There is still time to order some of these beauties as stocking fillers for your nearest and dearest - or for yourself as a little Christmas treat!
1. Hope's Relief
Hope's Relief is a skin care range which is specially formulated with lots of natural goodness, and specifically designed for those with eczema, psoriasis and dry skin. It's so gentle and hypoallergenic that it can be used on babies as well as those with super sensitive skin. With ingredients such as manuka honey and liqorice calendula, it almost sounds good enough to eat, and it definitely smells wonderful as well.I was lucky enough to get to test out the Hope's Relief Therapeutic Cream and the Hope's Relief Cleansing Bar, which work together to nourish skin, repair it, balance the pH and rehydrate your skin.
After a few weeks of using the two products together I have to say I loved them. So many products leave my skin feeling dry and tight after I use them, and then I need to slather moisturiser on to rehydrate myself, which often leaves me feeling a bit greasy. But the Hope's Relief Cleansing Bar doesn't contain any soap products, so there it didn't leave my skin feeling dry and tight once. Using the Hope's Relief Therapeutic Cream in combination with the cleansing bar was perfect, and I can see why the cram is No. 1 in Australia! I also found I didn't need to use loads of either product to get my skin lovely and clean, soft and generally feeling great!Two fab products, from a great range, who use only natural ingredients and definitely get my vote.
You can buy Hope's Relief from Mahi's Naturals, with the cleansing bar at £8.70 and the Therapeutic cream at £16.20.
2. Estelle and Thild
This Swedish range of skin products came simply from a mummy trying to create some great, organic products for her daughters. They sell everything from cleanser and toner, to baby moisturiser and shampoo, and lip balm to face masks. All their products are totally organic, and have been developed with dermatologists in order to provide the best quality skin care possible.
The products are beautifully packaged, and you can tell from the get go that they are really high quality. I was able to test out their face cream and facial toner, and have to say that they smelt great and made my skin feel refreshed. The cream didn't feel at all greasy (one of my pet peeves), and my skin looked lovely and bright after a few weeks of use.In the UK, you can buy the Estelle and Thilde range from Urban Retreat, and the face cream is priced at £29.50, and the toner at £18.50. Well worth it for such high quality products.
3. Niki's Organic Balms
My final new favourite organic brand is Niki's Organic Balms. These little gems confused me a little at first - what was the balm for? The answer? Everything and anything! The balms are made with organic ingredients, including beeswax and essential oils, and are truly a multipurpose balm which can be used for anywhere you have dry skin. I tested out both the original organic balm, and also the rose organic balm which just smells heavenly! I seem to spend a lot of my day with my hands getting wet - using wipes to change Isabelle, cleaning the kitchen, taking washing from the machine, and all those things have left me with strangely dry finger tips - not something I have ever had before.
These little balms were perfect for helping alleviate that dryness. They had the perfect consistency to help moisture my fingertips, and because they come in handy little tubs, I was able to throw one into my change bag to take out and about.
Other items in the Niki's range include baby balms for little bottoms, and I can imagine they would help keep your little's bum as soft as it should be!
The balms are available from Niki's Organic Balms , with prices varying depending on size.
So treat yourself or a loved one to some fabulous skin care products from these lovely brands - and feel good knowing that all the ingredients are natural and organic!
