What Kelsey is Using Now!

Dec 06, 2015Adam Hart

This is a new series of posts from the team at NYR Canada! We want to share with you what we're using now! This series will feature one of us each week talking our favourite products, transitioning between seasons and getting our glow on with natural, organic products. We welcome your feedback and questions - enjoy!

Name: Kelsey Schiavon

 

 

Position: VP, NYR Canada

Skin type: Pretty normal, oily t-zone

Hair type: Lots. Thick and unruly!

Morning routine: I cleanse my face with lukewarm water and a clean muslin cloth. I follow-up with our Rose Toner (which is an absolute skin saver!) then apply our Wild Rose Beauty Elixir. The elixir adds major radiance to my skin (turmeric & wild rosehip!), even in Calgary's climate! Finally, I apply moisturizer and eye cream. I love our Rose Formula Hydrating Eye Cream - it targets fine lines and has such a lovely texture! I always finish getting ready with a swipe of our lipgloss - Damson is the perfect colour for winter!


Night routine:
I take off my make-up with either Jojoba Oil or our Wild Rose Beauty Balm and a clean muslin cloth and then tone again. Once or twice a week I exfoliate with our Rose Facial Polish to revitalize dull skin (with no plastic microbeads!). I shower in the evenings so will reach for our Nurturing Rose Shampoo and Conditioner because they make my hair feel like I'm using something much more naughty. After the shower I apply a DIY facial oil - I combined jojoba oil, rosehip oil, apricot and calendula macerated oil with some of my favourite essential oils (like Frankincense, Palmarosa and Lavender). Then I slather more oil over the rest of my body, either jojoba or another DIY combo.I also indulge in a weekly goddess bath with rose petals, candles and a cup of tea!

Travel beauty essential: Wild Rose Beauty Balm! Couldn't go without it... and our Travel Ready to Roll, facial wipes and normal skincare kit. I'm not a very light packer.

Coffee or tea: Mushroom coffee, and then tea! I usually start my day with a delicious mushroom elixir (organic coffee, cacao, reishi, cinnamon, vanilla, raw honey and nut mylk) and then move to herbal teas for the rest of the day. I mix and match my tea selection based on the day and my mood.

Favourite superfood: Right now - bee pollen! What an amazing nutrient profile - I add it to my smoothies :)

What's on the menu for breakfast: I alternate between smoothies and chia pudding. Right now, I'm loving warmed chia pudding. I warm chia, coconut milk, cinnamon and vanilla and then top with everything seasonal (right now I'm combining pomegranate seeds, cranberries, bee pollen and cacao nibs!).
