Oh, spring. Filled with flowers, outdoor yoga and skincare switch ups. This month I’m sharing my latest and greatest finds with you – and what I’m using now.
Make sure to connect with me over the weekend, as I’ll be in NYC finding all things good and natural. Follow my journey on Snapchat (add snap.kate) and on my Instagram (@livingprettynaturally).
Bottega Organica Rejuvenating Face Scrub
What to say about this beauty, other than I am loving it wholly and fully. Sea salt and lemon for scrubbing, lightening and brightening. This is a glow getter. Mediterranean sea salt combines with purifying thyme and lemon to cleanse and purify the skin (no more dead cells here)! The organic shea butter, beeswax, carrots and apricots nourish and soften. The result? Walking away with some seriously soft, dewy and glowing skin.

Annmarie Skin Care Earth Minerals Foundation
This is no newbie to the pages of LPN, but today it deserved a comeback. This month I received a new order of some of my favourites from Annmarie Skin Care (as you know, one of my favourite brands). Why is it brought back? Because my love for it is still full force and you need to know about it. I use this foundation daily (when I’m not testing new product) and it is brilliant, uber coverage, uber natural and get this — LIQUID. Yup, it’s a liquid foundation. You mix this powder with a little facial oil (comes in the package, but not pictured) and create a perfect creamy, flawless foundation. Yup. An official, “scream from the rooftops” item on my LPN LOVES.

I wear the colour sand, but check out the sample kit first to see what is best for you.
DoTerra Essential Oil Blend in Balance
I love essential oils, and this year I jumped into exploring the world of DoTerra, thanks to inspo from a fellow yogini here in Oslo. Mornings are beautifully entered into with some Balance diffusing around the room – and it’s also a brilliant addition to your at home yoga or meditation practice.
The balance blend is Spruce, Ho Wood, Frankincense, Blue Tansy, and Blue Chamomile with Fractionated Coconut Oil. It’s a fantastic blend to diffuse just to ground down and feel connected to mother earth. Lavender and Balance blend are my faves at the moment for lowering the shoulders and stressing down.

DoTerra Essential Oil Petal Diffuser
I’ve also recently purchased this new diffuser from DoTerra. It’s a powerhouse, filling up a large open landscape apartment within a few minutes. It’s also pretty and soothing, with a light that you can choose to have on or off (great if you want to fall asleep to a little chamomile or lavender aromatherapy).
I’m also loving that it can go for hours — 4 at its top! Absolutely perfect for when you’re entertaining too!

Annmarie Skin Care Repair Serum
Yup, here she is again. Again, because I did my own order this month, I had a lot of product to re-add to my routine. This one I’ve missed for a while. I’ve been without it while I’ve been testing new products these months and I wanted to reconnect with it (yup, reconnect with a face serum – ha) while I was in between serum testing. It’s just as I remembered. I use it for treating sun spots, “age spots” (basically hyper pigmentation) and acne scarring. It’s base is aloe vera, which is fantastic for these purposes as well as general anti-aging.
I wear this serum under my facial oil morning and night. After I’ve applied my serum, I then use my facial oil and finally I spritz with a hydrosol.

Living Libations Maidenfern Blushing Balm
Now this is a cool little addition — a blushing balm. Don’t be thrown off by the tiny size of this jar, a little bit takes you a long way. Living Libations have cleverly crafted with cayenne, cinnamon and peppermint to give you a natural blush (your own microcirculation gets a kickstart, helping you look like you’ve just walked out of a yoga class and are ready for the day). Naturally coloured with from the juice of roots, it is also immediate in its brightening.
I’m loving this on my cheeks and lips. It’s the perfect daywear and purse companion. Instant pick-me-up.

Henne Organics Rose Diamonds Lip Exfoliator
So it seems I’m really into scrubs this month… well, yes, I am. Spring is all about shedding. Shedding the crap we don’t need anymore – whether it’s attitudes, dudes (ha) or dead skin (ew). Adding to my faves this month is the lovely Hennė organics who is back with another beauty of a product: a lip exfoliator. I’m loving this blend of organic sugar, coconut oil, beeswax, shea butter, vanilla, jojoba seed oil, vitamin E, red chokeberry and rose oil that smooth out the dry bits on the lips. Simply rub in a circular motion on the lips for 30 seconds or so, and rinse. If you ever deal from dry lips or you find your lipstick sits in lines in the lips, use this in the AM before applying your lip balm or lipstick.
