 Who?
Terre Verdi, founded by Sicilian-born Alessandra de Gregorio, make the most beautiful ethically-made products using the finest organic ingredients.  Terre Verdi were one of the earliest UK companies to manufacture COSMOS Organic products, certified by The Soil Association. Products range from 84 - 100% organic and all products are 100% natural. All products are vegan and contain no synthetic ingredients.

 What is it?
Acqua Di Rosa is a pure rose floral water - 100% organic and 100% natural.
It comes packaged with the usual Terre Verdi care and beauty. Housed in striking black miron glass, which not only looks stunning on the shelf but also helps to keep the product fresher by protecting the contents from sun damage. I only recently learned that the gold crest on the label is actually the de Gregorio family crest, which is a lovely touch.

 How to use
Can either be used by applying to cotton wool and using after cleansing to remove the remnants of makeup and grime. Alternatively, spritz the face whenever you need cooling down or freshening up.

 Thoughts
The first thing that strikes me about the Acqua Di Rosa Balancing Mist is the quality of the rose water. You can instantly tell that this is a beautifully pure distillation because of the scent. Some rose waters have a slightly artificial rose scent and others can smell slightly vinegary. But Acqua Di Rosa has the most exquisitely delicate natural rose scent I've ever tried. It's such a sensuous experience to use and leads me to spritz throughout the day just that little bit more often to enjoy its beautiful calming and cooling properties.

 I'm finding it particularly beneficial during this really hot weather. Not only does it cool and refresh but its anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and anti-septic qualities make it ideal for calming angry red skin and heat spots. 
Not only has my skin been struggling to deal with the hot weather but added to that, I've been experiencing more peri-menopausal hot flushes. A quick spritz of the balancing mist followed with a burst of cool air from my hand-held fan is just the ticket to instantly cool me down and to stop that awful feeling of fluster that accompanies such flushes!

 I've always kept Rosewater in my skincare collection at all times, but without exception, I think that the Acqua Di Rosa is the nicest and most effective that I've ever tried and is something that I shall definitely be repurchasing in the future.

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&

TonyMoly ~ The Fresh Phytoncide Pore Gel Cream Review

Image
TonyMoly  ~The Fresh Phytoncide Pore Gel Cream   I'm coming to the end of this pot of pore gel cream which I have been using everyday, both morning and evening since I opened it nearly two months ago. But typically, there seems to be very little information about this online and it doesn't seem to be readily stocked and easy to buy!   I picked this up from T.K Maxx, which could explain why it doesn't seem like a popular product online (and I mean popular in readily available) as it was possibly an end of line product, hence the reason why it ended up in T.K Maxx.   The product   The Fresh Phytoncide pore cream gel is a lightweight gel cream in the same vein as the water/aqua gels. It contains 100% pure Hinoki Cypress Water instead of distilled water. The cream is suited for oily/combination skin and acne troubled skin and enlarged pores.   Ingredients The writing on the pot is all in Korean but I found a list of ingredients on the CosDNA site.
