June saw World Ocean Month and with that came a package from REN Skincare full of their wonderful Atlantic Kelp collection. The collection features body washes, scrubs, creams and body oils - my favourite! The Atlantic Kelp body care collection is formulated with ocean-sourced ingredients and then poured into 20% ocean-reclaimed plastic packaging. 

So far REN Skincare has saved 1.5 tons of plastic removed from oceans as well as 4000kg of litter collected from our waterways with the Surfrider Foundation. Cool right?

By working together, we can protect and restore our oceans for future generations to enjoy but while we work at that, let's have a closer look at the products available within the Atlantic Kelp product line.

Bold lipstick is my thing, it has always been my thing - hopefully, the Tik Tok reference is there somewhere either way L'Oréal have a new variation of their Color Riche lipsticks and as a matte finish loving gal, these are perfect for me. 

I've been trying four of the shades over the last couple of months and so it was time to share some thoughts, especially as one, in particular, has quickly become my most reached for shade. 

Color Riche is now slimmer, more longwear, more hydrating and more matte - 16 hours of wear time with hyaluronic acid and a caring formula that leaves lips feeling incredibly moisturised throughout wear time.

Summer sees my makeup routine become quite simplified - foundation is changed for something lighter which I can build upon should I want to, an easy highlighter is thrown in for some added glow and I keep my eyes easy with just brows and mascara. 

There are five products in particular that have fast become my summer staples and so here is everything you need to know along with performance, prices and why you need them too. 

Croma Skincare - Here's what you need to know

Having two young children has taken its toll on my eye area recently, so I've been searching for the 'one' to help me combat fine lines and puffy eyes. I recently discovered Crome-Pharma, an Austrian family wonder company based in Leobendorf, north of Vienna. The company specialises in the industrial production of hyaluronic acid syringes and is one of the world's leading experts in this field.

Since selling the ophthalmic and orthopaedic business in 2014, Croma now solely focuses on minimally aesthetic medicine offering a wide range of state-of-the-art products in minimally invasive aesthetic medicine as well as skincare which is where I come in. 

I've been using one of the products over the last eight weeks - Farewell Puffy Eyes and I've been so intrigued to see how it would perform especially as it has a pretty hefty price tag. 

The intoxicating story of Lumière Dorée by Miller Harris

Miller Harris has been on my radar for a while but it was a brand I just hadn't got to yet - I'm a perfume junkie and don't have a signature scent as such as I tend to change what I wear each season but this has found it's way in easily. 

If you're unfamiliar with the fragrance brand, Miller Harris is a couture British fragrance house, founded in 2000, with a spirit of bespoke fragrance creation at it's heart. The brand is committed to using beautiful natural materials whilst pushing creative boundaries.

The brand was founded by ground-breaking perfumer Lyn Harris - she worked with world-renowned fragrance house Robertet in France in her early career, and was one of the first female master perfumers. The aesthetic of her perfumes was inspired by stories, memories and the very finest natural ingredients which translates beautifully into each of her fragrances.

(Features press samples & affiliate links - see disclaimer)

Over the last few months, I've been dabbling in a few new skincare brands one of which is Skin Proud - a skincare brand that feels like a community in everything they do. Diversity and inclusion are at the core of everything they do making sure everyone is welcome, empowered and represented within the beauty industry. Skin Proud is committed to showcasing all skin tones and types, genders, body sizes, and ethnicities in all imagery advertising their products - something that is long overdue within the promotion of beauty products. 

It's refreshing to see and that is just the start. Skin Proud is all about championing the skin you are in - imperfections and all. The products have been developed with you in mind - they're easy to use, 100% vegan and the packaging makes your bathroom shelf look pretty fabulous too. 

I've tried a few products, but three, in particular, stood out to me - want to hear more?
