Urban Veda Radiance Body Wash

I met Urban Veda at this years CEW Demonstration evening, way back in February, and loved the brand from the start. It was all those months ago my obsession with this product started, it became my post Saturday morning gym shower routine. Quick quote about the brand in case you haven't come across it before  "The urbanveda ranges are designed to be suited to different skin care types which in the principles of Ayurvedic medicine are associated with ‘doshas’. This is the Ayurvedic term to describe the physical and emotional tendencies in our mind and body" Find out more about Urban Veda HERE.

The Radiance Body Wash is essential to my end of work week, hello weekend routine. A perfect blend of relaxing scents and ingredients it cleanses away the stress. The soft floral undertones and the soothing gel formula make this perfect blend of shower time goodness.Being soap free means it doesn't strip the skin of it's protective oils, damaging the skin but rather cleanses gently using all natural ingredients. This has become a much loved edition to my bathroom cupboard.

Elemis Pro-Radiance Illuminating Flash Balm

Now, I have to say that i'm always slightly cautions when products use the word "illuminating" - simply because it usually implies im signing myself up for a dose of shiny face. I have loved Elemis products for a long time, i use them sparingly because i find sometimes they are slightly to rich for my skin. 

I am a BIG fan of this product, especially during those dull winter days, when skin can take a dramatic turn down dull n dreary road, this is a real pick me up the slight clean linen creamy scent lingers but is not over powering. 

On those good skin days can be worn without make up, When heading to the gym this adds to my "just worked out glow"  or used instead of your moisturiser (however don't forget your daily SPF) or on top moisturiser as a primer, I have also mixed it in with my foundation for a more dewy look. This doesn't leave my skin overly shiney or make my skin feel suffocated, which is also the case with many illumiating products. As an added bonus, it is also free from Parabens and other nasties, for all the ingredient conscious product users. 

Priced at £32 its at the top end of my budget, but a little goes a long way and as a winter investment, its definitely a must have on bad skin days!
