March Empties

Here's what I've been using up in March (a sunny photo for a change!):

John Masters Organics Rose & Apricot Hair Milk 30ml - this is a staple in my stash and I've just opened another one. See my review HERE.

Pureology Hydrate Conditioner 50ml - lovely to use, loved its minty scent and how soft and moisturised it left my hair. Sure to buy full size at some point.

Dr Bronner's Peppermint 18-in-1 Pure Castle Soap 237ml - love this and it's always in my stash to clean my make up brushes and sometimes the bath! You can even clean your teeth with it (in an emergency). I actually need to stock up on this.

Dr Organic Rose Otto Bath Oil 100ml - this is my dupe for REN's bath oil. Maybe not quite as luxurious but brilliant value for money and rather lovely. Just opened a new one.

REN Moroccan Rose Gold Glow Perfect Dry Oil 100ml* - an absolutely beautiful lightly scented rose oil which moisturises and leaves the skin looking glowy. I'll definitely pick another up again soon. See my review HERE.

Molton Brown Frankincense & Allspice Hand Wash 300ml - I adore this spicy scented handwash. I have a huge stash of these - gifted, bought in the sales and from Latest in Beauty (and hopefully enough to last all year as it's only available at Christmas time) See my review HERE.

Olverum Bath Oil 15ml - is a favourite for a deeply relaxing soak. See my review HERE. I recently bought a mini trio and I am now happy to find them as a Latest in Beauty pick. 

Weleda Pomegranate Regenerating Body Oil 10ml - a lovely body oil which I'd used before and now after trying it again will buy. 

Organic Surge 2 Minute Moisture Mask 150ml - a beautiful, rich (bakewell tart scented) mask which left the hair looking glossy and healthy. Really impressed with this product and will definitely buy again.

Flower by Kenzo EdP sample vial - this came in Perfume Society's Modern Classics Box (REVIEW). I found I loved that I loved it after thinking I hated it for years! It has notes of Bulgarian Rose, Parma Violet, Vanilla and Musk and is lush. Full size is now on the wishlist!

Aromatherapy Associates Deep Relax Bath & Shower Oil 3ml - this is one of my favourites. Sure to buy full size at some point.

4160Tuesdays London 1969 EdP 9ml - I actually finished two perfumes this month which is pretty much unheard of! I've already re-purchased this. See my thoughts on it HERE.

Weleda Lavender Creamy Body Wash 20ml - a lightly lavender scented wash which I'd maybe buy full size. 

Make Up Forever High Definition Powder 1g - I really enjoyed using this to set my make up. I have since picked up another mini via Love me Beauty and I'd buy full size.

Diptyque Vetyverio EdT 10ml - simply totally fell for this when I friend sent it to me and I've since bought full size. A really beautiful scent with floral notes and vetiver. Slightly woody with rose and floral notes. It's perfection!

AEOS Enriching Spelt Hand Cream 30ml** - which was one of the most luxurious hand creams I've ever used. See my review HERE.

MOA Fortifying Green Bath Potion Single Shot - huge fan of this beautiful bath oil which is perfect when you've got the flu or feeling run down. It's also good to use after exercise as it relieves any aches and pains. See my review HERE. I always have this in my stash.

John Masters Organics 100% Argan Oil sample - this can be used on the face, body and hair. I used it most for smoothing down fly-aways. Would buy full size.

Rosalena Bio-Active Love & Me Face Oil 2ml sample - nice to use but others in the range I prefer. So probably wouldn't buy this one full size. See my review HERE.

Organic Surge Extra Care Ultra-Light Oil Control Lotion

I've been testing out Organic Surge's Ultra-Light Oil Control Lotion (£18.50 - 50ml)*. I think it's the perfect moisturiser for Spring and Summer as it is light in texture and absorbs instantly.

Suitable for most skin types it helps to regulate oil production and prevent shine (which is great for my oily t-zone!).  It rejuvenates and nourishes the skin leaving it soft, radiant and moisturised. Oh and it smells gorgeous too!

Argan Leaf extract nourishes, Damask Rose Oil calms, hydrates and moisturises and Safflower Oil softens and smoothes.

See my reviews of other products in the Extra Care range - Replenishing Facial Oil*, Brightening Hot Cloth Cleanser* and Nourishing Rose Moisturiser & Hydrating Eye Cream*.

