Top Products 2021: July to September

If a product is marked * I've been kindly sent it to review. Here are my top 10 for the period July to September:

Every Raven Botanicals product I've tried I've absolutely loved. It's always the sign of a good brand when you go back time and again. This is my 2nd bottle of unsung hero Solstice Facial Oil. See my review HERE.

I'm a huge fan of lovely ila spa and had to try their CBD range. As expected its super luxe and effective. See my review of their CBD Body Calm HERE.

It was great to try Blue Tansy Skincare's gorgeous Oil to Milk Cleanser which my skin loves. See my review HERE.

Miel Botanicals Herbal Sleep Balm is magic in a pot! See my review HERE.

I was lucky enough to win a giveaway prize of a discovery set from Organic Youth Skincare and I loved trying this carefully formulated brand. See my review HERE.

I'm nearly ready to start my 2nd tube of the fantastic Great Day Magnesium Body Butter by Neom. See my review HERE.

Yet more Raven Botanicals! I loved trying their Glow Potion* in July. Multi-tasking and quite wonderful. It'll give you a illuminating glow and make your skin gleam. I especially love adding it to foundation or body lotion for a healthy glow. Just magic. See my review HERE.

I tried DEI SKINCARE in July and fell in love with their Nourishing Face Oil. See my review HERE.

In August I tried Deerieo's Aurora Face Oil Serum* which my skin adored. See my review HERE.

Rounding up my July to September top picks is Antipodes new Glow Ritual Vitamin C Serum which gives the skin a natural glow. It's the perfect skin pick-me-up. See my review HERE.

August Empties

I'm not going to use anything else up in August so here are my August empties. If it's marked * I've kindly been sent the product to review. 

As you'll know I'm a huge fan of Butterwhips. I used up their Traditionally Floral & Exotically Tranquil Body Butters 25g each which were gorgeous. See my review HERE. Would buy again. Escentric Molecules Molecule 03 (30ml) I absolutely love this vertiver scent & have just opened a new one. I used up 2 sample vials - Miller Harris Poirier du Soir which is deliciously fruity & Kenzo Flowers EDT which is sublime. Would buy both full size. Tata Harper Hyaluronic Gel Moisturizer 10ml is perfect for summer. I had the pleasure of trying Scottish brand Deerieo & fell head over heels for their Aurora Face Oil Serum 10ml* review. It's on the wishlist! I simply adore Floral Street's Electric Rhubarb 10ml. I always have a back up! The Oribe duo were fab (Gold Lust Shampoo & Conditioner both 50ml). Really luxurious. I adore this brand!

Organic Youth Skincare Escape Organic Bath & Body Oil 15ml. I truly loved this stunning oil which is scented with Jasmine, Vanilla, Sweet Orange & Sandalwood - review. Buying next month!  It was good to revisit Temple Spa and I loved the La La Lagoon Bath & Shower Gel 30ml. I adore every Dr Hauschka product I try and their Rose Nurturing Bath Essence 100ml* is simply sublime. See my review HERE. It's on the wishlist! Siam Ginger is one of my favourite bath & shower therapy scents from Bodhi & Birch. Sure to buy again soon! I used their Botanic Dew Hand & Body Wash for hands and I love it's uplifting scent. Will buy again (both 200ml). Rounding up my empties this month is Organic Works Lavender Hand Wash 300ml* which is gorgeous. Will buy again at some point. What have you been using up this month?

*Deerieo Natural Skincare

*complimentary - AD 

I've been testing out products from Scottish based Deerieo Natual Skincare. Founder and Formulator, Karolina sent me a few items to try from the range which she creates with her mother using ingredients such as Sea Buckthorn, Oats, Chamomile, Lavender, Comfrey & Thistle.

I love the pretty packaging! Return five serum pipettes for 10% off a future purchase or reuse with your next bottle. The star product from the products sent to me was their Aurora Facial Oil Serum.

The Veil Cleansing Balm 50ml (£17)* is best selling and award winning. It has a luscious, rich and silky texture with a gorgeous aromatic aroma. Formulated with with skin loving plant oils and botanicals and scented with Lavender, Sweet Orange and Jasmine.

To use: warm a small amount in the hands before massaging onto the face and neck. It'll easily remove make up and daily pollution. It can also be used as a treatment mask. Remove with a warmed damp cloth. It turns cleansing into a ritual to be savoured.

I fell absolutely head-over-heels for Aurora Face Oil Serum 10ml (£27) which my skin seriously loves (I was sad when I used this one up!) It's formulated with organic and scientifically proven ingredients ingredients Bakuchoil, Coenzyme Q10, Vitamin C and E and Milk Thistle Seed Oil and has a sweet herbal type aroma. It'll stimulate collagen production, reduce hyperpigmentation, improve suppleness and elasticity, provide retinol like restorative benefits and regenerate the skin. Best thing is it's suitable for all skin types! 

To use: massage 4-6 drops AM onto the skin. Can be used with Daily Glow Face Cream or alone.

This makes my skin absolutely glow! It's one of my favourite products this year.

The final product Karolina sent me is a 40g pouch of their Secret Garden Facial Mask* (check out the Discovery Collection - the perfect try me/for holidays). The pouch retails at £10.50 and contains multiple uses. It's formulated with White Kaolin Clay, Chamomile, Comfrey, Oats, Green Tea, Aloe Vera and Rice Powder for gentle exfoliation. It deeply cleanses the skin and pores and is suitable for combo and inflammation prone skins. 

To use: add a tbs of mask to a bowl and add sufficient water to make a paste. Apply with a masking brush and leave on 10 minutes before rinsing.

I found my skin to be glowing after 1st use! Have you tried Deerieo Skincare? What are your favourites from the range?
