Winter Skincare Solution

If this year, you have made a resolution to take better care of your skin, or if  you are feeling the effects of the frosty weather on your face and need to nourish your skin, I have the perfect new product for you from Montagne Jeunesse!

Thousands of years ago, in Ancient Egypt, Olive Oil was used to help purify and cleanse skin – today Montagne Jeunesse has added a few extra scrumptious hydrating and nourishing ingredients along with a gorgeous scent to this wonder product to create its brand new Virgin Olive Masque.

This natural beauty treat contains nourishing and luxurious pressed Virgin Olive Oil which will leave skin super soft and supple and ultra-moisturising, rich shea & cocoa butter will give pores a delicious deep-cleanse. Skin is left feeling clear and clean plus Aloe Vera will help to cool and soothe. Olive Oil also has a high antioxidant content, which can help to delay aging of the skin. Our ancestors were on to something when they discovered this beauty-friendly oil!

Not only is Olive Oil totally nourishing to your skin, it’s nothing but natural oil extracted from the olive fruit with endless health benefits and essential vitamins. All this plus the cocoa butter we use are both Organic and Fair Trade certified.  And as with all Montagne Jeunesse products it is completely vegetarian and animal friendly.

So if you’re looking for a pamper treat that’s bursting with delicious and natural ingredients, look no further than the Montagne Jeunesse Virgin Olive masque.

To use, simply cleanse and thoroughly moisten face with warm water. Apply the masque evenly to face and neck, avoiding eyes and lips. Relax for 10-15 minutes and feel the Olive nourish your skin. Rinse with water, pat dry. Treat your skin twice a week.

Montagne Jeunesse Tottles Face Masques Review

Pampering With Montagne Jeunesse Tottles

Montagne Jeunesse have recently launched a new range of "Tottles"!  What is a "Tottle"? I hear you cry...well think of a cross between a tube and a bottle and you have it!  The tottles give ten applications of Montagne Jeunesse's luxurious face masque which means you can enjoy indulgent facials over and over again.  Alternatively, there is enough for you to get the girls round for a fabulously perfect pamper party!
The company's ethos is as perfect as their products.  Their products are lovingly made with only the purest, most natural ingredients, which are responsibly and ethically sourced.  As a vegetarian myself, the fact that all Montagne Jeunesse's products are approved by The Vegetarian Society is very reassuring.  They are also Cruelty Free and approved by BUAV with a strong committment to animal welfare.  They say:

"Montagne Jeunesse are vegetarian and animals are their friends - that's why they don't bash bunnies ar add bits of animals."

I have been fortunate enough to have been sent one of each of the four new fresh and delicious formulations to try for myself.  I have used the masques before, but had found that the sachets were quite messy and some of the product would go to waste, so the tottle was a perfect solution to this problem.  Just squeeze out the amount you need for one application then reseal...no mess. no waste!  You just have to smooth the sumptuous masque onto the skin, leave for 15-20 minutes while you lie back and relax, and then rinse thoroughly. 

TROPICAL PEEL OFF MASQUE

"Revitalising and rejuvenating, this exotic mix of fruits will give your skin an energy injection. Red Grape, Noni Fruit and juicy Mango work to revitalise and cleanse pores, lifting away impurities and dead skin cells, revealing a more glowing and radiant you."


The fresh fruity fragrance smelt very enticing and I've always enjoyed the feeling of peeling the masque off!  My skin felt really revitalised.

SENSUOUS SPICE SELF WARMING MASQUE

"Get cosy and comfy with this irresistibly spicy warming masque that heats up and opens pores, ridding skin of any nasties in an instant. A gorgeous and exotic blend of Cinnamon, which brightens and tightens, and uplifting Ginger, will leave your skin radiant and deep-pores cleansed."

I loved this.  It smelt like Christmas!  My skin went very warm and I could just imagine all the impurities being removed from my skin.  This would make the perfect, pampering facial for winter.

DAMASK ROSE DEEP CLEANSING MASQUE

"Renowned for its cleansing and super hydrating properties, delicate Damask Rose is infused with Africa’s miracle Marula oil to rid of anti-oxidants and seriously moisturise. Then the Shea Butter and Cocoa Butter join forces to soften and smooth for enviable silky skin. The lovely fresh floral fragrance is a damask delight."

This masque felt very moisturising and my skin felt soft and smooth after using it.  The rose scented floral fragrance is not one of my personal favourites, but my mum loved it.

DARK CHOCOLATE AND ORANGE DEEP CLEANSING MUD MASQUE

"Indulge in divine, dark chocolately orange bliss where moisturising Cocoa and Shea Butters combine with sweet Orange Oil, to deeply cleanse and nourish. Did you know that orange is jammed packed full of anti-oxidants which help protect skin from free radicals that bring on the signs of ageing? This ultra rich wonder masque smells like heaven on earth and is not to be missed when it comes to spoiling your skin."

This masque had a note on the back telling you not to eat it, and with good reason!  It smelt like a Terry's Chocolate Orange and the temptation to pop some on my tongue was strong!  It was rich and gorgeous and I felt thoroughly indulged, lying down, relaxing, surrounded by the delicious smell of chocolate...utterly heavenly and calorie free!

Total Chocolate Bliss

I really enjoyed putting the Montagne Jeunesse Tottles through their paces!  They are a fun, fresh, new product designed to make using the masques even easier with less waste and mess.  With the New Year approaching, it's high time for a new skincare routine and with Tottles you can discover the secret to a beautifully soft, flawless complexion!

The New Montagne Jeunesse Tottles are available from http://www.montagnejeunesse.com/ priced at £4.99 each.
