#StayHome Products
I think we all need distractions right now and let’s be honest, most of us in isolation ,are living our daily lives in our PJ’s and it’s less about our makeup must haves and more about skincare, relaxation and wellness. So I am here, to bring you my 8 isolation must haves, to keep you healthy, relaxed and feeling fresh
1. BEAR ESSENTIALS VITAMIN GUMMIES
I am spending my isolation in a flat, with no garden, like many of you, and although, some of us get out once a day for our daily exercise, we are all definitely lacking vitamin D that we get from the sun light plus many more vitamins. If you’re anything like me, trying to swallow tablets never quite appeals. I have found a solution bear essentials vitamins, packed with all your essential vitamins, all in a delicious 100% plant based vegan gummy bear Each gummy is at least 100% of your recommended daily intake of Vitamin B12, Vitamin D, Vitamin B6, Folic Acid and Iodine.
The key benefits ,I believe that will contribute to your beauty and wellness is that Vitamin D is a great source for healthy skin, and hair as it stimulates cell growth, and helps create new hair follicles. It is also great for muscle health, with many of us moving less this is very beneficial.
For those people who need support with their mental wellness at this worrying time, Vitamin B12 and vitamin B6 have both been known to improve mood and reduce symptoms of depression. But all these vitamins, have many more amazing health benefits for your body and mind.
Price: £18 for a jar of 60 or £32 for a jar 120 Gummies.

4. The Saviour Sponge by farm girl By Sarah Jane
Yes! Another product by Sarah Jane, can you tell I’m a fan?Well, very soon, you will be too.
If you’re a beauty lover. Like me, then I’m sure you have been getting involved in all those live makeup tutorials in isolation, and then spending ages, just to take it all off again. If so, this is the perfect product, it takes off all your makeup, just with water!
The saviour sponge is perfect for all skin types and genders for removing dirt on the daily.
The soft microfibers expand when wet, getting into pores and even removing mascara, just with water.
This non-toxic, reusable, super soft, saviour sponge means no more wipes or cotton pads, making the Saviour sponge cost effective and environmentally friendly.
We all see, first hand, how our actions take their toll on the environment. Let’s take a look at the Venice Canals for example, ,due to lockdowns and cut downs on water traffic, the Venice Canals are now beautifully clear, So let’s help nature carry on its path to cleaning our world, by making small changes, like the saviour sponge, instead of wipes.
Wipes take 100 years to break down in landfill and 700% more wipes are ending up at our beaches and contaminating marine life, not to mention, they contain chemicals that can aggravate your skin.
The saviour sponge is easy to clean using baby shampoo or put in a wash with a mild detergent, leaving it looking brand new.
