After a hectic day and a long journey home from work, try going under a hot shower (not too hot though, just enough not to hurt your face).Use your favourite shower gels and shampoos to help you enjoy your experience. Finish off by switching to cold water to invigorate your senses.

Here are some natural ingredients commonly used in bathing cosmetics that you may be interested in trying out.
• Shea butter has healing and softening abilities. It protects skin from emvironmental damage and keeps the skin moisturized. A similar ingredient is cocoa butter.
• Epsom salts help to improve sore muscles and drain away toxins from the body. It usually comes in the form of bathing salt, foot soaks and appears in some soaps.
• Oatmeal can be used as a body/facial scrub. It reduces skin-related problems such as itchiness, redness and scaling.
• Glycerin soap is especially good for people who have sensitive skin. Glycerin is neutral and doesn’t dry out the skin.
• Lavender is an aphrodisiac. It is also a natural stress reliever and widely used in aromatherapy. It helps to relax the mind and body.
