The story behind HOIA home spa products started when lemongrass body scrub got noticed and started living its own life of taking care of many skin problems. Now their line is wider, so that every person with its own preferences can find a scent and formula for their body and senses. Good things do come in pairs and I believe it totally applies to body care.

HOIA lemongrass body scrub with its zestful and joyful scent picks you right up and winds you down while rubbing it all over the body. It is really forgiving when it comes to application, at first you will think you need more, but the smallest amount goes the longest way. While all exfoliated and layered with the scrub, it will be the waiting game. To get the full benefit of the product and allow your body to get the treatment it deserves, let it sit on your skin for few minutes. To pass the time have little dance party, or sing. I usually put on hair mask for full pampering session. After few minutes rinse it all off. You can feel the softest layer of all the good oils on your skin and that is a good thing, don't wash it off. Getting out of your shower you won't need the moisturiser, your skin won't cry for help because of its dryness and tight feeling. Your skin will not be greasy, but thankful for the natural butters and all the blood flow it got out of the scrubbing session you just had!

Like I said before, good things come in pairs. It is good to have a back-up plan when the winter is getting to you and your skin needs a relief, also know and something replenishing and moisturising. HOIA rosewood & avocado body whip is whipped up body balm that feels like mousse to the touch, that will melt to most precious luxurious velvety oil. When applying it will skin right into skin and leave you with the softest skin. My own personal winter preference: to 'bury' myself in it and feel moisturised, itch free, extremely comfortable and relieved without layering another, another and another layer of body lotion on in order to get rid of the dryness.

As the whip is packed with vitamins, butters and oils that will even out the skin tone, replenishes the damage, help to build collagen and relieve any skin problems you might have. Essential oils of rosewood and geranium will work for much calmer senses and renewed skin.

Another great Estonian company that creates amazingly pure and natural cosmetics - Moshi right in front of you. But not just 'every other' Estonian company, because Moshi is quite special. It draws attention, brings out emotions, is honestly outspoken yet really affordable. All the bottles of Moshi's products are carrying simple labels with different statements - you can easily find the one that goes by your heart the most or get yourself surprised by having the random one that will inspire you whenever you walk into your bathroom. Moshi states produly: we don't offer colourful pictures or synthetic ingredients. Too good to be true? Not at all!

I picked out two quite different products to write my first post about this sleek yet simple creator of natural beauty. One bottle holds dreamy goodness of softest body scrub and the other brings all the joy to the strands that are in need of a good moisture kick.

Sugary body scrub has been infused with wild mango and the scent of it feels just like walking under the mango trees. You can expect this scrub to nourish and deep condition your skin while gently sloughing off all the dead skin. Sea buckthorn oil along with sesame oil and olive oil, enriched with vitamins, will leave even the driest body silky smooth. Whenever I am using it, I like to take my time and rub it all over my body as long as sugar starts to melt and all the good oils get decent time to absorb into my skin.

Deeply nourishing hair oil ties together coconut oil, avocado oil, lavender and geranium - very simple, yet effective and without any unnecessary fillers that keep the actual goodness away from your hair shaft. This oil is slightly green in colour, due to deeply moisturising rich avocado oil and smells very relaxing due to essential oils of lavender and geranium. Dollop of added natural essential oils will also keep your scalp healthy and on its best behaviour! 

Usage of this hair oil is quite similar like you would do with any other hair treatment oils: you can use small amount as a leave-in hair serum on damp ends or you can distribute good amount of oil through the hair and scalp as a pre shampoo treatment. Leave it on for at least 10 minutes (2 forgetful hours in my case) and after washing it off, take your time to admire the softness of your strands. 

Bonus tip: use on dry hair as a serum, small amount rubbed between palms will tame away any frizziness or fly-aways. It will also keep your usually dry curls soft and smelling good. 

Want the smoothest softest skin in a natural way? Tune in! I am going to talk about the perfect combo that your skin will love and you will adore. JOIK surprised its fans with many new products and two of them are meant for the skin of our bodies, the area we often neglect when it comes to taking proper care of it. What can be the best way to encourage us to pamper ourselves more, than making body products that are natural, smell like desserts you are constantly thinking of and at the same time work better than you expected? 

I use self-tanners on and off. I like the result, but a lot of self-tanners have put me off because of the whole process and difficulty of. Some self-tanners deliver great tone and are easy to apply, but tend to make my skin so dry. When you have used self-tanners in your life even once, you will know that dry skin and fake tan doesn't go well together. Dryness makes the most even tan wear off patchy and uneven. During the winter time, when I feel the actual need to pamper myself and from time to time apply the tanner, the skin tends to be naturally on the drier side and that usually gives me another reason just to resist and be pale. Or I reach for gradual tanners which usually don't deliver that intense fast results. And you really can't see what you are doing there, so it is a surprise when you wake up in the morning. 

St. Moriz Instant Self Tanning Mousse has been a game changer for me. I use the 'medium' shade which in plenty of darkness for me as it is easily buildable, yet stays very natural.

