When it comes to lotions and potions... like all girls, I am a sucker for anything that promises to make me feel and look better! It's only been in the past few years... as a result of the fine lines that are starting to appear and don't seem to fade ahhhh.... that I am more concerned about where I buy my products from and equally important, where these brands source their ingredients from.
I immediately fell in love with Neal's Yard Remedies, where I discovered that the brand is based on the premise that health and beauty should be more natural and less synthetic. Using only the finest ingredients, their products are sourced from organic farms and are a more natural way to improve health and well being.
You only have to walk past the doors of one of their shops to be hit by an instant delicious soothing smell... whether from their heavenly room diffusers or burning candles whose scents are matched in an array of aromatherapy oils, room sprays, body lotions, hair care and gift sets.
High on the fumes of essentials oils, I bought the 'Balancing Reed Room Diffuser', which transformed my bathroom into my very own spa... I loved it! However the one criticism I had was that it only lasted approximately three weeks.
I also bought the 'Soothing Bath Oil' with hints of lavender, geranium and bergamot, which is meant to help relax body and mind... and am pleased to say, it lived up to its name! It's quite a thick texture, almost syrupy, so really feels like you are treating your skin.
And finally... I recently discovered that they offer a range of therapies ranging from acupressure and ayurveda, to craniosacral therapy... not quite sure what that involves yet... but I am desperate to try one of the therapies as I am a big advocate of holistic treatments.
It's very refreshing to be able to buy products from a brand whose philosophy I truly believe in and so would recommend visiting one of the stores if you haven't already done so.
