Bonjour Beautés!

Well I am over the moon to announce that I am a judge for the Clean Beauty Awards 2021! I was a judge for last years Clean Beauty Awards too and that was a brilliant opportunity to try out some of the top brands in the clean beauty industry.

I was so happy to be chosen as a judge again this year. It really is an honor. Plus, I get to try out even more of the amazing natural cosmetics that I love! This year I had the luck to try a range of different products and some were really outstanding. read more

Green Beauty Swaps

May 11, 2020 No Comments

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

Coconut Matter Eco Friendly Natural Deodorant Review

September 12, 2019 No Comments

Hi Friends,

Today I am reviewing the Coconut Matter eco friendly natural deodorant range. I reached out to Coconut Matter after discovering them via the Ethical Influencers page. I have been on the hunt for an eco friendly natural deodorant forever!

I did a review a while back on the Pierre d’alun natural deodorant stone and have been using mine since I got back from Morocco last November. It lasted the year but I missed the nice fragrance since it has no scent. I was really keen to try out the Coconut Matter deodorants when I spotted them. read more

Kleem organics moisturiser with retinol and vit c serum

Hi Beauties,

Today I bring you a review of my newfound skincare products, Kleem Organics Advanced Retinol Moisturiser and Vitamin C Serum. I have been trés busy working and minding the kids so haven’t had much time to blog lately! However, my youngest started back at creche the other day and now I have a few spare moments in the morning, yay!

I am so happy to be back to my beloved blog, I have missed it! So I thought I would share my latest natural skincare finds with you. As you may know, I love retinol and although not a natural product, it is derived from vitamin A and to be honest, it seems to work miracles for me! I normally only use natural products in my beauty arsenal but retinol is a holy grail product in my eyes so I use it every night. read more

Face Theory Vitamin Superhero Skincare Set Review

Hi Lovelies,

I am extremely excited to bring you the Face Theory Vitamin Superhero Skincare Set review. Reason being, my skin is in better shape than ever and glowing. I cannot believe how much my pores have reduced, they have practically disappeared. Let me tell you, that has never happened before. I got used to having large open pores many years ago and put it down to unavoidable circumstances. I had no idea skincare could change that!

The Face Theory Vitamin Superhero Skincare Set has brought me joy on so many levels. I began using it over a week ago and seen results within only a few days. I have sensitive skin so I figured I would take a while to get used to it. Luckily, my skin seems to have adapted well. I had a few tiny little red spots appear on my forehead and on my left cheek. This is par for the course for me when switching products or introducing new ingredients to my skincare regime. I wasn’t worried much and rightly so, my skin is clear and my pores are literally disappearing before my eyes! read more