Mousse formula of self-tanners glide on smooth, sink into skin fast, but give you the perfect amount of time to work around it to blend. The shade of it isn't orange or unnatural at all. You end up looking naturally bronzed for a about week. Meanwhile you don't have to worry about skin being dry or tan getting patchy and uneven because of it. Self-tan mousse just tends to have finer texture than any lotion can have and that allows the pigment sink into your skin more evenly and stay there longer.

Why St.Moriz? It is affordable, easy to get and has a quality comparable to any other similar high-end self-tanner you may be familiar with. 

When it comes to taking showers, using a bar soap has felt more attractive to me for a while now. Shower gels can be easier to use and take with you, but bar of soap definitely lasts longer, feels luxurious and there are so many purely organic ones available, that contradict the belief of soaps being drying on your skin. Good soap is pure and takes care of your skin while cleansing it carefully.

For the price and ingredients in it, you will get more than you pay for. The soap is quite big and looks actually more beautiful than you would expect from a junk of soap. It smells divine and as long as you get under your shower with it, you can enjoy the richest softest lather that feels nourishing and creates delicate scent of berries lingering around you. It would be weird to give someone a soap as a gift, unless it is a soap by Mádara. There is so much more into it... this soap will be like a part of your body care than just something you would wash yourself with. It looks simple, yet sleek and luxurious. 

Few weeks ago I visited a local fall fair where there was everything from food to clothes and of course, natural handmade cosmetics. This is usually the reason I go into these fairs, so many great and natural brands have come out in Estonia and started their brand by selling the products at the fairs. I have noticed many ones as long as cosmetic products go, but Looduse Pärl (means Nature's Pearl in Estonian) was the one that was unknown for me.

They offered a wide selection of products that included body oils, soaps, body scrubs, face creams, hair products etc. The lady gave me to smell every single body scrub and they all were absolutely delicious. Not to mention the pureness that makes them good enough to eat, I most definitely had a slight urge to taste them. As I was sure I will get the hair serum, I had to think for a minute in order to decide which scrub comes home with me. Decision was hard, because all of them were tempting. 

I finally opted for the Strawberry Sugar Scrub With Poppy Seeds and I am more than happy with it. Perfect hair product in addition to the scrub was a Hair Serum With Macadamia & Argan Oil. Both completely handmade, pure, natural, affordable and even if it is not recommended to eat them, they are pure enough to eat. What can be better?

The hair serum comes in high quality pump bottle and holds good 50ml of the product. Serum is a oil based mixture of sweet almond oil, macadamia oil, jojoba oil, argan oil, lemongrass and ylang-ylang.

It is smoothing, healing and softening while also adding much needed moisture to colour treated or dry hair. It adds a natural protection against UV rays and as a bonus gives a perfect fresh zesty scent to the strands. I have so many hair serums and oils as I go through them like crazy. My hair couldn't handle being without additional moisture, may it be a serum or oil. I must admit, I have learned to love not so natural hair serums as they do more to my hair. I know, in this case it is probably superficial as the silicones in synthetic serums create the illusion of healthier hair, but oh well.

This serum changed the game for me! It is like heaven and I have already used good quarter of it and continue until I see the end of it. And then probably order some more. It has the perfect balance of different oils and therefore won't make your hair greasy or flat, but nourishes them into the silky perfection. I add few pumps into damp hair and then let it air dry and it is guaranteed that I won't see any frizz in my hair afterwards. When my hair is dry I add a pump or two to my ends and will rock soft incredibly great smelling hair. Good tip! I usually end up putting more into my palms, so I can rub the extra into my hands and get them perfectly moisturised good smelling.

Strawberry Sugar Scrub comes in a fancy jar you can most definitely reuse after you have finished with it. Hint! Make your own body scrub into it afterwards. As said, it contains sugar that is perfect for dry skin or at times when skin gets drier, fall and winter. It also has red clay that has many minerals to tone and rejuvenate skin while vitamins A, C and E will even out the skin tone and poppy seeds help to get rid of dead skin cells. Strawberry powder has a lot of detoxifying benefits while repairing free radical skin damage, olive oil nourishes and protects skin from further damage.

From the look of it you can imagine how it smells. It smells like freshly picked strawberries! Not only makes it uplifting, but you will definitely be more persistent with your weekly exfoliation as this makes the whole experience so much more joyful. Skin will be soft, smooth and nourished as it is the softest scrub I have tried. Definitely will get some more if I run out, but then I will try the other three they carry: mandarin, grapefruit and chocolate and mint. Yes, chocolate and mint! Can it get better?

I am truly happy I discovered this small company and got few things to try from them. They do deserve so much more exposure as their products seem to be hands down, better than some of the other, more famous, natural brands in Estonia sell. I am also surprised how great the quality is as their prices isn't that high at all. I was little bit disappointed in local handmade natural cosmetics companies, because many of them have become too vain and expensive as soon as they get little more popularity, but this company definitely is a nice refreshing find that gave my hope back.

