Mighty Green : Anti-Ageing CBD Face Cream

Yes, we admit it, we’re big fans of CBD infused products and always on the lookout for new discoveries. Today at The Amazing Blog we’re featuring CBD skincare Mighty Green and their Anti-Ageing CBD Face Cream; it’s a brand we stumbled upon last year at Professional Beauty.

Mighty Green is a UK-based company co-founded by Claudia Le Feuvre in 2019. Her passion for CBD grew out of her work as a nutritionist, where she observed the healing powers of CBD. She went on to develop Mighty Green with a team of experts who include healthcare professionals, a personal trainer, a psychologist, and even a facialist! Claudia hopes that Mighty Green can make a difference in people’s lives, in the most meaningful way it can – with their health. She also wants to make CBD as accessible as possible, offering a series of books for further education on CBD. In an interview with The Leaf Desk, Claudia explained why she started Mighty Green, “I looked into the marketplace, and there are so many discrepancies and a lack of standards. I was alarmed.” She went on to say, “I hope to bring credibility to the industry by sourcing high-quality CBD products. We’re trying to create a brand that customers will trust.” Her brand Mighty Green has broad-spectrum based CBD products, complemented by some of nature’s finest ingredients and all have certified lab reports here. These products currently range from an anti-ageing face cream to a range of balms and CBD oils. What sets them apart is that the brand offers a unique combination of industry knowledge, clinical experience and technical expertise. 

We got tempted by Mighty Green’s Anti-Ageing CBD Face Cream, which is formulated with the help of their in-house facialist. It’s a natural skincare that is infused with CBD broad-spectrum distillate and contains 150mg of CBD and CBG respectively. As we’ve discussed many times, CBD has demonstrated excellent anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antioxidant capacities in skincare - all of which we love. It also supports the skin’s natural cell cycle aiding in the replenishment and protection of skin. The addition of CBG or cannabigerol is a lesser-known cannabinoid found in the hemp plant. It helps boost the overall effect and has similar capabilities as CBD. Also rich in antioxidants, it fends off free radicals, making it an age-defying ingredient to help give skin a more youthful-looking appearance. The great thing about the combination of CBD and CBG - it keeps the skin free of excessive oil and bacteria and helps control oils produced by sebaceous glands. 

In addition to CBD and CBG, Mighty Green has added beta-glucan, and hyaluronic acid to their Anti-Ageing CBD Face Cream to lend moisturise and hydrate. Beta-glucan is a relatively new ingredient in cosmetics. It’s essentially polysaccharide sugars (or starch) extracted from oats and is a humectant that attracts water to the top layers of skin. Did you know that it has a 20% higher moisture capacitance than hyaluronic acid? Hyaluronic acid itself, as we’ve often discussed, plumps up the skin, smoothing out fine lines even if it is on a more temporary basis. Other key ingredients are essential oils and carrier oils, each playing a significant role in this cream. The carrier oils are neem, evening primrose, grapeseed and sweet almond oil. Whereas the essential oils are sweet orange and bergamot oil. Neem oil and evening primrose oil both contain anti-inflammatory linoleic acid and gamma-linolenic acid, which help sustain skin softness and elasticity to reduce the effects of ageing. Grapeseed oil protects skin from sun damage and, like neem and evening primrose oil increases skin elasticity and softness. Sweet almond oil has been used in ancient Chinese and Ayurvedic practices to treat skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis. It’s highly emollient and contains vitamin A, and E, with omega 3 fatty acids and zinc; these vitamins help reduce fine lines and aid in cell regeneration. The essential oils with sweet orange promote collagen production, and the bergamot stimulates skin cell renewal with the added bonus of being super helpful in ridding skin of blemishes and hyperpigmentation. All these ingredients come together to give this CBD Face Cream its silky smooth consistency.  

The great thing about the Anti-Ageing CBD Face Cream is that it has little or no fragrance making it suitable for sensitive skins. We liked how it’s versatile enough to be used morning, evening, or both; and found it to be a good stand-alone face cream with no need for the addition of serum. The combination of the CBD/CBG, beta-glucan, hyaluronic acid and botanical oils, make it rich enough to hydrate even our parched skin! This is the first CBG infused skincare that we have tried, and a new powerhouse ingredient to watch as it’s just beginning to appear in the world of skincare. Tempted?

