Danielle Creations - Erase Your Face

Much as we like to wear long-lasting makeup to take us through from day to night, the downside is that it requires using lots of cleansing cream and toner plus a bit of extra effort to remove.  As regular readers will know at the Amazing Blog we like to support eco-friendly alternatives, so you can imagine how thrilled we were to discover  Erase Your Face cleansing cloths. What could be more perfect than to be able to repeatedly use a cloth to instantly wipe away makeup with no waste? Not only good for the environment but also our skin. Solo these clever cleansing cloths combined with just water remove all kinds of excess from the skin, leaving a flawless and makeup-free finish.

Be Glow - TIA and PURA Sonic Cleansers

At The Amazing Blog, we are always on the hunt for products that will help us cleanse our skin and help make it look more vibrant 24/7. We’ve been looking for an uncomplicated, portable, easy to clean and maintain sonic cleanser. Some of us here, have tried those electric cleansing brushes, but found that they tended to be quite harsh, ‘peeling’ the skin to cleanse which then generate more blemishes. Tired of spending money on useless beauty gadgets products? Then read on, we recently came across a new brand BeGlow with their TIA and PURA Sonic Cleansers at the CEW Awards showcase .

BeGlow advanced facial treatment methodologies are what everyone needs! Like us, they were aware that most brush-based sonic cleansers had an antagonistic effect on some people’s skin due to the nylon brushes. The brushes can end up harvesting bacteria because they never seem to get fully dry in a bathroom, due to humidity. They started working on different formulas to create a sonic cleanser that would avoid all those issues. After hours of brainstorming, they discovered that silicone brushes are the ideal material since it is non-porous, making it easy to dry, clean and therefore more hygienic. This is where BeGlow shines; they also have designed soft, replaceable silicone brushes which they recommend changing annually, to keep guaranteeing optimal results.

BeGlow designed two different cleansers; TIA and PURA, both are waterproof so can be used in the bath or shower, and each serving different functions. TIA is an all-in-one sonic skincare system designed for cleaning, lifting and toning. TIA is dual-ended making it possible to cleanse and tone both simultaneously and at once. On the one end, it has a replaceable silicone brush head to provide you with the ultimate hygiene. Its skinsense technology allows the machine to adapt its intensity according to your needs, automatically. On the other end, it has an anti-ageing titanium applicator with high frequency pulses, that improve your blood circulation and cell vitality, by helping the oxygen absorption. Lastly, it has a dual pulse visage mode which acts like a full-on workout for your face, toning its muscles to enhance definition and strength in the area of the cheekbones and jawline. This device is available in stylish colours of red, pink, white and black.

PURA, on the other hand, is simpler to use and is ideal for travelling due to its smaller size. PURA is designed to remove impurities and makeup (and other products) from your skin, to help avoid future blemishes, it’s available in pink and white. Like TIA, it is composed of a replaceable silicone brush head and skinsense technology. No matter which one you go for, they are both are straightforward to use. Start by applying your favourite product and press the control button to start the cleansing, press the control button 1 to enter the standard cleansing mode. Once you are finished, rinse and dry your face and you’re ready to apply your skincare. Both TIA and PURA and waterproof and once fully charged, this charge can last up to 6 months!
