Welcome back, beauty lover! Do you love all-natural candles? I do! And today, the spotlight is on the beautiful and sleep inducing Kiss The Moon Peace Candle with Vanilla and Rosewood! This candle is designed to comfort the soul and leave a sense of contentment before bed. By now I am sure you understand my love for Kiss The Moon.

Vetiver skincare – 3 earthy & grounding beauty products to try

Welcome back, my dear friend! Today I’m focusing on vetiver skincare! Have you heard of vetiver before? You’ve probably seen vetiver oil mentioned in ingredients lists. Its INCI listing is vetiveria zizanoides. Vetiver is a perennial grass similar to other fragrant grasses such as lemongrass, citronella and palmarosa. It’s native to India, and its major producers include Haiti, India, Indonesia, and Réunion. (source: Wikipedia) Its essential oil is derived from its fibrous roots which are cleaned, dried and distilled to produce the oil. (source: Soil) What does vetiver smell like? To me, it’s warm, earthy, green, woody, and smoky. It’s a bit like a plant hug from some ancient tree in a damp forest. Vetiver is a traditionally masculine fragrance. Its grounding notes draw me in and comfort me; perfect in these times of uncertainty. By treesftf – CC BY 2.0 Think you haven’t experienced vetiver before? You’re likely mistaken.…

January 2021 natural beauty empties

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…

Face oils for winter: 3 of the best for happy skin

Hello again, skincare lover! Today I want to talk about using face oils for winter skincare. Winter is a troublesome time for skin. But it’s not just the cold temperature that bites. Dry winter air robs skin of vital moisture, leading to dehydration. Sadly, problems like eczema and psoriasis are worsened in colder months. But adding a face oil to your winter routine morning and night protects and nourishes your skin. It can improve and strengthen the skin barrier so that skin is better defended from the elements. And what’s more, face oils address specific skin concerns. For dry skin, using a face oil regularly can reduce dry patches and minimise fine lines. For acne prone skin, face oils can help calm the inflammation. And all skins benefit from the anti-ageing benefits of face oils. Sounds worth it, right? So, let’s talk about 3 of my very favourite face oils…
