For when your skin is in need of a mini facial
Enzymo Spherides Peeling Cream
Do not let the word “peel” as I always say put you off! This gentle exfoliating cream is a gem and it looks like many of our customers think so too! combines natural fruit pineapple and papaya enzymes to gently and effectively eliminate impurities, blackheads, dead cells and toxins and it’s so easy to use! Simply apply a thin layer to cleansed skin, wet your fingertips with warm water (this will help to ‘wake up’ the enzymes) and work the peeling cream with gentle massage movements into skin, leave on for 5 minutes and then thoroughly rinse away. Nothing makes skin feel cleaner, softer, smoother and brighter than this mini facial in a jar of goodness!! Trust me.
“Absolutely the best product on the market. Perfect for all skin types and ages. Truly amazing. It's gentle and effective, skin is left bright and soft.” – Lisa W

Pevonia Hyaluronic Acid Hydra Mask
All hail this hydrating mask! Rich in hyaluronic acid (and we are talking Ultra low-Molecular-Weight Hyaluronic Acid O.5 kDa) which is in fact the world's smallest so it can cleverly penetrate between skin cells for maximum absorption, long lasting deep hydration and plumpness! Cool right? But it not only nourishes and plumps the skin, it also improves elasticity, brightness, the appearance of wrinkles and overall complexion! All while strengthening the skin’s barrier!
Brilliant mask! I bought this a month ago as it’s a new product on Beauty Collective so have only used it a few times but the results after you remove the mask are instant! Skin looks plumped, fresher and brighter! Love it.” – Sally M

