Aussie, Aussie, Aussie…Oy! Oy! Oy! I hope you are having an amazing Australia Day BBQ somewhere! This post is my opportunity to showcase and review a few Aussie Natural products for you on this day that celebrates what it means to be Australian. Enjoy!
I discovered Olive By Langois after receiving their Vanilla Lip Balm and loving it via the January I Love This Box and they kindly sent me a range of their products to review. This family-owned company from NSW grows and presses their own olives and produce a range of natural skincare products.
What They Say
“Natural Day Cream- 100% Natural. Now with added Olive Leaf Extract. Use it every under makeup to moisturise all day long.
Natural Mandarin & Vanilla Hand Cream- With a sensuous mandarin fragrance and all the goodness of the olive, this cream will soothe for hours.
Every Skin Lotion – with Seabuckthorn, Olive Leaf Extract, Calendula and Kakadu Plum to soothe, and restore skin all-over, that is dry, irritated, sensitive and sun damaged.
Raspberry Facial Scrub -100% Natural. Enriched with natural Raspberry fruit extracts and Jojoba beads. Its gentle exfoliating action is designed to leave your skin feeling soft and vital.”
What I Like…
I love that this range is beautifully scented and natural. The products feel luxurious and nurturing on my skin and are thick and rich, not watery or runny in any way.
The Day Cream is very thick and botanically scented. A little goes a long way and I can see this tub lasting a long time. It leaves my skin feeling plump and hydrated.
The Every Day Skin Lotion isn’t as thick at the day cream and I can see this being a great body lotion. It absorbs quickly and has left my skin soft and refreshed.
The two stand out products for me are the Natural Mandarin and Vanilla Hand Cream and the Raspberry Facial Scrub. The hand cream smells like vanilla when you first apply it but the spicy mandarin fragrance becomes dominant when you start rubbing it in and I just love it.
As for the Raspberry Facial Scrub it’s an absolute winner. A gorgeous raspberry scent (i’m all over products that smell good!) and gentle jojoba beads that exfoliate without scratching or irritating my skin. Just beautiful.
What I Dislike…
I personally love the scent, but if you are not a fan of scented products some of these will not be suitable. Also, if you are looking to buy these products in stores you will have to hunt around for them as they are not available in many mainstream stores, but they are available in a lot of health food stores and online.
The Natural Day Cream $39.95 AUD (50g), Natural Vanilla and Mandarin Hand Lotion $15.95 AUD (50g), Every Skin Lotion $24.95 AUD (200ml) and Raspberry Facial Scrub $19.95 AUD (50g) are available from Olive BY Langois online and from these stockists.
This product was kindly provided for review by Olive by Langois, but as always, my opinions are my own.
