Herbal Dynamics Beauty - Acai & Mango Sugar Lip Scrub with Volumizing & Smoothing Rapid Lip Mask

Wishing all our readers a very Happy New Year! Let’s kick 2020 off with looking at lip products as we know that the key to any fabulous full-on red lips or just a healthy-looking pout is a quality lip scrub and mask. So imagine finding products that smell good enough to eat! Enter Herbal Dynamics Beauty ’s. Their Acai & Mango Sugar Lip Scrub contains only natural oils and extracts. Yummy as this might sound, we at The Amazing Blog do not advocate eating it! Instead, it’s best to use for exfoliating dead skin, paired with their Volumizing & Smoothing Rapid Lip Mask to help achieve plumper and healthier looking lips.

Herbal Dynamics Beauty is based in Scottsdale, Arizona. It was founded just a few years ago with the core belief that ‘what you put on your body is of the utmost importance’. Natural ingredients, like acai extract and pistachio oil, are combined with botanicals, such as xylitol and vitamin E, to create the Acai Lip Scrub and Volumizing Lip Mask Duo. Cocoa butter and pistachio oil add an extra layer of hydration and reduce inflammation with the scrub while peptides in the mask increase hyaluronic acid for plumper lips. This 'science-meets-nature' approach results in useful products that are gentle for sensitive skin and as we mentioned, smell amazing. Both products also are free from sulphates, parabens, phthalates, and are also cruelty-free.

The duo is perfect to use when you have time at night or when you want to pamper yourself. The sugary texture of the lip scrub allows it to work with just the slightest pressure from your fingers and creates a base for the lip mask to be most effective. A small coat of the lip mask should stay on your lips for about 3-5 minutes before removing and revealing more full lips ready for the next day or some lipstick. The company prides itself on making products for ‘consumers seeking affordable options’. It’s £24 for the Sugar Lip Scrub here and £21 for the Rapid Lip Mask here. This price point may appear high, but a little goes a long way and they’re something you will only use 2-3 times a week.

Vita-Peptide Eye Gel - Environ

We at The Amazing Blog firmly believe in the adage that our eyes are windows to the soul. Our eyes reveal a lot about us and sometimes divulge a little more information than we would like. They show how well we've been sleeping, if we've had a bit too much fun at the weekend and if we're stressed. Therefore, any half decent skin routine should include an eye serum, gel or moisturiser to reverse and correct any of these unwanted and telling signs. Part of the reason our eyes are able to disclose so much, is that the skin surrounding them is so delicate and sensitive and therefore is easily affected by even the smallest of stressors, so it's imperative to protect this skin from premature ageing. We can think of few eye care products that can do more for the skin surrounding your eyes then Environ's superb Vita-Peptide Eye Gel. 

Vita-Peptide Eye Gel contains a unique formula of powerful vitamins, antioxidants and peptides. Tocopheryl Acetate, which is a form of vitamin E  and a strong antioxidant, enhances your skin's natural sun protectors helping to encourage skin to become stronger and healthier over time. The specially crafted formula contains five amino acids which have the advantage of not irritating skin, as well as rehydrating and plumping skin to give it a more youthful appearance. The plumping effect, along with the low levels of vitamin A help to reduce the visible appearance of fine lines and are effective in preventing their development. Overall, the eye-gel leaves skin looking brighter and healthier, which in turn will leave you looking healthier and brighter!

It’s recommended you apply the eye gel twice a day, morning and evening, on clean skin. Due to high levels of active ingredients, Environ cannot be purchased online without an over-the-phone. You can buy the eye gel for £32.00, by either calling 020 8438 3282 and have your consultation at the same time or alternatively, you can click here to find you nearest stockist.