Ancienne Ambiance : Bacca Berry and Adriatica Fig Soaps

We believe that it’s always quality over quantity. This is why at The Amazing Blog we want to introduce you to one of our favourite luxury lifestyle brands, Ancienne Ambiance and their Adriatica Fig and Bacca Berry soaps. Not only do these help to keep skin soft and hydrated but are fragranced with delicate botanical extracts. If you’re curious to know more about the other products we’ve reviewed, then see here.

Founded by Adriana Carlucci in 2004, with a boutique expansion in 2014 in Chelsea, Ancienne Ambiance truly is a unique and wonderful brand. Adriana’s background in antiquities fuelled by her passion for fragrance inspired her to bring together the curation of these exceptional products. Historical elements and themes run through the entire range with either the ingredients or with the methods that the products have been created. Ancienne Ambiance brings history to life and embraces their corporate colour purple, often dubbed one of the papal and royal colours and a time-honoured symbolic colour with historical significance. The award-winning brand uses sustainable and ethical practices, which include no testing on animals and the use of recyclable packaging. Products range from perfumes to jewellery and skincare to candles, where each product also has its own story. Ancienne Ambiance produces some of the finest quality luxury lifestyle goods exclusively in the UK, France, Lebanon and Italy, all delivered in beautiful purple hand-crafted gift boxes.  

We chose two of their soaps, The Bacca Berry soap and Adriatica Fig soap from their set of four here.  All the soaps are made in France using the traditional Savon de Marseille techniques, and each soap is made with safe, sustainable and ethically sourced ingredients. Beautifully embossed with the Ancienne Ambiance logo, these are made with a 100% vegetable oil base and includes key ingredients such as shea butter and coconut oil (as the natural glycerine). The shea butter, in particular, improves the skin’s natural barrier and protects the skin from environmental stressors. They lather well without the presence of SLS and are gentle enough to use on hands, face and body. Apart from the fragrance, we love how they both cleanse and hydrate the skin keeping it nourished and moisturised.

The Bacca Berry soap, they refer to it as berry-licious, and we couldn’t agree more! It’s a beautifully light and berry scented with hints of redcurrants and blackcurrants, all of which help cleanse and gently purify the skin. Translated from Latin, Bacca means berry, and it is also the botanical term used to describe a fruit that is a pulpy and juicy fruit with one or many seeds but not encased or with a stone. Historically, these succulent berries were included in soap to treat or cleanse impurities. This soap delivers a beautifully soft and gentle berry-like scent that gives a delicate fragrance to the skin. 

The Adriatica Fig soap is another beautiful and luxurious soap with nourishing and moisturising qualities. This type of Mediterranean fig has fresh, top notes with green florals and green leaves and gives base notes of warmth and calm. The Adriatic Fig, a highly prized ingredient in ancient times and is known to symbolise rebirth, abundance, and prosperity. 

We loved the gorgeous fresh fruity fragrance of these soaps, they’re almost too good to use. In fact, some people tuck soaps into an empty suitcase or even an underwear drawer to keep clothes smelling fresh. Not a bad idea! Also, did you know that the word soap originates from the Latin word ‘sapo’? Soap production dates back to around 2800 BC in ancient Babylon. The first known formula for soap was written on a Babylonian clay tablet around 2200 BC. It is said that soap was first discovered at the base of Sapo Hill in Rome by washerwomen who noticed while doing their laundry in the River Tiber that using cleansing substances like clay made for cleaner laundry. To quote Ancienne Ambiance, “Mother nature – or Demeter, the ancient Greek goddess of the earth’s fertility – provided everything the ancients needed to create effective products for beauty and wellbeing in a sustainable manner, so why change things?”  Why change things indeed!

