Rabot 1745 Body Scrubs

Did you know that Hotel Chocolat don’t only make chocolate? They’ve also got a whole beauty range named after the place where their chocolate story started. Since 1745, the Rabot Estate has been producing cocoa beans and providing employment for the local farmers. But in recent years the  cocoa production has seen a real decline.... and with that the Rabot 1745 story began.

The Rabot Estate plantation in Saint Lucia is now the inspiration for a full range of beauty items, perfumes and diffusers. Some of these products are based around chocolate, but a lot of the range takes inspiration from the tropical location of Rabot and contain ingredients grown on the estate.

Autumnal Haul

Now is the best time of year to get the body and mind ready for the colder months, even though in the UK we don't have much of a 'sunny' summer, the sudden change into the colder months can be quite alarming. I've decided that this year, along with changing my wardrobe I also need to change my skincare, nails and of course health. These are just a few things that I have picked up to help me get through the next few months, everything featured in this haul is from Chemist 4 U, who have a whole range of brands on their site for you to shop from.

Summer Staples from The Body Shop

Summer, summer, summer! SUMMER! After what seems like forever, it is officially summer time and for me it starts this week. I finished placement last week, two months of planning, stress and long days all paid off because I passed with flying colours and could not be more proud of myself. In that time, I have not been online very much, very sorry but I had no time but I am back and kicking it off with some gorgeous pieces from The Body Shop. The Virgin Mojito and Pinita Colada range both scream summer and make you smell amazing.      

JASON Nourishing Cocoa Butter Review

As the winter months are bringing in colder weather my skin is suffering the most, dry skin everywhere and now at the point of flaking. I've been testing the Cocoa Butter from JASON* to see if it helps my skin in anyway and hopefully make it a lot softer.

The Jason Nourishing Cocoa Butter retails at £6.39 for 120g and smells divine. I wish you could smell it through the screen as it is wonderful. After my shower in the morning I've been applying this to my hands, legs and face particularly focusing on the elbows and knees as the skin is the worse. A worry of mine when applying cream everywhere is that it won't sink in to the skin straight away and I'd have to wait 10 minutes before wearing skinny jeans. As it is, they are hard to put on after the shower. This is different, it soaks straight up and leaves my skin feeling silky soft. It also doubles up as a great hand cream and makes you hand feel lovely. You can buy yourself a tub of this amazing cocoa butter at the NutriCentre.
