Elemis Peptide Thousand Flower Mask | Review


Ensuring that you get the right amount of beauty sleep is vital as your body repairs itself during those eight hours, allowing your skin to look it's best. Elemis has created a skincare range specifically for your circadian cycle which works whilst you sleep to reveal a brighter and smoother complextion, giving you the look of well rested skin. I have tried all the products from this range however one stood out to me inparticular, and that's the Thousand Flower Mask, so today I am going to be reviewing this product for you.

The Elemis Peptide Thousand Flower Mask is available at simpsonsbeautygroup.com and retails for £37. The mask comes in a tube which means it's easily dispenced and more hygienic as you're not dipping into a jar. I love the smooth purple gradiant packaging, it's sleek, modern yet practical. 

The mask's texture is unlike anything I've ever felt before. It contains brazillian black clay which allows for a velvety and mousse- like consistency. However, like traditional clay masks, this product does not dry out the skin. The clay works to purify and smooth the texture of the skin, whilst helping to reduce any excess oil. 

The key ingredients in this mask is what makes it unique. The peptide blend is designed to synchronize with your internal clock, releasing the essential ingredients to repair your skin. Lack of sleep disrupts skin's natural recovery process, leading to a dull, dehydrated complexion.This mask helps to restore essential moisture and antioxidants needed for a healthy-looking skin.

It contains nordic peat, developed over thousands of years, which is rich in minerals, vitamins and antioxidants to improve skin radiance and revitalise dull, lackluster skin. One fact to be aware of is that the nordic peat can stain, so always use a dark wash cloth to remove. 
Admittedly, you do look a little like you've been cleaning chimney's with this black coloured mask on, but those 15 minutes are worth it for the results that you get. 
After removing the mask, you will instantly feel a nice cooling sensation which leaves the skin feeling fresh and clean. 

I find this mask to be one of the most luxurious mask's I have ever tried. The floral fragrance is so calming and the skin appears brighter after just one use. 

This product is a beautiful skin treat and combined with the rest of the peptide range. it's an unbeatable skincare routine. 

With love,

Getting a Professional Facial | The Benefits


What are the benefits of getting a professional facial from a skincare expert?
If you're seeking clearer and healthier skin, recieving a facial and getting expert advice can make a dramatic difference to your skin. Here are my reasons why:

1. Skin Consultation
When browsing online or in a department store it can be difficult to know what products suit your skin needs, especially if you're unsure of what your skintype is. That is why I believe one of the most valuable components of a facial is the skin consultation.
Before your treatment begins your therapist will discuss with you your lifestyle, current routine and any skin concerns that you may have. Once they have cleansed the skin they are able to asses your skin type through looking at the apperance of the skin and feeling it's texture. This will help with the selection of products to allow them to create a personalised treatment that caters to your skins needs. They are also able to create a customised homecare routine to help you achieve the best results.

2. Prevention
If you're already happy with your skin, why get a facial?
The honest truth is that getting regular facial's can help to prevent future skin concerns that may appear- from the first signs of aging, dehydration and breakouts. Recieving a monthly facial can help you to maintain healthy skin, as it's always better to prevent rather than have to fix.

3. Exfoliation
Your skin needs to get rid of the waste that it accumulates on a regular basis, but when this is not done correctly it can lead to breakouts. That's why a skin detox is necessary. Exfoliation is a crucual part of the facial as it removes the top layer of dead skin cells which allows for a deeper penetration of the moisturising products. Exfoliation increases your skin's ability to absorb oils, serums and moisturiser effictively and leaves your skin feeling smooth and soft.

4. Increase Circulation
There is no doubt that when blood circulation slows, the skin's health is impaired. Aging leads to slow circulation which inevitably results in dull, tired looking skin. One important benefit of a facial is massage to the face. This process helps to increase blood flow bringing nutrients to the skin and it will encourage a youthful radiance and glow to the surface of the skin.

5. Relaxation
Aside from the various skin benefits facials offer, they are also extremly relaxing and provide an immediate stress release. Facials can include neck and shoulder, head and hand massages which allow you to feel ultimately pampered. The room has dim lighting, soft music and a warm bed, creating the ideal environment to completely unwind. An hour of relaxation is definetly something we all need after this stressful time and facial's have always been my go-to.

