All Natural Skincare: A Switch-Up.

I recently mentioned that in an attempt to clear up my skin, I’d been using only natural skincare brands. I guess over the years my skincare routine had been leaning towards this, but I have to admit it did take me a while to make the switch. In just a few weeks of only using good natural brands, my acne has completely cleared up – which is quite something, considering even the antibiotics weren’t working.

I thought I would introduce a few natural brands I’ve been using lately – and the products I’ve been loving too, of course.

Pai Skincare
So in all fairness, I’ve loved Pai as a brand since I first discovered them a year or too ago, but I’ve definitely upped my skincare game in recent weeks. This is mainly due to the release of their new serums – there’s the Pai Perfect Balance Blemish Serum (£42) and the Instant Calm Redness Serum (£42) – both are formulated using only the most natural, skin-loving ingredients. I’ve been using the blemish serum at night and the calming serum during the day – I honestly think these two products have worked miracles on my skin! The blemish serum is just beautiful, it leaves my skin feeling so soft and my spots are clearing up at a rapid rate. The calming serum is ideal for morning as it soothes red and irritated skin, really working wonders on my red, angry complexion. They’re the dream team.

One Love Organics
I’ve only tried one or two products from One Love Organics, but I’ve already got a couple of items on my wishlist – and it’s not just for the pretty packaging! The One Love Organics Brand New Day Scrub & Masque (£34) is just amazing, it comes in powder form (the above is a sample size you can buy for around £8) and you can either mix it with water to create a gentle but seriously effective face scrub, or mix with yoghurt for a calming, decongesting and hydrating face mask. It works wonders, and will last so long too.

Melvita
Melvita are a brand I’ve only recently got in to, but I’ve completely become obsessed with their no-fuss products. At the moment I’m using the Melvita Jeunesse Extraordinary Water (£22), a lovely toner that helps to hydrate and plump skin, leaving it super soft and supple. I’ve heard so many good things about this toner, and I really swear by toners in my routine, so I’ve been excitedly slapping it on where possible – morning and night! It’s just a beautiful step in my routine, and it’s really helping my skin to look its best. Any recommendations of other Melvita products would be super helpful!

Weleda
Again, Melvita are a brand I’ve heard so much about but never really tried. They have such a good range of products, so I’ve been using a couple of their releases – and already I’m hooked! I love the Soothing Almond Cleansing Lotion (£9.65) in the evening to remove my makeup, it feels lovely and removes every trace. I also have the Weleda Purifying Lotion (£9.65), which helps to clear up blemishes and leave the skin looking its best. I think this is one of my favourite skincare discoveries as it actually works without stripping or drying my skin.

REN Skincare
Of course, I had to give a little mention to REN – a brand I’ve been using for years now. I consider the Flash Rinse 1 Minute Facial (£32) one of my favourite skincare releases of the year. This is a quick-action serum that you massage in to skin, add a little water to activate and then leave on the skin to work its magic – in just one minute. It brightens and plumps and really evens out the complexion. Definitely one to put on your wishlist!

I don’t see my all-natural obsession ending any time soon – any recommendations for other brands and products to try?
