AEOS Skincare Beauty Body Lotions

AEOS Skincare BLOG image It is not often that you come across skincare brands that make you re-think the purpose of your products. Here at The Amazing Blog, we take the time to research a company’s intentions before we decide to try their products. Recently, we came across AEOS Skincare, which is revolutionising the way we look at product creation and production. We were able to sample two of their Beauty Body Lotions, Awakening and Harmonising, and we must say that those are revolutionary as well.

AEOS, which stands for Active Energised Organic Skincare, has created a way of producing skincare that is very unique to their brand. Aura-Soma, their producer, has a biodynamic farm called Shire Farm, where all of the plants are grown that produce the AEOS range. This means that the plants are grown without the use of artificial fertilizers or growth enhancers, and are as pure and natural as they can be. They harvest and grow the plants in a way that each plant is tenderly cared for and it’s ‘being’ is as strong as possible.  All of the plant extracts and oils in the products are considered ‘alive’ by AEOS, so they are still living organisms when you use them. We were able to sample the AEOS Beauty Body Lotion in ‘Awakening’ and ‘Harmonising’. The Beauty Body Lotion in Awakening is packed full of nourishing plant extracts and essential oils like Spelt oil, Jojoba Oil, Argan Oil, Lavender Extract, and Calendula Extract. The colour is also derived from the Calendula Extract and is in no way artificial. The lotion also contains Crystal Essences from Opal, Fire Opal, Zincite, Quartz, Carnelian, and Orange Calcite. The scent is lovely, very plant like and does ‘awaken’ the senses. You are advised to use this product sparingly, shake it up a little, and apply it to damp skin so that it can be absorbed as quickly as possible.

AEOS Skincare has a three-phase system with their products, which uses the different products in the range to create an ideal face and body system for optimal benefits. To find out more information about the AEOS Beauty Body Lotion or any of their other products, visit their website, where you can purchase the lotion for £35.80. AEOS are currently running an amazing deal on their website where you receive the Harmonising Beauty Body Lotion for free with any purchase while stocks last.

Orchard View Naturals Capsule Collection

Orchard View Naturals BLOG image Here at The Amazing Blog, we realise how important it is to take care of your skin and treat it with essences of nature to keep it at its healthiest and purest. Apart from our love of different creams and lotions for the skin, we have come to realise the power of using essential oil blends to help maintain vitality. Recently, we found out about a new company called Orchard View Naturals that is combining beauty along with natural aromas to create oil blends that are suited for every different skin type imaginable. We were able to sample their Facial Oil Capsule Collection and were so nicely surprised by the range we had to share it.

The Orchard View Naturals Capsule Collection box contains five different facial oil blends in beautiful purple bottles, each suited for different skin types. Triple Rose oil is well suited for dry, dehydrated, dull and aging skin. It smells lovely, like a rose garden. The Orange Blossom oil is also suited for these purposes as well as mature skin and those who have large pores. People with normal to combination skin will find that Rose Geranium best suits their needs, while those with oily and breakout prone skin will like Tea Tree the most. Infused Marigold oil is recommended for those with sensitive skin. You will find that these oils are interchangeable most of the time, and the included leaflet really helps you determine what is best for your skin. One of the best parts of the oils is that they smell absolutely wonderful. They have been designed so that the scent lingers, but isn’t so strong as to upset sensitive noses. You will want to use these oils very sparingly, about one to two drops for each use and massaged into the skin with circular motions.

Orchard View Naturals can certainly boast about their skincare as it is all 100% natural and 99.5% organic. There are also no parabens, bleaching agents, or detergents in their products. These facial oils have been very carefully designed and are lovely for you or as a thoughtful gift to someone who enjoys skincare. You can purchase the Facial Oil Capsule Collection by visiting the Orchard View Naturals website where it retails at £45.

Beauty UK's CC Cream

Beauty UK CC Cream blog image Here at The Amazing Blog, the girls in the office have tried and tested more makeup products that we could count. So naturally over the years we have all perfected our makeup routine. However this was all disrupted with the latest trends in the make up industry, most recently with CC or Colour Correction Creams. So needless to say we were all excited to try out Beauty UKs new CC Cream and see how we could fit it into our makeup regime.

