Mojoless Monday?
I know the feeling. I am pretty sure the fact that we are well and truly in the thick of the “Silly Season” isn’t helping much either. With Christmas parties, finishing up (or starting) the last minute shopping, all the stresses of the Season, and tying up the loose ends at work, who could blame us for feeling trés mojoless at the moment? Talk about a daunting time of the year. No wonder we all seem so “over it” before we start. Think of this Get Even More Gorgeous With Beauty Marked! blog post as a not so subtle reminder to Go The Red, Orange, Coral, or Pink Lipstick and be done with it. Seriously. The bright lip works wonders absolutely every time we need a boost. Promise. When wearing a bright lip, your makeup Mojo will come racing back so quickly, you might start to doubt if you ever actually lost it in the first place. We love that!
Masked Magic!
Face masks are a gloriously fabulous and an ever-so-effective part of any successful beauty regime. Often it’s the first thing to be jettisoned by those who see themselves as being time-poor and is chalked up as being the unnecessary part of the beauty program. Beauty Marked! just has to pipe up to say don’t loose the mask, as they are far more beneficial than you’d imagine and are so blissfully revitalizing.
Most masks, when used weekly, can be perfect ways to inject marvelous minerals and vitamins into the skin. Some masks are stellar pore de-gunkers and detoxifiers, whilst others are miracle workers when it comes to adding much needed moisture to your gorgeous visage. Certain masks are designed to exfoliate to perfection, soothe and heal the stressed, clarify, stimulate the circulation, balance the skin’s pH and oil production, to name a just a few of their varied and highly efficacious uses. Another benefit of masking is that it offers you the opportunity to relax for a little heavenly-while, sitting still, breathing deeply, and enjoying the peaceful break from the chaotic lives we can so easily lead. nice one! We reckon you’re getting the drift. Mmmm! Masks…Just magic!

It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas…
Dooo Do Do do dooo…I dare say it’s probably worth putting up with my woeful singing in order to get the goss on these divine bits of golden Christmas gorgeousness from The Body Shop.
