{Gifted} Ancienne Ambiance London Luxury Soap.

Hey there my lovelies. Welcome to Elegant Ageless Beauty, I’m Teresa.

I have featured this beautiful brand and their products before on my blog. Check out my previous post on their luxe soap HERE. When the company contacted me again telling me about the new soap fragrances and would I like to try them I jumped at the chance. 

The Ancienne Ambiance luxury soaps are just that! They are free from  parabens, and they are full of all the skin kind ingredients including Shea Butter and natural fine quality fragrance. These soaps did not strip my skin. The lather is really creamy and after using one for simple hand washing I found that my hands didn’t feel dry or crepey. 

Using the soap in my bath is such a joy too, I like to use with my bath puff smoothed over legs and underarms and it’s perfect for shaving with. 

The soap comes packaged in a cello type of wrapping embossed with black and gold, and it’s all safe to put into your recycling.

Each soap is 100g and embossed with the Ancienne Ambiance branding. My favourite fragrance is this one Bacca Berry. It’s fragrance is so fruity with Blueberries, Blackberries and Redcurrants just yummy! The fragrance lingers on the skin and when left on the soap dish in the bathroom, it permeates throughout, absolutley glorious.

Other new frangraces are;

Neroli Orange Blossom
Ambra Amber
Adriatica Fig

I’ll come back soon and let you know what I think of the other fragrances, as and when I use them. Neroli Orange Blossom I think. In the meantime check out Ancienne Ambiance Luxury Soap and other beautiful products HERE.

Thank you for stopping by today, lots of love and stay safe.

Australian Bodycare Tea Tree Oil Skin Wash

Welcome to Elegant Ageless Beauty, I’m Teresa.

I have wanted to try the body wash from Australian Bodycare for ages. I first saw it on QVC shopping channel a few years ago and thought then that it was right up my street. I was recently sent a tube of the Australian Bodycare Skin Wash to try, and for sure I wasn’t disappointed!

The Australian Bodycare skin wash contains  2% Tea Tree Oil. There are 110 varieties of Tea Tree Oil, and this one contains the Melaleuca alternifolia variety which does have the most beneficial natural properties of them all. It has neutral ph balance and is kind to even sensitive skin, while being antiseptic and deep cleansing for the body without stripping the skin of natural oils leaving it dry.

To give the skin wash a proper trial and because I don’t have a shower only a bath, I used only water when I filled my bath I didn’t add any of my bubble baths or bath bomb, I also used a clean bath puff (those net scrunchie thingy’s) I wanted to use it completely on its own. I squeezed a small amount into the bath scrunchie, and you really don’t need a lot, I cleansed myself in the usual way and rinsed. This body wash feels so cooling on the skin when I was using it, which has been lovely during the hot muggy weather we’ve been having in the UK. My skin feels so fresh and clean, clinically clean to be honest, there was no dryness, my skin wasn’t flakey at all, and for the skin issues that I do have on certain areas of my body it soothes it so it’s not itchy or sore, and because I’ve been using my body wash from Australian Bodycare every day that issue is almost clear. I need to get myself a full size, I’m finding it amazing and just what I need. Yes it does smell of Tea Tree but it subsides and doesn’t interfere with any fragrance I am wearing.

There are 3 sizes of body wash starting at 100ml then 250ml then 500ml which you can get HERE. Check out also the other products in the Australian Bodycare range HERE. I wouldn’t mind trying the Lavender!

Until next time

CALCOT MANOR “The Lazy Evening” GENTLE SALT SCRUB…..

Welcome back lovely people! 

I do love a nice salt scrub, especially if it originates from a spa, as this one does. This one is by Calcot Manor which is a country spa retreat and their products are sold in Tesco.

This salt scrub is The Lazy Evening Gentle Salt Scrub. It contains sea salt to exfoliate and smooth, and sweet almond oil to soften and hydrate. It also smells amazing too. After using, my skin felt soft smooth and moisturised and if I didn’t want too I needn’t have applied a body cream, but I did because that’s what I prefer.

(When I used this I applied it onto dry skin, including my feet and then rinsed off in the bath, we don’t have the shower working at the moment)

The packaging is lovely too, it looks like a “kilner” jar although it’s plastic, but it looks nice on my bathroom shelf. The product itself feels lovely, creamy almost gel like. The sea salt within it is of the fine texture and isn’t harsh when scrubbed onto the skin, it doesn’t scratch like some salt scrubs can. This is a lovely salt scrub and I’m enjoying using it. So if you’re shopping in Tesco pop one in your basket or you can buy online HERE  it will only set you back £3.99 which is a bargain for such a lovely salt scrub!

THIS PRODUCT IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE

Thanks for reading lovely people.
