Supermodel and Victoria Secret Angel, Miranda Kerr revealed to Beauticate this week that ice cold showers were the secret to keeping her feeling and looking revitalised despite her busy schedule. Miranda stated that her beauty secret "feels so invigorating and is so good for your scalp and face. It really wakes you up".

Operations Manager, Natalie Hart shares the four reasons why you should share Miranda Kerr's Icy beauty secret and include cold therapy in your beauty regime:
- Healthy Looking Skin - Cold showers are one of the most natural ways to maintain healthy looking skin. Hot water tends to dry out the skin, while cold water tightens and seals, shrinking enlarged pores and preventing any excess sebum and dirt debris to clog the pores.
- Healthy Looking Hair - Cold water tends to make the hair stronger, shinier and healthier due to its 'sealing' effect. Cold water tightens and flattens the hair follicles on the scalp to prevent any excess dirt from getting in and increasing the ability for the hair to grip to the scalp.
- Improves Circulation - The natural shocking feel of cold water constricts the blood vessels allowing less blood to go to the surface of the skin. The body responds to this constriction by gradually sending an increased flow of warm blood to the area.
- Awaken the Body - The sharp intake of breath that comes with the feeling of cold water not only helps us to keep warm, but increases our overall oxygen intake. As a result of this, our heart rate increases and releases a rush of blood throughout the entire body giving us a natural dose of energy for the day.
