While a shower might refresh you after a long hot day in the sun, there is still something special about having a bath before you go to bed.

As well as washing away the dirt of the day, a soak can help you to relax, ease aches and pains and also help you to deal with stresses and worries as screens will be out of the way and there will be no one to bother you.

At Pure Beauty we sell some gorgeous products that will turn your humble tub into a spa haven so you can get some much-needed R&R.

Let’s get this slumber party started with the Elemis Skin Nourishing Milk Bath. This amazing Milk Protein based product is super rich in Vitamins, Amino Acids and Minerals which makes it perfect for dry skin that needs a little extra love. Plant Collagen from Japanese Camellia Oil and Oat Extract means that your skin is nourished the moment you sink into the silky water and when used use every other day for nine days, you will really start to see a difference in softness and texture.

Whether it’s because of swimming, golf or being outside gardening, if your body is tired then add the Elemis Aching Muscle Super Soak to your bath each evening. Energising extracts of Birch, Juniper, Clove, Alpine Lavender, Wild Thyme and Blue Chamomile have been mixed with Sea Salt for a blend that warms muscles and recharges the body and mind. Adding just three capfuls of this powerful aromatherapy deep heat treatment to your bath water will help ease the aches and pains caused by exercise and hard work and thanks to the head clearing aroma you will feel ready to sleep when you get out of the bath.

While great when you want to jump in and out of the shower, the Dermalogica Conditioning Body Wash is perfect for the bath too. This rich, skin-conditioning botanical cleanser contains soap-free Quillaja Saponaria so while it cleans the skin, it doesn’t stipe away essential natural moisturisers. Sandalwood, Lavender, Orange and Clary Sage essential oils have been added to soften the skin so that when you get out of the water, your limbs are soft, smoothed and conditioned.

Using the Jan Marini Bioglycolic Resurfacing Body Scrub in the bath can help you get incredible looking skin. This high-end product combines concentrated glycolic acid with exfoliating particles and botanical extracts so that skin is not only silky smooth but also glowing. While results can be seen from the very first use and you will see progressive improvement over time that we think you will love. You can further harness the power of this product by using the Jan Marini Bioglycolic Hand and Body Lotion. Glycolic acid has been mixed with Shea Butter to hydrated the skin so it looks visibly younger. Gently apply the lotion to your skin once or twice a day and you will soon feel and see the changes.

At Pure Beauty, we love Elemis Frangipani Monoi Shower Cream which can be used in the bath and the shower. Advanced technology has been used to create this exceptional skin friendly formula that gently cleanses the skin without stripping protective oils. Tahitian Monoi Oil and Frangipani Flowers come together to ensure your skin not only feels soft and supple but is also delicately scented. If you want to add a little extra love after bathing, simply dry off and apply the Frangipani Body Oil which is quickly absorbed and offers dry and mature skin extra care.

Whether you battle with buses, go nose to nose with commuters on the tube or spend hours driving, at the end of the day we all tend to feel less than fresh and it is important to wash away the dirt and grime that gathers on our skin.

At Pure Beauty we sell a range of gorgeous products from iconic companies that not only clean your skin but also replaces lost moisture and eases aches and pains.

Today we are looking at some of our favourite cleansing products, which we think might become yours too!

Even if you only have five minutes in the shower, the Dermalogica Conditioning Body Wash will instantly sooth your skin and freshen your senses. This rich, conditioning cleanser contains Quillaja Saponaria extract which cleans your skin, while essential oils of Tea Tree, Lemon, Eucalyptus and Rosemary purify it. Sandalwood, Lavender, Orange and Clary Sage oil have been added so that skin is left feeling smooth and soft. To further boost hydration, we suggest using the Dermalogica Body Hydrating Cream which is non-greasy and quickly absorbed, so you can massage it into your limbs, get dressed and go.

If dryness is an issue, you might like the Elemis Skin Nourishing Milk Bath which nourishes skin and eases the tightness that can cause irritation. Made from a milk protein base, rich in Vitamins, Amino acids and minerals, this is most effective when used every other day for nine days and you only need to add 20 mls to a warm bath to see results. Japanese Camellia oil and oat extract have been added so that skin is deeply nourished and left feeling satin soft and cared for.

