Your Winter Self Care Guide

Start your day with fenugreek or Egyptian Liquorice tea

The benefits of these teas are phenomenal for your gut health and digestion. Switch out your first sips of coffee, with these body-mind boosting teas!

Get organized and plan your day around the short prayer times

The shorter, darker days make for some benefits. A more scheduled and consistent day, especially when it comes to catching your prayers. Using a planner and really chunking out your days around the prayers will help you prioritize those moments, but also maximize on your efforts in between. Get creative, use sticky notes, markers, stickers, whatever you need to get on track!

Increase your hydration game

Don’t let yourself shrivel up this winter! It can get dry, itchy and just plain crusty in the winter. Keep your body hydrated from the inside out with these simple products.

Find simple ways to give back to your community

It doesn’t have to be big, but it has to be something. Finding simple ways to participate in your community or give back in some way actually feeds your soul and your community-care, alongside your individual self-care. It boosts endorphins!

Turn your bathroom into a hammam spa with these products

Don’t settle for anything less. Leaving the house in the knee-high snow isn’t an option. So why not turn your bathroom into a hammam spa experience. You need an Arabic coffee body scrub, candles, some oils, set the mood and burn some oud.

Give yourself a hair oil treatment

Get into routine of picking a day in the week each week to oil your hair. It’s sunnah and definitely has some amazing hair health benefits (duh!) - so why not add it to your list of self care treats. Try oiling your hair with Islamically inspired ingredients from Camel Glow and the amazing effects of honey from Gisou. You can also simply use organic honey, olive oil and black seed oil.

Incorporate remembrance of God in your beauty routines. Express gratitude and appreciation for His creation and all that you’ve been blessed with.

While you enjoy pampering yourself and engaging in your beauty and self care routines, we encourage remembering to be grateful and in awe of your beautiful self and the beauty around you. Before you touch your skin, say bismillah, when you massage your products in, say alhamdulillah and be in complete admiration of what Allah has given you.
