Inlight for Men - Face Oil

There is always a plethora of women’s moisturising products available which makes it easy to forget that our chaps need to moisturise too. At The Amazing Blog, we understand that men get dry skin as well, and since men have facial hair, their skin often needs extra help in the moisturising department. We've been trying out Inlight for Men, Face Oil. This hydrating Face Oil won the Best Men’s Serum/Face Oil in The Beauty Shortlist Award in 2018  and is definitely a winner in our books too. We have previously tried out and loved the women's  Inlight’s Line Softener, so we are delighted to share another incredible Inlight product with you now.

When applied to the skin, Inlight for Men Face Oil has a citrus and musky scent thanks to the aromatic infusion of patchouli and orange. The Oil also has apricot kernel, borage oil, rose extract, and calendula extract which work to both smooth and moisturise skin. Each bottle of Face Oil comes with a glass dropper, so using ­­this product is simple. All you have to do is massage 2-5 drops of the oil onto your face in the morning and you will notice that it helps your skin to be significantly hydrated and softer than before.  

All Inlight products are developed by Doctor Mariano Spiezia, who has been working for over 30 years using science to create the most effective organic products. Each Inlight product contains a ‘Bio Lipophilic Matrix’. This Matrix has been the result of years of Dr Spiezia’s research. The Matrix combines science and alchemy using pure organic/cold pressed plant oils for impressive results. Along with all of Inlight’s products, this Face Oil is 100% natural. This product is also suitable for vegans. You can purchase a 30ml bottle of Inlight Beauty’s Face Oil for Men here for £36.

Eve Victoria Reed Diffuser

Looking for a new and refreshing way to welcome guests into your house or clients into the office? We have found a new blend of scents provided by Eve Victoria that are sure to bring the lovely essence of spring and summer inside. We particularly love to have a subtle and calming fragrance in the office and so were happy to discover  Eve of Victoria's  Geranium, Grapefruit & Patchouli Reed Diffuser to have here in The Amazing Blog office.  As burning candles in the office is just not an option (especially from a safety perspective)  these clever little reed diffusers are the ideal choice for fragrancing our surroundings.

We were pleasantly surprised with the refreshing and uplifting scent provided by Eve Victoria. These reed diffuser come in a beautifully packaged box and thus making a wonderful gift. Once the reed diffuser was opened and the diffuser sticks soaked in the perfume, it instantly filled our office with their fragrance - subtle and not too overpowering. In fact, it reminded me of my childhood – running around in the fields on a summer day and eating grapefruits as our snack!  Yes indeed these have the perfect scent to get you in the mood for our much long-awaited summer. All of Eve Victoria’s candles and diffusers are naturally made using only botanicals and bees wax, with natural and essential oils. So bring the summer into your home or office for only £28 to get everyone in a happy and joyful mood - we're smiling :)

Palm & Sole

For me there is nothing better than to find beauty products that help boost confidence and inspire. As regular readers of TheAmazingBlog  will know, we always like to champion smaller natural beauty brands. So we were only too happy discover a new skincare range from Palm & Sole. This brand was launched in November 2011 by the Norfolk Aromatherapist/Complementary therapist Kathy Webb. These products are all handcrafted and only uses raw plant oils, butters Vitamin E and pure aromatic essential oils.

There are five skincare collections from Palm & Sole: Three Rose, Grounding, Levelling, Sparkling and Nurturing.  The idea was to create a versatile skincare range allowing the user to mix and match from each of these collections, as cleverly they all work in harmony with each other. My personal favourite is Palm & Sole Intense Balm from the Grounding collection, this is to ‘Calm and Relax’ – making it perfect for my stressful lifestyle! I’ve actually been using it as a multi-purpose balm on my lips as well as massaging it into my hands and nail beds. In fact, my nails have never been so healthy or grown so quickly. This balm contains some of my favourite ingredients:  frankincense, patchouli and a hint of ginger all in pure beeswax. There are no bulking agents or fillers added making these little gems great value for money with a little going a long way.  We think that Palm & Sole offers something for everyone, the ‘Calm & Relax’ balm is  £13 and comes in a 30ml pot and I have to say that mine has certainly lasted and lasted.

Bodhi-liscious

Here at Amazing PR we are well known for supporting natural, organic and environmentally responsible brands. With a beauty market saturated by products loaded with harsh synthetic ingredients, often unpronounceable, it is no surprise that on our skin, body and hair eventually suffer and are left needing a boost of TLC. So when we find a range of products that not only delivers on performance but also has the natural credentials to match we feel it is our duty to let everyone know about it.

Enter Bodhi. Inspired by Botanical Therapies and traditional remedies gathered from around the world, Bodhi’s eclectic range of bath and body products only use plant-based and naturally-derived ingredients that are ethically sourced from sustainable origins. They are then blended with essential oils and perfumery-grade absolutes at high ratios to give products that are both potent and effective without the need for harsh synthetic nasties. Our favourites are the Ylang-Ylang Incensa Sensual Body Moisturiser and Bath & Shower Therapy which was shortlisted for best new luxury bodycare product last year at The UK Beauty Awards. The strong oriental scent of Ylang-Ylang (which is supposed to have powerful anti-depressant, euphoric and aphrodiasiac properties) and Patchouli in both products is spiked with Honeysuckle, Neroli and Pink Peppercorn to give a luxurious and indulgent fragrance. The Bath & Shower Therapy left our skin soft, supple and spelling divine and the Body Moisturiser left our skin glowing and intensely hydrated thanks to the organic Shea Butter, Kukui Nut and Coconut Oils. Unlike most perfumed products they are suitable for all skin types and didn’t irritate our dry skin. Each botanical combination in the range is designed to reflect a different mood and include Jasmine Falls to Relax, Galangal Spice to Vitalise and Pep Noir to Energise. All the products in the Bodhi range are naturally free from petrochemicals, sulphates and parabens and they do not use synthetic colours, fragrances or animal ingredients. In addition, Bodhi do not test on animals and do not use any palm oil or palm oil derived ingredients due to the well documented devastating effects that palm oil plantations have on tropical rainforests and their ecology. Now that is what we call Bodhi-liscious!
