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.

Ever get to the end of the month and find yourself in the red?

Fed up of never being able to go on holiday, despite working hard?

Keep buying scratch cards in the hope of becoming winning big?

All too many people find that there simply isn’t enough cash to go round and with the General Election and Brexit making things even more uncertain, the money pot seems to only get smaller.

Fear not, while we aren’t saying money grows on trees, if you have a little spare time, vision and dedication you can add to your bank account, without changing the day job.

Be a blogger
Blogging is easy to set up and a great way to generate a passive income. Decide on a name, choose a platform (Blogger and WordPress are popular), buy a domain name and pay for hosting and you are on a way. You then need to create content that people want to read – this is the key to success. Maybe it is health, fitness, books, travel or parenting, but make sure you have an audience and when you write posts, make them relevant and interesting so people want to come back. Once you’ve gained a following, you can make money from:

• Being an affiliate where you are pushing other people’s products or services on your site. Make sure these products or services are relevant to your blog, such as baby food, shoes or make-up and when a visitor clicks that link on your site, you’ll earn commission.
• Selling advertising is great once you have traffic running through your site and as your visitor numbers increase, so does the change for ad space on your blog.
• Sponsorship could be a one-off feature or a logo on your site and as the stat’s go up, so do the deals.
• You can also review products on your site, but be sure to disclose and brand relationships and be true to yourself, your readers and the powers that be (Google).

Selling stuff
We bet if you spring clean your house you will find a lot of stuff you just don’t need. Unworn clothes, flippers, a smoothie maker, golf clubs are all things you might not need but someone else might want.
Amazon, eBay, Gumtree are all perfect online places to sell things that are gathering dust but could easily turn into enough money for a weekend away or a much-needed new TV. You can also go to car boot sales where you can flog your stuff make a killing.

Rent a Room
OK, someone else in your house might not seem ideal but if it means and extra £500 a month in the kitty, maybe it is worth a go? Make sure you have a decent spare room, ask family and friends if they know anyone looking for digs, and of course, make sure you do interviews, get references and a deposit before handing over any keys.

Stocks and Shares
Investing in stocks and shares has been a popular way to earn a passive income for years, and thanks to the internet, today it is easier to do than ever. Go online and do some research, maybe speak to an expert, start small, see how the markets go and you never know, this time next year you could be a millionaire.

Online Surveys
OK, it isn’t massive money, but for a few minutes of form filling you can make a couple of quid answering online surveys, and if you do enough the total soon adds up.

Get on Your Bike
Got a car, bicycle or motorbike? What about a Smartphone? This is pretty much all you need to make some extra money by delivering food, or people, in your spare time.

Get Competitive
Sounds silly but entering competitions can make you rich. There are no guarantees, but there is a growing community of ‘compers’ in the UK who are making five-figure sums by entering all sorts of competitions, all of the time.

Be an Extra
If you fancy being on the big screen, or small one for that matter, agencies are always looking for extras for TV shows and films. You need to be flexible and able to get from A to Z under your own steam, but it fun, easy and pays alright. And, you never know who you might meet on set.

Get Walking
Fancy some fresh air and exercise, well the good news is that walking other people’s dogs is big business. If you have free time during the day, when others are out at work and worried about their pets at home, and you like dogs and are professional, there’s a ready-made market waiting for you.

Got a money-making idea we have missed, let us know, we are all ears.

Festival safety and wellbeing

V, Glastonbury, Reading and many other music festivals are on the horizon. The excitement is mounting, the tents are being packed and plans are being made.

Whilst there is no doubt that festivals are great fun and an amazing experience, it is vital to keep safe and be vigilant whilst you attend, or things can get messy .

We have some handy tips to help you have a great time but keep safe at the same time.

Make a list of everything you need to pack; from loo roll and deodorant, hay fever medicine and wipes to wellies and torches.

Safety in numbers is true so try to stay with your tribe and if you plan to go solo, let them know.

Organise a meeting point with your friends so you can get together at specified times of the day. This way you know you can find each other if you get split up.

It is a good idea to locate the medical centre when you arrive and put a flag on your tent so you can see it when heading back to base.

Keep your mobile phone charged and with you at all times and take out insurance. Add an emergency number, just incase, and a tracker so you can find your phone it is gets lost or stolen.

Leave valuables at home. Yes you might want to look good and record your fav bands for YouTube but not everyone on site will be the model citizen. Keep anything of value with you at all times and even better, leave it at home.

Don’t assume things will be safe in your car or tent and don’t ask new found friends to look after your stuff.

Basic, but keep your hands clean and wash them after going to the look and before eating, you don’t want to get a bug on site.

Music festivals and feet don’t always go together, especially when it rains. Try to keep them clean and dry to prevent blisters, infections and trench foot. None are pleasant and they can all make you feel rotten, so invest in your feet.

Just as it might be wet, it can also be sunny, so take your sunscreen, a hat and glasses.

Drink plenty of water and do it before you are actually thirsty. Keep a bottle of water with you at all times and don’t get hydrated from the combination of dancing, heat, lack of food and booze.

Don’t leave your drink unattended. Any drink can be spiked and the consequences aren’t worth it.

Keep your cool. It will be busy and crowded so don’t get annoyed by the hustle and bustle as things can quickly escalate and the last thing you want it to go home with a black eye.

Alcohol and drugs will be on offer but remember both can affect your ability to make safe judgements, so have fun but be safe.

It might not look cool, but if you need to, wear ear plugs. The music can be really loud and if you are close to the stage or near the speakers, you might want to protect your hearing.

From pollen to smoke from fires, BBQs and cigarettes, there can be added pollution in the air so if you have asthma ensure you take your inhalers and any other medication.

At night, stay on the main roads and routes and don’t go off exploring in the dark.

Never hesitate to get help if you think you are in danger. Don’t worry about making a fuss – it’s far better to be safe than for something awful to happen.

Have fun, make memories but be safe!
