Naturisimo: The October Edit Exclusive Discovery Box

As you know I can rarely resist a Naturisimo Discovery Box. October's edit is absolutely fantastic! It costs £22 and is worth £94 and contains 7 items with some full size.

I'd been desperate to try Aurelia London's Balance & Purity Citrus Cleanser and inside is a deluxe 30ml size worth £8 which will clean, balance and brighten the skin. 

I'm a huge fan already of Kiki Health's Magnesium Oil/Spray and inside the box is a full size 125ml and worth £12.50. See my mini review HERE.

I adore Plenaire's Rose Jelly (REVIEW) and am excited to try something else from the range. Inside the box is their 3-in-1 Tripler in a deluxe 30ml size and worth £18. This multi-tasking exfoliating clay can be used as a mask, exfoliator and cleanser. 

There's a full size 30ml worth £18 of Weleda's Almond Soothing Face Cream which is perfect for sensitive and dry skins. Its fragrance free and works wonders to calm and replenish.

I've not tried much from Inlight and inside is their Night Balm in a deluxe 7ml pot. This is worth £16. This 100% organic intensive balm will hydrate and nourish while you sleep. It's scented with lavender and bitter orange.  Pai Skincare's Bioregenerate Rosehip Oil 10ml is also worth £16. I've used this lovely product before and it'll firm, nourish and give the skin back it's glow!

Rounding up the edit is a mini tin 10g of The Natural Deodorant Co's Clean Deodorant in Lemon & Geranium which is worth £4. It's an effective natural deo with a gorgeous scent.

Another fab box. Did you pick one up?

July Empties

I'm not going to use anything else up this month so here are my July empties (if a product is marked * I very kindly received it free of charge for review):

Green People Neroli & Marshmallow Shower Gel* which I featured in my Love Lula picks in April. See my post HERE. This was lovely and I'd buy it again.

No Secrets Hand Butter One 15ml which I thought was more of a rich cream than a butter. Gorgeous scent and nice to use. Would maybe or maybe not buy again but no plans at the moment to.

Noble Isle Summer Rising Bath & Shower Gel 75ml which is one of my fav Noble Isle scents. Sure to buy again at some point. See my review HERE.

I absolutely adore Organic Work's Bergamot range. I used up the Shower Gel 300ml and Hand Wash 300ml* (review). I'll definitely buy both of these again at some point. 

I adore Kiki Health's Magnesium Oil Spray 125ml for soothing aches and pains. I've just cracked open another one as it's a staple in my stash. 

The Balance Me Hyaluonic Plumping Mist 10ml was a magazine freebie. I really enjoyed it and would buy full size.

The Organic Pharmacy's Magnesium Stress Complex 60 caps is another must have. They'll calm the mind, help with aches and pains and help with sleep problems. Already replenished.

I recently picked up some de Mamiel sample sizes which I've been enjoying. I definitely want to pick up the next Seasonal Oil full size! I also loved the Revitalising Body Serum. Great brand and products.

I received the de Mamiel 5ml First Fix in a recent Cult Beauty Goody Bag. Gorgeous, my skin loved it. Full size now on the wishist!

Rounding up my July empties is SOiL's Peppermint Essential Oil 10ml which is something I use a lot for diffusing and cleaning around the house (diluted).

What have you been using up this month?

My Must Haves: Naturopathica, Kiki Health, Sanctuary Spa, Kiss the Moon & Zing Organics

If an item is marked * I've generously received it free of charge for review purposes. These products are my must-haves (but not all on the same day as some of them contain similar ingredients):

naturopathica's CBD+ Unwind (30 capsules - £39.99)* I've been testing out these capsules and they really do what they say on the tin! Inside is 5mg of super concentrated full spectrum CBD which helps to relax and unwind and help you sleep. They are also formulated with Magnesium, Vit B1, Theanine and Chamomile.  I've found myself feeling less stressed and more chilled! Take one capsule a day.

I received KIKI Health's Magnesium Oil/Spray* 125ml in January's Love Lula Beauty Box. It increases the magnesium levels within the body. It helps with fatigue, muscle function and healthy teeth and bones. Spray onto the body morning and night and massage in (it does tingle slightly!) I've found it really helps an old knee injury of mine.

I simply love Sanctuary Spa's new wellness range. I reviewed two product in the range HERE. Their Calming CBD oil 45ml helps the body and mind relax and relieve stress - it's also got a gorgeous scent. Use it on pulse points for instant relief or in the shower or bath.

The whole Kiss the Moon range is simply exquisite. Their CALM After Dark Sleep Balm* is scented with exotic Jasmine and Ylang Ylang, grounding Sandalwood and soothing Roman chamomile. It helps you have more restful and deep sleep. See my review HERE.

Rounding up my must-haves is Zing Organics's gorgeous Fabacado Organic Hand & Body Butter in Softening Avocado, Wild Spruce, Frankincense & Lime 25g which is heaven in a jar! This rich skin loving butter melts instantly onto dry skin leaving it feeling comfortable and deeply nourished.

What are your must-haves?
