Natural Facial Cleansers for Sensitive Skin

Clean Beauty Awards facial care selection 2022

Hi Lovelies,

It’s that time of year again and I am a judge for the Clean Beauty Awards 2022! This year I was assigned the category of natural facial care. The products I received were mainly facial cleansing milks and I had a facial soap, a micellar makeup remover and a honey cleanser to try out. I adore being part of this amazing process each year.

I received the products one by one over the space of a couple of months and I dedicated at least a week to each one. I was happy to have the category of facial cleansers as I was running out of my own and these came at just the right time. read more

Face Theory Pink Clay AHA Mask & CeraQuench Renewal Cream

Face theory pink clay mask and CerQuench cream

Hi Beauties,

I have found my new favourite face mask and I am so happy to be spreading the word about it! It is Face Theory’s pink clay AHA mask. As soon as I saw this I knew I had to try it. I love clay masks as they are the best kind of mask for my skin. I have combination skin which can be prone to the odd blemish so I always use a clay mask to help draw out impurities and balance my skin tone.

I had been hearing great reports about pink clay recently and was eager to try it for myself. I already use a French green clay mask so this one really appealed to me. I will just start by saying, I am a massive Face Theory fan ever since trying their Regencalm retinol serum and glycolic acid cleanser which I wrote about here. read more

Hit and Miss Natural Beauty Product Review

Hit and miss natural beauty products

This is the first ever hit and miss natural beauty product review I have done on the blog. Reason being, I like to show you what works for me and what doesn’t, even though everyone is different. I have combination skin with some dark spots from years of hormonal acne, the wrong products, wrong skin care and of course, the sun! Luckily, I discovered natural skincare a few years ago and since then my spots have retreated and I only get the odd breakout of a pesky spot now and then. Hallelujah!!! read more

Facetheory Natural Retinol and Glycolic Acid Review

RETINOL AND GLYCOLIC ACID CLEANSER BY FACETHEORY

I happened to discover Facetheory products a few weeks ago and oh my God, I just have to say I am the happiest I have been in a very long time (perhaps forever!) with them. Here is my Facetheory natural retinol and glycolic acid review. Phew, very excited about these products and I haven’t done a review in a while now because I only believe in bringing you my best quality and top level faves. Here goes…

I have to say I was pretty sceptical about the retinol (pure vitamin A) as I had used it in my 20’s after being prescribed it by a dermatologist. The product I tried was a prescribed Retin-A. It originally made my skin peel and left me with redness so I discontinued use. I was told that was normal and continue on but I just couldn’t stand it so decided to try other methods. read more

Best All Natural Skincare Recipes

all natural skin care recipes

Hi Friends,

Today I am sharing my tried and tested best all natural skincare recipes. I am a huge believer in natural skincare and have been for years since discovering it. I had never been successful in clearing my hormonal spots after many years of trying every lotion and potion on the market (pretty much!). I genuinely believed from following the media that I needed something chemical made in a lab with the latest exotic plant to heal my recurring acne. I had often read about natural methods such as DIY products but always fobbed them off as too gentle to deal with what I considered severe problem skin. What I didn’t realise was that the harsh chemicals were making my sensitive skin worse and actually stripping the natural oils. The process makes your body produce even more oil to replenish it, resulting in more spots and irritation, even skin peeling in some cases. read more
