Hello, my dear empties lover! Welcome to my October 2021 natural beauty empties! This is the first post I’ve made since our daughter, Lydia Evelyn, arrived. My kids helped me with the photography this month, and they’ve had lots of fun building “pumpkin patches” indoors while I feed the baby. There may be less time to enjoy skincare in the time immediately after welcoming a new baby, but the emphasis is very much on a basic skincare routine that’s fast, simple, yet comforting. So this month, you’ll find a creamy and gentle facial wash, the dry body oil I enjoyed in the last few days of pregnancy, and a refreshing lemon deodorant. My kids used up a gorgeous natural baby oil. Enjoy my October empties!

Hello again, my empties lover! And welcome to my March 2021 natural beauty empties. This month I have a short but sweet empties list for you! I’m sharing an uplifting citrus body wash and bubble bath that’s brought me great joy over the last few months. There’s also a soothing winter botanical mist, rosy cleansing gel, leave in conditioning spray, and more! Enjoy my March 2021 natural beauty empties! March 2021 natural beauty empties Kathleen Citrus Cheer Bubble Bath & Shower Gel This was my first Kathleen product. I loved it, and I’d really like to try more from Kathleen! It came in the LoveLula June 2020 Beauty Box. I used it mostly in the shower as I find it hard to make time for baths. It’s quite thin as a shower gel and the screw format bottle would definitely be easier in the bath, but oh my – the…

Hello again, my friend! Welcome to my January 2021 natural beauty empties. What to say about January? The lockdown, supporting my husband working from home, worrying about all our health – it takes its toll. But skincare, as usual, is a beautiful distraction and – we had snow! It was so good to frolic in the white stuff, have fun, and forget about lockdown, just for one day. This month, I used up a beautiful gel cleanser, all-in-one balm, ginseng face tonic, and more. My littles used up a gentle hydrating body lotion and a baby sleep rollerball. I hope you find my January empties helpful! January 2021 natural beauty empties D’Alchemy Purifying Facial Cleanser One of my favourite gel cleansers. It’s great during times of hormonal breakouts since it mildly exfoliates and contains soothing ingredients. I really love the softly foaming texture and the orange and vanilla scent. You…

Welcome back, my empties lover – and happy Halloween to you! It’s time for my October 2020 natural beauty empties. I love October because so many exciting things happen in nature – it is a time of shedding the old to make way for the new. My skincare too, changes with the season. I use a more deeply hydrating moisturiser, and pull out my cosiest of balms. You will find this reflected in my empties. There’s a beautiful natural deodorant – my favourite yet in fact, a deeply hydrating night cream, nourishing moringa cleansing oil, SPF20 day cream, and more. For little people, there’s fun throwable hand and face foam, and a sleepy time foot oil for bedtime relaxation. Fall in love with my October empties!

Welcome back, beauty lover! And welcome to my September 2020 natural beauty empties. September has been a whirlwind of trying new natural beauty products and reviewing them. Somehow, I managed to find time to use up many fantastic clean beauty products, too. My favourites this month include a divine facial oil, hand therapy cream, pore refining acid wash, and anti-bac hand sanitiser. For the littles, there’s a gorgeous skin-friendly baby balm. I hope you enjoy my September empties! September 2020 natural beauty empties Antipodes Divine Face Oil This facial oil truly lives up to its name. I had it sitting on my shelf for a while after featuring it in my 2018 natural beauty stocking fillers. But once I tried it again, I couldn’t get enough! Impressively, it claims to boost the skin’s natural production of collagen and elastin by up to 51%. Essential fatty acids keep skin strong while…

Hi, lovely humans! Today I’m sharing 3 of the plastic free wellbeing and beauty picks I made this month. We’re still in plastic free July, and while I’m not able to promise a completely plastic free July, I am making steps in the right direction with some plastic free beauty and health swaps I intend to follow in July and beyond. And I can enjoy these beauties guilt free, since they all reduce plastic packaging. I’ve got magical and chilled out Magic Cocoa with ashwaganda and reishi mushroom from ZOJO Beauty Elixirs, soothing Humble Natural Beauty Rose & Frankincense Bath Honey, and an anti-ageing day cream from Sukin that promises to reduce wrinkles in just 14 days! So let’s take a look at what I picked up! Plastic free picks ZOJO Beauty Elixirs Magic Cocoa Since trying Blooming Blends earlier this month, I’ve become interested in the herb ashwaganda. In a nutshell,…

Hi beauty lovers! Have you heard of Plastic Free July? Plastic Free July is a movement to reduce the amount of plastic waste we produce. The challenge is to refuse single use plastics in July. As a family, we are mindful of the impact of our plastic waste and have been reducing single use plastics for some time. But there’s still huge room for improvement. The most offending single use plastics we still use as a family are without a doubt wet wipes and disposable nappies. I know how harmful they are for the environment, but sometimes getting through life with little kids seems more important. Can you relate? How does this help you? Maybe you’re in the same position as me. We can’t promise a plastic free July, but we can make a start implementing some changes for life. This is what it’s all about! …The truth is that…
