Lovea Pink Clay Face Mask



Are you looking for a new face mask? Do you suffer from sensitive skin? Are you a fan of natural products? If you answered 'yes' to any of those questions, then this blog post may be of interest to you.

Lovea are a brand I have featured on my blog several times before. As you may know, I have reviewed some of their products on behalf of MyPure; an online store that stock all natural beauty products, which I definitely recommend you check out! This Month my skin has been suffering a little and was in need of some TLC, so a pamper evening was long overdue. I love a face mask and usually apply a face mask once or twice a fortnight when I am having a bad skin day or if I am having a relaxing evening. I opted for Lovea's Pink Clay Mask. Lovea state that clay has been 'used for centuries to purify the skin and remove toxins. Under a microscope clay looks like a giant porous sponge, it attracts toxins and then binds them deep inside the clay ready to be rinsed off the skin'. Lovea stock three different clay masks to suit different skin types, I opted for the pink clay mask as this is for sensitive skin. 

To use, you simply apply a layer onto your face and then remove five minutes later with water. The mask does dry quickly and smells pleasant. The results were that the face mask made my face feel smooth and clear, as well as feeling quite refreshed. I have used this face mask around four to five times now and so far so good! I would probably purchase this in the future as I think it is a reasonably priced product; considering Lovea is natural beauty brand, I think that is pretty good.

The Lovea Pink Clay Mask is available to buy online at MyPure and is currently priced at £6.99.

Sun Aftercare with Lovea



As it almost the middle of the Year, a lot of us are jetting off on Holiday soon in hope of a lot of fun, adventure and relaxation. Protecting our skin in the sun has always been an important part of a holiday for me;  it is important to be safe in the sun, which is why I always take plenty of protectant sunscreen with me, and opt for body and hair products with a high SPF. Something I tend to forget is after care - after sun lotions are really important if you have been sunburnt as they help to cool and soothe skin, as well as helping to prolong a suntan.

I suffer from sensitive skin, meaning that sometimes I can't use certain body or skin care products because they irritate my skin. My Sister also suffers with sensitive skin and eczema, so she has to be
extra careful with the  products she uses too. This is why both of us opt for products with minimal artificial ingredients, as these ingredients often irritate our skin. This is why I decided to test out the Lovea Natural Aftersun Lotion, in hope that it will soothe and calm the skin without irritating it further.

The Lovea Natural Aftersun Lotion has a thick consistency and is not greasy or sticky when applying to the body. It absorbs quite easily into the skin.
The scent of the product is very subtle but is pleasant, and smells of...
I would recommend this aftersun lotion to anyone that may have sensitive skin and struggles to find suncare products that work well for them. I would also recommend Lovea's Kids Natural Sunspray SPF 50 which I reviewed in full last Year here.

You can purchase the Lovea Natural Aftersun Lotion online at My Pure. It retails at £9.99 for 125ml of product.

Lovea Pomegranate Shampoo





Lovea Pomegranate Shampoo

Are you a fan of natural hair care products? Keep reading to hear more about natural beauty brand Lovea and a review of their pomegranate shampoo!

Lovea has become a firm favourite brand of mine for a while now. All of Lovea's products are made with natural ingredients, and are certified organic. Natural beauty products have become my preferred choice when it comes to choosing my skin, hair and body care products; mainly because I suffer from sensitive skin and I find that products which contain natural ingredients do not cause a reaction to my already sensitive skin.

I was looking forward to using this shampoo, as strange as that sounds, but as pomegranate is one of my favourite scents, I really wanted to see what it smelt like. I found that it smelt great and exactly like pomegranate - very fresh and fruity.
The shampoo itself is actually aimed for those with coloured hair, which is half of the reason why I picked this one from their other line of shampoos. My hair is quite damaged due to dying it, so I was hoping to see good results from using the shampoo.
I feel that the shampoo is a decent product - it does the job. It washes my hair really well, smells great and not synthetic, and also leaves my hair feeling soft and nourished. I also found that it helped to hold my hair colour well, and my hair colour hasn't faded quite as much as it normally would with other shampoo that I usually use. I think Lovea as a brand is really reasonably priced; you sometimes find that natural hair products are quite high in price but I find Lovea very affordable and would recommend them as a brand to anyone looking for natural beauty products without the heavy price tag.


The shampoo retails at £5.99 - and is available online from MyPure.

