We learned about May's philosophy of indulgent yet adaptable self-care at a hands-on beauty event we held with her at Detox Market last spring. Check out this video and watch (or re-watch!) This utopian professional esthetician's full micro-panel; learn about the role beauty rituals have played in building her cult-favorite brand (and building an insanely perfect complexion).
good stuff for beauty a deep, sustainable sense of well-being is rooted in a daily beauty ritual. Don't have time for a nightly at-home spa treatment? No worries; according to May, the business of completing beauty rituals has less to do with what we use and more to do with how we use it.
Whether it's a comfortable five minutes before bed or five minutes you accumulate throughout the month, meaningful beauty rituals start with a simple goal: infuse every moment with intention, learn about your products, and share what you love with the people you love. See below for the best tips for starting and maintaining a beauty ritual in May ...... The first step is not a throwaway. Most people want to do the first step of their beauty ritual quickly - remove their makeup, wash their face, and get to the "fun" part quickly. Instead of starting out with the cheapest product, make each step a beautiful part of your process.
Breathe as you use it. Just like taking a whiff of your favorite food before you dive in, taking a moment to enjoy the scent of the product is part of the experience. Before applying anything to your face, take a deep breath. It's a grounding practice that brings you into the moment.
Massage the product. As you apply products, take a moment to massage them in. This helps increase blood circulation and promotes lymphatic drainage. (It also feels great and makes you want to sit back and enjoy your beauty ritual). This only takes an extra five seconds.
