    If you've been reading and/or following this blog for a while, you'll know we're no stranger to a good Jurlique product around here. Every time I try something new from these guys, they continue to produce the goods and I'm yet to be disappointed by anything that has crossed my path. Today I've got a few more newer products to share from the Herbal Recovery range.

    Signature Moisturising Cream
    One product I could never ever go without; a good moisturiser. This cream will help to smooth out lines and wrinkles, while using Cedar Bud extract to help increase the suppleness of your skin and help it to hold on to that oh so important moisturise. This cream also contains Citrus Unshiu Peel extract which helps to give your skin a more even tone. With a refreshing floral scent, while at first this feels like a thicker cream that might be best for night time use, as you rub and work it into the skin, it ends up feeling quite light weight and is a day time favourite for me.

    Signature Eye Gel
    Now that I'm working pretty much seven days a week (though I love it), having some type of eye product handy is essential to help keep my under-eyes hydrated and to stop me from looking as tried as I might feel at times. This ultra light gel aims to brighten, firm and smooth your under-eyes and uses potent farm-grown botanicals to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The gel has a lovely rose scent and it dries super quickly, so it's perfect to use in the morning before putting on makeup.

    Signature Serum
    Say goodbye to dull looking skin and soften those fine lines and wrinkles with the Signature Serum.
    With the same lovely rose scent as the eye gel, a little goes a long way. The light weight formula sinks into the skin fairly quickly, so it's great for daytime use before putting on your makeup. The Red Clover Flower extract helps enhance the hydration provided by the Hyaluronic Acid and once absorbed, it creates a protective film on the surface of your skin to keep it looking and feeling fresh all day long.

    Help Your Skin Win with Jurlique

    Keep your skincare game strong with some of these new and returning favourite products.

    Genie Beauty Instant Line Smoother

    I actually first encountered Genie Beauty products back in 2017 when I reviewed both this product and the Dream Cream (see below). I wrote about my first impressions on using this product here when I was using primer under my makeup. I don't ever reach for primer anymore and while on first impression I did find this product to have a nice consistency that wasn't to thick or to runny and sunk into my skin quite easily without leaving me feeling oily, from memory as I used it over time I found some of my foundations had trouble blending into my skin properly when I applied this. While I'm not someone who ever reachers for primers anymore and therefore couldn't give out recommendations on good ones to use, with this one I would probably say try picking up something else instead before giving this a go.

    Genie Beauty Dream Cream

    While I may not have gotten along with the Instant Line Smoother, the Dream Cream from Genie Beauty was a different story. I first reviewed this product back here and I still enjoy it as much today. I prefer to use this cream at night and quite enjoy the caramel-esque scent to it. This sunk nice and quickly into my skin and certainly kept my face feeling hydrated throughout the night until morning. This hydration is thanks to the number of powerful active ingredients packed inside like Matrixyl 3000 peptides, beta glucan, alpha lipoic and hyalauronic acid.

    Jurlique Lavender Hydrating Mist

    What would a new in beauty post be from me without some Jurlique products to talk about. These guys certainly keep me stocked up and I'm always excited to give their new products a go. I've always been a fan of their classic rose scented Hydrating Mist, but if rose isn't your cup of tea Jurlique have brought out a new range of scents. The first is a Lavender one which, you guessed it, smells like lavender. The scent is certainly strong so definitely only reach for this if you're a lavender lover. I think this makes the perfect night time mist to help sooth you into sleep.

    Jurlique Violet & Grapefruit Hydrating Mist

    Another new scent in their new Hydrating Mist range is Violet & Grapefruit. If you love something that smells a little bit sweeter but isn't super overpowering, then I'm pretty sure you're going to love this one.

    New Bits and Bobs (ft Jurlique & Genie Beauty)
    posted by . 6/27/19 .


    A brand that needs no introduction on this blog; Jurlique are back with some more awesome products to make your skin feel and smell amazing, in particular, your hands.

