I know I’m not the only one who’s excited about these new products from Mádara. I gave away and recommended my friend to try my favorite cream, and she keeps sending me pictures of her perfect skin and gave up foundation do to my generous gift ;). Both me and my dear friend are now ready to face the world looking fresh and clean without having to cover up. It’s interesting how it works so well on both of us, despite our completely different skin types.

The cream I’m talking about is Daily Defend cream by Noora Shingler, now available with a new scent of fresh nettle as well as a refreshing mist. This cream is developed especially for sensitive skin and harsh and changing weather conditions. What I love about it is that is smells heavenly, absorbs very quickly into the skin, still leaving my skin feeling moisturized and smooth. I think it’s brilliant to bring on trips because it can be used both day and night and all over the body, face and hands.

The refreshing nettle mist calms, moisturizes and soothes the skin and is suitable for the entire family. Both products are of course organic, natural, vegan and not tested on animals.

Clean Cleaner The Organic Pharmacy

Beauty,Health,19 July 2015

Some time ago I got a very luxurious delivery sent to me and after reading about The Organic Pharmacy and their fantastic reputation I couldn’t wait to rip open the packages and test these bottles containing pure perfection. After using these for a while now I really want to recommend this extremely clean and selective high quality brand The Organic Pharmacy.

Here are my three favorites right now: Rose & Bilberry Toning Gel, Virgin Cold Pressed Rose Hip Oil and Cellular Protection Sun Cream.

This Toning Gel is applied on damp skin after cleansing by damping it gently into the skin. I find a great toner to be one of the most important steps in my daily cleansing rituals since I think it refreshes and hydrates my skin after the most rough phase, cleansing. This rosy toner as well as my absolute favorite product The Rose Hip Oil smell absolutely divine!

All products are free from preservatives, colourants, fragrances and petrochemicals.

Virgin Cold Pressed Rose Hip Oil is rich in antioxidants, essential fatty acids and vitamins and made out of 99.95% organic ingredients. This oil reduces signs of fine lines, scars and stretch marks and I apply it a little bit here and there but it is the perfect luxury boost for my face.

As a very sun sensitive and careful person I still have to admit that I really dislike feeling greasy and all creamed up in not natural sunscreens, since I am so picky when it comes to skin care and the products that I use. Even the products from regular pharmacies are not always natural and clean, so this particular bottle has become a new must have during the summer.

The Organic Pharmacy has many more great products but these three have become my favorites and suit my sensitive and dry-ish skin very well.
