Clean Beauty Awards 2020 Finalist Serums

Bonjour beautés,

Hope you’re all keeping well during this global pandemic and most importantly, staying home looking after yourselves. I am focusing on all the positives rather than dwelling on the negatives so one of the positive aspects of being in self-confinement is most certainly having time to blog!

I have really missed my blog so much since I have been working every single day up until the closure of our restaurant business two weeks ago. So without further ado, I bring you the finalists for the CertClean beauty awards 2020 best serums category. read more

My Current Natural Skincare Regime

My current natural skincare regime products

Hi Beauties,

Hope you’re all keeping well. I decided to do a post on my current natural skincare regime since I feel I have finally found the right products and my skin has improved immensely. The harsh winter weather took a toll on my skin at the beginning but now I have my skin back to normal so I will share with you my fave natural skincare heroes.

To be honest, it has been many many years of trial and error with my previously problem skin. I battled acne all through my teens and twenties and even into my early thirties. If you follow my blog you will know that natural skincare was the answer to all my problems. I finally feel confident in my own skin after years of insecurity and worry. read more

Regenacalm Plus 3% retinol serum bottle on sink

Hi Beauties,

I am super excited to be reviewing the brand new Regenacalm 3% retinol serum by FaceTheory. If you happen to follow my blog, you will know that i am a huge fan of FaceTheory beauty products. My absolute fave skincare product by FaceTheory is the Regenacalm retinol, which i reviewed previously here. Ever since starting to use the Regenacalm retinol serum on my face, i have noticed smoother skin and, believe it or not, less wrinkles! Apart from those obviously outstanding results, i almost immediately noticed less red marks and hyperpigmentation. This was a huge breakthrough for me as i have been trying to find a holy grail product to help with the reduction of red marks for years and years. read more

My Favourite Oils for Skin and Hair Health

homemade skin and hair oil

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
