As the unsung superheroes of our society, NHS Doctors & nurses work round the clock to look after our health not just this year but every single day. From working long hours to unsociable night shifts, many members of healthcare put our health before their own.

As I'm on nights the next couple days I thought I would write up some of my night shift tips 🌼 • A few of you have asked for some advice before doing your first ever nights 😴 • So this is just a few 💛

When scraping your hair back for hygienic necessities, to working long hours through the night, your hair and skin can suffer tremendously. Causing dry & brittle hair along with a dull and tired complexion. 

But Eloise shows us how to look after yourself when working such a high demanding job and bring some confidence back into an exhausted body. 

"As a nurse I know personally how badly night shifts and long hours effects not only our minds but our bodies. Self care for us nurses is SO important. Long shifts, especially nights have a massive impact on my skin and also my hair. I get spots galore, bags under my eyes and my hair just feels gross🤦‍♀️."

"So the amazing @giveme.cosmeticscosmetics #gifted me with these amazing 3 items, just in time for finishing nights and having a lush weekend off😍"

"So firstly I used the eye patches, I left these on for 15-20 minutes, they feel so cool and refreshing and my bags looked SO much better after!"

"Next I tried the Chill Out face mask and this was honestly lush, I lay myself down and left on for 30 minutes, this feels cool on the face and leaves your skin feeling so nice after. The mask and the eye patches post night shift was the ultimate relaxation and refresh time to make myself feel more human again 💆‍♀️"                 

"And finally, the hair mask. This is argan oil and coconut, omg the smell is unreal! Apply to towel dried hair and leave on for 20 mins. Then dry as normal. This is honestly the best hair mask I have ever used! My hair feels amazing after and looks the best it's ever looked. I'm squeezing as many uses out of this as I can."

"I would highly recommend all 3 of these products, especially to my fellow nurses, having a bit of pampering and you time is vital in keeping you at your best self. In a busy and stressful job like ours these are so easy to use and totally worth the feeling afterwards. I will definitely add these products to my self care routine!
Thanks for your amazing products @giveme.cosmetics"
