I was recently introduced to the newly launched Natura Plumping Bio-Hydrating Serum, and being the sucker for hydration that I was, I immediately dropped it into my current rotation. It was opportune of course, that I had just run out 🙂
I was intrigued to have a go, as I generally fare quite well with Natura brand skincare products, and well, hydration is key, always.

It’s a little funny topic I know, but for the longest time, I’d been a fan of shower gels or liquid body washes. I love trying new ones, and all the lovely scents they come in. In the past, liquid soaps formed a part of my souvenirs from holidays and trips overseas, where I had access to different brands and scents.
We used bar soaps growing up, and I hated them because they’d get mushy quickly, and were awfully drying on skin. They also were heavily scented, and were so strongly scented that people would use them to scent their wardrobes!
I also found using liquid body washes easier. They are less messy, and you don’t find yourself bending over to pick up a slippery bar of soap every now and then LOL! 😀 They also come in scents that are more fun.
But while in lockdown, I found some bar soaps in my cupboard, and instead of wasting them, decided to have a go. I must say that I have been pleasantly surprised by how useful they are, and it’s changed my mind about using bar soaps! 🙂

So, here’s some products I’ve been using over the past few months, that I’ve really enjoyed using, and that I think are worth trying. They’re skincare products that have been around a while, but I don’t like rushing into trying and telling people about new skincare I’ve tried – you never know if it really works in the short term, and it’s only after long-term use, that you truly decide if it’s a keeper or if it’s not worth trying.
But these 4 products are worth giving them a shot, and here’s why! 🙂

Apparently, Brazilians love fragrance! And being a Brazilian brand, Natura embraced that love, and developed a range of affordable fragrances that you can purchase at their store and online.
A recent addition to this extensive fragrance range is the Natura Kaiak Oceano fragrance. I broke my self-imposed isolation to go to the store to have a look, because despite advances in technology, we still can’t smell through our computer or mobile screens.
I used to be quite partial towards oceanic scents when younger. There was something about the clean, slightly salty tang of oceanic fragrances that attracted me. I was curious to see if the Natura Kaiak Oceano fragrance might remind me of that 😀
