International Natural Health Beauty Winners

Glynis BarberBeauty, Skincare Leave a Comment

I was thrilled and  honoured to be a judge at the International Natural Health & Beauty Awards which took place last week. I was given the task of trying out serums which I was very happy about as I love a serum. And oh boy, did they give me a lot to try out! A few months ago a huge box of at least 50 serums landed on my doorstep, all natural and chemical free. The trick was finding one that is effective, giving great results and leaving the skin thoroughly nourished and hydrated. And my winners certainly delivered on all that.

See my choices below, along with winners of some of the other categories. These are all great products, a lot of them organic, with no toxic chemicals undermining the benefits they have to offer. If you would like to buy or get more info on any of them, just click on the name of the product and it’ll take you through to the relevant site.
