Beautifinous.

Hey guys! One of my favourite life tips is as follows: if you perfect the base, the rest will follow. The product that I'll be reviewing today is designed to help with exactly that and it will allow me to delve a little deeper into the meaning behind the advice.

The Skin + Beyond supplement drink is not your regular beauty drink. With the clue being in the name, Skin + Beyond does indeed go beyond helping you to achieve better skin by helping with gut health, bone health, joint health, heart health and sports performance and recovery. It is a 100% natural, all in one drink, providing a blend of patented pomegranate extract, niacinamide and glycine to balance out the gut, increase collagen synthesis and to re-energise the skin cells, overall helping you to achieve smoother and firmer skin. It also includes POMx which acts as a prebiotic and antioxidant. I'll also add the preface here that I am, of course, not a doctor and therefore I shall keep the science side to the professionals and just discuss the product from the perspective of a customer, which I am. For more of the science behind the ingredients in the drink, check out the Skin + Beyond website as it goes pretty in depth and is an interesting read!

So how does this tie in with the advice that I mentioned at the start of the post? Well, the reason that it's my favourite tip is because it can be relevant in a whole range of scenarios. Focusing in more specifically onto the beauty aspect to keep things on topic, it describes perfecting the base because then everything else will just follow along. In this instance, by feeling good on the inside, everything else will follow on the outside. Glowing skin will follow when you look after yourself on the inside. Staying hydrated and drinking supplement drinks such as Skin + Beyond to look after yourself will in turn bring the results that you want on the outside. I actually gave this exact advice in a beauty scenario when contacted by Bondi Sands for a feature that they were working on a few years ago too (and if you'd like to go to a deeper level, I implore you to try attributing it to other aspects of life also!).

Hey guys! It's been a while and I'd like to start by apologising for that. Life things have been life things and I've needed to put my attention elsewhere. I’m back today though with a special post to share with you all!

Mother’s Day is coming up fast here in the UK (it's this Sunday, March 27th if you've forgotten all about it!), and if you’re left looking for a last minute gift to spoil your mum or if you’re just stumped for ideas, I have a Mother’s Day gift idea for you today courtesy of Nourish Skincare; the Gift of Sleep. The Gift of Sleep is a box set containing three bed time products to gift your mum a pampering evening ritual that helps both her skin and her sleep quality. It features the Nourish Sleepy Pillow Mist, Relax Hydrating Peptide Serum and Probiotic Multi-Mineral Anti-Ageing Face Mask.

The Nourish London Sleepy Pillow Mist contains a relaxing blend of 9 essential oils alongside magnesium-rich Epsom salts. Lavender, Rose, Frankincense, Geranium, Patchouli, Bergamot and Sweet Orange alongside the stress-relieving Epsom salts sprayed on your pillow each evening help you to calm down and relax to fall asleep easier.

The Nourish Relax Hydrating Peptide Serum is designed to hydrate and soothe sensitive skin that is prone to stress and allergens. It contains hyaluronic acid to moisturise and tripeptides to boost collagen production. Additionally, the Relax Hydrating Peptide Serum also contains lavender, bisabolol and ginger to ease irritation. 

The Nourish Probiotic Multi-Mineral Anti-Ageing Face Mask is a product that I have reviewed on the blog previously so I won't be reviewing it during this post, but you can see my review of it here. 

All of the products in the box are alcohol free, cruelty free and 100% vegan.

Nourish is definitely one of my favourite brands right now. I’ve loved every product that I’ve ever tried from them and they’re a lovely company to work with too. Also being a mother, I can confirm that I have loved and appreciated receiving this box set as a gift from Nourish just in time for Mother's Day! Therefore, I am super excited to jump right into this review.

I'm going to discuss each product one by one, starting with the Sleepy Pillow Mist, then the Relax Hydrating Peptide Serum and finally the Probiotic Multi-Mineral Anti-Ageing Face Mask. 

Dubbed a "skincare hero" and "radiance in a bottle", the Balance Me Radiance Face Oil is a 100% natural, award-winning facial oil that is designed to rescue dull, lifeless, dehydrated skin and provide it with a rejuvenated, radiant glow. If that wasn't enough, it also helps to reduce redness and the visible signs of ageing and scarring as well as evening out the skin tone.
