This week we wanted to talk a little bit about the amazing cosmetics brands that we carry. With a focus on natural and organic beauty made locally in England we have curated some of our favourite products that will transform your routine. Especially with the colder seasons fast approaching our skin will need extra focus and nourishment to make it through the cool temperatures and the wind that can easily dry out any skin type. Keep reading for our favourite products and tips from two great brands.
Evolve Beauty is a small cosmetics company that makes all of their products by hand in small batches in their studio in Hertfordshire, England. All of the Evolve products are completely vegan, cruelty free and eco-friendly. The brand is inspired by using all natural ingredients and making their products in small batches to ensure the freshness of the antioxidants in the different natural oils and extracts. Below you can learn about our favourite Evolve products and how to best use them in your routine.
Evolve Bio retinol + C Booster
This Rosehip oil based booster is an absolute lifesaver for those of us who suffer from dull and dry skin, especially in the coming colder months. In this booster you have bio retinol and vitamin c combined to bring you the most amount of nourishment to your skin. As this is an oil based product it allows the ingredients to penetrate deeper into the skin and boost the radiance and luminosity of your skin. An added bonus of vitamin E and F are also added into the product giving you that extra jolt of antioxidants and nourishment to replenish your skin. Add drops of this booster into your skincare routine by mixing it in with a serum or your moisturiser to ensure a healthy glow throughout the year.
The Daily Facial Cream is a great moisturiser to add to your routine. For normal to dry skin, this moisturiser is a mix of Organic Argan oil and hyaluronic acid making it great for hydrating the skin and ensuring a youthful glow. Argan oil is very high in Vitamin E and fatty acids, which are also great for repairing the skin and great for preventing future damage. The cream is also lightly fragranced with vanilla and coconut natural fragrance, giving it a lovely soft smell without causing irritation. This is a must have item for all year round and a great everyday step in your skincare routine.
If you are looking for a new facial oil to add to your routine, look no further. The award winning Miracle Facial Oil from Evolve is suitable for all skin types (yes, even if you have oily skin) and is a mix between Rosehip, Argan and Nigella oils, meaning this oil is full of nourishment and anti-ageing components. Full of natural retinol, fatty acids, antioxidants, and Vitamin A and E this product is made for fighting signs of ageing, irritation and dryness. Finish your skincare routine with this oil to lock in the goodness you have put on the skin.
The cacao & blueberry mask is an extremely rich mask with a clay base, which purifies and revitalises the skin. The natural sugar grains in the mask also gently exfoliate and then easily rinse off the face when coming into contact with water. The raw cacao is very high in antioxidants to improve your complexion and the hydration of your skin, while the magnesium, vitamin c and fatty acids are important in rejuvenating your skin cells. This is a great quick mask for weekly use, as you only need to leave it on for 5 minutes before rinsing. Also a great pick for a self care moment to relax and take the stress of the work week away.
Evolve has a new Age Smarter 360 concept looking at the way you should take care of your skin at every stage of life. This serum is an important part of your skincare routine to not only fight fine lines, but also age spots, and to improve texture and luminosity. The advanced formula is filled with superfoods, such as Sacha Inchi Peptides, the Peruvian superfood that helped the ancient Incas to live over 100 years old, Peruvian Maca, used for centuries to boost energy, and Cacay Oil from an Amazonian tree. These superfoods in skincare are proven to improve firmness, smooth the skin, stimulate cellular renewal to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and to support the skin barrier and lock in moisture with bio retinol and linoleic acid. This is an absolute must have item for any age and skin type to make sure you are keeping your skin at its best throughout your years.
Evolve Tropical Blossom Body Butter and Polish
These two products are our secret to silky smooth skin. The polish contains natural sugar grains to buff the skin and natural Tahitian coconut Monoi macerated in exotic blossoms of Gardenia. To make rinsing as easy and smooth as possible the natural sugar extracts turn the consistency into a milky cream when they come into contact with water, leaving your skin clean and polished. Follow this with the matching body butter, which is a mix of shea butter and Tahitian Monoi with a hint of exotic natural hibiscus fragrance to leave your skin feeling incredible all day.
Other than the incredibly gorgeous, simple packaging, there are a lot of reasons to love Sop products. They are a Norfolk based bodycare brand inspired by their local nature. All of the products are vegan and cruelty free and stored in eco-friendly aluminium bottles, which are incredibly aesthetically pleasing with their minimalist labels.
Smur Shampoo in Neroli & Ylang Ylang & Loke Conditioner in Juniper & Grapefruit
This shampoo and conditioner combination is not only completely free of parabens, silicone, artificial colours and fragrances but it’s also an affordable price for a locally in England made product from natural ingredients that will leave your hair feeling silky every time.
The Dene Bodywash in Bergamot & Black Pepper and Beck Handwash in Eucalyptus & Siberian Fir
The Dene bodywash is inspired by beautiful sandy beaches, while the Beck handwash is inspired by small streams in nature. Both of them are best-sellers from the range and guaranteed to give you a fresh feeling while being cruelty free, vegan and free of parabens, silicone and artificial colours and fragrances. You will not regret adding these products into your daily regime.
If you have any questions about these products and how to use them we would be more than happy to help you integrate them into your routine!