I hope you enjoyed this post about the benefit's of a professional facial. Performing facials as a Beauty Therapist is a pleasure, and that's why it's one of my favourite treatments to do. I love seeing the results that can be seen after just one treatment and working along side my client to create a bespoke skincare routine with our Elemis products. If you would like to try one of our Facial's or you think that you're in need of a pamper yourself, visit our webite www.simpsonsbeauty.com and get booked in ready for when we reopen.

With love,

Face Halo | First Impressions


Hey everyone, I'm back today with a first impressions post for you. 
I recently popped into Boots to have a sneaky look at their Christmas gifts and stumbled across the Face Halo. I'd never seen them in store before and had only heard about them through Chloe promoting her product on her Instagram.
This 'game-changing', echo friendly sponge is said to remove all your makeup by simply adding water and when hearing this my first thought was "How can a fluffy pad remove all makeup including stubborn mascara, with only water?". I wondered whether it was all a gimmick and something that had just been hyped about, so for that reason i had to give it a try.
So, how does it work? Adding water to the pad helps loosen your makeup allowing the 'halotech fibre strands' to reach deep into your pores and remove and trap makeup. This sponge is designed to be used gently on the skin meaning there is no need to rub or scrub however for heavier eye makeup you can hold the pad over the eyes for 10 seconds to break down the product. 
I paid £7 for one pad which I thought wasn't too bad since they claim you can get two hundred uses out of one product. They recommend that after every use you hand wash with soap and water and when cleaning your Face Halo in the washing machine you add it in with similar colours.

After a long day of working with a full face of makeup on, i arrived home and decided it was time to test out my Face Halo. After a few swipes I was pleasantly surprised! For some strange reason i was expecting the product not to work however it certainly removed my makeup and did it gently without irritating the skin. The pad soon went from a bright white to a shade of brown so i turned the pad over and used the clean side to test if there was any makeup left on my skin. The Face Halo did an extremely good job at removing makeup and works well as a quick fix in the evening, but according to the Face Halo there is no need to cleanse afterwards. As a beauty therapist i understand the importance of thoroughly cleansing the skin so i made sure to follow up with my facial wash afterwards. I feel that this product is a great alternative to the dreaded makeup wipes that millions of women still use but I would never use the Face Halo as my only cleanse. I think Chloe has created something quite revolutionary and i feel this product should be spoken about more. For those who find makeup wipes 'easier' than cleansing with a product and wash cloth, the Face Halo is a much better alternative. It's chemical free so wont dry the skin out as makeup wipes do and it would stop us throwing away billions of wipes a year (which take 100 years to decompose). 

My final thoughts?
I enjoyed using this product and will continue to use it as my first cleanse as it works wonders removing makeup. I think the Face Halo is ideal for travel or after a night out and I would absolutely recommend that if you haven't tried it that you give it a go. 

Are there any other products or tools that you would love to see me review? Let me know in the comments below. 

With love,

Elemis Superfood Oil | Product Review


The Elemis Superfood Facial Oil has been raved about for the longest time and since recently discovering Elemis products and doing some research I knew from my findings that this product in particular was one that I had to try. But the question is, is it truly worth the hype?

Facial oils are a must-have in my skincare routine especially this time of year as my skin can begin to feel much drier. The ingredients in this particular oil seemed impressive which was one of the reasons I was so eager to try it. It contains ingredients like flaxseed and broccoli which are known to seal in moisture within the skin. 
The one thing that stood out to me after first use was how glowy it made my skin feel after application and this has continued since using it. I prefer to use the oil during the evening however it can be used morning too. It applies smoothly, smells gorgeous and sinks into the skin quickly. 
If you're not using a facial oil in your routine and you're wondering whether to try one, now would be the time to do so with this oil. I always find that this time of year as it approaches Christmas my diet starts to plummet and that can take it's toll on my skin however this product is going to be my skin saviour. This product has 9 essential oils within it and it's packed with natural plant ingredients such as broccoli, cucumber oil, raddish, flax seed and macadamia oil therefore this oil gives my skin the luminosity and healthy dewy look that it needs. I have seen a huge improvement in the texture and appearance of my skin since using this product and can't wait to continue using and loving it. 

Is this oil suitable for you?

