Saach Organics Haircare.

Saach Organics haircare products easily cater to and for your hairs needs by simply selecting the following shampoo's which are: hair strengthening, colour protect, repair and revitalising, whilst pairing any shampoo with the hair nourishment conditioner available. The shampoo's effectively cleanse the hair by using 100% vegetable origin and biodegradable mild cleansing agents that create a foam when lathering but without stripping the hair of its moisture. Ceramides are also included to promote elasticity and moisture retention to improve and prevent breakage whilst also helping to keep the cuticle of the hair strand flat to boost shine and smoothness. In keeping with Ayurveda traditions, *Sapindus Triolatus fruit powder (Ritha), *Emblica Officinalis fruit powder (Amla),* Acacia Cocinna Fruit Powder (Shikakai), and *Lawsonia Innermis (Henna) are also included to support the scalp and health of the hair.

Hair Strengthening Shampoo by Saach Organics.

Presented in a squeezable tube with the red colour display on the front, the strengthening shampoo contains basil and peppermint to increase circulation of the scalp by stimulating it. I reach for this shampoo when im wanting a cleaner and refreshed scalp but also an effective cleanser to remove build-up from hair products and pollutants your hair can pick up during the day. The smell is heavenly and while it does help in making the hair feel stronger which is ideal if you have been over using heat tools for styling, it does not feel stripped or overly cleansed of its essential moisture because hydrated and clean feeling hair will greet you!

Repair & Revitalizing Shampoo by Saach Organics.

Presented in a squeezable tube with the yellow colour display on the front, the repair & revitalising shampoo incorporates tea tree, rosemary oil, and lemon oil that all work together to relieve scalp irritations and dandruff. Typically using an anti-dandruff shampoo will help to restore balance to the scalp whilst also preventing flare-ups of dandruff, but some formulas i have used do tend to overly strip the hair of its essential moisture when cleansing. The refreshing scent instantly awakens the senses and what i love about this shampoo is not only does it effectively cleanse and soothe the scalp but it also leaves the hair feeling moisturised even before any conditioner is applied!  

Colour Protect Shampoo by Saach Organics.

Presented in a squeezable tube with the teal colour display on the front, the colour protect shampoo utilises orange oil that infuses the hair with moisture and vitamins that transforms dry brittle strands while the Lawsonia Innermis (Henna) conditions, strengthens, and can also protect the hair from UV damage. Typically colour protect shampoos are much gentler on the hair to pro-long your chosen shade or tone while also aiding in the hairs health to boost condition and shine. The shampoo gently lathers to cleanse the hair while you will notice that the hair transforms through the rinsing stage to feel soft and hydrated while enhancing your hair color, a gentle but effective shampoo for colour-treated hair!

Hair Nourishment Conditioner by Saach Organics.

Presented in a squeezable tube with the pink colour display on the front, the hair nourishment conditioner features a host of nourishing and conditioning oils to nurture every strand. The emollient and milky texture of the formula contains jojoba seed oil, vegetable oil, avocado oil, coconut oil, sunflower oil, babassu oil, brazil nut oil and primrose oil that all work in synergy together to condition and seal in moisture for improvement in the hairs health. I was really impressed on how little you need when applying after using one of the shampoos mentioned above, in fact it glides through the hair so easily and rinses away to leave hair feeling nourished without any weigh-down. A great conditioner that nourishes, conditions and strengthens the hair each time it is used in your haircare routine. 

Mint & Rosemary Shower Gel by Saach Organics.

Saach Organics don't just provide brilliant haircare products, they also have other products available to help restore and revitalise with their innovative formulas. The mint & rosemary shower gel utilises 100% vegetable origin and biodegradable mild cleansing agents that create a foam when lathering but without stripping the skin of its essential moisture. The formula also contains niacinamide (Vitamin B3) that provides anti-inflammatory benefits while also supporting the skins barrier function and improving some skin condition's. Applying to damp skin, the gel gently works itself into a skin-conditioning lather while the spearmint and rosemary oil instantly influences your well-being and soothes any aching muscles. I was really impressed on not only its cleansing abilities but also leaving the skin feeling smooth and nourished, an important factor to consider when using any shower gel!

