Rosemary is a popular, fragrant herb and while you might think of it as a kitchen cupboard essential, it is pretty good when it comes to health and beauty too.

This little green diva comes with a bevy of benefits including moisturising your skin, supporting collagen development, fighting off damaging free radicals, and because it is an astringent, it helps to balance and tone too.

We have highlighted just a few of the products that contain Rosemary, on the Pure-Beauty website, and hope there is something which will catch your eye.

The Dermalogica Conditioning Body Wash is a rich, conditioning botanical cleanser and can be used on all skin types. Essential Oils of Tea Tree, Lemon, Eucalyptus and Rosemary come together to gently purify the skin, without stripping those all-important natural moisturisers. Soap-free Quillaja Saponaria extract leaves your limbs feeling soft and silky, and thanks to Sandalwood, Lavender, Orange and Clary Sage, you smell great too.

If you suffer with aches and pains, a soak in the bath with a liberal splash of Elemis Aching Muscle Super Soak, could be the fix you have been looking for. This natural foaming bath soak is energising and uplifting thanks to a blend of Birch, Juniper, Clove, Lavender, Thyme and Blue Chamomile. You will also find Rosemary in this bottle of goodness, and this has been added to help to stimulate the circulation and relieve joint pain.

We love the Jan Marini Bioglycolic Resurfacing Body Scrub because the combination of glycolic acid, exfoliating particles and botanical extracts, means smoother glowing skin that is silky smooth. Aloe, Chamomile and Rosemary Extracts are all found in this new product to Pure Beauty, and we are pretty sure you will love the way it makes your skin look and feel from the very first time you use it.

If you have dry skin, you might find the Dermalogica Essential Cleansing Solution is perfect for you. This rich, creamy cleanser, nourishes dry and prematurely-ageing skin as it cleans away dirt and impurities. Natural Safflower Oil softens and conditions the skin, Vitamin E smooths and conditions it, while the mild astringent properties of Rosemary and Lemon, refresh it. The overall result is clean, happy skin that is soft to the touch.

The Elemis Herbal Lavender Repair Mask is a balancing, calming treatment mask which has been created to decongest and heal blemished skin. As well as Lavender, this product also contains Rosemary and Thyme Essential Oils which are bound together in a Kaolin Clay base. When left on the face and neck for ten minutes, twice a week, skin will be purified, soothed and rebalanced, and if a more intense approach is needed, the mask can be left on overnight.

Read any magazine, scroll through any social media feed or watch any TV show, and it’s all about having dewy skin.

The reason this look is so popular is because, not only does it look feminine and natural, but this kind of plump, hydrated skin is a sign of youth, something so many of us desire, whatever our age.

At Pure-Beauty we sell a range of products that take care of your skin and give you that youthful, dewy look you thought was long gone.

Let’s kick things off with the Dermalogica Phyto Replenish Oil. Just a little goes a long way to restoring the protective lipids which are key for preserving a dewy, youthful appearance. Ageing and environmental stresses are a part of life, but both of these factors can deplete lipids, leaving skin vulnerable to the dryness and dehydration that ages us and makes us look tired. Camellia Oil, Orchid Flower Extract, Sunflower Seed Extract, Rosemary Leaf Extract, and Chia Seed Oil have been specially blended, and pressing just a few drops of this potion into cleansed skin can lock in moisture and glean great results.

Our eyes often give away the toils of our lives, so why not try out the Elemis Pro-Definition Eye and Lip Contour Cream and bring dewy back? This nourishing eye and lip cream, firms and plumps the skin so that fine lines disappear and complexions look more youthful and renewed. Gently smoothing a little of the cream around the eye and lip contours, morning and night, will help bring sagging skin, that has lost definition, back to life once again.

As well as cleansing, toning, and moisturising, if you really want dewy skin, you need to exfoliate too. We love the Elemis Gentle Rose Exfoliator because not only does it smell amazing, it buffs away dirt and dead skin cells so that your complexion is left looking glowing, and yes, dewy too. Ideal for sensitive and mature skin types, using this product, which is packed with restoring Absolute of Moroccan Rose, Jojoba beads and refreshing cucumber, could be the best thing you do for your skin.

The Jan Marini Luminate Face Mask is a great way to not only reduce the appearance of discolouration, but regular use will give you brighter, more youthful, dewy looking skin. Relatively new to the Pure Beauty family, this targeted mask works not only as a stand-alone product, but complements any skincare routine and helps you feel more confident about your skin and how it looks. Exfoliators gently remove dull, dry skin cells, while calming agents reduce irritation and redness, and the results are clear to see from the very first use.

