BOLT Beauty - Vegan, Sustainable, little Eco-gems!
Jennifer Lo Hair + Makeup Artist
So I stumbled across Bolt Beauty whilst browsing a bit of IG… they looked like those little bath squishies you used to get in the Body Shop as a young teen. All different colours and shapes that you could choose from.
Well these mini travel sized seaweed capsules contain just the right amount of skin care goodness. The fact that the capsules are made of SEAWEED means that they will disintegrate and biodegrade beautifully. The founder Lisa developed these little Eco-encapsulated gems of skincare as she needed a decent skin care solution to go travelling with her boyfriend. Back packing does mean packing light.
No need for this decantering malarkey into little MUJI bottles, don’t get me wrong I LOVE a MUJI container however it is a bit annoying getting those last dregs of product out and filling them up without any spillage even if they do come with a handy little funnel. Also, one of my issues is the life span of a product as when products are exposed to oxygen the countdown begins.
Any way, Bolt beauty currently have 4 skin care products. I am yet to try them out, but eagerly await to.
These are:
Filthy Clean Cleansing Gel - A non-drying gentle cleanser.
Vitamin A Game - A concentrated retinol serum
Mad About Moisture - A soothing hydrating moisturiser lotion
Glow Don’t Shine - A mattifying serum
Reading the reviews on these makes me salivate and I am expecting amazing things. Did I mention they are cruelty free (leaping bunny certified) vegan, and obviously Eco- friendly, with minimal nasties to skin. Ticks all round. I shall let you all know the reviews on the actual products when I get them. EEEK I can’t wait!
If any of you have tried and love these products already please do leave a comment and let me know whether they float your boat.
I think these will be the perfect addition to my kit as well…. just saying.
