If you could only take ONE product with you on a Green Getaway…

…what would it be?

 

Also fab for summer is SUKIN’S AWARD-WINNING SUMMER SKIN SALVATION, 100% PURE ROSEHIP OIL (sourced from the seeds of wild Chilean grown rosehips, using a special solvent-free extraction process) and it’s been wowing beauty judges.

This “do-lots” pure oil was  RUNNER UP in the  Beauty Heaven Best in Beauty Awards 2014 – Best Age Management Product and also Commended in the Free From Skincare Awards in 2013.

 

SUKIN’s award-winning Rosehip oil £14.24 –  aka one of skin’s best friends

 

SUKIN’s (extremely well priced at £14.24) Rosehip Oil would have to be up there on our list because it’s one of those single ingredient oils which does so much and looks after skin at so many levels by rejuvenating, healing and protecting.

Not surprisingly, SUKIN’s 100% Certified Organic Rosehip Oil is one of their hero products –  it’s one of their year-round best-sellers.

How does Rosehip Oil act as a skin healer and anti-ager?

This oil is naturally rich in essential fatty acids (which protect cell membranes), Vitamin E, beta carotene and lycopene which is a forceful anti-ager – in fact, Rosehip Oil is one of the most age-slowing, skin-healing oils on our planet.

And it’s excellent for scarring or skin that’s overdone the sun

Rosehip Oil is the powerful, healing oil to have on your list if you want to fade a scar or you’ve subjected your skin to a bit too much sun – think of it as the facial oil version of a super-charged nutrition supplement.

How to use: 2-3 drops massaged into skin morning and night. In summer we’d be tempted to use this only at night, added to your night moisturiser .

(Remember, facial oils and direct sun are not a good combo!)

If you’re going out into the sun first thing in the morning, you might just want to use this at night.  It also works well on dry hands – blend a drop into your hand and nail cream and it’ll help keep hands smoother and softer even longer.

 

3 SUKIN SUMMER SAVIOURS

…this trio will have you covered for summer!

From too much heat to too much sun, skin’s needs change in summer….no problem! Here are three summer saviours – a calming Hydrating Mist Toner, natural Bronzing Gel and soothing, moisturising Aloe Vera Gel, all perfect for packing for an eco adventure…

The Hydrating Mist Toner

 

The Hydrating Mist Toner (centre)

Infused with rose and chamomile, this fine hydrating mist is the perfect handbag accessory for refreshing skin during long, hot days and on flights. You can use it to set makeup and over or under lotions, creams, gels and oils to soothe and cool. £8.12/125ml

SUKIN’s Sunless Bronzing Gel (face+body)

 

Specifically designed to encourage a natural looking tan, Sukin’s Sunless Bronzing Gel contains caramel for instant colour, aloe vera for instant hydration and the gentle bronzing active, dihydroxyacetone, to gradually develop a radiant glow – with no “fake tan” smell.

It’s natural, quick-drying and non-greasy and enriched with Australian lemon myrtle and lime oils for an invigorating fragrance. For the face, body and suitable for ALL skin types, including sensitive.  £15.99/200ml.

Now for the Aloe Vera Gel which (brilliant as a summer stand-by to soothe sun-reddened skin, sunburn, insect bites and keep your skin hydrated in dry heat) – definitely one to have on hand, whether you’re spending summer at home or away.

 

 

Heralded for its instant cooling, anti-septic properties, SUKIN’s pure aloe vera gel is perfect for after sun care, as well as for soothing irritated or dry skin. Made with 100% concentrated aloe vera powder, and reconstituted with a small amount of alcohol, the gel rapidly dissipates to deliver the aloe in pure form for optimal performance.  £8.12/125ml.
