Aloe vera health benefits

Aloe Vera is my new go-to desert island must-have product. I had no idea there were so many health benefits until reading up on it recently. I was blown away by the long list of amazing benefits of using Aloe Vera for overall health and beautiful skin.

Here is a little bit of history about Aloe Vera, a wonder product used by many, dating back to over 6000 years ago!

Other names for the plant include Lily of the Desert, Plant of Immortality, Healing plant, Fountain of Youth and Burn plant.

Over 6000 years ago, stone carvings of the plant were displayed in tombs of the dead Pharaohs in Egypt. It was described as a plant of immortality. read more

Hi Beauties,

In the Christmas shopping mood, I have put together a list of my fave natural beauty gifts that I’m sure any natural beauty lover like myself will love. I would be chuffed to see any of these under the Christmas tree and there are some really great products here that are priced well in comparison to buying the single items. Even if you are buying for yourself, it is probably a good idea to buy in a set. After all, it is a good idea to use the same range as often those products are designed and created to work in conjunction with each other. As you often read on the labels, they are best used with other products from the same range. It is a great way to introduce people to the fantastic benefits of natural skincare and no harsh or nasty chemicals are present in this lot. read more

♥ Hi Lovelies,

As you may know, if you follow my blog, I am a huge natural skincare fanatic so I’m always on the lookout for and trying out new products. Lately I have been using some really great ones, so I decided it was time to share my new ones. I won’t mention all of them as some are still in the testing stages but these ones are worth a mention. Due to the change in seasons and my skin dehydrating, I have tried out the new products and been satisfied with the improvement. read more

My Favourite Oils for Skin and Hair Health

Hi Guys,

I decided to compile a list of my favourite oils for skin and hair health to outline the various benefits and uses of these organic and natural beauty wonders! Hope they are useful for you and teach you a bit more about them so that you will try them out in your beauty routine.

These are my top faves in alphabetical order –

Almond Oil

Almond oil is made from almonds which are actually a fruit, rather than a nut but known mainly as a nut. The oil is pressed from the fruits seeds. The ground up almonds are a gentle exfoliant and rich in vitamin E. Aids in the removal of dead skin cells and renewal of skin. When the oil is absorbed by the skin, it protects it, even having a low SPF against the rays. It has a lovely consistency and blends well. Works best when massaged into the skin. Sweet almond oil is also great for hair growth and can work brilliantly as a serum. I have curly and often prone to frizz hair so I love using it to tame my unruly mane. You only need a tiny amount as it spreads well. I also use it on my eyelashes with a cotton pad as it promotes eyelash growth so its a fabulous all-rounder. Soothing for sensitive skin. Gentle enough for babies. read more

Activated charcoal DIY Mask

Hi my lovelies,

Check out these brilliant Activated Charcoal DIY Peeling Mask and Clarifying Scrubs!

I only recommend products of the highest quality from companies using no synthetic ingredients, using only organic and fairly traded herbs, and conducting their business ethically and with social responsibility. 

Hope you are keeping well and looking after yourselves. Well I am just going to let you know that I am so happy with my new found skincare product and I can say it has completely changed up my skincare routine. I have heard many a rave review about charcoal and the benefits for your skin. I had been on the lookout for a good natural charcoal scrub when I was recommended this fantastic DIY mask to try. So if you know me, I am a huge DIY skincare diva haha. It’s funny to put it in that context because when you think diva, you often think high maintenance, spending a fortune on the expensive products. Well a diva will only accept the best and in my case the best is the kind with natural ingredients, and one way to know that for sure is to make your own at home. So me being the skincare diva that I am, couldn’t wait to try it out. read more
