Krystal Caracol

Me-Time Resolution ft. philosophy renewed hope in a jar + GIVEAWAY!




One of my personal resolutions for the new year is to make the time for more Me-Time. As a stay at home mother of two children under 5, blogging full time, constantly doing domestic chores and errands, it is all too easy to forget about Krystal. So, with the new year, I have decided to plan at least one day a month to spend time with myself - go to a movie alone, eat dinner at a restaurant with a good book, plan a spa day with a friend... I've also decided that a little Me-Time can be as simple as a relaxing morning or night skincare routine. New year, new me!

Me-Time Must Haves - calming music; I love classical piano and violin
- gentle facial cleanser and exfoliant
- mask combo with a pore clearing mask and a moisturizing mask
- hydrating serum and eye cream
- *my favorite part* gentle and soothing facial massage with philosophy renewed hope in a jar
  • small circular motions across the forehead and along the jaw line
  • upward and outward motions over the cheeks
  • a good few seconds of fingertip tapping all over the face
- massaging in body butter and foot cream
- hot herbal tea and my blog subscription feed

The philosophy renewed hope in a jar ($47, 2 oz) is a lightweight moisturizer so it's perfect to use morning and night, even as a good base before applying makeup. It truly keeps my dry skin hydrated all day, but doesn't add shine to my oily t-zone, and it is gentle on my sensitive skin. The scent is comforting and soft, perfect for Me-Time to breathe easy and let go of stresses in the new year. The moisturizer also gives a supple appearance to my skin, which is always a miracle when you are running on little sleep and feeling low on energy. Looking refreshed and renewed always makes me feel good.