    Limited Edition Fragrant Rose Hand Cream
    Your hands will be thanking you after getting an intense hit of hydration from this product, especially during these cooler months. With Rosa gallica Flower Extract, this cream will help to nourish and protect your skin from environmental aggressors, while the rose fragrance will help to leave your hands feeling velvety smooth. This hand cream is a little thicker, however it still sinks in really nicely. It does have their classic strong rose scent, but I found that the scent wore off my hands over time. 

    Restoring Hand Lotion / Lemon, Geranium & Clary Sage
    Compared to the previous product, this cream is on the thinner side and I found it super easy to rub into the skin; perfect for when you just need a quick fix. You can certainly smell the geranium and sage, but I didn't mind it. This lotions contains Marshmallow Root, Pansy and Echinacea which helps to smooth and hydrate your skin, as well as protect your hands against any environmental nasties.


     Restoring Hand Wash / Lemon, Geranium & Clary Sage
    With Marshmallow Root, calming Chamomile and purifying Echinacea, this hand wash won't dry our out skin like some others can, but will help to soften them, while also cleaning and leaving them feeling refreshed. As you can figure from the name, this has the same scent as the previous hand lotion. Also can we take a moment for the cute bottle that will look good in anyones bathroom.

    Latest from Jurlique
    posted by . 4/16/19 .


    There's a been a good mix of products coming through the mail lately, so I wanted to share some of my favourite bits and pieces that I've received.

    Jurlique Rosewater Balancing Mist Intense Deluxe Edition

    I've previously talked about this product a couple of times on my blog before. This product takes their regular Balancing Mist and combines it with a blend of four unique Rose extracts that will allow the product to not only hydrate and refresh your skin but uplift your mood and relax your mind at the same time - the perfect thing for a stressful day. I always like to use their Mist as a part of my skincare routine as a toner so I get a good hit of hydration (and now relaxation) each morning and night.

    This skincare brand has quickly become one of my favourite. While I know they sit on the more expensive side of the scale, every time I use their products my skin reacts so well and always looks its best when I have one of their products in rotation in my skincare routine.
    This is their original hyaluronic acid serum but supercharged! This product combines their original formula with Natural Moisturising Factors including sodium PCA, glycerin, urea, proteins, sugars, amino acids, lactic acid, hyaluronic acid, creatine and more to give your skin a real hydration boost.
    I found this product to be a thicker type of serum but still super easy to spread. It feels very hydrating and gives a cooling sensation on the skin as it sinks in nicely. It also didn't have any scent that I noticed.


    Bobbi Brown Crushed Liquid Lip

    If you ever need a solid lip product, I've found you can't go past Bobbi Brown. Their new Crushed Liquid Lip is basically a hybrid of a liquid lip, a balm and a lip gloss and they are also paraben-free, phthalate-free, sulfite-free, talc-free, mineral oil-free and gluten-free. The lovely team sent me three shades and I honestly loved all of them - Juicy Date for a more natural, everyday type of shade, Bitter Sweet as a nice way to add a pop of interesting colour without being overly bold and Cherry Crush for a nice classic and striking red. I found all of them applied smoothy and evenly and dry down well without feeling super drying on the lips and as if they might crack.

    New Beauty Bits (ft Bobbie Brown, Medki8 & Jurlique)
    posted by . 3/7/19 .


    I know there was a bit of a brief pause in between blog posts there; life has certainly busy. But to brings them back I'm kicking things off with some wonderful products that I've had with me for a little while now that I wanted to share with you all - some tried, tested and loved brands to showcase this time around.


    Jurlique Softening Rose Body Cream

    The Jurlique Softening Rose Body Cream contains rosa gallica extract, avocado oil and shea butter to help restore softness to your skin and also leave it looking smoother. It also contains Beeswax and Sesame seed oil which helps to replenish the skin’s protective barrier. As with all their products, the rose scent is quite strong. I personally don't mind it but as always, those who aren't a fan of scented products probably won't get along with this one. I found this cream dries into the skin super quickly and isn't to thick, but still leaves the skin feeling nice and hydrated and smooth.