Skin Virtue : Future Advanced Eye Serum & Pure Eye Radiance Cream

And when it comes to eye care, we’re battling dark circles, dehydration and fine lines together with our skin reacting badly to the cold. It’s an area that some of us need a little added extra help, which is why at The Amazing Blog, we were delighted to return to the nature meets science-based Australian skincare Skin Virtue  (which we previously reviewed here), but this time it’s with their hydrating and age-defying Future Advanced Eye Serum and the Pure Eye Radiance Cream

Skin Virtue is an evidence-based skincare, with premium products that have been developed to address a multitude of skin issues. Founded in 2008, skincare expert Nina Gajic with a mission, “To bring beauty to life by crafting skincare regimes that are proven by science and enhanced by nature, for clients who demand results and value.” The inspiration for the brand began with Nina herself, who had been struggling with sensitive and easily irritated skin, and was determined to understand why. In order to help resolve her own skin issues, she began researching formulation science and teaming up with certified dermatologists and Italian biochemists to create targeted skincare. Nina was already running a clinic working with clients who also had skin sensitivity which is when Skin Virtue came to life during this journey. The principal goal was to create effective products that incorporated the most effective botanical aspects of both science and nature. The brand has developed highly-effective formulas using advanced ingredients and technologies using natural multi-functional actives, potent vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and calming marine and botanical extracts. The Skin Virtue range harnesses the power of these ingredients to help slow down skin ageing and restore the skin's health. This is done by strengthening the skin barrier, promoting skin cell longevity, and targeting skin-related concerns through specific treatments. Skin Virtue has three targeted skincare collections: Super Clear Collection (for oilier skin types) to help with skin issues like breakouts, redness, clogged pores, and inflammation, the Pure Anti-Aging Collection (for drier skin types) to hydrate and protect the skin from premature ageing, and the Future Advanced Treatment Collection (for all skin types) which can be used with the other two collections to target skin-ageing issues like discolouration, wrinkles, or volume loss. Skin Virtue dedicates itself to providing skincare that is also suitable for sensitive skin, as all their products are fragrance-free, noncomedogenic, anti-irritating, anti-allergen, paraben-free, and made without mineral oil. For skincare suggestions or to check out the founder’s own skincare routine, see here. They also have a questionnaire on their website to personalise your skincare experience here to help you determine the best products to add to your personalised skincare routine. 

As the skin around the eyes is thinner and more active than the rest of the face, particularly with all our squinting, frowning and laughing, these ingredients help slow down the signs of ageing. Also, as the eye area doesn’t create hydration or replace moisture, it’s more prone to dryness, or worse – wrinkles. Therefore including an eye serum and/or eye cream in a daily skincare routine is, in our view, essential!

The Future Advanced Eye Serum is featured in the Future Advanced Treatment Collection, aims to correct signs of skin-ageing and revive skin complexion. This anti-ageing serum is ultra-light and developed to lift, firm, and plump the eye area so that your skin doesn't sag or suffer from hollowness and deep-set wrinkles. The serum’s super-concentrated formula and targets age-related volume loss through molecular lifting technologies. It has 11 active ingredients that work together to improve skin elasticity and reduce fine lines.

Let’s start with the two patented ingredients, malus domestica cell culture extract, and adipofill’in™ (in ionosomes). Malus domestic is a liposomal preparation sourced from apple stem cells - specifically from a rare Swiss variety. These stem cells have a potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effect and help to protect skin against sun damage and fine lines. As for the adipofill’in™ (in ionosomes), its main purpose is to increase fatty tissue for facial rejuvenation, it has a ‘lipofilling-like" action and is designed to lift and plump.

There is acetyl hexapeptide-8 argireline, a peptide that restores the skin's natural water barrier by binding water to the skin which in turn helps improve elasticity. Next, there is hydrolysed pearl, which is easily absorbed by the skin offering plentiful anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and energising benefits. It’s also known to boost collagen production to strengthen the skin and help prevent the onset of dark patches. There is also glycine soja protein from the soya bean. It has several fatty acids such as, palmitic, stearic, oleic, and linoleic, that have anti-ageing and soothing properties, which leaves the skin feeling rejuvenated. Another key ingredient is one that we all know well is sodium hyaluronate. Sodium hyaluronate has a lower molecular weight than its cousin hyaluronic acid. It is synthesised small enough to penetrate deep into the skin, leaving a smoother, fuller, nourished, and more moisturised eye area. Finally, caffeine is present to reduce any puffiness and allay any hyperpigmentation or dark circles. 

