Beauty Review: NIU BODY

ACS_1981.JPG

As a certified beauty junkie, I love discovering new brands. And trying to make everything in my life "greener" I especially love discovering green goodness brands. 

And if the brand can deliver results --well I'm drawn in by anything that can get my skin looking it's very best because to me good skin starts with good skincare - and the less make-up the better in my books!

NIU BODY

NIU BODY was founded in March of 2017 by Laura Burget and Connie Lo after being frustrated with the natural beauty products available on the market. Options were limited to either pseudo-natural products which weren't effective or high-end brands which cost a fortune. NIU BODY aspires to be a truly natural, approachable brand, at affordable prices so all babes can enjoy everything green beauty has to offer. 

What makes NIU BODY so special?!

All of NIU BODY's products are truly natural, 100% vegan, cruelty-free and made with love in Toronto, Canada. They source the finest ingredients from around the globe, formulating only with the purest and most effective ingredients. They do their part to keep the environment beautiful by using recyclable packaging and focusing on sustainable ingredient sourcing. They firmly believe skin care should not be one-size-fits-all, and use unique botanical blends with catered benefits for every babe's different skin type or concern in mind. Beautiful skin doesn't have to be complicated!

They also are not afraid to have a little fun, as they believe your daily skincare routine should be exciting! They were tired of natural products which were overly stuffy, so their products bring color and a new perspective! 

I am a sucker for the clean minimalistic glass packaging!! It looks perfect sitting out in my modern bathroom vs just shoved in the vanity cabinet. 

I have been using the following 4 products:

NIU BODY COMBO SKIN MAKEUP REMOVER OIL

This oil cleanser dissolves makeup (even waterproof!) and impurities without stripping skin of its natural moisture, leaving you with a soft, non-greasy, and clear complexion. And I love the easy-to-use pump so much ! For all you babes out there with combination skin, this cleansing oil is for you! Ylang-ylang reduces sebum production in that dreaded T-Zone, while rose geranium targets dry spots with extra moisture, giving your face a flawless glow. 

FORMULATED WITH THESE KEY INGREDIENTS
COCONUT OIL: The magic behind all NIU BODY cleansers, this nourishing, antibacterial oil easily removes even the toughest waterproof makeup while hydrating and keeping wrinkles at bay. 

YLANG-YLANG OIL: Stop counting sheep and start catching zzz's! This oil calms nerves, reduces anxiety, and stimulates relaxation, all while reducing skin inflammation and oil production.

ROSE GERANIUM OIL: This fragrant oil really packs a punch! It fights bacteria to clear up skin, and also smells like a divine bouquet of citrus and rose, transforming your bathroom into a little secret garden.

NIU BODY CALM LAVENDER TONING MIST

This alcohol-free toner tightens pores, reduces redness, and balances skin’s natural pH, leaving you with a hydrated and glowing complexion.

This soothing blend of lavender floral water, aloe vera and witch hazel will leave skin toned, hydrated and blemish-free, while also calming your mind. Now who’s ready for bed?

FORMULATED WITH THESE KEY INGREDIENTS
LAVENDER FLORAL WATER: Lavender calms both body and soul by healing dry skin while also relaxing the mind. Find your inner yogi with this soothing blend. 

ALOE VERA LEAF JUICE: Aloe has amazing moisturizing benefits, and also contains Salicylic Acid, which combats and prevents blemishes.

WITCH HAZEL: A natural astringent, witch hazel naturally reduces inflammation and prevents signs of aging.

GLYCERIN: Glycerin is a humectant, meaning it attracts moisture onto your skin, keeping it hydrated, soft, and supple.

NIU BODY GLOW FACIAL SERUM

Best suited for creating glowing skin. This unique blend of camellia seed oil, jojoba oil, bergamot essential oil, and Vitamin E will leave your skin radiant and bright #nofilter needed.

FORMULATED WITH THESE KEY INGREDIENTS
ORGANIC JOJOBA OIL: Truly one-of-a-kind, Jojoba's chemical structure mimics that of the skin's natural sebum. It acts as a natural skin conditioner, minimizing the appearance of pores. 

ORGANIC CAMELLIA OIL: Beloved by Japanese geisha and Coco Chanel alike, this beauty powerhouse absorbs quickly into the skin while protecting against environmental elements. Packed with antioxidants and Omegas 3 & 6, camellia oil will leave your skin glowing and rejuvenated.

ORGANIC BERGAMOT ESSENTIAL OIL: This fruity, citrusy scent refreshes the mind, relieves stress and makes every day feel like the first day of spring. 

NIU BODY PIÑA COLADA LIP POLISH

The sugar lip polishes are formulated with pure sugar crystals, ultra hydrating oils, and shea butter for the perfect, plump pout!

Piña Coladas = summer in a glass. Just as delicious and also reveals the softest pout possible. Sugar to exfoliate off dead cells and rich oils to moisturize, this baby will quickly become the sweetest part of your beauty routine. 

FORMULATED WITH THESE KEY INGREDIENTS
COCONUT OIL: The magic behind all NIU BODY products, this bomb oil easily hydrates and keeps your skin and lips feeling soft and supple. Heat processed to remove long-chain fatty acids, meaning no clogged pores!

AVOCADO OIL: Loaded with vitamins A, B1, B2, D, E, and Beta carotene, this oil helps nourish and protect your skin from ultraviolet radiation, resulting in smooth, healthy lips. Cold pressed.

SHEA BUTTER: Incredibly moisturizing, shea butter is a skin superfood rich in vitamins A and E, and is perfect for dry skin and lips.

SUGAR: The yummy ingredient that gently exfoliates your lips with a mild plumping effect.

All of these products are wonderfully purifying and a little goes a long way. It really is one of the nicest, easiest-to-use lines I've had in a long while and perfect for my combination skin. I really noticed the difference when using the products the first two weeks- my skin feels, and looks, happier and is so silky smooth. I haven't had any outrageously bad hormonal breakouts (which have become all too familiar recently) and my skin feels looked after. I even went foundation free for the first time in a long while and didn't even realize I hadn't gotten any on - isn't that saying something huge?! 

What else I really enjoy about this line is how light everything is. I worry about having pretty oily skin. And the price point is seriously incredible! 

But enough about my face...
