We preach about self-love but we neglect our body the most. We're always hustling, juggling between phone calls, work, and social media. The screen time increases and the sleep time decreases. And while your body may not show repercussions of exhaustion today, it surely will react in the coming future. But hey, there's still time and you can still pamper your skin, mane and body right, from the comfort of your home. Here's a little guide on the kind of products you must include during your bath and self-care time.

For The Body
Wake Up With Fragrant Body Washes

As simple as it may seem, taking a shower helps not only cleanse your body but also relaxes your mind. It acts as a stress reliever and helps in relieving body pain. Use a refreshing aloe vera shower gel and body wash from Luxuriate. Make sure to alternate between lukewarm to cold water as it doesn’t open up your pores up too much and yet cleans your skin.
