Vitamin E is both a nutrient and an antioxidant, and the oil in its purest form is extremely versatile and nourishing and a great way to feed your skin. You can find Vitamin E in many creams, lotions, hand creams and cleaners as well as sunscreens, moisturisers and skin brighteners.

We have had a look at some of the products we stock that could help you get the skin your deserve because they come with a healthy serving of Vitamin E.

Cleansing your skin is really important, and we would suggest trying the Elemis Balancing Lime Blossom Cleanser if you have combination or congested skin. This lush product removes pollutant build up, dirt and make-up and thanks to extracts of Lime Blossom, Lecithin and that all important Vitamin E, it also helps to balance excess surface oils and soothe your skin.

We love the Dermalogica Skin Smoothing Cream 2.0 and the new formulation means it is better than ever for your complexion. Incorporating Active HydraMesh Technology™ this cream can hydrate your skin for up to 48 hours as well as protecting it from the elements. Vitamin E is just one of the antioxidants that helps reduce free radical activity, and because this cream locks in moisture and protects your skin’s beneficial bacteria, you are left with healthy, soft, smooth skin that you will love.

Vitamin E is also found in the Jan Marini Age Intervention Retinol Plus Mask which is great when it comes to dealing with the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, and hyperpigmentation. Packed with Retinol, Hyaluronic Acid, Essential Fatty Acids, Shea Butter and Vitamin E, when applied to the face for just ten minutes, twice a week, you are left with fresh, polish skin that is glowing and healthy.

If dry, ageing skin is a problem for you, we would suggest trying the Dermalogica Multivitamin Power Firm because the blend of ingredients in this firming complex, help to protect, repair and strengthen your skin. Vitamin E, along with Vitamins A and C have been mixed with Red Seaweed and Green Tea to protect vulnerable skin and prevent the moisture loss that can be so ageing around your eyes and mouth.

Dry hands are a problem for many of us and it isn’t surprising given what we subject them to on a daily basis. For hands that are soft and smooth, as well as sweet-smelling, the Elemis Pro-Radiance Hand and Nail Cream is just the ticket. This luxurious cream contains Milk Protein, Avellana Seed Oil, Omega 7, Vitamin E, Camellia, Virgin Plum and Macadamia Oils which together form a silky barrier that locks in moisture. Thanks to Litsea, Jasmine, Magnolia and Vanilla, this cream smells amazing and we think you will be hooked from the very first application.

We are big fans of the Jan Marini Luminate Eye Gel and for good reason. This little pot of goodness not only brightens skin but also helps to reduce the appearance of under eye circles, fine lines and wrinkles. Vitamin E is just one of the ingredients in this gel which will get to work hydrating the eye area, making it look smoother, healthier and brighter.

Regardless of generation or age, these days, men are investing more time, energy and money in their appearance than ever before.

At Pure Beauty we are here to help everyone look, and feel, great, and today we are looking at products that give men a boost!

The Elemis Pro-Collagen Marine Cream for Men has been created just for men and helps to hydrate and firm their skin and improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. From the word go, skin is left looking smoother than before and feels refreshed and replenished. Mediterranean Algae, Padina Pavonica, Ginkgo Biloba and soothing Abyssine™ come together to help with suppleness, firmness and elasticity – what’s not to like?

The Decleor Triple Action Shave Perfector is a super serum that prepares the skin for shaving. A cocktail of essential oils have been mixed to meet the exact needs of men’s skin and this can lead the way to a smoother, clearer, fuss-free shave. Applying three drops of the serum to cleansed skin will prepare it for shaving, and when used after your shave, it can soothe razor burns and enhance the effectiveness of your other products.

With a month’s supply of the world’s first fully customisable shave routine, the Dermalogica Shave Essentials Trio shows you how well you can treat your skin when shaving. The set comes with the Dermalogica Daily Clean Scrub (44ml), Dermalogica Soothing Shave Cream (74ml) and Dermalogica PostShave Balm (10ml) and we think you will be hooked after your very first shave.

Whether it’s from golf, driving, football or gardening, the Elemis Aching Muscle Super Soak will help to ease overworked, tired muscles. This natural foaming bath soak smells amazing and works wonders on aches and pains. Extracts of Birch, Juniper, Clove, Alpine Lavender, Wild Thyme and Blue Chamomile have been mixed with Sea Salt which together warm muscles and recharge bodies.