If you are young at heart and want a complexion to match that sentiment, look no further than the Decleor Magnolia Youthful Oil Serum. Part of the popular Orexcellence range, this gorgeous oil serum is made with essential oils of Magnolia and Ginger as well as botanical oils of Hazelnut and Jojoba, and together they offer a concentrate of energy for the skin. Regular application, after toning and before moisturising, helps skin look plumper and firmer and gives a fresh, dewy, luminous glow.

For more information, why not get in touch and we will help you to find the products which will ensure your skin looks fresh and dewy all year round, and we will even send you samples so you can try before you buy.

While we have been enjoying warm sunshine during early October, those brisk early mornings and chilly dark evenings, and battering winds, are all the evidence we need at Pure Beauty to know winter is on the way.

You can layer up in chunky knits, thermal tees and bobble hats to keep your body warm, but at this time of year you need to be thinking about your skin too. Harsh frosts, rain and lower temperatures mixed with the endless blasts of air conditioning and central heating, means our skin is constantly on high alter for all that you throw at it.

At Pure Beauty we stock some great products which will help your skin to glow all winter long.

One way you can be sure your skin is winter ready, is to exfoliate away the dead cells that are getting you down. We love the Dermalogica Gentle Cream Exfoliant which is a gentle, non-abrasive exfoliation treatment. Lactic Acid, Beta Hydroxy Salicylic Acid and natural fruit enzymes have been blended to ensure that not only is dull skin removed, but renewal is stimulated too. As you would expect from this brand, conditioning botanical extracts including Lavender, Aloe Vera and Coneflower, have been added and together they soothe the skin and make it as soft as snow.

While roses are usually identified with summer, the Elemis Pro-Collagen Rose Cleansing Balm is a perfect winter staple. This deep cleansing balm not only dissolves make-up but daily dirt and pollutant build up too. Skin that has suffered at the hands of the elements is immediately cleansed, nourished and renewed by this gorgeous product. Made from a blend of rare rose extracts from around the world and infused with Elderberry, Starflower, Optimega oils and Padina Pavonica, this is a beauty winner in our book.

If you are thinking of stepping up your mosituriser this winter, the Dermalogica Intensive Moisture Balance could be a good bet. This ultra-rich phytonutrient moisturiser is perfect for dry skin and thanks to added Vitamin C, fine lines are eased and skin is left feeling soft and supple. Vitamins A and E, and Ginkgo protect against environmental attacks while Hydrocotyl, Grape Seed and Wild Yam, reduce the signs of premature ageing, so you will look better than ever.

The harsh winter months can leave even they healthiest skin looking dehydrate and tired. To combat this, why not feed your complexion with the Jan Marini C-ESTA Serum. This powerful antioxidant serum is packed with Vitamin C goodness that helps to ease the appearance of the fine lines and wrinkles that can look more prominent during the colder months. Ongoing use will help skin look smoother and more evenly toned, while deep lines will seem less pronounced and you will look healthie,r even if you are freezing under your coat.

Unless you wear a balaclava, your lips are going to take the full force of winter. Don’t despair, if you carry the Elemis Lip Revive with you, they will stay soft and perfectly moisturised from dawn to dusk, and beyond. A nourishing White Bees Wax base has been enriched with added vitamins and peppermint to create a lip salve that is too cool for school.

For those nights out when you want your skin to glow, why not try the Decleor Flash Radiance Mask? This clever express mask has been created to specifically revive complexions and hide imperfections. Leaving the blend of Elemi and Saro Essential Oils on cleansed skin for just three minutes, will restore radiance and skin will be soft, smooth and even.

We would love to help you decided on which products could be best for you this winter, so why not get in touch and chat through some ideas?

While the humble cucumber is often only seen as an afternoon tea afterthought or an extra in a smoothie when the fridge is running low, it is actually jam-packed (excuse the pun) with natural goodness that can really benefit our skin.

The flesh might mainly be water, but it is also home to Vitamin C and caffeic acid, which both help reduce inflamed and irritated skin. The peel is often sliced away before being laid on top of ham for sandwiches, but this contains silica, which can firm sagging skin and because cucumbers are 100% natural, even people with the most sensitive skin can usually incorporate this into their beauty routine.

We did a little research and realised that quite a few of the products we sell here at Pure Beauty contain cucumber, so we thought we would let you know what’s what when it comes to this gorgeous green diva.

One of Dermalogica’s most popular products is their Skin Smoothing Cream and we know first hand that just a little goes a long way to smoothing the fine lines which are caused by dehydration. When applied to cleansed and toned normal to dry skin types, moisturising Lecithin and Aloe Gel nourishes while Extracts of Mallow, Cucumber and Arnica soothe and hydrate. Used morning and evening on a regular basis, the result will be happy, soft skin that radiates health.