The best beauty buys this winter for soft, glowing skin
by Jo Boyden
on May 30 2025
With winter just days away (how did that happen!) it’s time to prep skin for the cooler months ahead! Unfortunately, that radiant, dewy complexion we rocked in summer can quickly give way to dryness, dullness, and a tight, uncomfortable feeling so it’s important to up the ante by giving skin a little extra TLC to keep it hydrated and healthy.
From glow-getting skincare to the best body solutions, keep reading as we countdown the best winter skin essentials for a soft, glowing complexion, 9 products both we and our customers can’t get enough of!
Phytomer Perfect Visage Gentle Cleansing Milk - All Skin Types
You might love a good foaming cleanser (I know I do!), but they can unfortunately leave your skin feeling squeaky clean (and stripped!) with it comes to the cool months. Winter calls for gentle, nourishing cleansers that help protect the skin's natural barrier rather than strip it of the essential oils you really need!
Phytomer’s Perfect Visage Gentle Cleansing Milk is beautifully creamy and formulated with OLIGOMER® (Phytomer's signature seawater concentrate) to cleanse gently while remineralizing and fortifying the skin. Your skin will feel soft and hydrated after every use (and of course perfectly cleansed!) not tight. It really is a true winter skin saviour!
“The best cleansing milk that I have ever tried! I just love it. My skin feels so soft, clean and refresh, not dry at all... Highly recommend!” – Deb
“Hands down the best facial cleanser I've ever used. Always leaves your face feeling clean while hydrating. Use in the morning and at night, with the Rose Visage Toner. Don't know If I could ever move on to a different product!” – Lisa
Pevonia Power Repair Hyaluronic Acid Hydra Serum
If you want serious hydration that goes beyond the surface, a hyaluronic serum is your non-negotiable winter ally and Pevonia’s Hyaluronic Acid Hydra Serum is our go-to every time! This powerful serum is packed with hyaluronic acid (in fact it features one of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid on the market at 12%). Combined with the powerful duo of marine collagen and hibiscus esculentus extract it delivers an intense surge of moisture that plumps, smooths, and leaves your skin feeling incredibly supple. It's like a big drink of water for your face!
“Instant youth and hydration! This stuff makes my skin look hydrated, glowy and refreshed. LOVE!” – Ceslie R
“I have just started using this serum and the results are already noticeable. My skin is so much more youthful! Smoother, plumper and visibly radiant! I couldn’t recommend more highly!!” – Mary C
Pevonia Rejuvenating Dry Skin Cream
You might well love your daily moisturiser, maybe you’ve been using it for some time now, but I’m here to tell you that if it’s lightweight and was perfect for summer it’ll likely not cut it as the temperatures drop! And this will visibly reflect on your skin too! It’s time to transition to a richer formulation rich in hyaluronic acid, shea butter and ceramides that will lock in moisture and protect your skin just like Pevonia’s Rejuvenating Dry Skin Cream. Don't let the "dry skin" in the name fool you though, this cream is a dream for anyone needing extra comfort and nourishment in winter. Packed with natural goodness including hyaluronic acid, collagen, squalane, pear seed oil, honey, aloe, shea butter and glycerin, It provides intense hydration and helps to restore the skin's youthful glow.
“This is the most beautiful cream. It’s hydrating and nourishing without feeling heavy or clogging and the smell is amazing.” – Ellen R
“I have tried numerous products whose purpose is to hydrate and soften dry skin but this is the only product that I have found that actually accomplishes this goal. – Sarah S
Pevonia Vitaminic Concentrate
For an extra boost of glow and nourishment, especially at night, facial oils are a game-changer. They work with your skin's natural lipids to strengthen its barrier and deliver potent ingredients. This luxurious oil is not only incredibly nourishing and combats dehydration and dryness like no other, but it’s gorgeous mandarin aroma also helps to soothe your senses, making it the ultimate beauty buy for a relaxing winter evening routine! We LOVE it and we know you will too!
“This oil is one of my favourites... I love the smell and it feels light as a feather on your skin. I wear it alone in the am and with a moisturizer at night through the winter.” – Pamela G
“This serum is worth its weight in gold. I have searched everywhere to find something that delivers moisture that stays. This is it. It is on the pricey side but it's worth every penny. Only a little bit will cover the whole face nicely.” - Changing
Phytomer’s Night Recharge Youth Enhancing Cream
Winter is the perfect time to introduce a nourishing night cream! Skin cells do their greatest renewal and repair whist we sleep, so applying much needed hydration at night is essential to maximise absorption and to enhance your skin barrier. In the winter months I personally use Phytomer’s Night Recharge Youth Enhancing Cream because my skin really needs that extra layer of rich moisturiser! The cream literally cocoons my skin in nourishing hydration and really does restore youthful vitality by morning. It’s formulated with the best in marine ingredients including D-Tox Microalgae (designed to promote the elimination of free radicals, toxins, and pollutants detoxifying the skin while you sleep), Marine Mannitol (an active ingredient which helps to re-oxygenate tired and "asphyxiated" cells) and Laminaria Digitata Extract, Salicornia Herbacea Extract and Jojoba & Sunflower Seed Wax to deeply nourish, revitalise and strengthen the skin! I simply love how my skin looks and feels when I wake up (I’m talking glowy, plumper and just more youthful looking!) and I know you will love it too!
“I am in love with this product! I've been using it for a few months now and every morning after I've applied it the night before my skin feels smoother and looks so much more radiant! It's texture is silky and rich and the scent is subtle but wonderful!” – Rillie
“Love my phytomer products. Bought and tried this for the first time the other night. It is beautiful and rich and gave me a recharge overnight. Phytomer never disappoints me.” – Cass
Pevonia’s Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser
While it might seem counterintuitive to exfoliate dry winter skin, gentle exfoliation is crucial to remove dead skin cells that can build up and make your complexion look dull! This is because cold weather can leave your skin flaky and rough.
Pevonia’s creamy exfoliating scrub gently buffs away dead skin cells, impurities and toxins with jojoba beads while Saponaria and chamomile, calm and soften skin, leaving your it velvety, glowy, smooth and ready to absorb moisture. You’ll love the immediate gratification you’ll get from this formidable favourite of ours. Use 1-2 times weekly.
“I love this exfoliator, my skin always feels so smooth and hydrated after using it. It also makes my skin look a lot brighter.” – Oreilly
“I love this cleanser! I have never been able to exfoliate with anything else as it has just been too harsh for my skin. This gentle exfoliating cleansers is exactly that! Leaves my skin feeling beautiful and soft and definitely makes a noticeable difference in my texture. I use once a week and it has been a game changer for my skin.” – Stacey H
Phytomer Oligomer® Well-Being Sensation Body Cream
Your face isn’t the only thing that needs winter care! Your body deserves some love too! You’ll want to opt for a rich, nourishing body cream packed with ingredients like shea butter, hyaluronic acid, glycerin, or marine extracts to keep your skin silky smooth and we LOVE Phytomer’s Well-being Sensation. It’s deeply moisturising without being greasy, delicately fragranced for spa-like vibes (ahhh) and it’s infused with trace elements and marine minerals so you can image how amazingly soft and supple your skin feels after every use!
“This body cream is so moisturizing and has a light spa scent that is so gentle. I have used many hand/foot/body creams from other French brands and this is the one that is best for me!” - Verity
“This great smelling product moisturized my skin all day long without having to reapply. It was exactly what I've experienced in Salons.” – Reg
Pevonia Tropicale De-Aging Saltmousse Papaya-Pineapple
Just as it’s important to use a good exfoliator for our face, we mustn’t forget to exfoliate the skin on our body either! This outstanding body exfoliator is as indulgent as they come delivering an aroma-sensory experience while gently exfoliating your skin! Luxuriously foaming and formulated with French sea salt, papaya and pineapple extracts, it also nourishes and detoxifies the skin. As the salt dissolves, tropical fruit enzymes work their magic, leaving your skin velvety-smooth, radiant, and refreshed. And yes we know it carries a hefty price tag but we promise you it’s worth it!
“This is not in the class of a typical exfoliant. This is a high end spa product. The scent alone will take you to the spa experience but most importantly any rough skin will feel silky after the very first treatment and look visibly smoother.” – Khristine B
“I just love everything about this product. The smell is absolutely Devine and it leaves my skin so very smooth. A brilliant product.” – Jewel
Phytomer Oleocreme Ultra-Nourishing Hand Cream
A good hand cream is an absolute essential for me in winter and hey why shouldn’t we look after our hands as we do our face and body? The thing is before I discovered Phytomer’s Oleocreme Ultra-Nourishing Hand Cream I hated the feel of wearing hand cream and I’d want to wash my hands immediately after I’d applied it, so instead I used to bear the brunt of dry cracked skin! Not anymore! My favourite hand cream (and I’ve tried many) absorbs into skin immediately and intensely nourishes, soothes and softens my dry, damaged hands. I take it everywhere I go!
“I love this hand cream! It really helps my chapped hands. It is not greasy but very hydrating. It smells great too!!” – Nicole
“Just as the name of the cream suggest, this is a really rich and moisturizing hand cream! It sinks in to the skin and leaves my hands soft. I just love it.” – Maryanne V
Want to know what our top picks are when it comes to makeup essentials for Winter too? Click here.
A few other tips to remember to get your skin through the winter season;
- No matter how tempting it is (and I have been guilty in the past!) try not to have your shower set to HOT. Unfortunately, it will strip your skin’s natural oils leaving you feeling tight and dry!
- Don’t forget to hydrate from within too! Topical skincare is essential to nourish the skin from the outside in, but you also need to drink plenty of water to hydrate from within!
- And remember even in winter you need to wear your sunscreen!! The UV rays are always there!
Still searching? The last-minute gift ideas your mum will love
by Jo Boyden
on May 07 2025
Mother’s Day is fast approaching so if you haven’t already, it’s high time you sorted that perfect gift for your special mum! The problem is, you might, like many, have left it a little too late to order that personalised or monogrammed gift you’d had your eye on! Thankfully though, with super-fast shipping and plenty of outstanding products, BC have you covered when it comes to last-minute gift ideas. From the latest skin care releases to the hottest tools, we've rounded up the best beauty buys we believe both you and your mum will love!
1. Pevonia Enzymo-Spherides Peeling Cream (your mini facial in a jar!)
Giving the gift of skincare can be a little complicated if you’re unsure of your mum’s skin type, specific needs, or the products she really loves, so why not opt for a beauty buy that is perfect for everyone! And you really can fast track your mum to radiant skin with this gem of a product! Don’t let the word ‘peel’ put you off though! This outstanding, natural peeling cream will do wonders for even those with sensitive skin! It combines natural fruit pineapple and papaya enzymes to gently eliminate impurities, dead cells, blackheads and toxins from the skin, revealing a silky, soft, smooth and glowing complexion after every use! Your mum will love the immediate gratification she’ll get from this formidable favourite of ours. Oh and exfoliation is imperative no matter what your age or your skin type!
For those who never pamper themselves or are simply time poor, this product is like a mini facial in a jar! Don’t just take my word for it though, read all the fabulous reviews too!
2. Phytomer Oligomer Well Being Sensation Essential Mineral Relaxing Bath
Who doesn’t love a long soak in the bath? But I bet the majority of us don’t indulge enough because grabbing a quick shower is always the easy option, especially if you are time poor! Well give your mum a reason to have that bath by transforming it into a wee spa with this outstanding product. Simply pour the product in, light a candle, add a little music and it could be nearly as good as a pamper session in her favourite spa!Lightly foaming, this stress relief liquid gold, contains all the remineralizing properties of seawater to strengthen and restore skin and release all pent-up tension.