If your skin is feeling dull, lifeless, lacking nourishment and hydration you MUST try this product! You may be seeing the first signs of aging and your skin is lacking nutrients however with this oil your skin will be intoxicated with key omega and fatty acids to condition the skin. For those of you with oily skin do not feel that you need to shy away from this oil because of its hydrating properties as it can actually help to balance the oils in your skin so it's definitely worth a try. 

All in all, I am loving this oil and would 100% recommend it to YOU. I am now jumping on the hype of the Elemis Superfood Oil and cannot wait to try more products from this range. Are there any products in particular that you think I should try and review? Let me know in the comments below.

I hope you all have a great week!

Decleor Cica-Botanic Balm | Product Review




I have always heard great things about Decleor products but up until a few months ago I had never tried any of their products. For my first Decleor product I decided to try the Cica-Botanic Balm as I was intrigued by It's claims and benefits. 


100% Natural Cica-Botanic Balm Description:

"Cocoon skin in the soothing texture of Decleor Cica-Botanic Balm, a multi-purpose essential oil enriched balm that will soothe, repair and protect skin. ... The inclusion of geranium essential oil will cocoon your skin with its protective properties, strengthening your skin and repairing it.
100% of consumers found their skin was nourished and extreme dry patches were relieved
93% found their skin was less irritated and more comfortable."

The key ingredients in this balm are wonderful and this is to be expected by Decleor, an aromatherapy brand. Some of the main ingredients include Centella Asiactica which is known to reduce skin irritation, Eucalyptus Essential Oil for healing, Rosemary Essential Oil for hydration, Niaouli Essential Oil for soothing and Geranium Essential Oil for protection.

I have been using this product for a month, post cleanse and tone. This is a multi purpose product that you can not only use of the face but the body too. This balm can be used on dry skin almost anywhere. Including but not limited to face, lips, cuticles, dry heels, elbows and more. 
This balm is very oily and melts in your hands, I find the texture of the balm to be too much for day time so I've been sticking to using it in the evenings. When I wake up in the morning my skin feels soft and fully hydrated. A product like this, in my opinion is one that you have to stick with as It's definitely grown on me after seeing the improvement in the condition of my skin. Due to the ingredients in the balm it does have a strong scent and one that can be either loved or hated by the consumer. I personally enjoy the scent and find it very therapeutic and relaxing. When I apply the product I genuinely feel like I am having a spa treatment and to me it feels like a treat. 

Who is this product best for?

I believe that all skin types could use this product but it's especially ideal for those with sensitive skin who suffer with eczema or psoriasis. Testing new products when you have sensitive skin can be difficult as It's important to look for key ingredients designed for delicate complexions. This balm is nourishing and specifically designed for drier skin to soothe and hydrate. Due to it's lightweight texture I believe most skin types would suit this balm, perhaps more so on winter evenings. For those with post inflammatory pigmentation from acne it's fantastic at soothing redness, irritation and for healing the skin.  

Overall, I am thoroughly enjoying using this product and can feel an improvement in the texture and appearance of my skin. Have you tried any Decleor products? If so, what are your favourites? Let's chat in the comments below!

Relax & Unwind | My Pamper Routine


Hi Everyone, 

After a long week at work, every once in a while I like to use my Sunday off to have a bit of a pamper day. I love to unwind, relax and have a bit of 'me' time. If you haven't had a bit of 'me' time recently, I would definitely recommend giving it a go. 


To kick off my day of pampering I like to indulge in a delicious breakfast. Whether this be in bed or at the kitchen table, I love to enjoy a homemade waffle, pancakes, muffins, sausages or some fruit. Once I'm feeling well nourished and full I will head into the bathroom and light some scented candles to set the mood and play some of my favourite music. Whilst soaking in the bath I will take the time to perform my full pamper routine of exfoliation, shaving, hair mask, face mask and finish with a body oil or moisturiser. I have always loved the Soap & Glory bath range, especially the Sugar Crush Body Scrub and Body Wash so I will normally use these products during my pamper day. 
After my bath I will head into my beauty room to blow dry and straighten my hair and then I will begin my skincare routine.
If you would like to see an updated skincare routine, let me know in the comments below. I have a few stand out/favourite products at the moment that I wanted to share with you, one of those being the Pixi Glow Tonic. This product helps to tone, firm and tighten the skin whilst also removing dead skin cells for healthier looking skin. I am a huge fan of the Ordinary products and I adore their Vitamin C which is a gentle serum that targets uneven skin tone, exfoliates the skin and helps to brighten. I am also really enjoying using the Dr Jart Ceramidin range which are encapsulated with ceramides to keep skin well hydrated for long periods of time. 

