We recently discovered a wonderful luxury brand that we all adore in the office: Noble Isle. We particularly enjoyed thair Body Hydrator which refreshed and moisturised our skin.

The Body Hydrator is truly marvellous! It is a light gel based moisturiser that cools and tones when applied, helping to nourish and refresh your skin. With a delectable scent, the product quickly absorbs into the skin, smoothing it while leaving the light and divine fragrance of bittersweet rhubarb. This product has a unique twist as it's extracted from a rhubarb farm in the Yorkshire Triangle, giving it all the goodness of Britain in the bottle.

Black Edition Liquid Mouthwash - Diamond Whites

Staying healthy is very important to most of us, but sometimes oral hygiene is overlooked past a quick brush of your teeth in the morning and night. The Amazing Blog has been trying out a new mouthwash by Diamond Whites‘Black Edition Liquid Mouthwash.’

The product is an oil pulling mouthwash with coconut oil. The oil is naturally antibacterial and the technique has been used for thousands of years as an Indian Ayurvedic remedy. Diamond Whites have created their modern version by adding a selection of essential oils chosen for their antimicrobial and soothing properties that work to reduce the amount of harmful bacteria in the mouth. Do not let the dark colour put you off! The unconventional colour is due to the addition of activated charcoal, a substance that has been used for centuries to cleanse and absorb toxins.

To use the mouthwash, simply shake the bottle and swish roughly 15ml of the wash in your mouth for 10-15 minutes. As the oil makes contact with your teeth and gums, microbes are drawn away from your mouth and attracted to the oil like a magnet. The oil ensures to reach those hard-to-reach places in your mouth that brushing misses. According to Diamond Whites, the oil needs to be swilled around for long enough for the oil to turn a milky white, which indicates that bacteria has been pulled away from the mouth.

The end result is a beautifully fresh and clean-feeling mouth. With continual use, the mouthwash will gently whiten the teeth as well! The Black Edition Liquid Mouthwash is made with organic coconut oil and peppermint essential oil, all wonderful ingredients that will leave you feeling squeaky clean.

Eye Feature - Friday Favourites

Now we don't know if eyes really are windows to the soul, but at The Amazing Blog, we do know that eyes can be very telling! Puffy eyes reveal a lack of sleep, bright eyes allude to healthiness, and panda eyes say that maybe you had a little too much fun last night! As such, we have decided to dedicate this Friday to some of our favourite products and all of them are items that we believe really help our eyes tell the story we want!

 

The first miracle product is Skinshop's Dry Eye Concealer. If you have any pesky little imperfections you want to hide then this is the concealer for you. While it easily conceals any dry, red and flaky areas around the eye, it also helps to treat them!

The concealer is able to treat these issues because of two key ingredients; Cardiospermum and Biolin. Cardiospermum is a natural ingredient that helps calm dry and irritated skin. Whereas Biolin, which is a skin prebiotic, helps repair damaged skin by feeding it healthy skin flora, so it injects and traps a much-needed boost of moisture to your under-eyes.

This concealer comes in a natural skin tint that will brighten the under eyes. To use this product, apply dots under the eye using either a finger or the silky brush applicator and blend to achieve the best results.

Concealer is a great trick to keep the area around your eyes looking youthful. You can purchase the Dry Eye Concealer here for £11.95.

Eye serums can give fantastic results if you incorporate them into your daily skincare routine, and we think that NCN is producing one of the best we've ever seen. Their Eye Fix is a fantastic product for producing more youthful looking skin in the surrounding areas, which helps to make your eyes seem brighter and clearer. The roller-ball serum is a combination multiple peptides and actives, full of antioxidants that help protect and repair the delicate surrounding skin. Eye-Fix contains a lot of ingredients that work to moisturise and smooth the skin without making it too heavy. The stars in this product are Regu-Age and Eyeliss, ingredients that contain an abundance of Vitamin E and antioxidants that help protect and rejuvenate the collagen in the skin and increases the oxygen levels in the eyes delicate tissues.

This product is so easy to use and will quickly become a part of your routine.To apply, simply sweep the roller-ball around the eye and lightly pat into the skin with your finger. For best results and to start feeling the benefits straight away, we suggest using this twice a day. NCN’s Eye-Fix is suitable for all skin types and ages, and we think the earlier you start looking after your skin the better the results will be as you age. So if you are looking to delay the effects of ageing, then this is the product for you. It truly is brilliant for long-lasting hydration.

You can buy NCN’s Eye-Fix here for £17.99.

Last on our list is the Prickly Pear Eye and Face Elixir from URB Apothecary. The elixir is comprised of three oils; pomegranate seed oil, rosehip oil, and cold-pressed organic prickly pear seed oil. The prickly pear seed oil is a super ingredient as it contains 150% more vitamin E than argan oil. We loved that the oil absorbs quickly, and the fatty acids and antioxidants penetrate deep into the skin.

This product is excellent at brightening dark spots, fading hyperpigmentation, and reducing the appearance of wrinkles. It can be used by people of ages, as well as to address a multitude of issues. It's excellent for problem skin especially as the rose, clary sage, geranium and helichrysum essential oils help balance the skin's natural oils while encouraging new cell growth. You only need a few drops to cover the face so the elixir lasts a long time, which is always a plus in our books! To apply simply tap the oil gently onto the skin under the eyes and use your ring finger to blend in upward strokes.

You can get the Prickly Pear Eye and Face Elixir by URB Apothecary here for £69.03.

At The Amazing Blog we had already tried some of the handmade products from Swedish Handmade, so this time we were excited to test their Hand Cream and Lip Balm.

The Swedish's hand cream is available in two scents: blue lavender and vanilla. Similar to the hand soap we reviewed here, the packaging is an elegant design that works well as the main focus is on the product itself.