3. ELES Sheet Masks
Sheet masks make a perfect gift because they offer instant pampering and visible results in just minutes. And these 4 masks from ELES are no exception! They're easy to use, feel indulgent, and suit all skin types. Whether for hydration and brightening, calming and soothing, purifying or de-ageing, sheet masks are a thoughtful, affordable way to encourage self-care and relaxation.
4. Gemstone roller
These little massage beauty’s (also touted as an “anti-ageing tool”) are an amazing gift idea, not just because they’ve become a beauty bag staple in recent years, or because they ‘look’ great but because they offer a multitude of benefits for the skin when used regularly and correctly. They can help fight wrinkles, stimulate collagen production, tighten skin and pores, increase blood circulation to the face, clear toxins, decrease puffiness under the eyes and around the face, and potentially improve inflammatory skin conditions too. They even have the ability to release tension and are soo soothing and calming on the skin. Unfortunately, there is no one size fits all though, with a range of gemstone options, it’s important to look at their individual properties and benefits to find one you think your mum would love! To find out more click there.

6. Pevonia De-Ageing Body Balm Papaya Pineapple
This product might carry a hefty price tag but it’s for very good reason! Its literally heaven in a jar.

Looking for something special to do with your little one (or mum!) this Mother’s Day? Or any day for that matter! Instead of heading out and about why not create a mini spa at home? In the hustle and bustle of daily life, finding time to relax, indulge and practice self-care can be few and far between especially if you have young children at home! However, incorporating skincare pampering into quality time with your loved ones can offer a fun and unique opportunity to bond while taking care of yourself too!Read on as we talk tips to combine your skincare spa time with fun activities that involve your children (or your mum) too! Create a sensory experience Start off your spa routine by creating a sensory experience. Incorporate scented candles, soothing music and calming essential oils.Invite your children to participate by selecting their favourite scents and assisting with setting up the ambiance. Engaging their senses will make the experience more enjoyable for everyone and create a serene atmosphere perfect for relaxation. Prepare your skin Now you’ve set the scene, it’s time to start prepping for some pampering. Use a headband or hair tie to ensure your hair is pulled back from your face. Make sure your neck is accessible, and we recommend wearing a robe to get you in the spa spirit! Time for a facial Start your spa time with a mini facial!Cleanse - begin by cleansing your skin. Teaching children from an early age the importance of cleaning their face will do wonders for their skin later on. Just make sure you use products that are age and skin type appropriate!Apply a small quantity of cleanser over face and neck; work it with fingertips for a good 20-30 seconds. Remove with a washcloth or micro-fibre cloth wet with warm water. Pat dry with a clean towel.Exfoliate - next, it’s time to gently exfoliate your skin to remove all those dead skin cells and any additional toxins and debris remaining on the skin. NB. Make sure you skip this step for younger children.Apply a small quantity (about the size of a grape) of exfoliator onto your face and neck and work with wet fingertips for a few minutes. We highly recommend the Phytomer Vegetal Exfoliant with natural enzymes. It’s a seriously soft, silky and subtly scented exfoliant perfect for all skin types even those who suffer from sensitive skin, and it effectively eliminates impurities by gently removing dead skin cells with natural enzymes (so no scrubbing or irritating the skin whatsoever!)Now rinse face with warm water and pat dry with a towel. Enjoy the results as your skin resurfaces smoother, softer and crystal clean every time! Heaven.DIY Face Masks - now it’s time for the fun part! You can either get creative in the kitchen and whip up some nourishing DIY face masks using natural ingredients in your fridge and pantry like yogurt, honey and avocado or use a face mask ready to go!With so many face masks to select from, it’s ideal to choose the one that’ll best suit your skin on the day of the facial.For the best face masks for every skin type and concern click here.Once chosen, all you have to do is apply a thin layer onto your face and neck and leave on for 10-15 minutes. While you’re waiting why not apply cucumbers to your eyes! Your children will love this, and your eyes will thank you for it too. The cooling effect of the cucumber will soothe and relax the skin. Cucumbers are also rich in vitamin C and K, which can provide a brightening effect, minimize dark under eye circles, and help ward off free radical damage.When it's time to remove your mask, use a washcloth or micro-fibre cloth wet with cool water. Pat dry with a clean towel. Have fun with massage Now it’s time to moisturise your skin with your chosen moisturiser and get massaging your face!Facial massage has so many benefits! From relieving stress to boosting circulation. To learn more about the benefits click here.To take your skin to the next level you could try incorporating a gemstone facial roller into the massage routine too! My children find this part fun as they love learning about the benefits of the roller and how cooling it feels on the face!Want to know more about gemstone rollers and their many benefits yourself click here. Give each other a mini makeover Now that the facial component is complete, why not have fun and give each other a mini makeover! Just be sure to use makeup safe for all skin types including young children. We recommend mineral makeup as it's skin safe and doesn’t clog pores. Enjoy mini mani-pedis Treat yourselves to a mini mani-pedi session at home, complete with colourful nail polish and luxurious hand and foot creams.Let your children choose their favourite nail polish colour and take turns painting each other’s nails. Finish with some relaxation exercises Why not add a little relaxion and meditation into your spa time! You can teach your children the importance of relaxation and mindfulness by incorporating simple relaxation exercises into your spa time.Practice deep breathing techniques, gentle stretching or guided meditation together to help calm the mind and body.Not only will this promote relaxation and stress relief for both you and your kids, but it will also instill valuable self-care habits from a young age. Combining your skincare routine with quality spa-time with your children is a wonderful way to nurture your bond while taking care of yourself. By involving your children in your skincare routine and making it a fun and interactive experience, you can create lasting memories and teach them the importance of self-care and relaxation too.