This summer I decided to got something more natural when it comes to suncare. I haven't had organic sun products before and Biosolis seemed to be a perfect choice. It isn't plain as many organic products tend to be and therefore you can get totally clean suncare products that at the same time are innovative enough to cover your specific needs. Biosolis range of products is pretty wide, but I chose two products that suit me perfectly and have been using throughout the summer.

Two totally different products both come in neat and high quality bottles with a spray cap on top. They hold much, but are small enough to carry in your bag or fit into drawers when not needed. 

Darker brown bottle holds Biosolis Oil Spray with SPF 6 in it. It is perfect to use when your skin has already been exposed to the sun and you don't need very high sun protection anymore. That been said, it still protects the skin perfectly and moisturises the skin while allowing it to get an even tan. 

It contains natural oils of Sesame seed, Jojoba, Argan, Rapeseed and Karanja seed which contains an ingredient called pongamia which increases the protection and broadens the UV spectrum for even better protection. While it is oil formulae it isn't greasy and sinks right into the skin, leaving it smooth, beautiful and even toned. This spray oil is slightly tinted so it will beautify the skin and leave the appearance of deeper tan immediately after application.

The other product is Biosolis Self-Tanning Spray. While you can find truly organic sun protection when you look good, I haven't had a chance to get my hands on organic self tanner before. First time using it, I wasn't sure about it as all the great tanners that are easy to use, don't smell and deliver the even application, tend to be full of chemicals. 

So I hoped for the best, but didn't know what to expect. The consistency of it is a milky lotion that goes on really smooth like any hydrating body milk does. It comes out slightly bronzed yellow shade, so you are able to see where it goes while rubbing it into your skin. The most satisfying to me was the scent of this lotion, it smells like green tea to me. At all times of the self-tanning process there is no typical self-tanner smell at all. But this product surprised me one more time: the tan it gives is so natural looking, evenly sunkissed while skin is moisturised, soft and smells fresh. Overall I love this product. As it feels very luxurious and works something like higher end product would, I don't use it too often right now. Mainly because I imagine how great it would be during winter time when I desperately need a warmer shades on my body. It works perfectly whatever the shade of your skin is and gives you a natural healthy tan while also taking care of your skin and beautifying it. 

This natural body lotion, rich in sweet almond oil, was lost in my beauty stash since I got it at the winter time. Then I used almost half of it and continued using something else, probably richer body cream since my skin needed extra moisture during cold months. When I stumbled upon it few days ago, I fell in love with it again. Now, when I have little bit tan on, it shows up even better, how great this JOIK Shimmering Body Lotion with Sweet Almond Oil actually is.

As said, it is lotion, so the consistency is pretty liquid and quick absorbing. It is almost like a much needed milk on skin, that nourishes, hydrates, smooths and gives a healthy glow. I personally wouldn't call it a shimmer as it is luckily much more delicate than shimmer would be. The warm toned base of the lotion and healthy sheen running through it makes skin looking healthy and flattering at all times. 

Lotion is also rich in coconut oil and shea butter and its iridescence comes from natural minerals. The smoothest texture of this product makes it easy to apply and the warm sweet scent reminds me so much of raspberries or a strawberry milkshake.

The Body Shop released its beautifying oils for a while ago, but only few days ago I got my hands on their Chocomania Beautifying Oil. I kept my eye on their oils for a while, but now when they had a deal going on in Estonia, where you had to pay only 6 euros for a bottle of dry oil, I couldn't resist. I sniffed pretty much every oil they had and opted for the Chocomania version of it. It smells exactly like a great amount of dark chocolate.

I am sure that many of you know about this oil already, but to sum it briefly up, it does it all. It can be used on body, face, skin and it moisturises, illuminates and soothes. I am aware that a lot of The Body Shop's products aren't completely clean when it comes to ingredients, but this one is quite good when it comes it it. It contains lightweight blend of nut oils, including marula oil, brazil nut oil, babassu oil, sweet almond oil and aloe vera. And like I mentioned before, my choice of scents smells truly like a healthy bite of dark chocolate, little bit sweet with the hint of bitterness.

Oil bottle has tiny whole in the cap that makes the amount of oil very controllable. Few drops of oil go a long way, so you don't need much, but as it smells and feels divine, you can but more on than you actually need. That is also not a problem at all, as it is quickly drying dry oil that won't leave a residue on hair or skin. I use it mainly on body, wouldn't but it on my face, but do love few drops as a hair oil on my ends. First I noticed it is a little bit drying on hair when used it as an independent hair oil, but to hydrate between washes, it works amazing without making hair greasy! As long as applying on body, it illuminates, smells divine and hydrates deeply. Illuminating effect of it conceals any faults your skin might have and makes your summer tan appear a lot healthier and smoother. I would definitely buy it again as using a oil has never been so easy and fuss free.

I haven't posted a blog post on all the things that wait testing out or writing posts on before. Until today! You have to change things up in order to keep things interesting for yourself and for readers. Endlessly pouring rain behind my window and a hot cup of tea being my trustful friend, shall we start!

