Rebel Kitchen - Coconut Mylks

Coconut has emerged as a new super food that appears in food and beauty products. Here at The Amazing Blog, we have benefitted from refreshing coconut water and the hydrating powers of coconut oil. Rebel Kitchen has now caught our attention with their range of Coconut Mylks.

Rebel Kitchen goes back to basics with simple and natural ingredients, thankfully without the use of additives and preservatives. Finally we know exactly what we are putting into our body, rather than trying to decipher the cryptic ingredients. As a staple each Mylk contains Organic Coconut milk, Somerset Spring water and Organic Date nectar, which acts as a natural sweetener. We loved that the range of flavours adhered to our cravings, in particular the Chocolate and Coffee Mylks. Chocoholics and Caffeine Addicts alike will love this healthy, dairy free alternative.

While adults can enjoy the Chocolate, Coffee, Matcha Green Tea and Chai flavours, Rebel Kitchen have included a children’s range that will satisfy any young sweet tooth. Snack time will never be the same again! Kids have a choice between Chocolate, Banana and Orange Chocolate flavour, each of which is personified on the packaging in the form of a foodie character. This will surely entertain children whilst also feeding them a nutritious snack.

Satisfy the whole family with a natural sweet treat from Rebel Kitchen; get yours here for £1.89 each.

Dermacoll - Anti aging Supplement

Here at The Amazing Blog, we have come across countless anti-ageing creams and serums. Yet we believe the effectiveness of these products can only extend so far, there is a brand new way to turn back the clock. Dermacoll have introduced a break-through Anti-Ageing Supplement, taking ingestible collagen absorbs far quicker into the body than simply layering it on our skin.

The supplement stimulates metabolism and production of collagen directly from inside; we were excited to see if this is indeed more effective than other leading skincare brands. It contains Hydrolysed Bovine Collagen, Vitamin C, Green Tea Powder and Hyaluronic Acid which further promotes collagen production. Dermacoll promises hydrated skin, reduced appearance of lines, improved elasticity, healthy hair and nails and even reduction in cellulite.

After 4 to 6 weeks of using it the results speak for itself, our skin felt plump and deeply hydrated, this reduced any fine lines and gave our skin a healthy glow. After years of religiously applying cream after cream we are ecstatic to have found a product that really works. It was a super quick and easy addition to our beauty regime, mix a scoop into water or juice of your choice. Each Dermacoll contains enough product for a month of beautiful, ageless skin.

Soupologie

These vary from flavour to flavour, including Toasted Coconut Flakes and Sunflower Seeds.

Laundry Special – Dryerballs, Senses, Fairliving

 

Here at The Amazing Blog we love finding totally natural, organic and environmentally-friendly beauty products, whether that’s skincare, makeup or body care. We’re now taking this level of care to our wardrobe, clothes are worn every day and spend hours in contact with our skin, we have picked our favourite laundry products that cater to different needs.

As winter comes closer, the outdoor washing line is swapped for the tumble dryer. Dryerballs can rid you of the additional task of ironing and give you back an evening of relaxation.

These products are all natural softeners made only from wool. The Dryerballs negate the use of chemical softeners, reduce drying time, reduce creasing and reduce static. We found them so easy to use, simply put both balls in the tumble dryer along with your clothes and start the machine on the usual settings. What’s more, if you want to add a natural fragrance to your laundry, simply add a few drops of essential oils to the Dryerballs and run for a further 10 minutes on no heat. They are reusable and will undoubtedly save you both time and money by reducing drying time. Get yours here for £8.25.

For those of you who would rather stick to a classic softener, we have found one that can be used even by those with the most sensitive skin. Senses have created a new hypoallergenic and dermatologically tested fabric conditioner that rivals brand leaders on performance and price.

The fabric softener uses microcapsule fragrance technology; it’s available in three scents, Blue Breeze, Orange Zest and Tropical Burst, each scent is rich, fresh and long lasting. The ingredients are all naturally sourced, allowing the product to be hypoallergenic as well as intensely fragrant. We found the conditioner of excellent quality and highly effective, our clothed felt soft but our pockets didn’t feel empty. Get yours here for only £1.00.

Lastly we have found a stain remover for today’s conscious consumer. Fairliving has created a Planet Pure Organic Stain Remover Spray with the power to eliminate stubborn stains cause by red wine, fruit, jam and even grease.

We were lucky enough to try this and loved the zesty orange fragrance. It came to the rescue of a white dress from an attack of red wine, while also giving it a fresh, crisp scent. The spray is versatile and extremely useful as it can be used on any type of fabric and surface. This is a product that everybody needs in their laundry kit and thankfully won’t break the budget. Make sure you get your hands on one here for £2.99.

Heathcote & Ivory – Kaffe Fasset Body Wash and Lotion

 

For one day only, here at The Amazing Blog, our office has become an enchanted garden. Thanks to Heathcote & Ivory, the Kaffe Collection has filled the room with the heavenly scent of summer, perfect for a grey dreary day like today.

We adore everything about it. It's only October and the sky might be a bit dull but the fruity and flowery scent of this body wash let our minds travel to a colourful and happy place. It’s not usual to see a packaging like the Kaffe Fasset one; the floral pattern is literally a feast for your eyes. Bright and vivid colours cover the box and the bottle gives an idea of what's inside. The Body Wash contains a bouquet of Orange Blossom, Bergamot and Oleander mixed with Black Pepper and Cornflower, and will leave your skin soft as a rose without using parabens or sulfates.

The Kaffe Fasset Body Lotion is what you really need to keep smelling good until night and double the treatment. We couldn’t help but spreading it on hands and arms all day as the effects on the skin are astonishing. Heathcote & Ivory’s lotion - we like to call it a potion - doesn’t grease,  and is very light despite its deep hydrating action and absorbs quickly.
After a while, we also noticed the scent on our skin changes; crispy and almost salty as the sea at the beginning, it gets fruitier and more sweet after a while.

Dreaming of a private, secret garden? Buy Kaffe body wash and lotion for £12 here, where you can also find, from the same collection, hand cream and cute scented drawer liners for £10.
