As the darker and colder days close in, there’s no better time to reassess your skincare routine. I’ve had the opportunity to review the products below, which I feel would be a great place to start. I wonder if these products will be as good as they were for me than for you?

Rhug Estate Wild Beauty Hand and Nail Cream

Rhug Estate Wild Beauty Hand and Nail Cream is made with a blend of natural ingredients, including shea butter, cocoa butter, and beeswax, and it is scented with a delicate blend of essential oils.

The cream has a rich, luxurious texture that absorbs quickly into the skin. It leaves my hands feeling soft, smooth, and hydrated. The cream also helps to strengthen my nails and prevent them from chipping or breaking.

I love the way the Rhug Estate Wild Beauty Hand and Nail Cream smells. The essential oils give it a refreshing, invigorating scent that is perfect for throughout the day. The cream is also non-greasy and doesn’t leave any residue on my hands.

Ashmira Botanica Clay Mask Gift Set (Water)

The Ashmira Botanica Clay Mask is a deep-cleansing mask that is made with natural ingredients, including kaolin clay, bentonite clay, and activated charcoal. The mask is designed to absorb excess oil and dirt, remove dead skin cells, and tighten pores.

I have been using the Ashmira Botanica Clay Mask for a few weeks now, and I am very impressed with the results. The mask is easy to apply and remove, and it leaves my skin feeling clean, refreshed, and soft.

I have noticed that the mask has helped to reduce the appearance of my pores and blackheads. My skin is also less oily since I started using the mask.

However, the mask can be drying for some skin types, so just try on a little piece of skin first. Your results may vary depending on your individual skin type and needs.

SOS Balm Lavender & Neroli

This balm is absolutely fantastic! I apply it to a variety of areas, from my lips and cuticles to those stubborn dry patches caused by eczema. Its performance is exceptional, and the best part is that it’s entirely natural. The lavender and neroli fragrance is particularly delightful, creating a soothing and calming experience.

In summary, the SOS Balm is the ideal travel companion thanks to its size. It literally is a cream for every skincare emergency, and I also appreciate its all-natural composition and its serene, tranquil aroma.

Vive CBD Recovery Serum & Day Defence Cream (SPF 15)

I have been using the Vive Concentrated Recovery Serum and Day Defence Cream for a few days now, and I am very impressed with the results.

The serum is a lightweight, non-greasy formula that absorbs quickly into the skin. It is packed with powerful ingredients, including hyaluronic acid, squalane, and niacinamide, which work together to hydrate, nourish, and protect the skin.

I have noticed that the serum has helped to improve the overall texture and appearance of my skin. My skin now feels more hydrated, plumper, and radiant. I have also noticed that the serum has helped to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

The Day Defence Cream is a rich, creamy moisturizer that provides deep hydration and protection. It is formulated with SPF 15 to protect the skin from harmful UV rays.

The cream is very comfortable to wear and it doesn’t leave my skin feeling greasy or sticky. I have also noticed that the cream has helped to reduce the appearance of redness and irritation on my skin.

Overall, both products are great and I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a natural and effective skincare routine.
