Christmas with REN Clean Skincare

One brand that never fails to impress me is Ren Clean Skincare. They are a brand I share a lot because I love everything they do, from their mini products to the supersized.

This Christmas, Ren has a whole host of gift sets on offer and I have two of them to share.

The first offering is The Gift of Glow Trio (£30.00) and it is described as being a 3-step brightness-boosting routine for glowing and more even-looking skin.

Inside the box, this trio of products are designed to limit irritation, resurface the skin, energise and lit-from-within, more even-look. Those products are:

• Ready Steady Glow Daily AHA Tonic (100ml) - This is the daily use skin-resurfacing toner which is proven to brighten, smooth skin texture and minimise the appearance of pores.
• Glow Daily Vitamin C Gel Cream (15ml) - This is a lightweight moisturiser which is proven to deliver an instant glow with visibly brighter, firmer and plumped skin after 7 days.
• Glycol Lactic Radiance Renewal Mask (15ml) - This is an exfoliating gel mask which is clinically proven to brighten and smooth for firmer looking skin after 30 minutes.

A really good set of products, especially the AHA Tonic, which I absolutely adore.  If you have always wanted to try one of these tonics but have found other brands to be too much for your skin, Ren is the one to try.

The second gift set is the Skin Zen Trio (£50) and it is described as being a  3-step complexion-calming routine for hydrated and healthy-looking skin.

This 3-step complexion-calming routine, features three products from the brands bestselling Evercalm™ collection and it offers products which leaves you with a more comfortable feeling skin that’s hydrated, soothed and supported and they are?

• Evercalm™ Gentle Cleansing Milk (50ml) - This is a beautiful comforting creamy cleanser which is designed to nourish and soothe dry or sensitive skin.

• Evercalm™ Overnight Recovery Balm (15ml) - This is one of my favourite products ever! It is an intensively nourishing barrier balm which is proven to calm and soothe while you sleep.  I use it when my skin is really dry be it on my face, legs, cuticles or wherever and not just when I sleep.

Another really good set of products, especially the Overnight Recovery Balm, which again, I absolutely adore and if you only ever buy one product, then make it this one!

Feather & Down Sweet Dreams Sleep Stones

Having shared a few amazing products from Feather & Down, today I am back with the Feather & Down Sweet Dreams Sleep Stones (£15.99) which I find absolutely fascinating and one of those quirky yet useful gifts to capture someones attention.

What I really like about this product is that it is inexpensive but also effective and not to mention really easy to use. Packaged in the midnight blue box with gold lettering, you will find a gold tin and an essential oil bottle.

Our sleep stones help to bring calm into your home and evoke the feeling of relaxation when partnered with the gentle aroma of the lavender and chamomile essential oil. Place them by your bed and let the soothing aroma slowly diffuse next to you as you drift off into a deep slumber.

Nestled inside the tin you will find all the stones, these stones are known as lava stones and on their own they are said to help alleviate anxiety, promote emotional tranquillity and bring calmness and feelings of relaxation, so when paired with an essential oil such as this one from Feather & Down, they are a great pairing.

The Essential Oil within this set from Feather & Down is called the Sweet Dreams Essential Oil and if you are familiar with any other product within this range - the bath essence, the candle, pillow spray or the body oil to name a few, then that scent is what you get with this Essential Oil.

Using the notes of both Chamomile and Lavender, which are known for their soothing and calming effects as well as helping to aid better and more restful sleep.

When it comes to using this set, it is really easy. Simply place the tin containing the stones on a flat surface and then add the essential oil, just a few drops to start with until you're happy with the scent, directly onto the stones, this will then release the calming aroma of lavender and chamomile. Then every evening you use it, remember to top up the stones with the essential oil which helps to prolong the relaxing experience. 

This gift set is on offer with Boots as part of their 3 for 2 offering and it is priced at just £15.99 right here.

Christmas With Burt’s Bees

As with the past few years, Burt's Bees has some amazing gift sets and for 2022, there is a cute selection that I am sharing with you in this Gift Guide post.

