Citrus fruits have a tangy taste, fresh fragrance and vibrant appearance and this winning combo makes them a universal favourite. As well as being great to eat and drink, the goodness of citrus fruits are often used in beauty products.

We have had a look at how adding a little citrus to your beauty routine could add zest and zing to your skin.

The Decleor Green Mandarin Glow Night Balm is 100% natural and can really help to energise your skin and reduce the appearance of ageing. This really is a citrus packed dream as green mandarin, grapefruit, lemon and sweet orange essential oils have been blended with beeswax to offer an energy boost to your skin as you sleep.

It’s the lemon peel extract, a natural source of vitamin C, that helps to protect skin and reduce inflammation in the popular Dermalogica Clearing Skin Wash. This fabulous foaming cleanser clears the problem causing excess oils and bacteria on breakout-prone skin. Balm mint, eucalyptus and tea tree oils, plus menthol and camphor all come together with the lemon to clean and cool skin so it can settle and breathe.

Did you know that citrus can be part of an anti-cellulite and body cleansing programme? Well, it can with the gorgeous Elemis Cellutox Active Body Oil. A powerful mix of sea buckthorn and sea fennel extracts have been added to lemon and juniper essential oils to create a beauty routine staple you won’t want to be without. Massaging just a little of the oil into the skin will nourish, detoxify and stimulate. Regular use can help smooth cellulite, boost a sluggish system, lift lethargy and even help ease constipation when rubbed into the tummy and lower back.

We know that eating vitamin-packed food is good for our immune system but using those same ingredients on our skin can be positive too. This is where the Decleor Green Mandarin Sun-Kissed Glow Cream comes into play. This lush day cream moisturises the skin, helps ease fine lines and wrinkles gives you an even sun-kissed glow. This is thanks to a gorgeous blend of citrus essential oils, natural hyaluronic acid and beta-carotene which together re-energise tired-looking skin. Not only does simply sink into your skin and leave it looking great but with green mandarin, grapefruit, lemon and orange oils being part of the mix, it makes you smell amazing too.

Grapefruit is often eaten for breakfast, but it is one of the key ingredients in the Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant. This unique rice enzyme powder smooths the skin, accelerates cell renewal and is gentle enough to be used seven days a week. Grapefruit is part of the skin brightening complex together with aspergillus, liquorice and bearberry which come together to balance uneven skin pigmentation. We love that green tea, ginkgo and oatmeal have been added to help to calm inflammation so that skin is clear, bright and citrus fresh.

If your skin is feeling sad, why not treat it to a session with the Elemis Exotic Cream Moisturising Mask? Mimosa and honey have been expertly blended with extracts of sea rocket, bergamot and citrus orange which together moisturise and enrich the skin. Using for ten minutes twice a week or leaving on overnight will rejuvenate your skin and dazzle your senses.

If you need a little citrus in your life, get in touch and let’s see what would work for you.

There is something special about the citrus scent of lemons that makes us stop in our tracks at Pure-Beauty and put life on hold for just a second or two.

It is so simple but so gloriously fresh and clean and we think that is why it features in so many of the fantastic products we stock, so today we are going to look at just a few for you.

When Sea Buckthorn, Sea Fennel, Lemon and Juniper essential oils come together they create the perfect body detox in the form of the Elemis Cellutox Active Body Oil. This powerful synergy of ingredients can be used as part of an anti-cellulite and body cleansing programme and by simply rubbing into problem areas like the abdomen, buttocks and thighs when you come out of the bath, your skin will be left feeling nourished, detoxified and your senses will be stimulated.

Dermalogica Active Moist is one of our most popular products, and we aren’t surprised. This light, oil-free moisturiser simply sinks into normal and oily skin and offers the perfect make-up base. Lemon is one of the natural botanical astringents in this blend, together with Watercress, Burdock and Ivy which all help to refine the skin while Lavender, Mallow and Cucumber hydrate and sooth it.

When life gets busy, you need the Elemis Quiet Mind Temple Balm by your side. At the heart of this beauty cabinet must have is the zesty refreshing aroma of lemon which helps to enhance feelings of positivity, something we all need from time to time. There is also Patchouli Essential Oil for inner balancing plus the freshness of Eucalyptus to clear the mind and focus concentration. Add stress reducing Centella Asiatica and Organic Indian Menthol and all that is left to do is lie back and take five minutes to regroup.

Bet you didn’t know there were hints of lemon in the Decleor Lavendula Iris Rejuvenating Serum? This award-winning product helps to reduce lines and wrinkles, redefine facial contours and boost cell renewal. It comes with a floral aroma and delicate silky texture and because it is rapidly absorbed, skin is instantly hydrated and softened thanks to Geranium Manuka, Iris, Rose, Lemongrass, Jasmine, plus Plum Kernels, Hazelnut and Borage.

Essential oils of Lemon together with Tea Tree, Eucalyptus and Rosemary are at the heart of the Dermalogica Conditioning Body Wash. Purifying ingredients and natural extracts work together to cleanse the body and de-stress the mind. Perfect for everyone, this leaves skin feeling soft, silky and smoother than ever and it will smell pretty good too.

Before we go, let’s not forget out feet as they quite like lemon too. The Elemis Treat Your Feet Foot Cream melts beautifully into the skin, smoothing and hydrating those dry, rough spots that can get worse when we wear flip-flops all summer long. Infused with a blend of Patchouli, Eucalyptus and Lemon oils, regular use can leave you with happy, healthy feet once again.
