1. Eco Refillable Carrot Butter Cleanser
This is a new offering of a very much improved product but it was certainly their Eco Refillable that grabbed my attention initially. So I was delighted to try this carrot butter cleanser from The Organic Pharmacy and impressed that this product has been made using post-consumer packaging rather than plastic, repurposing waste into renewed plastic fibres and making it into an entirely new refill product, with an extremely low carbon footprint. Now that’s a great start isn’t it? Over the years I’ve had a tricky time with cleansers as so many of them I found harsh and my skin felt stripped and tight after using. But what joy, not with this cleanser which is luxurious. It is so rich and creamy and of course it’s only after trying and testing it that I now understand why this carrot butter cleanser continues to be a consumer favourite. It’s suitable for all skin types and clinically proven to prevent free radical damage, so that’s another large tick from me.
All you have to do is take a walnut sized amount and simply massage onto your dry skin. The warmth of your hands allows the cleanser to melt into your skin and as it does so, it transforms into a silky soft oil. That oil then effortlessly melts away the impurities of dirt, pollution and makeup and this includes eye make-up too. After you have used your fingertips to work it gently across your face and eye area, then wipe away with a muslin cloth that you have dipped into hand hot water. This cleanser not only cleverly takes away the dirt from the day whilst boosting circulation it also acts as a decongestant – it is no wonder I loved it. Another confession that I must share with you, I also fell for the natural scent of the carrot and rosemary which along with the lavender and calendula, I found the mix to be very calming and soothing for my skin, no tightness with this one – yes! I’m so impressed that it is 99.9% organic, but obviously the most important step for me and you too is that this gives you a clean skin and a radiant complexion.
You can also help reduce your carbon impact by 70% by replenishing your Eco Refillable Carrot Butter Cleanser jar with their new refill pod. This is a winner in every way for me.

3. Antioxidant Face Serum
This antioxidant powerhouse features double the antioxidant power, which I found quite amazing. It is a radiant oil-serum blend that is packed with potent, skin-loving ingredients that helps your skin look lifted, toned with a lovely radiant, healthy glow as well. It also helps reverse sun damage and the appearance of wrinkles, so that I now understand why this serum has the nickname of the ‘instant face lift’. This serum felt like I was giving my dry skin a large drink of water and to be honest, I couldn’t believe that my skin looked youthful which is quite a bold statement from a cynical journalist! I also loved that serum was 98.7% organic, something that is becoming much more important to me.
Each morning and night, apply one pump to face, neck and décolleté after you have cleansed and toned. In the morning use before your protective moisturiser. This product along with the collagen face boost has made my face not only look younger but smelt good whilst doing it! Such great results with what a lovely glow on my face, making me feel much brighter!

5. Blemish Gel
This is a super gel that allows you to reduce spots and redness very quickly, but without drying or irritating your skin. It is lovely ultra-gentle gel that contains healing properties as well as antiseptic herbs and essential oils. It has been clinically proven for soothing and repairing efficacy. Just apply directly to blemishes between 2 – 5 times a day. I don’t think it will be just teenagers that will be relieved to find a product as effective as this blemish gel.
