We have looked at cleaners and toners available on the Pure Beauty website over the past couple of weeks, and today the spotlight is on moisturisers.

The right moisturiser can turn your skin from OK to amazing, so it is a good idea to find something that works for you, and we hope one of those is listed below will be what you have been looking for.

Dry and ageing skin needs some extra love and this is what you will find in every tube of Dermalogica Dynamic Skin Recovery. This moisturiser sinks into your skin so that it is not only hydrated but also defended against attack. The new formula came out in early 2019, and while it still has the texture and scent customers know and love, it is now powered by the latest technology which makes it better than ever. A new BioReplenish Complex contains barrier lipids which make the skin more resilient and supports recovery. Dual hyaluronic acid has been mixed with the original ingredients of echinacea, Centella Asiatica, and aloe which means happier, healthier skin with lines eased and hydration at a premium.

We love the Decleor Anti-Pollution Hydrating Gel-Cream and for good reason. This easy to use gel moisturiser helps hydrate your skin whilst protecting against damaging pollution. The unique formula includes microdroplets of oils have been placed in the water-based texture which means you get immediate hydration and beautiful smooth, luminous skin.

The fantastic Elemis Pro-Collagen Marine Cream SPF30 is a clinically proven anti-ageing moisturiser that, wait for it, reduces wrinkles, improves firmness and hydrates. Yup, trials proved it! Padina pavonica and ginkgo biloba come with anti-oxidants that improve suppleness and elasticity and the clever kids at Elemis have added a revolutionary blend of sunscreen for protection. Let’s not forget the Elemis Promise, which means you can use this and no your skin will be free from damaging parabens, sodium laureth sulphate, mineral oils, and artificial colours.

The Jan Marini Transformation Face Cream scores top moisturiser marks when it comes to reducing the visible signs of ageing whilst providing superb hydration. Anti-ageing peptides, hyaluronic acid, powerful antioxidants, skin loving Aloe Vera and gentle plant extracts have been combined to create a moisturiser that you and your face will love. From the first application, your skin will appear smoother and have a silky softness you will adore.

We all need a little love when it comes to moisturising and this is why we wanted to mention the Elemis Pro-Collagen Marine Cream for Men. This clinically proven, nourishing moisturiser helps to hydrate, firm and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and is just for men. Potent Mediterranean algae, Padina pavonica and ginkgo biloba have been blended with soothing Abyssine™ and together they improve moisturisation, skin suppleness, firmness and elasticity.

We are big fans of the Decleor Anti-Pollution Hydrating Fluid SPF30. This moisturiser hydrates and protects your skin thanks to a velvet veil of super light SPF protection. You might be surprised but it has a fresh, transparent texture that leaves your skin feeling hydrated and comfortable, rather than stick and white. The love doesn’t stop here, as it comes with hyaluronic acid, so fine lines are plumped away and you are left feeling, and looking, fantastic.

Acne prone skin still needs to be moisturised, and we would advise the Clear Start Dermalogica Hydrating Lotion. This lightweight, but effective moisturiser helps soothe and hydrate areas that feel dry and uncomfortable. We suggest applying the cream to the face and neck, morning and night after cleansing and toning, and letting the gentle botanical properties of ginger, orange and grapefruit get to work.

If you have any questions, or would like to try a sample or two, get in touch and let’s find the right moisturiser for you.

On 16th June, dads around the county will be encouraged to sit back, relax and enjoy some down time with family as they celebrate Father’s Day.

At Pure Beauty we sell some fantastic products that will make any dad feel loved and appreciated, the question is, what will be right for the dad in your life?

Let’s kick things off with the Elemis Pro-Collagen Marine Cream for Men. This clinically proven formula hydrates and firms the skin and also helps improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, but how does this work? Mediterranean algae has been super charged with anti-oxidant rich ginkgo biloba which together sink into the skin and feed it with goodness, so it is left feeling smooth and replenished.

For sporty dads, how about the Dermalogica Protection 50 Sport SPF50, because we all need to be protected from UV light and do as much as we can do limit damage caused by the sun. This lightweight formula helps neutralise damage and bind moisture to skin without a greasy after-feel and it comes in a handy tube that will fit in any gym back, cycling pack, climbing rucksack or swim kits.