I don't like hair sprays. I just don't! I know you should use them if you just spent half an hour of your valuable time to make those lovely curls or amazing blow-out, but I can't make myself to use them. Maybe it is so, because I haven't found the right one yet? All the hair sprays I have gotten previously I ended up giving away after few uses. They always make my hair dry, stiff and plastic. Not to mention my hair does what it likes to do as it has its own stubborn brains and no hair spray would stop it! I got my hands on Macadamia Natural Oil Control Hair Spray that is filled with Macadamia Oil and Omegas 3, 5 and 7. I am not completely sure about this product yet, but I can say this may be the product that restored my trust in hair sprays. Maybe because it is full of oils and really lightweight when it come to its finish. Also, keep the humidity away from your hair do and that is very needed with this weepy summer weather we have in here.

Burberry Body Gold Limited Edition Eau de Parfum is something I refuse to put down lately even though it isn't necessarily a summery scent. It has top notes of green absinthe, illuminating peach and delicate freesia. Floral heart notes include rose absolute, iris and warm sandalwood. Base notes reveal woody cashmeran, creamy vanilla, amber and musk. Totally warm and comforting scent that has really powerful sensual twist to it. It is something you would wear at night or on colder months as its warmth with the sour sweetness can be too heavy for summer. As I said, I have found a true comfort out of this scent on these cold days and refuse to skip it in my morning routine.

Two products have cheered me up so much lately and even though there's not much sun out there, I still enjoy having brand new pair of sunglasses along with this sleek watch. To be exact I got to wear my sunglasses for 20 minutes yesterday when we had beautiful bright sun during temperature of 4'C that made me doubt what season it is. Just after that we got huge load of pouring rain on us and I had to put my sunglasses inside this nifty case it comes with. These are KOMONO Urkel sunglasses in Tortoise. They give an excellent protection and are so comfortable to wear as they are high quality. You know how some cheaper glasses can have a plastic feel? It is not a case with these ones, they are made with optical hinges and have metal core inside. Not to mention I love the warm dark brown colour of mine. My watch is also from KOMONO, Magnus Black Black to be exact. With its black genuine leather strap, stainless steel brushed matte metal case, quite big display, lightness and water resistance it has all the qualities a perfect watch should have for me. I love how the simplicity and sleekness go hand in hand with this one!

A true multi tasking product, Shiseido Face Color Enhancing Trio in RS1 has everything a face could need when it comes to makeup. Harmonized tones of highlighter, sculpter and blusher form the perfect combination in one compact to use all three separately or mixed together. RS1 shade has been described as 'Glamorous Bronze Luster' and that is so true. The blusher gives the right amount of colour to achieve that flushed summery look, the bronzer is perfect for warm contouring or just adding wamrht to the face. Highlighter with the warm golden undertones and finest sheen to it will give that perfect angelic goddess glow. This also has to be the first makeup compact I own that came with the brush that isn't a garbage. The brush actually is the softest ever and makes the product application effortless.

Some time ago, a clothing brand Seppälä came out with cosmetic line full of different products from body care to makeup. At first I didn't know what to expect from a clothing brand. What do they know about beauty products? To try them out myself, I got few items and started out with the body product, The Must Have Body Scrub with passionfruit & guava. First, they are pretty clever with the names of the products that are simple and not over the top, yet witty and catching. I wasn't even under the shower yet when I was amazed by the packaging of this body scrub. It is such a high quality plastic jar that comes with a reflecting silver lid you can use as a mirror. How snazzy is that? The product itself makes me probably scrub my body more often than I should. But is is okay as it is really gentle and creamy. The scent of it is what gets to me! It smells like an expensive Victoria's Secret product and has the whipped cream consistency with fine gentle beads in it. While scrubs like this can leave residue on skin (and I don't like residue on my body as long as products are truly natural), this doesn't. It washes off completely clean and will leave skin smooth and velvety! Well done, Seppälä!

While the weather is hectic and can't decide which it wants to be, warm or cold, sunny or rainy, my skin doesn't like this! And it takes everything out on me, like I could choose the right temperature for it. While my skin gets drier I always look into balancing products as I don't want to suffocate my skin with heavy creams when not needed. This Kris D'Amour Balancing Facial Treatment Oil has become handy to me when handling my skin's moods. I have used it only for couple of days, but I already see and feel improvement as my skin isn't so dry around my nose an mouth anymore. It has been formulated for oily, combination and acne prone skin so it should also sort out few break outs I have. I am especially impressed my the ingredient list it has: oils of jojoba, hazelnut, tamanu, seabuckthorn, apple seed, grape seed, juniper berry, lavender, petitgrain, patchouli and extracts of green, red and white teas. All to balance, nourish, hydrate and decongest the skin. Also in love with its comforting warm blend of scents I look forward to smelling whenever I use it.

Filorga BB-Perfect Anti-Aging Beauty Balm has been amazing to me in those two days I have used it! It covers well, better than other BB-creams I have tried and yet looks like you aren't wearing a makeup on your skin. Healthy dewy finish with the moisturising properties guaranteed! My 'radiant beige' shade adapts with my own skin tone perfectly and leaves it definitely brighter and more radiant. Feels almost like putting a good moisturiser on and getting the corrective part as a good surprise.

