White and Green Tea Exfoliators and Moisturisers - Ceremony

Here at The Amazing Blog, we have discovered the power of tea, and no, we’re not talking about the boost a late afternoon cup gives you. We were recently introduced to Ceremony, a brand that uses the highest quality Japanese tea as the cornerstone of their skincare products. Ceremony skincare blends the ancient philosophy of Japanese tea ceremonies with modern aesthetics and science to create a fantastic product that will leave you feeling pampered all day long.

Ceremony’s skin range is divided into their white tea and green tea products which really help to harness the individual benefits of the teas. Green tea has been shown to help treat acne, improve complexion and maintain youthful skin, making it perfect for oily skin types. White tea has been proven to reduce puffiness, prevent sun damage and is even known to help to avoid wrinkles as it aids in protecting the collagen and elastin in the skin.

We were lucky enough to try both the green tea and white tea versions of Ceremony’s moisturiser and exfoliator. Peach seed powder is used as the basis for both of the exfoliators. This is an excellent alternative to micro-beads which can damage the skin and harm the environment. The green tea scrub really helped to keep breakouts down due in part to the chamomile extract in the product. Both moisturisers gave the skin a new radiance, and our complexions flourished when used daily, in part due to the shea butter! We would recommend the green tea products for those with oily and combination skin, and we would recommend the white tea products for normal to dry skin types.

The green tea exfoliator can be purchased here for £17.50, and the moisturiser for £18.50 here

The white tea exfoliator can be purchased here for £18.50, and moisturiser for £20.50 here

KORRES Bath and Body Collection

I am always looking for new lines of body care products that moisturize and cleanse my skin but also smell fresh too! There are so many products out there to choose from so how can you possibly decide which ones are best for you? We at The Amazing Blog love the Korres brand, especially their new Fragrance Body Care Collection.

Our favourite body care product from this new collection is the White Tea, Bergamot, and Freesia Body Milk and Shower Gel. Both products include ingredients with vitamins and minerals that help hydrate your skin keeping it feeling fresh and energized. The White Tea, Bergamot, and Freesia Body Milk is the perfect body lotion for those living a fast paced lifestyle. It is light and moisturizes into your skin easily which is great when on-the-go. We absolutely love the airiness of this product. It not only feels great on your skin, but also moisturizes it deeply. The combination of provitamin B5, Shea Butter, and Jojoba oil enhances skin suppleness, while also providing long-lasting hydration. Other ingredients such as vitamin C and E, Zinc, and Antioxidant Enzymes enhance the skin’s immune system. The Shower Gel is also amazing and great for everyday use. The synthesis is based on Wheat Proteins, which form a protective film on the skin, maintaining its regular hydration level. Both of these products are great and smell fabulous.

The Shower Gels retails for £9.00 and the Body Milks retail for £10.00. The new Korres collection can be purchased on Oliver Bonas, Feel Unique, Asos, and Bath and Unwind online. We love Korres and their natural approach to beauty!
