Winter weather is not kind to our skin. As moms, we rarely take some time out for ourselves let alone take a day to go to the spa! No need to actually when you can get your glow on at home with Mama Mio's The Smoothie Spa-at-Home Kit available for $59.00 from www.mamamio.com.

This kit is for any and every mama, from 18-80. The Smoothie is Mama Mio's first take home spa treat to give your over-challenged skin the boost it needs. It contains three Mama Mio essentials: Moisturising Shower Cream, Supersmooth Body Buff and OMega Body Oil. Gently cleanse, exfoliate and mega-moisturise your skin so you feel great in the buff!

Good elasticity is very important at all times (this is their mantra) and you need to regularly exfoliate and feed your skin to elasticise it. In short, be good to your skin and your skin will be good to you.
 
Start with their Moisturising Shower Cream to gently cleanse all over. Want to know a secret? It is actually a baby cleanser. They felt that every mama can use a little babying sometimes. That explains why it is so gentle; it won’t strip your skin like a harsh soap. And of course it is sodium laureth sulfate free – it’s from Mama Mio.
 
Next is the important exfoliation stage. Their Supersmooth Body Buff will gently and effectively remove the dead skin cells that stop nourishment penetrating your skin. The tiny granules are micro-ground natural pumice blended with Sweet Almond Oil to ensure that the Body Buff slides easily all over and isn’t too harsh. They find it best to use Body Buff on dry or damp skin rather than very wet skin – try it and see.
 
Once you have rinsed off all traces of Body Buff, your skin will be ready to absorb their beautifully fragrant O•Mega Body Oil. Spend a little time massaging this omega-packed body oil all over your newly polished body (great for tired legs and dimply skin). Your skin will glow with the boost to your circulation and greedily soak up those miracle omegas – your skin’s superfoods.
 
The Smoothie should be an essential part of your weekly skincare routine because, as every mama knows, elastic skin is fantastic skin.