Cucumber in oil might not be a match made in picnic heaven, but it works when it comes to the gorgeous Elemis De-Stress Massage Oil. Perfect for soothing the mind, melting tension and easing muscles, this exquisite mix of pure essential oils deserves a place in every bathroom cabinet. Chamomile, Cucumber, Melissa, Marjoram, Geranium, Rosemary and Lavender have been blended and is the perfect way to treat dry, irritated and stressed skin, leaving it satin smooth and silky soft. Thanks to the aromatherapy benefits of the oil, when massaged into the skin at bedtime, it offers comfort and can also help you drift off to sleep, now we didn’t know cucumber could help do that!

It’s not just aging skin that needs a little love; young, blemish-prone complexions do too and cucumber is a hero again here. The Dermalogica Overnight Treatment is a soothing, hydrating product that has been blended with Green Tea, Lavender, and Cucumber which all help to calm unhappy skin.

The Elemis Gentle Rose Exfoliator is a great way to achieve radiant, soft skin and we love it. Used weekly this luxe product is perfect for buffing away dirt and dead skin cells, leaving behind a glowing, youthful complexion. Absolute of Moroccan Rose hydrates the skin, while Jojoba Beads exfoliates it and thanks to Cucumber your whole face is tightened and left feeling cool and refreshed after the very first use. Seeing, and feeling, is believing, so give it a go.

Dermalogica Intensive Eye Repair is an ultra-rich cream that helps diminish dry lines and repair damage around the delicate eye area. Skin-replenishing phytonutrients and botanicals of Cucumber, Butcherbroom, and Arnica help achieve optimum skin health and restores suppleness. Wild Yam Extract and Pro-Vitamin B5 help repair prematurely ageing skin, while antioxidant Vitamins A, C, and E together with Grape Seed Extract protect the skin from harmful free radicals.

We can’t help you with a lunchtime buffet, but if it’s beauty products that come complete with a serving of cucumber you are looking for, get in touch and we will show you the way.

We have all heard that it is important to exfoliate, but why is that and what exactly does it do? Exfoliation gently removes the dulling top layer of dead skin cells from of the epidermis which then encourages cells to renew so that skin is refreshed as well as clean and clear.

At Pure Beauty, we sell a range of products that could help you exfoliate your way to better skin, so let’s have a look at them.

A popular product with our customers is the Dermalogica Gentle Cream Exfoliant and for good reason. Suitable for all skin types, except sensitive, Lactic Acid, Salicylic Acid, Sulphur and fruit enzymes have been combined and together help remove dead skin and promote cell renewal. Used once or twice a week, the conditioning botanical extracts soothe your skin and combat dryness so you have a smoother, happier complexion.

For a real beauty treat, we love the Elemis Gentle Rose Exfoliator. This gorgeous product contains micro-spherical Jojoba beads which have been blended with hydrating Rose Absolute and together they gently exfoliate the surface of the skin leaving it silky smooth and soft. This can be used once a week and you simply massage a little of the product into cleansed skin using light circular motions, then remove with warm water, pat dry and apply your moisturiser. Free from parabens, mineral oil and artificial colours, this exfoliator leaves skin looking smoother and brighter from the very first application.

The Decleor Phytopeel Smooth Exfoliating Cream is a lovely cream formula which exfoliates and smoothes the epidermis. It gently absorbs and eliminates impurities, and because it does not contain exfoliating particles, it the gentlest and most natural way to renew your skin. As well as removing dead cells, Phytopeel cleanses the skin and helps stimulate the renewal process so you are left with a healthy glow.

We are big fans of the Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant which is gentle enough to use on a daily basis. This unique, rice-based enzyme powder micro-exfoliates the skin, instantly leaving it noticeably smoother and brighter. It is suitable for all skin types and the blend of Green Tea, Ginkgo, and Colloidal Oatmeal calms inflammation, leaves skin looking clear and refreshed after every use.

For something a little different, why not try the Elemis Dynamic Resurfacing Facial Pads? This is an innovative, refining treatment that gently encourages the skin’s surface cell renewal cycle. For results that rejuvenate, revitalise and smooth the skin, slide the pad, texture side down, over your face in a circular motion morning and evening, after cleansing and this will boost and leave you with a clear, luminous complexion.

We also sell a range of accessories including the Dermalogica Exfoliating Face Brush, Dermalogica Ultimate Buffing Cloth and the Elemis Luxury Cleansing Cloth Duo which can enhance cleansing and help get your skin in the best condition ever.
