Next to my concession is Liz Earle.

Be careful not to use more than one product containing phenoxyethanol in a 6-12 hour time frame!
Phenoxyethanol is a preservative, an anti-bacterial, and a stabilizer found in many products. Its a great alternative to parabens.
Products containing 1% or less are deemed totally safe by nearly all countries, however when using multiple products, each containing 1%, it adds up leading to over exposure of phenoxyethanol. So be cautious not to layer too many products with this ingredient at one time on skin. Over exposure can cause hives, rash, anaphylaxis, and dermatitis on adults, as well as animals and infants { causes nervous system damage in infants ages 3 and younger}.
Here’s a quote:
◇"Most of the concern stems from recorded incidents of bad skin reactions (on adults) and nervous system interaction in infants.“- Healthline
Phenoxyethanol Free Products:
◇ Caudalie VineActive Vitamin C Anti-Wrinkle Serum
◇Herbivore Prism 12% AHA 3% BHA Exfoliating Glow Serum
◇Josie Maran Argan Beta Retinol Pink Algae Serum
My opinion: its totally safe to use ONE product for adults containing phenoxyethanol every 6 hours. That way you wont get over exposure. If you like using more than one product on your face at a time try products that are free of this chemical to avoid harsh side effects. I feel using one or two products with phenoxyethanol wont kill you or even bother your skin ( in my experience) unless you are allergic.
Im totally investing in those products above to avoid over exposure. Lately my skins been very sensitive and red so i want to avoid any and all causes!
Bought my Sister a Bath Bomb for her birthday & the product just won an award - talk about good taste!
When it comes finding a gift online there seems to be an endless choice of products. I tried a few local high street shops but found the choices limited. My sisters birthday was creeping up and needed to find something fast. After a few Google searches I came across the site Delicate Owl which turns out to be an old colleague of mine from years ago.
Her site had come a long way with a great range of products, so decided to purchase something. I went for a Simply Lavender Bath Bomb as it looked great and was actually great value for money.
So my Sisters birthday came around and she was pretty impressed with the product. A few weeks later I checked out the site again and the product I choose has just won at The Green Parent Natural Beauty Awards 2016.
As a typical bloke I was quite impresses with myself picking an award winning product out of all the possible choices. If you get a chance I recommend checking the site out it’s one to look out for in the Health and Beauty sector.

We launched Greenwood Dist to prove that a black owned business can celebrate black excellence, while still making the dopest clothing on the market. We don’t believe in the idea that corporations or fashion brands shouldn’t take political or social sides. Here at Greenwood Dist we believe that fashion, culture, media, and art can and SHOULD be used to advocate and ensure that people’s voices are heard. Black culture is the biggest determinant of what’s “cool” and popular. Everything from the way society talks, to the brands that are popular, is determined by our culture…So why run from it?
Kinde is a new quarterly subscription service that offers products, style tips, advice, and much more to Black women who are embracing their natural hair. The best part is that it’s all tailored to your needs. Take our quiz to find out!
