C/S Studio Skincare.

C/S Studio Skincare range boasts up to 95% organic ingredients, whilst also proudly being cruelty-free.
A skincare range that not only is easy to incorporate into your own routine but your conscious can be at ease knowing there is no parabens or sulfates, whilst there is no fillers or petrochemicals.

The skincare range at C/S Studio consists of a charcoal exfoliator, an anti-ageing face serum and a black peel-off face mask. Each product is a great addition to add into your skincare regime or is a great start for beginners. 

An exfoliator is a great product to use to slough off dead skin cells to help keep skin refreshed and bright, whilst also helping for your products to absorb better. Using an exfoliator before shaving can help minimise razor cuts and will help you succeed for a closer shave. C/S Studio charcoal exfoliator not only will help you achieve these points it also will draw out any impurities. The liquorice root will help your skin be brighter, whilst the avocado oil will rejuvenate to ensure elasticity. 

Using a peel-off face mask is a must in any skincare regime to tackle and help any skin problems you may be suffering from. A face mask can help with a number of things depending on what it states it can help you with. Some face masks just add extra moisture whilst refreshing your complexion or others help to draw out impurities to help with acne. C/S Studio black peel off face mask purifies and soothes, thanks to its bamboo activated charcoal that will leave your pores unclogged revealing smoother brighter skin. 

Incorporating any serum into your skincare regime is a great place to start and creates a great base for your skin when applying any other products. Depending on what skin issues you may be suffering its important to choose a serum that will help you with those issues. I was lucky to be sent the C/S Studio Anti Ageing Face Serum with Stem Cell Technology that is situated in skull bottle.

Plant ingredient stem cells have the ability to renew themselves and are widely used in some brands skincare. Applied topically they stimulate growth of more stem cells, regenerating to help your skin be healthy whilst also looking youthful.
The C/S Studio anti-ageing serum ingredients offers your skin the best it deserves, listed below.

Hibiscus Flower Extract.

Hibiscus has a fantastic reputation in skin care because it is a natural source of alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs). AHAs are known to be the best face exfoliator for your face, speeding up cell turnover, and helping control acne breakouts, all of which can encourage fresher, younger, and smoother looking skin. They also increase moisture and improve flexibility and elasticity—the reason why hibiscus called the Botox plant.

Apple Fruit Stem Cell Extract.

Contains a high level of Vitamin C, poly phenols and a wide array of trace minerals.

Gotu Kola Stem Cell Extract.

A well known Asian herb traditionally used in the treatment of skin damage as well as for circulatory enhancement. Gotu Kola has been shown to have many healing attributes acting as a general tonic for overall skin and circulatory health. When applied topically it's been shown to speed the healing of damaged tissues and to minimise scarring.

Grape Seed Stem Cell Extract.

One of the ways that grape seed extract benefits the skin is by boosting the development of collagen production. Collagen is a protein that can be found in the connective tissues of the skin. Collagen also helps the skin to stay firm, supple and is the best natural moisturiser . It also helps in the renewal of skin cells.

Roasted Coffee & Vanilla Oils.

The combination of those fragrances bring an heady and sensual touch, It also does good : Vanilla Essential Oil can be attributed to its properties as an antioxidant and aphrodisiac, whereas Coffee oil acts as an antidepressant and an energiser.

The natural masculine scent from C/S Studio anti-ageing serum is unoffensive but very unique, personally i think the scent should be bottled its that good! The serum is near enough clear in colour and applies clear onto your skin. One of the ingredients is aqua (water) so you only need a little for it to glide over your skin, thanks to its consistency. Once applied, it absorbs quite fast and then you can tap your skin with your fingertips to encourage the serum to penetrate deeper. 

I really like how easy it is to use this serum and it does not interact with other products such as a moisturiser and sunscreen. The packaging is eye appealing and definitely would make a statement wherever you keep your products, Find out more by visiting C/S Studio Skincare. X Neil.

Tagiffany Luxury Pet Identification.

