Refresh and repair

 

Sunshine itself is an uplifting tonic;  it helps to lift the spirits and can have a healing and cleansing effect on the body, working to strengthen the immune system.  However, too much sun can lead to dry skin and the effects of too much sun are aging and, even more importantly, harmful. Facemasks can put some of the goodness back into your skin and after a 10-15min application of a mask your face can be left feeling rejuvenated and revitalized.
