The Beauty Oscars

This year the competition was tough, with hundreds of fantastic products on the market, but after weeks of putting the products through their paces and after much discussion and insider knowledges the judges finally made their decisions.

Although we are keen to try all of the final selection, the product which we felt stood out from the winners circle was Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula Skin Therapy Oil (£9.99 150ml), which came joint first alongside steam cream, both taking away the crown for Best New Everyday Skincare Product.

Often people shy away from oils simply for the convenience factor. Its understandable that covering your body in oil post shower and walking around naked waiting for it to sink in may not sound like the most appealing or convenient beauty regime, however we can assure you that Palmer’s is rigmarole free!

This oil is a multipurpose product which can be used all over the body. Its preservative free and contains a number of ingredients which work miracles on the appearance of scars, stretch marks, dry, damaged skin, uneven skin tone, aging skin and fine lines and wrinkles.

If you do have any scars or stretch marks then Palmer’s is a great place to start. Try incorporating the oil into your everyday skincare regime, taking extra care over the effective areas and applying the oil in circular motions. Palmer’s is particularly good for younger scars and marks, although you will notice gradual fading of longer standing marks after a prolonged period of use. If your marks are from some time ago, perhaps from fluctuating weight or pregnancy etc then another option is Bio Oil (£14.99 125ml). Bio Oil is one of the UKs top selling scar and stretch mark products and for good reason as it has been clinically proven to reduce visibility of both.
