RUA Soothe Serum

2.

Favourite ritual

My morning yoga ritual, it calms my mind, keeps me in a positive mindset, and helps me feel good.

3.

Product you can’t live without

Would it be too cliché to say I can’t live without my Soothe & Hydrate duo? Yes? Ok, lip balm. I cannot live without lip balm. My personal formula is my fav, but when I don’t have time to make them I use Neal’s Yard Remedies Shea Nut & Rose hip lip balm.

4.

 Best part of your work

Changing the lives of my customers and their skin. It’s the best feeling in the world when a customer reports curing their skin issues from switching to the RUA routine.

5.

Favourite place

Oo, this is hard! I have many favourite places, where to begin!?
In the water is one of my favourite places. I’m a Pisces and the water is my sanctuary. Whether it’s freezing sea temps or in a turquoise tropical paradise, I feel free when I’m in the water.

We are taking a break until May the 5th.