Whether you have over done it with the digging in the garden, been lifting heavy boxes at work or that last spinning class was just too much, the Elemis Aching Muscle Super Soak will get you back on track. Extracts of Birch, Juniper, Clove, Alpine Lavender, Wild Thyme and Blue Chamomile have been blended with Sea Salt to create something really special. By adding three capes of the liquid into warm water and soaking for 15 minutes, your muscles will be warmed and your body will be recharged. As well as being great for those suffering with arthritis and rheumatism, this muscle soak can help ease period pains and boost a sluggish circulation, and anyone can use it other than pregnant women and those breastfeeding.

For a little bit of everyday luxury, you can’t go wrong with the Elemis Frangipani Monoi Shower Cream. This lush cream wash has a skin friendly formulation and the gentle, natural lather cleanses your body but doesn’t strip away the protective surface oils your skin needs. An infusion of exotic Tahitian Monoi oil, Tiare flowers soaked in Coprah oil and Frangipani flowers have been blended together and leave skin not only beautifully soft and supple but delicately scented too.

The menopause is something that happens to every woman at some point in their lives and while many of us are pretty grateful for the lack of periods each month, some of the accompanying side effects can make us feel truly lousy. Hot flushes, memory loss and sleep disturbances are just a few of the undesirable symptoms of the menopause and if you have a friend who’s going through it, you might want to buy them a gift to help them through this awkward time. We’ve put together a list of five gifts that we think would be perfect for your menopausal friend to make her feel a little better:

Elemis Anti-Fatigue Eye Gel

If your friend is struggling with sleep (insomnia and night time waking are super common during the early stages of the menopause), there’s a good chance she’ll have dark circles around her eyes, which will be reminding her of her issue every time she looks in the mirror. This gel from Elemis is designed to refresh and cool the delicate eye area, tightening the skin and reducing dark circles, making the perfect gift for someone who’s lacking sleep.

Dermalogica UltraCalming Mist

Hot flashes and dry skin are two of the most common symptoms of the menopause and this spray from Dermalogica can help to tackle both of them. This soothing toner that provides critical hydration while helping to relieve and defend against inflammation, whilst relieving inflammation and discomfort, helping skin recover from damage and lipid barrier breakdown.

Elemis Tea Tree S.O.S. Spray

As we get older, our skin thins which means that not only is it easier to get an injury, it often takes longer to heal. This spray from Elemis is make from purified water and Australian tea tree oil, which is a natural antiseptic, anti-fungal and antiviral and can be sprayed directly onto cuts and abrasions to help with the healing process.

Elemis Instant Refreshing Gel

Another common symptom that menopausal women report is aching muscles and joints, as well as muscle tension and fatigue. As well as recommending a menopause-specific multivitamin, we also suggest that you use this gel from Elemis on your achy areas. It contains soothing extracts of arnica, birch and witch hazel, with cooling camphor and menthol, which combine to relive tired legs and muscle tension and can even be applied over tights!

Elemis Pro-Definition Day Cream

Elemis created this day cream just for menopausal women – it helps support skin that has begun to sag and lose definition, and leaves skin feeling more dense and resilient. It contains stem cells from sweet irises and Chinese hibiscus which stimulate the production of collagen and restore the look of skin’s vitality. Skin feels moisturised and revived all day long.

Going to a spa is one of our favourite indulgences, but it’s not something we’re able to do do every weekend due to time and money (mores the pity!). There’s no reason, however, that you shouldn’t have that spa experience right from your own home and Elemis have a selection of products which are perfect for giving you that spa-glow without having to step foot outside your house. Read on for our pick the the best ‘home spa’ products from the Elemis ranges:

Elemis Body Detox Skin Brush

We recommend that you begin your spa experience with a gentle brushing with the Elemix Body Detox Skin Brush; its natural cactus bristles help to reduce the appearance of cellulite by improving circulation and softening the skin. It will help you to brush away the top layer of dry, dead skin cells to allow you to treat the new skin beneath with a cocoon of moisture from all the other products you use.

