Dr.PawPaw Arrives @ Boxed Beauty

You may have already heard of Pawpaw products on online but they are a little hard to get hold of here in the UK. Enter Dr.PawPaw, the multi use balm that comes in 3 formulations - Original and now Peach Pink Tint and Red Tint. They don't call it multi use for nothing! Use it on your lips, dry skin, cracked heels, nail cuticles, as a nappy cream... even as a finishing balm for your hair!

With the colour tint options, you can now add a slick of colour to your lips or cheeks.

Dr. PawPaw say - 'Our Pawpaw balms are made from a variety of natural ingredients including Pawpaw, Olive Oil and Aloe Vera Oil which, blended together, create a multi-purpose formula for you to carry around at all times thanks to the handy 25ml tube.'

The main ingredient is fermented Pawpaw, the fruit of the plant Carica Papaya. Pawpaw has been found to have many soothing properties which makes it a great balm for all areas!

We are already in love with the Dr. Pawpaw Original balm here at boxedbeauty, we can't wait to try out the tinted versions!

Spring Has Sprung!

2014 is flying by already! That awful wet winter weather seems to be leaving us now. Daffodils are raising their sunny heads and blossom is appearing on the trees. It's time to think about our spring skin routine! We have rounded up a couple of kits and an essential from Boxed Beauty to start you off...

Cleansed and nourished skin is essential to your well-being. Get amazing skin naturally with the Essential Burt's Bees Kit. It contains something for every part of your body: Soap Bark and Chamomile Deep Cleansing Cream is a rich, sulfate-free facial cleanser. Luxurious lather foams away excess dirt, oil and make-up leaving skin feeling clean and refreshed. Hands and feet are covered with hand salve and coconut foot cream. Moisturise lips with Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm. - £11.50

 

From Burt's Bees to Bee Venom. Purified bee venom to be precise. This ingredient is significant to the Manuka Doctor range, stating the synergistic formulations that are naturally good for you. Lead researcher Dr Sang Mi Han explains the science behind it all - 'Bee Venom works by fooling your body into thinking it has been stung, which causes it to send blood towards the affected area and stimulates the production of the naturally occurring collagen and elastin, which keeps the skin taught.' 

The Manuka Doctor Introductory Kit -  Apiclear includes a foaming cleanser, skin treatment serum and facial moisturising lotion. Use all together in a routine will help eliminate blemishes, nurtures cell regeneration, aids renewal of damaged skin cells and helps reduce the appearance of scars & wrinkles. - £14.00  

Illuminate your skin with Ginvera Green Tea Refreshing Brighten Up Day Cream SPF15. It provides maximum protection for skin against UV rays. It's non-sticky, non greasy formula is absorbed easily to allow skin to stay moisturised all day. The illuminating effect helps to provide brighter and fairer skin - £22.00

Small Business Saturday

Small Business Saturday, 7th December 2013,  is all about encouraging everyone in the UK to support small businesses, both on the day and beyond.

As we are all aware, the UK high street is in a very different state now to what it was 15 years ago or so. With many internet giants contributing to the closure of certain high street stores and small businesses suffering as the recession took it's toll, this is the day for awareness of shopping local and supporting businesses from small online stores to your local corner shop.

County Councils up and down the UK are showing their support by putting on events in town centers and offering free car parking to attract a crowd.

The UK site: http://www.smallbusinesssaturdayuk.com will be sharing tips and advice on how to grow small independent businesses and across social media.

So get involved and help support small businesses or promote your own this Saturday! All info can be downloaded here
