May 2022 natural beauty empties

Hello, my beautiful friend! And welcome to my May 2022 natural beauty empties.

Advert: this post contains references to PR gifted products. My views are honest and my own. May contain affiliate links.

I’m writing this a bit ahead of time as we’re moving in the last week of May. And I took my photographs hurriedly amongst all the clutter and chaos of our house move.

In May, I used up some very lovely products, and lots of them, including a soothing oat and charcoal cream, coconut deodorant, olive oil lipstick, and more.

I can’t wait to share them with you, so let’s dive right in!

May 2022 natural beauty empties

Zoe Bee Charcoal & Oat Cream

Zoe Bee Charcoal & Oat Cream helps Lydia’s skin so much! The poor thing has suffered with eczema since being tiny, but this waterless cream soothes and calms it with daily use.

Zoe Bee Charcoal & Oat Cream

A definite repurchase. And I can’t wait to try Zoe’s other creams.

Kopari Beauty Beach Deodorant

This deodorant blew me away and has been consistently effective. It’s also lasted me at least 4 months.

Kopari Beauty Beach Deodorant

My clever hubbie bought it for me for Christmas last year. I’m definitely going to try more from Kopari!

Ere Perez Olive Oil Lipstick in High Tea

This Ere Perez Olive Oil Lipstick has been my favourite spring/summer lipstick for a couple of years.

Ere Perez Olive Oil Lipstick in High Tea

I love the bright, well pigmented colour and the comfortable moisturising lip feel. It’s on the mushy side though, and gets a bit messy towards the end of its life.

Typology Nourishing Body Scrub

This Typology Body Scrub is a real treasure. Super effective grains are suspended in a gorgeous thick jelly fragranced with lavandin essential oil.

Typology Nourishing Body Scrub

The beauty of a scrub leaves me with super soft skin that’s well moisturised for the rest of the day.

I have so much love for this conditioner and, in fact, all John Masters products I’ve tried.

The conditioner leaves my dry and colour treated hair soft and well cared for.

EarthWise Beauty Nap in the Meadow Serum

This serum was gifted to me by a dear friend. I had high hopes for it. Nap in the Meadow promises deep hydration, anti-inflammatory effects, anti-aging benefits, and refreshment. Its ingredients include turmeric, yarrow, and blue chamomile.

EarthWise Beauty Nap in the Meadow Serum

I wish I could tell you how much I love this serum, as I really love the brand’s story and use of natural ingredients – I find the website almost magical to peruse and read about the use of plants, minerals, essences, etc.

However, although refreshing and hydrating, I didn’t immediately fall in love with it to the degree I thought I would. But, the ingredients are amazing and I love how it’s been formulated. I’m so curious about EarthWise Beauty, and I have a few other products of theirs in my collection.


Anita Grant Monoi de Tahiti Oil

This Monoi de Tahiti oil is amazing. It is so very fragrant. I use it for all kinds of things – as a hair mask and de-frizzer, and just lately in my latest batch of deodorant clay.

Anita Grant Monoi de Tahiti Oil

Fun fact: it takes no less than 200 Tahitian gardenias macerated in pure Tahitian virgin coconut oil to make 1 litre of Monoi de Tahiti.

I highly recommend checking out Anita Grant’s website for all kinds of beauty ingredients.

My hair has grown so much since finishing a 3 month course. Definitely check out my full review for all the details on treating any kind of hair loss with these gummies.

Terre Verdi GoodOils Cleansing Oil

If you’re looking for a traditional cleansing oil that’s both effective and gentle, then this is your oil! I love how it shifts even the boldest makeup while never stinging my eyes.

I reviewed it with Terre Verdi Orange Coffee Face Mask, so do head over for a read. You can take 15% off any Terre Verdi product using my code NatBeautyWBaby15.

VitalTouch Natalia Labour Massage Oil

Just before Lydia I arrived, I stocked up on Natalia pregnancy and labour products. They’re truly helpful at this special but challenging time.

VitalTouch Natalia Labour Massage Oil

The massage oil with clary sage and jasmine was a great companion while I was in labour. It’d make a great gift for a mum to be.

Organyc Sweet Caress Organic Cotton Baby Wipes

In my last post, I reviewed several cotton products for mama and baby from Organyc.

These baby wipes are so strong and caring, and were the first to go – we loved them!

Lyonsleaf Zinc & Calendula Cream

Lydia enjoyed this soothing multipurpose cream with zinc, mostly on her bottom but also on other areas affected by moisture, like her chubby leg folds.

Lyonsleaf Zinc & Calendula Cream

The only downside to this cream is that it’s not as convenient as those in a tube, however, it’s easy to use and works so well to soothe and protect the skin. I featured it with other family skincare for winter.

Biossance Squalane + BHA Pore Minimising Toner

This gorgeous toner with nourishing squalane and exfoliating BHA came in the 2021 Biossance Advent Calendar.

Biossance Squalane + BHA Pore Minimising Toner

It’s gentle enough for daily use, keeps my skin clear, and smells great too.

VitalTouch Natalia Moisturising Hand Sanitiser

A lovely hand sanitiser from Natalia.

Mummy Loves Organics Melting Body Candle

These melting body candles contain therapeutic levels of essential oil and are tailored to specific concerns such as hormone balancing and aiding sleep.

Mummy Loves Organics Melting Body Candle

I kept mine next to the bath to help me unwind. I never got around to using it on my body, but I may well invest in another to try!

I love JOIK candles! They’re so well fragranced and comforting.

JOIK Vanille et Noisette Candle

This one is as sweet as can be. I wish they were still available at LoveLula – I’d often pop one in my basket when buying skincare.

Lyonsleaf Beauty Balm

I bought this for my hospital bag when going in with Lydia.

Lyonsleaf Beauty Balm

The balm itself is gorgeous and has multiple uses, which saved me a ton of space in my bag. The kit comes with a cloth so you can give oil cleansing a try.

Organyc Nursing Pads

I bought these ages ago, and these nursing pads from Organyc have since been discontinued.

Organyc Nursing Pads

I have to say, they were a little on the small side and would often drop out of place leaving me damp. I’ve since switched to washable nursing pads.

Ayumi Turmeric & Bergamot Face Mask

A perfectly adequate face mask to dry up blemishes and keep skin soft.

Ayumi Turmeric & Bergamot Face Mask

Illiyoon Ultra Repair Lotion

This heavy duty Korean cream certainly hydrates and deeply moisturises.

Illiyoon Ultra Repair Lotion

Due to the size of the bottle and the fragrance, however, I was really pleased to finish it up and move on to something else.

Final thoughts on May 2022 natural beauty empties

That’s it for my May 2022 natural beauty empties! I hope you enjoyed seeing what I used up. I’m not going to make any apologies for my messy and briefly edited photos!

Next month, I’m reviewing skincare from the wonderful Raven Botanicals and mother and baby treats from InLight Beauty. It’s Jonah’s 6th birthday, so I’ll be sharing my birthday letter to him. I’ve been taking Thrive Supplements over the last few weeks, so expect my thoughts on that.

What did you use and love in May? Let me know in the comments!

See you next month!
