Alteya Organics – care for mama and baby

Have you heard of Alteya Organics before? If so, you’ll know they’re a wonderful family-owned Bulgarian brand with a focus on rose-based organic natural beauty products. If not, as an ambassador for the brand, I can’t wait to tell you all about them and their lovely products. Alteya Organics provide caring natural beauty products for mamas and their babies. The range includes face care, body care, sunscreens, nappy cream, and of course their wonderful rose water. Dermatology-grade flower essences in the products harness the therapeutic properties and synergy of plants. All products are Natrue or USDA certified, so you can be sure you’re getting organic and natural. I love that the brand grows and harvests their own roses, lavender, chamomile, and calendula. They have a distillery and manufacturing facility in the heart of The Rose Valley in Bulgaria where they distill organic rose oil and gorgeous flower waters using techniques…

The Rose Tree De-Stress Body Oil review

Regular readers of my blog will know I’m a huge fan of The Rose Tree natural beauty products. So far I’ve tried their Radiance Facial Essence and Intensive Balm. Recently, the brand launched a range of luxury body oils – I’ve been trying The Rose Tree De-Stress Body Oil with Juniper and Grapefruit.

Here’s a quick introduction to The Rose Tree De-Stress Body Oil from The Rose Tree: Disclosure: I received The Rose Tree De-Stress Body Oil to review by The Rose Tree. My opinions are honest and my own. A luxuriously scented, light yet nourishing dry body oil which leaves skin subtly scented and silky soft, made with 92% organic ingredients.

CHOBS sheet masks review

Do you like sheet masks? I do! Have you tried CHOBS sheet masks before? They’re fast becoming my favourite sheet masks yet. In case you haven’t heard of CHOBS before, they’re a South Korean organic and natural beauty company. CHOBS = Charm and Health Organic Beauty Store. K-Beauty is a real big thing right now, but it’s so hard to find natural and certified organic Korean beauty. This is why I love CHOBS so much. Their products are Ecocert and Cosmos certified, vegan, and cruelty-free. You can really trust the ingredients and formulations to be high quality and safe. The sheets themselves are pure Tencel sheets, made using sustainably sourced wood by environmentally responsible processes. Disclosure: I received CHOBS sheet masks to try by CHOBS, but my opinions are honest and my own. When I heard from CHOBS UK I was so honoured to be offered the chance to try their…

How to nourish your child through cleaner beauty

Let’s talk about a subject very close to my heart – how to nourish your child through cleaner beauty. As parents, we naturally want the best for our children, and there are so many choices to make. From food, clothing, toys, education, whether or not to vaccinate – the list is endless and often overwhelming, especially for first time parents. I feel the choices we make about what skincare products to use, and how we use them, are important. We can nourish our children through our skincare choices, and reduce the chemical burden we place on them. But wait, I hear you say – I don’t want more choices! As a busy parent, there’s no time to make lots of complicated or overwhelming ingredient checks. I hear you, honestly. Since I fell pregnant with Jonah in 2015, I’ve spent plenty of time scrutinising ingredients to ensure nothing harmful works its…
