Winter is a time where attention to detail when it comes to your skincare is really of paramount importance. The cold chill can so easily make the skin sensitive and prone to dryness. Often, the first part of our skin we tend to notice being effected are our lips. They can get so chapped in this weather! As I am currently writing this, the North of England has been engulfed by a flash snow blanket. Last night I went to bed and it was nothing but clear, starry skies and an unmistakable chill in the air. This morning, I woke up to an uncharacteristic quiet with barely the sound of any cars even in the far distance. This is the weather that looks beautiful, but that your skin needs protection to cooperate with and stay healthy in. So, if you were now thinking, 'How can I make sure my skin stays healthy during winter?' you're in the right place! I was kindly sent over some of Evolve Organic Beauty's skincare range, including their **NEW** Liquid Radiance Glycolic Toner and I am going to tell you about them. If you are on the search for some new products, then some of these are destined to join your skincare routine and I have every confidence you'll love them as much as I already do. So go and grab a cup of tea and snuggle down as I talk you through your new hero beauty products!
Liquid Radiance Glycolic Toner
I'm going to kick this beauty review off by talking about Evolve Organic Beauty's latest skincare launch. They have brought out a Liquid Radiance Glycolic Toner which is suitable for all skin types and is a 100% natural liquid exfoliator. It includes fruit extracts, willow bark which is excellent for cleansing skin and galactoarabinan (from Larch Trees). It is also a 100% natural product and it is also 64% from organic origin as well.
I personally always use a toner on my skin. I use it morning and night after thoroughly cleaning my skin. It find that it helps to remove any excess debris (even though there shouldn't be any - I am meticulous about this. Skincare is a lifestyle for me!). You simply wipe a reusable cotton pad over you skin with a few spritz of this product on it and it leaves your skin feeling very refreshed and also ready for moisturiser too. I think a toner helps to close the pores after washing your face too so that in turn helps to minimise the risk of getting any additional blemishes (always a good thing!).

"The Evolve Liquid Radiance Glycolic Toner is a 100% natural AHA/BHA liquid exfoliator to deliver instantly smoother and brighter skin. Blended with fruit AHAs and Galactoarabinan from Larch Trees helping to boost exfoliation and hydration, making it suitable for even sensitive skin." - Evolve Organic Beauty
Nourishing Hair Elixir
If you are also currently on the hunt for some fab new haircare, let me introduce you to one of the boushiest haircare treats out there! The Evolve Organic Beauty Nourishing Hair Elixir is so perfect for dry hair that needs new life breathed back into it. Split ends happen but they don't need to feel like straw! This elixir is specially formulated with Moroccan Organic Argan oil, mixed with Organic Baobab oil and Tahitian Monoi. It is a winning formula for controlling frizz and taming fly-away hair. Rich in antioxidants, it protects hair from environmental damages and helps regain lost moisture that comes from heat styling, clarifying shampoos and harsh weather and pollution.
This product smells so dreamy too, definitely give it a whirl if you are looking to try new haircare and also are making the beauty transition over to natural, cruelty-free brands and vegan products. It actually makes me feel like a beach babe, it has a wonderfully exotic fragrance that is unlike any other hair products that I have tried before. It's natural, sweet and slightly fruity and floral too. Honestly, Goddess-like.
The Super Powers of Plants
Some of the ingredients that are used in their beauty and hair care products are actually considered sacred due to their highly effective and luxurious nature.
♡
Tahitian Monoi: Considered the "sacred oil of the Polynesians", Monoi is made by maceration of thousands of Tahitian Gardenia blossoms into Coconut Oil. It has been a Polynesian beauty secret for centuries. Delicately fragranced, Monoi will help stop protein loss from the hair and therefore help to slow or stop damages. It reduces frizz whilst adding brilliance and shine for healthier hair.
Daily Renew Facial Cream
This is my favourite daily moisturiser and it has honestly made my skin luminous, glowing and super healthy, both in the way it looks and feels. Texturally, it is easily absorbed and deeply nourishes the skin. Makeup also applies perfectly over the top of it and it also has a delicate tropical aroma that I love.
It is ideal for those with normal - dry skin types as the blend of organic oils helps to effectively restore the skin back to its normal moisture levels. I have an oily complexion in some parts like my t-zone but I had a facial about a year ago and I was told by the beauty therapist that parts of my skin were actually really dry. I hadn't really considered the fact that other areas of my skin like my cheeks for example were actually missing out on that all important hydration hit, as I had just been treating all of the skin the same and therefor not providing enough moisturising for it. Since learning this, I have been much more conscious and made a concerted effort to treat all of my skin so that it is as healthy and nourished as it can be.
This fabulous daily face cream has organically certified Argan oil in it which is high in vitamin E and fatty acids that are essential for a youthful glow. It is also known to repair pre-existing damage as well as prevent further damage too. Vitamin E assists the skin's elasticity and leaves ski feeling plumped up and soft.
It also includes skin's best friend, hyaluronic acid, for soothing and hydrating purposes. Delicately fragranced with soothing hypoallergenic vanilla and coconut. It's honestly so dreamy!

