nss G-Club ultimate guide for the perfect quarantine beauty routine
6 beauty secrets to take the most out of this period
March 20th, 2020
Staying at home doesn't mean forgetting our normal habits (especially in terms of beauty) to stay on the couch in pyjamas, dishevelled and make up free all day long. Even if we no longer have the excuse of "making ourselves beautiful" to go to the office or to go out to dinner, it is important to maintain a correct beauty routine without letting ourselves go, also considering the fact that we are often in a video call with friends or work colleagues.
And there's more. Preserving your beauty rituals will also help you feel better about yourself: starting the day preparing yourself as always will bring a sense of everyday life that - in such a chaotic period - will undoubtedly help you get started on the right foot.
Are you ready? Thanks to nss G-Club ultimate beauty-guide you can continue to have perfect skin, hair and hands and, why not, also get to know new products that you never had time to try before!
1. 5 PRODUCTS FOR THE PERFECT HAIR DETOX
Let's start with the hair. Is it often too dry, opaque and with little vitality? Well, these days of "forced rest" are the right occasion to find a remedy with delicate masks, oils and scrubs, that are able to regenerate the scalp eliminating all impurities, if used constantly. And if you want a DIY version, just mix 3 tablespoons of white clay with 2 tablespoons of castor oil, 2 tablespoons of shea butter and 3 tablespoons of honey. Leave on for 30 minutes and then rinse with green tea.
2. 5 PRODUCTS FOR A IN-HOME MANICURE
Between one household affair and another, without considering the number of times we are washing our hands in this particular period, the issue of hands and nails during quarantine can become a problem. That's why what better time to take care of them? So go ahead for all those super moisturizing products for skin and cuticles, without forgetting to apply the nail polish to perfection as we learnt here from our Isabella, aka @unghiedellamadonna!

And, given the time available, do not forget to do a scrub a couple of days before to avoid the creation of the terrible ingrown hair! If, however, you want and prefer an even more natural alternative to DIY at home, add sugar, water and lemon juice, mix everything and boil for 5 or 6 minutes then pour into a jar and let cool for a few seconds. Et voilà, the mixture is done!
