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.

We are constantly being reminder of the importance of using an SPF product to keep our skin healthy and protected from the sun, in the summer and during the rest of the year.

At Pure Beauty, we believe that incorporating sun protection into your everyday beauty routine is an absolute must, and we sell a range of products that help you to do exactly that.

If you are looking for an anti-ageing moisturiser with sun protection, the Elemis Pro-Collagen Marine Cream SPF30 could be for you. This clinically proven (Independent Clinical Trials 2014) day cream is packed with powerful anti-ageing ingredients that help reduce the depth of wrinkles, improve firmness and hydrate the skin so it looks amazing. Padina Pavonica and Ginkgo Biloba improve suppleness and elasticity and a unique blend of sunscreen means you also get superior broad-spectrum protection, making this a winner in our book.

If you are looking for something that is water-resistant, we suggest trying the Dermalogica Protection 50 Sport SPF50. This broad-spectrum sun cream can be used on the face and body and is suitable for all skin types. The lightweight formula binds moisture to skin without leaving a greasy film and thanks to Oleosome microspheres, the SPF performance is enhanced but still apply at least 15 minutes before you go out in the sun and reapply after swimming, going in the sea or if you work up a sweat exercising.

At Pure Beauty we are massive fans of the Elemis Liquid Layer SPF30. Offering protection against UVA, UVB rays and pollution, this really is the first line of defence against sun damage and premature skin ageing. It works best when applied over your moisturiser and the white pigment of Titanium Dioxide helps scatter UVA and UVB rays and provide protection. Polymer Spheres also come into play and strengthen the work of the Titanium Dioxide by reflecting and refracting the UV rays. Impressive stuff, no? The overall results are that your skin is cared for and you have peace of mind when you are out in the sun – but try to wear a hat and sunglasses too when it is really hot.

The Decleor Protective Anti-Wrinkle Cream SPF30 not only protects your skin from the sun but it also helps to prevent premature ageing and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This product can be used on all skin types and it is suggested that it is applied evenly on the face and neck at least 30 minutes before going into the sun and reapplied every two hours.

If you are looking for added protection and a natural look, we love the Dermalogica Sheer Tint SPF20. It comes in light, medium and dark options and gives you not only wash of colour but an extra shield against damaging UV rays. Hydrolyzed Pearl amino acids, Hyaluronic Acid and antioxidant Walnut Seed extracts offer hydration so that skin looks, and feels, soft and nourished.

New to our site is Jan Marini and their Daily Face Protectant SPF30 packs a punch when it comes to sun protection. This easy to apply cream is invisible, hydrating and weightless and not only feels amazing when you apply it to your skin, it smells pretty great too. Water resistant for up to 80 minutes, it is packed with skin conditioning oil absorbing particles as well as multiple antioxidants, making this the ultimate in daily SPF wearability.

If you would like more details about these, or any other products, get in touch today and we would love to help find something that is right for you and can send samples too.
