Elemis Exotic Cream Moisturising Mask

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.

Elemis Soothing Apricot Toner

Don’t worry, we aren’t suggesting you head out for your Christmas parties or New Year’s Eve drinks make up free, but we are advising you to take that make up off before you go to bed.

While many people think ‘just once’ won’t hurt, at Pure Beauty we are firm believers that the happiest, healthiest skin is skin that is cleansed, toned and moisturised before you go to sleep and when you wake up.

We have had a look at some products that are tough on cleaning away foundation, mascara and eye make-up, but are gentle and loving to your skin at the same time.

Soap free, packed with goodness and suitable for all skin types, is what the Dermalogica Special Cleansing Gel is all about. Balm Mint soothes complexions, as natural Quillaja Saponaria foams away the make up and toxins that can cause problems. With Lavender Extract added into the mix, this is one product we think you will love from the moment you first use it.

If you want to cleanse your skin, remove dead cells and stimulate the cellular renewal process, you need the Decleor Phytopeel Smooth Exfoliating Cream. Perfect for this time of year when we often wear more make-up then usual and have lots of late nights, this soft cream formula is one of the gentlest, most natural ways to renew your skin before you sleep.

If you are tired and have had a long day, the temptation is to skip your toner, but we would urge you to reconsider and think about trying the Elemis Soothing Apricot Toner. Extracts of Apricot, Sweet Betty Flower and Quillaja Wood have been blended to create a toner which helps to soothe and harmonise the skin. Free from alcohol and harsh detergents, this toner can applied to the skin with cotton pads and not only does it help maintain natural pH levels but using this can assist the penetration of day and night creams so they are as effective as possible.

Oily skin can really suffer over the festive period, so treat it with the Jan Marini Bioglycolic Oily Skin Cleansing Gel. This deep follicular cleanser leaves oily and problem prone skin feeling super clean and soft from the very first use. While it cannot be used as an eye make-up remover, ongoing use morning and night, helps skin appear less oily, and leaves it with a smoother, more refined texture.

We always suggest adding an eye cream to your routine, especially at night-time when your skin works hard to rejuvenate itself. The Elemis Pro-Collagen Advanced Eye Treatment targets the fine lines and wrinkles around the eye area, leaving you with a more youthful appearance. Padina Pavonica and Blue Flower Linseed have been blended to help tone and firm, while an Amino Acid complex locks moisture into the skin but doesn’t overload it so it looks silky smooth rather than puffy.

If you have any questions, please do get in touch and we would love to help you make the right choice for your skin.

Elemis Exotic Frangipani Monoi Hand and Nail Cream

The office is buzzing, the staff room is full of glitter and gossip, Last Christmas is on play 24/7, and people all over the country are wondering what to buy for that all important Secret Santa present.

At Pure Beauty we are sure that we will have something that Sam from accounts, Rosie from PR and Penny the company PA, will just love.

The Dermalogica Special Cleansing Gel is a favourite with our customers, and the handy travel size version makes the perfect Secret Santa present for pretty much anyone. Suitable for all skin types, this lovely soap-free, foaming gel removes make-up and leaves skin clean, without disturbing the natural moisture balance, which is especially important in the cold winter months. Balm Mint cools and calms skin, while Lavender Extract purifies it which means complexions are left feeling comforted and loved.

If you want to give your Secret Santa something special, how about the Elemis Exotic Frangipani Monoi Hand and Nail Cream? This is luxury hand cream not only nourishes skin but leaves it delicately scented too. Shea Butter has been blended with Macadamia Seed Oil as well as Frangipani Flowers, and we think it is a stunning combination. Perfect for any desk drawer, handbag or wash bag, this is a gift that will keep on giving long after the decorations have come down .

Although most people know the mantra of cleanse, tone and moisturise, many miss out the middle man, the toner. Why not give someone the gift of toning this Christmas and wrap up the Dermalogica Antioxidant HydraMist as your Secret Santa gift? White Tea, Liquorice and Vitamin E fight damaging free radicals, Vitamin C and collagen-stimulating peptides, encourage firmness and elasticity so that fine lines are smoothed, and with the help of Rose and Clove Extracts, skin feels soft and refreshed.

If Dave in IT is your Secret Santa, you can’t go wrong with the Dermalogica Shave Essentials Trio gift pack. This is a complete set of products that offer a smooth shave and healthy skin for under a tenner – what’s not to like? The Dermalogica Daily Clean Scrub (44ml), Dermalogica Soothing Shave Cream (74ml) and the super cooling Dermalogica PostShave Balm (10ml) equals a month’s supply of products that we think the Dave will love.

Last, but by no means least, we want to mention the Decleor Luxuriant Nourishing Lip Balm. This would make a gorgeous Secret Santa for anyone and will leave their lips feeling loved all Christmas long. With a luxe feel, this balm has been enriched with Marjoram Essential Oil, Shea Butter and Macadamia Oil and simply sinks into lips leaving them feeling soft, smooth and totally smoochable under the mistletoe.

If you’d like any more details about these Secret Santa ideas, or any of the products we sell, get in touch and we would love to help you make the right choice.

 Dermalogica Stress Positive Eye Lift

At Pure-Beauty we pride ourselves not only on selling some of the best products in the world and offering great service, but also treating our customers in return for their loyalty.

At the moment, when you spend over £70 on Dermalogica Products in one shopping session, we will send you a free, exclusive Dermalogica Ath-Leisure gift bag.

