[Misc] Self-care packages for health care workers!

Beauty Tips For Body Care
Health care workers are on the front lines of the COVID-19 fight, putting their health and safety on the line to help others. We can help support them! Inspired by this thread, the ScA mods are letting me host a “Self-Care for Health Care” care package matchup! Here’s how it will work:IF YOU ARE A HEALTH CARE WORKER: PM me your address, as well as a pic of your work badge next to your username handwritten on a piece of paper. (Here’s a guide to private Imgur uploading if you need it.) I’ll only share your first name and address* with someone who wants to send you a care package.IF YOU WANT TO HELP: Either comment below that you’d like to help (please include your country so we can match you up with someone relatively close to keep postal costs down) or PM me. What should you send? Well, we’re in ScA so skincare is definitely appreciated! Also hand lotion, lip balm, snacks – basically anything to help health care workers take care of themselves! Here are a few of the comments from healthcare workers in the original thread to get you thinking (there’s some great product ideas in there too):"My face is suffering from 12 hour shifts of masks and goggles. My coworker bestie and I have been trying to find ways to take care of our skin (and hair from the high buns and constant washing) the best we can, but it’s tough!”“My hands are so dry from gloves and washing that they’re peeling.”"My hands are constantly cracking from the hand sanitizer and my nose is constantly raw and red from out plastic face shields.”To start, it’ll just be me matching health care workers up with supporters. This is a new endeavor for me, so please be patient as I learn and tweak the process to get the most people involved as possible! *Please note, ScA doesn’t have the resources or wherewithal to vet potential exchangers. Giving out personal info online (including addresses) should be thought over carefully.
