    New! Nourish London Skin Protecting Daily Moisturiser SPF 25

     Post contains sample  The latest launch from Nourish comes just in time for the sunnier days we’ve got coming. The new Skin Protecting Daily Moisturiser SPF 25 is formulated with a blend of skin-benefiting ingredients and zinc oxide – a natural mineral sun filter. Zinc sunscreens are generally pretty good for people with sensitive eyes (and skin for that matter) and as someone who’s eyes often react to sunscreens, I can attest that this doesn’t irritate me in the slightest. It’s worth mentioning that this product is actually completely safe to use on babies, which is always reassuring! While the Zinc protects against damaging UVA and UVB rays, the moisturiser…

    Clark’s Botanicals Retinol Rescue Overnight Cream

    (aff links) Clark’s Botanicals Retinol Rescue Overnight Cream had been on my wishlist for quite some time. I first tried a sample size that came as part of a Space NK gwp a few years ago and had decided, as I scraped out the very last bit from that tiny pot, that it was a good retinol cream for beginners and one day I was going to need the full size in my life. That day arrived on my birthday in September so I’ve been the proud owner of my very own jar for a good few weeks now. It can’t have come at a better time really because I…

    Weleda Week: Weleda Skin Food Light

    (affiliate link) I recently had the pleasure of attending a Weleda Insight Day at the brand’s UK headquarters. It was a beautiful day of exploring Weleda’s bio-dynamic gardens and fields, learning about the brand’s history and ethos, trying out a relaxing rose facial and sampling tasty vegan food. It was a very early start for a lot of us to get up to Derby for the day but it was more than worth it and only made me even more interested in a brand I already had a lot of time for. Along with the other attendees (a mixture of Bloggers, Makeup artists and Weleda enthusiasts) I received a lovely…
