Evolve Organic Beauty Bio-Retinol + C Booster

If your skin is looking and feeling full and tired, Evolve has just the product you need. I am a huge fan of Evolve as a brand and have featured them a lot on this blog, one of my particular favourites is the the Facial in a Box gift set which gives you a real insight into what the brand can and does have to offer. The product I am sharing today is the Evolve Organic Beauty Bio-Retinol + C Booster.

This oil brings together Vitamin C and Bio-Retinol into what is described as being an innovative cocktail of vitamins and their job is to improve the appearance of dull and tired skin, and provide the nourishment your skin needs to look radiant.

The booster comes packaged inside a dark brown glass bottle and with it is a pipette dropper. The dropper is designed to help you make the application really easily. 

The golden liquid inside, which has very little scent to it, isn’t greasy nor is it tacky, but it is definitely hydrating. Packed with an amazing list of ingredients you will find the following:

• Bakuchiol provides retinol-like behaviours by significantly decreasing wrinkle surface area and hyperpigmentation whilst improving firmness and elasticity with no irritation. 
• Organic rosehip oil helps to fight signs of ageing and keeps skin nourished and hydrated. 
• Oil-based Vitamin C improves skin radiance without irritation. 
• Sea Buckthorn oil improves skin elasticity and hydration and reduces skin roughness and it is rich in Omega 7, 3 and beta carotene.

This oil is an absolute delight to use and even if you have used a Vitamin C product before and had a slight or even any reaction, with this you should be absolutely fine.

To use this oil, the instructions ask that you apply 1 to 2 drops of the Evolve Beauty Bio Retinol + C Booster onto cleansed skin, or you can mix directly with your moisturiser or serum if it makes life easier with your skincare routine. I have nothing but praise for this bottle of absolute joy and if there was a version for my body, then I would be practically bathing in it. 

What this Booster has done for my skin has improved that dull tired look, the one which leaves you with hydrated and brighter looking skin, all without irritation. 

You can find this Evolve Organic Beauty Bio-Retinol + C Booster for £28 via the Evolve website* or sites such as Feelunique* who happen to have some amazing offers right now!

Kohl Kreatives Mi-Fan Brush - made from rice!

If I told you that a makeup brush brand had created a fan brush made entirely out of rice, as in Rice, would you believe me? Admittedly I thought it was a bit of a leg-pull, but it isn't and it is absolutely true.  Meet Kohl Kreatives Mi-Fan Brush.

Kohl Kreatives is a brand I have featured twice. First with their Flex Collection brushes here and more recently with their Feast Your Eyes collection of brushes here. For me, they are a brand which thinks outside the box and does things that no other brand that I have used, own products from or have seen on my social media do.

Mi-Fan which is said to mean Cooked Rice in Chinese if you are wondering, is a brush like no other I have come across in the way that it is made. This brush is made entirely of processed rice husk, which makes it sustainable and conscious production, something Kohl Kreatives holds dear to their heart. Brand founder Trishna Daswaney states:

"We only use old and disposed of waste to produce out brushes. The Upcycling process is really key in our production process as well as looking after the people who help us to create them"

The Mi Fan brush eliminates plastic altogether, which I have to say impresses me a lot. When rice is produced, the husk is removed, this husk would usually go to waste. It is at this stage that the husk if collected and combined with plant starch to produce a new compound made up of 80% husk and 20% plant starch. This further creates an almost clay like material which can then be moulded and shaped, giving you the Mi Fan brush.

As with the Feast Your Eyes collection, this brush also has a cubed handle, you could say it represents a chopstick, once again this shape ensures the brush doesn't roll when you set it down, it is easy to grip and in keeping with the brands ethos, not only is it easy to use for those with motor disabilities, it has a raised QR code which leads to the brands audio guide, so if you have a sight impairment, you can hear just how to use this brush.

The fan brush, which is perfect for that subtle dust of highlighter, for using to apply your face mask or even for baking your makeup, is incredibly easy to use.  

Priced at just £8.99 it won't break the bank and all the proceeds from all sales go towards our charity Kohl Kares providing free workshops for a variety communities ranging from transgender and, cancer care support, as well as those with motor and visual disabilities.
