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

Green Beauty Swaps

making natural oils in a lab for green beauty

Hi lovelies,

Today I am writing about my green beauty swaps since making the change gradually over the space of around 6 years. As you may know, I have been on a green beauty journey since discovering natural ingredients and plant-based beauty cleared my adult acne. Even when I started this blog back then, I was still transitioning.

For example, I used to think the only way to clear my acne was to go for the strongest chemicals and newest technology in order to obtain clear skin. I tried everything from Proactiv – which bleached my pillowcases and face cloths (yikes) to Clearasil – full of harsh chemicals and overpowering smell. They just seemed to either not work or actually aggravate my skin and strip it of its natural oils. read more

BAO Skincare Review

March 27, 2019 No Comments

Hi Natural Beauties,

I am a huge natural skincare fan and I love reviewing my fave natural skincare brands. Today I am doing a BAO skincare review. I reached out to them as they are one of my top fave brands of the moment and luckily for moi, I got to sample some new items. BAO stands for Beth’s Aromatherapy Organic and that speaks for itself. I currently use the BAO Hydrating Rose Mist every morning and love it.

The lovely Beth, who is the creator of BAO skincare generously offered me a couple of free products to sample in exchange for an honest review. Needless to say I was over the moon to be trying out some gorgeous new natural beauty goodies. BAO natural skincare is handmade with love from 100% natural and nourishing ingredients. I literally want to try everything from the range! read more

Jojoba oil is a fantastic natural moisturiser and skin balancer. I began using Jojoba oil for clear and balanced skin last year. It is a definite favourite of mine. That is why I have decided to dedicate a whole blog post to it!

Jojoba has been around for centuries and stood the test of time. I can strongly recommend Jojoba oil for clear and balanced skin. I have been using it for a while now and my skin feels soft, balanced and moisturised without feeling oily or greasy. read more
