You all know how I am so into caring for my skin properly, now that I am in my 30s. I shared some skincare tips for over 30s

some days ago, and it was well received, so I thought to share some beauty and health products I have been trying lately, thanks to Chemist UK. These products are also great ideas to include in a hamper as a gift for Mother’s Day.

Paul Smith Extreme Eau de Toilette

This Paul Smith Extreme Eau de Toilette feature fruity notes of Italian mandarin and blackcurrant mixed with freesia as top notes. For the heart notes, Paul Smith uses entire blackcurrant branches, softened by heliotrope and violet. The final notes come from amber and musk with the resonances of sandalwood and cedar.

1. The fragrance is not as long-lasting as I would want it too, but I guess that is usually the case with Eau de Toilette perfumes.

I would recommend this fragrance and I would buy again. It is a soft fresh scent, great for summer days.

All these products and many more can be found on the Chemist UK website (link above). It is a great online store for skincare, toiletries, health and wellbeing products, and it is very easy to search for products on the website.

What do you think of these products? Have you used any of these before? I think the products are fabulous for a Mother’s Day hamper gift. Do you agree?
