Best Clean Beauty Product Winners

January 29, 2022 No Comments

Hi everyone! Sorry I have been absent from the blog the last while. I have had sooo much going on. I have moved house, started a full time French course and been up to my eyes with everything. All I can say is, I am delighted to finally get back to my beloved blog! To be honest, my PC crashed back in October and I have had the hardest time trying to organise everything. Finally!

Well it is about time that I announce the best clean beauty product winners from the Clean Beauty Awards. I have had this in the back of my mind for ages. One of the most exciting times of the year for me is when I get to be a judge for the awards. Honestly, clean beauty and eco friendly living is something I am so passionate about. That is why I set up my blog around seven years ago. To be involved in the judging of these fab natural products is a real honour. read more

Some inspiring and eco friendly ideas of what to do with old makeup!

Did you know that the European cosmetics industry is worth 77 billion Euros? It’s a shocking figure, but not so hard to believe if you’ve been shopping for makeup.

The Raw Beauty Box Edition by Look Fantastic

April 9, 2019 No Comments

Hi Beauties,

April has been quite the month for beauty boxes! The Raw Beauty Box Edition by Look Fantastic was irresistible to me so I had to get it. Last week I had The Cruelty Free Beauty Box review and next week I have yet another fab organic and natural beauty box on the way!!! So excited, I love subscription boxes. They are a lovely gift to yourself for some self care and who doesn’t love getting a gift-wrapped pressie full of gorgeous goodies in the post?

I think I am becoming a bit of a subscription box addict now. That is 4 this month, I can’t believe it. I won’t divulge what the next two are but they are all great value and full of natural, organic skincare and makeup. The “Raw” Beauty Box Edition by Look Fantastic is a one-off special edition since they don’t normally do a 100% pure/natural box. They do often feature natural products but this is a real treat so I had to grab one! read more
