Latest in Beauty - April 2019 Picks

 

 
I skipped last month's Latest in Beauty choices, but for April the edit is 'Oh So Natural' which sounded much more promising!
 
As usual, I opted for just three products in my box (with the option to choose one more box within the month at the same price). 
 
Let's have a reminder of how Latest in Beauty Works:
 
The 'Beauty Novice' is £9.00 for 3 items.
The 'Beauty Enthusiast' Box is £15.00 for 6 items
The 'Beauty Guru' Box is £18.00 for 9 items.
All box prices are inclusive of P+P.

Here are my three choices:

 
Schmidt's Natural Deodorant - Bergamot & Lime
 
There were four different scents of Schmidt's Deodorant to choose from so it was quite hard to pick a favourite! I had intended to go back and include some more in a second box, but these all sold out very quickly (should have upgraded to a bigger box!!).
Schmidt's Natural Deodorant is 100% Natural and certified vegan. It contains no Aluminium, no Propylene Glycol and no artificial fragrance.
Although I usually make my own natural deodorant, I'll admit that I'm lacking when it comes to getting the essential oil mix right and my deodorant's can sometimes smell a bit weak! The Bergamot & Lime scent is so good - so I'm happy to have this to keep in my swimming bag as this stick form is so much easier (and cleaner) to apply than my handmade cream deodorant.
 
Soaper Duper - Yuzu & Fig Body Butter
This is the second Soaper Duper Body Butter that I've tried out from the Latest in Beauty product selections. The Soaper Duper scent combinations are always phenomenally good; the body butters are reasonably basic but an excellent 'slather it all over' product and the size of the product is always incredibly generous.
 
True Skincare - Clarifying Safflower and Geranium Cleansing Oil
How could I resist the inclusion of a natural cleansing oil? I've yet to try this out, but the ingredients sound great and the bonus is that this is suitable for use on eyes.

Morning Skincare Routine - May

Image
  For the past few weeks I haven't been washing my face in the morning! I'm a great fan of the double-cleanse method, but then I read somewhere about not needing to double-cleanse in the morning if you double-cleanse at night. It was advised that you start your morning routine with the toner step, skipping out oil cleansers and foaming washes (or whatever double-cleansing products you use) altogether. Now it's not like I'd jump off a cliff if the internet told me to, but this made a bit of sense to me - why add more potentially drying/stripping/exfoliating products when there was no make-up to remove?   And this has worked out brilliantly well for me personally. I'd go so far as to say that I could currently change my skin status from combination/oily to NORMAL! I've noticed that by just toning in the morning, the oiliness on my face has calmed right down. And better still, I haven't had to blot in the day and very rarely use any type of powd

Flower Beauty ~ Light Illusion Foundation ~ First Impressions

Image
  Flower Beauty ~ Light Illusion Foundation £12.99 at Superdrug BUY HERE   I'd never heard of Flower Beauty before, let alone that it was a cruelty-free makeup range by Drew Barrymore. And I'll be honest, I bought it because I liked the look and sound of it! It took a while to get my hands on some too. Superdrug announced that they would be stocking the brand, although it must be available only in the bigger stores as it's not yet reached Norwich and I had to buy this online - completely without testing it first or even being sure about a colour match.   The shade I opted for, 'Nude', was unavailable for ages online but as soon as I got the notification email that it was back in stock, I ordered right away.   I'm not generally keen on buying foundations online without having first at least gotten a colour match - usually, this spells disaster and a product that I end up discarding quite quickly. But I struck gold with choosing the 'Nude&

Thyme Out Review

Image
    Thyme Out - £18.00 for 200ml plus Mini Thyme-To-Go Refillable Spray BUY HERE   I first saw mention of this interesting tincture (love that word!) a couple of months ago on the Victoria Health online Newsletter. Initially, I was thinking about it in terms of a skincare product - a 100% organic natural repairing lotion. But so far, it's been used for so many more purposes. In fact, I think I can safely say that this has been a summer essential for all the family, and hasn't been confined to the skincare shelf at all.   What is it?   Thyme Out is a water-based tincture where the Thyme has been steeped for weeks to draw out all of it's healing properties. The ingredients are all natural and very simple - just organic thyme, purified water, organic grain alcohol, and organic aloe vera.   What does it do? Whilst the ingredients are simple, the list of ailments that Thyme Out can help with certainly is not!   Skin Soothing and Healing   Helps
