The Resolutions: Skin Deep

January 5, 2018

When it comes to New Year’s resolutions, your beauty routine might not be top of mind, but it should be. We asked Jessica Richards, owner and founder of Brooklyn-based Shen Beauty (the destination for unique, indie and all-around chic beauty products), to share her must-haves for starting the year off right. “For me New Year’s means self-care and the older I become, the more relevant this becomes,” says Richards. From detoxifying bath salts to her favorite probiotics, here are Jessica’s essentials.

Therapie by Roques O’Neil Himalayan Detox Bath Salts are the key to self-care. These salts help to counter electromagnetic energy that I absorb from computers, WIFI and cell usage and helps with my muscles after working out.

The Sturm Face Mask is my ultimate travel companion and part of my New Year’s resolution of masking more. I have a particular love affair for this one because you don’t rinse it off. You “roll” it off which allows your skin to stay hydrated and absorb all the ingredients.It is good for all skin types and makes your skin so soft.

The Lord Jones Pure CBD Pain Wellness Formula Body Lotionis something that I will not be leaving home without.Whether it’s inmy handbag during the day, suitcase for travel or my overnight bag, thisproduct is the one thing that has helped me with my hip pain fromworking out and sitting on airplanes.

Remembering to take The Nue Co. PREBIOTIC + PROBIOTIC Supplementstwice a day are another one of are my resolutions. They not only helpwith my stomach issues caused by stress, but also help to keep my skinclear and my gut in order. They are derived from soil and arevegetarian. I seriously can’t be more excited about the results oftaking these.