Lovea Coconut Shower Gel Review







Lovea are a great, purse-friendly, natural brand which I have come to really enjoy in the past few Months. I have tried a handful of their products in the past and they have all been good quality and done the job. Lovea is the on the lower end of the scale when it comes to prices for natural beauty products, which is fantastic. I love natural beauty products but they can be quite pricey, so it is nice to see a brand being able to sell their natural products for a reasonable amount. 

I love a good shower gel, and really enjoy the scent of coconut. I often find that coconut scented beauty products smell quite synthetic, I'm not sure why, but a lot of products I have tried just don't smell like coconut at all. I had heard good things and great reviews about the Lovea Coconut Shower Gel and was hoping it wouldn't smell synthetic either. The reviews were right! The shower gel smells like coconut oil and not too synthetic. This is a great winner if you love your sweet scents, but if you are not a fan of sweet and strong shower gels this may not be for you.
The shower gel worked great for my skin, which is often very sensitive and I sometimes comes out in rashes from certain ingredients in your average body products. The Lovea shower gel is perfect to use if you have senstive skin as it contains organic aloe vera. The shower gel lathers well and a little goes a long way, so the big bottle will last you a while.  After use, my skin feels soft and cleansed. I would definitely recommend Lovea shower gel to anyone with sensitive skin. It has worked great for me.
This shower gel is available from My Pure here for just £6.49.

Lovea KIDS - SPF 50 Natural Sunscreen Spray







As it is coming up to the Summer Months, it is time to get sun protected again. Whether or not you are off on a sunny holiday Abroad, spending a week at the seaside, or enjoying catching the rays in your own back - garden, it is always best to be prepared and use a sunscreen.

Today I will be sharing my thoughts with you on the Lovea Kids SPF 50 Natural Sunscreen Spray*. I am in my mid - twenties now and don't have any children of my own, but have super sensitive skin which burns so easily, so I always opt for a factor 50 sunscreen if I can. Using children's sunscreen may sound crazy, but I like my skin to be extra protected and you know children's sunscreen is the best!

Lovea is a brand I really enjoy using as I know they are a certified organic brand. I really trust Lovea as a brand and am always happy to use their products as I knwo they are good for your skin.  Lovea Sunscreens come with high UVA/UVB ratings, and exceed the toughest E.U rules on SPF protection. Their sunscreens are made from natural ingredients which protect your skin.

What I Thought



The Kids SPF 50 Natural Sunscreen Spray is unscented and is water resistant, which is a fantastic quality if you are on holiday. I prefer sunscreens in a spray form as they are so much easier to apply. This spray is none greasy and really easy to rub into the skin.

The packaging is simple with a cute Disney cartoon, which I am sure is pleasing to see for any young child.The product is 100ml so that is quite a lot of product to last you in the Summer heat, although when I am off on holiday I always double up and take plenty of sunscreen - just in-case!

I find this sunscreen really easy to use and it protects my skin. Some branded sunscreens cause irritation to the skin, so I am glad I have tried this one which has no nasties in the ingredients. I would definitely recommend trying it out if you have sensitive skin. 

Where To Buy



All of Lovea's Sun Protection products are available here at MyPure.co.uk.

May Empties



It feels like I haven't written an Empties post in such a long time. They were one of my favourite posts to write when I first began blogging and I am not sure why I stopped writing them! Today I am here with quite a hefty post full of empty products, where I will be giving you the low - down on each and every product I finished this Month. 

Cussons Imperial Leather Soft Touch Moisturising Shower Cream with Jojoba Milk & Vitamin E
This has quickly become my favourite shower cream. I have been reaching for it every day, it smells beautiful and lathers a lot by using the tiniest amount of product. This 300 ml bottle cost me about 80p (!) from Tesco. I am not sure why the price is so low, but have spotted the bigger bottles in the pound shop too. I hope it isn't being discontinued! I will definitely be stocking up as it smells gorgeous and makes me skin feel super soft. 

Clearasil Ultra Overnight Wash
This face wash has been in our bathroom for what seems like an eternity, and me and my sister have finally finished it off. It is a nice facial wash, which is easy to apply to wash your face before bed. I do like this, but haven't seen or felt any amazing results from it, so probably wouldn't rush to the shops to get another one. 

FCUK Body Spray
This is a mini spray of FCUK's original scent. It smells quite oriental and floral. The scent doesn't last very long, but is ideal to pop in your handbag if you are on the go and need a quick spritz. 

