In the midst of a lockdown, here at BC we are still beavering away to bring you the best of beauty, and this month we have five new arrivals for skin, body and hair which provide not only optimum results but a feeling of increased wellbeing and relaxation too! So read on to find out all about these new favourites of ours, and we promise you, like us, you’ll want to give them a try immediately too!

Then Pevonia’s newest launch will be a godsend! The NEW De-Stress Escape Aromatic Oil’s name say it all. It quite literally takes you on a de-stressing journey (and yes I’m aware of how cheesy that sounds!) as it eases anxiety while instantly delivering intense hydration and total relaxation for glowing, healthy skin!

Because of its amazing formulation which includes four pure essential oils; lavender, chamomile, rose and grapefruit to calm, sooth, and deeply rejuvenate mind and skin!Soothing, calming, relaxing, hydrating and brightening!! What more could you want from a product?To learn more about the amazing skin and mood boosting benefits of lavender, chamomile, rose and grapefruit essential oils click here. NEW Phytomer Oligomer Well Being Sensation Moisturizing Body Cream with Trace ElementsIf it’s your body that needs a little loving, I highly recommend you trying Phytomer’s newest addition to the Oligomer Well-Being Sensation family - Oligomer Well-Being Sensation Moisturizing Body Cream with Trace Elements. It’s a melt-away cream which intensely moisturises the skin while bathing it in a therapeutic seaside scent (lush) and It’s rich, soothing texture treats skin to all the benefits found in OLIGOMER® - a pure seawater concentrate that’s rich in minerals and trace elements.We all know that seawater is good for not only our skin but our soul too, thanks to the multitude of miraculous benefits and a treasure trove of skin-loving ingredients it holds! But let’s face it, we aren’t likely to be taking a dip in the ocean any time soon thanks to the cold weather the majority of us are experiencing right now!! Brrrrr so this product really is the next best thing! NEW Phytomer Gentle Illuminating Shampoo with Marine Plant AND Phytomer Gentle Detangling Conditioner with Marine PlantI feel the last few weeks haven’t been kind to my hair! And I’m not sure if it’s because I’ve had a cold, I’m not getting enough fresh air, being a little lazy thanks to lockdown or simply not consuming enough much-needed water (I need to practice what I preach more!) but until last week my hair was looking a little lifeless, that’s until I introduced Phytomer’s NEW haircare into my life! The NEW Gentle Illuminating Shampoo and Gentle Detangling Conditioner both with Marine Plant, Algae and Vegetal Oil (so all the goodness of the sea!) provides a luxurious washing experience and optimal results from the very first wash. Many shampoos and conditioners offer the results we all seek the first time you use them, but the test is whether wash after wash we still see the same showstopping results! Well with these two products you do! I’ve used them (together of course) three times now and my hair is soft, bouncy, shiny and silky smooth (as promised) and it doesn’t feel weighted which it can happen after using some heavy conditioners! Yes, they are pricey but for me worth their weight in gold.NEW Phytomer Structuriste Firming Contour SerumThis is a beautifully lightweight milky serum is designed to effectively smooth, firm and plump the skin, and boy does it do just that! This new love of mine (in just a few weeks) has noticeably improved my somewhat dull looking skin! It definitely feels firmer, plumper and looks like it’s got its radiance back! I’m also loving the subtle floral scent! It’s formulated with marine algae and squalane for deep moisturising but also Lily of the Valley, Jasmine and Peony! So if you are concerned about skin ageing including loss of elasticity and luminosity this could be your new go-to.I suggest using this product in the morning and the NEW Phytomer Structuriste Firming Contour Serum at night for fantastic results!Enjoy bathing in the benefits of all five beauty buys.

