1 - Make body moisturising a ritual

Body lotions and oils are available in different flavours and scents. Body oils are more effective in helping us relax and release stress.

A surefire way to ignite the senses, perfumes have the power to help us feel a little less stressed. Roll onto pulse points for the ultimate quick fix.
