Daily Exfoliating Cleanser and Night Treatment – Altchek MD

 

Here at The Amazing Blog, we have come across countless anti-ageing creams and serums, yet not many that have preventive as well as corrective qualities. That’s why we are really excited to share these products, by Altcheck MD, with you that do provide these anti-aging aspects: the Daily Exfoliating Cleanser and the Night Treatment.

The Daily Exfoliating Cleanser is a preventive cleanser that reduces the visible signs of aging by revealing clean and smooth skin. This preventive cleanser does in fact work thanks to its micro-polish particles and calendula extract balances, which softly exfoliate your skin whilst also moisturising it to calm irritation. As it’s a daily exfoliating cleanser you can apply it every morning or evening by massaging it in for 30-60 minutes. For maximum results we recommend using the Night Treatment, as it helps restore and replenish your skin overnight to smooth lines and increase firmness. Finally the antioxidants included improve protection against environmental stressors. After washing your face with the daily exfoliating cleanser, apply the night treatment on to your face with a massage until absorbed.

Try this preventive and corrective routine with the Daily Exfoliating Cleanser for £12.50 here and the Night Treatment for £14.50 here.

Speed Shave- Body Verde

Sick of having to waste time on shaving? Here at The Amazing Blog we know shaving is just a vital job that needs to be done. We've discovered a new, secret product called Speed Shave  designed by Body Verde.

Speed shave is a new revolutionary product that we all need in our beauty boxes. This miracle requires no water and it doesn’t need to be rinsed off after applying… how great is that! This ready-to-use lotion gives your skin a super-smooth shave and is an easy product to use on a daily basis. All you need to do is apply the product, shave, then go. It is a unisex product that you can use on legs, face or body and has special ingredients that minimize razor cuts, burns and in-growing hairs.  It is perfect for the modern day lifestyle where we are all a bit too busy, it can be used by any razor, and also can be used as a moisturiser in between shaving. This no mess lotion is fueled with natural ingredients including olive oil, green tea and is also ideal for all skin types including sensitive skin.

Speed shave is available to purchase here from Amazon for £9.97. 

Cacay Oil - Cacay Naturals

At the The Amazing Blog we are always searching for new products that will leave our bodies healthy and nourished. We also love multipurpose products, that’s why we were pleased when Cacay Natural sent us their Cacay Oil.

Straight from the Amazon, Cacay oil is harvested from the highly nutritious nut from the Cacay fruit in Columbia. The edible, protein rich fruit has been used by indigenous Amazonian people for centuries. It is 100% organic and 100% natural, suitable for vegans plus it is cruelty free. It's rapidly being held as the new Argan oil as it contains 50% more vitamin E and twice the amount of lineolic acid than Argan oil, as well as being three times richer in vitamin C than rose hip oil. 

We love how many different ways you can use this little miracle bottle. The multipurpose, unisex oil can be used as an anti-aging remedy, as a fighting acne cream, as a treatment for damaged cuticles and hair, you can also apply it to scratches or burns to aid in the healing process as well as using it to soothe skin after shaving. Unlike other oils that can leave your skin greasy, using a small amount of this product will leave you with no oil residue as it sinks in instantly. When used on skin, the oil will leave skin radiant and its emollient properties means you will notice the benefits from the long-lasting hydration. The skin will also be protected from irritation and the oil will improve elasticity and the appearance of wrinkles.

Cacay Naturals oil is the purest anti-aging skincare product. You can purchase this ultimate all-rounder you can purchase here for £32.75.

Perversion - Urban Decay

It's always fun to mix up your makeup look and here at The Amazing Blog, we love to find new make up products to use, so when Urban Decay's newest launch arrived in our office we were thrilled to test it out.

Mascara is definitely an essential to a makeup look and lashes are made to be noticed, so we can all flicker our eyes! The Urban Decay mascara perversion has a large wand so you can lengthen the lashes, creating volume and glamour. This black mascara will have you addicted to its high tech brush that separates your lashes whilst giving you the control to build up coats for a super black wide-eyed effect. The mascara has an ultra-creamy formula, so it glides effortlessly through, leaving clump free lashes and the highly pigmented shade is perfect to finish a dramatic smokey eyed look. 

Like Urban Decay says: for a "bigger, blacker and badder" look, why not try this mascara available here for £17.50.

Le Baume- Féret parfumeur

Trying to keep our lips looking luscious all year round can be like a full time job itself, here at The Amazing Blog we always like to try something different and today we’ve chosen Féret Parfumeur’s le Baume.


Féret Parfumeur is a 150 year old family run brand specialising in 100% natural ingredients, and Le Baume is no exception. The balm boasts its formula hydrates, repairs and soothes lips, with impressive main ingredients including Sesame seed oil, Shea butter and Beeswax which combine to create a smooth, silky texture for those kissable lips.The first thing we noticed was its luxurious scent of Honey and dandelion, a scent that transfers subtly on the lips too, and is perfect all year round. Though you need to apply regularly through out the day, the balm provides a silky soft base, suitable to cover with a lipgloss or on it's own for a natural lip look. Also, the tin is perfect in a bright yellow shade, meaning you'll always be able to find it in your handbag!