If your dad is a bit of a hipster, the Elemis Smooth Result Shave and Beard Oil is a winner. This multi-purpose oil softens facial hair as well as getting skin ready for a shave thanks to added. Jojoba has been added to sooth and heal, while grape seed oil is part of the mix because it is super moisturising and nourishing.

Dads who like to play golf, garden or who have hard jobs, will often complain about aches and pains, so why not come to their rescue with a bottle of Elemis Aching Muscle Super Soak, and maybe a bottle of wine too? This gorgeous product helps to ease overworked, tired and aching muscles and is super popular with Pure Beauty customers. Birch, juniper, clove, lavender, thyme and chamomile have been mixed with sea salt and when added to bath water the dreamy concoction warms muscles and recharges bodies.

For a new take on after shave, we think trendy dads will go for the Decleor Soothing Aftershave Fluid. This light, non oily fluid soothes razor burns, helps heal small cuts and slows down hair re-growth. It also helps to rebalance skin by reducing excess sebum and last but not least, it hydrates the skin so that it looks, and feels, soft and supple. Winner!

If you want your dad to start, and end, the day in style, we would suggest buying them the Elemis Deep Cleanse Facial Wash. The gel has been made from a unique mix of oak bark, spearmint and peppermint that come in a milk protein base and together they remove impurities, decongest the skin and prevent ingrown hairs. The result is great skin and a happy dad – what more could you ask for?

For more information, get in touch and we would love to help you get it right for your dad this Father’s Day.

One question that we see a lot is “what can I do to help my XXX grow” – be it eyelashes, fingernails or hair, many of us want to give our body a helping hand when it comes to growing. There are some products out there which claim to help, but which really don’t do much at all, but we’ve got the inside scoop on several products which really do help growth in some way. Here are five of them:

Elemis White Flowers Eye and Lip Make-Up Remover

A lot of people hate their eyelashes, claiming that they’re too stubby, and many people find their own lashes damaged after having extensions removed. This make-up remover from Elemis is not just good for getting rid of the most stubborn waterproof make-up, but it also conditions the lashes from the root and encourages healthy growth.

Nailtiques Protein Formula 2

Nail growth often feels sluggish, especially if you’re someone whose nails are prone to splitting. This formula from Nailtiques is designed for soft, peeling and weak nails. It helps stimulate rapid growth and strengthens nails. It has won countless awards and is regarded as a cult classic by the beauty media.

Dermalogica Antioxidant HydraMist

If wrinkles and fine lines are your issue, then this mist from Dermalogica is the product for you. Palmitoyl tripeptide-5 stimulates collagen synthesis, which helps to firm skin and overrides the effects of MMPs. It also activates Tissue Growth Factor (TGF), a peptide that is required in its active state for collagen production to occur.

Decleor Aroma Nutrition Satin Softening Dry Oil

The current trend for thicker, more defined eyebrows is all well and good, but if like many of us you spent the Nineties and Noughties over-plucking your brows into oblivion, you might not have much to work with. Lots of people are having good results with this oil from Decleor, which conditions the existing hair and daily massage helps to stimulate hair growth.

Elemis Pro-Definition Eye and Lip Contour Cream

Bigger lips are pretty popular right now, and if you don’t want to opt for invasive procedures like lip fillers, then this lip cream is a good alternative. New chaperone technology with scientifically proven plant stem cells help to re-densify, plump and re-build thin, ageing skin around the lips, leaving your mouth looking plumped and more full.

We Do Like to Be Beside the Seaside!

We all love the seaside, here at Pure Beauty – the sun, sand, deck chairs and a cheeky ice cream…what’s not to love? But there’s even more to love about the sea, namely the wonderful, skin-nourishing ingredients that we can find beneath the waves. We’ve put together a list of five of our favourite products which are derived from things found in the sea, so you can see the benefits of marine-based extracts.

Dermalogica Power Rich

Marine botanicals are particularly powerful in the fight against ageing, which is why this moisturiser for prematurely ageing skin contains red seaweed extract to help stimulate and strengthen damaged tissue while supplying vital nutrients to help reduce fine, dry lines, resurface and regenerate skin. It’s also rich in phytic acid and hyaluronic acid to aid in softening and exfoliating the skin.