The next step of my routine is to put on some comfy clothing which will either be pyjamas or leggings and a slouchy top. Once I'm feeling cosy and snuggled the next step is to give my nails a good seeing too. I do have a post on my 'At Home Manicure Routine' if you would like more detail on exactly what I do to maintain my nails. Essentially I will file and smooth the nail, cuticle work, apply a gel polish and finish with hand cream. I like to have matching hands and toes, and if I'm feeling fancy I may even delve into some nail art.  

Once I'm all pampered out I will usually get into bed and watch some Netflix or YouTube, with my boyfriend. I take movie snacks very seriously, so for me this is the best time of the day. I will gather as many sweet treats as I can and enjoy my time relaxing at home. 

That concludes my Pamper Routine, I would love to know what you do on your Pamper days at home. 
Thank you for reading everyone and happy pampering!

With Love,

New Additions | Skincare Haul



Hi Everyone, 

I recently went on a crazy skincare shopping spree and treated myself to some new products. I have been using these items for a few days now and I'm very much looking forward to performing my morning and evening routine, trying everything out and seeing what works well together. Today I thought that I would share with you the items that I bought, in case you were interested in trying any of them too. If you would like to hear my thoughts or see a review on any of these skincare products, please let me know. 


The Ordinary Vitamin C Suspension 23% + HA Spheres 2%


This product is a gentle serum formulated to visibly target uneven skin tone and signs of aging skin. This surface-smoothing serum delivers a concentrated blend of antioxidant-rich Vitamin C and hyaluronic acid to the skin, working to reverse and prevent signs of aging by visibly smoothing, brightening, and plumping. L-Ascorbic Acid is the strongest form of Vitamin C, exfoliates skin and works efficiently to slow the ageing process and boost skin health.
The Ordinary Azelic Acid


A lightweight cream-gel, formulated to target dull, marked skin. Dullness, uneven skin tone, acne scars, and lingering blemish marks are targeted by this high (10%) concentration of high-purity Azelaic Acid. The effective antibacterial ingredient gently exfoliates skin to prevent the build-up that clogs pores and causes both blemishes and dull skin.
Emma Hardie Moringa Cleansing Balm

This indulgent concoction dissolves dirt and make up while nourishing skin. It's brilliant for those who're prone to dullness - combatting congestion while boosting skin's dewiness - and when its massaged with your fingertips you'll stimulate the blood-flow to help 'feed' your cells and keep skin feeling 'plump' and looking luminous.


Alpha H Liquid Gold


Alpha-H Liquid Gold is a powerful resurfacing and firming treatment for diminishing wrinkles, pigmentation and sun damage. This multi action formula is enriched with silk proteins, licorice extract and Glycolic Acid. It works to jump start the skin's metabolism, tightening enlarged pores and giving a brighter, clearer complexion. Alpha-H Liquid Gold also makes an effective acne treatment when used in conjunction with other blemish fighting products from the Alpha H range.


Pixi Glow Tonic

This gorgeously glow-giving tonic has received endless praises thanks to its ability to dissolve dead skin, revealing the radiance beneath. Beautifully gentle and soothing, this is a definitive Cult classic which I have been using for years. If you haven't tried this product, its a must have in my opinion. 

Pixi Retinol Toner

This potent youth preserving tonic features a unique time-release Retinol to help rejuvenate the skin for a natural glow. Powerful antioxidants and botanicals replenish the skin for a smoother, softer appearance while soothing sensitive skin. 

The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%

This is a potent serum designed to reduce the appearance of skin blemishes, pores, and congestion by regulating sebum production. Using two of the most efficient blemish-battling ingredients in an ultra-high concentration formula, this light, fluid serum works to reduce both future breakouts and the appearance of existing blemishes. By controlling sebum production, pores remain clear and decongested from blemish-causing bacteria, ensuring clearer, calmer skin with prolonged use.