Garnier Ultra Doux Honey Treasures Shampoo and Conditioner are something I got sent as a gift and  otherwise probably wouldn't have these in my hands. Recently I have tried to take care of my hair with more gentler and natural products and Garnier isn't exactly pure. Also I am aware that sometimes really good hair products aren't 100% pure. A lot of times I am also guilty of choosing the ones that work well and aren't natural. With an open mind, I used these yesterday for the first time. They smell like milk and honey and are both really creamy and easy to use. No residue left into hair, really easy to wash out and totally fuzz free when it comes to using them. I actually liked them after one use and am sure to try them out for a little longer. They left my hair smooth and stronger. Not much to say about the nourishing part as I still needed to use my hair serum afterwards, but the strength of the hair is noticeable! Great for a basic hair care when you don't want to use loads of products, but still want great results.

Biosolis Self Tanning Spray is more like milk that comes out from a spray bottle. The thing I love the most about it is that is certified organic products with EcoCert and BIO labels on it. It has light yellow texture which makes it easy to apply, doesn't smell at any stage of self tanning and gives most natural tan on face and body within one use. You will look like you are slightly sun-kissed, nothing extreme and major at all! Actually it was a refreshing experience to use a product like this, you don't have to be scared of orange or weird shades and streaks. It can be made more intense and darker with re-applying the next day. Huge plus, it won't clog pores and even though I have used it once only I will get more into it and probably will notice even more benefits of it. I am happy with this product as it is hard to find an organic self-tanner that is actually good!

This post came out longer than I was prepared, but oh well! Have you got something new in your beauty stash you just got and is waiting for you to dive into it or just started to use?

When I think of vitamins, I immediately think of citruses. Jovely Naturals has put two of the most favourite fruits, grapefruit and orange, in a nurturing body scrub. Of course, these have been introduced into scrub in a form of essential oil, but still I do love a zesty aroma this body scrub has. The fresh and crisp scent of grapefruit and orange has been toned down with the sweetness of moisturising shea butter and exfoliating sugar, making this scrub a perfect combination for a natural body exfoliation.

This pinkish orange toned Jovely Naturals Grapefruit & Orange Shea Sugar Scrub has also been infused with red clay and sweet almond oil to take care of the skin while getting rid of dead skin cells. Scrub itself is very soft and gentle, but little sugar pieces still make a great job at scrubbing anything unwanted off your body. When skin is wet, sugar in this product will start to melt pretty soon and forms a creamy layer on your skin with the oils in it. This is one of those scrubs, that not only does it scrub your skin, but also acts as a body moisturiser. Afterwards you are left with smooth skin that has a  light layer of shea butter and sweet almond oil on it and you can slightly feel the delicate scent of the grapefruit and orange. 

I usually don't wash my skin after scrubbing with it, because my skin could use the nurturing moisture I get out of this product. After all, it isn't greasy, but soft and velvety. If you happen to have oilier skin, you can go over your skin with a body wash or soap and your skin will be squeaky clean and throughoutly exfoliated.

As a bonus, this scrub will give you a refreshing aroma therapy whenever you feel down or not so good. After you have done with scrubbing, sweetly fresh scent will linger in bathroom for quite some time!

Meet Frank! He loves skin and sure does love taking care of it. Frank comes in three variations. Mine is with Coconut & Grapeseed. Frank knows everything about your body and what it needs to be beautiful healthy and glowing. He is also pretty wise for a coffee scrub. One of his most known life truth is that you have to get dirty before getting clean. That's true, because Frank will get you dirty! But it is all so worth it when you wash it off afterwards, but your Frank in your bathroom cabinet to wait your another date with him. He is a keeper and waits patiently, because he loves you and your skin.

I am sure you already got it, that this a body scrub. But not a regular body scrub! This is a coffee scrub that targets any skin problem you might have. It is especially good with cellulite, acne, stretch marks, psoriasis, eczema, flakiness etc. It has been made of roasted and fround robusta coffee beans along with brown sugar and sea salt. As I said, mine is a Grapeseed and Coconut one which has been infused with grapeseed oil, coconut oil and jojoba beads to get extremely smooth exfoliation and perfection for your skin.

When you open the packaging you can smell the fresh coconut immediately and it slowly fills up your entire bathroom with the exotic aroma. The scrub itself is on the drier side and very concentrated, so you don't need much for the one scrub session. I start from my feet and move up towards my heart. Then I let it work its magic on my skin for 5-10 minutes and afterwards I will have the most hydrated and smooth skin ever. My skin isn't overly sensitive, so I sometimes let the Frank to do his magic also on my face. It fades post acne marks, evens the skin tone in general, fades scarring and boosts up your mood! Me as a coffee lover am absolutely in love with my Frank. And you can't blame me, it is amazing and I am powerless when it comes to this scrub. I am also guilty of sometimes leaving my bathroom door open when I am scrubbing with Frank. Just to make sure that the divine coconut-coffee aroma lingers through my apartment.

