Anti-Ageing Face Serum and Cleansing Foam - Eleni and Chris

Like many of you, the simple beauty of scandi-chic has inspired us here at The Amazing Blog, and we cannot get enough of the pure, natural and simple essence that accompanies the ethos of scandi fashion and beauty. As such, we were thrilled by the opportunity to review Eleni and Chris, a beauty empire created by a mother and daughter duo. Eleni and Chris have developed a unique cosmetic brand, free from chemicals and using only the finest and purest of Scandinavian ingredients. Inspired by their landscape, and the rare resources their homeland offers, they have created some utterly unique and exceptional products. 

We sampled two of their skincare products; the first was a powerful  Anti-Ageing Face Serum and the second, a refreshing Cleansing Foam. Both products contain cloudberry seed oil and Scandinavian glacier water, which are the real magic behind the product's success. Cloudberry is an incredibly rare berry that not only contains vitamins A, B, and E, Magnesium, and Calcium, but a single berry has four times more vitamin C than an entire orange. The glacier water is sourced directly from natural resources near the Arctic Circle. The water is crystal clear and because it's extracted near the source contains higher levels of oxygen. 

Eleni and Chris aim to create visible results, results which are effortlessly achieved with their uniquely Scandinavian ingredients. As such, they have created an Anti-Ageing Face Serum that naturally revitalises skin and enhances complexion, while smoothing out fine lines and wrinkles. As well as creating a Foam Cleanser that effectively removes impurities and makeup while keeping skin hydrated, fresh and velvety smooth. 

We loved both these of these Eleni and Chris products and cannot wait to try more in the future. If you want to try these brilliant products then you can purchase the face serum here for £95.00 and the cleanser here for £58.00

SilDerm's Lumixyl RevitalEyes

This time every year, my skin reacts terribly to the change of season - the constant changes of temperature make my skin dehydrated and very dull... make-up ends up looking odd and not as natural. That's why apart from looking for nourishing products, brightening ones are also on the top of my beauty wishlist every Autumn. To be fair, and when it comes to eye cream, I've always been on the hydrating side of formulas as they make under eye concealer go smoother - however, and following the "no dull skin in Autumn/Winter", I have to say that I and the girls at The Amazing Blog have fallen for SilDerm's Lumixyl RevitalEyes Brightening Eye Cream.

Lumixyl RevitalEyes claims to correct the 4 main signs of age of the eye area: dark circles, fine lines and wrinkles, dryness and inflammation - most eye creams usually treat one or two of these factors, however, Lumixyl RevitalEyes has been designed specifically to rejuvenate the eye area correcting these 4 main issues. This effective eye cream uses the Decapeptide-12 technology, which stops the production on melanin; the dark pigment in the skin that causes sun spots, liver spots and dark eye circles. To be fair, I don't suffer from neither fine lines nor inflammation; however, I do have a super sensitive under eye area which needs deep hydration and brightening. The product is quite liquidy yet nourishing, it leaves the skin feeling fresh and soothes this sensitive area instantly. Silderm's Lumixyl has left my skin smoother, more flexible and definitely brighter.

You can buy SilDerm's Lumnixyl RevitalEyes on their website, it retails at £50 - worth every penny.

Frownies Facial Patches

So as the proverb cites, "prevention is better than cure" - and even though I'm only in my mid-twenties, I can't help but to be afraid of wrinkles and fine lines already. At The Amazing Blog we're quite opposed (and a bit scared) of injecting botox or other toxins in our pretty faces; so we treated ourselves to Frownies - the natural alternative to surgery or syringes.

Depending on your area of concern, Frownies offers two sets of patches to be used overnight on the forehead and between the eyes or on the corners of your eyes and mouth. The effect of the patches can be intensified using the Rose Water Hydrator Spray - rich in Hyaluronic Acid and Sodium PCA, both humectants that prevent the skin from dehydration, locking the moisture in the skin.

Let's face the truth, continuous laughing, crying and frowning (life, in general) can damage the facial tissue, leading to forehead wrinkles, crows feet, eye wrinkles and marionette lines. This said, Frownies claims to re-educate the muscles of your face to assume their correct place and natural appearance - leaving the skin younger-looking and making wrinkles look less harsh.

As every skin treatment, the continual use of these Face Patches is key to see improvement and the benefits of this miracle product. Both Facial Patches for wrinkles on the Forehead and Between Eyes and Facial Patches for Corners of Eyes and Mouth are available to purchase online from Frownies website of calling 0113 2817711, for £17.50 each. You can also purchase any of these two sets with the Rose Water Hydrator Spray for £27.45.
