Oxylent Multivitamin Supplement Drink

At The Amazing Blog we try to remain as healthy as possible ignoring temptations, minus the odd weekend binge of course. However when we received Oxylent Vitamin Supplement drink we realised how simple it was to obtain the vitamins and minerals we need without having to ingest multiple gigantic pills.

There are numerous benefits to drinking Oxylent rather than ingesting pills, first and foremost is the taste, frankly all the flavours are delicious, and the best we have ever tasted. Statistics also prove that taking a liquid supplement drink actually absorbs into your body more so than taking them in tablet form. Oxylent is an Award winning supplement drink, a 5-in-1 formula which contains vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, Amino Acids and Electrolytes. Electrolytes control the balance of fluid in the body therefore preventing dehydration and maintaining PH levels. Amino Acids transport nutrients and oxygen throughout the body and improve the functioning of your body’s immune system. All this in a little sachet which you consume daily or twice a day if you’re exercising, shake pour into your beverage.  

Also did I mention the beverage is energising, does not contain any sugar, 100% GMO free, zero Calories, Gluten Free, Dairy Free and does not contain any preservatives…..

Everybody needs to have this delicious effervescent beverage in their lives, it tastes good and is extremely beneficial to your health. You can purchase Oxylent in some health food stores including Whole Foods but also here online for £27.70….. What are you waiting for?

NAÏF – Baby Travel Kit

With the arrival of the Royal Baby a couple of weeks ago, it seems like the whole world (us included) has gone a bit baby mad! With an influx of baby friendly products sure to arrive on the UK market hoping to help Kate with her second babe, we here at The Amazing Blog have been on the look out for the crème de la crème of baby skincare. Dutch brand, NAÏF, offer a wonderful range of natural toddler treats fit for a king (or future queen). Their Baby Travel Kit offers miniatures of their most loved products, perfect for looking after your own little prince or princess.

Packaged in a sweet and environmentally friendly paper zip-up bag, the Baby Travel Kit comes with everything you need to comfort your little one whilst out and about. Adorned with cute little doodles, the kit consists of four travel sized baby products; Diaper Cream, Cleansing Wash Gel, Nurturing Cream and Softening Body Lotion, as well as a handy dummy cloth. With all of the products containing Natural Cottonseed Oil, as well as being hypo-allergenic and free from parabens, they’re perfect for nourishing your baby’s skin. Of course we couldn’t resist trying the products on our adult skin too. Our favourite is the Nurturing Cream. Packed with soothing Sweet Almond Oil and conditioning Avocado Oil, it really did make our skin feel baby soft, and left us wondering why we hadn’t tried out baby products on our own skin before.

Help your little cherub to feel like royalty with the NAÏF Baby Travel Kit. Pop over to their website and pick it up for £12.

Hammam Ritual - Luxury Black Soap with Argan Oil

Here at The Amazing Blog, we love learning about international beauty secrets to allow us become more diverse while simultaneously helping our beauty routine. Our latest cultural beauty discovery is the Moroccan black soap from Hammam Ritual. The products and company are based in France, but the products they make are inspired by Moroccan culture and tradition.

Historically, a hammam ritual is a weekly practice where Moroccan people go to a community bathing area in order to cleanse themselves and catch up on local gossip. Black soap in particular was a product commonly used during these ancient cleansing rituals, and its benefits are still praised today. It can be used as a scrub or a cream, and it works to exfoliate, hydrate and soften the skin with ease.

The soap is 100% natural and plant-based, made up of water and crushed black olives and occasionally enhanced with eucalyptus. It works even on sensitive skin, while it eliminates toxins and impurities.

At the office, we tried the Hammam Ritual Black Soap enriched with Argan Oil, which you can purchase here for €19 (it's coming directly from the European website in France, but we hope it will be available in pounds soon). We loved the light scent and ultra-moisturising power of the soap, which left our skin super soft and smooth. 

Mokhado Oils - Starter Pack

Our team here at The Amazing Blog is passionate about healthy eating and cooking our own meals. We recently found out about Mokhado cooking oils from South Africa, and suddenly our cooking experience has transformed for the better.

The range of oils includes three different varieties – Apricot, Avocado and Macadamia – which each contain their own unique flavour and taste. All three oils are cold-pressed, extra virgin, pure, heart-healthy and suitable for vegans. With monounsaturated fats and natural vitamins, they provide your body with healthy fats and antioxidants. The bottles are even coloured-coded and feature a simple and beautiful design.

The founder of the oils, Chrisjan Van den Berg, is proud to showcase the oils his family has known and loved for years. All of the ingredients used to make the oils are never wasted either, since the remaining pits are used as animal feed or compost.

We loved adding the oils to vegetable stir-fry and when baking meat and fish. The macadamia oil, in particular, tasted wonderful when added to something as simple as plain rice. It was so easy to enjoy the oils when we remembered how healthy they are, in addition to their flavourful taste. If you're feeling a little more adventurous, then Mokhado have a range of delicious recipe ideas to choose from, including a fantastic guacamole.

To try the full range of Mokhado oils, head here and get your own set of three for £20. You can also purchase individual bottles of whichever oil you choose for £6.99 each. 

Environ Body Pamper Packs

Here at The Amazing Blog, we understand how important it is to relax and de-stress after a long day at work. With the new Body Pamper Packs from Environ, we can kick back and treat ourselves with ease. Each pamper pack comes with the Environ Hydrating Lotion and Body Oil, designed to moisturise and nourish skin in need of a little TLC.

The AVST Body Oil contains firming and antioxidant properties designed to keep your skin looking fabulous. With high doses of Vitamins A, C and E, you’ll be able to fight sun damage and anti-ageing. It even works to heal stretch marks and scars with natural ingredients that target dry and sun-damaged skin. At the office, we appreciated how the oil made our skin feel luxurious and nourished instantly. It works best when applied after showering and when used in combination with the AVST Body Lotion.

While the body oil works to nourish all areas of skin, the AVST Body Lotion works to target rougher areas of skin such as elbows, feet and knees in need of a little extra moisture. Its ingredients are gentle, non-toxic and safe for use on sensitive skin. It gives skin a smooth surface, which can keep your tan looking even and fresh as the summer approaches. When you combine the lotion with the body oil, the two products will work together to treat skin affected by sun damage. We loved the lightweight feel of the lotion and the subtle scent.

Full-sized versions of both products (£39 each) are available from select beauty salons and aesthetics clinics nationwide, as well as at Harvey Nichols.

**GIVEAWAY** We have TEN Pamper Packs, filled with a trial-sized version of the oil and lotion to give to you. Please enter our giveaway by emailing us with your name and address here at Info@theamazingblog.co.uk *Giveaway is one pack per entry and the offer is open until 21st May 2015. Good Luck!
