When the products that fill our shelves are constantly telling us what we need to “fix” about our appearance, it becomes a lot less about caring for ourselves and can feel heavy on our mind. But what if personal care was actually about that? CARE.
As girls, a personal care routine is an integral part of our lives and the message that we aren’t good enough is neither true nor supporting our mental well-being. So at SadieB, we created products to support your body AND mind by reprioritizing personal development over unrealistic beauty standards. When a personal care routine benefits the body and mind, it can be life-changing.
Routine Benefits
Establishing a consistent personal care routine can have profound effects on your mental health. Regular self-care practices help reduce stress, boost self-esteem, and create a sense of stability and control. When you take time to care for yourself, you're sending a powerful message that you are worthy of care and attention (Vermani, 2023).
Pro-tip: use the Go-getter Collection if you shower in the morning to give you an energizing boost with the grapefruit floral scent and use the Athlete collection for a soothing vanilla mint shower before bed.
Practical Tips
- The small things count. It can get overwhelming when you want to take care of your mental health and completely overhaul your routine. We’ve been there, we get it! Start small and simple. It still counts!
- Physical and mental hygiene go hand-in-hand. Lookout for your body and mind so they can support one another.