The Ordinary 100% Cold-Pressed Virgin Marula Oil

100% Cold Pressed Virgin Marula Oil is often described a luxurious treatment for the skin and hair. To be used as a daily support, apply generously over the affected area to hydrate, soften and restore a natural radiance.

The Ordinary Alpha Lipoic Acid 5%

A highly concentrated antioxidant formula, Alpha Lipoic Acid 5% is a powerful treatment for ageing skin. Working to improve the tone and texture of the skin with gentle exfoliation, it's an effective means to treat scars, pigmentation, and dullness, as well as lines and wrinkles. Apply sparingly 2-3 nights a week for a softer, smoother and more radiant complexion.

Dr Jart + Ceramidin Liquid

5-Cera Complex to deliver deep moisture that restores and repairs dry skin. This moisturising toner leaves the skin supple, moisturised and ready to absorb the next products in your regimen.

Dr Jart + Ceramidin Gel Cream

Dr.Jart's Ceramidin Gel Cream is encapsulated with ceramides to keep skin well hydrated for long periods of time. Ceramide enters into every layer of the skin, restores lipids, and supports the skins barrier function to prevent moisture loss. Meanwhile, phytoncide and aloe vera juice soothe and hydrate the skin's surface. Lightweight and cooling, its ideal for soothing damaged and irritated skin from UV rays or for sensitive skin. 


Nip & Fab Glycolic Night Pads Extreme

A concentrated acid blend of AHAs and BHAs help to improve the skin's natural exfoliation process and decongest dull skin with one pre-soaked pad. Pores appear more refined and complexion brighter to rival results of an acid peel.


Thank you for reading this post and I hope that you have discovered a new product to add to your skincare routine. I am thoroughly enjoying trying out these products and am happy to write an update after further use. I hope you all have a great bank holiday weekend!

With love,

Tips for Healthy, Glowing Skin


Improve Circulation

Keeping the blood flowing promotes lymphatic drainage which helps to remove waste and toxins, leaving your skin glowing. Every evening when I apply my facial oil I take the time to massage my skin to improve circulation. This can also be done by using a facial brush or exfoliating. 

Exfoliation
Exfoliation is the removal of dead skin cells on the outermost layer of your skin, known as the stratum corneum. It is one of the most important parts of your skincare routine as it not only helps with many skin problems but it can also increase blood circulation and allow you to achieve a healthy and glowing skin. Exfoliating once a week can increase cell turnover to improve the health of your skin and even out your skin tone. It also stimulates collagen to give your skin strength and elasticity. It allows deeper absorption of the following products you use- serums and moisturisers will be able to reach those new cells rather than sitting 'on top' of your skin. 

Beauty Sleep

One of the most known skin care tips out there is ensuring you get enough sleep, but it truly matters. While you're sleeping your skin cells repair and renew so it is important that you not only sleep for eight hours a night, but that it is quality sleep. The position you sleep it can also take an effect on your skin. Sleeping on your stomach can scrunch your face and this can then tighten your facial muscles, allow the skin to sag and cut off circulation. It has been said that using a silk pillowcase can help your skin stay healthy and smooth and can help reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles.


Sun Protection

Especially this time of year, we all enjoy some time in the sun however it is important to do so safely and protect our skin from sun damage. The sunshine always puts everyone in a great mood and for a short amount of time, makes us look good too. However, too much sun exposure can cause premature wrinkles and age spots on our face. 
Choosing a high quality sun cream is vital and some are better than others. You need to search for one that protects against both UVA and UVB light, and ensure that it has a five star rating. Certify that you are applying the cream correctly and allow for it to be applied half an hour before sun exposure so that it can be fully absorbed. You also need to reapply sun cream every few hours, especially if you are swimming or sweating (this goes for sun creams that claim to be water resistant too). 
On my previous holiday I took precautions to make certain that my face was kept out of sunlight, where possible. For example, when sat in the sun I would always cover my face with a towel and to protect my head I wore a wide-brimmed hat as I was kept in the shade and it made sure my scalp, ears and nose would not burn.  

Minimize makeup


For many years I loved nothing but to spend hours applying makeup. Over time I have started to wear less makeup and by doing that I have learnt and witnessed the effects that has had on my skin. A lot of makeup products include chemicals that will only clog the pores leading to breakouts. Ensure that you check the labels of makeup products for the word 'comedogenic' which means it has been scientifically tested not to block pores.There are in fact safer alternatives for those who cant bare not to wear makeup. I have minimized the amount of makeup I wear or, leave it for special occasions. I know my skin is thanking me for it. 

