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’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.

Shaving is a part of life for many, but get it wrong and it can cause irritation, redness, in-growing hairs and embarrassment.

At Pure-Beauty we sell a range of products that are designed to make shaving easier and more effective and today we are showcasing some of our favourites so you can enjoy them too.

We adore the Elemis Ice Cool Foaming Shave Gel because it moulds the face for a clean, close shave. This scientifically formulated, high performance foam is packed with Chinese Date, English Oak and Witch Hazel which work together to help defend the skin against irritation and razor burn, while softening facial hair so that shaving is easier and the results are more effective. For a really great shave, work a little of the gel into a lather, apply to the face then shave and rinse with warm water.

If you want to add a little extra love follow the Elemis Ice Cool Foaming Shave Gel with an application of the Elemis Anti-Fatigue Day Cream. This energising daily moisturiser is rich in Amazonian Pracaxi oil, Barley Seed and Olivine and is the perfect rescue for tender, post-shaved skin. Lightweight, easily absorbed and deeply hydrating, this cream soothes, calms, refreshes and replenishes skin and is proven to reduce the appearance of redness and razor bumps.

The Decleor Triple Action Shave Perfector is made from a blend of essential oils and offers maximum effectiveness and a fuss-free shave. Created to meet the exact needs of men’s skin, regular use can help prevent damage and hair re-growth is limited thanks to the addition of Clove Essential Oil. Used before shaving, ingrown hairs are lifted and razor glide improved. After shaving, the serum helps soothe razor burns, soften skin and can make post-shaving products more effective.

So much more than an a traditional after-shave, the Dermalogica Post Shave Balm helps reduce the discomfort and redness caused by shaving. Salycylic Acid has been added to clear impacted follicles, with Licorice Root, Saw Palmetto Fruit, Panthenol, Aloe and Horse Chestnut Seed extracts coming into play to calm the skin and help reduce aggravation. With Niacinamide, Caffeine, Biotin, Yeast Extract and Zinc Gluconate regulating sebum production, oily shine is controlled and the overall outcome is happy skin.

Freshly shaved skin needs to be ‘sun safe’ and that’s where the Dermalogica Daily Defence Block can be really helpful. This non-greasy, non-chalky, fast-absorbing multi-tasking lightweight formula promotes skin recovery while defending against skin-ageing UV rays. Wheat Germ and Grape Seed extracts have been blended with Vitamin E and the powerful antioxidants come together to help defend against damaging free radicals while easing shaving irritation. Suitable for everyday use, apply post-shave apply to the face, neck, ears and back of the neck for long-lasting UV protection and hydration.

If you have any questions about these, or any other products, do get in touch and we will be very happy to help you.

Elemis is a brand which has something for just about every skin type imaginable, and knows the value of a proper skincare routine. The best place to start is with a cleanser, but if you’ve got anything other than “normal” skin, you’ll know that finding the right one can be tricky. Never fear, because Elemis has you covered, and we stock a cleanser for every skin type. Here’s 5 of the best:

Dry skin

Dry skin is often one of the trickier skin types to cleanse, because many cleansers contain ingredients which dry the skin out even more. Opting for an hydrating cleanser such as Elemis Rehydrating Rosepetal Cleanser will allow you to remove all traces of daily dirt and grime from your complexion without stripping away the natural oils and giving your skin a wash of moisture in the process.

Oily Skin

Oily skin can often lead to blocked pores and congestion, which in turn can affect the skin’s own ability to balance itself. Elemis Balancing Lime Blossom Cleanser is specifically designed to rebalanced problematic skin and uses lime blossom, lecithin and vitamin E help to balance excess surface oils and soothe the skin.

Normal skin

If you’ve got normal skin, this means that you don’t generally suffer with dryness, oiliness or sensitivity and can usually use any products. Elemis Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm is actually suitable for all skin types, and contains elderberry, starflower and optimega oils as well as anti-ageing algae to melt away the day’s make-up and grime.

Sensitive skin

Having sensitive skin is a bit like dealing with an angry toddler – give it too much or too little attention and it’s going to throw a tantrum either way! Sensitive skin requires products which are gentle enough to clean away dirt without affecting the skin’s delicate balance, and also needs to be able to soothe skin which is already over-sensitised. Elemis Sensitive Cleansing Wash is a rich cleansing foam to condition and moisturise the face during cleansing, and also purifies, soothes and calms the skin, cleansing without soap to protect the skin’s natural acid mantle.

Dull skin

If your skin is looking dull and lacklustre, you’ll need a cleanser which can buff away the top layer of dead cells, give you a fix of nutrients and use a pre-biotic to leave your skin looking radiant. Elemis Superfood Facial Wash is rich in vitamins and omega 3 and 6 essential fatty acids, and cleanses, nourishes and revitalises dull skin to reveal a more glowing complexion. It’s also vegan friendly.
