Thank you & current products I love

A big thank you to everyone for their kindness about our dog Bess getting put down. It's been a tough week (know it will continue to hurt for quite some time).  

Expect a wee tribute post to Bess next week with lots of lovely photos which were taken last spring by Cheryl at Edinburgh Dog Photography.

The following are products which I've found have pampered and cared for me this week. I think everyone should have them in their stash!


Marble & Milkweed Nourishing Body Oil 118ml* - I simply love this super moisturising oil which is scented with Cardamon, Sandalwood and Rose Otto (a few drops can also be added to the bath).  See my review here.  You can buy at a beautiful world.

bodhi Desert Rose Rejuvenating Face Oil 30ml - one of my all time favourite face oils. Smells divine and deeply moisturises the skin. It's a real treat.  See my review here.

Aromatherapy Associates Inner Strength Bath & Shower Oil 7.5ml - this bath oil simply wipes your worries away (or at least for a little while!)  See my review here.

Indie Lee Calendula Eye Balm 0.5oz* - I use this rich balm in the evening. It is an absolute lifesaver for reducing dark circles, minimising fine lines and brightening the eye area.  It is packed full of nourishing mango seed butter, Calendula Oil, Beeswax and Lavender Essential Oil.  Again, you can pick this up at a beautiful world.  Remember to use code INDIE10 for 10% off any Indie Lee product in March.  I also recommend Rosehip CleanserSqualane Facial OilLemongrass Calendula Body Lotion and Blemish Lotion.

Bloom Remedies Organic Sandalwood & Ylang Ylang Rescue Balm 50g* - a rich balm which can be used on dry skin areas on the face and body. It smells simply gorgeous and can help rescue low moods.  I've been using this on my hands, knees and elbows just before bed. Stuffed full of good things for the skin - Organic Shea Butter, Sweet Almond Oil, Coconut Oil, Sandalwood, Benzoin, Patchouli and Ylang Ylang Essential Oils.  Buy it here.

Therapi Orange Blossom Honey Moisturiser 50ml* - a certified organic product which combines honey, propolis and beeswax with cold pressed organic oils and plant butters. The range of products are formulated in-house and the company aim to do all they can to reverse the decline of bees and the loss of biodiversity.  This moisturiser is simply gorgeous, light as air, smells delicious and is truly uplifting.  It contains Neroli and Jasmine Essential Oils. Easily absorbed, it feels light and moisturising on the skin.  You can buy the range here.

Nourish Golden Glow Illuminating Face Shimmer 30ml* - this has given my skin a much needed glow this week! I wear it before foundation or mixed into foundation.  See my review here.  Buy at Big Green Smile.
