Say it With Aromatherapy This Mother’s Day

It’s probably a universal fact that Mom doesn’t rest. No matter how much you tell her to relax she rarely takes the time for herself – always thinking about everyone else.

This Mother’s Day, one of the best things you could gift Mom with is time, time for a little R&R that is. And how are you going to do that? With aromatherapy!

Aromatherapy is the use of aromatic plant extracts and essential oils to promote physical and psychological wellbeing. AHAVA, which harnesses the natural magnificence of the legendary Dead Sea (once Cleopatra’s own private spa by the way), is a gateway to aromatherapy.

The Dead Sea twinkles like it has secrets, and AHAVA has unlocked them (mineral-rich waters, salt crystals, mud deposits and hearty plants) and gone on to create the proprietary ‘Osmoter™ technology’ – a balanced concentrate of minerals that restores skin’s vitality and enhances its natural ability to retain moisture.

We particularly love AHAVA’s lavender Bath Salts, which are 100% natural and packed with healthy minerals to relax muscles and joint as well as promote soft, supple skin.

When it comes to aromatherapy, DeclĂ©or’s founder Solange is practically the first lady of it. Turn to this brand for an assortment of masterfully blended essential oils that will enable Mom to be in harmony with herself and the environment. Make sure Mom tries the Aromessence White Brightening Serum at least, a beautiful mix of 100% pure, natural essential oils that have been specifically formulated for the daily care of skin that lacks radiance.

And if you’re looking for little antioxidant powerhouses, also rich in proteins and vitamins, then turn to Elemental Herbology and transform Mom’s everyday care into serious aromatherapy treatments. This holistic range of natural skin care takes inspiration from the Five Element Theory that props up Traditional Chinese Medicine – this mantra is based on the principles of life’s layers working in harmony in order to achieve the perfect equilibrium.

Take the Harmonising Cleanse Facial Cleansing Oil for example, which is infused with 100% plant oils and gently melts away all traces of makeup and impurities – cleansing has never been more enjoyable!
