Sakare Soothing Shower Oil Review

I'm not a shower girl...I need to feel relaxed and pampered and not in a rush. Bath time is my favourite time of the day and I always make time for it. Bubbles, music, candles, sometimes wine. I know, I'm a cliche, but that's me. My friend Joanna was recently raving to me about how amazing the Sakare Soothing Shower Oil is and that I should try it out a couple of times a week and try to be a bit more environmentally friendly by saving water. Unwillingly. I gave in to the peer pressure and here is what I thought:

The shower oil felt really silky soft when I rubbed it into my skin. Lathering slightly you do feel that it is doing a good job of cleansing as well as moisturising. Although it might not be as relaxing as lying in amidst the bubbles there was something rather luxurious about it.

When I came out of the shower and dried off I realised that my skin had still retained the moisture from the oil and so I didn't need to spend any time rubbing in moisturiser like I usually do.

The oil has a gentle yet beautiful aroma which stayed with me even after I had dried and dressed.

In order to try and inject some more luxury into my shower I made sure the water was extra hot and lit some candles for a relaxing atmosphere. I saved so much time and still felt pampered thanks to the help of Sakare. Not sure I will be converted to a shower girl just yet but a couple of times a week I am now taking the quicker option.

If you swear by a quick shower then you will just love this product. It's a time saver's dream!

Sakare Mud Mask Review

As promised I am back again with another review and yes it is another product from the range at Sakare! After being extremely satisfied with my last purchase (anti-wrinkle cream) I had to go back to try something else from the luxury brand.

This time I decided to try the Intensive Nourishment Mud Mask which is suitable for all skin types. Again this is another anti-ageing product which has properties of Indonesian nyamplung oil and borage oil, rare natural ingredients which I was told are known to get results. As I mentioned before, I am constantly looking for anti-ageing products which actually work because my skin has pronounced wrinkles, making it look older than it's years. All the products I invest in turn out to be gimmicky and not worthwhile.


One of the best-selling masks in the range, I was excited to try it out. As soon as the kids were off to bed it was me time. Glass of wine and the Sakare mud mask....heaven! It smelled and felt amazing on my skin. A true moment of luxury and self-pampering (something we sometimes forget the importance of!) But let's cut to the chase and talk about what is really important...the results.

I can honestly say that after just one use my skin has a youthful radiance that wasn't there before. Skin tone is evened out and my skin is wonderfully hydrated, reducing the appearance of my fine-lines and wrinkles. An intensive treatment, I was advised to use once a week, although I would recommend to also use before an event where you would like your skin to look particularly radiant. The intensive nourishment mask is a great anti-ageing treatment, and also a great detox for skin that constantly faces the pollution and environment of daily life.

Recommended for anyone who wants to give their skin a nourished and youthful new lease of life. Also a great gift idea as it is suitable for any complexion...will be stocking up before christmas!
