made for oldstead

We hope you enjoy your restoring bath & body kit during your stay at The Black Swan Oldstead. I wanted to divulge more about the products and why we chose them for you.
restoring bath salts is where you should start your journey and the product we'll talk about first. Made with magnesium flakes, magnesium is one of the many daily minerals our body requires and this can be absorbed via the skin, which is why we chose it as the base for this product. So you can top up your magnesium levels while soaking in a beautiful roll-top bath.
Magnesium also relieves tired muscles, soothes aches, and relaxes the nervous system. Mixed with British chamomile essential oil that you'll smell as soon as you open the jar, relieving the stress and tension of the day.

The purple flowers you'll see are dried borage flowers from the gardens here at Oldstead, known to help ease inflammation. Perfect after a long walk around the North Yorkshire Moors (view my favourite walk from Oldstead
Following on from your bath, lock in essential moisture with the restoring body balm. An ultra-rich, buttery body balm that nourishes and repairs whilst allowing you a few precious moments of restorative self-care.
Formulated with hyaluronic acid to leave skin feeling supple, soothed, and restored. Whilst the blissful aroma of patchouli, bergamot, and lavender helps you to relax and unwind. Apply a thicker layer to your feet and cover with socks for an extra indulgence.
Finally, the body brush, often underrated, should be an essential part of your daily routine. Helping to physically remove dry and dulling skin cells and boosting circulation, dry body brushing can help reveal smoother, more radiant skin. Beyond exfoliation, it enhances the lymphatic system and blood flow, aiding in waste removal and natural detoxification. By stimulating the lymphatic system, which is a major part of our immune system, we’re encouraging our body to detoxify naturally, ultimately helping to support our immunity and strengthening our susceptibility to illness. I'd recommend body brushing BEFORE your morning shower, working in short one-directional strokes towards your heart on dry skin.
I hope you enjoy your stay and my products while you're away from home. If you'd like to try any more of the collection or replenish your kit, use the code OLDSTEAD to get 20% off online.
