Eleni and Chris facemasks : Glow, Detox, Hydration

If you keep up with us here at The Amazing Blog, you'll know we're fans of the Scandinavian hair and skincare brand Eleni and Chris So naturally we were thrilled that we get to review all three of their new Sincell Face Masks. These sheet masks are perfect for a quick and easy pick me up for any age or skin type and can be easily catered to your skincare needs, whether you need some added Glow, a Detox, or a bit more of a Hydration boost.  


What makes these sheet masks stand out amongst the crowd are the pure ingredients that are only found in the dreamlike landscape of Scandinavia. Your skin will quickly crave unique ingredients like the cloudberry extract found in the Glow Sincell Mask, which is renowned for its ability to increase cell production by 22% within 24 hours to smooth your skin tone, leaving you with nothing but a natural glow. Scandinavian glacier water and SEA3Oil are two more key ingredients carefully sourced in Scandinavia and then infused in the ultra-fine fibres of each mask to retain the delicate osmotic balance of your skin.

The Detox Sincell Mask is also packed with grapefruit, oat and liquorice root extracts, which protect your skin against all those toxins and free radicals. Last, but certainly not least, the creamy Hydrating Sincell Mask is sure to bring back that much needed moisture that the winter weather has sucked away. The apple extract, cocoa butter, hyaluronic acid and sage leaf extract will instantly rehydrate your skin while also improving its ability to keep that moisture in its place.


These user-friendly sheet masks go on dry skin; no water necessary means one less step. These sheet masks give a great creamy consistency, they also don't contain any fragrance or mineral oils which is a huge plus. Leave on the face for 15-20 minutes, remove and gently massage any excess into the skin. Eleni and Chris recommend using the mask 1-2 times a week for good results. If you’d like to get your hands on these revolutionary sheet masks first, you can purchase them individually for £9 or a 6-pack for £49 here.

Bodhi Desert Rose Rejuvenating Facial Oil

As beauty junkies, at The Amazing Blog we have jumped on the bandwagon of treatment oils and we just can't get enough of them - no matter if we use them on our hair, our body or we add them to our skincare routine, the results always seem to be fantastic. A few months ago we featured on The Amazing Blog the Ylang Ylang Incensa Sensual Body Moisturizer and the Bath & Shower Therapy by Bodhi, and today it's the turn of their Desert Rose Rejuvenating Facial Oil. This exquisite face oil claims to improve the skin tone, refine skin and diminish fine lines leaving the skin radiant, feeling softer and looking youthful.

Rich in essential vitamins, antioxidants and fatty-acids, this oil is created to intensely hydrate the skin, helping stimulate skin cell rejuvenation and increasing cell regeneration. The key active ingredients are: Bulgarian Damask Rose Otto (great emollient and radiance boosting), Organic Moroccan Argan Oil (very rich in fatty acids and cell integrity preserver), Rosehip Seed Oil (helps diminishing the signs of aging and restores the moisture balance), Tunisian Neroli Oil (improves skin's elasticity), Kukui Nut Oil (rich in antioxidants for younger-looking skin), Strawberry Seed Oil (improves skin tone and protects the skin from free radicals), Evening Primrose Oil (revitalises tired and mature skin) and Vitamin E (a powerful antioxidant that helps premature aging). Each 30 ml bottle oil contains approximately 320 fresh roses, as it takes about a million roses to produce 1kg of oil. The final result is an ultra-fine and luxurious feeling oil and leaves your skin juicy and plumpier.

Even though I'm in my mid-twenties and I don't suffer from fine lines, I do have dehydrated skin and I've found that the Bodhi Desert Rose Rejuvenating Facial Oil has helped me improving the condition of my skin, leaving it supple, hydrated and glowy.
