Sophyto Organic
I would recommend the Sophyto Sample Kit as this offers 5 products to address an entire regime. Alternatively, try the Sophyto Ultra Mild Silken Cleanser or Sophyto Deep Pore Foaming Cleanser because keeping your skin clean and free of surface build up is one of the most important steps in healthy skin maintenance.
Sophyto products are certified vegan, biodegradable and cruelty free. Sophyto skincare is now available at Naturisimo The Organic Skincare Company.
FREE Sophyto Sample Kit worth £15.95 when you purchase any two or more Sophyto products (excluding samples). Just enter code 'SOPHYTO87' at checkout*.

Inika Mineral Makeup - NEW
I tried the Inika Mineral Mascara (£13.95) and it is excellent natural mascara, it does not clump or give panda eyes.

Though a bit tricky to apply because they are loose powder and come in a small pot, with a careful application and the correct blush, the reflecting mineral pigments achieve a sublime radiance.

And not only are his ingredients biodynamic and organic, they’re also kept in their “living” state during the formulating. [...]. Dr Alkaitis’s products certainly have light textures that could never be accused of clogging pores, but they aren’t as sensuous as most of us are used to. The Replenishing Serum, for example, is so light, it almost seems to evaporate on contact, but once you get used to it, you appreciate how it gently moisturises and tones. The Universal Mask has a ripe broccoli aroma, but, when it is mixed to a thin paste with water, its nourishing vitamins and minerals make skin feel instantly perkier. [...]