Unwind from the day's stresses by clearing the mind and easing tension thanks to the cedarwood essential oil the peace candle contains. The other influential oil is patchouli that has mood balancing properties whilst also clearing the mind of any negative thoughts with its calming scent profile which is why it is known as the peace-oil. The aromatic cedarwood reminds you of the outdoors with its warm and woody profile while working in perfect combination is patchouli with its sweet, spicy, and earthy notes to bring a sense of calm and peace throughout the evening when lighting this candle. 

Lucky Cloud Skincare Natural Candles Restore And Peace.

I was really impressed with the re-usable packaging but also of the high quality scent both candles provide with an approximately 40 hrs burn time each. It is important to remember to never leave a burning candle unattended and do not burn on or near anything that can catch fire whilst also keeping out of reach of children and pets. The candles would make a lovely gift for someone or a lovely treat for yourself because they work really well to influence your wellbeing and the slight crackling of the natural wooden wick also adds to the experience. Priced at £23.00 each both Lucky Cloud Skincare candles are available here: Lucky Cloud Skincare Restore Natural Candle and Lucky Cloud Skincare Peace Natural Candle x Neil.

The intense skin repair oil is your go-to-product to apply at bedtime for when your skin is repairing and regenerating overnight because this unique oil features a cocktail blend of vitamins, antioxidants, fatty acids and plant oils to provide deep hydration, reconstruction, and preventing premature ageing.

Gentle exfoliation of the skin not only helps boost circulation but also helps remove dead skin cells by using a manual action that gently buffs them off and away. It is important to only use light and gentle actions because the skin is delicate but the great thing about the Madara exfoliating scrub is that it is an oil-to-milk product that helps keep the skin feeling nourished when used. The physical exfoliator featured in the formula is volcanic sand that gently buffs the skin with its granular particles but has skin-conditioning benefits while the oils featured are sunflower, castor, apricot, and also oat. Cleansing the skin to remove all traces of products, dirt, and debris you are then ready to apply the scrub while it is an excellent step to do before shaving to lift the hairs away from the skin to help your razor glide across the skin for a smoother shave. Massaging over dry skin and then adding a splash of water to activate and change the texture from an oil-to-milk, i was quite surprised on how the milky lather feels nourishing when washing off and patting the skin dry. It perfectly leaves the skin feeling smoother without feeling stripped of its moisture and you then can proceed to shave or follow on to your current skincare product routine. Discover it here: Madara Exfoliating Scrub Oil-To-Milk. 

Samples are great to use before buying the full-sized product and the AYUMI body care products do not disappoint by including argan and mandarin oils with turmeric and papaya extract in its formula's. The turmeric body scrub is essential to use to buff away dead skin cells whilst also prepping the skin before shaving or applying products. Massaging gently onto damp skin to boost circulation, the olive stones and crushed pumice are physcial exfoliators that buff away any dead skin cells for instant improvement while the oils provide nourishment for the skin. I was quite impressed with how the skin feels instantly smoother and is now prepped for you to apply your lotion or moisturiser.... The turmeric and shea butter body lotion instantly glides over the skin to quench the skins thirst while absorbing quickly to leave the skin feeling soft and silky. A gorgeous body lotion that is lightweight in texture but provides deep hydration without feeling sticky or leaving the skin feeling a greasy. Discover both products here: AYUMI Body Scrub and AYUMI Body Lotion.

