Review | Royal Coffee scrub

Friday, 28 October 2016

If you're anything like me and find it difficult to wake up in the morning. You'll love this coffee scrub. I'm so slow in the morning and it takes me forever to become a functioning human being. Even a cup of coffee doesn't always do the trick. But with this scrub, I get to smell the coffee right away and it actually helps. 

Om du är lik mig och tycker det är svÃ¥rt att vakna pÃ¥ morgonen och det tar mig lÃ¥ng tid att bli en fungerande människa. Även en kopp kaffe hjälper inte alltid. Men med den här skrubben fÃ¥r jag känna lukten av kaffe pÃ¥ en gÃ¥ng och det hjälper faktiskt. 


I do love a good scrub in the shower and this Royal Coffee scrub from Naturelle Cosmetics is great. With the smell of coffee, chocolate, and orange it's almost good enough to eat. 

Jag gillar verkligen en bra skrubb i duschen och den här Royal Coffee Scrub frÃ¥n Naturelle Cosmetics Ã¤r fantastisk. Med doften av kaffe och apelsin choklad är det nästan gott nog att äta. 

Every time you sleep, your body produces new skin cells. Many of the dead skin cells fall off, but most  accumulate on your top layer of your skin. To be able to get rid of these dead skin cells you'll need to exfoliate. For this, you'll need a good scrub. 

Varje gÃ¥ng du sover, producerar din kropp nya hudceller. MÃ¥nga av de döda hudcellerna ramlar av, men de flesta ackumulerar pÃ¥ översta lagret pÃ¥ din hud. För att fÃ¥ bort döda hudceller behöver du exfoliera. Till detta behöver du en bra skrubb. 


With ingredients like Coffee Arabica Seed Powder, Coffee Robusta Seed Powder, cocoa, orange oil, avocado oil, jojoba oil, and almond seed, it's packed with exfoliating mechanisms to scrub away dead skin cells. At the same time, it contains a combination of essential oils to keep skin smooth and younger-looking.

Coffee scrubs are great for tightening the skin and a great to get rid of cellulite. 

Med ingredienser som arabiskt kaffe frö pulver, Kakao, apelsin olja, avokado olja, jojoba olja och mandel frön, är det packat med exfolierande mekanismer att skrubba bort döda hudceller. Samtidigt innehÃ¥ller det en kombination av eteriska oljor för att behÃ¥lla huden mjuk och ung. 

Kaffeskrubbar är bra för att Ã¥tstrama huden och fantastisk mot celluliter. 

The only negative is, I found it takes a good scrub to get it off the skin, to make sure you don't walk around with coffee stained skin for rest of the day.

Det enda negativa är, jag tycker det mÃ¥ste skrubbas ordentligt för att fÃ¥ bort kaffet frÃ¥n huden sÃ¥ att jag inte gÃ¥r runt med kaffefläckad hud resten av dagen. 

The Royal coffee scrub is £9.95

Organic Bath Oils for Autumn

Thursday, 15 September 2016


There's no secret that Autumn is my favourite season. I love everything about it. It's also a time for long hot baths. It's so great to have a nice hot bath when it's getting colder and colder outside. It's all about getting cosy inside. I thought I share some of my favourite bath products. 

Det är ingen hemlighet att hösten är min favorit Ã¥rstid. Jag älskar allt med den. Det är även en tid för lÃ¥nga varma bad. Det är sÃ¥ härligt att ta ett varmt bad när det bara blir kallare och kallare ute. Allt handlar om att mysa inomhus sÃ¥ mycket det gÃ¥r. Jag tänkte dela med mig av mina favorit bad produkter. 



If I feel tired and sore, which I often do. Working as a hairdresser and being a keen runner I often find my body in pain. Then MOA (modern organic apothecary) green bath potion is my go to. A bath oil with peppermint and fennel to soothe the muscles. I feel like a new person when getting out of the bath.

När jag känner mig trött och öm, vilket jag ofta gör. Att jobba som frisör och att vara en entusiastisk löpare kan jag ofta känna att min kropp gör ont. DÃ¥ är MOA (modern organic apothecary) green bath potion är min gÃ¥ till produkt. En badolja med pepparmint och fänkÃ¥l för att lugna musklerna. Jag känner mig som en ny person när jag stiger ut ur badkaret. 



For a relaxing bubble bath is the Neal's Yard foaming bath oil perfect. It has a blend of lavender, marjoram and geranium. It's wonderful to have a bubble bath once in a while and it's wonderful to relax with a good book. 

För ett avslappnande bubbelbad är Neal's Yard bubbel badolja perfekt. Det har en blandning av lavendel, mejram och geranium. Det är underbart att ha ett bubbelbad ibland  och slappna av med en bra bok. 



I like to light some candles, put a face mask on and just sink into the water and relax and forget about the day. 

Jag gillar att tända nÃ¥gra ljus, lägga pÃ¥ en ansiktsmask och sjunka ner i vattnet, slappna av och glömma dagen.

How to relax and rewind

Sunday, 13 December 2015

Sometimes life is full on and it's hard to get time to yourself. But that's when it's more important to make sure you take time out and relax. Leading up to Christmas is that time for me. With everyone needing their hair done before Christmas. I work more than usual and being constant busy. My body aches and I feel constantly tired. I know it's time to take time out and have some me-time. 




Often when I need to relax I go for a run to let my brain lock off and just empty my mind. I also love going for a massage. But sometimes the best thing to do is to take an hour or two and just do nothing and pamper myself. 

First, I like to take a bath. I'm not a massive bath person so not taking a long long hot bath here. I normally just need to let my muscles relax for a bit. I've recently discovered the perfect friend for this kind of bath. It's MOA (Magic Organic Apotechary) fortifying green bath potion. 



The MOA bath potion is perfect for my aching and tired body. I never enjoyed a bath so much since I've started using the green bath potion. As a hairdresser I stand for many hours a day. I'm also a keen runner do my legs are often aching as well as my lower back. Within minutes in my bath I feel better. I can feel my muscles starting to loosen up and I feel energised. 

MOA's bath potion contains refreshing peppermint, detoxifying fennel, calming, relaxing fir needle and sweet birch to ease achy muscles. 

It feels refreshing and I love the cooling feeling the peppermint gives the skin. I always feel too hot after a few minutes and want to get out of the bath. But not with this bath potion, I feel I can stay in the bath forever whilst it works miracles on my muscles. 


Also a little side note for anyone who hasn't got their Christmas presents yet. The MOA green bath potion has the most gorgeous packaging and is perfect to give away as a present to anyone who loves a bath or just need to de-stress. 

When taking a bath I like to light candles all around the bath. I find candles, relaxing and helps me to rewind. 


I also put on a face mask to get rid of any dirt and impurities. At the moment I'm using Botanicals revitalising mask. To read more about the mask check out my review here.


After the bath I cream my body with Neals Yard Remedies Beauty sleep body butter. I love this body butter. It's so nourishing for the body makes the skin soft. It hydrates it well that it still feels smooth the day after. It has a calming effect, which makes it perfect after a relaxing bath. 

Once relaxed and pampered I make myself a cup of tea, light some more candles and with a good book I get cosy in my bed. Even better if I got some chocolate too. 


There I stay as long as possible. 

What do you do to relax? Do you find me-time important?