    Jurlique Softening Rose Body Cleansing Cream

    If you've ever used the Dove Moisturising shower gel product then this is like that but 10 times better. As a girl who already has so many steps to complete in the bathroom, if I can get two done at once I'm all for it. The cream only leaves a slight scent of rose on the skin after washing off and my skin definitely feels more moisturised afterwards compared to when using a normal shower gel. It is enriched with botanical oils including Macadamia Oil and Shea Butter which help to rebalance dryness and restore that precious moisture to your skin. It is also a soap-free formula, so it's gentle on the skin and won't strip away natural oils. 

    Moments4Me Anti-Ageing Face Mask

    This isn't the first time I've tried face masks from Moments4Me and I have to say they never disappoint. This mask left me skin feeling so soft and hydrated. I used this after a weekend of camping and not washing my face properly, along with a clay mask, to try and stop my face from breaking out - the next day my skin was calm and looked refreshed. This mask in particular contains hydrolyzed wheat proteins, marine collagen, oligosaccharides of Chicory roots and Laminaria algae derivative, which help to produce a lifting effect on the skin and improve elasticity, while also moisturising.

    Moments4Me Brightening Face Mask

    This mask is formulated from alpine plants that provide lightening and antioxidant properties which allow the mask to help restore balance and illumination to your complexion. It also helps to reduce pigment spots and restore freshness and radiance to your skin. I found using this mask certainly left me feeling refreshed and my skin just felt nice and clean, smooth and also hydrated. I think sometimes our skin, especially on your face, can do with a little extra boost of some nourishing ingredients every now and then, and this is a great product for it.

    Bioderma Photoderm BB Cream

    To me, this stuff just smells like sunscreen, which I'm not a big fan of unless I'm actually heading to the beach. This has a sheer coverage as you'd expect from a BB cream,  but I found it very, very sheer. Where I placed it on the skin it felt quite soft but a lot of the product seemed to sink straight into my skin. If you'd like to have a little coverage when heading somewhere like the beach, then this would probably be great for you. Honestly when I'm off somewhere like that I just can't be bothered with makeup and if I'm bothering to wear it, it's because I want coverage, so I don't really find myself reaching for this product ever. However, depending on what you prefer to have on your skin this could be a great option for you. Also, an FYI, this product is fragrance free, paragon free, hypoallergenic and formulated with anti UVA UVB dermatological filters to keep your skin protected from harmful UV rays.

    Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench Croud Cream Cleanser


    This cleanser from Peter Thomas Roth is a non-stripping, fragrance-free cream cleanser that aims to maintain your skin’s moisture levels to give you a more radiant and youthful-looking complexion. The Hyaluronic Acid it contains helps your skin to attract and retain up to 1,000 times its weight in water from moisture in the atmosphere. Also, the Sodium PCA and Coconut Oil within the product will nourish your skin, while the Marshmallow Root Extract will allow it to soften and soothe. This product has a cool metallic white colour to it and I found it doesn't foam up quite a lot, but you can still feel it working. It feels nice on the skin and it didn't leave me feeling dry afterwards. The scent isn't exactly my favourite but like with most cleansers, it doesn't linger once washed off so it's nothing I can't deal with. 


    Peter Thomas Roth Water Drnech Hyaluonic Cloud Cream Hydrating Moisturiser
    I've had a full size of those before and I loved it! The name of this product is probably giving you a visualisation of hydrated and soft, touchable skin, which is exactly what this moisturiser will help you to achieve. This super hydrating cream will give your skin an intense burst of hydration which can last for up to 72 hours. I however like to use this product at night and let it sink into my skin as I sleep. As I wash my face each morning, it doesn't get the chance to be on there for 72 hours, but something like this would be a lifesaver for a long plane trip or to fight the drying effects a bitterly cold wind.

    A Bunch of Beauty (ft Jurlique, Bioderma, Peter Thomas Roth and more)
    posted by . 1/24/19 .


