Cacay Oil - Cacay Naturals

At the The Amazing Blog we are always searching for new products that will leave our bodies healthy and nourished. We also love multipurpose products, that’s why we were pleased when Cacay Natural sent us their Cacay Oil.

Straight from the Amazon, Cacay oil is harvested from the highly nutritious nut from the Cacay fruit in Columbia. The edible, protein rich fruit has been used by indigenous Amazonian people for centuries. It is 100% organic and 100% natural, suitable for vegans plus it is cruelty free. It's rapidly being held as the new Argan oil as it contains 50% more vitamin E and twice the amount of lineolic acid than Argan oil, as well as being three times richer in vitamin C than rose hip oil. 

We love how many different ways you can use this little miracle bottle. The multipurpose, unisex oil can be used as an anti-aging remedy, as a fighting acne cream, as a treatment for damaged cuticles and hair, you can also apply it to scratches or burns to aid in the healing process as well as using it to soothe skin after shaving. Unlike other oils that can leave your skin greasy, using a small amount of this product will leave you with no oil residue as it sinks in instantly. When used on skin, the oil will leave skin radiant and its emollient properties means you will notice the benefits from the long-lasting hydration. The skin will also be protected from irritation and the oil will improve elasticity and the appearance of wrinkles.

Cacay Naturals oil is the purest anti-aging skincare product. You can purchase this ultimate all-rounder you can purchase here for £32.75.

The first option is Olivos Liquid Soap, which is made with 100% pure olive oil obtained from the Edremit region in Turkey.

our next suggestion is the Willow Tree Lane Organic hand and body wash by Willow Tree Skincare. It has a beautiful natural summery scent as it is made with cedar, lemon, and rosemary. It's vegan friendly and organic and it is imported from Australia. The simplicity of the bottle design may not be the most extravagant, however the sweet smell and smooth skin that it leaves can't be beaten.

Our favourite product from their range is the Lux Handmade Soap, straight away when opening the lid it is oozes with the smell of the strong garden rose fragrance, the scent is gorgeous and refreshing it’s a great first impression.

Overall we were really impressed by the brand Swedish Handmade, as they’re unique selling point focuses on their natural ingredients here at the Amazing blog.  The product is really good for our skin; this soap has several key ingredients such as coconut oil, olive oil, sunflower oil, grape-seed oil, water and rose oil.   These combinations of ingredients are everything we need in a product to help our skin stay in good condition and keep our hands soft.

It's always fun to mix up your makeup look and here at The Amazing Blog, we love to find new make up products to use, so when Urban Decay's newest launch arrived in our office we were thrilled to test it out.

The balm boasts its formula hydrates, repairs and soothes lips, with impressive main ingredients including Sesame seed oil, Shea butter and Beeswax which combine to create a smooth, silky texture for those kissable lips.The first thing we noticed was its luxurious scent of Honey and dandelion, a scent that transfers subtly on the lips too, and is perfect all year round.
