New Beauty Product From Elemental Herbology: SmartScreen SPF50+

Your Skincare Routine Just Got Smarter
When it comes to skincare nothing is as important as SPF so I’m always on the lookout for a new one. This one from Elemental caught my eye. It’s SPF50+. Let’s take a look…

It’s time to get smarter with your skincare regime, with the latest launch from award-winning skincare and spa brand, Elemental Herbology.The Smart Screen SPF50 is a feathery-light SPF moisturiser, enriched with skin-loving vitamins including Provitamin B5 and Vitamin E, and highly protective ingredients such as Pollustop and Aquaceria to shield skin from every day sun damage, blue light from screens and environmental pollution.The vegan, silicone-free and fragrance-free formulation is perfect for all skin types for everyday use either as a lightweight moisturiser, or in addition to your current skincare routine.SmartScreen SPF50+ 50ml, £45.00, www.elementalherbology.com


Vitamin E & Provitamin B5: contains antioxidant properties to protect from free radical damage and pollution, while locking in hydration and strengthening the skin barrier.
Anti-Pollution: contains the unique ingredient, Pollustop, to shield skin from damage and dullness caused by pollution, helping to maintain healthy, glowing skin.
Blue Light Protection: creates a physical barrier between the skin and blue light rays using the ingredient Aquaceria to reduce oxidative damage and early signs of ageing including fine lines and wrinkles.
Elemental Herbology is based on Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and the five elements: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water. The new SPF is the latest member of the Fire Element, perfect for all skin types and use across all the elements.
Each element is associated to a personality type, a season, colour, and even a taste and TCM informs us that each person has a unique balance of these elements. The Fire-dominant character is likely to be sociable, charismatic and often possess an infectious enthusiasm.
They make great leaders and friends, but exert a lot of energy which, when out of balance, can leave them burnt out. This new SPF, and the rest of the Fire range aim to bring this back into balance, re-energising skin, body and mind.

Brilliant Face Masks For Self Care

I love a face masks. People always notice when you have used one. It’s also great to take a few minutes out of the day. Nothing says self-care like a face mask. You feel the moisture locking in, you’re rewarded with instant hydration and can target specific skincare needs – dryness, acne, brightening etc, and you can just leave it on whilst getting on with other things! The post-summer, autumn/winter skin has been (if you’re lucky) exposed to UV rays, get togethers where you’ve had drinks or long nights, and really, for want of a better term our skin has taken a battering.  There’s a face mask out there for all, whether you prefer a sheet, cream or LED – we’ve rounded up some of our keepers…
