Blankets, Baskets & Beauty: Your Picnic Prep with Give Me

National Picnic Week is here and there is nothing better than a day in the park or anywhere green! With good weather. Tasty snacks and good company, what a way to relax. It’s certainly the best time of the year to take your self-care outside with you. Why not add a little beauty boost to your blanket setup?

With Give Me Cosmetics, you can enjoy the fresh air while keeping your skin glowing and your hair looking great. In this blog, we’ll show you how to combine beauty and nature for the ultimate picnic day.

Whether you’re heading to the park or relaxing at home, these easy ideas will help you feel fresh, pampered, and picnic ready.

 

Get Set Picnic

Just before you head out for your sunny self care picnic, you need to start the day off right with a routine that sets the tone for glowy, protected skin. 

• Cleanse
• Tone
• Moisturise

Start your routine with a cleanser that suits your skin. For a deep but gentle clean, try our new Salicylic Cleanser which is great for keeping skin clear and fresh. If your skin’s looking a bit dull, go for our Vitamin C Illuminating Cleanser to brighten things up. Or, for soft and hydrated skin, the Hyaluronic Cleanser is perfect for a plumper, dewy finish. 

 

 

Next, apply one of our refreshing toners from our selection  to balance your skin and prepare it for moisture. Finish your routine with our top rated Broad Spectrum SPF50 to protect your skin from sun damage all day long.

 

Pack Your Picnic Bag with Beauty Boosters

While you’re soaking up the sunshine, enjoying sandwiches, and sharing laughs, your self care routine can stay just as fresh and effortless. Give Me Cosmetics has all the on the go beauty essentials you need to stay radiant and confident throughout your picnic day.

Body Sprays are a must-have for a quick refreshing spritz that lifts your mood and keeps you smelling amazing. Choose from fruity, sweet, or soothing scents to match your picnic vibe.

 

For soft, kissable lips, bring along one of our many Lip Scrubs to gently exfoliate away dryness, followed by the luxurious Pink Champagne Lip Mask to deeply hydrate and pamper your pout. If you need a quick fix, the Lemonade Lip Repair or a nourishing Lip Oil deliver moisture and shine wherever you are.

 

Keep your hands feeling smooth with the rich Coconut Hand Cream. Which is perfect after unpacking picnic goodies or washing up outdoors.

Two must have mists to keep your skin happy outdoors: the Barrier Repair Replenishing Mist, which nourishes and restores your skin’s protective barrier, or the Hypochlorous Acid Face Spray, known for its soothing and calming effects! It is especially helpful if the sun leaves your skin feeling sensitive or flushed.

 

Taming your hair is just as important when you’re out in the great outdoors. The flexi paddle brush or vent brush are perfect for detangling and styling without damage. Or the pin tail comb helps you create neat partings or quick updos adding in our new Slick Back Gel.. A few drops of the hair serum will smooth flyaways and add shine, and a claw clip is your best friend for effortless, chic hairstyles on the go.

And because you never know when you might need a little extra grooming, a compact pair of tweezers is an essential in your picnic beauty kit.

With these Give Me Cosmetics essentials by your side, you can focus on fun and relaxation, knowing you look and feel your best all day long.

 

Create Your Own Indoor Picnic and Spa Day Experience.

If you can’t go outside, you can still enjoy a picnic vibe right at home. It’s easy to create a relaxing and fun self-care day indoors.

Find a cosy spot in your home and spread out a blanket. Add some pillows to make it comfortable. Prepare some snacks you love, like fresh fruit, nuts, or a sweet treat. Put on some relaxing music or nature sounds to help you feel calm and peaceful.

 

Then use this time to treat your skin and hair with some pampering. Start by applying a hair mask to nourish your hair while you relax. Next, use a face mask to refresh and brighten your skin. Don’t forget those feet, try a foot peel to soften and rejuvenate them.

We recommend choosing one of our complete haircare sets to help you create that perfect at home picnic vibe. Each set includes everything you need from shampoo and conditioner to a nourishing hair mask, serum, and brush making it easy to pamper your hair from start to finish.

 

Enhance the experience by adding a tropical touch with our luxurious body butters and sprays. Choose from the fresh, fruity notes of Botanical Breeze, the warm vanilla and caramel scents of Carmel Vacay, or our newest fragrances, Orchid Dreams, featuring soft violet and vanilla orchid aromas. And don’t forget Sunset Serenity, a cozy blend of sweet fruits and warm caramel, perfect for a relaxing finish.

 

Make your self care session even better by adding some journaling or meditation. Write down your thoughts, feelings, or things you’re grateful for. Or try a simple meditation or breathing exercise to help you relax and feel centred.

This simple routine helps you feel calm and refreshed, making your at home picnic a peaceful and enjoyable self care experience.

 

From Sun to Skin: Gentle Care After Your Picnic Day

After spending time outdoors in the sun and breeze, your skin needs some extra care to recover and stay healthy. Exposure to the elements can leave your skin feeling dry, tired, or irritated, so a gentle and nourishing routine is key. 

So we begin with removing all traces of makeup, sunscreen, and impurities with Give Me Cosmetics’ Makeup Remover. This helps cleanse your skin thoroughly without stripping away moisture.

Next, hydrate and soothe your skin with a Hyaluronic Sheet Mask. Packed with moisturizing ingredients, this mask replenishes your skin’s moisture levels and calms any redness or dryness caused by sun exposure.

You then can finish your routine with our rich Rejuvenating Overnight Cream, which supports skin repair and renewal while you sleep. This cream helps restore softness, firmness, and a healthy glow, so you wake up feeling refreshed and revitalized.

 

 

With this simple routine, your skin will quickly recover from a day outdoors and stay radiant and nourished. So go ahead and enjoy every moment of National Picnic Week feeling fresh, confident, and picnic ready.
