Happy World Kindness Day! Now more than ever, we can never be too kind ✨✨✨ thinking back to September and being part of the first @thekindfestival. Such a special day, brilliantly and heartfully put together by @peakradiance 💚

Scrubs a dub dub. 1 million denier tights, layers, cold & windy weather, dehydrating radiators means the battle against Sahara Skin is on. The following scrubs are in the arsenal for smoothifying various parts of le bod:⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ FACE ⁠⠀ 💚 @flowerandspice Instant Glow Calming Exfoliator - one of my standouts products from last year and still love it. Fruit acids with bamboo and unusual combo of lavender and fennel works so well. ⁠⠀ 💚 @oskiaskincare Micro Exfoliating Balm - how can i resist an exfoliator in my beloved balm form.⁠ MSM and silica grains to exoliate in a balm of rich plant oils and butters. ⁠⠀ Both of these have a mix of physical and chemical exfoliators to effectively polish as well as nourish my dry sensitive skin. ⁠⠀ BODY⁠⠀ 💚 @islaapothecary Bloody Orange & Vanilla Sugar Scrub⁠ - smells insanely good and leaves skin baby smooth without an oil slick in the shower. Sadly this has gone to scrub heaven as it's been reformulated due to worldwide vanilla shortage. Have no doubt the new formula is just as good. ⁠⠀ 💚 @odylique Coconut Candy scrub - mouthwatering. takes all my strength not to nibble. ⁠⠀ 💚 @naturallytribal Kola Nut scrub - this range is inspired by West African heritage and ingredients. Kola nuts⁠ remind me of my grand dad who chewed them so I have a soft spot for this scrub!⁠⠀ 💚 @emulsioncosmetics Floral Exfoliant - made from dried flowers. Most pleasing to sprinkle in shower gel. ⁠⠀ LIPS ⁠⠀ 💚 @henneorganics Rose Diamonds lip exfoliator - lip scrub of dreams (search blog for review)⁠⠀ 💚 @herbaldynamics Acai & Mango lip scrub - ⁠fun and fruity for occassional use. Could live without the added synthetic colour.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ So are you a scrub-er? 😉⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #wonderlustingbeauty #texturetuesday #skincareroutine #igtopshelfie #skincarecollection #textureshot #skincareshelfie #skinsta #igskincare #wonderloving #greenbeautycommunity #ecoluxe #veganbeauty #cleanbeauty #ingredientsmatter #lipscrub #sensitiveskin #bodyscrub #winterskincare #cleanbeautygang #kolanut #plantbasedskincare #sensitiveskin #skincaregoals #ethicalbeauty #consciousbeauty #ecobeauty #handmadeskincare #artisanskincare ⁠⠀

Can you believe it's 50 days to 2020?!!!😱⁠😱😱⠀ ⁠⠀ Starting to think about some of my 2019 skincare faves and discoveries. @loveabsoluteskincare will certainly be making my annual #wonderloving list! Head to IGTV or search blog for my chat with the founder of this gorgeous artisan skincare line with a mission to be truly sustainable beyond the buzzwords.⁠ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ⁠What have been your skincare standouts so far this year?⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ⁠ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #wonderlustingbeauty #oiljunkie #consciousbeauty #artisanskincare #loveabsoluteskincare #ingredientsmatter #britishseedoils #madeinlondon #jasminelover #ecobeauty ⁠#indiebeauty #greenbeautyfinds #veganskincare #ethicalhours #sustainableskincare #veganbeautyuk #skincareroutine #365skincare ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #wonderlustingbeauty #oiljunkie #consciousbeauty #artisanskincare #loveabsoluteskincare #ingredientsmatter #britishseedoils #madeinlondon #jasminelover #ecobeauty ⁠#indiebeauty #greenbeautyfinds #veganskincare #ethicalhours #sustainableskincare #veganbeautyuk #skincareroutine #365skincare ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀

Grey Mondays = reminding myself of the magnificent Monday blues I’ve been lucky to see this year. I visited St Lucia for the first time and was smitten. Have you been to any dreamy spots? #nonsarcasticblessed #wonderlustingworld #lovecaribbean #stlucia #bourgainvillea

Down to the last few drops of this spectacular serum 😍 (Vitamin D +Ergothioneine Deep Serum to give its full name) brimming with the magic of mushrooms from @labellafigurabeauty purveyors of bewitching skincare. Such an elegant, innovative formulation designed to strengthen and repair skin. Much needed in this cold weather. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ It has a zesty pink peppery scent that lifts the spirit and the ingredient list reads like a lavish banquet for your face – black truffle, mushrooms, moringa, seabuckthorn, guava, cherry blossom and more! Soooo good. I find Vitamin D makes such a difference in making my skin feel protected. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Have you tried this serum or any other good Vitamin D ones you'd recommend?⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #wonderlustingbeauty #labellafigura #ecoluxe #greenbeautycommunity #artisanskincare #wonderloving #vitamindserum #skincareroutine

