Luminous I Day Cream & Luminous Macro Repair Eye Cream - La Curcio Skincare

At the Amazing Blog, it’s no secret that we adore beauty products, and we love to receive new skincare to see what’s the latest. We recently received two new products by the brand La Curcio Skincare; the luxurious brand sent us their Luminous I Day Cream and their Luminous Macro Repair Eye Cream to explore.

This luxury brand comes in gold platinum packaging; it is a quality brand that exude elegance. The first product we were sent was a day cream that you would apply after facial cleansing. This cream is an intense anti-aging moisturiser that neutralises redness. It is a combination of superior moisture and cellular protection. We recommend using this moisturiser daily to enhance your skin's immunity and to protect against environmental stresses. This day cream is suitable for all skin types; its light texture and subtle fragrance means it is great for sensitive and problem-skin.

The second product we were sent was an eye cream. It is a solution that works from within to repair the inner layers of the skin and improve issues such as puffiness and dark circles. This cream is suitable for all skin types and can be used in your day and night skincare regime. We found the cream provided deep hydration and we loved its outstanding antioxidant protection. We loved that the product also smooths and firms the skin around the eye area, whilst retaining the skin's natural moisture.

You can purchase La Curcio Skincare's Luminous I Day Cream here for £69.15, and their Luminous Macro Repair Eye Cream is available here for £46.37.

Amber Oriental Bath Crystals and Shea Butter - Morjana

Here at The Amazing Blog as much as we love a fast paced lifestyle, sometimes we need some down time, to relax and unwind. We received Morjana's 'Hammon Essentials' - the Amber Shea butter and Crystal Bath Crystals.

Morjana mixes their wealth of knowledge of Oriental beauty traditions and mixes it with modern ingredients, making it a unique and luxurious beauty brand. Firstly their Amber shea butter is a thick and creamy formulation; the butter is extracted naturally from nuts from the Shea tree, meaning it’s rich in essential fatty acids and vitamins making it a superfood for hair and skin. It has a subtle vanilla aroma and once applied sinks into the skin, moisturising it without leaving any greasy residue. The amber Oriental bath crystals are full of vitamins and trace elements and have a warm and captivating scent which lingers once dissolved. They make for a perfect bath addition, allowing you to sit back and de-stress from a busy day. The packaging is very Moroccan; rose gold lids with a floral design and orange labels which add to the luxurious feeling of the products.

Make time to relax and unwind from a busy day with Morjana bath crystals here for £ 31.96 and shea butter here for £ 36.96.

Lipgloss, Eyeshadow and Face Scrub - Uoga Uoga

This winter at The Amazing Blog, we are loving the deep, dark colours that we’re seeing all over the makeup scene. The brand Uoga Uoga are known for their natural, mineral based cosmetics, so we decided to try their dark Eyeshadow, Lip Gloss and Face Scrub.

One of their best-selling products is the Eye-shadow in the shade Just One Sip. It is made from pure natural minerals, with a burgundy warm matte finish that is soft and well-pigmented. This eye-shadow is long-lasting with great coverage all day and night, and we recommend using a primer to the eye lids before applying the shadow for a perfect finish. It also does not contain any synthetic colouring, so it is suitable for sensitive eyes as well. 

The second product from this brand is a natural Lip Gloss called Star On My Face, this lip gloss has a glossy, cherry tone which compliments all skin tones well. There are six lip glosses in their collection to choose from. Star On My Face is the darkest colour from their range, and is enriched with cherry extract and natural oils that will moisturise the lips with a non-sticky finish. Not only does this brand do make-up, they also do skincare products, including a natural face scrub called Go Nuts. This is one of their best sellers. This loose powder scrub can be mixed with either water or milk to create a facial cleanser, you can apply to the face by gently massaging and then rinse with cool water. The facial scrub is a mixed combination of almond and sunflower seeds which cleanses skin and remove any dirt from the face. The ingredients within the nuts will help protect your skin and nourish the face thanks to the protein and fatty acids and will help reveal the natural glow from your face.

Sebopure - Clarol

Acne can sometimes seem like an impossible barrier to overcome. Here at The Amazing Blog, we’ve discovered Clarol’s Sebopure, a cream that can purify and reduce excess sebum, which is often a cause for acne, that annoying result of a bacteria building up that eventually leads to break outs and congested skin.

Clarol skincare is a revolutionary skincare range for acne sufferers. Their products aim to strengthen, enhance and protect the body’s natural resources fighting acne without damaging surrounding skin. Sebopure is a cream that you can use to either leave overnight and allow it to soak in or during the day before applying other products. It contains an ingredient called Pixalia, a natural plant active derived from wild mustard leaf oil. This works to reduce the amount of sebum secreted by the glands, allowing the skin to be clear and preventing bacteria from building up and creating break outs, whilst increasing the skin’s good moisturising oils. The simple and small bottle is also perfect to carry around in your handbag or your travel bag.

For a natural, anti-acne alternative treatment try the Sebopure cream from Clarol available here for £12.95.
