With a good skincare routine and quality products you can keep your skin looking and feeling glowing and radiant all winter long. Here are some of our top natural skincare tips for winter. Keeping your Skin Hydrated. The harsh weather, cold winds and dry indoor air can leave your skin dry, damaged and itchy making it more prone to becoming cracked and sore. The ultimate tip for winter skincare is hydration. Choose a hydrating product that contains nourishing oils and is easily absorbed. Pay particular attention to areas that are exposed to the weather such as face and hands. Our natural face oils and natural body oils are a great way to keep your skin naturally hydrated and protected during the winter months. Formulated to be easily absorbed by the skin our face oils contain a blend of nourishing super food oils, including Pomegranate seed oil, Apricot kernel oil, and Strawberry seed oil, that help to lock in moisture, repair, protect and soothe your skin. Avoid harsh ingredients, When your skin is already battling against the winter elements, It's good to avoid products containing petroleum jelly such as vaseline, on the face as this can clog pores. Alcohol, which can dry out the skin further and strong fragrance due to the increased chance of irritation to damaged skin. Don't forget to keep your skin hydrated from the inside too! Drinking plenty of water can help to keep your skin looking its best especially in the winter. Exfoliation for a Winter Glow Exfoliating is essential for removing dead skin cells, revealing the fresh glowing skin underneath. During winter months it's important not to over exfoliate and irritate the skin, leading to further irritation. Konjac Sponges: For a natural and gentle skin exfoliator why not try a konjac sponge, these sponges are completely natural and made from the root of the konjac tree. Konjac sponges are gentle enough for facial exfoliation and are suitable for the most sensitive of skin types. Natural Clay Face Masks: Kind Melts has a range of natural face masks, formulated to gently exfoliate and nourish your skin. Fancy making your own natural exfoliator at home? You can find some DIY natural exfoliator recipes here Winter Lip Care. The cold, dry air causes your lips to dry and crack, unlike the rest of your skin your lips don't contain oils to keep them naturally moist. So how do you keep your lips hydrated and protected in winter? Don't lick your lips, this only temporarily moistens them. Instead gently exfoliate your lips and keep them hydrated. Removing the dead skin cells with a gentle exfoliation before applying a protective product allows the product to hydrate the healthy cells rather than the build up of dry, dead skin. Add a natural balm which contains a small amount of natural wax, this helps to lock in moisture and protect the lips. Don't Neglect Your Hidden Skin. It's easy to neglect the areas of our body hidden away for the winter months in thick wools and fluffy socks but they need attention too! The winter cold and wet weather can cause knees, shins and elbows to become dry and flaky and feet to suffer. To remedy these neglected areas you can give your skin an intense moisturising treatment with our natural skin and lip balm.