Tagiffany offer Luxury Pet Identification jewellery that looks great, whilst also giving you piece of mind if your pet went missing. By law every dog in the UK has to be micro chipped and wear some sort of identification, but if your pet went missing the finder could instantly read your details and contact you immediately.
Owning dogs and welcoming the new addition to the family, i was searching for a pet identification tag that would be able to survive all weather conditions whilst also being able to fit all my contact details on.

The Tagiffany website offers any pet owner a wide choice of luxury accessories for your loved pet or pets. An easy to navigate website with all information you need can be found, i browsed, then headed to the Tags For Dogs section. A wide selection of designs and colours on display really gives you the options of what size of tag may suit your dog. Not only can u pick a colour, but you can also choose what icon you want your pet identification to show on the display side. A bone or paw print to a love heart, or if your looking for something more luxury they have the my precious range.
Each range can be found on the drop down menu stating Products.

The Tagiffany shimmer range caught my eye and i decided to choose the Shimmer Pet ID Tag Paw Print - Black Glint. The process when ordering is really easy with the option to choose the size of your pet identification tag, to incorporate your engraving on the back. Starting from 20mm which allows you 3 lines, 25mm 4 lines, whilst 30mm and 38mm allows you five. Filling the boxes on their website with what you want the pet tag engraved with, does show a preview on the screen so you get an idea. Once your happy with the result you can then proceed to the checkout.

I only waited 3 days when my, or should i say my dog's Tagiffany Luxury Pet Identification landed on the door mat, On opening, it was displayed perfectly and i was surprised on how just how great the quality was. The design looks of high luxury whilst also being smooth, making for comfortable wear when this is worn pride of my place on my pets dog collar. The engraving is easily readable and being worn in all weather conditions the Tagiffany pet identification tag is still looking brand new!
Thanks to Tagiffany for offering a high quality pet loving service, I'm glad i purchased and so is my dog. X Neil.

Aromatika Rose Water.

Aromatika Rose Water is 100% pure and natural and does not contain any alcohol or other solvents.
Aromatika cosmetic waters are a great alternative to thermal waters and are suitable to use on every skin type, whilst you can apply to the skin in different ways.
The 100% natural product obtained by hydro- distillation of rose flowers
arrives in a 100ml bottle that you can either apply by spray or from the bottle itself.
Do you know just how your skin can benefit?

The Aromatika Rose Water has rejuvenating and regenerating properties, that when used daily you will see and feel just how your skin can benefit by introducing a rose water into your skincare routine: 

1. Slowing down the ageing process; 
2. Enhances skin elasticity; 
3. Regulates skin moisture balance; 
4. Has anti-inflammatory action; 
5. Normalises sebum secretion; 
6. Provides mattifying effect and skin smoothing; 
7. Promotes healthy complexion; 
8. Is perfect for skin around eyes; 
9. Can be used as additive to nail and foot baths. 

Cosmetic waters, such as the Aromatic Rose Water, are a great alternative to thermal waters by either just spraying cosmetic water onto the face and repeating the procedure as often as you like,
other great tips are;

1. Can be applied before or after makeup. 
2. As a toner and cleansing lotion: apply to the face and neck with a cotton pad, 2-3 times a day.
3. As an additive to finish cosmetic products. 

For hair care: rinse the hair with cosmetic water after hair wash; or spray it onto the hair during the day.
After using your hair will be smooth and shiny, easy to comb, and gain a slight delicate aroma.

The Aromatika Rose Water really is a multi-tasker by either using to remove any impurities or if your face demands a quick hydration shot throughout the day.
You only need a little of the rose water to complete its purpose, whilst being pure and natural your skins well-being is cared for.
Soft and smooth skin before applying your usual skincare products, creates a more uniformed base that you will find that you will not need to use as much as your products as you usually do, whilst still being able to achieve your skincare goals.
I really like how easy it is to introduce the rose water into your skincare, whatever your routine may be, whilst caring for your skin at a cost effective price. Take a look at the Aromatika store to add this pure and natural product into your cosmetic routine.
Keep at the temperature not higher than +25 С. Avoid direct sunlight. X Neil.
