The Beauty Kitchen Wonder Balm




It’ll come as no surprise to my regular readers to hear that I love a multi-tasking product.

  Perfect for busy people and often a good way to save some pennies, I am always on the lookout for products that have more than one use.
 
One such product that I recently discovered that fulfils this need of mine is called ‘Wonder Balm’ and is from a brand called The Beauty Kitchen.
 

 
These super cute balms all contain beeswax, cocoa butter and Abyssinian Oil to offer super nourishing and moisturising properties and are also all paraben and sulphate free.

 (Abyssinian Oil by the way is a turbo charged version of argan oil, is rich in omega 3 and is light, non greasy and super hydrating. just letting you know because I didn’t know what it was either!)
 
Available in six different scents, they contain no synthetic fragrances and yet manage to smell utterly gorgeous.
  


I tested out three of the six scents and have to say, loved all of them!
 
Love Me smells like Christmas with warm cinnamon leaf and comforting patchouli.
 
Spoil Me contains a high grade essential oil blend of cedarwood, orange sweet and aniseed and reminds me vaguely of Black Jack sweets!
 
Chill Me, as the name suggests is a relaxing smelling balm and includes lavender, eucalyptus and clary sage.




 These compact, recycled tins of joy are perfect for popping in your handbag and are great for sore chapped lips, dry cuticles or applying to really dry areas on your body such as knees and elbows.
 
To be honest, the Chill Me balm has such a beautiful scent I’ve even used it to massage into my temples to aid sleep at night!
 
The best bit is each little tin costs just £2.99 or you can buy the whole collection from The Beauty Kitchen for just £12!

Rose & Co



If you love beautiful, kitsch, vintage-esq brands and products then you're going to love Rose & Co!

Available from their quaint Victorian store in Yorkshire, online or from select retailers such as Harrods, Fortnum & Mason and house of Fraser, their collection of beautiful beauty products are to die for!




Packaged in gorgeous, vintage inspired bottles and jars, I was lucky enough to try two products from their new range as well as their world renowned beauty balm, the Rose Petal Salve.

No.84 is their new signature bath and body range which is named after Rose & Co's world famous Apothecary, No.84 Main Street, Haworth.




This range is fragranced with an aromatic, modern -Rose composition with elements of tea, violet, jasmine and iris enriched win cedar, amber and musk.

It is a soft, powdery fragrance which is used across the collection, including their Hand Cream (£5) and their Cupcake Soap (£5).

The hand cream is a lovely texture and consistency, made with Shea butter and enriched with Vitamin E it leaves your hands feeling soft and smelling lovely.




I actually can't comment on the soap because as far as I'm concerned, it's just too pretty to use! I mean, look at it!

I love the smell of roses and utterly ADORE their Rose Petal Salve (£5)!

This pretty pink salve contains vitamin A, natural emollients, beeswax and sweet almond oil which work together to deliver a nourishing treat to dry skin and offers healing and antibacterial properties.

Pretty great hey!




Delicately scented with sweet smelling Rose oil, this miracle pink balm is so much more than just a lip balm. In fact, it is a real multi tasking skin saviour with around 20 different ways to use it, including;
 
Soothes chapped lips and seals in moisture

Glosses lips with a light pink sheen

Cheekbone enhancer

Softens cuticles



Rescues and treats dry patches and rough skin,
including knuckles, elbows and hands

Provides a barrier to skin for rashes

Provides a barrier against nail varnish bleeding onto skin and cuticles

Tames eyebrows

All these uses for just £5 a jar is pretty special!

You can get your hands on Rose & Co products now online or from selected independent retailers.