- Eco Friendly Gift Wrapping Ideas with Kind Melts
With Christmas fast approaching, I always enjoy finding the perfect gifts for my loved ones. But what about the gift wrapping? Wrapping gifts is more than just hiding the surprise, it's about adding a personal touch, adding anticipation and making it special for the person receiving it. The downside to traditional wrapping paper. The problem with that shiny, glittery wrapping paper that is often used, is it's often not recyclable due to the glitter, foil and plastic coating. It's time to ditch the plastic coated wrapping paper and create a more sustainable approach to gift wrapping. Below I'll share some eco friendly gift wrapping tips and tricks that are creative, stylish, and kinder to the planet. Sustainable Gift Wrap. Recycled Paper: Opt for a rustic look with brown kraft paper, if the plain paper isn't to your taste you can decorate it using festive stamps or drawn designs. Why not make it even more personal using letter stamps to add a message and name to the recipient. Fabric Wraps: Reusable fabric wraps like the japanese art of gift wrapping Furoshiki, adds a touch of elegance to gifts. It looks beautiful and of course is sustainable, as the fabric can be used again for gifts in the future. Sari's in particular look beautiful as fabric wrapping. Repurposed Materials: This is one of my favourite ideas, Get creative and use repurposed materials that would otherwise be thrown away. Use old maps, book pages, pages of comics or magazines or repurposing fabrics from old clothes. There's so many options for creating unique gift wrapping. Natural Gift Embellishments. Add a touch of nature to your gift wrapping, with natural elements. Foliage: A sprig of holly or fir, a posy of dried flowers or a cinnamon stick tucked into a natural raffia ribbon adds a lovely festive touch. Dried Fruit: Dehydrating thinly sliced fruit such as orange, lemons and apple in your air fryer or oven to add a rustic charm. Make a small hole in the dried fruit thread onto twine and attach to your gift. Pine Cones: Pick up some pine cones on your walks, dry them thoroughly and use string or raffia around the base of the pine cones to attach them to your gifts. Salt Dough Tags: Add a handmade salt dough tag for that personal touch. salt dough tags are simple to make with products you likely have at home. To make salt dough tags you will need: 1 cup plain flour ½ cup salt ¼ – ½ cup warm water Mix the ingredients together to form a dough, roll out and use cookie cutters to make shapes and use stamps or foliage etc to decorate. Don't forget to use a straw or pencil to make a hole to attach to the gift. You can air dry the tags in a few days or place in a low heat oven for a couple of hours. Gift Wrapping Candles. We know that Kind Melts candles make a fabulous gift, but wrapping them when they're not boxed, can be a bit tricky. Here are some of my top gift wrapping ideas for candles. Tissue Paper: Classic and simple! Place the candle in the center of your tissue paper, fold the edges up to meet at the top, twist and tie with twine or raffia. Fabric Pouches: Simple sew some fabric scraps into a pouch, they're perfect for holding candles, and can be reused for future gifts or storage. Alternatively, you can use a larger piece of fabric and wrap as you would with tissue paper. Paper Tube: This is a fun and creative option! Roll a sheet of decorative card into a tube, secure the edges and bottom. Place the candle inside, add some foliage and tie with raffia ribbon for a festive finish. Pleated Paper: This is one of my favourite ways to wrap an unboxed candle, Here's how I do it: Cut a piece of paper long enough to wrap around the candle, allowing a little extra for overlapping. Cut the paper so it is approximately 2-3 inches longer than the height of the candle. This excess is to make the pleating at each end. Wrap the paper around the candle leaving the same amount of excess paper at each end, secure the seam with paper tape or glue. Starting at one end, fold the excess paper in towards the center, creating a pleat. Move along and repeat making pleats until the end surface is covered. Secure the final fold with paper tape or glue. Repeat the process on the other end of the candle. Add raffia or paper ribbon to finish the look! Finishing Touches. Securing your gifts: Instead of plastic tape, I always use paper tape, twine or raffia. It's biodegradable and adds a lovely natural touch. Furoshiki, Fabric Wrapping: There are many ways to tie a fabric wrap, from a bag knot to a flower knot. You can find a tutorial here. https://keikofuroshiki.com/pages/how-tie-furoshiki The Personal Touch: Finish off your gift with a personal message on a gift tag or a salt dough gift tag. Giving a gift is about more than just the present itself, It's about showing you care. Get creative in a sustainable way and add a touch of magic with Kind Melts eco friendly gift wrapping ideas.

- Relaxing Candles: The Crackle of a Wooden Wick Candle.

In this post we'll discover the the magic of wooden wick candles, exploring the benefits, the science behind the crackle, and how these relaxing candles can enhance your home. The Relaxing Candles. A wooden wick candle provides you with a multi sensory experience that goes beyond a regular scented candle. Their distinct features make them a popular choice for todays candle lovers. Soothing Crackle: The soft crackling sounds of wooden wick candles mimics the sound of a log fire, creating a warm and cosy atmosphere. This extra dimension to a scented candle evokes feelings of relaxation and calm. Wider Flame and Superior Fragrance: The flame of a wooden wick is not just visually appealing but also gives a strong fragrance throw by releasing the fragrance evenly and effectively. Eco Friendly: Kind Melts source their wooden wicks from FSC certified wood sources, making them a more eco conscious choice for scented candles. What makes wooden wick candles crackle? The crackling sound of a wooden wick is caused by the way wood burns. As the flame heats the wooden wick, the moisture in the wood evaporates creating air pockets. These air pockets expand and burst creating the crackling sound. The wax and fragrance used in the candle can also impact the amount of crackle your candle emits. How to light a wooden wick candle. Lighting a wooden wick candle is slightly different to a regular candle. Trim the wick: Before lighting your wooden wick candle, ensure your wick is trimmed to about 3-5mm. This will ensure a clean burn and prevent the flame from being either to large or too small. If there is any charred wood remove this before lighting, charred wood will not relight. Lighting a wooden wick: Slightly tilt the candle and apply the match flame ( or candle lighter) to the top surface of the wick. Keep the flame across the wick for a few seconds, wooden wicks can take a bit longer to ignite. Top Tip Burning time: On first use ensure you burn your candle for long enough to prevent tunneling, You should aim to burn the candle until the top of the wax is melted this usually takes around 2-4 hours. Candles should not be burned for longer than 4 hours at a time. Kind Melts wooden wick candles: A sensory escape. We want you to experience the magic of our wooden wick candles.
