What Does Mindful Beauty Mean To You?: Q&A With Beauty Guru, Holly Carr

person Posted By: Ailsa Watson list In: Selfcare

We spoke with Beauty Guru, Holly Carr to find out what mindful beauty means to her.

The beauty industry has historically driven unrealistic beauty standards. However, today, new beauty brands are emerging and redefining these standards, ensuring there is room for diversity, uniqueness and a focus on mood-boosting products. This is everything we at flânerie skincare support, with a focus on developing multi-sensory vegan beauty essentials we hope to empower everyone in their pursuit of wellbeing.

With a positive shift in the industry, skincare is transforming everyday beauty routines from ordinary practices to transformative rituals that helps us to slow down and take time for ourselves. In life, we can experience all levels of stress or anxiety. Taking a bath, meditating for 10 minutes, or slathering our favourite body moisturiser on (Our Firming Body Moisturiser, Ocean Swell!), can all help to combat these negative feelings. While we understand that these beauty rituals aren’t a cure for mental health, they can help with tranquillity, wellness, and self-love. All of which help to trigger positive emotions, helping to produce dopamine, serotonin, and endorphins.

flânerie skincare saw emotion as a necessity when it came to beauty essentials. The need for better selfcare was highlighted even further during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, as conversations on stress and mental health were largely spoken about. At flanerie we take a holistic approach to beauty, focusing on a balance between mind, body and soul. In homage to our founding philosophy, we aim to elevate life’s simple pleasures through formulas enriched with textures and scents that take you on a journey of exploration.

“In a fast-paced world, flânerie celebrates slowing down, embracing the now and enjoying life's simple pleasures.”

What does Mindful Beauty mean to you?

Holly - “For me it means taking time to look into the products I’m using, making sure it’s what will work best on my skin while also making me feel good.”

Ailsa - We love it! We are a firm believer of doing what makes you feel good. Taking a proactive approach to our emotional state of mind can help us to move into a space of wellness and self-reflection. The blend of skin health and emotion is a quintessential blend.

As we know, our Purifying Green Clay Mask has become a staple in your self-care routine. Our products are created to be multi-sensory, with smell being a key component of a beauty ritual. How does the smell of our Purifying Green Clay Mask make you feel? 

Holly - “So SO relaxed. It’s beautiful.”

Ailsa - This is honestly one of our favourite scents from our range. Inspired by the sharp aroma that comes from Eucalyptus. The minty, citronella scent helps to clear your thoughts. It is the perfect beauty essential for a self-care routine.

How does your skin feel after using our Purifying Green Clay Mask? 

Holly - “Very fresh, nourished and not tight, which is what I was expecting from a clay mask. I find this one really hydrating and leaves my skin feeling balanced, brighter and my skin tone more even.”

What’s your favourite ingredient in our Purifying Green Clay Mask and why? 

Holly - “I’m not sure I have a favourite ingredient as such but I love the way the ingredients work together in this mask.”

Ailsa - We agree, it’s hard to pick just one! The blend of Salicylic Acid, Thyme Oil and Seaweed create a powerful formula which help to combat blemishes, eliminate excess sebum, soothe the skin and also help to plump the skin.
