Have Beauty Trends changed because of Lockdowns?
Lockdowns in different countries during recent times have meant many changes in people's lives - and some of those changes have been about how we now look at skincare, make-up and even beauty routines.
Skin care
For example, with skin care, many of us have become more knowledgeable and questioning about which products we apply to our skin and what ingredients they contain. Apparently, internet searches for specific ingredients have risen considerably meaning consumers are becoming more aware of what they put on their skin.
One of the few positives of lockdown life has been that we’ve had more time to spend on ourselves. Make-up has become less important while actual skin care has become more important with cleansing of the face night and day seen as a ritual to mark the beginning and ending of yet another strange day. And then of course adding in Simply Face Oil to moisturize and rejuvenate, Simply Neck Oil to lift, tone and tighten the neck area and décolletage and Simply Skin Vitamin Oil as a one of a kind nutritional blend of oils to feed the delicate skin on your face.
A more natural look
There is also a movement towards a more natural look. Many are tired of all the images in social and mainstream media that lack authenticity. Unfiltered and real skin looks are set to be the next trend with a move away from retouching, airbrushing or photoshopping images.
Fine lines and blemishes
Changing to a more natural look means showing off skin as it really is – with all its pores, blemishes and fine lines – while embracing it and letting it shine. But while honesty is one thing, looking after those blemishes and fine lines can still be achieved. Our H-Glow Formula helps to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, naturally.
Hair care
The same emphasis has been placed on hair care with many moving beyond the basic shampoo and conditioner routine. Increasingly, many have been looking at how they can improve the health of their hair. Our Simply Hair Oil fits the bill perfectly, making the hair softer, silkier and shinier as well as taming any frizz.
Our wellbeing
As a final note, we are now seeking out products that come with a side effect of wellbeing. Of course when essential oils are such an important ingredient in all our Simply Skin Care range, wellbeing is there for the taking helping to relax and soothe while doing its work.
