Bravura London - First Cleanse Oil

Not enough people are aware of the importance of cleansing, here at The Amazing Blog we are determined to share our wealth of knowledge to achieve great skin. Bravura London have produced a First Cleanse Oil to ensure our skin is thoroughly cleansed to allow other skincare products to work to their full potential. Oil cleansers are fantastic to remove makeup or any dirt on the skin, then it should followed by a second cleanser to remove anything left behind. For anyone with oily skin do not panic, no matter what your skin type oil cleansers will perfectly clean and hydrate your skin.

The First Cleanse Oil contains a variety of fresh and natural ingredients, it contains safflower, coconut, avocado and Vitamin E oil, all infused with Lavender and Rosemary essential oils. Water is also added to give it a smoother and runnier texture; it glides onto the skin with such ease and removes even stubborn waterproof makeup. The oils used are selected for their benefits to the skin and ability to remove dirt without aggravating the skin, those with sensitive skin can breathe a sigh of relief. Coconut and avocado oil nourish the skin and vitamin E oil is a natural anti-oxidant, there is so much goodness packed into a product. The Lavender, Chamomile and Rosemary oils are soothing and purifying, we can finally go to bed without sore eyes.

 We loved that the oil cleanser was made from such natural ingredients and truly loved the fragrant sent and soothing effects when taking off stubborn makeup, as beauty enthusiasts we wear a lot of it. The oil does not feel greasy on the skin and comes off easily with a wet flannel; we do recommend using a second cleanser for optimum results.

The English Mineral Makeup Company - Mineral Foundation

When it comes to make-up, we always favour a flawless finish here at The Amazing Blog. However, we never like to look caked in foundation. So when The English Mineral Makeup Company  sent over their Mineral Foundation for us to try, we were happy to let our skin breathe whilst giving ourselves comfortable coverage.

One thing we found seriously impressive about the brand is the sheer range of colours to choose from. With 30 shades to choose from, whether you’re porcelain or ebony, their foundation shades literally have you covered. It’s so refreshing to find a brand that cater to every skin colour. The lightweight powder provides a decent amount of coverage, and buffs easily into the skin when using the brands super soft kabuki brush. Lasting all day, the foundation is also 100% vegan and 100% pure mineral, so it’s really pure enough to sleep in. Great for those who are environment conscious, or simply for those looking for a soft focus foundation, The English Mineral Makeup Company is certainly worth checking out.

Collgen - Face Serum & Night Cream

Here at The Amazing Blog we love trying products that promise to give us a glowing complexion. When we received the Collagen Face Serum & Night Cream from Collgen’s anti-ageing range we were eager to give them a try. The serum is designed to dramatically improve the firmness and elasticity of skin by increasing collagen production. While the night cream regenerates and nourishes tired skin. The combination of the two is a match made in heaven! 

Collgen is unique in its use of non-hydrolysed, biologically active type I marine collagen. Interestingly this form of collagen is sourced from the skin of fresh-water fish; it is easier for our skin to absorb due to the low molecular weight. Collgen have discovered that the collagen peptides in the serum also trigger our body’s natural process of collagen production.

The results speak for themselves, our skin feels smoother and fine lines reduced. The serum feels luxurious and cooling on the skin, though due to the natural ingredients there is no scent. Simply massage into the skin after cleansing and toning, then wait for the tightening sensation and results to follow. We loved the use of Aloe Extract and Lemon Balm Extract in the Night Cream, it felt extremely soothing and harmonizing on our stressed skin. Say goodbye to dry patches and hello to beautiful soft, smooth and supple skin!

Just because we get older doesn’t mean we have to look it, pick your Serum & Night Cream up here for £35.     

Siam Botanicals - After Sun Artisan Body Oil

After a long summer of holidays and sun exposure our skin can feel a little stressed. Here at The Amazing Blog, we want to give our skin some much needed TLC. Siam Botanicals have come to the rescue with their After Sun Artisan Body Oil; we had the chance to try this luxurious blend.

Although named an After Sun Oil, the usage doesn’t end there. As well as cooling and moisturising sun damaged skin, it also works as a clarifying massage oil. Siam uses 100% natural botanical oils that are compatible with the skins lipid layer, in plain English it absorbs into the skin quickly. We loved that surprisingly the oil had no greasy texture of residue, it simply provided lasting hydration, nourishment and protection.

Siam Botanicals uses only the finest natural ingredients, free from toxins and impurities. The After Sun Body Oil is made up of the usual blend of authentic Thai oils to make a rich, silky emollient base. But the potent fragrance is created from a combination of Coconut, Peppermint and Tea Tree. The minty scent gives of a soothing and relaxing aroma once melted into the skin, perfect for an evening massage. Their minimalist approach to packaging also lowers their impact on the environment.

Beverly Hills Formula - Perfect White Sensitive Toothpaste

Here at The Amazing Blog, we’re always looking for ways to brighten our smile. With coffee, red wine and other teeth-staining foods, it often feels like we’ll never achieve the pearly whites that we really want. So when Beverly Hills Formula sent over their Perfect White Sensitive Toothpaste, we were keen to start brushing our way to the perfect Hollywood smile.

Helping to lift those pesky surface stains that come from drinking a little too much tea; the Freshmint flavoured paste contains Hydrated Silica, perfect for getting us closer to a brighter smile. Formulated for sensitive teeth, it also contains Potassium Citrate, so that you can still enjoy hot and cold treats without waiting for the pain to kick in. As most whitening kits increase sensitivity, a toothpaste that helps to combat both issues is a godsend in our eyes.

Beverley Hills Formula also pride themselves in the low abrasion factor of their products, helping to protect your teeth whilst you brush. We just used the toothpaste as we would any other, and have noticed that our smiles are looking a little lighter! Hopefully we will have polished our gnashers to pearly perfection in no time at all, but at least for now, we know we’re tackling our sensitivity issues.