Men don’t escape the ravages of time, which is why so many of them love the Elemis Anti-Ageing Time Defence Eye Reviver. This lightweight anti-ageing men specific eye cream has been clinically proven to reduce the depth of wrinkles by up to 37% in less than a month and increase skin hydration by up to 82% in the same time period – wow! Created to help support skin elasticity and to tighten, firm and hydrate, this will be a welcomed addition to any bathroom cabinet.

When it comes to the sun, everyone needs protection. The Dermalogica Protection 50 Sport SPF50 defends against UV light and can be used by anyone, so no excuses boys. Oleosome Microspheres enhance the performance of the SPF and counteract the moisture loss that can be triggered by being out in the sun. The cream sinks into the skin without a greasy after-feel and should be liberally rubbed into your skin at least 15 minutes before going into the sun.

How to make your home, your sanctuary

When you close your front door, you want to make sure your home is a sanctuary that helps you to relax and get away from the stresses of the day.

We have had a look at some changes you can make, to bring a little calm to your life.

Clear away the clutter
Clutter not only attracts dust, which can irritate allergies, but it plays on your mind as it is a constant reminder of what you need to do, fix or finish. Piles of ‘stuff’ won’t help create calm, so have a declutter. Whether you go room by room, or person by person, find a system that works for you and either find a home for items, give them away or recycle them, but don’t hold onto what you don’t need, or want, anymore.

What colours work for you?
Don’t underestimate the power of colour in your home as this can help create a haven. Maybe you love cool, calm Scandi grey tones, warm earth-based pigments are the preference for some people while others love to bask in bright colours that make them feel happy. Get some samples from your local DIY shop and add stripes of colour to one wall, and you will see how different shades could work in your home and give it a whole new feel.

Bring the outside, inside
There is nothing quite like a little greenery in your home to make it feel serene. Bringing the elements into your home puts you in touch with nature and adds a little more colour and vibrancy. Whether you have potted plants and ferns, herbs growing in the kitchen, or flowers in vases, having them in your home can help change the feeling of that space. If you are short on outside areas, why not plant up a window box with lavender and hyacinth which will offer sweet scents during spring and summer as well as a splash of colour.

Think about the walls
Do you go for paint or wallpaper? Are you big on mirrors? Paintings and photographs – do you have lots of them hidden away? Work out whether you want a minimalist look, or is it a busier background you are going for? Think about what makes you happy and create a canvas you love.

What’s that smell?
Scents can really help shift our mood – just think about how you feel when you walk into a spa. Adding natural fragrances with flowers, herbs, and essential oils are a great way to bring a sense of serenity to your home and make it feel like a sanctuary. Try using naturally scented candles, but keep an eye on them, and diffusers are a fantastic way to ensure your home smells lovely and welcoming.

Think about your bathroom
Far from being a place to simply wash and go, your bathroom really can be a place where you can relax and leave the world behind. Go for pale walls and tiles and accessorise with pretty pots and curtains, as well as matching towels. Have a box for children’s toys and mats, so that when you want to relax in the bath, Barbie and SpongeBob don’t spoil the moment. Candles add a soft, glow and playing music can really set the tone and don’t forget to add bubbles.

Play around with some ideas and we think you will find something that is perfect just for you.

Take the financial squeeze away from Christmas

The ads are on TV, the lights are up in town, and those shopping lists are getting longer by the day. While Christmas is meant to be a time of celebration and joy, the reality is that all those presents, splashing out on a new dress for the Christmas party and having to buy another Secret Santa, means that our bank balances, and stress levels, can go into the red.

We have had a look at some easy ways to boost your cash flow at a time when you most need it, and take off some of the pressure that can take the fun out of Christmas.

Sell what you don’t need
Have a look in your loft and cupboards and we bet there are loads of things gathering dust that you don’t need, but that someone else would snap up! You don’t have to head out to a cold, rainy car boot sale to flog your stuff these days as there are lots of selling sites out there, as well as great local groups on Facebook that work really well. Whether it’s a mobile phone that you no longer use, a keyboard you never play, or a pair of heels that are just too high, the internet means you have a global marketplace to sell what you don’t need, but other people do!