If like me you’re finding the festive season somewhat exhausting thanks to the daily juggle of events, get togethers, shopping trips, kid’s activities, workload and more, it’s time to get serious about your skin because chances are it’ll be visibly reflecting exactly how you feel, and let’s face it no one wants to look fatigued! No sireee, instead we all want beautifully glowing skin, and beautifully glowing skin you shall have (as long as you invest in the right radiance boosting products that is!)

It’s a beautiful lightweight, creamy serum which smells DIVINE.I personally use this product every single day as I love how it makes my skin both look and feel! (and I love the complimentary comments I get from wearing it too!) Its rich in Vitamin C and hydration hero hyaluronic acid, that work together to quite literally drench your skin with repairing antioxidants, deeply nourishing it while correcting photo-damage. And not only does it have the most beautiful citrus aroma, it makes skin instantly brighter and dewier on application too!

Sunscreen IS essential all year round, but with more time out and about this silly season, it really is time to find that SPF favourite and use it religiously.So with that said, we felt it important to incorporate one into this list. We get that sunscreen often doesn’t feel good, no one likes the thick, oily slick that some can leave, not to mention the smell, but this one by Medicalia is subtle in fragrance, offers skin a smooth tinted look and protects skin against UV rays and Blue light damage omitted from all those devices we love to use! That’s right your devices can and will affect your skin just as the harmful rays from the sun do, and this sunscreen will help prevent that! We love it!Phytomer Night Recharge Youth Enhancing CreamLooking after your skin with a good night-time routine will have a profound effect on its appearance by morning believe me!And my personal go-to for summer is Phytomer’s beautiful silky, lightweight Night Recharge Youth Enhancing Cream.

It’s soo good!

Such a simple yet luxurious and effective gift idea, Phytomer’s Oligomer Well Being Sensation Essential Mineral Relaxing Bath will transform the bath into a wee spa, encouraging not only relaxation but romance too! Lightly foaming, this stress relief liquid gold, contains all the remineralizing properties of seawater to strengthen and restore skin and release all pent-up tension. Ahhhhh. And all you need to do is simply pour a little into the bath, light a candle if you wish (and add a little music) and it could be nearly as good as a pamper session in your loved ones favourite spa! ELES Custom PaletteThis sleek and convenient compact by ELES Cosmetics, where you call the shots, is a no-brainer for any makeup lover! Guaranteed to become a daily go-to, this beauty favourite created to add a little makeup loving to any complexion, features four empty face, blush and eyeshadow slots for you to customize for that special person in your life.What’s more, the feather-light formulas of each of the products are enriched with natural skin-caring ingredients including vitamins A, C & E to help provide antioxidant defence while conditioning and protecting the skin so you’ll be looking after their skin’s health too!.

Beauty Collective Gemstone Facial RollerThese little massage beauty’s (also touted as an “anti-ageing tool”) are an amazing gift idea, not just because they’ve become a beauty bag staple in recent years, or because they ‘look’ great but because they offer a multitude of benefits for the skin when used regularly and correctly. They can help fight wrinkles, stimulate collagen production, tighten skin and pores, increase blood circulation to the face, clear toxins, decrease puffiness under the eyes and around the face, and potentially improve inflammatory skin conditions too. They even have the ability to release tension and are soo soothing and calming on the skin. Unfortunately, there is no one size fits all though, with a range of gemstone options, it’s important to look at their individual properties and benefits to find the one you think your partner would love!

