So I've banned anything containing it and I'm enjoying a range of more natural products now.
But as luck would have it I happened across this new company:
Mt Raw Skincare and I've been trying some of their products, so thought I would review!
I've tried:
Raw Hemp Body Moisturiser
Raw Jojoba Mild Facial Moisturiser and
Raw Rosehip Wrinkle Repair
The products arrived safely, incredibly well packaged and I love the contemporary design of the boxes.
And could there be a more beautifully simple ingredients list?! Just pure organic oils. Wonderful.
Each has just a delicate fragrance of the natural core ingredient - but not so much as to be too pungent or offputting.
The moisturisers have a pump dispenser which works well and the wrinkle repair has a dropper that's ideal (you only need one drop near each eye!).
They do feel very luxurious to use and although they might seem quite pricey, its clear they will last me a long time, so actually they're very good value. The dark blue glass protects the oils from daylight so the shelf life will be good as well.
all totally organic |
But most importantly I've suffered no adverse reaction to these oils at all - my skin seems to drink them in and infact 2 slight dry patches I suffer with have dissappeared and as I use the facial oil last thing at night I wake up with my skin feeling lovely and soft and smooth. I'm pretty sure that my laughter lines (yes, thats what I'll call them at my age) are looking a little less obvious as well ;)
All in all I'm loving these products. They're certified organic (which is even better to know when you're living a vegan lifestyle), registered with BUAV and for peace of mind they're also registered with the Vegan Society Trademark.
You can find out more and buy your own here.

I was sent these products as free samples to trial. My review remains, as always, impartial, genuine and unbiased.
Hi Stella,
ReplyDeleteThese sound great! I'm currently getting into the natural beauty scene - would you say the hemp oil body moisturiser is any good?
Thanks,

Sorry for delay in reply for some reason I only just got this comment! Yes I love the moisturizer - its great, absorbs into skin well & I have allergies to products that are full of chemicals so this suited my skin really well.
DeleteWhat does the 'raw' mean in this context?
ReplyDeleteSorry for delay in reply - I only just got your comment for some reason! I would imagine that they cold press the seed and its never heated to above 44C. Please enquire with the company for exact details though.
