs. The Aveline Razor with its multi-pivot head and gliding rollerballs provides optimal shaving control even in the most sensitive areas. Each cartridge contains six blades and a moisture strip with vitamin E, aloe, and lavender oil.

 

Mantra Mask

 

Whether the sun is shining outside or the heat is on inside, whenever your skin needs saving, try a Mantra Mask CBD Facial Mask.  Mantra Mask is available in five skin-nourishing beauty masks, all enriched with multi-tasking CBD oil. Try the CBD Collagen Mask, CBD Repair Mask, CBD After Sun Mask, CBD Blemish Mask, CBD Anti-Aging Mask or the CBD Charcoal Cleanser.

 

Higher education CHEAT SHEET Make Up Cleansing Wipes

When our heart rate increases and our blood flow speeds up, feeling the beads of sweat rolling down our faces is pretty much inevitable. When we perspire, we tend to wipe our skin, and rub in our makeup, dirt, grime, and oils. Whether trail running or mountaineering, before the sweat session gets serious, use Higher Education CHEAT SHEET Makeup Remover Cleansing Wipes. The pre-soaked cleansing clothes remove even waterproof makeup.