To recreate our bronzed beauty makeup look is easy and includes only a few featured products.Start by simply applying a supple dewy foundation such as the ELES BB Cream 30 or Mineral Sheer Tint, followed by a bronzer to contour beneath your cheeks and jawline to “slim” the face. The ELES Baked Bronzer in Sunbeam is perfect for recreating this bronzed glow. Apply a little extra to your forehead to add that “sun-kissed” warmth and if you want to be a real show stopper, dab on a little stick illuminator above the apples of your cheeks, down the centre of your nose and in the inner corner of your eyes.To make eyes pop, apply a light sweep of ELES Mineral Shadow in Vanilla to your eye lids and then blend softly above the crease of your eye lid, as well as beneath the lower lash line. Don’t be afraid to use the ELES Waterliner pencil in both the inner corners of your eyes as well as on your waterline. Complete the eyes with lashings of mascara.For that subtle flush of colour on the lips, use a lip liner to gently fill in (we recommend the ELES Gel Lipliner in Nude) and then add a touch of lippie such as the ELES Moisture Crème Lipstick in Parfait.
Team BC’s go-to products this holiday season
by Jo Boyden
on Dec 09 2022
Whether you are working through the holiday season, taking time off to just be, or heading on a trip overseas, Beauty Collective have a multitude of beauty products that will perfectly suit your every need. But with so many options to choose from we thought we’d lend you a helping hand by asking a few of the BC head office team their go-to products for this upcoming holiday season. From best-selling skincare to multi-tasking make up products, there is something for everyone and every occasion. Enjoy! Pevonia Hyaluronic Acid Hydra MistThis product is a dream and a must-have for any occasion! I am obsessed and use it religiously every morning after I cleanse and moisturise for that extra boost of hydration! But that’s not all! I also carry it with me wherever I go as it provides the perfect spritz to replenish tired, dry or tight skin, whether it be during the day when I’m in the office, after I’ve spent a few hours at the beach or on a long-haul flight overseas. I’ve also found it’s a fantastic setting spray to help makeup stay in place all day long (no more looking in the mirror mid-morning and seeing that my makeup has disappeared from my face!)As well as Hyaluronic Acid, it’s formulated with a blend of ultra-calming Chamomile, Aloe, Green Tea and aromatic essential oils, making this powerhouse product ideal for all skin types, especially dehydrated, irritated, and ageing skin! However should your skin be on the sensitive side, a little itchy or irritated even, it will work its magic to calm, nurture and alleviate too.Jo Boyden, PR & Marketing Manager ELES Luminous Defence Brightening Day Protection 50+With so many outdoor celebrations over the Christmas break I'll be reaching for my favourite sun protection; the ELES Luminous Defence Brightening Day Protection 50+. It's super lightweight and full of great ingredients that prevent hyper-pigmentation and dehydration. It also gives me a bit of glow which is a bonus.Liane Scior, Director of Education & Marketing Phytomer Hydra continue 22h moisture flash GelI do a lot of flying for work and this has become my go-to to restore hydration in my skin before and after flights. This beautiful light textured gel is like giving your skin its own glass of water to keep hydrated and the results are also immediate.Kellie Deveney, International Educator and Business Development Manager Medicalia SPF 40 with Blue Light ShieldThis is one of my all-time favourite skin care products. It’s the one thing I make sure I am never without all year round and especially while travelling. Wearing a daily SPF is essential for me and the gorgeous tint lightly evens out my complexion enough to not need make up while on holidays. The blue light shield is an added bonus on my office days.Taryn Gray, Brand Co-ordinatorELES Age Defying BB Cream 30I love the convenience of this product and wear it whether I’m at the office or heading to the beach. It’s lightweight so you don’t feel like you are really wearing makeup at all, it provides my skin with a flawless, glowy finish, and it’s the ultimate multitasker as it couples as a moisturiser, sunscreen, primer and foundation! What more could you ask for?May Scior, Operations Assistant Vie Collection Waterproof Eye Makeup Remover Eyes and LipsRemoving "waterproof" makeup was really a feat until I discovered Vie Collection's Waterproof Eye Makeup Remover for Eyes and Lips. We all know that only oil can remove waterproof makeup and this one has the power of three oils combined but without the grease. During the holiday season, I can layer my makeup to make it last all day or all night and I have absolutely no problem removing my makeup at all! I can easily remove and cleanse it without rubbing my skin. Absolutely zero skin irritation!Elaine Palapag, Social Media Co-ordinator

It’s that time again! Time to tell you which products we, at Beauty Collective HQ, are loving right now!

So if you are worried about dehydration, and premature ageing this pack is perfect! I love it so much I’ve actually bought 3 of them for family members and with a 30% saving on this collection of Pevonia’s global best sellers what more could you ask for?Jo Boyden, PR & Marketing Manager ELES Sheet MasksI’ve been doing a lot of travelling for work lately and these masks have become my go-to products (I also love to use them when I’m chilling at home watching Netflix!) Comprising of three different masks – anti-ageing, hydrating and soothing – they are quick and easy to apply and drenched in active ingredients for optimal results. My skin is definitely the better for them! I like to apply after I have cleansed and exfoliated my skin with the Pevonia Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser - another simple and effective product to clean and remove dead cells quickly so my sheet masks work better.Kellie Deveney, International Educator and Business Development Manager Pevonia De-Stress Escape Facial Gift PackThis is the ultimate Christmas gift set, suitable for all skin types and such a special selection of products. I’m obsessed with the combination of cleanser and skin oil luxuriously massaged over the face and neck with the Jade facial roller. It feels like a little bit of day spa at home.Taryn Gray, Brand Co-ordinatorPhytomer Oligo 6 ConcentrateI'm really loving the new Oligo 6 Concentrate from Phytomer. At the end of a busy day this super-light oil sinks into my skin and you can see the demineralizing and replenishing benefits each morning. Overall, my skin feels softer, calmer and much firmer. I also love the subtle fresh aroma which is so soothing.Liane Scior, Director of Education & MarketingELES Brow BalmThe ELES Brow Balm is my new love! I have thin, sparse brows and the new ELES Brow Balm fills and defines my brows well. It doesn’t fade even when I spend the day outside on weekends which is really great! It’s creamy so it’s easy to apply but gives that semi matte finish which makes it look more natural. This is totally a must have this summer!Elaine Palapag, Social Media Co-ordinator Phytomer Cyfolia Organic Radiance Cleansing CreamI’m usually a foaming gel cleanser person but I fell in love with this silky-smooth cleanser that not only cleans my skin but leaves it soft, plump and radiant too! Oh and it also smells divine with spiced pink peppercorn and cedar wood.May Scior, Operations Assistant