Frank also never lets me down when it comes to my self-tanning. I always make sure before to scrub every inch and corner on my body, to avoid uneven tan. This takes some extra time and gets frustrating if I still fail in the end! Frank makes scrubbing so easy, so you don't have to work so hard to get your skin prepared for tan. He does most of the job for you! You should have moisturised and hydrated skin before applying self-tanner, right? Frank does this too! When you step out of the shower, you are left with the skin that has been already moisturised by this miracle worker.

Frank is also known for helping people all over the world, with minor and more serious skin problems and conditions. He sure does love making people comfortable in their own skin and feeling happy. Look up the variety of before and after shots of hardworking Frank's results on his Instagram in here.

You like it? His mine! Get yourself your own Frank!

Since I have pretty much ditched shower gels I am always looking for natural soaps and I usually have to have huge selection of them. Handmade soaps can be so special, comforting and beneficial for your skin. You can never have too many of them. I tried Jovely Naturals Exfoliating Coffee Soap which is 100% natural and made in Estonia by hand using only natural oils.

Time for another 'beauty favourites' post. While I have been using so much new and great products lately that I haven't talked about yet, I needed to cut down the amount of products I love and bring you the best of my favourites. So these thing made the cut, are totally trustworthy and basically my heroes when it comes to beauty care. Again, I must admit that I have undetectably become a junkie and an addict for natural beauty products. While I do have some things in my beauty stash that aren't completely natural, I noticed that these are mostly natural and safe to use for everyone. 

Organic Surge Moisture Boost Shampoo and Conditioner are both the products that surprised me the most. These are so affordable and free of all the nasty stuff that aren't good for your hair. Shampoo is so gentle yet lathers well and cleans hair like nobody's business. It is enriched with aloe vera, olive leaf and grape vine extracts that keep hair moisturised and silky. Lemon peel extract seals the hair cuticle to maintain its shine and keep hair frizz free. Thyme and fennel seed extracts work to strengthen and prevent breakage. While shampoo cleanses without stripping hair, conditioner is with its thickness and creamy texture hydrates and nourishes even the driest locks. I am so pleased with these products and have managed to get my hair into better condition than I have ever dreamed.

Unique Haircare Leave-In Conditioner is a certified organic spray conditioner with a low pH-value and milk proteins that protect every individual hair strand from heat stress, colour fading and environmental damage. I truly recommend it to everyone, but especially to people who need to improve their hair condition, lock in moisture, but are worried about their hair weighing down or going flat. This adds perfect amount of luxurious moisture and strength to hair, but also gives surprisingly great volume and body to it. I have used it in damp hair before styling and in dry hair when I need to refresh my locks between washes. Both ways work wonders!

Vestige Verdant Face Mask is a miracle in a jar. It is produced in my own little home country, Estonia and has become a huge thing in here. I can't argue with the fact that it is amazing! It comes in huge jar that lasts basically months and months. It can be used daily and is suitable for every skin type and skin condition as it has so many benefits. It deep cleanses and moisturises, improves skin texture, revives blood circulation, heals allergies and overly sensitive skin, diminishes acne, relieves stress and restores natural pH balance of skin. As has only organic minerals and bioactive humic acid I truly believe in every statement this mask has made! It goes on smooth, looks absolutely black and starts to itch on skin soon after waiting around. You can actually feel it working and pulling all the nastiness out of your skin. It is messy to remove, but not impossible. I have found it is best to wash it off in the shower so this has become my daily face routine just before getting into shower. My skin has become a lot clearer, smoother and balanced since I have used it regularly.

Selexir Peace Balm has been my another must have wonder product when it comes to skin care. It is and intensive cosmetic salve that specifically soothes distressed, irritated and sensitive skin areas. Its formula is bursting with goodness as it contains 21 highly concentrated natural ingredients. It improves skin's texture, balances its hydration levels and strengthens skin's natural barrier. I have used it around my mouth which was my problem area when temperature changes got the best out of my skin. I have also used it on cracked hands and lips just before going to bed and woken up to perfectly healed skin. I am especially impressed with the amount of time it works. You literally apply tiniest amount of it on your problem area and wake up to beautifully healed skin in the morning!

NOVExpert Eye Contour Care is a moisturising lifting and decongesting eye cream with hyaluronic acid, cucumber extracts and cornflower in it. It is deeply hydrating, yet so light and absorbs fast without laving any residue on the eye area. It has significally reduced my dark circles and promises also to combat any puffiness and dryness. It relieves redness and discomfort when I have my common spring time allergies and feels comforting in the morning right after waking up. I also love the fact that it is hypoallergenic and 100% natural.

I do plan doing a full detailed reviews on some of these products, so bare with me. When you want me to write a review on the product that got your attention, just let me know!

Here are my favourite beauty products I have been reaching for oh so often lately. I haven't used too much makeup or if I have it has been simple and light for my skin's pleasure. Most of these are on its last legs, so that proves the point that I have enjoyed them very much indeed.

