Life can be so busy at times. We take care of our own lives by doing the typical “adulting” responsibilities like paying bills, cooking, working, cleaning, exercising, and then we also tend to take care of those around us. We help a friend in need. We tend to our kids when they’re sick. We bring meal to a loved one during a hard time. We volunteer at local shelters. We show up for those around us. But when was the last time you took a moment to stop and think about taking care of yourself? We know you don’t have all the time in the world, nobody does. But we’re here to remind you that taking care of yourself helps you to better take care of those around you.
Below are some simple ways to treat yourself through self-care techniques and natural products:
Soak Away the Stress
Our skin can always use a little extra TLC and, at Pantry Products, we have some lovely products to help you take care of you…naturally. Draw up a warm bath and pour in one of our many bath time treats like the Warming Chai Milk Bath or the Pretty In Pink Sea Salt Soak. Or, if loads of suds is more your cup of tea, slip into a tub of bubbles courtesy of our I Like Big Bubbles & I Cannot Lie.
While you’re soaking away, treat your skin to one of our Clay Masks and your hair to our Organic Coconut & Honey Hair Masque. Your face will be toned, exfoliated and cleanser and your locks will be hydrated and happy. Team these tub-time treats with your favorite drink or book to really start relaxing. We can see the stress melting away already.
Can You Smell The Love Tonight?
Remember how we talked about not having all the time in the world? We get that. Here are a few ways to freshen up the air around you in just a few quick minutes.
Use our Air + Linen Spray around your living room or office to quickly enhance the air that you’re breathing. Simple, effective, clean.
Want to really set a special mood? Light one of our Hand Poured Soy Candles in your bedroom, living room, or bathroom to fill the space with heavenly aromas. Our 16 oz. candles feature a crackling wood wick to really bring on cozy vibes.
Treat Yo’ Hands + Feet
We use our hands and feet every single day, but do we actually take care of them? Well, we should be. Whether it’s a quick treatment before bed or in between emails and meetings, there are so many quick and easy ways to treat our appendages. With harsh winter upon us, it’s the ideal time to show them some love.
Our Gardener’s Hand Salve is a great healer of dry, cracked hands and heels. Bonus, the essential oil blend featuring rose, lavender, and chamomile conjure up memories of warm summer days.
Looking for a little exfoliation with your hydration? Grab a jar of our Body Polish. The combination of sugar and oils smooth out + hydrate dry hands as well as chapped lips, flaky legs, and any other body part that could use a little love.
Are you cuticles looking red and ragged? Give them some extra love with our Nail & Cuticle Essential Oil. The blend of nourishing sweet almond and jojoba oil combined with healing essential oils will heal those babies in a jiffy!
Lastly, take care of those tootsies with our Peppermint Foot Salve . It is a must for hydrating your feet and can be done while you sleep. We don’t think it gets any easier than that!
Self-Love Activities
We know that not everybody’s ideal relaxation is sitting still. Some of us unwind by being active. Don’t worry, we see you too!
For our yoga loving pals, book that class or take 30 minutes to breathe on your mat at home. Either way, don’t forget to use our Yoga Room & Mat Spray to keep your mat and space smelling fresh.
If being one with nature is how you choose to pause and reflect then grab our outdoor products to protect, prevent, and soothe you from Nature’s delights. Our SPF 30 Sunscreen Stick is easy to apply and naturally protects you from harmful rays using coconut oil, beeswax, non-nano zinc, and carrot seed oil.
Protect your precious lips from winter’s harsh realities with our Hand Poured Lip Balms. With so many delicious flavors, there’s no excuse for chapped lips.
After your outdoor adventure is complete, treat your body to our Soothing Arnica Muscle Salve. Infused with arnica flowers, cayenne pepper, and ginger, it’s the ideal balm to help relax those burning muscles.