These are the best last-minute beauty gifts to give this Mother’s Day
by Jo Boyden
on May 02 2022
If the last two ‘covid’ years have taught us anything it’s just how important family really is, and while we don’t need a date in the calendar to celebrate this fact (because let’s face it celebrating loved ones like our mums should be an everyday activity), having an event like Mother’s Day is actually the perfect excuse to surprise our amazing mums with something a little ‘extra’.The problem is, you might, like many, have left it a little late to order that personalised or monogrammed gift you’d had your eye on! Thankfully though, with super-fast shipping and plenty of outstanding products, BC have you covered when it comes to last-minute gift ideas. From the latest skin care releases to the hottest tools, we've rounded up the best beauty buys we believe both you and your mum will love! Pevonia’s Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser Giving the gift of skincare can be a little complicated if you’re unsure of your mum’s skin type, specific needs, or the products she really loves, so why not opt for a beauty buy that is perfect for everyone! No matter your mum’s age, Pevonia’s creamy and luxurious Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser is a great choice. It’s THE perfect all-rounder exfoliator for all skin types. A creamy, granular, exfoliating cream formulated with jojoba beads, Saponaria and Chamomile that very gently polishes away dry, dead skin cells, impurities and toxins to reveal instant radiance and softer, smoother skin too! It reduces pore size with regular use, it’s perfect to use in the shower in the mornings and is so gentle you can use it every day if you please! (Although exfoliating is generally recommended 1-2 times weekly!) your mum will love the immediate gratification she’ll get from this formidable favourite of ours. Oh and exfoliation is imperative no matter what your age or your skin type! Phytomer Oligomer Well Being Sensation Essential Mineral Relaxing Bath Who doesn’t love a long soak in the bath? But I bet the majority of us don’t indulge enough because grabbing a quick shower is always the easy option, especially if you are time poor! Well give your mum a reason to have that bath by transforming it into a wee spa with this outstanding product. Simply pour the product in, light a candle, add a little music and it could be nearly as good as a pamper session in her favourite spa!Lightly foaming, this stress relief liquid gold, contains all the remineralizing properties of seawater to strengthen and restore skin and release all pent-up tension. Aghhhhhh. ELES Custom Palette For busy mums (like me!) the words ‘makeup palette’ can be like music to the ears!This sleek and convenient compact by ELES Cosmetics, where you call the shots, is a no-brainer for any makeup loving mum! Guaranteed to become your mums daily go-to, this beauty favourite created to add a little makeup loving to any complexion, features four empty face, blush and eyeshadow slots for you to customize for your mum, and with a great selection of shades your options are limitless.What's more, the feather-light formulas of each of the products are enriched with natural skin-caring ingredients including vitamins A, C & E to help provide antioxidant defence while conditioning and protecting the skin. Richly pigmented and silky smooth to apply, all products deliver rich, opaque colour for hours of crease-resistant wear! Pevonia Power Repair Starter Pack A splurge-worthy skincare starter pack is always a winner when it comes to gift giving and what’s better than one containing global best-sellers. I mean they aren’t called ‘best sellers for nothing right?We (and well many of our customers) LOVE these anti-ageing essentials and this starter pack is the perfect introduction to Pevonia’s Power Repair range. Featuring not one, but three of Pevonia’s best-sellers (and my favourites too!) the products in this pack provide skin with the ultimate in hydration and skin-smoothing results. Including Age Correction Hydrating Toner, Age Correction Hydrating Cleanser, and an Age Correction Marine Collagen Cream, your mum will be blown away by the results after just a few applications. Pevonia Enzymo-Spherides Peeling Cream You can fast track your mum to radiant skin with this gem of a product, the ultimate gift for skincare lovers! And don’t let the word ‘peel’ put you off! This outstanding, natural peeling cream will do wonders for even those with sensitive skin! It combines natural fruit pineapple and papaya enzymes to gently eliminate impurities, dead cells, blackheads and toxins from the skin, revealing a silky, soft, smooth and glowing complexion after every use! For those who are never pamper themselves or are simply time poor, this product is like a mini facial in a jar! Don’t just take my word for it though, read all the fabulous reviews too! Gemstone roller These little massage beauty’s (also touted as an “anti-ageing tool”) are an amazing gift idea, not just because they’ve become a beauty bag staple in recent years, or because they ‘look’ great but because they offer a multitude of benefits for the skin when used regularly and correctly. They can help fight wrinkles, stimulate collagen production, tighten skin and pores, increase blood circulation to the face, clear toxins, decrease puffiness under the eyes and around the face, and potentially improve inflammatory skin conditions too. They even have the ability to release tension and are soo soothing and calming on the skin. Unfortunately, there is no one size fits all though, with a range of gemstone options, it’s important to look at their individual properties and benefits to find one you think your mum would love! To find out more click there.

