Molton Brown Fiery Pink Pepper Bath & Shower Gel is one of my all-time favourite products from Molton Brown and I'm very happy to have an extra bottle at my disposal. The shower gel is one of their most iconic fragrances which a sultry scent of spicy pink pepper, vibrant ginger and rich patchouli. It's a really beautiful and unique scent and the formula is one of the best - it lathers well and the scent lasts on your skin!
I'm super intrigued to try Faith In Nature Shea & Argan Shampoo Bar and not just because it smells incredible! The shampoo bar is handmade, vegan and helps to gently cleanse hair without stripping away its natural oils. I've used various shampoo bars over the years but I'm yet to try this one. It's super easy to use as you just place the bar under running water and rub it between palms to create a lather!
The Aromatherapy Associates De-Stress Muscle Gel is the one you need for those tight muscles. It's one of my favourite products from Aromatherapy Associates alongside the oil. With a blend of Rosemary, Black Pepper, Lavender and Ginger essential oils, they instantly cool and warms aches and pains while hydrating and softening the skin. Such a brilliant range!
The Crabtree & Evelyn Bali Volcanic Ash Face Mask is a new one for me but I'm already a big fan of the brand. The mask is inspired by an ancient mud bath ritual said to wash away negative energy as this purifying mask draws out impurities to refresh and reset the skin. Volcanic ash and bamboo charcoal powder gently buff and cleanse your pores, while aloe vera and green tea soothe and hydrate. You just need to sweep onto skin to detox congested complexions while retaining moisture, for clarity without tightness. Brilliant right?
I loveeeeee a dose of vitamin c so having the Murad Vita-C Triple Exfoliating Facial in the box put a big ol' smile on my face. Murad is another brand I haven't tried much of so I'm looking forward to seeing if this is as good as everyone says. It helps to revitalise your complexion as the triple blend uses physical, chemical and enzymatic exfoliants to resurface your skin and target dullness. Plus with added stabilised vitamin C it boasts 55% more antioxidant goodness than traditional forms of vitamin C. It is said results are noticeable in just two weeks so I can't wait to see how I get on with it.
And that is the Latest in Beauty advent calendar for 2021! There are some fabulous brands featured, some with more awards than you can shake a stick at - I personally think they've really outdone themselves this year and there isn't a single product I turned my nose up at or wouldn't use.
What do you think? It's available to buy now but be quick because this is gonna get snapped up before you know it.
