LUI Ritual: Sophie McIntyre
Here at LUI, we love the idea of rituals: those little everyday practices that help you feel calm, centred and whole. We believe shaving deserves to be part of this self-care routine. In celebration of mindful moments, the LUI Ritual series asks friends of the brand about their own positive habits and how they elevate their day.

THROUGHOUT MY DAY I FIND JOY IN… the rhythm of the life/business I’ve built. Club Sup hopefully betters people's lives and that is what I get to do for a living; it never fails to impress me.
MY LUNCH ORDER IS… a chopped salad with whatever I have in the fridge and a tin of tuna or some sort of left over protein. I prep roasted veggies at the start of the week for WFH salads.
MY 3PM PICK-ME-UP IS… a very strong but milky English breakfast tea and some sort of bickie.
AFTER A LONG DAY I SWITCH OFF BY… reading my Kindle, no screens.
THE LAST BOOK I COULDN’T PUT DOWN… You Are Here by David Nicholls. It was the most uplifting read about life, loneliness, and how things happen to you that encourage you to shut off from the world. Then on the flipside it teaches you that you can open up to amazing things in life just as easily as you shut them out. Life really is what you make it.
MY NIGHTTIME ROUTINE IS…
1. A quick walk to create some separation between the work day at home and evening.
2. Delete my Instagram off my phone.
3. Cook something yummy for dinner.
4. Eat at the table with my boyfriend. We always light a candle and make a meal of it.
5. Make a tea and get on the couch with a show or book.
THE LAST THING I DO BEFORE BED IS… an extra strength sleepy time tea.
