The Rabot Estate on the paradise Island of St Lucia have been farming cacao since 1745 and it is here that cult UK chocolate brand Hotel Chocolat was born.

From the estates humble beginnings they now boast a boutique hotel, London restaurant and a fab new beauty range which have all been inspired by their love of the island, the people and the plants that flourish there.

In 2017 Hotel Chocolat's Angus Thirlwell invited modern apothecary and ex-Lush director Andrew Gerrie to explore the Rabot Estate with a view to imagining what the essence of their estate would look like, bottled. 

They experimented with the rich collection of flora on the estate to craft a range of natural and nourishing cacao-rich beauty products known today as Rabot 1745.

Evolve Beauty Chocolate Skin Heaven Beauty Giftset

 Bit of a chocoaholic or know someone who is (your mum perhaps, hint hint March 31^st!) but not such a fan of the calories that go hand in hand with it then take a look at this beautiful gift set from Evolve Beauty.

For those of you unfamiliar with the brand, Evolve Beauty products are handmade In the UK in small batches to ensure the freshness of the precious antioxidants in the natural oils, butters and extracts that they use. 

Vegan, cruelty free and eco-friendly I’m all for supporting British businesses and this is a great one.

Take a look at this delectable Chocolate Skin Heaven Beauty Giftset (£26).

Presented beautifully in a little gift bag you’ll find their Radiant Glow Mask and Daily Renew Face Cream; everything you need to pamper and treat your skin to some serious TLC while indulging In a little calorie-free chocolate heaven!

I am head over heels in love with their Radiant Glow Mask.

This super rich, organic mask has been blended with raw cacao powder which is naturally high in antioxidants to help protect the skin and improve hydration, as well as smelling absolutely good enough to eat!

Clay revitalises and deeply purifies while coconut shell powder gently buffs away dead skin cells revealing healthy, smooth and bright skin.

High in magnesium, vitamin C and Omega 6, these skincare gems help to promote cell repair and rejuvenation while Sweet Almond Oil (rich in Vitamin A, E and B’s) moisturise and nourish.

The scrub contains a sugar extract which emulsifies the mask into a cream milk on contact with warm water, meaning it rinses off easily and gently.

It says it has been fragranced with Organic Vanilla oil but to be perfectly honest all I can smell is chocolate and that is perfect!

Thick and rich yet easy to apply (best to be left to work for around 5 mins before removing) and soft enough to massage into your skin without causing discomfort it is the most beautiful exfoliator-mask which is suitable for even my sensitive skin. 

Another gorgeous item which compliments the mask to perfection is the Daily Renew Facial Cream.

Created with normal to dry skin in mind it is a rich, decadent and delightful cream which possesses the most beautiful hint of vanilla and coconut fragrance. 

It features a blend of pure organic oils but Argan oil is definitely the stand out ingredient in this cream. Rich in Vitamin E and fatty acids, it helps to repair damaged skin and its antioxidant qualities help to improve elasticity, leaving your skin feeling soft, plump and nourished.

Another key component is Hyaluronic Acid- which by the way can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water making it a very effective component in moisturisers. 

Hyaluronic acid helps to reduce wrinkles and improved skin tone and this cream is formulated with a lower molecular Hylauronic Acid weight allowing it to penetrated deeper into the layers of your skin, providing more effective hydrating properties while increases the production of collagen.

As an oily/combo skinned gal this cream is slightly too rich for my skin but my goodness it is gorgeous. 

Absorbed quickly it leaves your skin smelling like a tropical paradise!

So, if you face treating your Mum this Mother’s Day or just deserve a pamper yourself you can get hold of the Evolve Beauty Chocolate Skin Heaven Beauty Gift Set from their website where it costs a very reasonable £26.
