BEAUTY MUST-HAVE

Don’t be afraid to try the boys toys. Jack Black – Face Buff – While this line is geared towards men, I love the menthol and Vitamin C wakeup it gives my face in the morning ($22). Then there’s Maui Lavender’s Sugar Scrub, Body Butter and Essential Oils: all products are made with lavender that is grown here on the island. The decadent Heavenly Body treatment offered at the full-service spa uses the sugar scrub to exfoliate the skin, followed by a refreshing shower. You are then wrapped in a warm cocoa butter blend while you enjoy a soothing scalp massage.

BEAUTY ADVICE?

Take time for yourself. If you allocate an hour a day for you to do something that you enjoy, you’ll notice a difference in your energy, demeanor and overall health. The activities could range from swimming to reading, meditation or anything that you are passionate about. Spend time on yourself as you are worth it!
