Atlantis Skincare – Cleansing Milk

If like us at The Amazing Blog, you find yourself battling London's daily pollution; then you'll know the toll it can take on your skin. We not only need good moisturisers and SPFs to help protect our skin, we also require an efficient cleanser to take away the daily grime. Today we introduce you to a new British skincare brand, Atlantis Skincare who have produced an organic cleanser: Glowing Skin Cleansing milk that we have put to the test. The creation of Atlantis Skincare was inspired by the beautiful island of Santorini, believed to be a lost part of the mythical Atlantis. This recently launched skincare company have developed seven new 100% natural and handmade products.

This creamy cleanser is made from 100% natural ingredients, 87% of which are organic. Some of the superstar ingredients include aloe vera leaf juice, rose otto, hydrosol and witch hazel. These powerful ingredients get to work to cleanse, hydrate, and soften all complexions. As an added bonus it can also be used as a makeup remover.

To achieve the best results, we suggest placing a warm washcloth on your face to open your pores, prepping your skin for a deep cleanse. To use the product itself, simply dispense 2-3 pumps of the Cleansing Milk onto a cotton pad and gently apply to your face and neck, for soothed, cleansed and softened skin. You can purchase a 100 ml bottle of Cleansing Milk from Atlantis Skincare here for £39.99.

Korres Santorini Vine Body Milk & Showergel

It’s all Greek to me! Here at The Amazing Blog we are so excited to use our new Korres products, straight from the beautiful islands of Greece.

All of the Korres skin products avoid the use of chemical substances like mineral oils, silicones, parabens, and propylene glycol, so we can use them with a clear conscience. Instead, they are all made of natural ingredients like medicinal herbs, Greek flora, natural actives and using renewable energy. They offer products for many different uses, including hair, skin, and fragrance. We tried out the Korres Santorini Showergel and Vine Body Milk. The Showergel is a lovely, all over body product with a gorgeous aroma of white grape and sea spray that fills the bathroom with it's relaxing scent. This can then be followed up, post shower with the Body Milk.The combination of almond oil, active aloe, provitamin B5 and shea butter provides long-lasting hydration while enhancing skin suppleness. It has a fresh, fruity scent of blossoming Greek vineyards that will make you feel like you are in the Mediterranean. So, when I reach for the body milk after enjoying the showergel, it's nice to get the feeling of being whisked away on a mini Greek vacation in a bottle. Also, the Body Milk is able to provide your skin with plenty of moisture without making it feel greasy.