    Rose-scented fans abound; Jurlique is the brand calling your name. I'm certainly no stranger to this brand and always love when some of their products turn up in my mail. To celebrate their goodness, Jurlique have released a Limited Edition Iconic Collection (available exclusively to Australia) that contains - you guessed it - some of their most iconic products. Some of these I've had before and some I haven't, so I wanted to share what is inside this handy dandy collection with you.

    Rose Hand Cream
    I've previously talked about this hand cream on the blog before. I've found this cream has a fairly strong rose scent, so if you're not a fan of that or scents in general this probably isn't the one for you. The cream contains Rose Gallica Flower Extract which is grown at an organic farm in the South Australian hills and helps to restore moistures to your hands and keep them feeling silky smooth. I found this to be a little thicker then a lot of hand creams I've used, but it still sinks in really quickly and left my hands feeling really smooth.

    Achieving Water Essence
    This product adds an interesting additional step to your skincare routine. Applying this after toner and before serum, this essence contains pure Marshmallow Root to help give you an extra hit of hydration - so if you're someone who suffers with dry skin this extra little thing might just be what you need (this is also going to be great when those winter winds begin to roll in). I found this has quite a clean scent and dries in fairly quickly for a bit of extra hydration when I'm feeling particularly dry.

    Herbal Recovery Signature Serum
    This might be a little travel size serum but honestly a little goes a long way thanks to the runny formula. This product contains Red Clover Flower which helps to enhance the role of the Hyaluronic Acid in combating those annoying signs of ageing. It also has Advanced Gel Technology which means after application the product creates a protective film on the surface of your skin to help maintain hydration and prevent moisture loss. I found this didn't have their usually rose scent but smelt more clean and soap-like. It leaves the skin fairly soft after application but I would certainly still use a moisturiser afterwards

    Rosewater Balancing Mist
    I've also previously talked about this Balancing Mist when I was gifted the Limited Edition mega bottle. If you're looking for something to soothe your skin, make it feel refreshed, give it some hydration or all of the above, you need to get your hands on this stuff. This smaller size is also much more convent for any travellers out there.

    Aus Exclusive: Jurlique Limited Edition Iconic Collection
    posted by . 6/4/18 .


    Today we're talking all things Jurlique. If you haven't heard of Jurlique before, they are a skincare brand that originated in South Australia (yes to home-grown brands!). They create natural skincare with a strong focus on being kind to Mother Nature. To do this they have a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility called Jurlique's Natural Beauty Plant, where they use solar power, low voltage light, reuse water and more to keep their footprint on this earth minimal.

     Limited Edition Rosewater Balancing Mist
    This is the limited edition, deluxe version of Jurlique's amazing Balancing Mist. If you're looking for something to soothe your skin, make it feel refreshed, give it some hydration or all of the above, you need to get your hands on this stuff. If you're not a major rose-scent fan, maybe this isn't for you, but if you don't mind it or it doesn't bother, do yourself a favour and get your hands on this bad boy. This size might not be great for travel, but you'll be thanking yourself for the extra product when you get hooked on the stuff.

    I love this mask because you can use this for a variety of hydration needs. If you need a quick refresh you can pop this all over your skin for 10 minutes, wipe it off and whip out the door feeling ready to face the world. If you're needing something a little more intense (like me with this onset of cold wind lately) you can actually sleep in this stuff overnight to really tackle any dry skin issues. A big winner in my books this winter.


    Rose Moisture Plus Daily Moisture Balancing Serum
    You all know how much I love a good serum in my life and I've just found another to add to my list. This serum has helped to keep my skin tone looking on point and keep my skin looking bright while also keeping it hydrated and protected against environmental stresses and damage. All of Jurlique's products are also full of natural ingredients so you know everything your putting on your skin is only doing it good.


    If you're looking for a new lightweight moisturise to use during the day and as a part of your morning skincare routine, I'd suggest giving this product a go. This lotion helps keep my skin from drying out throughout the day, but being lightweight means it sits nicely under my makeup. Remember, you'll want to be a fan of rose scent, or at the very least not mind it, to use this range of products. If rose isn't your thing, Jurlique also have other lines of products for you to check out.