We were excited to try this serum for its volumising properties, which for us, worked perfectly in tandem with the Pure Eye Radiance Cream.  As we have sensitive eyes that water, the fact that this is fragrance-free is a huge asset. We found that we needed only a tiny amount of this light serum, which we applied to the contour of the eye area, gently tapping it in with fingertips. It absorbed fast leaving skin feeling cool and hydrated. As Nina says about this Future Advanced Eye Serum, “it provides that lipofilling-like effect to sunken eyes, helping to plump up hollowing under the eye area and maintain firmness.” We found it effective to use independently, and together with the Pure Eye Radiance Cream (below).

Next, we tried the Pure Eye Radiance Cream, which is designed primarily to combat the look of puffy and aged skin. This eye cream is a part of the Pure Anti-Ageing Collection, which offers a range of products that use anti-ageing and pH strengthening active ingredients to help improve dry skin and prevent premature skin ageing. This age-defying rich cream leverages the power of biotechnological ingredients to smooth wrinkles and fine lines, reduce dark circles, target eye puffiness, and build skin health. Again this cream echoes some of the above serum’s ingredients with acetyl hexapeptide-8 argireline peptide and malus domestica stem cell liposomal formulas - both of these improve elasticity and support skin stem cell longevity around the eye. This eye cream certainly helps to revive the eye area with its 13 active ingredients, and wrinkle-smoothing peptides.

A few of the key ingredients worth mentioning are ginkgo extract, olea europaea (olive oil) unsaponifiables, vitamin A and E. These botanical extracts have soothing, toning, and antioxidant properties. The olea europaea oil unsaponifiables are a composition similar to sebum, with squalene and phytosterols that act as an intensive emollient. The hydrolysed elastin, marine collagen, has humectant properties for moisture retention, supporting cell growth and improving skin elasticity. Rich in vitamin A and E, both potent antioxidant that effectively fights free radicals - a major cause of wrinkles and dark spots. 

The Pure Eye Radiance Cream is super hydrating, rich in texture, but not thick or heavy, and again only a small amount is needed. It feels ‘protective’, particularly when used in cold winter weather. As mentioned, this can be used independently, and together with the Future Advanced Eye Serum, if intense hydration is required. We noticed with regular use, the skin around our eye area looked smoother and felt more hydrated, but to see longer-lasting and more defined results, we think it is probably best to use them both morning and night for an extended period of time. They are both this week’s #amazingfinds and we love that they are great value for money, priced at around only £40 each. The 15ml Future Advanced Eye Serum can be purchased here or £40 and the 15ml Pure Eye Radiance Cream can be purchased for £39 here.

Ego Harmony : Night Cream ARGAN & OPUNCIE

Sometimes at The Amazing Blog we like to look a little further afield for new skincare to feature. Today, it’s with this multi-award-winning and natural skincare brand Ego Harmony from the Czech Republic. We wanted to try their super-hydrating Night Cream ARGAN & OPUNCIE with all their new skincare technologies!

Ego Harmony was launched just last year by founder Frantisek Vorel. Ego Harmony is a natural cosmetics brand that offers highly effective and gentle skincare products. Although Frantisek Vorel worked in a corporate environment, he had always wanted to create his own brand of skincare. Initially, Frantisek thought of selling imported Moroccan cosmetics in Europe under his own company, but this soon changed when he decided to create his own range instead. The Ego Harmony skincare range offers face cream, night cream, face scrub, and cleansing foam, all of which are age-defying and aimed at improving overall skin health. The main mission of the brand is to produce skincare that is efficient, safe, and kind to both skin and environment. They source ingredients from all over the world, where they are then developed in certified laboratories in the Czech Republic. All their products are certified by the National Reference Center for Cosmetics at The National Institute of Public Health, where they go through seven microbiological and dermatological rigorous tests to certify their safety. Ego Harmony products are paraben-free, SLS-free, silicone-free, phthalate-free, and made without mineral oil. Their natural ingredients list is available here. The brand also ensures that they do its part in safeguarding the environment, and uses sustainably sourced ingredients that are thoroughly supervised by leading health and beauty professionals, and never tested on animals. We were also pleased to see that all their packaging is already recycled or fully recyclable, and the natural wood wool they use as a protective filling can also be ecologically disposed of.  Although a new brand Ego Harmony has not gone unnoticed in the world of beauty, two of their products were Gold and Silver winners at the 2021 Global Green Beauty AwardsWith new products on the way, we are excited to see what Ego Harmony has coming next.  

