Skin Yoga Skincare

I am a big fan of natural skincare and bodycare, I am always more drawn to natural products! I have so many brands and product favourites that are more natural such as Antipodes, Dr Botanicals, Lush and Tisserand so when I get the opportunity to try more natural products, I am excited!

Skin Yoga is a 100% natural skincare brand that is fragrance, preservative and paraben free as well as cruelty free and vegan friendly. It is founded by three sisters and all of the products are made in India using natural ingredients.

I received a couple of minis sizes to try out and they came beautifully packaged as they both came in little wooden boxes! How adorable is the packaging and I know I am going to re-use the boxes again - I'm going to try and plant a succulent in each one!

*Skin Yoga Almond Orange Face Scrub (£15.92, full size) 

The bottles for each product are adorable too as they are little glass bottles with a cork stopper! The ingredients for this face scrub include: almond meal, dried orange peel, chickpea flour and organic turmeric, that's it! It is a grainy scrub that is a little messy but it does work well as a gentle exfoliator on my t-zone which is where I need the most help in terms of exfoliating.

It is a really lovely face scrub, it has a pleasant subtle scent and it doesn't irritate my skin at all. I have used it a couple of times now as I only use face scrubs once a week and I really like it although I'm not wowed by it and as it's a sample size, I can only get three uses out of it. Overall rating: ★★★☆☆, 3/5.

*Skin Yoga Sandalwood Saffron Face Mask (£21.96, full size) 

As with the previous product, this one is 100% natural and it has a grainy texture - due to the dry, grainy nature of the product, I didn't really know how it would work as a mask but when combined with a small amount of water, it adheres well and it means that a little goes a long way; even so I can only get two uses out of it.

I just used it on my t-zone as it's the area of my skin that needs the most exfoliating and deep cleansing as it's always congested *gross, sorry*. The mask smells nice, it is gentle and doesn't irritate my skin but I find it doesn't do much else. Sure, my skin is smoother using the scrub and mask but it's not massively impressing me and the price is a little high in my opinion; however I do still like both products and the packaging is gorgeous. Overall rating: ★★★☆☆, 3/5.
