6 Things You Can Grow In 2 Weeks

Growing a garden is just one of the things you can do while you stay home for 2 weeks.

Growing a garden is just one of the things you can do while you stay home for 2 weeks.

  1. Lashes / Brows

Frivolous but such an easy win - just remember to apply iLash or iBrow growth serum daily! These ophthalmologically tested serums nourish lashes and brows and extend their anagen (growth) phase - giving hair more time to grow thicker, longer and stronger. Results can be seen in 2-3 weeks!

2. Plants

Always wanted to hone your green fingers - but always rushed out (going to be late for work!) before watering your plants - this is the perfect time to start your very first garden.

You can grow anything - flowers, herbs, vegetables… We’re fans of microgreens for speedy gratification. Bean Sprouts and Pea Shoots are super easy to grow and you can harvest them within a week!

3. Mindful

If you’re one hassled soul - take this period of enforced homestay to build up your mindfulness practice. Deep breathing, meditation and other mindfulness exercises might seem like a waste of time when you have so much to do and to worry about. But a few minutes of mindfulness a day can help us improve our quality of life and develop a clearer perspective so we can lead better and more meaningful lives. 

There are plenty of apps and tutorials online to help you start your practice. Check these out if you need inspiration:

4. Fairer

Another easy win, really! Sun worshippers might not relish this fact - but staying cooped up at home all day is bound to take your skin a few shades lighter. Unless you have been working by your window - without any sun protection, that is! The key is to make sure your skin tone is fair and even - not fair and sallow. So remember to keep skin hydrated, well exfoliated, and pamper yourself with a DIY face massage from time to time to improve glow and circulation. Check out more stay home skin tips here.

5. Fitter

Staying home cuts out the commute time - making it easy to use those extra hours for exercise. We hope you’ve been moving regularly and keeping fit at home! If not - you might be growing your waistlines instead of your muscles! Refer to our stay home fitness guide for home workout inspiration.

6. Skills

With so many online courses going on - this is a great time to pick up a new skill. If you’re stressed by how ‘serious’ this sounds - relax! Find something you’re passionate about and start there - this can be simple things like cooking, bread making, even calligraphy. Just enjoy the process of learning and who knows what it might lead to! 

Skillshare is an online learning community featuring experts from all walks of life holding classes that include cooking, photography, art, calligraphy … you name it! They’re currently offering 2 months of free subscription to their courses for new members - so it’s a good time to sign up and develop a new passion.