Senna Cosmetics Powder Point Brush from the summer collection. It is so silky and soft on skin and therefore you won't even need any additional effort when applying blusher, bronzer, highlighter or simple powder. I use it for the blusher or bronzer and love it!

BeYu Eyebrow Gel is the one an only brow product I have been using for taming and styling by eyebrows. It holds a perfect light brown gel inside which isn't too waxy or sticky. Brushing through your eyebrows is so underrated and should be done more as it gives naturally polished look.

Maybelline Color Tattoo Cream Eyeshadow in Permanent Taupe is a matte long lasting cream shadow that would suit most of the people. It gives perfect swipe of contouring shade to the eyelids that stays put like no ones business. I also like that this is best when applied with fingers, that makes makeup routine so much more easier.

Clinique Almost Lipstick in Flirty Honey is a lipstick I got from Clinique Almost Lipsticks set that included four of them. This particular shade is a true sheer pink and gives that 'your lips, but better' shade. It doesn't feel sticky or heavy, but more like wearing moisturising lip balm with excellent colour.

Weleda Pomegranate Regenerating Hand Cream is like a dream come true in a hand cream world. It smells no naturally like a pomegranate mixed with roses. I sometimes keep applying it just because of the scent of it. It moisturises like a wonder product would do and leaves skin softly hydrated for a long time.

The Body Shop Moringa Body Butter is the most feminine of them all. It contains moisturising shea butter that leaves skin moisturised and smelling delicately floral after every use. This has been and is my most favourite scent of The Body Shop butters.

ESPA Refining Skin Polish is a natural brightening skin exfoliator for deep cleansing and smoothing. I have this in a travel size yet I have gotten quite much use out of it. It acts like a natural microdermabrasion leaving skin smoother than any other face scrubs I have used. That said it should be used in moderation and small amount goes a long way.

Ingli Pai Sea Mud Mask is a natural face mask made by Estonian skin care company that makes 100% natural products. This particular face mask has been developed for a skin with enlarged pores. It contains natural sea mud and essential oils of cypress, chamomile and lemon. It smells really harsh like a real sea mud would do, but I got used to it. I like the fact that it is so powerful and draws out even the most stubborn impurities, leaving pores much smaller afterwards.

Dr Bragi Marine Enzyme Age Management Moisturiser is a wonder product I did full review on recently and absolutely adore. It moisturises, purifies, smoothes, heals, hydrates and brightens.

Dry cuticles are not nice to have nor nice to watch. When it comes to doing daily chores around the house or constantly using hand sanitisers when outside, it can be pretty damaging to the hands and especially your cuticles. Many people are constantly struggling with brittle and weak nails and invest in expensive treatment polishes, but you should really take more care of the area around your nails. Cuticle area is actually where your nail bed grows out of so you must pay extra attention to it when you want to have beautiful strong nails.

I have often found that regular hand cream doesn't cut it for me and I need something more heavy and wax based to protect and treat my nails and skin around them.

This is where Burt's Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream comes into play. It is completely affordably handy to have and comes in handy metal tin. Its key ingredient is a lemon peel oil which smells so freshly clean and natural. Containing all the other natural stuff including sweet almond oil, beeswax, rosemary, cocoa seed butter etc it forms a thicker salve which melts immediately with the warmth of your body into moisturising balm. 

As it is very moisturising and intensive a tiny amount goes very long way. First it may leave thin residue on cuticles but it disappears within few minutes while it soaks in, leaving behind perfectly smooth and nourished nail area. Perfect for using at home or on the go.

It is still great summer going on here and that affect definitely my wish list, where everything looks light and bright. I have been lurking on ASOS so much lately and therefore many of my beauty wishes happen to be from their selection. Another wonderful and very comparable website is Siison. I have talked about it before and get regularly so many good ideas from there.

1. OSKIA Skincare Bedtime Beauty Boost, is a nutri-active regenerating and nourishing night cream. I love night treatments as they are highly effective and I love them even more when they are natural and full of minerals, vitamins, omegas, essential oils and peptides just like this one.

2. Sleek Makeup True Colour Lipstick in Peaches and Cream, looks like a perfect bright coral nude lipstick. I have heard that Sleek lipsticks are so pigmented, long lasting and true to colour. No wonder it is tempting me every since I know its existence.

3. Ted Baker Treasured Orchid Makeup Bag, is a floral printed, has a glossy finish, zipper and even smaller inner compartment. Ted Baker knows the world of makeup bags and is always creating new and prettier ones.

4. Moshi Wild Mango Body Scrub is made in Estonia and extremely nourishing smoothing for your skin. It has a sea buckthorn oil full of vitamins and smoothing sugar for extra sweet body exfoliation. Plus it promises to leave body delicious and silky!

5. L'occitane Angelica Protective Lotion SPF 15 is a fresh light textured moisturising day lotion infused with real organic angelica from France. I can imagine how perfect it would be for morning skin routine with its freshness, protectiveness and boosting effect.

6. Bourjois Cream Blush in Nude Velvet looks like a perfect nude coraly pink shade. I am more and more into cream blushes and can't fancy them enough. They are fuss free to apply, stay on very natural and leave such a polished look on cheekbones. 