Now for the science part: Not only do they harness the power of natural ingredients, but also use unique patented formulas, with REFORCYL® from Switzerland and LIFT Oléoactif® from France. REFORCYL® is an ECOCERT certified mixture of substances that support skin regeneration and nourishment. It is made with gynostemma pentaphyllum extract, or jiaogulan, a plant that helps stimulate epidermal lipid synthesis to restore and strengthen the skin barrier. It also includes the plant cistus incanus, the rock rose (in photo above), which fortifies the reduced antioxidative defence system found in mature skin to prevent further harm to the skin barrier. Protecting your skin barrier is key to combatting the look of aged skin, as damage to it can lead to wrinkles, fine lines, and volume loss. As for LIFT Oléoactif®, it is also ECOCERT certified and uses Oléo-éco-extraction technology to concentrate biomolecules from botanicals spilanthes acmella and astragalus membranaceus. LIFT Oléoactif® revitalises the skin by reducing wrinkles and fine lines and reorganising the collagen network to improve the quality of your skin. It rejuvenates the skin by reorganising the collagen network and remodels cutaneous microrelief. The implementation of these sciences makes Ego Harmony stand out, as they use advanced technology and botanical mixtures to combat the effects of skin ageing.

The Night Cream ARGAN & OPUNCIE  is a luxuriously thick cream, made up of 96.45 % natural ingredients. With lots of seed oils such as argan, jojoba, safflower, sunflower and prickly pear seed oil, together with plum kernel and sweet almond oil make up the bulk of the natural ingredients here. This gentle Night Cream works to hydrate, improve firmness and elasticity, protect the skin barrier, and when used often, smooth out wrinkles - what a list! Argan oil is a natural ingredient rich in omega fatty acids, vitamin E (a potent antioxidant), and linoleic acid, all of which help nourish, hydrate, and moisturise the skin. Argan oil’s vitamin E reduces fine lines, plus, this extract restores skin elasticity and softens the complexion. Opuncie AKA prickly pear oil, part of the cactus family, is another key ingredient here because it’s full of fatty acids, active minerals, and even more vitamin E to help improve skin. It’s also highly effective at retaining moisture and has antioxidant properties to promote collagen production, reduce wrinkles and the appearance of under-eye circles. It also manages sebum production so that the skin is left looking firm, bright, and refreshed. As mentioned (see para above), the cream also is made utilising other natural ingredients using the REFORCYL® and LIFT Oléoactif® technologies.  There is also niacinamide, which comes from vitamin B, and is effective at combating acne and inflammation and reducing the size of pores. Niacinamide also fights the first signs of skin ageing and increases the production of ceramides within the skin. Ceramides are naturally occurring compounds that renew and hydrate the skin but decrease with age. The even better news is that it’s suitable for sensitive skin types, and even those that are prone to acne. We found the Night Cream to be hydrating with a subtle floral fragrance, and although rich and creamy, it’s light in texture and didn't feel the least bit oily. it also absorbed well, and thankfully is not one of those night creams that leaves more on the pillow than on the face! For optimum usage, Ego Harmony suggests keeping the cream out of sunlight and storing it in a dark and dry place at a temperature between 5°C and 30 °C. The Night Cream works its magic during the night, leaving skin soft and replenished in the morning. If you’re looking for a night cream that is natural and also embraces new skin technologies, then this one is for you. The Night Cream ARGAN & OPUNCIE is available for purchase on their website here for 21.43.  

MIG Living : Ritual Body Lotion Bar - Bloom

At The Amazing Blog, it’s no secret that we love natural ingredients in our skincare and also firmly believe that nature knows best! We like to look for the more unusual artisan skincare products from around the globe, so when we heard about this waterless Ritual Body Lotion Bar - in Bloom by American award-winning wellness brand MIG Living, we were very eager to give it a go.  

