Natural Sponges

This is something new to me I am ashamed to admit as i usually use a flannel or synthetic sponge and saw nothing wrong with this.

Until I was contacted by Trevor Maurer from the The Sponge Market a supplier to the trade.

He gave me a brief on an article of interest the use of triciosan which is anti bacterial and used in synthetic sponges and other personal care products.

The FDA in the USA are concerned with Triciosan with links to cancer.

Natural sponges are naturally anti bacterial and do not contain Triciosan.

I found these sponges not only look good on the eye and compliment a bathroom  it is nice to know they are a health benefit.

Natural sponges can be documented as early as 8th century BC.

Trevor Maurer is passionate about these sponges and has told me they are sustainly  grown and harvested in the sea bed in Greece and Florida a luxurious bathing product kind to sensitive skin hyper allergic super absorbent and long lasting.

I am currently using the Honeycomb natural sponge size 5.5.

I love using this sponge you do get a lather more with shower gel than soap but when you use soap you feel your getting the soap really onto the skin and your skin feels silky soft so much so I skipped my body moisturiser so perfect for days when you don't have time to.

You also feel your not losing your soap to loads of lather a bit like shampoo with sodium laureth which is artificial lather I don't use shampoos with this,in fact for years and prefer it.

I can't wait to try the others and the baby sponge I am going to use on my 18 month old niece.

Cleansing cloths

What do I think of cleansing cloths as a Beauty Therapist.

Cleansing cloths have been around for sometime now and they are handy to have around when your tired or travelling of just haven't got the time.

I wouldn't use them all the time except for the Ole Henrikson ones if you have too their is other commercial brands and other companies but these ones I know more about them so that is why I am only blogging about these as they are high quality  their is different ones depending on your skin concern in the range.

What I like about Ole Henrikson ones see the one below their is a rough side for exfoliation and a smooth for polishing they are bit more expensive at £12 from memory but your paying for the research and the ingredients and the man behind them who I have met Ole Henrikson who knows his stuff.

I took mine to my brothers to try out and he now loves them you can buy from look fantastic,feel unique,Harvey Nichols and amazon if google ole Henrikson comes up straight away to his website.

Perfect for men as quick and easy.

Mane and Tail shampoo

I love this shampoo comes with a conditioner I got mine from Amazon for £15.

If it is good enough for Horses it is good enough for me.

I like how it gives good lather and brings out the shine the natural colour of your hair I won't have to use a semi permanent for couple more weeks as it has restored my hair back.

Anne Semonin Emulsion Marine

I came across this cream as a sample a couple of years ago and I loved the luxurious feel of it it has ultra light feel and absorbs immediately with no trace of oiliness great for combination to oily skin or used by men after shaving.

Contains extract of sea fennel and Shea butter which is soothing and moisturising and revitalising.

This product is really popular with men.
