Artisan Spa ‘Authentic Mermaid’ Soap and Lip Balm.

This is a site I have added to my favourites! The Artisan Spa is a dream come true to a girl like me – I am so passionate about luxury skincare WITHOUT ‘nasties’ added. By ‘nasties’ I mean SLS, SLE, parabens, alcohol, synthetic fragrances and artificial colourants. Products without these ingredients are very hard to find and I am so pleased to tell you that you will find some of these companies on Pampered Presents.

The Artisan Spa is my newest, and very impressive, discovery. The products are made in the UK which can only be a good thing for our economy. The retail brand ‘Authentic Mermaid’ is growing in demand and the number of awards it has won is ever increasing as well.

Inspired by the sea, this brand has some really great soaps and skincare products well worth purchasing. Offering only luxurious natural ‘kind to skin’ products, Authentic Mermaid’s range includes lip balms, soaps, bath froths and salt body scrubs.

I have sampled the glycerine soap and some lip balm.

Citrus Luxury Soap, RRP £5.95

‘100% natural glycerine soap, enhanced with golden jojoba oil and a final flourish of natural sea salt. A spa bar to nourish and cleanse the skin while uplifting and awakening the mind and spirit. The essential oil in this fantastic citrus soap bar was inspired by mediteranean citrus fruit blossom and the unmistakeable sweet tartness of freshly cut yellow freesia. This blend includes Grapefruit, Orange, Litsea and Bergamot, with amber notes of Cedarwood and Patchouli to uplift and awaken the mind and spirit’   (Artisan Spa)

This is a really lovely smelling soap which seems to last and last. I am using mine for the past 2 weeks and it still does not appear to be any smaller in size!

The soap has a delicious citrus smell – one of my favourite scents. The lather produced is smooth and bubbly and leaves skin super soft and super smelling too. Spa salts are embedded in this soap to nourish and soften skin, this gives a lovely smooth sensation – not rough like an defoliator. The glycerine base lets this soap offer moisturising properties as well as acting as a cleanser.

Plain & Simple Lip Balm, RRP £3.95

My 8 year old daughter is really fond of this lip balm. She would have really dry lips no matter whatever the weather. She seems to suffer as much during the winter as in the summer months. She has tried all make and types of solutions and is now using an Artisan Spa lipbalm from the ‘Plain’ range.

This range contains no scents so perfect for children.