7. Rimmel Scandaleyes Waterproof Kohl Liner in Nude is a creamy long lasting liner in a variation of colours. I would opt for a nude shade to brighten up the eye area and waterline whenever needed.

8. The Balm Shady Lady Vol 2 Eyeshadow Palette. Apart from cutest packaging The Balm tends to have wonderful quality and colour payoff so this eyeshadow palette would be amazing for autumn. These shades are perfect for everything: from neutral eye to more dramatic look.

9. Jenoris Pistachio Oil Hair Treatment is full of Omegas, vitamins and fatty acids. Perfect for frizzy dry hair as a pre styling product or nourishing oil treatment before washing your hair.

10. SteamCream 3in1 Moisturiser Scarlet Tin is a lightweight all purpose moisturiser in a sleek handy tin. All SteamCream moisturisers are handmade from unrefined steam and floral extracts. Not to mention that all their tins are to die for!

Lately I have been going through things like crazy and that means another 'empties' post for my blog. Some of these I have done a proper review on and I won't stop on them for too long.

Dove Essential Nourishment Hand Cream is a pretty plain hand cream full of chemicals. Although I didn't enjoy it much I used it up and it took me quite some time. I was expecting a deep nourishment from it, but it did nourish my hands only temporarily. This is definitely a product your hands could get addicted to and I mean it in a bad way. It is so bad that Dove doesn't want to put ingredients on their webpage.

Marc Jacobs Daisy In The Air is a simply divine perfume. It is fresh, floral but in a delicate way. And can we please talk about the bottle? It would decorate anybody's beauty table! I did a full review on it for a while ago.

AEOS Refreshing Hydrating Mist is an organic face mist full of biodynamic essential oils, plant extracts and real gems and crystals. It smells light, floral and super energising! It has been a huge relief for me on hot humid days when I needed a refreshment. My skin was always so soft, glowing and comfortable afterwards. Even though it is quite pricey it is a huge good quality glass bottle you can't miss out on.

Maybelline Colossal Volum' Express Smoky Eyes Macara was a mascara I thought would be good. Instead it was just average. I have seen worse, but also have seen better! It flaked on me pretty bad after a long day and the tube died out pretty fast. Huge plus was blackness of it and quite big brush which gets lashes voluminous with few strokes.

Clayspray Hydrate H20 Spray Mineral Water is mineral rich mountain spring water that treats skin with instant moisture. I used it with my Clayspray clay mask, but I ran out of this spray before I even got finished with my mask bottle. It did feel very good and relieving on skin! I also have a full review on this water spray.

Circaroma Replenishing Hand Cream, so this is a hand cream you can call a real hand cream! It is perfect to achieve permanently soft and smooth hands. It has so much goodness in it and smells just like wild rose flowers. More on this cream is available in my review on it.

Viridian Clear Skin Complex is natural organic supplements that supposed to be good for any skin problems from acne, eczema, aging, pigmentation etc. It has a lot of good probiotic bacteria in it along with much needed minerals, antioxidants and omegas. I didn't notice tremendous difference in my skin, but I did notice a lot more toxins getting out of my system and digestion getting better when using it. I would definitely use it again when I need to cleanse.

Yes! Nurse story begins with one busy pair of dry, sore and cracked hands of a young pediatric nurse. She tried to combat her hand problems with so many creams, yet nothing worked. So she developed and co-found this protective hand cream with the guidance of many nurses across UK to put an end to the never ending route of constant dryness that daily routines of a nurse work causes.

I can't put my finger on the scent because I think there is mixture of everything. Most of all I sense almonds and honey but not in a sweetish way, it also has some freshness to it. Scent of it is recognizable on application, but fades away pretty quickly. I personally don't mind that but it also wouldn't bother me if the sent stayed as it is very pleasant and gentle.

Like I passingly mentioned before it isn't greasy, absorbs really fast, gives extremely hydrating and protective barrier to the skin. It is a wonderful hand cream to everybody, but suits so well to hands that are always busy working or just stressed out.

I just wish they would do a similar body cream, that would be simply divine!

This body butter is perfect summer body cream in so many ways. First of all it is very light and feels almost like a lotion, but is still butter by its texture. It smells so summery and fresh like freshly picked raspberries from the garden. Yet is not something that is too heavy and overpowering, so you still could feel the summer breeze when wearing it as it doesn't smother you with its scent.

Also it is amazingly cheap for the amount you get! It is the exact same size of a jar you are used to see when buying some well known more expensive body butters out there.

Every scent of Treacle Moon has its own story on the packaging which makes it just that more interesting than any other brand. Also it says on the back that even if you would want to eat it is only meant for your body. Can't blame them for that as it smells delicious!

I always need loads of body butter in the summer as I am on the go, swimming, sunbathing on the sand or always taking those extra showers to cool myself off. In order to keep my body moisturised without that heaviness of thick body butters. Wintery body creams just don't cut it anymore and getting a product like this with so reasonable price definitely helps!

Treacle Moon Raspberry Kiss range is available in here.
