Stratum C compelete 4 total hand care cream review!

Hey friends I am so glad I am finally getting rid of this chest infection! I hope you are all keeping well.   Today I have a product review to show you the Stratum C Complete 4 Hand Care Cream.   Description Bringing science to skincare for when you need it most. High levels of active peptides to double collagen production, reduce existing wrinkles and replenish lost vitamins whilst using minimum preservatives.   Matrixyl peptides are clinically proven to boost collagen making your hands look younger by reducing the visible signs of ageing.
Keratin amino acids harden nails and help soften cuticles which are often compromised through menopause and the ageing process.
Complete 4 utilises TEGO® Cosmo, a natural, bio-identical ingredient proven in clinical studies to fade age spots and brighten skin.
Finally Complete 4 contains an FDA approved, non-toxic sun protection factor (SPF) system blocking 88% of UV rays without using harmful ingredients like Oxybenzone.
All Stratum C products are paraben, MI, artificial colouring and fragrance free using the gentlest of preservatives to protect your skin.
Price: £22.00

My thoughts The packaging is good and clear with all the relevant information printed on the tube. I found this hand cream a good size tube for the cost of this product as a little goes a long way for moisturising your hands. The cream is a white creamy consistency not to thick feels soft and smooth on the skin. It absorbs easily and quickly with no sticky residue. I found that there is a nice smell to this cream not over powering or strong at all reminds me of a sun lotion scent. I was very pleasantly surprised with this cream for the benefits it contains in the ingredients for your hands and nails.as this cream is not only for menopause Skin  or mature skin it great for all skin types and ages! effective and non greasy results in wonderfully soft skin. However If you over apply it you can be left with a slightly greasy feel, but as you get used to how much to apply, it gets a lot better.  my hands feel smooth, silky and hydrated My hands are improving as a result of using it. This hand cream is excellent  I have trouble with very dry skin. in the winter time so this is great for me!  I would recommend it .

Hi friends I hope you all are well? I am still poorly with a bad chest infection but recovering slowly.

For your introductory box you can choose both of your colours!!!!And probably receive a little gift.    I was sent this gorgeous polish to review called I had it first.  

   A soft hint of pink very sheer so you would need a few coats for a full effect.  Trust Fund Beauty polishes are 5-free,which is a bonus as you do not want nasty toxins on your lovely nails I know I dont!

Maple Holistics products review!

Hiya friends   I hope you are all well and had a marvellous weekend. I have a fabulous review for you today from Maple Holistics.    Maple Holistics is about natural hair, skin, and bath products.   

  First up is the shampoo.   Degrease Natural Shampoo for Oily Hair & Scalp Maple Holistics description
Oily hair occurs when the sebaceous glands secrete too much sebum. The signature Degrease formula can help balance moisture control by offering natural properties to help cleanse the oiliness off the hair, and provide the necessary nourishment to help prevent instant sebum build-up.

Lemon: Lemon is full of many nutrients, such as citric acid, vitamin C, calcium, magnesium, pectin, and flavonoids. It gently cleans greasy/oily hair, removing the excess oil without stripping away too much of the natural oil that the hair needs to keep the ends strong and healthy. This addition is also rich in anti-bacterial properties and provides a crisp and refreshing aroma.

Rosemary ct. Verbenone: The Rosemary used in this formula contains a high level of verbenone, which can help stimulate cell renewal. It is the Rosemary type best included in skin and hair care products because of its unique ketone content.

Cypress: Cypress has astringent properties and contains natural compounds δ-3-carene and α-pinene to help restore and regulate excess sebum secretion. It helps the hair achieve a less glossy look.

Basil: Basil leaves rejuvenate hair. In particular, it works to restore and strengthen brittle and thinning hair by stimulating the hair follicles.

Jojoba and Peach Kernel: Great for moisturizing sensitive scalps. These also help maintain hair volume, an essential component to preserving hair color. Jojoba, in particular, is a natural oil balancer and is highly effective in treating hair problems like grease, dandruff, and hair loss. The nutrients in peach kernel, on the other hand, condition the hair and aid.

Botanical Keratin: Hair nutrient deficiencies can sometimes stem from lack of keratin, which this natural ingredient generously replenishes.   My thoughts This product is simply amazing! I have just begun my journey in using naturally made products and this hair product is setting my standards high!