by Jo Boyden
on Dec 17 2021
Heading off on that much deserved holiday but not sure what products to pack in your beauty bag because isn’t everything essential?We all know when it comes to packing, less is always more so instead of bringing everything and the kitchen sink, it’s best to pack lightly by choosing multitasking makeup products, convenient packaging and travel sized skincare essentials, and at BC we have you covered!Read on for our go-to list of beauty must-haves to keep your skin healthy and glowing and your suitcase light this holiday season! ELES Age Defying BB Cream SPF 30Holidays are a great time to refine your makeup regimen to the bare essentials. A full face of foundation isn’t something any of us would want when we are spending days on the beach, relaxing by the pool or simply hanging out at home on staycation for that matter! But if you’re like me you won’t want to totally forgo makeup either! Instead, opt for a multi-tasking BB Cream! We LOVE ELES’s best-selling Age Defying BB Cream 30. Not only does it contain high factor SPF, but this tinted cream melts into the skin to cover blemishes for a unified dewy, and visibly radiant complexion too! What’s more, it has the added skincare benefits of hyaluronic, vitamin e, squalane and a multi-mineral complex too! Plus, it feels like you aren’t wearing makeup either! Amazing stuff. ELES Baked Finishing Powder in Diffused LightWe are all on the quest for those multi-tasking miracle products, and this product is just that! Your bronzer, highlighter, and foundation powder combined into one clever compact that you can simply swipe all over for your healthiest, natural looking glow! Yess!It’s a palette of gorgeous glowing warm tones that acts like a photo filter on your skin, subtle enough for daily wear, yet gives you that truly “lit from within glow” in seconds. I LOVE it and so do so many! ELES Cosmetics Custom PaletteJust as the name suggests this palette is fully customised which means you get to call the shots by selecting whichever product shades you want to insert, from a great selection outlined online. You need to pick a powder foundation, a blush and two eye shadows, all the products I live in (aside from my faithful mascara of course), and they come presented in a very sleek compact, perfect for on the go! What’s more the soft, powder formulas deliver rich, velvety, blendable colour that lasts all day! Pevonia Ultra Hydration Gift PackIf your skin is feeling a tad parched (it is the silly season after all) and could do with a serious boost of hydration, then this is the pack you’ll want to well pack! Featuring not one, but three Pevonia best-sellers (and my favourites too!) the products in this pack provide skin with the ultimate in hydration and skin-smoothing results. Including a free Ageless Skin Mask, Age Correction Marine Collagen Cream, and a Hyaluronic Acid Hydra Serum, you will be blown away by the results after just a few applications. Use the mask once a week, and the serum and cream daily morning and night and reap the benefits.For more convenient gift packs with travel friendly sizes click here. We have a pack for every skin type and concern! And for our discounted Christmas gifts sets full of our best sellers, click here. Pevonia Gentle Exfoliating CleanserWhile your sunscreen is an essential on holiday (wear it religiously!) don’t let it accumulate on your skin or clog your pores. You still need to gently exfoliate for fresh and healthy skin. For the perfect all-rounder exfoliator for all skin types, we LOVE Pevonia’s Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser. Formulated with jojoba beads, Saponaria and chamomile, it gently polishes skin with its unique creamy, granular texture, revealing a softer, smoother and brighter complexion after every single use!To learn all about the beautifying benefits of exfoliation and which other exfoliators might be best for your skin this season click here.
6 Father’s Day grooming gifts Dad will actually use and love!
by Jo Boyden
on Aug 27 2021
With Father’s Day just around the corner and the majority of us unable to plan the usual big family brunch due to lockdown, we are now faced with one of the biggest gift-giving dilemmas! What do you gift Dad to show him your love and appreciation?This year, why not ditch the usual drab and treat Dad to one (or six even) grooming gifts. I’m pretty sure there are a fair few Dads who might be needing that right now!Daily self-care after all is imperative in these times, and what better way than to treat him to a little pampering in the luxury of his own home!So read on to reveal our top 6 last minute grooming picks. Both your man and his skin will thank you later. The dynamic DuoPhytomer Homme Face & Eyes Gift PackThis rather suave gift pack contains two of Phytomer’s best-selling men’s products – Aqua Optimal Face and Eye Soothing Moisturiser and a FREE foaming creamy cleanser - Global Pur Freshness Cleansing Gel. Both products, designed to address the distinct differences in men’s skin, work together to thoroughly cleanse, calm, smooth and soothe. Dad will love the radical results of a brighter more youthful complexion after every use! The soothing miracle maskPhytomer Rasage Perfect Shaving Mask for MenI know many men appear to be using this time in lockdown to grow facial hair but there is something to say for keeping up appearances and I know with the amount of zooms my hubby is on daily, forgoing the daily shave isn’t really an option for him.If your man’s skin tends to be on the more sensitive side this product is a standout. It can be used as a daily shaving foam but also as a weekly face mask if he fancies giving himself a little bit of a full facial. It effectively reduces inflammation and prevents irritation for a smooth and comfortable shave.The new men’s multi-taskerAge Optimal Face & Eyes Wrinkle Smoothing CreamFinally, a skincare product your dad or hubby (my kids love to buy Daddy a present as well as make him some cute craft when it comes to Father’s Day) will love and look forward to using daily! If your hubby (or Dad!) is anything like mine, looking after his skin is likely low on his list of priorities (even with a wife who’s been working in the skincare industry for 20 years!!) When I recently forced said hubby (not under duress of course!) to trial this new product for research reasons (ha!) he promised me he would give it a go and stick to it so he himself could see the results! I am pleased to report that he is loving the product, he IS actually using it day and night and while it’s only been two weeks, both skeptical he and I have seen noticeable results – brighter, smoother, softer skin!Now for a little detail on the product. Instead of your usual creamy moisturiser, this anti-ageing cream has an ultra-refreshing sorbet texture which gives skin an immediate boost while decongesting and intensely hydrating both the skin and the eye contour, so really for the dad that’s been slow to embrace skincare, this is the perfect multi-tasking product. Easy to use, pampering, refreshing, anti-ageing and just right for a dull, tired complexion! Oh, and as an added bonus, the invigorating aquatic and woody fragrance transports you (or him should I say) immediately to the seashore! The complete facial kit and caboodlePevonia Limited Edition At Home Facial KitIf you and/or your kids want to play therapist and treat dad to a full pampering facial or a relaxation massage at home, we have all the products to help you do so! My kids love giving their Dad 5 minute massages! Whether he loves it quite so much I don’t know! And I’m sure they’d love to try their hand at a facial if they could too! Why not go the extra mile this father’s day and turn your home into a spa! Get Dad to relax to some soothing sounds, light some candles and follow these 5 simple steps to indulging him in a heavenly full facial.The must-have massage oilPevonia’s Micro Emulsion Massage Oil Anti-StressIf a therapeutic back and shoulder massage to alleviate Dad’s aches and pains is more what is needed (or more his thing) Pevonia’s Micro Emulsion Massage Oil Anti-Stress will be your perfect go-to product. With its gorgeous aroma and nourishing ingredients, it immediately releases pent up tension and relieves fatigue and muscle cramps.Oh and for fatigued feet and legs, Pevonia’s Tension Relief Gel is a must! It cools, refreshes, stimulates circulation and alleviates tension, heaviness and fatigue in the muscles as well as a heavy sensation in calves and feet. Yes, please!Want to learn about more of our favourite men’s skincare recommendations shop our website now.

