Beauty Buzz with Zuz – The December Edition
Cool December snuck up on me. My skin is feeling the chill and I’m way too alert to chill out. You and I know that sooner than you say ‘All I want for Christmas is…’ the party time, full-on holiday buzz and the end-of-year bittersweet reminiscing will trip you up if you’re not ready.
This ‘calm before the storm’ needs to be navigated with perfection, and when the clock strikes midnight on the last day of December, you sashay like a queen into 2022. Naturally.
On this note, I spy with my beauty eye:
Reclaim Your Calm by Roccabox Luxe
Deluxe beauty box subscription, Roccabox Luxe have launched ‘Reclaim Your Calm’ for £15. Containing 5 expert-approved products worth over £140, this soul-nourishing edit of beauty encourages users to slow down and take a moment, with products that will instil a sense of serenity and calm, as well as improving the skin.
As Tia Roqaa, founder and CEO of Roccabox adds: “Press your reset button, and get some rest before the rush of Christmas begins. This is the month when you’ll usually see enough of a lull in your diary to allow you to focus on all the self-care and self-nourishment that you can do from the comfort of your own home – before the shopping lists, busy diary, and nightly post-work Prosecco of December begins. Now is the ideal time to press pause, prep your skin, pamper your body, and update your makeup-bag, ready for the month of partying ahead.”
