Janssen Cosmetics - Dry Skin Range

When we received Janssen Cosmetics here at The Amazing Blog, I was over the moon because the products were designed towards the dry skin I unfortunately am blessed with.  

We were lucky to receive a cleanser, a firming tonic and a day vitalizer. First off, I tried the Mild Creamy Cleanser. This cleansing lotion leaves skin feeling clear and protected both during and after cleansing. It is rich in natural fatty acids and also vitamins A, E and D. Use this product daily to gain the full benefits of the cleanser. The creamy consistency is particularly easy to apply and wash off.

I also tried the Radiant Firming Tonic which I thought was brilliant as my pores were visibly finer and my face felt refreshed. The tonic contains active ingredients which include soluble collagen which is profoundly moisturising and firming to skin. It is important to find a toner that does not dry out your skin, and this toner is super moisturising and left my skin looking radiant.

Lastly I tried the Day Vitalizer, which is a moisturising day cream. Once again the product's light consistency was easy to spread on my face and was rapidly absorbed. This moisturiser contain four active ingredients including Hyaluronic acid, Codium Tomentosum, Imperta Cylindrical and Macadamia Oil, each with their own incredible benefits to your skin.

Janssen Cosmetics have a massive range of products which we would recommend browsing here. Prices for products in the Dry Skin range start at only £20.00. I am really in love with this product range and will definitely be adding them to my beauty skincare regime. 

Botanicals Organic Skin Care Facial Collection

blog As most of our daily readers already know, at The Amazing Blog we love any kind of products that are hand made and organic. After hearing about Botanicals skincare from a couple of my friends I knew I had to make it a point to try out their facial collection. We were all pleasantly surprised when we received the Facial 'Try Me' Collection: Chamomile & Mandarin. There was a little something for everyone to take home at the office.

Botanicals Skincare Company uses only the most natural and organic ingredients and are all hand made in small batches to preserve the quality of all their products. After learning about this, we knew we were all getting a great product to sample. I luckily ended up with the Skin Tonic and Green Clay Nourish Masque, which I was secretly pinning for. All in all I was excited to sample these two different products. I had Sunday off so I knew this would be the perfect time to test out these new products.

On Sunday I decided I wanted to treat myself to a mini facial so I tried out the Green Clay Nourish Masque. After applying a thin layer and letting it really soak into my skin for approximately 10 minutes, I then used a hot towel to gently scrub it off of my face. It left my skin feeling refreshed and hydrated – while also leaving me in a great mood, but that maybe because I finally got 10 minutes to myself. After treating myself to the mini facial I decided to try the Skin Tonic. At first, I was hesitant, in the past I have found that most Skin Tonics tend to dry my skin out, thankfully that wasn't the case. I applied a small amount of the Skin Tonic lightly on my face and it was quickly absorbed. I was impressed with how hydrated my skin still felt. The Skin Tonic also allowed my mouisturiser to last longer – which was a great added bonus that I wasn't expecting.

I would highly recommend the "Try Me" set that Botanicals Skincare offers. You are able to test out an assortment of their products and then decide which ones you wish to purchase. It's a great way to quickly figure out whether or not you like the brand without the commitment of purchasing a full sized product. You can buy your own  "Try Me" collection facial set for  £37.50 . Let Botanicals help you figure out which facial serum, skin tonic, or nourishing masque works best for you and your skin type. If you ask me this sounds like a great deal!