Whatever your budget, whether it is something for a stocking filler, secret Santa, gift work a colleague or a loved one, you will find something to tick that box and of course with it one of Burt's Bees most loved products.

Burt's Bees is synonymous with Lip Balm and it is a product you can never have too many of, be it in your handbag, your desk drawer, on your bedside table, in your makeup bag and even in your suitcase - just in case you forget to pack one. So it seems like a good place to start this gift off with the Mistletoe Kiss Lip Gift Set (£11.99)

As you can see, this gift set includes three products which are:

• Peony Lip Shimmer,
• Hibiscus Tinted Lip Balm and
• Pomegranate Moisturising Lip Balm.

These everyday shades are enriched with responsibly sourced Beeswax, Shea Butter, Vitamin E and fruit oils to moisturise and naturally soften dry lips.

Staying with Lip Care products, this time we have the Squeezy Trio Tinted Lip Balm Gift Set (£17.99)

Described as being 'The ultimate treat for lips!', this is an online exclusive set which features three bestselling Squeezy Tinted Lip Balms. 

These lip balms, which I have shared previously, not only provide a hint of natural colour and delicious fruity flavour, but they are also really hydrating.  Inside this gift set you will find: 

• Berry Sorbet, 
• Sweet Peach and 
• Watermelon Rush. 

They are all made with 100% natural origin ingredients, with responsibly sourced beeswax to condition and hydrating cocoa butter.

The third gift set happens to be my favourite of the ones I am sharing today.  The Lip Passion Gift Set (£15.99)

This set is described as being the 'gift of hydrated and nourished lips' and it features a pampering lip treatment trio. Staring the 

Passion Fruit Beeswax Lip Balm, a tint-free lip balm with moisturising Beeswax, the Overnight Intensive Lip Treatment with a ceramide-rich formula that hydrates and conditions lips whilst you sleep and my favourite new find from Burt's Bees, the Passion Fruit Hydrating Lip Oil which is rich in natural fatty acids and infused with natural oils to replenish moisture and reduce the appearance of dry lip lines leaving lips smooth, soft and healthy-looking.

The final gift set to share with you is not about the lips, it is in fact the Hydration Station Lip, Face & Body Gift Set (£27.99)

This Gift Set is described as being the one to 'Nourish and hydrate sensitive skin and lips' and it features a trio of lip, face & body heroes.

The first product within this kit is the 100% natural origin Unscented Lip Balm, a tint-free balm which uses moisturising Beeswax to hydrate lips. The second product is a gentle cream cleanser and this cleanser is made with soothing Aloe and Cotton Extract to moisturise your skin as you cleanse. The finally, there is the Sensitive Body Lotion which is formulated to restore the skin’s moisture barrier, it pairs skin-soothing Aloe and Rice Milk with nourishing Jojoba Oil and Shea Butter.

What I love about all of these gift sets is that they are so reasonably priced, they are packaged beautifully and the selection, which you can find here, gives a lot of a choice.

Christmas Gift Guide with Evolve Organic Beauty

If an environmentally friendly Christmas with an offering of exceptional beauty products is the one to tick all the boxes for you, then Evolve Organic Beauty is definitely ticking those boxes.

A brand I have championed for as long as I can remember, Evolve has some of the most beautiful face masks I have ever used and as a brand they have such an incredible product range that I am delighted to be able to share just a few of them within this gift guide.

I am a sucker for beauty baubles and Golden Glow (£15) is the ideal stocking filler to give that Golden Glow and, if you love a face mask with a bit of sparkle, here it is.

Nestled inside the bauble is Bio-Retinol Gold Mask and the name suggests, this mask uses Bio-Retinol, which is a natural retinol-like plant extract from Bidens Pilosa which works to smooth the skin, plump up wrinkles, stimulate collagen synthesis and rejuvenate the skin, as well reducing the appearance of wrinkles and the production of free-radicals. This mask also contains both organic Argan Oil and Rosehip Oil which work together to really nourish and moisturise your skin, so it glows just as much as the sustainably sourced mineral Mica that has been used for the golden shimmers!

