You might not think you have time for a toner in your life, but we think you need to make time if you want to keep your skin healthy and in tip-top in your beauty regime, and extra money out of your bank account, but we hope our overview of some of the best toners we sell, will make you rethink.

One of the most popular toners at Pure Beauty works for all skin types and is the Dermalogica Multi-Active Toner. This refreshing blend of skin-repairing aloe,moisture-binding sodium PCA and soothing lavender, mint, and arnica is perfect for hydrating skin after cleansing. The hygienic, fragrance-free spray can be used throughout the day and because it evens out skin porosity, it means your moisturiser to be evenly absorbed, which has to be a good thing.

If balance is what you need, the Elemis Balancing Lavender Toner is for you. This product effectively tones the skin and rebalances the pH levels, without the use of alcohol or harsh chemicals, so you are left with a fresh, clear complexion. Extracts of lavender, sweet Betty flower and saponins from Quillaja wood are all part of the blend and we think you will love it as much as we do.

While the Dermalogica Redness Relief Essence is lightweight like a toner it is concentrated like a serum, which means it reduces redness and sensitivity by strengthening the skin’s moisture barrier. As part of the UltraCalming line, this product works to relieve, restore and hydrate skin, taking care of discomfort and dehydration and is a great addition to the beauty regime of anyone with sensitive skin.

How about trying the Decleor Essential Tonifying Lotion? This professional-strength toner totally enhances the toning process and leaves skin feeling beautifully refreshed, revitalised and rehydrated. Detoxifying green tea essential water removes impurities and tightens pores, while neroli essential oil helps protect, repair and fight against dehydration, something many of us need in the summer heat and on long flights. Use after cleansing by applying to the face using a damp cotton pad or clean face cloth which can then be used to absorb any excess product before your moisturiser comes on the scene.

Breakout prone skin needs toner love too, and this is where the Dermalogica All Over Toner comes into play. This light, refreshing, purifying, spritz on toner is suitable for teenage skin and is a great intro to a good beauty habits. Salicylic acid exfoliates surface skin cells and reduces inflammation. Orange peel and lavender soothe and refresh sad skin, while the antiseptic in tea tree oil kills bacteria and you can spray the toner over your face, and as well as anywhere else that is prone to breakouts. Try to give it time for the toner to absorb before applying other products and use morning and evening for best results.

If you are worried you won’t be able to take a toner in your luggage this summer, think again. The fantastic Decleor Essential Tonifying Lotion now comes in a 50ml bottle, and is perfect for ensuring your skin is refreshed and balanced when you are away. This gentle paraben-free toner contains neroli essential oil which protects and repairs your skin whilst easing dehydration so you are left with a complexion that is moisturised and radiant.

Need help to find the toner for you, get in touch and we would love to help.

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.

Turn the page of any magazine, read any lifestyle blog or scroll through pretty much any IG feed, and you are bound to come across someone, somewhere talking about the latest superfood that will make you look, and feel, amazing.

We are advised to add Avocado, Goji Berries, Nuts, Coconut Water and Spinach to smoothies, shakes and salads to give us the nutrients we need to glow and feel fuller, for longer.

We are all for healthy diets, but it is good to remember that what you put on your skin can also influence how good it looks and this is why we love the Superfood Skincare System from Elemis.

Made from a blend of plant-based, nutrient-dense ingredients, as well as a natural sugar derived prebiotic, these products can help to replenish your skin and feed it with the vital hydrating nourishment that creates a healthy, outdoor glow.

There are facial washes and then there is the Elemis Superfood Facial Wash. This gorgeous nourishing facial wash revives and refreshes the skin while deeply cleansing it, so it is left feeling fresh and soft. Just like a healthy salad, this product is made from Avocado, Broccoli and Pumpkin Seed Oils which all help to balance the skin’s precious microbiome. Wheatgrass, Kale, and Nettle have also been added to the mix and mean that your complexion will look luminous, bright and radiant.

The Elemis Superfood Day Cream combines Ginger and Matcha Tea which work together to leave your complexion looking healthy from the very first application. Goji Berries, which are super rich in vitamins, essential fatty acids and antioxidants, help protect the skin’s natural barrier from the elements, which is what you need in both summer and winter. The easily absorbed cream should be used after cleansing and your skin will feel soft and supple all day long.

You might not think an oil would work as part of your beauty regime, but believe us when we say you need the Elemis Superfood Facial Oil in your life. This blend of concentrated plant-based superfoods nourishes and hydrates the skin, but doesn’t leave it greasy or shiny. The goodness comes from anti-oxidant and omega-rich Broccoli, Flax Seed and Daikon Radish as well as Cucumber Oil, which all help to retain moisture and soothe the skin. Massaging just a couple drops of drops into your face and neck each morning, will soften and smooth the skin and leave it looking healthy and bright.

Superfoods don’t stop working when you sleep, so we would suggest using the Elemis Superfood Night Cream if you want to wake up with skin that has a fresh, youthful glow. A pre-biotic has been blended with Barley, Quinoa and Sweet Almond Milk so that your skin is nourished as you snooze. The cream is rich in the omegas and anti-oxidants that feed the skin and thanks to a blend of Lavender, Ylang Ylang and Vetivert Essential Oils being added to the mix, this cream also helps you to relax and fall asleep.

For more information, get in touch and we would love to find a superfood solution that is perfect for you.
