Starting my Own Skincare Brand!!

March 11, 2025 No Comments

Hello Lovelies,

I am super excited to bring you the news that I am going ahead with my dream of starting my own skincare brand. Finally, I am almost ready to launch, after a long journey of testing and choosing the perfect products made from natural and high quality ingredients and with full certification.

Sorry I have been absent from the blog for so long. So much has happened in my life and I have been completely overwhelmed. I have had to restart my life as a single mum in France, navigating life on my own in a foreign country, so needless to say I haven’t had much time to blog! read more

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

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

100% Natural Skincare by Moor Spa Review

December 16, 2020 No Comments

Hello Beauties,

Today I am happy to bring you a review of this amazing 100% natural skincare by Moor Spa. As you may know I am a huge natural skincare fanatic and I am forever raving about the benefits of going ‘au naturel’. I have been trying lots and lots of natural skin care brands over the past 6 years or so since discovering that cutting out harsh chemicals and taking the natural route, cleared my adult acne. Ever since I made that fateful discovery, I have never looked back!

I was a lucky girl to be sent some fabulous and gorgeously branded products by Moor Spa so I have been using the Hydrating serum, the Kelp enzyme mask and the Nourishing facial oil for almost 2 weeks now. Normally I expect to see results in a couple of weeks but I was so impressed by this trio, I noticed immediate results after using on the first night! Kudos to that 😀 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
