Just last week, I had the most amazing training Skype session with the Scottish people from Pure Lochside. Finally, I got to meet Fiona Tutte, founder of Pure Lochside and her trainer Laura.  Fiona, a wonderful lady, with more than 16 years of aromatherapy experience, started with a brief story on how she got started. She decided to start her own line when the products she customized for her clients worked so remarkably well on them. Encouraged with her efforts, in March 2007, Fiona finally creates Pure Lochside products with a unique holistic outlook resulting in an exceptional range of luxury organic skin care.  Mind you, her products are 99.9% organic with remainder 0.1% made up of vitamins.



I love the smell of her products, the way it looks especially the Spritz bottle and it works so well (some other bottles are hopeless!).



Her products are jam packed with a powerful concoction of anti-oxidants extracts such as organic Frankincense, Sea Buckthorn, Arctic Cranberry, Argan Oil, Rosehip Oil, Pumpkin Seed Oil, Vit E and A. This potent mix of oils in high dosage (highest dosage possible) make its products very effective not just for the skin but also for the mind.  While the anti-aging properties work against the free radical on your skin, the aroma of the products works deeply to relax your mind. You can literally feel the tension easing away.



The training session went on in length on each ingredients, why it was included, what it is used for and how it should be used. Armed with insiders’ information, I am now even more confident to recommend her products.



My favorite product got to be the Revitalizing Face Treatment Oil is a heaven-sent for those suffering from hormonal skin problems. Laura, the trainer, explained that it contains a good percentage of Rose Otto, a highly prized essential oil which helps to balance hormones and skin, rejuvenates, regenerates and uplift emotions. Retinol Palmitate helps to fight signs of ageing by increasing the production of new skin cells and plumping the skin. End result is radiant and stress-free skin. Bonus: my husband and kids love the way I smell each time I apply this wonderful oil.



Judging from the way, Laura explained about the Organic Sugar Body Scrub, I can easily guess this is her favorite product. The sweet warming scent is often mistaken as Vanilla extract but in fact, it is Benzoin essential oil, which treats eczema. Another plus point is….O.K. you got to hear this, Laura has professionally explained that sugar instead of salt as it is less cutting and kinder to the skin. Microscopically-wise, salt grain has a jagged edge while sugar grains are round, thus making it less harsh on the skin. If you use salt to scrub on the same spot, your skin will turn red while sugar will not cause that. Try it yourself.  O.K. another vote to use sugar instead of sea salt is that our earth is actually quickly depleted of another natural resource sea salt. Hmmm...



Oh, did I tell you that the Siberian Ginseng Eye Gel which contains Ginseng Extract (2nd ingredients in the list!), besides tightening the skin around the eye area, helps to combat dark circles too.