MIG Living is a Colorado-based beauty and wellness brand whose mission is “to activate the inner and outer well-being of mankind through pure, authentic true beauty rituals.” This family-run company was founded in 2010 after entrepreneur Jaime Cross, who stepped away from her banking career and decided to set up her own business. After studying chemistry, naturopathic healing, and herbal alchemy, Jaime learned how to develop her own formulas. She began selling her products at farmer’s markets, where her business continued to grow, becoming what it is today. In a recent interview with Forbes, Jaime explained, “Our whole foundation is about creating products that are sourced from nature, and that can help solve our bodies most innate problems.” With health, wellness, and good living at the forefront of the brand, MIG Living works to create self-care products that nurture the body and soul. MIG Living offers a wide range of products, from serums, lotions, and toners, to balms and supplements. Their products are toxin-free, cruelty-free, and natural, as they use the most natural and effective ingredients to balance and restore the skin. They are also clean formulas, handcrafted in the USA, and sourced from American farmers. To work towards their goal of being a leading brand in the clean self-care and wellbeing sector, MIG Living develops products specifically to promote optimum mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing. As a brand dedicated to helping people find their purpose, MIG Living offers opportunities for aspiring ambassadors through its True Beauty Ambassadors program. While they are a direct selling company, in April of 2020, MIG Living decide to also take on a different approach and created training systems and ambassador workshops to help people become marketing leaders and entrepreneurs. The brand is also passionate about the movement to end child trafficking, and are partnered with Not for Sale, a campaign that aims to fight modern slavery and exploitation. Jaime and her brand have already been recognised for their pioneering approach; where she won the Gold Stevie Award for Entrepreneur of the Year, and MIG Living won the Gold Stevie Award for Company of the Year at the 2021 American Business Awards. 

We received the Ritual Body Lotion Bar in the fragrance ‘Bloom’. It’s part of a range that’s been designed to help soften, moisturise, and soothe the skin. Lotion bars are conveniently housed in a push-up tube, in a waterless solid form, made from all-natural ingredients with no nasties. The lotion bar comes in three different fragrance options, ‘Bloom’ (which we received), ‘Blood Orange & Grapefruit’, and ‘Lavender & Primrose.’ What we love is that these are all waterless, meaning a longer shelf life and more hydration for the skin. While you may think taking away water will cause dry skin, it actually does the opposite. Water-based products can draw out moisture and natural oils from your skin, leaving it dehydrated and even irritated at times. With no added water, the lotion is free from preservatives, stabilisers, and emulsifiers, leaving more room for the botanical actives.

The combination of wild-crafted herbs, farm-fresh beeswax, and plant-based ingredients leaves the skin with a healthy glow. They all work in synergy to restore moisture and reduce dry or irritated skin, promoting elasticity, which in turn helps to fight signs of ageing, and improves the skin’s overall wellbeing. Let’s do a quick rundown on the ingredients: The base is made up of shea butter, olive, coconut, pomegranate, caster, pumpkin seed, hemp oils and beeswax. These work as humectants, meaning they help skin stay hydrated and lock in moisture, and together they act as a protective barrier against environmental stressors. The lotion bar is also blended with hyssop and calendula (see photo), which creates an uplifting and fresh fragrance. Hyssop has cleansing properties that help diminish large pores and regulate the skin's natural oils, leaving the skin looking replenished. As for calendula extract (commonly known as marigold), it’s anti-ageing and promotes collagen production and skin-firming, It also revitalises and soothes skin by combating dry and itchy patches. Other ingredients include the raspberry leaf which acts as an astringent by tightening the top layers of skin and balances out the oils here. The moringa oil slows down ageing and prevents free radical damage. The wild clover has isoflavones, which stimulate the skin's natural collagen production, increasing the skin's thickness, and together with the yarrow flower and marshmallow root, they provide instant hydration and boost moisture levels. A quick mention to the pomegranate seed oil,  one of our favourite ingredients, it’s rich in vitamin C, and an antioxidant that aids collagen production with its age-defying actives and anti-inflammatory and regenerative properties.  We also like that this lotion bar is cruelty-free, is completely natural with no nasties and is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive ones.  

To apply, twist up the container and gently massage the lotion bar over the body. We used it sparingly on your arms and legs, concentrating on elbows, knees, and hands. We found that by using just a small amount, it gets the job done and were pleasantly surprised with how lightweight it felt. The fragrance gives a hint of refreshing florals, and the overall effect left skin feeling soft, hydrated and nourished - which is exactly what we need during these cold long winter months. The Ritual Body Lotion Bar is available for purchase directly from MIG Living's website here for $49.00.
