ANNWYN Botanicals, Indulgent Body Crème with Mango & Ylang Ylang Flower
“A pot of thick and creamy deliciousness! Melts as soon as you start to massage it into the skin. Light floral scent which is uplifting and authentic but not overpowering. Texture is just perfect. It massages into skin like a dream and skin absorbs it quickly. It doesn’t drag, feels comforting and is extremely hydrating. Skin is left plumped and not in the slightest sticky. The condition of skin improved dramatically over the course of the month. I loved how soft and comforted it felt while using this.”
“Has made my skin feel soft, smooth and moisturised. It’s lovely and thick, so very nourishing. The whipped nature of the cream is indulgent and luxurious — this was my favourite element of the product and made me excited to use it each day. Even towards the end of the jar, the cream retained its lightness and didn’t deflate or become runny. I loved the texture.”
“Skin adored the cream from the first moment: no itching, no harsh rubbing just a gentle feeling of peace and protection for the dry bits like my ‘crocodile legs’. The fragrance is so light and delicate and uplifting. The more a used this cream the more I fell in love with it. So, so gentle yet quiet astonishingly effective. Total adoration for this wonderful body cream: doesn’t make any extravagant claims or promises; it just relies on the very finest ingredients and lot of love and care in the manufacturing. Nothing could, or should, ever be done to this magnificent cream. Perfection. This is how I want my skin to feel and smell for all time.”

No Secrets, Body Jelly; scent blend One
“Oh yes! What a beautifully packaged and presented product and so big and generous. From the moment I opened the large heavy jar I was hooked. Fragrance transports you to a sunflower field on a glorious summer afternoon and the honey texture of the jelly softens skin. You only need to use the jelly sparingly … it absorbs into skin effortlessly and leaves it feeling soft, conditioned and hydrated … almost translucent sheen to the skin which seems to reflect the light and give it a healthy glow. I am totally captivated by it”
“Luxurious packaging … Spa fragrance, which instantly relaxed me … texture of the product was so interesting — it starts off as a jelly consistency and then when applied to the skin you feel a warming sensation when massaged in and it turns into an oil which is a nice surprise … As the weeks went on I continued to enjoy using this product … the spa scent relaxed me after long and stressful days. Skin feels a lot more supple and nourished”
POWER BALM, Power Balm
“This is a great product and I was immediately impressed with the results. I used it to moisturise my hands which have been getting dry because of all the hand sanitizer and straight away it made my skin look and feel so much better. Throughout the course of the trial period I continued to be impressed. Whenever I used it really moisturised and helped my skin. This is the stand out product in the batch that I was sent and overall is one of my favourite products that I have ever been sent to test.”
“I was instantly impressed with this product, it spreads absolutely beautifully, going on quite thickly, but absorbing really quickly into the skin. It feels incredibly expensive and luxurious. After a month of testing, my skin has a lovely nourished glow to it, and with a little palm oil resting on the skin, it looks youthful and alive! This is an absolutely brilliant product from a strongly eco-minded company. I love how it can be used anywhere, and will deliver exceptional results.”
Pure Lakes Skincare Ltd, Mimosa & Petitgrain Body Butter
“Delivers on its claim to be ultra moisturising and calming — incredibly moisturising on dry skin. The essential oils make me feel I’m at a spa — uplifting and at the same time calming. Love the night-time ritual of smoothing this wonderfully fragranced shea butter into my skin with the waft of petitgrain and mimosa lingering on my body.”
“The texture is of a solid balm that turns into an oil-like texture once warmed in the hands. The fragrance is like freshly cut grass and like walking through a field of flowers. Very botanical but not overly strong or heavy. It was very uplifting. I love this product: it’s just so different and I love that it melts into my skin. So luxurious. Once i figured out less is more, I began to get the results I wanted. Has delivered and has made me happy.”
“Enjoyed the simplicity of using this product. It left skin feeling exceptionally soft and nourished with no greasy after-feel. Gorgeous, concentrated body butter which encouraged me to moisturise my skin more.”

Dr. Botanicals, Lemon Superfood all-in-one Rescue Butter
“Smells like lemon sherbets … very uplifting. Sank in easily and did not weigh skin down … skin felt instantly moisturised. Promises to rejuvenate, renew and invigorate dull and dry skin and I felt it lived up to these … there seems to be a simplicity and honesty about this product — it doesn’t have a huge amount of ingredients and just uses what is needed to provide an effective result, with whilst being pleasant to use. All in all, I thought this was really great”
Lucky Cloud Skincare, Soothing Super Balm
“Soft and buttery … I was initially concerned it might be greasy but the balm sank straight into dry skin and left it soft and sweet smelling, with a not overpowering floral lavender fragrance. The texture and fragrance make the balm enjoyable to use; it feels like a bit of a treat. A very good soothing, comforting all round rescue balm”
Naturally Gorgeous Cosmetics, Sweet orange and bergamot body butter
“Fabulous fresh sweet orange fragrance … texture lovely, mousse, butter, really smooth and soft and foamy. The body butter is all that I would want a body butter to be: applied to my skin, it instantly transforms into an oil and is absorbed so well … My skin feels soft and moisturised, there is a lovely sheen to my skin after use which makes my skin look more even and radiant. Feel my legs, décolletage, arms look brighter … skin feels healthier. It is lush.”
Steph Kilkenny Skincare, Triple Body Butter
“The texture is a silky cream, it felt both light but rich — velvety smooth — and the fragrance was intoxicating: like sherbet lemons but with some spicy undertones … The product glided onto the skin and sank immediately, leaving it silky smooth with a very slight sheen. I loved the whole experience … it was such a treat, and the moisturising effects were clear. I don’t normally enthuse about body butters but this one stood out for me as a premium product”
Vincent & Valerie, Intensive Body Butter
“Really positive vibes from this product … liked how uplifting the scent is, how quickly it absorbs and effectively it hydrates, how concentrated and multi-tasking it is, and also soothing on irritated skin. Love having the excuse for a bit of me time to massage this in — although it does absorb and dry quickly for a more balmy textured product. Maintained its greatness over the course of the month. My drier areas were so much more noticeably smoother, plumped, softer and it feels so self indulgent and lovely to apply. I just fell in love with it”
