Alteya Certified Organics Liquid Soap - Grapefruit & Orange

-
With all that is going on in the world right now with Covid-19 I am, like many others, washing my hands constantly! Although I have a few soap bars in my stash, I do prefer to use liquid soaps. It also makes it easier when I'm at work (postie over here for those that don't know me). Once I leave the delivery office there are few places I can wash my hands, especially now that pubs and restaurants are closed. So I take a small squeezy bottle and fill it with liquid soap, a bottle of water and a small towel... and hey presto! My own little washing station on the go!

This month while searching for my next liquid soap to try I came across Alteya Certified Organic Liquid Soap, so I picked up the Grapefruit & Orange Liquid Soap* (£7.65, 250ml)


Suitable for daily use, this safe and non-toxic certified organic liquid soap gently and effectively cleans skin, leaving hands feeling smooth and moisturized.


Main Ingredients:
Coconut oil – provides a unique combination of cleansing, firming and skin-conditioning properties. This oil is greatly moisturising and supports the protective skin barrier.

Sweet almond oil – forms a rich conditioning lather when used in soap-making. This oil is high in Vitamins E, A and D as well as Oleic and Linoleic fatty acids. Thanks to its emollient properties, it makes skin soft and supple. It also attracts moisture to the skin and prevents it from drying out.

Olive oil – very suitable for dry skin due to its intensely moisturising and nourishing properties. It is rich in antioxidants (Vitamin E and polyphenols) which are renowned for their ability to protect skin against environmental and free radical damage.

Orange oil – its pleasant citrus scent has a cheerful and uplifting, yet simultaneously relaxing and calming effect.

Grapefruit oil – it is said to have potent antimicrobial properties against potentially harmful bacteria.


My Thoughts:
Overall a lovely soap which lathers well and leaves my hands clean and soft. I found the Grapefruit scent comes through more than the Orange does which is nice. I love this fresh citrus scent of this soap, it is very uplifting, and actually makes me want to wash my hands more. Have you tried any of Alteya's Liquid Soaps?

It has been ages since I've bought a Look Fantastic Beauty Box but after seeing some spoiler pictures on Facebook I decided to use my glossy credits to get this months box. Normally the box cost £15 including postage, with my glossy credits it took the price down a little to £9.35. The box this month is has a lovely white and blue design on top with a pinky purple base, which I will be keeping and reusing. It also comes with a copy of the latest Elle Magazine. From Rituals is Cherry Blossom & Rice Milk Soothing Hand Balm  70ml (£9.50)- a lovely floral lotion made with Shea Butter and Organic Rice Milk, the lotion replenishes and rejuvenates hands. Rituals are always a welcome brand I enjoy getting in boxes. Eos Lip Balm  7g (£6.50) in Strawberry Sorbet - Not actually a brand I've used before, but a handy balm to have in the makeup bag. Probably not something I would take out and about with me as I find the shape awkward for travel, I prefer small stick balms. This ba

Great weather calls for great sun protection with Alteya Orgaincs

I'm loving the great weather we've been having so far this week....has summer finally arrived!? With temperatures up to 30 degrees in Scotland and soaring up to 38 in parts of England by Thursday, sun protection is a MUST if you are planning to leave your house even if all you do is sit in your garden. Really you should be using an SPF product daily regardless of the weather...yes even if its raining! As an outdoor worker (postwoman) a good SPF is top of my list all year round but especially at this time of year! Alteya Organics Whole Body Sunscreen * (£13.40 for 90ml) is enriched with emollient botanical butters and oils to hydrate the skin and protect against damaging UVA and UVB sun rays which cause sunburn and premature aging. So what is SPF and why do we need it? SPF or sun protection factor measures the level of protection a product will give you and how much longer it will take your skin to burn when wearing sunscreen vs not wearing sunscreen.

Sukin Blemish Control Kit

My skin is quite prone to spots and blemishes so I really wanted to find a product that would help to control breakouts and reduce the redness I have. I've used Sukin products before but never knew they had a blemish control range until recently. The  Sukin Blemish Control Kit * (£19.95) contains 4 products to help calm and clear the skin, three are 50ml and one is 15ml so decent sized samples, and handy for travelling with. Clearing Facial Wash purifies the skin while removing dirt and impurities with Quince and Pomegranate. Pore Perfecting Toner refines and refreshes the skin with Eucalyptus, Tea Tree and Mint. Spot Banishing Gel helps to fight breakouts with Willowherb, Salicylic Acid and Eculyptus, while the  Oil Free Moisturiser clarifies and balances the skin with Willowherb, Quince and Moringa. Willowherb is said to fight the causes of blemishes in just 30 minutes! And while I didn't see a huge improvement that quickly, I did notice a big difference withi
