Struggling with dry lips? Discover the root causes, and learn effective solutions to achieve soft and healthy looking lips.

Meet Amalie Reedtz-Thott, Mother Nature Nurse, Founder of Nurture Vitaviva and mother of two - a woman we feel inspired by because of her holistic view on life. With a special love for meditation, yoga, breathwork, movements and consistency in life in the form of rituals, we have asked Amalie of her daily ritual.

Movement, sunlight, towel rubbing, breathing exercises and cold baths are today considered quite common elements in wellness but at the turn of the 20th century this wasn’t common knowledge.

It’s hard to avoid seeing the face of Hanni Gohr when you get hit by Karmameju’s images - whether it’s on a sign in the airport or on our Instagram. Hanni is a muse we get inspired by. Now, you can get to know “The face of Karmameju” in this interview - and last but not least, get her very best skincare rituals.

25 minutes SLEEP WELL RITUAL. A recipe for evening spa. Set the mood with your favorite aroma; incense stick, scent diffuser or scented candle and bring a cup of warm tea to the bathroom. Turn your preferred relaxing playlist on from ‘Karmameju Skincare’ on Spotify.

A recipe to welcome the new sunny season. Roll gently out of bed, open a window and breathe in the crispy spring air. Mindfully reach for the sun by stretching your body. Maybe do a Sun Salutation yoga pose to welcome the new day.

Hydration for sun-kissed skin. Make yourself a cool and hydrating drink. We recommend to drink Gel water or Electrolyte water with lime, Himalaya salt and sugar when our bodies crave water the most. Both are said to be deeply stabilizing for the body’s hydration levels.

Get to know the founder behind Roxy ceramics better in this interview, and hear Rosanna share how she made her passion her way of living.
