Stress-Relieving Ways to Indulge Post-Holiday

Now that the holidays are over, you’re probably looking forward to some well-deserved rest. You’ve made it past the season of giving, so now it’s time to look at how you can treat yourself and relieve all that stress. Check out these simple and easy ways to treat yourself, from items you can find at the grocery store to the revolutionary NeriumAD!

·         Slather on some coconut oil

Coconut oil is the baking aisle’s hidden gem. Natural, unrefined coconut oil is great for more than just cooking—you can also use this moisturizing oil as an all-over body lotion. It has the light and creamy texture of body butter without the beauty aisle price, and you don’t have to worry about fragrance or other additives that could irritate your skin. Instead, if you want something more, you can customize your coconut oil by mixing in ingredients that you know work with your skin, like a little of your favorite perfume, essential oils, shimmer, bronzer, or however you want to pamper yourself.  As always with these mixtures, you will want to try them out on a patch of skin first to make sure your skin reacts normally, and you may want to skip coconut oil on your face as it can sometimes cause blemishes. 

·         Relax with a homemade honey facial 

This homemade facial may have all you need just in your kitchen cabinet. Using honey as a do-it-yourself homemade facial for 10-30 minutes can help moisturize your skin after all that holiday stress. This is especially great for those dry winter months. Natural, raw honey is more effective, and you don’t have to worry about preservatives that aren’t meant for your skin. You can also add your own customizations to a honey mask. Adding ½ teaspoon cinnamon can help treat blemishes. For extra moisture, you can add avocado or whole milk yogurt. Or if you have sensitive skin, you can try mixing in a little aloe vera gel. 

·         Improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles with NeriumAD

Depending on your holiday duties, you’re probably worn out from entertaining, wrapping, baking, cooking, decorating, driving, or whatever this year’s holiday season called for. If you’re like me, with stress comes wrinkles. However, many methods for treating wrinkles come with even more stress. I want to relax, not try to fit in an appointment for uncomfortable procedures. And after all that shopping, I don’t want to look all over town for a wrinkle cream that works, either. 

Instead, I indulge year-round with NeriumAD, the only product of its kind to contain Nerium oleander extract. I apply NeriumAD each night before I go to bed and wake up feeling rejuvenated. After noticing the reduced look of my fine lines and wrinkles, I love when my friends ask what it is that I “do” only to tell them how simple my solution was. Speaking of holidays, every year making the social and family rounds, I can expect at least one topic of conversation to be how I look like I haven’t aged a day since the last family reunion. Without any bothersome regimens or appointments to keep, I can spend more time relaxing year round!