Superdrug Coconut & Shea Butter Bath Milk
I picked this up not long ago and it hasn't lasted very long! It is a lovely bath milk which smells divine. I love anything coconut scented! This bath milk makes your bath smell beautiful, I would definitely pick this up again next time I am in Superdrug. 

Sanctuary Spa Covent Garden Body Lotion
In all honestly, we have about 6 bottles of Sanctuary Body Lotion in our house (no lie!) so it is a relief when we finish them off! I love the scent and it is very moistursing, but lasts forever! 

Scandalous Gorgeously Rich Moisturising Shampoo
Another product that has been in our bathroom for a while waiting to be used up, this shampoo smells gorgeous and I really do think it has helped make my hair feel softer and look a little more silkier, too.

Lovea Nourishing Mask
A truly amazing hair mask - I would definitely recommend. My hair feels in much better condition after I use this - I am gutted I have used it all up, but will definitely be purchasing another! I reviewed this in full here* last Month if you fancy a more in depth post.

Soap and Glory Butter Yourself Moisturise Lotion
Another moisturiser used up this Month, is Soap and Glory's 'Butter Yourself'. I have to be honest in saying I didn't enjoy using this product at all, which is strange coming from a huge Soap and Glory fan like me. I just didn't like the scent all too much of this product, and didn't really feel it made my skin feel softer. Also, it seemed to take a long time to sink into the skin.

Elemis Spa Home Jasmine and Rose Milk Bath*
I absolutely love Elemis Bath products, and I adore this scent. This was a little 60ml bottle, but lasted a fair few baths. I was kindly given this at an event recently, and am thinking of purchasing it in full size I love it that much! My skin felt fantastic after using this in my bath. 

Matrix Biolage Color Last Cera Repair
I adore this product for treating my dull and lifeless coloured hair  It brings out the vibrance of my colour, it truly is a great product and I would recommend if you have permanently dyed hair like me.
I featured this product in a recent review which can be found here*. This product and others similar are available at Hairtrade. 

Macadamia Deep Hair Masque
I am a big fan of Macadamia products, and this hair masque is one of my favourites. I am unsure where I picked this 30ml sachet from now, but I love using them. It ensures my hair feels silky soft after use, something my hair desperately needs as it is is terrible condition at the moment. 


Have you tried any of the products I used up?

*I was gifted one product (Elemis Milk Bath) in a blogger event goody bag. I was not asked to feature this product on my blog . All opinions are 100 %  honest and my own. You can view my full disclaimer policy on the contact tab above*

Lovea Burkina Shea Moisturising Hair Mask Review



This Month, I have been trying out the Lovea Burkina Shea Moisturising Hair Mask. I decided I really wanted to try this hair mask as my hair is so dull and lifeless, it really needed a lift. I have bought a lot of hair masks in the past, with only one or two really working for me - but having an expensive price tag. My hair is prone to split ends and looks very dry, so I read a few reviews online about this hair mask and it was the best I could find, so I decided to give it a go. 

Lovea Burkina Shea Moisturising Hair Mask Review,

Lovea Burkina Shea Moisturising Hair Mask Review, Lovea Burkina Shea Moisturising Hair Mask,


Lovea

Lovea is a brand I have heard a lot about, so was delighted to see it stocked online at Mypure 
Lovea products contain certified organic and natural ingredients. The three main ingredients in Lovea products are Tahitian Monoi, Burkina Shea Butter and Moroccan Argan Oil. This product in particular is targeted for dry hair, so the main ingredient is Burkina Shea Butter; which is very nourishing and helps to soften the hair. You can see the entire range of Lovea products which Mypure stock here.



How To Use

The Lovea Burkina Shea Moisturizing Hair Mask has a slightly sticky texture, but smells beautiful. You only need the smallest amount of product. To use, you simply wash your hair and towel dry, then apply the Hair Mask evenly onto your hair. After five minutes I wash mine out, but you can leave it for up to 30 minutes in your hair if you fancy a real pamper.


Results


After drying the hair, you notice the benefits from the hair mask instantly. Your hair feels super soft and glossy, like it would if you had your hair done professionally at a salon. My hair now feels much more healthier and my split ends aren't quite as noticeable! 

The hair mask is available from Mypure here for just £7.99*. I feel that is a a very reasonable price for a huge 300ml tub which will go a long way.
