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.

Mother’s Day is a special day where we all get the chance to show our mums exactly what they mean to us. It’s a time when Mums deserve to be pampered, and buying them the gift of beauty is a great way to do that. We may be biased, but we think almost everything we stock would make an amazing gift for your Mum this Mother’s Day, but in the interest of narrowing it down a bit, here’s 5 of the best:

Elemis Treat Your Feet Foot Cream

If your Mum spends a lot of time on her feet, this foot cream would be the ideal present for her. It’s an intensely moisturising formula which melts into the feet, nourishing the skin and softening areas of hardness. It contains conditioning shea butter and jojoba oil and smells wonderful. It bears the Elemis promise, meaning your Mum knows that there’s no parabens, sodium laureth sulphate, DEA, mineral oil or artificial colours in her treat.

Decleor Iris Rejuvenating Night Balm

This night balm from Decleor is a product which will not only work hard to make your Mum’s skin feel amazing, but it will also give her an excuse to take five minutes to pamper herself each evening. It’s to work at night when the skin is most receptive and will soothe the skin, reduce fine lines and wrinkles and increase cell renewal.

Dermalogica AGE Smart Starter Kit

This gift set from Dermalogica is the perfect introduction for your Mum to the wonderful anti-ageing products that Dermalogica has to offer. It contains Dermalogica Skin Resurfacing Cleanser, Dermalogica Antioxidant HydraMist, Dermalogica Multivitamin Power Recovery Masque, Dermalogica Multivitamin Power Firm, Dermalogica Dynamic Skin Recovery SPF30, Dermalogica MAP-15 Regenerator, Dermalogica Renewal Lip Complex (sample), which means she’ll get a perfect overview of the products, allowing her to buy the full price versions for herself if she wants to.

Decleor 1000 Grains Body Exfoliator

This exfoliator from Decleor has a unique consistency, which starts as a gel, which then turns into an oil and then becomes an easy-to-rinse milk upon contact with water. It contains grapefruit oil and pearl sugar which combines to leave the skin feeling softer, smoother and refined.

Elemis Sweet Orchid Monoi Body Oil

Body oils are a great way to pamper yourself from head-to-toe and this one from Elemis has a fabulously indulgent fragrance. It’s rapidly absorbed providing superior moisturisation for dry, parched or mature skin and can even be used to condition the body, hair and nails.

Having a spa day is great for mind and body but not always for your budget and although many people try to do it at home, their experience is often lacking that true spa feel. We’ve been taking a look at what most people love about their spa experiences and have put together a list of tips for you to use to make sure that your home spa experience is as accurate as you can make it.

Lighting

Trying to lay back and enjoy a relaxing face mask is no good if you’ve got bright overhead lighting going on, so adjusting the lighting is essential for a relaxing environment. Candles give the best lighting as it’s natural and calming, but if you don’t fancy having open flames around you you could try some battery-powered tealights which give off a really similar light to proper candles without the risk!

Fragrance

Smell is one of the most powerful senses and as well as being able to evoke strong memories and emotions, it can dictate mood and energy. If your house doesn’t smell fabulous when you indulge in a home spa day then it’s much harder to get yourself into the right head-space. Invest in an oil burner or some wax melts in a fragrance which promotes relaxation and also apply some Elemis Quiet Mind Temple Balm to your temples to promote harmony, tranquillity and relaxation.

Tools

Think about the treatments you intend to give yourself and whether there are any tools that you’ll need to do so. Obviously a fluffy robe and slippers are an absolute must, and you may want to lay an old, clean sheet over your bed to protect your bedding from any oils. Using an Elemis Body Detox Skin Brush to thoroughly remove dead skin cells and improve circulation is a great way to start your home spa experience and will make your skin more receptive to any other products you choose to use.

Treatments

Unless you have a willing spa partner, you’ll have to think about what you’re actually able to achieve by yourself. Obviously it’ll be impossible to give yourself a full body massage (unless you’re SUPER bendy!) but massaging smaller areas such as your own hands and feet, neck, face and calves is much more achievable. Invest in some Elemis De-Stress Massage Oil to help you to release tension and feel thoroughly revitalised.

Pick Your Moment!

Finding time for yourself can often be tricky but planning your home spa day is all about timing. Try to do it when you won’t have people walking in and out of your room asking for pairs of clean socks or where their homework has disappeared to, make sure the dog has been walked and you aren’t waiting for a parcel to be delivered otherwise it will all make it so much harder to get into a relaxed and serene mood.
