Working-from-home beauty essentials

By Sarah Joan Ross on 19/3/2020

As a working-from-home aficionado, these are the beauty products I rely on to get me through the day.
My home-office essentials consist of the following: plenty of aromatherapy products that can help to boost energy, productivity and focus the mind (especially when thoughts wander to the biscuit tin or Netflix).
Add to those formulations to help protect against artificial light, screen time and damaging rays; easy desk-friendly hand creams that are dispensed in one pump and finally, something to avoid a deathly pallor if you perhaps haven’t seen daylight in a while.
Keep well, everyone.

Home fragrance pods are the modern way to fragrance your home. They don’t burn and release any potentially harmful VOCs into your space, they add moisture to the air, plus the mood-altering essential oils can calm, de-stress, or energise when the mid-afternoon slump hits.