Here at Beauty Collective, we are very privileged to be surrounded by the best of the best when it comes to beauty. Collectively our panel of experts, as well as our head office team, have tried and tested hundreds of skincare and makeup products over the years, but these are the 7 favourites that we all agree to stand out from the rest of the pack, and take it from me, if a product has made it onto this list, you can bet your bottom dollar it’s a gold star beauty buy, here is why; Pevonia “C” ComplexInstantly brighter, dewier skin? Who doesn’t want that right? Well this product certainly delivers! For the ultimate skin brightening boost, this product is a must. Superhero glow-getter Vitamin C comes together with hydrating and anti-ageing powerhouse hyaluronic acid to deeply nourish and correct photo-damage! The citrus scent is simply heavenly, and it feels amazingly refreshing on application! But more importantly, the results speak for themselves! Radiant looking skin instantaneously. ELES BB CreamI’m personally not one for foundations because I find them a little OTT for my skin, but this BB Cream is an everyday favourite of mine and I would say for the majority of girls at BC. I LOVE that it is quite literally a multi-tasking wonder cream! It primes, tints, nourishes, protects (thanks to its SPF of 30) and evens out skin tone for a truly natural, flawless finish, plus it feels like you aren’t wearing anything, no easy feat for makeup with SPF that’s for sure! So if you are a busy mum on the go like me, this product is one you should seriously consider too! Pevonia Age Correction Marine Collagen CreamMy personal absolute can’t live without product and the no. 1 favourite of many here too, the Marine Collagen Cream isn’t Pevonia’s global bestseller for nothing! It’s a gorgeously rich, yet fine cream that feels amazing on application and really does leave skin super soft, supple and like it’s had that much-needed boost of moisture, a feeling that lasts all day! I swear my 40-year-old self has less visible lines and wrinkles thanks to this superstar cream! Pevonia Dry Oil Body MoisturiserFor a little extra energy and a spring in your step, try indulging your body in the numerous benefits of this botanically infused body oil!Absolutely luscious it quite literally indulges skin in aromatic glory for want of a better word! It’s a dry oil without being oily or greasy (which is a no no from me!) and immediately absorbs into skin, replenishing and nourishing every inch! After using it (it’s great to use after stepping out of the shower) I promise your body will have never felt so silky-soft! Oh, and the smell is divine too! Pevonia Vitaminic ConcentrateWe all LOVE this product and for very good reason. It’s a radical dry skin saviour and especially at this time of year with the change in seasons skin can be dry, sensitive and lacklustre. I personally can’t get enough of it at night! It is soothing and silky and has the most amazing mandarin aroma. Yes it’s an oil but it’s fast absorbing so you know it’s doing good stuff to your skin, and it combats dehydration instantaneously by locking in that much needed moisture, so simply put you’ll wake up to smooth, supple and seriously glowy skin every morning, I can vouch for that!Pevonia Micro Retinol CreamAside from Hyaluronic Acid and Vitamin C, Retinol has long been worshipped as the hero ingredient in the fight against ageing and we know why! A derivative of Vitamin A, this ‘holy grail’ of ingredients offers a multitude of benefits from reducing the appearance of fine lines and preventing wrinkles, to correcting hyperpigmentation and photo ageing, reducing large pores and clearing acne to speeding cell turning over and making cells function like that of a child!! Crazy right? With all this in mind, our entire team at BC were up for the challenge of trialling Pevonia’s Micro Retinol Cream but were sure to do so by slow introduction as retinol if applied topically too much too fast can have an adverse effect.The cream is beautiful! So light in texture, non-greasy and with a subtle scent. We collectively noticed changes in our skin from smoothing of lines and wrinkles, to skin softening, improvement in firmness and reduced in pore size as well as pigmentation! What more could we want? I’ve personally tried retinol-based products before but had found them irritating and a little unpleasant, not with this product! After weeks of using it at night my skin appears so much more luminous, refined and visibly hydrated too! Phytomer Oligomer Well Being Sensation Essential Mineral Relaxing BathNothing relieves stress and induces relaxation quite like an indulgent bubble bath, better still a bath laced with the remineralizing magical properties of the sea! Phytomer’s Oligomer Well being Sensation Essential Mineral Relaxing Bath, enriched with Oligomer – a partially sodium reduced seawater concentrate that contains all of the remineralizing properties of seawater – is one of those little gems we all need in our lives. You feel like you could quite literally float away as it evokes a feeling of pure weightlessness as all pent-up tension slips away. Pure bliss. From the best in professional skincare to makeup mast-haves, these are the beauty heroes the team at BC can’t get enough of.
