Favourites of 2018. Part 1: Bath and Body

I tried some fantastic natural beauty products during 2018. Here is my round up of the year, starting with bath and body products.

The last Love Lula box of 2018 was a superb collection of cruelty-free beauty.

My last picks of 2018 from Love Lula were some crackers (no pun intended).

Cruelty-Free Christmas Gift Guide 2018

With the rise of consumer interest in natural, cruelty-free and vegan products, there are a wealth of gifts out there just waiting if you know where to look.

Review: Ethically Organic Skin Care

Recently I had the opportunity to try three products from Ethically Organic, a 99% organic and 100% natural skin care brand run by Brad and Sallyanne. They are certified by PETA and all their products are vegan.

The Love Lula Christmas Gift Guide

Green beauty shopping site Love Lula is a great place to start for natural, cruelty-free treats for the folks in your life.

The theme for this month's box was Winter Skin Saviours. I was so excited to receive it and it didn't disappoint. There were three new to me brands, I don't know how Emma keeps digging up these hidden gems! 😍

November Love Lula Picks

I chose two products from Love Lula to review this month - the Forrest and Love Aroma Car Cushion Set and Tabitha James Kraan's golden citrus shampoo - and was sent a third to try, Saint Come's thyme and cinnamon room spray.

This month's box was top - and bottom - heavy on the exfoliators 😜as befits this time of year

October Empties

Somewhat later than billed, I present my October empties. I was pleased that less than half of them are in plastic containers.

The October Natural Beauty Box

This month's theme was Dreamy Days and I have to say Emma, in collaboration with Rare Beauty, the women-led natural skincare site, has really outdone herself. This is one of my favourite curations of the year.

Here are the 5 lovely products I chose to review this month from Love Lula. As the nights start to draw in, I focused mainly on body care as my skin needs extra help in colder weather.

The August Natural Beauty Box

The theme for August's Natural Beauty Box was Quench and Glow with 6 gorgeous cruelty-free, natural and vegan products to enhance your skin routine.

Review: Botanicals Foot Care Products

Recently I've been trialling two foot care products from Botanicals, one of my favourite vegan natural skin care companies. As I stand up all day in my job, my feet are always in need of attention and I do my best to keep them in good condition.

Quarter Two Empties 2018

As the last couple of empties I did were a bit poor in terms of quantity, I decided to save empties for a quarterly post (and then promptly got behind and missed Q1 completely - although I aim to get that up too!), so here it is, empties from April, May and June of 2018.