Rainforest Rescue Blemish Serum
Ideal for combination / oily skin, the Evolve Beauty Rainforest Rescue Blemish Serum is a clarifying serum for breakout-prone skin, with organic acai, copaiba and willow bark. I think that sometimes when a breakout happens it can feel like you don't know where to start in terms of calming it and then getting rid of it for good, but this product does the hard work for you. You simply apply it to a cleansed face and neck and it treats the skin to prevent further blemishes. This works by educing the skin's sebum production. An excess production of sebum can congest pores which leads to inflammation within the pore (a blemish, eeek!). It is gentle enough to be used twice a day as well, so morning and night, this skincare wonder is your complexion's best friend.
Some of the key ingredients that make this product so effective are:
Willow Bark - A natural source of salicylic acid, helps to boost cell turnover and exfoliate without irritation, for a smooth and healthy looking complexion. (Note: Willow bark is not normally recommended in pregnancy, it is included at a very low % but best to avoid if worried).
Amazonian blend of Acai and Copaiba - This is proven to decrease sebum production and reduce the appearance of blemishes and open pores, leaving skin clear, calm and matte.

Bath Time Essentials: The Ultimate Pamper Treat
Evolve Organic Beauty make exquisite facial skincare, and they also make some top quality bath and body care products too. I love luscious moisturisers that easily absorb and leave your skin looking and feeling its best, with a fresh and fruity aroma. Their Citrus Blend Aromatic Lotion with Juniper, Lime and Lemon with a touch of herbal basil is perfect for hands and body, and truly smells so delicate, uplifting and fresh. (The fruity ingredients + juniper berries surely mean it's halfway to being a Gin and Tonic, right?!). It has a richness that nourishes very dry hands without being greasy which I love. It is the organic Shea butter which softens the skin so much, and the aloe vera which helps to sooth and calm irritation fast. The ultimate all over skincare comfort that will soothe your senses and make you feel you very best.
You may have seen me write about their wonderful African Orange hand and body wash and lotion before in this feature. Well, this is the same formula but with a different scent. The citrusy quality of this moisturiser lifts the spirits and makes you feel invigorated and energised. I love a really fresh smell as I find that it can really make you feel more awake and even energised! Needless to say both are delightful and will leave you feeling pampered. Plus the packaging is very aesthetically pleasing.
So there you have a super comprehensive guide to some of Evolve Organic Beauty's top skincare products! I am really enjoying using them and I will keep you posted over on my Instagram about how I am getting on with them and provide skin and hair care updates for you, so go give me a follow to stay up to date! Let me know which of these lovely products you'd most love to try out and treat yourself or someone special to. (Mother's Day is just around the corner and these skincare essentials would be a lovely treat for her!). Here's to pamper sessions every week and taking a bit of 'me time'! Love, Bilgi x