Cleanse the skin effectively when applying the ORGANIC WORKS cleansing face wash that utilises ingredients to create a rich lathering foam when applied to wet skin. Utilising surfactants that produce the bubbles and cleanse which are Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Sodium Coco-Sulfate, Decyl Glucoside,  Coco-Glucoside, Sodium Lauryl Glucose Carboxylate, Sucrose Laurate, and Lauryl Glucoside. The hydrating and nourishing properties of this cleanser are helped from Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Glycerin, Tocopherol, Pelargonium Graveolens Flower Oil, and the Pelargonium Graveolens Oil included. I tend to not use any foam cleansers because they dry my skin out too much so i was interested to find out if this would do the same. Pressing down on the pump and dispensing a coin sized amount i applied to wet skin and gently created a lather before rinsing off and patting the skin dry. I was amazed with how this effectively removed my daily SPF to leave my skin feeling refreshed but not stripped of its moisture balance! A quick and effective cleanse to leave the skin prepped for my skincare products to be applied. Discover here: ORGANIC WORKS Cleansing Face Wash.

Achieve a vibrant dash of colour when applying one of the SOUL TREE lipsticks that also includes nourishing ingredients in their formulas so they are a makeup and skincare product for your lips!

I did notice a parfum is added along with the Rosa damascena (rose) oil that the lipstick does smell of but soon disappears after a short time. Applying to the centre of both the top and bottom lip and gently swiping out to the corners  will ensure an even coverage of the natural pigments the lipstick contains though it isn't waterproof but is a makeup and skincare hybrid product.

Medik8 Press & Glow

Daily Exfoliation PHA Tonic With Enzyme Activator

Exfoliate and hydrate the skin when incorporating the Medik8 Press & Glow into your skincare routine. Toner products are used after cleansing and depending on their ingredients they can achieve multiple benefits while also prepping the skin before applications of serums and moisturisers. The press and glow not only features a 5.5% PHA poly hydroxy acid but also contains hydrating and soothing ingredients making it ideal for even the sensitive of skin's, while also being able to work in conjunction with vitamin A and C products. Disclaimer: The links used are not affiliated and are placed for you to discover the product.

Poly Hydroxy Acid Gluconolactone:

I love using an exfoliating toner and do have my favourites, but sometimes i have felt a slight sting while also remembering to be careful in which products to apply afterwards. The poly hydroxy acid (PHA) featured in the press & glow is Gluconolactone that not only is hydrating and helps to repair the skins barrier function but also gently lifts off dead skin cells to resurface. The other benefits are it doesn't leave the skin sun sensitive (Always Use An SPF Anyway) because it acts as an antioxidant and is suitable for sensitive, rosacea prone, and can even be applied after any cosmetic procedure. 

Aqua (Water) - Solvent for ingredients to mix.

Gluconolactone - Poly Hydroxy Acid 5.5% (PHA) that exfoliates, hydrates, repairs barrier function, and has antioxidant and anti-ageing benefits.

Glycerin - Humectant and moisturiser that supports the skin's lipids, protects against irritation and helps to restore the barrier function of the skin. 

Hydrolyzed Opuntia Ficus-Indica Flower Extract - Prickly pear extract is a natural enzyme activator that speeds up natural shedding of the skin while also boosting cell renewal for improvement in clarity, fine lines/wrinkles, and achieving a natural glow.  

Euterpe Oleracea Fruit Extract - Acai extract protects the skin from free radicals that can damage while also having anti-inflammatory benefits. 

Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe Vera) Leaf Juice - Moisturiser and soothing humectant that helps skin regeneration and wound healing with anti-inflammatory benefits.

Sodium Hydroxide - Used to adjust the pH of a formula which is important in exfoliants.

Sodium Citrate - Used to adjust the pH of a formula while also helping to keep the product nicer for longer by counteracting metal ions that occur when typically water is used in the ingredients.

Hydroxyacetophenone - Antioxidant that also acts as a preservative booster and soothing agent.

Phenoxyethanol - Preservative.

Ethylhexylglycerin - Preservative that boosts effectiveness of Phenoxyethanol while also having emollient benefits.

Potassium Sorbate - Preservative that keeps your product nicer for longer. 

Sodium Benzoate - Preservative that is used with Potassium Sorbate to make the product stay nicer for longer. 

