The Duo Ritual

At the end of a long and tiring day,

A deep oil-cleanse will melt away,

Dirt, impurities, and all that has been.

To reveal glowing skin that feels so clean.


Nectar Balm could be your first step,

A night-time ritual with minimal prep.

Take in the scent of Illumine's sweet musk,

While you fade into autumn's dusk - 

In an ancient forest that's lost its green,

You slowly embrace the calming scene.


Its smooth, soft balm is deeply nourishing,

In its melt, your skin will be flourishing.

But if your day was exceptionally heavy,

A double-cleanse could be your levy.


A second step with Aloe Melt,

To release the day and all that you felt.

Breathe in a crisp morning in Spring,

Illumine's sweet, citrus-mint will bring.

Cool and soothing hydration,

A ritual of your own curation.


And when your deep oil-cleanse is done,

To moisturise - you may not wish to shun.

Aloe Melt will offer light hydration,

Or Nectar Balm could be your deep salvation.

Whatever option you may choose,

The most important thing not to confuse,

Is to listen to your skin and let it be your guide,

For it will show you what should be applied.
