I’m a mother, nutritional therapist and author who has been sharing recipes to help you get the glow back for the last 8 years...
Festival season is on us and we want to get the festival glow, and keep it!
It gets hot and sweaty being in the sun all day and makeup doesn’t stay on too long.
So, what are the essentials?
These little seeds are hydrophilic, absorbing 10 times their weigh in water. Pop a tablespoon of chia seeds in some tupperware with some water, and eat for brekkie to keep your skin fresh all day.
This superfood will keep your dancing shoes on all weekend. Mix it into some water or make some maca ball treats for the trip:
Place all the ingredients into a food processor and pulse until combine, roll into balls and enjoy.
I always have my Pai avocado moisturiser on me. Lather a little of this cream on before bed and you will wake up positively glowing.
Festival food isn’t great, so make some of my maca balls (above) bring a bag of nuts, coconut flakes, some coconut water and nak’d bars.
I like the cashew one
It can be hard to sleep at the best of times, but with music and people running riot you might need a little hammer. I love to mix some valerian root extra and drop it into my mouth before bed.
Recover the night’s damage with bananas, coconut oil and fresh ginger tea. Taking a B12 vitamin and a good probiotic will help to restore you back to your glowing self… and of course lots of water.
When I get home, a proper shower and a facial usually gets me back on track. I love Pai’s facial at Being Content. Using natural products, this facial promises to be a soft and luxurious experience. It gets the glow back after much debauchery!
The most important step is to enjoy yourself! What are your top tips for getting your festival glow?
My food philosophy is all about enlivening the hottest, happiest and healthiest you. It’s about keeping things simple and delicious so you don’t feel bored or deprived.
