Your skin's needs change as the seasons do; that means skincare products that work moisturising magic for you in the winter may leave you feeling greasy and clogged-up when the summer months begin. Flare-ups, breakouts and allergies are common with seasonal changes, but with the right organic goodies in your beauty regime, you'll soon be ready for whatever summer might bring your way. Here's a look at our top natural and organic seasonal skincare tips for a healthy, beautiful and confident summer.

A little bit of sunshine is good for the body and mind; but of course too much of a good thing will do more harm than good, so we need to be smart about sun safety and outdoors and choose natural sunscreens for healthy skin protection. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun can wreak havoc on the skin, causing sunburns and premature ageing, and also increasing the risk of skin cancer. There is good news though; Mother Nature has given us a wide range of highly effective, all-natural sun protectants to keep our skin safe and healthy. Many of these plant oils and extracts are used as ingredients in our natural sunblocks; we highly recommend adding any of them to your skincare regime before (and during) the sunny summer months!

Christian Dior once said “A woman’s perfume tells more about her than her handwriting” – and it’s true, your favourite fragrance is like your “scent signature”, a powerful part of how you express yourself. And, when you consider that over 60% of what you spray on your skin gets absorbed into your bloodstream, it’s clear that your perfume becomes part of you in more ways than one. Green goddesses know that natural perfumes win hands-down over synthetic fragrances, when it comes to scent, safety and sustainability; so let’s explore a little more about why you should be choosing a natural perfume as your signature scent.

We've all been there, and we all know summer colds and allergies are the quickest way to put a damper on even the sunniest disposition! Summer colds are caused by the same virus as winter colds (although they are only 25% as common), but they tend to feel a lot worse due to the heat, and of course this isn't the time of year you want to be snuggled up with a hot toddy or a bowl of chicken soup. So here's a look at the tastiest, freshest summer foods to help you heal the sniffles, and two great nutrient packed smoothie recipes you can sip on to stay healthy all summer long.