Organic Surge Tropical Bergamot Skin Perfecting Body Scrub

As you'll know I'm a huge, huge fan of Organic Surge's Tropical Bergamot scent so imagine my delight when browsing at Naturisimo when I came across their new body scrub (£12.50 - 350g) (it seems to be out of stock at the moment but sign up to know when it's back in stock - it will be worth the wait!)

Upon opening the jar I was surprised to see a pot of fluffy white cream! I tend to associate scrubbier scrubs with kilner jars! The scrub is gorgeous. It has small particles of natural pumice which gently polish the skin.

Suitable for all skin types it is lightly scented with Sweet Orange and Bergamot Essential Oils.  Massage over moist skin using circular motions. This moisturising and super luxe scrub will definitely be on my buy again list!

Have you tried this scrub?  What's your favourite Organic Surge Product?

Gift Ideas for Mother's Day

BYREDO Burning Rose Candle (240g - £50, 70g - £23) - this is a new candle fragrance and sounds gorgeous. With top notes of Rose Petals, middle of Rose Absolute, Violet & Leather and base notes of Birch Tree and Ebony Woods. I absolutely love the chic and stylish containers too.

Love Lula have a selection of tempting gifts. Joik's White Chocolate Bath Truffles (310g - £11.90) are perfect for mums who love to pamper themselves. See my review here.

MAULI Sacred Union Scent & Dry Oil (100ml - £64) - I recently purchased MAULI's Discover Mauli Gift Set (review coming soon!). One of the stand out products for me has been this deliciously scented dry oil. It is hand crafted in London and is made with nourishing oils and exquisite essences. Love!

Organic Surge Tropical Bergamot Body Scrub (350ml - £12.50) - this is my favourite scent from Organic Surge (I bought this as a little treat for me yesterday morning!). It combines natural pumice with Sunflower Seed Oil and essential oils of Sweet Orange & Bergamot. 

A Gift Voucher from Content Beauty & Wellbeing - these start at £25 and go up to £250! I think any mother (or any beauty lover in fact) would love this gift.

This year I'm giving my mum a beautiful bunch of flowers from The Wild Flower Shop and taking her out for lunch.

Organic Surge: Extra Care Nourishing Rose Moisturiser & Hydrating Eye Cream

Happy Valentine's Day!

As you'll know I'm a huge Organic Surge fan. You can see my love for the brand here.

I've lately been really loving using their Extra Care Nourishing Rose Day Cream (50ml - £21.50)* and Hydrating Eye Cream (20ml - £18.50)*

The Nourishing Rose Day Cream* is an absolute delight! It smells delicious and absorbs instantly into the skin - it's a keeper for me! It's suitable for normal. dry or mature skin types and leave the skin deeply nourished as well as smoothing out fine lines and rejuvenating the skin. To use: apply after cleansing to the face and neck.  You could use the Replenishing Face Oil* beforehand.

The Hydrating Eye Cream* is enriched with Jojoba Oil and is also suitable for normal, dry or mature skin types.  It is a light cream which melts easily into the eye area - Organic Surge say "Apply after cleansing with your ring finger, working from your lower outer eye clockwise for your right eye and anti-clockwise for your left"  It hydrates and brightens the under eye area.

Have you used either of these?  What's your favourite Organic Surge products?

Organic Surge Replenishing Facial Oil

I was recently sent Organic Surge's Replenishing Face Oil (30ml - £23.50)* to review. This oil is part of the new Extra Care range.  You can see my review of the Brightening Hot Cloth Cleanser here*.

The oil is enriched with Argan Oil, Yarrow Oil, Safflower Oil and scented with Geranium, Lavender and Bergamot Essential Oils. A super-lightweight oil (I initially thought it was too light for my skin - but upon using it regularly I was proved wrong!) which absorbs instantly and hydrates and rejuvenates the skin leaving it radiant and renewed.

Suitable for Normal-Dry, Sensitive and Mature skin types. It is 100% natural and 55% Organic and certified by EcoCert.

To use: apply a few drops after cleansing. It can also be used to add extra moisture to a face cream or mask.

I'm really impressed with the performance of this oil and it's one I'd buy.  Look out for my forthcoming review of Organic Surge's Hydrating Eye Cream*.
