  • I've always had allergies and eczema and it's really important to me to buy as natural products as I can, so I was very excited to find these beautiful Lip Balms.

    • They come in very sweet little tins which are 8ml in size. 

This tin is pink as it's the Rambling Rose scent. 

The ingredients are all completely natural and can be seen at the figs and Rouge website: http://www.figsandrouge.com/ingredients/

The best thing about this wonderful product is it's flexibility, it can be used for almost everything! I use it mostly as a lip balm and moisturizer for dry patches, but many use it for cuticles, dry heals etc  

The smell is beautiful and very fresh and delicate, and lightly fragrances the skin for hours. The moisturizing qualities are light but still effective and I really feel this is a perfect lip balm for many, as well as being completely natural and good for the skin.

so, overall, I would recommend the figs and Rouge lip balm to everyone, it's effective, handy, cute and useful!

** Today's homemade beauty treatment ** - Oatmeal exfoliant

Oatmeal has many amazing properties, including being an exfoliant, astringent is anti-inflammatory. 

To get started, grab yourself some Oatmeal, or rolled oats (depending on where you're from!) and stand over a sink. Grab a handful of Oatmeal and close your fist. Hold your closed fist under the tap, letting a little water in so the oatmeal become slightly damp. Then squeeze it, it should release a milky water. Then with the other hand grab tiny amounts and begin rubbing it on your face until your whole face is covered in Oatmeal. If it won't easily spread then add more water. Then, as you would with any exfoliant, gently massage your face in circles, moving the oatmeal around. This is exfoliating your face. After your done, simply wash off the oatmeal with water. Make sure your stood over the sink at all times whilst completing this process, as it can be very messy.

If you fancy a face pack, try mixing oatmeal with manuka or normal honey and applying to the face.
