✨ Hello Lovely,
In this week’s Plants, Flowers, Oils, & Whimsy podcast, I shared how layering skincare products—like sprays, serums, and oils—can deeply hydrate and support mature skin. It's a gentle, intentional ritual that honors your skin's evolving needs.
Layering isn't about adding more. It's about creating a soft rhythm of care. And today, I’m giving you recipes to help bring that rhythm into your own skincare moments.
