A MOMENT FOR MUM WITH: LISA WIPFLI
Tell us, what are your 5 cannot-live-without beauty products?
- The Rationale 1-6 skincare range (I can't pick one!)
- and of course PEARL Collagen Powder to tick off my ingestible beauty
Is there a skin treatment you prioritise to make you feel your best?
Absolutely. I've tried a lot of different products, but the one that gives the most instant visible results is IPL which I have done at The Clinic in Bondi Junction.
Of course something I prioritise every single day is my religious skincare routine. I will never miss doing this routine, day or night. No matter how tired or busy I am, this is a ritual that will never be skipped.
What is one ritual you do either daily / weekly or monthly to unwind and tune back into you?
I have to walk most mornings, albeit I can only do it on the treadmill as the children are still in bed. This is my one time of the day that I get 'me time' to clear my thoughts and get me re-focused for the day.
I also do fortnightly reflexology to calm my nervous system. This has done wonders for me over the past year.
Could you share the foods you prioritise for optimal skin health?
I try to incorporate baby spinach in my diet most days. I like to hide it in my smoothie along with blueberries, both of which are so good for the skin.
What is your PEARL ritual?
I have a double PEARL Ritual on a daily basis. In the morning at around 9am, I will have a double shot almond latte with two heaped spoonfuls of PEARL and then in the afternoon around 2.30pm when I start to get that afternoon lag, I will make myself a Matcha PEARL. I have mine with boiling water as I don't often feel like a milky drink in the afternoon, but it's also very delicious with milk.
Do you have any wellness rituals you practice regularly?
Wellness is a word that gets thrown around alot now, and I think our mind always runs to a health retreat, or an ice bath, but some of the smallest daily rituals can be seen as 'wellness'. My wellness ritual before bed every night is to roll The Goodnight co 'Goodnight blend' on my pulse areas and I follow this with a guided meditation for 5 minutes. I also read religiously every night for at least 20 minutes. We also have an infrared sauna in our home which I absolutely love. It's remarkable how much better I sleep after having a sauna. I try to have a sauna at least once a week to detox my body and calm my nervous system.
If you could only pick one, what is your favourite element about being a mother?
The undivided love we have for each other. When they say 'I love you' and give you the biggest hug, nothing else matters in the world. I hope they feel that same feeling when we hug.