The Beauty UK CC Cream is designed to give colour correction by evening out the skin tone, as well as keeping the skin hydrated and safe from the sun. It has SPF 30, which makes it a wonderful choice for girls who don’t normally use foundation that contains SPF. It also boasts light reflecting pigments to help keep the skin looking radiant and flawless. This CC Cream comes in three different shades: Natural is the lightest, and for those of us that are pale, be wary because the undertone is slightly pink. Fawn is the medium shade, and I think this colour has a great natural looking undertone. Biscuit is the darkest shade available, and is a very tanned colour. Upon applying, it feels very good on the skin, and it feels very light and not cakey. A CC Cream is obviously not going to be as longwearing as a foundation would be, but it is great for light coverage. The best part is, this CC Cream is only £4.99! It costs a fraction of what many other CC creams cost, and you can still get great results from it.

If you want to get your hands on some of Beauty UK’s new CC Cream, visit their website or head over to your local Superdrug. Beyond the CC Cream, they have a large range of different face and eye cosmetics that can work very well with your new favourite base product!

Inlight Organic Skincare Line Softener

Image of the Inlight Organics Line Softener There is a widespread belief that outer beauty is the result of good health, proper eating and taking care of the body’s delicate organ systems. Here at The Amazing Blog, we know that having good genes plays a part, but we believe the rest is very true. Currently, there are endless amounts of beauty products available for the skin, everything from anti-acne to anti-aging creams from every brand imaginable. As you will know, we are passionate about organic products and sometimes it is hard to find something organic that really does work…

But then we heard about Inlight Organic Skincare, developed by Dr. Mariano Spiezia and his wife, taking  30 years of research and development. They have come up with a range of face and body products that are all 100% organic, and we were lucky enough to get the chance to sample their Line Softener.

We were particularly impressed with their Line Softener. It is a ‘luxury balm formulated to reduce the appearance of lines and scar tissue’. The texture of the balm is lovely -  smooth, but not greasy. It absorbs into the skin quickly and evenly. The primrose in the formula gives the Line Softener a lovely flower scent, however it is not overwhelming. Shea butter, macadamia and carrot oil are also in the formula, so it is very soothing and revitalising. The Line Softener also contains horsetail, nettle, and olive oil, which will work together to soften the skin. Because the Inlight range is all organic, the products are therefore free of alcohol and parabens, as well as containing no Genetically Modified ingredients. Another wonderful thing about the Inlight products is that their packaging is specially designed to be used without any glue, so they are truly an eco-friendly brand that we think everyone should try out.

If you are interested in getting your hands on some 100% natural and certified organic products from Inlight, like their Line Softener, visit their website for more details. The Line Softener retails at £64 for 30ml.

Inner-Soul Organics Romance Me Oil

Inner Soul Blog Image It is no secret that we love using body oils here at The Amazing Blog. Oils are very moisturising and nourishing in a way that lotions just cannot compete with. Whenever we find out about new oil products that look exciting, everyone scrambles to be the first one in the office to try it. We recently heard about a company called Inner-Soul Organics, whose founder is deeply knowledgeable about the power of oils and aromatherapy, and so we were excited to try out the Romance Me Oil.

Emma Coleman, the founder of Inner-Soul Organics believes that it is very important for our mind and soul to be connected with our outer bodies, which can be done through the use of aromatherapy and essential oils. All of Inner-Soul’s products have natural and organic ingredients like Omega Oils and Vitamins A, D, and E. The Romance Me skin oil is a blend from the Mind Body Soul range and is perfect for use at night and after a shower or bath.

It has Jojoba, Sesame, and Sweet Almond Oil to promote cell turnover and help with elasticity. Jasmine and Absolute Rose essential oils help to reduce skin imperfections and relax the mind and senses into a tranquil state. You will want to apply this on towel died skin, and pay special attention to areas with blemishes or scars. Because the ingredients are 100% natural, it absorbs into the skin very quickly and doesn’t leave any unpleasant textures. This is perfect for after a bath or shower, to calm the skin, and is great to use before bedtime, as the aroma is very relaxing. This is sure to become a staple product in your routine, and of course, one of your favourite oils.
