My Natural Beauty Favourites

Hello and kisses from California! I am so excited to share with you that I am now working with Lookfantastic as one of their Beauty Ambassadors! We have worked together in the past so I am now thrilled to make it official and I am very happy to be part of such a fantastic team. Lookfantastic is the original online British beauty boutique and it’s my go-to website for all my beauty needs.

One thing I love about Lookfantastic is that they stock all my favourite natural and organic beauty products and as I am currently in California it seems fitting to share with you my jet set natural beauty favourites for when I am in the sun. All these products are an essential part of my beauty routine in LA and I would definitely give them a go if I were you! Let’s get started with the products that I can’t travel without…

1. 

   bareMinerals Complexion Rescue

   I know that there has been a buzz around this bareMinerals product. I had heard so many great reviews and I am so glad I started using it while i’m in LA. It is perfect for the sunshine, as it hydrates your skin while still giving it that coverage, its not too heavy either which is great (there is nothing worse than having caked on makeup in the sun). It’s so easy to apply, simply use your fingertips to build your desired coverage.

   What I love about bareMinerals is that they use naturally derived minerals in all their products, so not only are they good for your skin but also for the environment. This hydrating cream also protects your skin from environment stress and damage, even from the sun, so it is perfect for sunbathing on the beach without having to worry that you haven’t got enough coverage on your face. I wear it most days here in LA and it has become a natural beauty essential, wherever I go!

   Korres Jasmine Lip Butter

   Another natural beauty favourite is my Korres Lip Butter. Whenever I go on holiday and the sun is out, my lips become very dehydrated so I always need a lip product at hand. This one is my current favourite (I can’t tell you how many times I apply it every day!), with it being the perfect mini beauty treat to pop in my bag.

   The formula is a mixture of Shea Butter and Rice Wax, so all natural and it really offers a deep hydration to your lips while boosting them with a bit of colour. The shade ‘Jasmine’ is my favourite, it is a soft pink, giving my lips a healthy glow and a slight tint which is perfect for my casual daytime makeup. Did you know that apparently using Jasmine Essential Oil regularly can help boost your self-confidence too? Make sure you check out the other shades that Lookfantastic offer as well though, they are all lovely.

   bareMinerals Mineral Veil

   I know I have already raved about one bareMinerals product but I just need to introduce to you another one… I have used Mineral Veil for a very long time, its a trusty saviour in my makeup bag. If I am ever suffering from shiny skin, this sorts me out! I don’t think I have ever been on holiday without it; I can’t imagine being in sunny country where I am so hot and shiny without this in my handbag.

   It is a sheer powder so it is very easy to apply. It morphs into your skin and reduces your pores so you have the perfect complexion. I have used several finishing powders over the years and I have never found one that is as effective but light as this one. Like the Hydrating Cream, this product also provides a non chemical block against the sun.

   Balance Me Cleanse & Smooth Face Balm

   Now I am going to introduce a brand to you which I haven’t written about before; Balance Me. It is a British skincare brand that delivers results naturally. They do this by using innovative natural ingredients, luscious textures and exquisite aromas.

   What I love about this balm is that it contains tiny pieces of oatmeal which polish your skin and buffs away all the dead skin cells, while the balm leaves your skin brighter and cleaner. The combination of the two is beautiful, it always leaves me feeling fresh and radiant. For the best results I would recommend using a muslin cloth to wash it all off.

   Also, Lookfantastic sell the most amazing travel sets of Balance Me products. I always take them on a plane as part of my in flight essentials!

5. 

   Aveda After Sun Hair & Body Cleanser

   Last but not least is my favourite Aveda Cleanser. Aveda do gorgeous natural products that work perfectly wherever I am in the world. Aveda’s hair and body cleanser removes salt, product and chlorine build up, which is exactly what my hair needs when I am on holiday. It has a refreshing tropical scent with natural, organic Neroli and Ylang Ylang, while containing Green Tea, Sunflower and Coconut oils to help maintain a good moisture balance.

   I always pair it with this Aveda hair masque for gorgeous results. This masque helps repair sun damaged hair and when I am on holiday or in the sun for a long period of time, my hair really needs this treatment.
