I find that having a good skincare routine is vital, especially for my mental health. I used to have such a great skincare routine, if I say so myself. I treated my body so beautifully. And then I became a mother, and…well, let’s just say that I’ve let things slip a bit. So this year I’m making an effort to get back to my old self and take care of this body. I’ve been using this luxurious body oil from Rebel Blends, an independent British company, and it’s given my skin the well-deserved boost it deserves!
I don’t normally have problematic skin by any means, but I have noticed it is becoming quite dry lately. Life is very hectic lately with a 13 month old, and my shower routine is literally 5 minutes now; I’ve simply been throwing clothes on the second I get out of the shower, foregoing any type of moisturizer, so I can get back to chasing him around. The winter months have not helped this either. My skin has been screaming for moisture!
I’ve been using The Spicy Blend, with Tonka & Peppercorn, for a few weeks now. The scent alone is absolutely gorgeous. It’s very light and not too overpowering, yet lingers so you smell hints of it on and off all day. The product itself does in fact work very well. I’ve used so many body oils in the past, and I’ve found that a lot of them tend to sit on top of the skin, making it feel greasy. The Rebel Blends Body Oil sinks into the skin immediately, instantly nourishing it and sealing moisture into the skin.
After using it for the past few weeks, I have to say, I am very much impressed with it. I apply the body oil after I get out of the shower, and can feel it instantly moisturize my skin. It looks absolutely radiant afterwards! I use it all over, targeting the areas that I feel need the most love. They also say that it prevents the appearance of stretch marks. I’m not sure if it has any impact on present stretch marks, but I’ve definitely not noticed any new ones!
Only a few drops of body oil are needed; trust me, a little goes a long way with this product. It’s £39 per bottle, but you will definitely get your money’s worth – it comes in a 100ml bottle so it will last a while! Plus, they’re offering 20% off your first order using ’20OFF’ so there’s really no reason not to give it a try, especially if you’re a skincare junkie like me.
