Make the best of skincare resolutions with favourite sustainable brand picks
WHILE so many of those New Year resolutions made with heartfelt intention as we saw the old year out have come and gone the one among the many has been to take the time to commit to a more sustainable lifestyle.
We have promised ourselves to do away with well-worn (and well loved!) tracksuit bottoms and hoodies in exchange for natural fibre clothing in casual chic styles. And we have made a commitment to taking better care of ourselves from diet to exercise and skincare.
Homemade avocado masks and chickpea scrubs will still have their place, best served on a lazy winter afternoon. Meanwhile the Beauty Team at Pynck.com have uncovered some of last year’s favourite sustainable skin and beauty products, the game-changing brands that we couldn’t wait to share with you.