Elemis Papaya Enzyme Peel

If your complexion is looking dull and lacklustre, you’ll need a potent pick-me-up to give you your zing back. This peel from Elemis contains bladderwrack, seaweed also known as fucus vesiculosus, which s rich in minerals and trace elements and has powerful moisturising properties. Papain from papaya gently lifts dead skin cells while bromelain from pineapple purifies the skin.

Jan Marini Age Intervention Eye Cream

This cream from Jan Marini is specifically designed to target the eyes and contains algae extract which helps soften, smooth, hydrate, firm and define the appearance of the eye area. It provides dramatic reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and results in smoother, more supple looking skin.

Dermalogica Breakout Clearing Booster

Often, ocean-derived ingredients are associated with anti-ageing, but here, Dermalogica has harnessed the soothing power of seaweed to help control acne-prone skin. The spot-busting formula also contains phytoplankton extract which will work with skin’s natural microbiome and help prevent over drying.

Elemis Pro-Collagen Quartz Lift Serum

Arguably, Elemis is the home of some of the best marine-based products on the market, with its own range of Marine Creams. But this serum also contains seaweed extract and is just as deserving of a place on your shelf. It firms, smooths and lifts the skin, giving immediate tightening and firming results for a “face lifting” effect.

There’s more to cucumber than sandwiches

While the humble cucumber is often only seen as an afternoon tea afterthought or an extra in a smoothie when the fridge is running low, it is actually jam-packed (excuse the pun) with natural goodness that can really benefit our skin.

The flesh might mainly be water, but it is also home to Vitamin C and caffeic acid, which both help reduce inflamed and irritated skin. The peel is often sliced away before being laid on top of ham for sandwiches, but this contains silica, which can firm sagging skin and because cucumbers are 100% natural, even people with the most sensitive skin can usually incorporate this into their beauty routine.

We did a little research and realised that quite a few of the products we sell here at Pure Beauty contain cucumber, so we thought we would let you know what’s what when it comes to this gorgeous green diva.

One of Dermalogica’s most popular products is their Skin Smoothing Cream and we know first hand that just a little goes a long way to smoothing the fine lines which are caused by dehydration. When applied to cleansed and toned normal to dry skin types, moisturising Lecithin and Aloe Gel nourishes while Extracts of Mallow, Cucumber and Arnica soothe and hydrate. Used morning and evening on a regular basis, the result will be happy, soft skin that radiates health.

Cucumber in oil might not be a match made in picnic heaven, but it works when it comes to the gorgeous Elemis De-Stress Massage Oil. Perfect for soothing the mind, melting tension and easing muscles, this exquisite mix of pure essential oils deserves a place in every bathroom cabinet. Chamomile, Cucumber, Melissa, Marjoram, Geranium, Rosemary and Lavender have been blended and is the perfect way to treat dry, irritated and stressed skin, leaving it satin smooth and silky soft. Thanks to the aromatherapy benefits of the oil, when massaged into the skin at bedtime, it offers comfort and can also help you drift off to sleep, now we didn’t know cucumber could help do that!

It’s not just aging skin that needs a little love; young, blemish-prone complexions do too and cucumber is a hero again here. The Dermalogica Overnight Treatment is a soothing, hydrating product that has been blended with Green Tea, Lavender, and Cucumber which all help to calm unhappy skin.

The Elemis Gentle Rose Exfoliator is a great way to achieve radiant, soft skin and we love it. Used weekly this luxe product is perfect for buffing away dirt and dead skin cells, leaving behind a glowing, youthful complexion. Absolute of Moroccan Rose hydrates the skin, while Jojoba Beads exfoliates it and thanks to Cucumber your whole face is tightened and left feeling cool and refreshed after the very first use. Seeing, and feeling, is believing, so give it a go.

Dermalogica Intensive Eye Repair is an ultra-rich cream that helps diminish dry lines and repair damage around the delicate eye area. Skin-replenishing phytonutrients and botanicals of Cucumber, Butcherbroom, and Arnica help achieve optimum skin health and restores suppleness. Wild Yam Extract and Pro-Vitamin B5 help repair prematurely ageing skin, while antioxidant Vitamins A, C, and E together with Grape Seed Extract protect the skin from harmful free radicals.

We can’t help you with a lunchtime buffet, but if it’s beauty products that come complete with a serving of cucumber you are looking for, get in touch and we will show you the way.