I am seriously solar powered so the change of season hits me hard. Anyone relate? 🙋 #summerlover⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ So it's the start of my annual Operation 'Make Your Own Sunshine' to get through autumn/winter. Colour and pattern fill me with joy and are massive mood lifters for me. So I surround myself. Currently boosting my joy fix is this beautiful illustrated 'Swimming Tiger' silk scarf by @bex_parkin. Also available as a print alongside a number of other fab tropical/botanical designs. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Would make a lovely gift or treat for yourself! #notanad⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #supportsmallbusiness #illustration #bexparkin #mymondayblues #swimmingtiger #sustainablefashion #fashionaccessories #madeinbritain #surfacepatterndesign #giftsideas #etsy #animalprint #patternlover #jungleprints #giclee #illustrator #tropical #wallart #artwork #etsyuk

I’m not one to use the word “miracle” but within 90 minutes of applying this oil to my extremely sore knee (bruised and swollen from managing to bash it against door edge) I went from hobbling down stairs in pain to doing the Riverdance. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Talking about @fushiwellbeing 5% CBD oil. This blend contains full spectrum CBD extract in a mix of hemp seed oil, MCT coconut oil, sea buckthorn and black cumin oil which together help boost the body's absorption of CBD. Fushi hand blend a range of wellbeing products, made from ethically sourced ingredients in their London studio.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ The instructions on the packaging state to put drop under tongue - enters bloodstream quickly over swallowing where it has to make way through digestive system first. However the smell is pretty pungent and not exactly mouthwatering thanks to the black cumin seed oil and I found the results so effective rubbing in directly to areas of soreness, I applied topically instead. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Also worked wonders for a friend recovering from shoulder surgery who wasn’t keen on taking any opiates. As well as a team taking part in a 24 hour endurance cycle race that I was unofficial (witch)doctor for. During training cycling 30 miles a day there was minimal discomfort and muscle soreness eased quickly. Alongside stretching, magnesium baths, additional protein etc. BTW CBD is not a performance enhancer or banned by any world sporting bodies!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Have you tried CBD for pain relief? (reminder that if you're on any medication get medical advice first)⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #wonderlustingwellbeing #fushiwellbeing #cbduk #holisticliving #blackcuminseed

I have a pal who can't bear the thought of natural skincare. She thinks handmade means covered in cat hairs loooolz. I'm working on her 😉⁠ Any fellow green beauty fans have this struggle?!⁠⠀ ⁠⁠⠀ So for those who can’t bear to part from a lab coat and "Dr" seal of approval. Here's a range made with natural ingredients ➡️ @goldfadenmd. Created by dermatologist Dr Goldfaden (my inner Shirley Bassey says this like Goldfinger)⁠. When I need my skin to glow stat, I cleanse then mask, serum and massage with the following: ⁠⠀ ⁠⁠⠀ ✨ Skin Skin Balancing Mask - contains enzymes so I was bracing myself for the sting.....nothing. Key ingredients are jojoba, malic acid and gingseng. For my dry sensitive skin it's a gentle and effective exfoliating mask. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ✨ Brightening Elixir - this is like a multivitamin serum with Vitamin B (Niacinamide), Vitamin C (9% stable - L Ascorbic acid), Vitamin E alongside Ferulic Acid and Hyaluronic Acid. Antioxidant rich to tackle free radical damage. Haven't seen a dramatic difference in dark spots (always a tough job on black skin) but it does make the skin overall bright & radiant. Pump opaque packaging so minimal oxidation and stays stable. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ✨ Fleuressence Native Botanical Cell Oil -just calling this an oil blend would be rude. This is an elixir. Not quite fountain of youth but close. A real glow getter. Blend of botanical extracts including green tea, blue algae, nettle and milk thistle and oils including Kalahara, marula, baobab, mongongo. Only spanner is that this is very pricey. Over £100 for 30ml. If you've got a champagne budget knock yourself out, you won't feel ripped off with the results. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ <press samples>⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #wonderlustingbeauty #goldfadenmdskincare #goldfadenglow #cleanbeauty #skincareroutine ⁠#dryskintips #plantpowered #brighteningserum #plantpoweredskincare #healthyskin #cultbeauty ⁠#informedchoices ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀
