Welcome back, beauty friend! And welcome to my April 2020 natural beauty empties. April was a great month for empties! I had chance to use up many more products because my husband is working from home and I have a little bit more time in the morning. Coronavirus lockdown – there are some benefits. Not only that, but I’ve been shopping my stash every week. This month I wanted to focus on using up my sample collection. The ultimate goal is to reduce the number of these little sachets coming in. Sample sachets are a terrible waste of packaging – there are better ways to get samples! So, future thinking applied. But a lot of my samples were running out of date, and I didn’t want to waste them. So I’ve been living like I’m on holiday, with lots of variety – it’s been fun! I also have lots of…
Here are my March 2020 natural beauty empties. Another month of empties, and how much life has changed since my last empties post. In the light of the Coronavirus pandemic, my post about skincare empties seems trivial, but I’m finding solace in my skincare and carrying on my blog as normal. And you know what? Taking care of my skin is still incredibly important to me! It’s pretty much my rock. In March, I used up hydrating day cream, silky tinted lip balm, a zesty lemon hand smoothie for sore hands, tea tree balm, and lemongrass & chamomile soap. Enjoy! Natural beauty empties Lumen Vitae Ray of Light Day Cream I was kindly sent Ray of Light Day Cream and others in the Lumen Vitae range to try. This soothing cream took me no time to use up – I loved it. It’s hydrating and calming, perfect for wearing in…
My January 2020 natural beauty empties marks 2 whole years of writing about my empties! I really love creating empties posts. I get to share all the lovely skincare that I enjoyed enough to finish up, but might not have had chance to review in a separate post. And it has been a bumper month for using up lots of delicious natural and organic skincare products. I present probiotic serum, age-defying body cream, daily moisturiser for eczema, natural haircare, natural makeup, and much more! So let’s get started rooting through my empties box! January 2020 natural beauty empties Esse Plus Probiotic Serum Have you tried probiotic skincare before? It’s recommended by many dermatologists, since our skin is dependent on the balance of good and bad microbes living on and in the skin. What’s the hype with probiotic skincare? Research has shown that probiotic skincare can protect our skin from bad…
Time for my November 2019 natural beauty empties! Welcome back natural skincare lovers! I have but a measly array of natural skincare empties for you this month. But don’t be dismayed! What this month’s empties lacks in quantity, it makes up for in quality. This month you will find my all time favourite balm to milk cleanser, a delightful orange shea butter balm, grime-busting charcoal soap, rich but light hand cream, uplifting bath salts, soothing labour massage oil, and a handful of travel size and sample empties. Enjoy my November empties! Natural beauty empties oMoi Moringa & Cherry Cleansing Balm After trying oMoi skincare a few months ago, this cleansing balm quickly became a firm favourite. I absolutely love the balm to milk format that just seems to melt makeup away, deep cleansing with rich oils and clays. oMoi Moringa & Cherry Cleansing Balm Buy Now – £41 at oMoi…
Welcome to my October 2019 natural beauty empties! It’s been an average month for empties this month. I’ve been busy testing all the beautiful lip balms for the Clean Beauty Awards 2019, which has been so much fun with a bit of testing routine thrown in. I’ll be posting my review of all the entrants in a separate post some time soon. There’s volumising shampoo, cream cleanser, hydrating face cream, body butter, pawpaw balm, green tea shower gel, plus 3 travel size products. Please feel free to ask me anything about the products, I’d love to hear from you. October 2019 natural beauty empties Rahua Voluminous Conditioner I reviewed this luxury Rahua Voluminous conditioner a few months ago. I enjoyed it to the last drop. It does a good job at moisturising hair without weighing it down. Rahua Voluminous Conditioner Buy Now – £36 at Rahua Botanicals Nourish Cream Cleanser…
There’s so much excitement for my blog this month! And I have quite a few empties for you, too. The biggest news is that I’ve been selected as a judge for the 2019 Clean Beauty Awards. More on that in a later post. For now let’s get stuck into my September 2019 natural beauty empties! There’s floral water, cream bath, postpartum products, sunscreen, exfoliator, body moisturiser, deodorant, toy sanitiser, bath salts, and several travel and sample size products. I hope you enjoy them, and do let me know if you have any questions about the products or my routine. Natural beauty empties Alteya Organics Chamomile Water We all love this chamomile water. It’s like summer in a bottle and we didn’t want it to end! It was a great addition to the April 2019 LoveLula Beauty Box! Alteya make such good floral waters, some of the best. Chamomile is calming,…
August 2019 natural beauty empties – empties much? This month, we used a mountain of products up! And the star product is a beautiful face oil that has brought me a daily glow since Cara’s birth. There’s also shampoo, balms, 2 rose waters, face cream, body lotion, essential oil, and a serum, along with a handful of travel and sample sizes. I hope you enjoy my empties. Natural beauty empties Myroo Skin Boost Serum This little beauty was so kindly gifted by the lovely founder of Myroo, to take in my hospital bag when I had Cara. I’ve enjoyed it almost every day since then! I love everything about it. The fragrance, the way it makes my skin feel, and the glow it brings. It contains rosehip oil plus borage, starflower, and raspberry seed oils to protect against wear and tear and help skin maintain its moisture levels. Rahua Voluminous…
It’s time for my July 2019 natural beauty empties! I do love sharing my empties. There’s something so satisfying about finishing a natural beauty product to the last drop. I love recapping it all, and I hope you might find something you like amongst the treasure trove of items. I’ve used up quite a few products this month. I had a huge sort out of my stash which was very rewarding. We also bought new bathroom storage, which prompted a resurfacing of some close-to-empty products to finish up. My favourite product this month is a special skin treatment called bakuchiol. It’s an amazing replacement for retinol that’s safer for mamas who are pregnant or breastfeeding. There’s also a luscious balm, rose water, adult and kids toothpaste, epsom salts, face mask powder, body lotion, and face cream and mineral powder samples. I hope you enjoy my empties, and if you have…
Welcome to my June 2019 natural beauty empties! It’s been a quiet month for skincare in June. I’ve stepped down from receiving LoveLula boxes and credits for the time being so I can blog about my children and relax more once my bairns are in bed. It’s sad, but I had to prioritise. So, on to this month’s empties, which my kiddies have dominated. My favourite product this month is a very special children’s lotion that’s great for all the family. If you have an itchy skin condition, you need to try this one. There’s also a hair and body wash, rose oil hand cream, dragon fruit bubble bath, creamy body wash, and a liquid organic foundation sample. I hope you enjoy my June empties! Natural beauty empties Odylique Baby Repair Lotion This is a rich and soothing lotion with cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil, aloe vera to heal, bio-active…
In this post I share my May 2019 natural beauty empties. Weleda feature in most of my empties posts – they’re one of my favourite natural beauty brands. This month my favourite empty is their wonderful Age Revitalising Concentrate – it’s such a star product! Also from Weleda is their Skin Food Light, and creamy body washes. Other empties include bubble bath from Sophie the Giraffe, natural deodorant from Elsa’s, Odylique face moisturiser, tinted lip balm from Burt’s Bees, and a handful of samples. Enjoy my empties! Natural beauty empties Weleda Evening Primrose Age Revitalising Concentrate This is a lovely lightweight serum to use under moisturiser as an anti-aging treatment. Evening primrose in the serum helps stimulate skin’s natural protective and regenerative abilities – perfect as I head towards 40!