We know you have your go to beauty products already, so we thought we would look inside the gift bag and tell you what could be coming your way for free if you take advantage of this fantastic offer.

For starters you will get a 50ml Dermalogica Multi-Active Toner that is perfect for your gym bag or in your desk at work. Made from a blend of skin-repairing Aloe as well as soothing Lavender, Balm Mint and Arnica this toner is free from artificial fragrances and colours which means it can be used on all skin types. Simply spray onto your face and neck after cleansing and your skill will feel hydrated and soft and will be ready to really absorb your moisturiser.

This free gift will give you the chance to try out the stunning Dermalogica Stress Positive Eye Lift. This high-performance eye treatment doubles as a masque and however you use it, it energises the skin and helps to reduce the visible signs of stress. Wild Indigo Seed Extract brightens the skin by increasing under-eye luminosity, improving skin tone and it also helps deal with dark circles – we like that! Sea Water and Artic Algae deal with those pesky bags and wrinkles while Hyaluronic Acid deals with hydration so you have happy eyes once again! Simply apply generously around the eye area using the fab, cooling massage applicator, leave on for around five minutes and either massage in any excess product after that time or gently remove with a clean tissue.

At Pure Beauty we love the Dermalogica Skin Perfect Primer SPF30 and are so pleased it is a part of this free gift because it means you get to see how good it is too. Perfect for drier or prematurely-ageing skin, this is a real ‘go to’ primer if you want a flawless, dewy looking finish. Helping to smooth away fine lines, this product brightens your skin and prepares it for your make-up, if you are going to wear it . Velvety silicones have been mixed with Soy Protein which together help to even out skin texture so your face looks and feels smooth. Pearl Powder and earth minerals offer a neutral tint that further helps skin tone as well as enhancing luminosity and radiance. In addition, Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide give you Broad-Spectrum UVA and UVB protection but this doesn’t leave your skin dry, sticky or chalky, which has to be an added bonus? You can wear this over your toner and moisturiser for a natural day time look or use it under make-up for a really professional finish, but either way we think you will be so impressed by the results you will be using it on a regular basis.

So, what are you waiting for? Go fill up your basket and wait for your free goodies to hit your doorstep!

For details about this offer, as well and terms and conditions, go to the website, and we are of course always happy to help with more information so you can make the right choices for your skin.

Dermalogica Conditioning Wash

If you’re rushing back to work after a lunchtime spinning session or meeting friends after a HITT class, you might want to skip the shower and head straight out of the door.

Don’t!

As well as leaving you a little smelly and sweaty and not very popular with your colleagues, it won’t do your skin or hair any favours.

At Pure Beauty we sell a range of products that you can throw in your gym bag and will leave you looking, feeling and smelling clean and fresh wherever you are heading next.

Cleanse away
Ideally, don’t wear make-up when you exercise as this can clog your pores as you sweat. Use the Dermalogica Special Cleansing Gel before and after your step class and let the soap-free, foaming gel remove impurities without disturbing your skin’s delicate natural moisture balance. Skin-soothing Balm Mint cools and calms the skin which is exactly what you need after a workout, while Lavender Extract purifies and smells great too. Simply lather onto your face, rinse away with warm water and your skin will thank you for it.

Jump in the shower
The Dermalogica Conditioning Body Wash is packed with natural extracts making it suitable for all skin types and perfect for washing away sweat, odours and germ. Soothing essential oils of Sandalwood, Lavender, Orange and Clary Sage moisturise the skin, leaving it smooth and conditioned and because it uses naturally-foaming Quillaja Saponaria Extract this fantastic wash can be used by anyone because it doesn’t upset the natural balance of the skin.

Wash and go
There is nothing worse than heading out with greasy, sweaty hair, so take the Dermalogica Daily Cleansing Shampoo into the shower after that weights session. This great smelling, nourishing, daily shampoo leaves you with healthy, shiny hair however hard you have been working. Argan Oil adds softness, shine and manageability while Coconut Oil strengthens cuticles and thanks to Grapefruit, Lavender and Geranium Oils, your senses are awakened and your hair smells great.

If you need an extra boost, follow with the Dermalogica Daily Conditioning Rinse which will add brilliant shine and bounce which air-conditioned gyms and chlorinated pools can take away.

Lock in the moisture
When you sweat, your body loses moisture which can leave you and your skin dehydrated so when you step out of the shower and are dry, treat your limbs to a generous application of Dermalogica Body Hydrating Cream. This lush cream is quickly absorbed by the skin, which is what you need to if are running to meet a friend at the bar, and will help smooth and soften your skin. We love that is packed with essentials oils which not only sink into your skin but leave it smelling fantastic too.

Hide the red
If you are heading back to work after your exercise class, ease that post-workout redness by applying the Dermalogica Sheer Tint. This lightly tinted moisturiser provides a sheer wash of colour and is perfect if you don’t want to irritate your complexion as it cools down. While it offers protection from the sun, it isn’t chalky or drying but does help with hydration and signs of ageing. We love it and because it comes in light, medium and dark options, there is something for everyone.

 

All in one
If you are new to Dermalogica, or want everything in one place, we suggest buying going for the Dermalogica Travel Essentials Kit. This convenient, travel kit contains everything you need for top to toe cleaning after you have worked out. For £33 you get a body wash, body cream, shampoo and conditioner in travel sizes which are easy to put in your bag and even easier to use.

For more information, or to try samples, contact us today and we will be very happy to help.
