A few 
years ago I was lucky enough to win a giveaway on Twitter and my prize was, I am very glad to say, a Miss Polly product. It was the first time I had heard of Miss Polly and her natural skincare range, even though she is a fellow Ayrshire lady! The product I won – her Repairing Foot Treatment, was not only my first ever natural product but the first of several Miss Polly products I would try.
So I may be showing my age here but when I heard of Miss Polly I automatically reminisced about watching one of my favourite films as a kid – Pollyanna, and her glad game! However now whenever I hear Miss Polly mentioned it isn’t Hayley Mills whimsical charm that has me ‘glad’ but rather its Miss Polly’s amazing natural products!
Miss Polly Natural Skincare is dedicated to making wonderful skincare using the finest natural ingredients possible. Everything is handmade by Polly herself in small batches so you can be sure your skincare is fresh and long-lasting. And every Miss Polly product is free from parabens, sulphates and artificial fragrances, as well as kind and gentle to sensitive skin – which is perfect for me.
In January Miss Polly had a sale so I decided to snap up her best-selling product and try it for the first time. And I can say my dry skin is very glad I did!
A lovely blend of essential oils and natural plant oils, Miss Polly promises her Radiant Skin Rosehip Facial Skin (£16.95) will soften, nourish, repair and protect skin and I can gladly say it did just that for me. If you have been reading my blog you will know that I have been battling a war on dry skin lately. Since I turned 30 my skin condition seems to have changed dramatically and I have been trying to perfect my cleansing & moisturising routine. This little moisturising gem has proved its worth and fitted itself nicely into my new routine. I now use this every night after I have fully cleansed and I am starting to really see the benefit of it, my face feels softer, more nourished and perhaps not radiant yet but there is a hint of a glow appearing.
A wonderful treatment for normal, dry and sensitive skin types the little 30ml bottle of joy contains some lovely oily goodness including rosehip oil, jojoba oil, meadowfoam oil, apricot oil, vitamin E, lavender, geranium and rosewood essential oils.
This isn’t the first Miss Polly product I have used. The first I tried, as I mentioned above was her Peppermint Repairing Foot Treatment (£12.00)
I often get dry cracked heels and when I used this for the first time I was amazed at how quickly it helped, even my other half started stealing it.
We both used it nightly and as promised it helped our feet get back into tip-top condition pretty quickly. The 45g pot lasts for ages as you only need a small amount and ingredients include organic shea butter, cocoa butter, safflower oil and vitamin E. The peppermint essential oil cools the skin instantly, while the organic shea butter and cocoa butter aids skin repair.
The next product after this that I tried was Miss Polly’s Lip Balm (£4.95) . I went for peppermint, however you can also choose from Mandarin or Pink Grapefruit.
This paraben & petroleum free lip blam is great for dry and cracked lips. I recently had problems with dry lips and some of my fellow green beauty bloggers reminded me of why I should be ditching my vaseline and I remembered how much I love Miss Polly’s lip balm.
Talking about lip balms, Miss Polly has just launched an exciting introduction to her skin care range – Make you own lip balm kit, so instead of a new pot I think I may treat myself to this little kit.
You can choose from the following flavours: Tutti Fruity, Chocolate, Peppermint, or unflavored. The kit makes 5 x 10ml lip balms and includes 5 jars, full instructions and 5 personalise labels. There is a SPECIAL INTRODUCTORY OFFER at the moment on the Miss Polly website. You can buy the kit for ONLY £15 UNTIL FEB 28TH (£16.95 thereafter).
In my opinion Miss Polly skincare products are amazing, packaging charming, Polly herself is lovely and her customer service is so friendly, so if you haven’t discovered this great natural skincare collection already then check out her full range, you will be GLAD you did, I know I am!
Please note this is not a sponsored post, the items I mention have all been bought and used by me (except the make your own lip balm kit), photography is from Miss Polly website, because my camera wouldn’t take nice enough pictures.
