LoveLula Sonia's Favourites

Although I originally launched the company as a response to my son’s eczema, Natural and Organic has since become a way of life for the whole family. Knowingly putting harmful chemicals on our skin now would just not be an option.

Of course I’m in the privileged position of being able to try a vast range of products and have become a fair judge of which formulations work and which don’t.

I do expect the products I choose to work hard – like me! I don’t have much time in the mornings and my regime is well honed – years of trial and error do eventually pay off…

There’s no question that feeling confident about the way you look starts with good skin. I was hoping that one of the rewards of getting older would be a more balanced complexion – but no such luck. I still have break-outs and swear by Santaverde’s Xingu High Antioxidant Prevention Cream. If products also offer me anti-ageing benefits then so much the better - like Kimberley Sayer’s Eye Lift Gel.

The team here would swear I don’t wear make-up – which pleases me as I aim for the fresh-faced look! In truth I never leave the house without Mineral Foundation (Inika’s Unity Face In A Box is an absolute gem), Concealer (Inika again), Mascara (Bellapierre), Eyeshadow (Inika in Coco Motion – works as a Shader and Liner) and Lipbalm (currently EOS – what else?!)

My other daily essential is haircare. It’s a cliché but if my hair feels good then so do I. Mine is thick and dry and I wash and blow dry it daily so need a mild but effective shampoo – Gielly Green Classic is fail-safe range.

From my Madara Deodorant to my Inika Illuminisor, every product I choose delivers on its promise. But for me, knowing that I have chosen chemical and cruelty-free, planet-conscious, ethically produced products is a beauty tonic in itself.
