    If you are not already using both oils, now is the time to indulge your skin in this powerful combination.

    Purchase both 15ml Midnight Oil + 15ml Forever Young Oil

    For £51 (a saving of £41)

     

    Using the same Soveral facial oil morning and night is a great way to add essential nutrients and vitamins to the skin, but why not make your skin work that little bit harder! For further skin regeneration, add a new set of antioxidants and stimulants to the mix. Over time your skin gets used to the continued use of the same oil and this is why Alexandra Soveral designed two face oils when launching her range.

    Forever Young Oil is designed to offer the skin protection and strength throughout the day, while Midnight Oil is designed to aid the skin’s detoxification process and regenerate during the night.

  3. Full Steam Ahead

    Posted on

    Recently Lia, specialist facialist here at Soveral, had been asked whether steam rooms are good for the skin. Here is Lia's take on steaming and steam rooms:  

    Steaming can be excellent for your skin as it is a wonderful way for both your sweat glands (water) and sebaceous glands (oil) to clean themselves and eliminate toxins.

    As we all live such hectic lives and a visit to a steam room may not be an option, a simple face stream would suffice. But how often? Twice a week is a happy medium, but here a little tweak. 

     To protect the capillaries from too much heat exposure you could apply a thin layer of Angel Balm to the skin before you go in. You will still be able to sweat through the product as it does not contain emulsifiers.

    The product will both protect your capillaries and also have the added benefit of being deeply absorbed into your open pores, allowing maximum nutrition to penetrate.

     

    A final cleanse with a damp flannel will remove all the dirt stuck deep in your pores and leave you super clean too!

     

    A bit of history

     

    Historically, steaming baths were at the heart of community. 

    The earliest steam rooms date back to Indus Valley Civilization and the prophet Muhammed is said to have recommended them as early as 600AD.

    In Greece they were a place where young athletes would meet to regenerate their muscles, socialise and leave behind the stresses of the day. 

    This became almost ritualistic often followed by a cold plunge, and aromatherapy rubs. 

    The Roman Empire later adopted steam baths, building luxurious buildings where people could meet to enjoy a taste of the Empire for a small fee.
