With our tonic recipe, you can use it to make enough for one serving, however we recommend making a big batch and keeping it in your refrigerator, ready for whenever you want it. We love using this tonic as an alcohol-free, skin enhancing mocktail too!

In today's Beauty Insider Feature, Omayma interviews Makeup Artist & Lymphatic Specialist Hadia Kabir! Hadia's work has been seen from the runway shows of Chanel & Celine, to the pages of PAPER magazine. As a Lymphatic Specialist, she works at the most prestigious Ricari Studios in Los Angeles. 

It is with great pleasure to share the first in our blog series of beauty insider stories with some of the incredible people Omayma has worked with as a Celebrity Makeup Artist. 

Today, we interview the incredible Elisa Sednaoui Dellal who has taken her voice as a phenomenal and inspiring Social Entrepreneur.

It is with so much joy that we got to work in partnership with the Funtasia Egypt Foundation, by Elisa Sednaoui. In November last year, we gave 10% of our proceeds to the Foundation.

"We work to establish creative learning spaces focused on arts education to help children and youth explore and embrace innovation and diversity through hands-on experiences in an atmosphere of playfulness and acceptance."

In Luxor, Egypt, the Elisa Sednaoui Foundation run weekly after-school classes and creative learning workshops to inspire and prepare children and youth. 

Giving back to our communities and the leaders of tomorrow is something we are very passionate and proud to have been part of.

Typically when you hear the words "oil" and "skin" you might begin to worry. But in actual fact, the right face oil can put you on the road to the most radiant complexion. Facial Oils can not only work wonders on a large number of skin woes (calming, brightening, healing), but also can take your skin from dull to dazzling. 

Getting your nutrients in can be tough at times, and for those of us on the go, a deliciously refreshing smoothie can be the perfect solution. 

Here at omayma skin, we believe that what we put both on our bodies as well as in our bodies, does make a difference, and we love getting creative with what we eat to extend our skin ritual. 

Here's our founder Omayma's go-to Radiance Smoothie recipe:

Facial Gua Sha is an ancient Chinese healing technique that uses a pebble or stone to stimulate the skin (Gua – scraping), boost blood circulation (Sha – redness) and encourages skin to heal itself.

Scraping the skin (using jade or rose quartz stone) helps treat all sorts of ailments to promote clear skin, banish fine lines and wrinkles, and sculpt the face for a firmer look. In actual fact, in doing Gua Sha you create a very minor and controlled skin trauma (being the redness), which stimulates blood flow, new collagen production and while shifting puffiness.
