Clean Fresh Skin with THALGO Purity Freshness Exfoliator

You may well be aware I love skincare, and love treating myself to a DIY facial, once a week at least I deep cleanse, exfoliate, mask, usually either a deep cleansing or ultra-nourishing one depending on the temperament of my skin!

Now obviously, a luxurious facial performed by a top therapist in an indulgent tranquil beauty spa would be the ideal, but nowadays that is purely a luxury for most of us, so the chance to use a top of the range spa skincare brand, will just give you a little bit more of a spa at home feeling. 

During the summer months, skin can become slightly more oily (increase in sebum production from sweat glands due to warmer weather – notice I didn’t use term HOT weather, damn British “Summers”), and it’s important to gently exfoliate regularly so the oil doesn’t become stuck in the pores and lead to breakouts and blackheads. 
Thalgo Purity Exfoliator is a great gentle exfoliator to use once-twice a week in order to slough (love that word) away the dead skin cells and brighten and smoothen the complexion. 





I’ve been using this for a good month or so and my skin feels so fresh after use, there is an uplifting minty / menthol smell, which also gives a refreshing tingle and coolness to the skin afterwards, I will definitely be taking this on holiday, to ensure clear skin and a smooth tan!
Hairtrade.com sell this for £24.50.  Click here to buy!

My Latest in Beauty, Little Beauty Box







I blooming well love Latest In Beauty, not your average beauty box, there is no subscription charge and you can choose your samples!!

See my other latest in beauty post click here on the details, the charge has increased by 50p but thats still only £1.50!! for 3 samples of your choice (from a selection) of course. 

The options I chose this month are Tressemme Split Mend Shampoo, Split Mend Conditioner and Split Mend and Protect Leave In Treatment, 2 x 10ml sachets of each product, 2 x sachets of Elemental Herbology | Cell Food Serum and Dr Bragi Anti Age moisturiser 4x sachets!

I'm saving the samples to take on holiday with me (more space for shoes you see) but I've had a sneaky go at the Dr Bragi Moisturiser, it's quite strange as i'ts a clear gel like formula, but it is so hydrating so this is a definate keeps for my hols to rehydrate by parched skiN!

I really reccommend Latest in Beauty, the option above (3 samples of your choice for £1.50) is called the Little Beauty box, but they also do Luxury samples at great prices (can order individually) or they do themed boxes which are great value and contain great products such as Elemis, loccitane and Bastiste, but these are specially released so it's worth following Latest In Beauty on Twitter click here, or on Facebook, click here to be able to get details of their release, they tend to sell out quickly but sometimes they have a waiting list and they order more!


Enjoy!