I am pleasantly surprised that my hair can look so smooth and silky with all natural ingredients.
A beautiful shampoo, with an abundance of natural and nutritious ingredients for your hair. These ingredients actually work.
it's a large good value size and it's a pleasure to use
My hair quality has improved greatly since using this.
smells natural, not too foamy, does not irritate eyes,
cleans well, leaves hair soft and healthy.
This product is highly recommended!
Directions:
Apply to wet hair. Massage into scalp & hair, working through the ends. Rinse. Repeat if desired. Perfect for ALL hair types and gentle enough for daily use.
Next is the Conditioner.   Silk18 Natural Hair Conditioner with Shea Butter & Jojoba Oil. Maple Holistics description Silk Amino Acids: Eighteen naturally-derived (literally extracted during the silkworms process of creating silk) silk amino acids prompts an assortment of hair and scalp benefits. Some of these benefits include strengthened hair fibers and natural restoration for flawless hair health. In addition, the high molecular weight of the silk amino acids results in the formation of a substantive film to increase scalp permeability. Includes L-Alanine, Glycine, L-Serine, L-Valine, L-Threonine, and more.

Shea Butter, Aloe Vera, and Green Tea: These helpful ingredients are fast-absorbing and commit moisturizing qualities to dry and delicate hair strands. Shea butter, in particular, contains vitamins A and E, making it an excellent natural moisturizer for the hair. It locks in moisture without leaving the hair greasy or heavy. The gel-like substance of aloe vera, on the other hand, makes it a great conditioning agent as well. It has a similar composition to keratin (the natural protein in the hair), which allows it to easily penetrate the entire length of the hair shaft. Green tea contains epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), which strengthens hair roots, activates hair follicles and promotes hair growth.

Pomegranate, Hibiscus and Sea Buckthorn: Certified blend assists in repairing damaged hair follicles to revitalize healthy, flowing hair. Pomegranate contains ellagic acid, which prevents the moisture in the hair from drying out. Hibiscus (“the flower of hair care”) helps prevent dryness, dullness, and hair damage. It also prevents problems like dandruff, split ends, and premature graying. Sea buckthorn, on the other hand, contains high levels of Omega 3, 6, 7, and 9, as well as vitamins A, B, C, D, E, and K that promote healthy skin and hair.

Argan and Jojoba: These two essential components help provide relief by moisturizing sensitive scalps. These also help maintain hair volume, an essential component to preserving hair color. Argan, in particular, is proven to make hair softer, shinier, silkier, and softer. It also tames frizzy hair and treats split ends. Jojoba keeps the scalp moist and stimulates hair growth.

Botanical Keratin: By definition, keratin is a family of fibrous structural proteins, which contribute to the composition of hair. Essential at every level, weak quantities of keratin can be the cause of frizzy and unmanageable hair. This naturally derived ingredient helps replenishes ideal keratin content for strong, durable hair.

Vanilla: Light and sweet, 100% natural vanilla undertones mildly sweeten the formula for an overall delightful and refreshing conditioning experience.   My thoughts  I like this product because it moisturises and restores my hair. I find that it leaves my hair silky and smooth and manageable and soft after use.
This product not only smells amazing it is fantastic for your hair.
I also find it good as a leave in conditioner and apply a little a few times a week on damp hair to add extra moisture.
One of the best natural conditioners I have tried.
all haircare products are sulfate-free and perfectly safe for colour-treated hair like mine. I recommend this product!
Last is the lip balm.   peppermint natural lip balm
vitamin E and sunflower oil.   My thoughts Very moisturising but not to thick.
Has a mint feeling on the lips and makes my lips very soft.
It did not really stop the chapped lips for me because it feels as if it just stays on the lips and does not
penetrate into the lips.
I would recommend this for a quick moisturising lip balm not for someone with chapped lips or needing extra hydration/care. nice soft feel to it, with a minty scent. Very good for a base for lip products because it does not have a slippy/sticky feel.
There is no tint just a clear white balm.
Overall is a nice product.   Many thanks to Maple Holistics for sending me these great products for review. You can check there list of products click HERE.
Don't forget I have a giveaway on my blog for nailart stamping plates! Click HERE to enter! More posts soon! Have a great day!