Make the most of your skills
The Sunday Times bestseller, The Multi-Hyphen Method, looks at how you don’t need to have one main job anymore. From writing and photography, to social media management and dog sitting, there are lots of side hustles out there you can get involved with to make some extra money. Make sure you get things sorted out first, like your tax and insurance, and then rather than watching TV or playing on the X-Box, you could use that time to clear your overdraft and get together some much-needed extra cash.

Make a switch
Simply switching bank accounts you could make yourself a tidy pile of cash – check The Money Saving Expert to find out how. You can also look at switching your utilities if you want to save more money and make a tidy pile of cash. It might be a little bit of a hassle, but there are some good deals out there if you do your research.

Secret Santa
If you are really smart, don’t buy everyone a present this Christmas, instead think about doing a Secret Santa. Whether it is for extended family, work colleagues or flatmates, set a budget, pick something you know your chosen recipient will love and you won’t only save money, you’ll have less things to sell to on eBay next Christmas too!

Go for deals
When it does coming to shopping, look out for the deals, there are many to be had. From discounts, ‘buy one get one free’ offers, samples and three for two deals, you will find a lot of ways to make your cash go further.

The great thing about all of these ideas, is that while they can help you around Christmas, if you put them into play all the time, your bank account should be healthy 12 months of the year.

Read any magazine, scroll through any social media feed or watch any TV show, and it’s all about having dewy skin.

The reason this look is so popular is because, not only does it look feminine and natural, but this kind of plump, hydrated skin is a sign of youth, something so many of us desire, whatever our age.

At Pure-Beauty we sell a range of products that take care of your skin and give you that youthful, dewy look you thought was long gone.

Let’s kick things off with the Dermalogica Phyto Replenish Oil. Just a little goes a long way to restoring the protective lipids which are key for preserving a dewy, youthful appearance. Ageing and environmental stresses are a part of life, but both of these factors can deplete lipids, leaving skin vulnerable to the dryness and dehydration that ages us and makes us look tired. Camellia Oil, Orchid Flower Extract, Sunflower Seed Extract, Rosemary Leaf Extract, and Chia Seed Oil have been specially blended, and pressing just a few drops of this potion into cleansed skin can lock in moisture and glean great results.

Our eyes often give away the toils of our lives, so why not try out the Elemis Pro-Definition Eye and Lip Contour Cream and bring dewy back? This nourishing eye and lip cream, firms and plumps the skin so that fine lines disappear and complexions look more youthful and renewed. Gently smoothing a little of the cream around the eye and lip contours, morning and night, will help bring sagging skin, that has lost definition, back to life once again.

As well as cleansing, toning, and moisturising, if you really want dewy skin, you need to exfoliate too. We love the Elemis Gentle Rose Exfoliator because not only does it smell amazing, it buffs away dirt and dead skin cells so that your complexion is left looking glowing, and yes, dewy too. Ideal for sensitive and mature skin types, using this product, which is packed with restoring Absolute of Moroccan Rose, Jojoba beads and refreshing cucumber, could be the best thing you do for your skin.

The Jan Marini Luminate Face Mask is a great way to not only reduce the appearance of discolouration, but regular use will give you brighter, more youthful, dewy looking skin. Relatively new to the Pure Beauty family, this targeted mask works not only as a stand-alone product, but complements any skincare routine and helps you feel more confident about your skin and how it looks. Exfoliators gently remove dull, dry skin cells, while calming agents reduce irritation and redness, and the results are clear to see from the very first use.

If you are young at heart and want a complexion to match that sentiment, look no further than the Decleor Magnolia Youthful Oil Serum. Part of the popular Orexcellence range, this gorgeous oil serum is made with essential oils of Magnolia and Ginger as well as botanical oils of Hazelnut and Jojoba, and together they offer a concentrate of energy for the skin. Regular application, after toning and before moisturising, helps skin look plumper and firmer and gives a fresh, dewy, luminous glow.

For more information, why not get in touch and we will help you to find the products which will ensure your skin looks fresh and dewy all year round, and we will even send you samples so you can try before you buy.
