BEENIGMA

All In One Face Cream

Review!

http://www.beenigma.com

Here's a fun fact that is sure to blow your mind. At least it completely blew mine and took me by
surprise. Bee Venom is the big new trend in anti-ageing skincare! Say what?! I know right! How
bazaar you say? Well let me explain, and trust me it's worth a try!

Let me introduce to you Beenigma, a cruelty free New Zealand skincare brand which uses the venom
from bee stings in a safe and pain free environment for the bee in which they release a small amount
of their venom without loosing their stinger, therefore not losing their lives like bees normally would.

The powerful bee venom tricks the body into thinking it has been stung (Obviously this product is
NOT recommended if you have a known allergic reaction to bee stings!) without causing any pain
or inflammation to the skin, however mild tingling may be felt. Rather the venom actually contains
anti-ageing properties including amino acids, peptides, enzymes and other replenishing proteins all
working together which smoothes the skin, reducing the appearance or wrinkles and plumping up the
skin giving it a more youthful and lifted appearance.

The other two key ingredients used in this facial cream are some of my personal favourites! These are
Manuka Honey, Shea Butter and Almond Oil. I have used all of these amazing ingredients in products before and just love the hydration, scent and caring nature and feeling each gives to my skin.

Manuka Honey (which I also regularly buy and eat on my toast most mornings) is a richer, darker
form of natural honey. On it's own this delicious sticky substance has it's own super powers including
being anti inflammatory, anti bacterial and anti-ageing. It also contains amino acids, antioxidants and
is one of natures more powerful skin healers which makes complete sense to use this for repairing the
skin in turn making it young again.

Shea Butter is soothing to the skin and also replenishing which I think is a perfect partner in this bee
venom cream. The Almond Oil is super hydrating and absorbs into the skin fast. It gives caring
nourishment to the skin.

This gorgeous blend of ingredients create this creamy yummy scented day and night cream which is
thick and white in appearance. This luxe 50ml white and gold jar comes with a small scoop stick to
help with application and avoid contamination in the cream.

Beenigma is available to purchase directly from their website for current RRP of $124.95 which
includes free shipping!

BOTANICES

~ BotanicES ~
Environmentally Sustainable!

Natural Caffeine Skincare!

Body Creme 100ml
This generously sized 100ml body creme has been what I have been using everyday coming into
Spring with the weather warming up and more of my skin being exposed. (No more living in my
trusty old jeans!) It is important to me to have my skin well looked after and that means lathering
up on the moisturising to keep it not only looking it's best but actually being the best it can with a
little help from some natural skincare that actually works!

This stuff feels so soothing on the skin which probably explains why it can also be used as an after
sun skin soother! The creamy, almost skin toned formula doesn't take very long at all the soak into
my skin so I know it's working and not just sitting on the surface.

The scent to this is extremely subtle, most probably wouldn't even notice a smell even though it's
packed full of gorgeous beneficial ingredients for the skin which each smell uniquely lovely in their
own right including - Coffee Extract, Jojoba Oil & Coconut Oil.

The Coffee Extract works to energise and revitalise the appearance of the skin whilst also toning,
smoothing and hydrating the skin by up to 59%! Now that is impressive!

Face Creme 50ml

In conjunction to using the Body Creme, I have also adopted BotanicES's Face Creme into my

everyday skincare routine and this 15ml tube goes a long long way! You only need to use 1-2

pumps of this light formulation with each pump about the size of a small pea. I love that I am going

to get some good use out of such a small product. Very cool! :)

Contains - Coffee Extract, Olive Oil, Coconut Oil, Kakadu Plum Extract, Vitamin E, Shea Butter

& Licorice Root Extract. (You might expect the Licorice scent to be an overpowering force, however like the Body Creme, there is barely any scent at all!)

It has been a lovely indulgent pleasure to have been using this Face Creme over the past few weeks

and I don't plan on stopping any time soon!

Eye Creme 15ml

Applying an eye creme really is such a vital a step in in every woman's skincare regime. Ever since I

began doing it I haven't stopped. I am not fussed so long as it works and this one definitely does!

Very similar to the Face Creme when it comes to the ingredients with this formulation also containing

Coffee Extract, Coconut Oil, Olive Oil, Licorice Root Extract, Shea Butter, Kakadu Plum Extract and

Vitamin E. This product actually appears completely different than the Face Creme. With just one

pump which gives you a small pea size amount this darker, slightly more translucent creme soothes

the eye area and feels very relaxing and over the past few weeks I can really see a difference in the

fine lines around my eyes. There are significantly less and the skin seems to be more toned and less

saggy. Nice!

Again virtually no scent and did I mention BotanicES is an Australian made & owned company that

doesn't test on animals?! Big plus there, plus let me list for you a whole bunch of other super

environmentally friendly benefits this company stands by which leaves me to wonder, why can't

every other company follow this one's perfectly brilliant example?
