No matter what the weather maybe, it is still nice over the winter season to have a natural glow. The team at the Amazing Blog we love to be tanned throughout every season, which is why we recommend the brand Bellamianta it, is a luxury self-tanning product.

What we loved about the Tanning lotion is how gentle and kind the product is to our skin and it is free from paraben, alcohol and any other harsh chemicals, we always like to promote products that will not harm us in anyway. Bellamianta focuses on enriched ingredients to provide you with the best experience using their products and keeping your skin hydrated, moisturised whilst having a long-lasting tan. There are natural fruit extracts in the product including mango, papaya and goji berry this will help provide a natural Bellamianta signature which is a golden tone.

This brand is luxurious they are keen to create products that are clean and not harming the skin. With self-tanning sometimes there can be an after odour that isn’t pleasant however using these products they have find a formula that will not give you the typical tanning smell which we were thankful for when using in the office and a few members in our team self-tanned at home and was pleasantly surprised the product did not transfer onto anything.

It is recommended to apply on clean exfoliated skin that has no deodorant, make up and perfume before applying the self-tan and it is recommended to wax or shave 24 hours before you decide to get golden. How to use this product is apply the lotion using a tanning mitt and apply with circular motions. You will also see how rapid the formula dries in a 60 second time scale. As this product is kind to the skin it is suitable to use on the face as it is gentle for the face plus suitable for all skin types and suitable for vegans to use.

The second product we received was the Bellamianta Rapid Mousse, similar to the lotion you can achieve an even golden olive tone to the skin that will dry in rapid time of 60 seconds. This mousse is bursting with natural ingredients and will be a go to skin treatment whilst applying this product the ingredients will work it's magic.Keeping your skin hydrated without the dreaded snakeskin effect or bad odour, you will have the lovely glow you desire but your tan will look even all over.

Hand Lotion, Hand Cream, Hand Wash, Candle - The Handmade Soap Co

Winter season has arrived and whilst it’s cold outside it’s important to keep your skin moisturized. Here at The Amazing Blog we understand the bad effects coldness can have on our skin. It’s better to be stocked up and avoid getting dry skin… rough as cracked hands have never been pretty. The Handmade Soap Co is perfect to keep your skin smooth and soft for the cold seaon.

The two hand lotions we received included the Lemongrass & Cedarwood which has a strong scent that leave your hands smelling gorgeous for hours, it is a light liquid creamy formula for your skin to absorbs it and keep your working hands feeling soft throughout the day. The second hand lotion was the Grapefruit & May Chang which has a fruity fragrance, really nice refreshing scent, easily absorbed to keep your hands moisturised.

Each range has their own stamp and signature which we at The Amazing Blog, really appreciated and even more liked the idea of this packaging. The next product we received was part of the Lavender range: a Hand Cream infused with a combination of lavender, rosemary thyme and mint. The lavender and mint are quite overpowering in a good way as it really shines through and smells so gorgeous it makes us want to eat it.  

The Hand wash from the Lemongrass and Cedarwood range also has a strong fragrance like its hand lotion but it compliments it really well. It is refreshing to use and we advise you to use the hand lotion after as their combination leaves your hands feeling smooth and soft with a lovely scent.

Finally, you can never have too many candles in winter time, when it’s cold and raining outside the best thing to do is cosying up in the sofa with a warm blanket, a hot cuppa, watching television and of course with nice scented candles… As each range has their own candle and diffuser it really adds more value and a unique touch to each collections. We tried the candle from the Sweet Orange collection an we loved it.