Improve Texture, Tone, and Hydration:

Presented in a 200ml bottle while a refill option is available to purchase, you press down on the pump 3-4 times to dispense the perfect amount onto a cotton pad or reusable face pad. The non-sticky but hydrating formula instantly refreshes when swiping over a cleansed skin but more importantly i felt no stinging or tingling! It leaves the skin feeling perfectly smooth when the formula has absorbed and creates a more optimised skin surface that is better at absorbing your active products such as your vitamin A and C serums without sensitising the skin. The fragrance free, essential oil free, and alcohol-free tonic is ideal for those wanting to incorporate an exfoliating toner in your skincare routine to improve texture, tone, and boost hydration! The Medik8 product is priced at £25.00 and available here: PRESS & GLOW™ x Neil. 

BEAUTY BAY SKINHIT 0.2% RETINOL COMPLEX SERUM WITH RETINOL AND PEPTIDES.

BEAUTY BAY SKINHIT 0.2% RETINOL COMPLEX SERUM WITH RETINOL AND PEPTIDES.

Perfect for first-time retinol users, the BEAUTY BAY SkinHit 0.2% Retinol Complex Serum With Retinol And Peptides is ideal for those who want to improve fine lines and wrinkles while also improving clarity of the complexion. The vegan-friendly serum is fragrance free and should be used a couple of times a week before building tolerance to apply daily, every night. You can apply alone onto cleansed skin or add a few drops to your favourite night-time moisturiser or overnight mask, but remember to apply a broad-spectrum SPF in the morning. Disclaimer: The links used are not affiliated and are placed for you to discover the product. 

Presented in a 50ml bottle with dropper dispenser, the Skincare by BEAUTY BAY serum features the following ingredients:

Aqua (Water) - Solvent for ingredients to mix. 

Propanediol - Produced sustainably from corn sugar, it acts as a humectant and moisturiser while also acting as a solvent for ingredients to mix.

Polysorbate 20 - Helps water and oils ingredients to mix without separating.

Retinol - 0.2% proven cell-communicating ingredient to revitalise the skin. 

Acetyl Hexapeptide-1 - Synthetic peptide composed of the amino acids alanine, arginine, histidine, leucine, phenylalanine and tryptophan that helps defend and calm the skin from environmental factors while also promoting a more uniformed and fresher skin tone. 

Sodium Citrate -  Neutralises metal ions that can occur from water used in a formula while also adjusting the pH to the preferred level.

Xanthan Gum -  Ingredient to help thicken a products formula while also stopping oil and water from separating.

Citric Acid - Sets the pH of a formula to the perfect value. 

Sodium Benzoate - Preservative to keep the product nicer for longer but is usually combined with the one below as its not strong enough on its own.

Potassium Sorbate - Preservative to keep the products formula stable for longer and is combined with the one above for maximum effectiveness.

Disodium EDTA - Chelating that neutralises metal ions from the water ingredient used to keep the product stable for longer. 

1,2-Hexanediol -  Moisture-binding and synthetic preservative.

Tocopherol - Antioxidant vitamin E that is easily absorbed by the skin to provide emollient benefits and photoprotection against UVB rays (always wear an SPF though). 

Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil -  Emollient plant oil that helps keep skin hydrated and protects the skins surface, while also repairing and supporting the skins barrier function. 

BHT - Synthetic antioxidant that is used as a preservative.

BHA - Synthetic antioxidant that is used as a preservative.

Applying 1-2 drops to the face, the serum spreads easily over the skin while absorbing quickly to leave a smooth and hydrated base. I typically wait about 10 minutes after applying any retinol to allow the formula to have fully absorbed before then following on with my night moisturiser, but you can add a few drops into your moisturiser (to buffer it) for your skin to become tolerant to retinol overtime. Its important to remember when using any retinol product that its not a sprint but rather a long marathon to reach the goal of applying every night slowly while still respecting the skins integrity. The budget-friendly retinol is priced at £5.00 at BEAUTY BAY and available here: SkinHit 0.2% Retinol Complex Serum With Retinol And Peptides x Neil.
