Slow Beauty Rituals: how to romanticise your shower with natural skincare

At Slowly Golden Store, we believe the most powerful self-care moments are the quietest ones. That’s why we’re here to help you slow down, reconnect, and romanticise the everyday.. starting with your shower.

If you’re searching for a way to bring more calm and intention into your routine, a few drops of our natural shower oil (NZ made) might be all it takes.

The ritual of a shower: more than just a wash

We often rush through showers, treating them as functional rather than beautiful. But what if your shower became a daily act of self-devotion?

With the Beauty Engine Shower Oil, your rinse transforms into a slow beauty ritual - one that nourishes your skin, supports your nervous system, and reminds you to breathe.

The warm steam. The scent of mānuka honey. The feeling of soft, hydrated skin.
This is what natural skincare in New Zealand should feel like.

Why we love Beauty Engine Shower Oil (and you will too)

Made here in Aotearoa, the Beauty Engine Sweet Almond & Mānuka Honey MGO 100 Shower Oil is a skincare staple for anyone wanting to embrace slow, conscious living.

How to create your own slow shower ritual

Whether it's morning or night, here’s how to turn your shower into a ceremony:

  1. Set the tone with gentle lighting or a calming playlist

  2. Let the water warm your skin and soften your breath

  3. Massage the oil gently into damp skin

  4. Close your eyes and be present - even for just 60 seconds

  5. After drying off, seal in the glow with your favourite moisturiser or our best-selling body butter.

Want to take it even further? Add aromatherapy, journaling, or stretch gently afterwards. The goal is to reconnect with yourself.. slowly.

Why we romanticise the everyday

At Slowly Golden, we know that beauty isn’t just found in big milestones. It’s in the cup of tea, the golden light, the soft towel after a shower. It’s in presence, pause, and the products that help us tune into that.

This is slow beauty. This is natural skincare from New Zealand, made with care and intention.

Make your next shower feel like a love letter to yourself.
