Many of us buy good skincare and cosmetic products for our faces, but tend to neglect our bodies. Although the skin on other parts of our body may not always be as visible as our faces, it is still as prone to damage and aging from harsh environmental elements.

A good bodycare regime starts daily. A bodyshampoo thoroughly cleanses from head to toe, leaving hair and skin silky soft and smooth. The hair cleanser includes protein from pomegranate or lemongrass, which not only cleans and conditions your hair, it also helps to strengthen the follicles and epidermis. As there are no artificial chemicals in organic bodyshampoos, you do not have to worry about build-ups in your hair. Your hair will be left shiny and smooth. Most importantly, since it is wholly made of natural ingredients, it is also suitable for sensitive and allergy-prone skin.

A good bodyscrub is necessary once to thrice a week to exfoliate and rejuvenate our skin. Organic bodyscrubs contain sea salt crystals or cane sugar and are very effective in removing dead skin, yet gentle enough not to strip off our skin's natural moisture. They are also infused with antioxidants and essential oils from red mandarins, mango hemps, Thai coconuts or tea berries, all of which are effective in rejuvenating our skin to give it a smooth and healthy glow.

Similar to facial skincare, exfoliation should always be followed by moisturising. A good body lotion contains antioxidants from sweet mangoes and tea berries, and complex vitamins E, C, D and A to protect our skin from sun damage, free radicals and other urban aggressors. It is designed to sufficiently hydrate and moisturise our skin to give it a supple and radiant glow. At the same time, our skin is toned because collagen and elastin tissues are activated as soon as the non-greasy moisturiser is absorbed. Natural ingredients used in the making of the product ensure that it is gentle enough for all skin types.

For very thirsty skin, the use of body butter is highly recommended. Body butters contain highly concentrated essential oils and botanical butters such as Thai coconut oil, kiwi oil, grape seed oil, cranberry oil, jojoba oil, mango butter and Shea butter. These are further infused with complex omegas and nutrients which penetrate deep into the epidermis of the skin to repair the dehydrated skin. Dehydrated skin tends to look dull old. However, the complex vitamins in organic body butters deeply nourishes and moisturises the skin, leaving our skin youthful, radiant, supple and healthy.

Due to our urban and busy lifestyles, we have a tendency to neglect our bodies and allow urban environmental aggressors take their toll on our skin. Organic body care products not only benefit us, they are also friendly to the environmental. A body spa kit is convenient for the busy urban person. More importantly, being able to customise the kit by choosing different products ensures that the kit is customised to suit the individual's needs. With a wonderful and convenient kit like this, we have no reason not to give our bodies some tender loving care.