The second gift set is The Smooth & Soothe Duo (£20) and here you have two products to really give your face that lovely pampering TLC.

The first of the two products inside this gift set is the Rose Quartz Facial Polish (30ml) and it is described as being packed full of natural ingredients to help buff away dead skin cells, unclog pores and improve the appearance of scarring. 

This exfoliator is so gentle on the face, so if you have sensitive skin or even if your skin is being sensitive, then this is a great exfoliator to use. It contains both Organic Rosehip Oil which helps to fight the signs of ageing by promoting cellular renewal, and Organic Hibiscus Extract which helps to break down those dry and dead skin cells to prevent future breakouts.  Of course the star ingredient is the Quartz Crystal Particles which, - as well as helping to buff away dead skin cells and unclog pores, the benefits of Quartz particles, if you use crystals is also quite incredible because they are said to encourage people to open up their hearts and experience feelings of peace, trust and harmony as part of their journey towards self love.

I already absolutely love this facial polish and will be ordering a full size once I have run out.

The second product within this duo is the Daily Renew Facial Cream (30ml) and this cream, which I have used before, is described as being an organic facial cream that restores normal to dry skin with a blend of pure organic oils.

On the skin, this cream is lovely and luxurious without being overly thick. To use, you only need a walnut-sized amount to cover your entire face. Using Hyaluronic Acid helps to reduce wrinkles, making the skin look younger with an improved skin tone as well as offering intense hydration to skin cells. Argan Oil which nourishes and it helps to improve elasticity and leaves skin feeling plump and soft and because there is a light fragrance it comes from the inclusion of soothing hypoallergenic vanilla and coconut, it is an absolute delight to use.

The final gift set that I have to share is The Aromatic Body Duo (£32) and inside you will find the African Orange Aromatic Hand & Body Wash and the African Orange Aromatic Hand & Body Lotion.

This is a gift set that is suitable for absolutely everyone, especially if skincare is not their primary concern! 

Starting with the African Orange Aromatic Hand & Body Wash which is described as being a refreshing hand and body wash to soothe and moisturise the skin. It uses both natural Coconut and Sugar Extracts to gently cleanse and maintain the skin's natural pH balance, Organic Aloe Vera which nourishes the skin and calms irritation. But that isnt all, it is also delicately fragranced with three key essential oils:

• Blood Orange Essential Oil which is used to promote the production of collagen as well as increase the blood flow to the skin. The aroma of Blood Oranges is also known to settle the nerves, relax the spirit, be uplifting and evoke cheer.
• Cedarwood Essential Oil with its earthy aroma that is soothing and grounding, so for those with anxiety and nervous tension, it is a great oil. On the skin, it is an astringent so it is great for relieving itching, soothing acne and breakouts plus it can be used on the hair and scalp too.
• Black Pepper Essential Oil, which is warm and spicy, has been known to help circulation especially in the skin and it can also be used to relieve sore muscles and joints. It also has good antibacterial properties and is a strong anti-oxidant and its aroma helps to create a more positive feeling.

It is absolutely delightful whether you choose to use it just for your hands or as a body wash too.

Then with the African Orange Aromatic Hand & Body Lotion, this product is designed to hydrate and moisturise the hands and body.  Again with its lightweight texture, it absorbs into the skin in no time at all and as it uses both the Cedarwood Oil and Blood Orange Essential oils, their scent is absolutely delightful.  The one change of ingredient with the lotion is the inclusion of Shea Butter over Black Pepper.

Shea Butter is an ingredient found in many moisturising and hydrating products and is often referred to as being a skin superfood and it is naturally rich in vitamins A, E and F. On the skin, it provides the essential fatty acids and nutrients which are necessary for collagen production.

Three delightful gift ideas from Evolve Organic Beauty and with many more in the offering which are all just amazing to give.  If you fancy trying a lot more products from the brand, they have an Advent Calendar which is half price and is currently priced at just £76 and inside you get 12 days of products which showcases the brands best-selling and most loved products.
