I post a lot on Instagram about beauty products I love and I've also made a fancy little guide featuring some products I love but I thought I would bring it all together here in one place. All these products are from amazing local (Australian) bizs with great ethics that vibe with me. They do not come together to form a regime as I don't have a set routine, it's more based upon how I'm feeling, what my skin needs at that time and sometimes, just what I grab first! They are simply my top ten faves (and I'll probably have to do a post on my next ten following this!).
This is a mighty little pump pack of 'luminous lightweight moisturiser infused with healing calcite crystal powder to enhance skin radiance, with powerful healing vibrations of self-acceptance and self-love. This best selling product is designed to hold moisture in the skin for up to 72 hours with a luminous glow from the pink calcite crystal to boot.' Sold? I definitely am!
Nerys Essential Night Cream has been a total game changer for me. It is super rich and nourishing and smells great. There is such a beautiful back story to this biz which I think adds to the absolute love of this cream. It uses hyaluronic acid, squalane, and allantoin to plump the skin, providing ultimate hydration, repairing and restoring the skin overnight for all-day radiance. If you love a super nourishing cream, you MUST try this.
Antioxidant Coco Clay Scrub by Dope Skin Co Organic Hemp Skincare is, for want of a better word, DOPE! Part scrub, part mask, altogether awesome. It's super gentle whilst doing an amazing deep cleanse and scrub. And it doesn't smell half bad either! Any products I use must smell good as well as doing a good job.
The WOWW (War On Waste Weekly) Body Bar is the bees knees when it comes to keeping your elbows, knees and heels the complete opposite of dry and cracked. The handiest little tin you'll ever keep on your bedside table, simply pop on these areas when hopping into bed and wake all smooth and moisturised. 'More akin to a balm than a traditional lotion the Body Bar is best used after a nice hot shower when your skin is dry and warm.'
I fell in major love with the Firming Eye Serum from Life Of Skin upon first use. 'A fragrant free serum with potent key active ingredients of Finger Lime Caviar and Ginseng, this eye serum also contain Hyaluronic Acid, Davidson Plum, Tasmanian Pepper Berry and Vitamin E which makes it a powerful serum that will help brighten dark circles, reduce puffiness and deminish fine lines.' And I'll second those words.
This Mere Lifestyle Resilience 8 Bio-Illuminating Revival Oil is an oil like no other. I use it alone, layered under and on top of moisturiser, mixed with moisturiser, mixed with foundation, in the middle of the day, whenever I can really. I just love it. 'A glow-boosting lightweight oil that delivers a restorative burst of nutrients that the skin can recognise as its own. Like a multi-vitamin for the skin, this super-natural oil delivers the ultimate dermal rehabilitation.'
If you love coffee and have dry skin, you NEED this in your life post stat. Perky Scuplting Body Hydrator by Frank Body is quite possibly the best body moisturiser I've ever used. 'I’m a sculpting moisturiser for smooth and hydrated skin. Packed with caffeine to firm your favourite ass-et, acai to give you a boost, shea butter to hydrate, and longan seed extract to sculpt your booty. I also come in a reusable coffee cup to rinse when you’re done for coffee on the run.'
Bamboo Reusable Make Up Remover Face Pads by gentlskincare are so soft and gentle. 'Bamboo Terry Facial Wipes are used to remove light make up as well as to cleanse and tone the face and neck.
Suitable for all skin types this product can be used by dampening with water only. They can also be used in conjunction with your daily cleanser, micellar water and to apply toner.'
LoCou Haircare's Peppermint Shampoo is an awesome family shampoo...it's gentle enough to use on Anna, effective enough to use on the tween's hormonal (greasy) hair and the perfect first of two cleanses on my hair! Plus, it comes in refillable pouches which are awesome for the environment! The Hair Mask is just as amazing too.
Although I don't wear makeup often, when I do, this Edible Beauty & Pure Enchantress Makeup Remover Oil is my best friend. 'A delicate cleansing oil that melts away makeup, excess sebum (oil) along with sunscreen and pollutants that build up on the skin whilst also soothing and moisturising dry, irritated skin. Hemp Seed, Jojoba and Cherry Kernel Oils are rich in Omegas and pro-vitamin A and E, offering skin enhancing benefits and boosting moisture retention to unveil a visibly smooth and hydrated complexion.'
So there you have them! My fave 10 beauty products. They are all total essentials in my life, although not all of them are every day products. I urge you to check them out if you are needing a new oil, moisturiser, serum, scrub or shampoo!