by Jo Boyden
on Apr 23 2021
While we should show our love and appreciation for our amazing mums year round, I have to admit I do love a dedicated day to buy that special something for mum, and while I’m spending my pennies on her, why not make it into a day to gift and indulge myself too? Cheeky maybe but I’m guessing my 5 and 8 year olds aren’t going to know what mummy might love this Mother’s day! And whether you are a mum or not, we all deserve to pamper ourselves from time to time right?So whether you are on the quest for that perfect gift for your mum, looking for ideas to give to your hubby, or simply wanting to spoil yourself, because why not? It’s time to forget the flowers, friends and copious amounts of chocolate (because hey if you’re like me, you might still have enough to feed an army after Easter! Eek) this year why not spend your hard earned money on makeup and skincare treats that’ll not only last longer than a few days but will make you and your mum feel fabulous too! And what woman doesn’t love a good beauty buy! Phytomer Oligomer Well Being Sensation Essential Mineral Relaxing Bath Nothing induces relaxation at-home quite like an indulgent remineralizing bath. Coupled with a little music to set the mood and a candle here and there it could be said to be nearly as good as a pamper session at your favourite spa! We are loving Phytomer’s Oligomer Well Being Sensation Essential Mineral Relaxing Bath. This little gem really does create an unparalleled stress-relief experience. It’s lightly foaming and enriched with Oligomer – a partially sodium-reduced seawater concentrate that contains all of the remineralizing properties of seawater –to strengthen and restore the skin and release all pent-up tension. I need me one of these baths’ stat! Phytomer Marine Mist Scented Water with Oligomer This totally indulgent marine mist is the perfect spritz to cover your body from head to toe when you’ve stepped out of your relaxing remineralizing bath (or after a shower for that matter!) It’s an all-purpose skincare mist that quite literally soothes the mind and the senses for a moment of pure calm and relaxation, whilst showering your body in all the beautifying benefits of the sea, thanks to Oligomer, Phytomer’s emblematic seawater concentrate. Rich in natural ingredients it hydrates, brightens, and recharges skin cells. Usually reserved exclusively for the spas at the start of each Phytomer treatment, it’s available in retail for a limited time only and comes presented in a gorgeous blue Phytomer pouch! Yes, please! Pevonia Enzymo-Spherides Peeling Cream If no one else is going to treat you, why not treat yourself to an at-home peel. It’ll do wonders for your skin I promise. And no don’t let the word ‘peel’ put you off! Pevonia’s Enzymo-Spherides Peeling Cream combines natural fruit pineapple and papaya enzymes to eliminate impurities, blackheads, dead cells and toxins revealing silky soft, smooth and glowing Acids skin. You can thank me later! ELES Custom Palette As a busy mum the words makeup palette is music to my ears! Containing a slot for bronzer, blush and two eye shades, this super convenient compact is the perfect way to add subtle colour and radiance to your everyday look, but it’s also great for little touch-ups when on the go! What’s better with the ELES Custom Palette, YOU call all the shots. Whether you’re creating an everyday look, a look for nights or going for the perfect travel collection, this palette will be your go-to. Pevonia Home Facial Gift Set Everything you need to deep cleanse, exfoliate and hydrate your skin, this gift set is the holy grail of pampering and skin perfection in one! Containing four of Pevonia’s best-selling products; Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser, Hydrating Cleanser, Hydration Lotion and Age Correction Marine Collagen Cream, and samples of three skin brightening and perfecting masks; Collagen, Green Apple and Charcoal, each product will ensure you feel truly indulged while donning excellent results after every application and who doesn’t want soft, glowing skin every day of the week?
What to gift your mum if you can’t be with her this Mother’s Day
by Jo Boyden
on Apr 27 2020
Mother’s day is fast approaching, but with social distancing restrictions in place, this year’s special day might be looking a little different for many. Sadly that family brunch you had organised or your plan to whisk mum off for a facial is no longer possible, but it doesn’t mean you can’t surprise her with a drive by, organise a zoom get together or simply send her a beautiful gift, and I’m sure I can vouch for many of the mums out there in saying one gift I would LOVE right now is a little pampering treat to look forward to once this pandemic is over. After all, truly special gifts are ones to experience I say!Spas and salons might be closed for now but it doesn’t mean you can’t still send that voucher for her to indulge in at a later date. However, if you want her to enjoy something on her special day, why not bring the spa to her? By providing her with the right tools she can indulge in a DIY facial in the comfort of her own home.For a simple, yet luxurious facial you can gift her with a few key products - I know I’m biased but I can’t recommend enough Pevonia’s Age Correction Marine Collagen Cream, it’s my firm favourite – deeply nourishing and supremely anti-aging. What lady doesn’t need that in her life? And now this best-seller comes in a new Mother’s Day Gift set - with matching cleanser, lotion, gentle exfoliator and three masks (Collagen Mask for deep hydration, Charcoal Mask for eliminating toxins and Green Apple Mask for brightening) – it’s everything she needs to exfoliate, deep cleanse and hydrate her skin.Or for the ultimate salon-style facial at home, follow our step by step guide.This Mother’s Day might well be different from before but you can make it one to remember by still showing Mum how much you care, and in turn how she can truly care for herself too!
