Model, entrepreneur and wellness advocate Georgia Mae Gibbs is known for her holistic approach to beauty and lifestyle. Her self-care philosophy aligns closely with Jurlique’s belief in nurturing both skin and soul through mindful rituals and nature-powered skincare. It’s this thoughtful approach that makes her the perfect guide as we explore how modern life affects our skin and how to reset skin, body and mind.
Environmental Stressors & Skin
From sunrise to sundown, your skin is exposed to more than meets the eye. Harsh weather, pollution, stress, and lack of sleep—these are all part of the exposome: the collection of external and internal factors shown to accelerate visible signs of ageing. It is scientifically proven that over 80% of skin ageing is caused by these lifestyle and environmental stressors.*
When these factors build up, skin can begin to feel depleted, lacking its usual glow, smoothness, and resilience. That’s why mindful daily rituals matter. Taking a few minutes each day to reset your mind and revitalise your skin can make all the difference.
To help us on our journey, Georgia shared how she resets her day, mindfully and meaningfully, while defending her skin from the stressors of modern life.
Reset with Georgia Mae Gibbs
For Georgia, wellbeing starts with the little things. Her daily reset is less about perfection and more about presence. Here are a few of her favourite ways to pause and recharge:
Mindful Mornings: Begin the day slowly, in nature if possible. No phone, no noise, just you and early morning sun. Whether it’s a few minutes of meditation or gentle breathwork, these quiet moments help ease the mind and set the tone of your day. Sometimes, stopping is the most productive thing we can do.
Hydration First: A big glass of water first thing (with a little slice of lemon) helps wake up the system, followed by a hearty breakfast and a warm cup of herbal tea to nourish and ground the body from the inside out.
Energising Skincare Ritual: Your daily skincare ritual is an invitation to pause, reconnect, and reset both skin and self. Herbal Recovery Bi-Phase Serum is the perfect way to energise tired skin. Used with the cooling facial Spoon, it becomes a sensorial experience that soothes the complexion and leaves skin feeling revitalised and radiant.
The Perfect Pick-Me-Up: For those late nights, long flights, or demanding days, reach for Herbal Recovery Eye Roll-On. The cooling roller helps to de-puff, hydrate and revitalise the eye area, making it the perfect companion for life on the go. Keep it in the fridge for an extra-soothing touch on warm days.
Intentional Movement: Movement is a form of mindfulness. It might be Pilates, a walk in nature, or stretching in the living room. It’s important to listen to your body, moving in tune with your energy levels and natural cycles.
Evening Ritual: Evenings are the perfect time to slow down, calm the nervous system and ease the mind. Begin by dimming the lights and lighting a calming candle or diffusing a gentle aromatherapy blend, something soft and grounding, to signal to the body that it’s time to unwind. Then take a few minutes to journal and reflect on the day.
These small practices are easy to implement into your everyday life, and over time, they become powerful tools to support your skin and sense of wellbeing.