Healthy Eating

When I think about food and my skin a certain saying comes to mind- 'You are what you eat'. Beautiful and radiant skin truly starts from within, so keeping an eye on your diet could do wonders for your complexion. This includes, getting your 5-a-day, receiving enough Vitamins, drinking plenty of water to hydrate the skin and avoiding the cravings. It's important to remember that a miracle isn't going to happen overnight and it takes time for your skin to resurface. For persistent skin conditions you can visit Body TLC in Lincoln, talk to your GP or consider seeing a dermatologist.

Like millions of other people, I absolutely adore chocolate. Naturally you would think that by cutting out chocolate your skin would improve, right? Wrong. There are plenty of reasons to continue eating chocolate due to the skin benefits that it actually has. Cocoa has both antioxidant (flavanols) and anti-inflammatory properties, this will hydrate your skin and improve circulation. Flavanols help the skin to reflect UV light which in turn reduces the appearance of skin damage and contributes to reducing collagen breakdown. So, you can have the best of both worlds- continuing to indulge on a few squares of chocolate a day and also maintaining that glowing skin. 



I hope you all enjoyed reading just a few of my personal favourite tips for achieving beautiful skin. Please share below any tips I haven't mentioned that you love in the comments below.

Isle of Paradise Self Tanning Drops | Review





As Summer approaches us, there is nothing that gives you confidence like a glowing tan. I have tried every method of tanning such as self tan products like; lotions, gradual tanners, mousses and sprays. I've also had regular sprays tans and used sun beds however no-matter-what the tan never seems to work or stay in place on my face. 
After struggling for years to find the perfect facial tanning product I discovered the Isle of Paradise drops. These have been raved about on social media, so I decided to purchase the product and try it myself. I bought mine in store from Boots for £19.95, and on first impressions I like the overall appearance of the bottle and the price isn't too extortionate. The product is dispensed with a pipette and you simply add 1-12 drops (depending on the darkness you wish for) into your normal moisturiser and apply to the face. 

Isle of Paradise are a vegan, organic and cruelty free brand which I know appeals to a lot of people. The tans are formulated using ingredients such as chia seeds, avocado and coconut oils which makes them kind to the skin unlike other tans which can personally sink into my pores and break me out. They use colour correcting technology which is something I’ve never seen before in a tanning product. I use the Purple bottle for a dark tan however you can also get Peach for a light tan and Green for a medium colour. There's a flowery scent to this, which makes a pleasant difference to the usual biscuit smell.


Before my first application I made sure to exfoliate my face to buff away any dead skin and allow for a smooth application. I decided that I wanted to apply the product in the morning so that I could watch the process and see how quickly it develops. Although, the bottle does suggest to apply it before bed and allow it to develop overnight. I applied 8 drops into my Liz Earle moisturiser and mixed it together in my hands before applying directly onto my face. I know people like colour guides, which is something this product doesnt have but once you get used to it, it’s easy. This particular moisturiser needs a bit of help absorbing and rubbing into the skin so I made sure to be careful as i didn't want to risk getting streaks, especially on the neck. Lastly, I thoroughly washed my hands to avoid orange fingers. 

Throughout the day I continuously asked my boyfriend for his opinion on my facial tan and I gladly got his approval. After about 9 hours I washed my face and found myself not overly satisfied with the colour. So, when applying my night cream I decided to add a couple more drops (which took me up to 10 drops). In the morning I woke up to find the most dark and glowing tan of my life, so I just washed my face, applied some mascara and headed off to work. I will happily admit that I have never gotten so many compliments on my tan, almost every customer asked me if I had been on holiday. I take that as a compliment! Approximately 5 days later I found the tan to have faded completely which I believe to be a great amount of time considering the skincare products that I am constantly applying to my face.Before my next application I will follow the same steps by exfoliating beforehand just to ensure every trace of the tan is removed.

Overall, I am extremely happy with this purchase and recommend any fellow-facial-tanning-product-addicts give this one a go! 


Have you tried the Isle of Paradise drops? Let me know in the comments and share your opinion. Thanks for reading!
