With Wimbledon just around the corner, it’s time for strawberries and cream, gin and tonic and let’s not forget the tennis.

At Pure Beauty, we sell some first-class products that help ensure your skin is as super smooth as the winning action on centre court.

If you want to volley into sensational skin, the Elemis Fruit Active Rejuvenating Mask is for you. This isn’t just a cleansing mask but a refining one too that is rich in strawberries and kiwi fruit. Left on for 10 minutes, once or twice a week, this deep cleansing therapy revitalises, brightens and nourishes even the dullest of complexions

The Decleor Energising Smoothing Cream is as light as the best tennis shoes and comes with an SPF 15 so that skin is protected from the sun if it does come out to play. Galangal extract reduces the signs of fine lines while potent ginseng tones and visibly brightens the skin, eliminating signs of fatigue, which is great if your game isn’t quite up to speed.

If you are going for game, set and match, there is no doubt in our minds that you need the Elemis Superfood Berry Boost Mask on your side. This purifying mask comes complete with Brazilian purple clay and an omega-rich super berry complex that not only balances the skin but mattifies tricky t-zones too. In less time than it takes to run up Henman Hill, this mask will draw out impurities so that skin is smooth, healthy and hydrated.

Given that Wimbledon is in the city, after a day outside, you will love the Elemis Pro-Collagen Rose Cleansing Balm. This powerful, deep cleansing balm removes make-up, grime, and pollution thanks to a blend of English rose, elderberry, starflower, and padina pavonica. Skin is left feeling nourished and soothed, with a radiant glow. For best results, warm a little balm in your hands, smooth over your face, neck and décolleté and after gently massaging into your skin, rinse away and love the skin you are now in.

If running around in the sun isn’t your thing, but you’d like a tennis players’ glow, how about trying the Decleor Green Mandarin Sun-Kissed Glow Cream? This fantastic day cream helps prevent fine lines and wrinkles and gives you a sun-kissed glow at the same time. Citrus essential oils have been blended with hyaluronic acid and beta-carotene for a winning combo that re-energises tired looking skin.

All players get hot and bothered so after a great game and a cool shower, the Elemis Exotic Frangipani Monoi Body Cream is a limb loving ‘go to’ product. This luxurious body cream has been enriched with macadamia oil and fragranced with frangipani flowers which together, leave skin silky smooth and smelling lush.

Hand and nail care might not be everyone’s primary beauty concern, but they do take a battering every day, so giving them a little TLC isn’t a bad day.

At Pure Beauty, we sell a range of products that help keep your hands and nails looking, and feeling, fantastic.

Soap can really dry out your skin, so you may want to swap it for the Elemis Sensitive Cleansing Wash. While this is a fash wash, it is ideal for sensitive, dry hands because it is made from extracts of Thyme, German Chamomile and Lady’s Mantle which soothe and calm the skin. The rich cleansing foam cleans and conditions hands without the harshness of some soaps which means they are left feeling soft and refreshed.

The Elemis Exotic Frangipani Monoi Hand and Nail Cream is a gorgeous smelling hand cream that offers long-lasting comfort. It contains Shea Butter which is packed with essential fatty acids that leaves the hands feeling beautifully smooth and thanks to the Omegas 3, 6, 7 and Oleic Acid of Macadamia Seed Oil, skin is totally nourished from the very first use. Apply as needed and not only will you have happy hands but ones that are fragranced with the exquisite scent of Frangipani Flowers.

If you are worried about the signs of ageing on your hands, why not try the Jan Marini Bioglycolic Hand and Body Lotion? Glycolic Acid, Aminophylline and Shea Butter have been blended together to help improve the appearance of ageing and environmentally damaged skin. Used once or twice a day, this cream will lead to visibly smoother, hydrated skin.

One of our handbag essentials has to be the Elemis Pro-Radiance Hand and Nail Cream. Milk Protein, Avellana Seed Oil, Camellia, Virgin Plum and Macadamia have been mixed together to create a strong, but silky, barrier that locks in moisture. Litsea, Jasmine, Magnolia and a hint of Vanilla have also been added and this means that not only do your hands and nails look healthy and radiant, but they smell lush too.

If you do want to pay more attention to your nails, using the Elemis Sweet Orchid Monoi Body Oil can help. This divine body oil is enriched with a unique blend of Monoi and Mauve Butterfly Orchid which together condition your skin, hair, and nails. For best results, massage into your hands and feet after bathing as this will offer an intensive moisturising treatment and can form part of a home manicure and pedicure.

Age spots aren’t just a problem for faces, they can be seen on hands too. The Elemis White Brightening Dark Spot Corrector deals with these and thanks to the easy to use brush applicator, you can directly target key areas of concern on your face, neck, décolleté and hands. It is the combination of Vitamin C, Pea, Daisy and Garden Cress, a powerful anti-oxidant phytonutrient, that help reduce the intensity of dark spots and leave skin looking more even and youthful.

For many women, once they reach a certain age they notice that their skin has changed in many ways. Elasticity is often reduces, skin feels softer and more papery and many products can feel far too heavy to use on your face, despite the fact that dryness is often an issue for ageing skin, too. We’ve put together a list of five do’s and don’ts to help you deal with unfamiliar skin issues and so that you can avoid some of the most common mistakes that people make with ageing skin.

DON’T Drag Your Skin Down

When you’re applying an anti-ageing cream such as Elemis Pro-Collagen Marine Cream, it can be tempting to just rub it all over your face, willy-nilly, without thinking about what the actual motion of your hand is doing to your skin. We ALWAYS recommend that women should apply creams to their faces using a sweeping upwards circular motion so that delicate skin isn’t dragged downwards. This will also help to encourage circulation, which will additionally plump the skin.

DO Opt for a Wash of Colour

Many women find that foundation is simply too heavy on their skin and no matter which primers you use, make-up will accumulate between fine lines, giving a very uneven appearance. Opt instead for a wash of colour with a BB cream which will not only give you a layer of moisture, but will help to even your skin tone and give you a base which compliments your skin’s texture.

DON’T Forget Your Neck

Skincare doesn’t finish at your chin, and having a face which is as smooth as a baby’s bottom sitting atop a neck like a turkey will do you NO favours! Remember to apply your face cream all the way down to your chest, or even invest in a product which is specifically designed for necks and décolletage areas such as Elemis Pro-Collagen Neck and Decollete Balm.

DO Invest in an Eye Cream

Eyes are probably the first place to show signs of age and while you may have got away with using an all-over face cream in your thirties or forties, once you hit your fifties you’re probably going to need to invest in something specifically for this area. Decleor Lift and Firm Eye Cream is a great place to start as it contains ingredients which will reduce puffiness, tighten the skin and even reduce dark circles around your eyes.

DON’T Neglect Your Hands

Hands are another place where ageing catches up with us, and also a place where many people forget to care for. Hands will lose moisture quicker than almost anywhere else on your body, making ageing skin look even more obvious. You may also notice areas of hyperpigmentation (known in the old days as ‘liver spots’) which will give your age away quickly! Use Elemis Pro-Radiance Hand and Nail Cream which is designed to reduce the appearance of ageing on the hands and give you more radiant skin.
