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.

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.

Antiox, Face & Body Lotion and Soap - La Espiral Verde

We all aim to use the right beauty products to keep our skin soft and moisturised but do we know what ingredients are in the products we are using? Here at The Amazing Blog we strive to promote brands and products that are actually good for our skin and will benefit from using their products. So today, we want to introduce a brand we've just discovered called La Espiral Verde.

This company is a natural and organic manufacturer that specialises in body and face lotions, hair and body washes and soap bars. Many of their products are two-in-one cosmetics and their hero ingredient, Atlantic Seaweed, is a powerful natural addition featuring in most of the products. Also this unisex brand is suitable for all skin types and can be used by vegans.

We were lucky enough to be sent a range of products to review. Firstly Antiox, a face moisturiser that will regenerate and repair your facial skin; we tried both for normal & dry skin and for combination skin. It is advised to apply the product to your face with a circular massage technique until the product is absorbed. One of the two-in-one products we were fortunate to try was the lemon scented body and face lotion, that comes in a rose scent also. It’s perfect for people who seek a moisturiser that is suitable for face and body at the same time. The product is a non-greasy lotion that easily spreads over the skin keeping it soft and nourished. We also loved their soap which has a combination of seaweed and olive oil ideal for any skin type including delicate and sensitive. You can use it to wash your body, face and, surprisingly enough, your hair too.

The body and face cream is available to buy here for £17.50, you can also get the Antiox for £16.75 here and the seaweed soap is available to purchase in a pack of three for £11.65 here.
