February 2020 natural beauty empties

Welcome to my February 2020 natural beauty empties! I’m late posting my used up products again and while I don’t have many empties for February, they’re all natural beauty products I’ve really enjoyed using. I’ve got anti-ageing face cream, illuminating vitamin C serum, nude lip gloss, gentle baby shampoo, soothing eye cream, zesty body oil, and a comforting buttermilk soap for the whole family. Read on to learn more! February 2020 natural beauty empties D’Alchemy Age Defence Broad-Spectrum Remedy This is a wonder of a cream, softening lines while deeply hydrating and I’m very sad to have emptied it! I reviewed it and other D’Alchemy moisturisers some months ago. The cream is great for normal to dry skin and “provides intensive skin regeneration, lightens up discolouration, fills up wrinkles, and prevents loss of firmness and density” – great news for me – this year I seem to look a lot…

Spring Hair Care Picks – What I’m Trying in March

Welcome back beauty lovers! In this post I introduce my spring hair care picks. Spring is a great time to refresh your hair care look and products. I’ve only just started to use these natural hair care products, so I’ll update you on how we got on in a later post or in my empties post. Let’s take a look! Spring hair care picks Tame the frizz with Rahua Cream Wax Humidity in the spring air can play havoc with our hair, causing frizz and making it hard to manage. Spring is the right time to keep it in check with a cream wax. Just look at that beautiful texture of Rahua Cream Wax. I’m already in love with this amazing smelling cream wax that’s suitable for all hair types. It’s made using Amazonian rainforest ingredients along with green tea and rosemary leaf extracts, and palo santo oil. This hair…

January 2020 natural beauty empties

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…

Stabilised Vitamin C Serum – Benefits & Use

Hi, beauty lover! It’s good to see you here! Last year I introduced a stabilised vitamin C serum into my daily routine. It’s made a huge difference to my skin. I experienced brighter and smoother skin with fewer age spots and freckles. And now I’m a dedicated daily vitamin C user! In this post, we’ll be discussing: All in line with your natural and organic sensibilities! Sound good? Great! But first… What is a stabilised vitamin C serum? Traditionally, vitamin C came to our skincare products as L-Ascorbic Acid (LAA, the synthetic and chemical name for vitamin C). Pure is good, right? Not always, and especially not for sensitive skin. LAA is potent, but unstable. It has the potential to cause irritation during an initial settling in period and beyond. If used incorrectly it can damage skin, and it might not be the best choice for people with the most…

August 2019 Natural Beauty Empties

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…

D’Alchemy skincare – age beautifully

In this post I’m excited to share my thoughts on a special skincare brand and 3 of their wonderful products. Introducing, D’Alchemy skincare.

The brand really tries to address the needs of ageing skin with breakthrough natural and organic anti-wrinkle skincare.

July 2019 Natural Beauty Empties

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…

Natural sunscreen for kids & families

As a mum to four little ones, I’ve used a lot of natural sunscreen for kids! From babies, to bigger kids – all tried and tested. And in this post I’m sharing the natural sunscreen for kids we’ve used the most. Step this way if high street and chemist store sunscreens irritate your children’s skin! My favourite natural sunscreens for kids are those that can be used for both adults and children. Packing just one tube saves valuable space in my bag, and a gentle mineral sunscreen works just fine for grown ups too! Peace of mind I’m using the gentlest sun protection there is. Oh, summer. We look forward to it all year, and then it’s over in a flash. But what memories we take away! Happy children playing on the beach, meals together, and whiling the day away lounging in comfy hammocks, if we’re lucky! But with extra UV…
