Items this month include:

Nail Girls varnish in “Nude Pink”

Suti Trial Pack includes a cleansing balm, purity balm and a foot balm

Raw Skincare Lip Balms (choices include hint of mint, ginger and rescue me)

Tea Pigs (flavour choices are super fruit, Rooibos Crème Caramel and Chocolate Flake Tea

Beauty Pick of the Month – April 2014

 

retail whiteclayginseng_125ml.claysprayRed Clay With Grape Prof Body

ClaySpray
(Brightening White Clay with Ginseng Masque)

*Pictures from the ClaySpray Website

My favourite product which I received in April has to be the Brightening White Clay with Ginseng Masque by ClaySpray which was sent to me in my You Beauty Discovery Beauty Box.

Upon choosing my products I was so excited to see this in the selection menu as this is the first time I have seen a face mask in a spray formula. It’s no wonder that these sold out so quickly on the website!

ClaySpray is the first clay emulsion to come in a spray can which not only helps keep the clay fresh but pure also.

The founder of Clay Spray is Marian an Archaeologist by training. “Clay is intimately bond to the excavation deposits, where Archaeologists patiently scrapes away layer by layer from the most recent traces human settlements through the oldest until a virgin stratum is reached that no human has ever had contact with. A clay deposit that has not undergone any alterations since its geological formation millions of years ago. This is where the job of the Archeologist finished and the dream of Pharmaclay starts”

This product exfoliates and renews. Removes dead skin cells, revealing a fresh new skin surface with energising ginseng to brighten, for an immediate replenished healthy look and 95% of its ingredients are natural.

This mask is perfect for tired and dull skin (ideal for me as the pressures of work and late nights play a toll on my skin) This is for combination and normal skin types.

I definitely didn’t waste any time to try this product. I initially thought this could be sprayed straight onto the face however this certainly was not the case! As per the instructions I sprayed this into the palm of my hand. The spray releases a lot of product really fast so you do have to be really careful otherwise it could be quite disastrous with clay everywhere! I applied and left it on for about 20 minutes and it dried firm.

I rinsed in the shower, and magically I acquired radiant looking skin! My pores looked more refined and my skin did look noticeably better. I am so impressed with this product it really is a hidden secret amongst the Beauty market and only wished I came across this earlier. I am quite particular about face masks but this really is effective and the results are noticeable. I am using this on a weekly basis as part of my cleansing regime.

I have recently purchased the Mattifying Red Clay Mask and the Glow Red Clay with Cacao Mask from www.feelunique.com who are stockists of ClaySpray. I am looking forward to their arrival!