Elemis Aching Muscle Super Soak

The next step is to turn your bath into a hot tub and soak your aching muscles in this Super Soak. It contains a blend of botanicals which not only help to unknot tense muscles but also to relax the mind through the power of aroma. The mixture of birch, juniper, clove, alpine lavender, wild thyme and blue chamomile, combined with sea salt will uplift and invigorate the senses whilst warming the body and recharging your muscles.

Elemis Devils Mint Body Scrub

Once you’ve finished your soak, we highly recommend giving your body another level of exfoliation to ensure that any dead skin is totally removed. This devil’s mint body scrub uses peppermint to give your skin a real “ZING!”, and literally polishes your body using only natural ingredients. We’d recommend focusing on common dry areas, such as your knees, elbows and feet to give them a really good going over.

Elemis De-Stress Massage Oil

Once you’ve awoken your mind and body, we recommend giving yourself a chance to relax once again by smothering yourself in this de-stress massage oil in long, sweeping strokes – or if you’re lucky enough to have someone around to help, get them to do it for you. This oil is intended for use in conjunction with deep breathing and calming visualisations, so try to use it in a quiet, darkened room where you can really allow yourself to relax.

Elemis British Botanical Hand and Nail Butter

For a final touch, we would recommend treating your hands and nails to their own personal coating of moisture from this hand and nail butter. Our hands are often one of the most neglected areas of our body, whilst arguably being one of the most hard-working, so ensuring that they’re properly moisturised and massaged will really add that final touch to your spa experience – you could even give yourself a manicure beforehand!

Whether you’re a teacher, support staff, a student or a school-run parent, you’re probably feeling incredibly glad to see six weeks of summer stretching out ahead of you, where you can turn off your daily alarm, stay up as late as you want and even drink wine on a random Tuesday without having to worry about the next morning! It’s highly likely that your body is feeling more than a little tired, so we thought we’d take a look at some of our products which are designed to remedy all that tiredness and help you to put a little more ZING into your skin!

Dermalogica Charcoal Rescue Masque

Masks are a really great way to replenish and revitalise the skin as they can be left on for a period of time and really allowed to go to work. This masque from Dermalogica is designed to brighten dull, tired skin and will detoxify and invigorate your skin. It’s easy to remove and can be used on all skin types, making it an essential product for your bathroom cabinet.

Elemis Aching Muscle Super Soak

Nothing tells you that you’re tired more than aching muscles, and by the same token, nothing is better for aching muscles than a soak in a tub full of warm water and some Elemis Aching Muscle Super Soak! The blend of botanicals such as birch, juniper, clove, alpine lavender, wild thyme and blue chamomile combine with sea salt to gently warm and soothe the muscles, helping your body to unwind and allowing your mind to follow suit – just don’t fall asleep in the bath!

Elemis Instant Refreshing Gel

If you don’t have time for a bath (or have a bathtub at home!) you’ll need a product which can be applied directly to the skin if you want to revitalise aching limbs and muscles. This gel from Elemis is designed to be rubbed into tired muscles, especially the neck and shoulders, to help to untie knotted areas, cool and soothe inflammation, and instantly leave you feeling lighter and less achy. It’s great for travel and can also be applied to the temples during a migraine.

Decleor Iris Rejuvenating Night Balm

Night-time is the right time…to rejuvenate your skin. Night creams and balms are brilliant products for giving your skin a big burst of help, and this Iris Rejuvenating Night Balm is no exception. It’s made from 100% natural ingredients and is especially great for ageing skin. It will energise, tone and redefine facial contours, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and stimulate and invigorate even the most tired skin, particularly those showing signs of ageing.

Elemis Pro-Radiance Illuminating Eye Balm

No anti-tiredness beauty regime would be complete without a product which can work miracles on your eyes. Tired eyes will look puffy and have dark circles around them, but this balm from Elemis works to combat that. It contains omega-rich apricot kernel oil nourishes the delicate eye contour area, as well as benefiting from an applicator which cools and smooths the skin as you use it.
