Advent Calendars for Beauty Lovers

November 2, 2024 By in Beauty Tags: , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

The holiday season is almost here and  I am looking forward to it this year. It has been a busy year, with lots happening. So some relaxation and fun times are welcomed. I like the holiday season because it allows me to relax, unwind, and spend quality time with my loved ones. The shopping side of it is also fun. I enjoy looking out for amazing gifts for my family, and getting them wrapped up and posted. Another thing I enjoy is unwrapping a little gift every day for the first 25 days of December. I love the idea of an advent calendar and this year, I am going to pay a little more attention when shopping around for an advent calendar.

If you are like me and you’re already looking forward to the holiday season, here are some lovely advent calendars for beauty lovers to grab as you countdown to the big day.

Natural Body Oils for Dry Skin

September 2, 2024 By in Beauty Tags: , , , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

I have been using natural body oils for many years and am glad they are now a main part of my skincare routine. Body oils are great substitutes for body creams and lotions. They are usually easily absorbed into the skin and leave it feeling smooth, soft, and moisturised. If you are dealing with dry skin and looking to add natural body oils to your skincare routine, here are some great ideas for you.

Natural Body Oils for Dry Skin

Castor Oil

I recently started using castor oil and I am blown by how amazing it is. This lovely natural oil can be used in a variety of ways. I usually add a few drops into my face cream and I also apply a bit directly to the required areas. Castor Oil can also be used as an all-round body oil. It contains Omega 6, Omega 9, and Antioxidants, which help the skin stay hydrated, soft, and smooth. Castor Oil is also rich in Vitamin E which is great for growing your eyelashes and eyebrows.

Here is a brand I have used before – Castor Oil.

Coconut Oil

Coconut Oil is one of my favourite natural body oils. I also use this oil for my hair and it works. If you are new to the whole body oil routine, I would suggest you start off with a bottle of Liquid Fractionated Coconut Oil and see how you get on. Coconut Oils can be used in many different ways and they are easy to apply, but I would suggest you avoid applying this oil on your face as it is rich in saturated fatty acids, which may lead to facial skin problems like acne and all. Like with all skin problems, always test on a small section before a full application.

Jojoba Oil

If you are struggling with dry skin and you want your skin to glow, Jojoba Oil is a great natural oil to try out. It contains Vitamin E and Omega 9 fatty acids which help balance the skin’s sebum production, leaving the skin hydrated, moisturised, and healthy. I have used Jojoba Oils quite a lot, and my favourite is the Naissance Golden Jojoba Oil because it is natural, undiluted, not tested on animals, and easy to blend with other carrier and essential oils.

Almond Oil

This natural oil can be used on the skin, hair, and nails. Almond Oil is a great carrier oil for aromatherapy purposes. It can be used in many different ways. Sweet Almond Oil is a great option for anyone looking to incorporate this natural body oil into your daily skincare routine. It works so well on the skin and it can be used on all skin types.

Have you tried any of these skincare products before? Which natural body oil is your favourite?

Product Review: ECO Style Professional Styling Gel

I am always on the hunt for great natural hair products to try on our hair. Many of the hair styling products around are not my cup of tea but this ECO Style Professional Styling Gel is a rare gem. I have used the Olive Oil version of this styling gel a few times so I decided to try this version with Argan Oil, and I am so glad I did. This ECO Style Professional Styling Gel with Argan Oil is a fantastic hair styling product. I got it some weeks ago and we have used it a few times already. It ticks all my hair styling boxes and then some.
