AA Skincare - Frankincense & Rose Clay Face Mask

My skin can get dehydrated quite easily, as well as dry and so I have a fairly big collection of face masks and creams. However, I don't tend to reach for a mask all that often when I probably should.

Since receiving the Frankincense & Rose Clay Face Mask, I have been regularly using a face mask much more often, and can already see and feel how much of a difference it has been making to my skin. I am familiar with this brand, and have enjoyed using products from them before, and so I had high expectations for this and I was not disappointed. It is infact my favourite product of their's I have so far tried. 

This is a natural clay mask that is made with essential oils to help to improve the skin and leave it hydrated. The clay is quite thick and dries within five - ten minutes, and is really easy to wash away afterwards. 

The scent is quite strong, which doesn't bother me, and I find a little bit goes a long way.

Amphora Aromatics: Lavender and Tea Tree Moisturiser

This is the second product from the AA Skincare range that I am reviewing on my blog, (see here) and once again, it has been a pleasure using this product. I have a lot of respect for this range; with a combination of essential oils and natural ingredients this skincare range creates effective and affordable products.

Lavender & Tea Tree Moisturising Face Lotion
I have never been fond of the scent of lavender, particularly when used in products that are applied to the body, and so before I tried this I was slightly curious about whether that factor would have an input in my use of this face lotion. I was pleasantly surprised and found that the scent was not too overwhelming, and that I've become to like the scent of lavender. I am also a fan of tea tree and the benefits it has and have found that the mix of these two together creates a calming and soothing lotion that also helps to refresh and clear the skin. 

The cream is light and absorbs easily and quickly and it does not make my skin feel sticky or greasy at all. I am not 100% certain as to whether this lotion clears spot prone skin or blemishes, as fortunately I have been having a good skin month! I hope to be able to test this theory in the upcoming weeks. 

I really like the packaging of this product, the easy to use pump is great for distributing the cream, and £6.96 for 100ml is really not bad going at all.

Review - AA Skincare

AA Skincare is a natural skincare range from Amphora Aromatics that combines natural ingredients with essential oils to create effective products for your skin at affordable prices. Their range covers all skin types and caters for young skin to more mature skin, so there is a product suited to everyone. 

Amphora Aromatics were kind enough to send me the Seaweed and Aloe Refreshing Eye Gel (Link), a cool and refreshing multi purpose product, that removes make up and provides rehydration for the very delicate skin around your eyes. 

Who is it suitable for? Everyone! The great thing about this particular product is that it is suitable for every skin type but especially sensitive skin, leaving behind soothed and calmed skin as well as making you feel refreshed. 

The packaging is cute and small, making the product easy to use with the pump allowing a small amount of the gel to be released. I applied the gel with cotton wool and held it in place on my eyes for a little while before gently rubbing the make up away. I found this was the most effective way to remove the majority of my eye make up, and did not need to use so much of the product or go through as many cotton wool pads by using this method. 

Ingredients Extracts of eyebright and cornflower to soothe, cucumber adds to the hydrating and refreshing aspect of the gel. Seaweed is a natural anti-inflammatory which calms the skin, it also promotes healthy cell growth. Aloe Vera also helps cell growth, as well as calming and soothing the skin. 

After using this for a few days, I found that it made the routine of removing my make up much simpler and way more efficient. It effectively removes the majority of eye make up with one pump of the gel, removing even the toughest eye liner and mascara. The product is definitely worth a purchase due to it's two in one nature; removing make up and giving your skin a pick me up whilst soothing and cooling it at the same time. For £6.96 this product is a steal!

I think I will definitely be purchasing more products from them in the future.
