Odylique was born 30 years ago in the family kitchen of Margaret Weeds, created out of a need to find gentle, natural skincare for her family who suffered from sore, itchy skin, at a time when there wasn’t a lot of options available for eczema or sensitive skin Margaret used her knowledge of herbal medicine and aromatherapy to create a small range of gentle, effective products, over the years the company and the product range has grown but the principles have stayed the same.
Odylique (Oh-dih-leek) means power of nature and is the perfect name for this company, all ingredients are naturally derived and certified organic in fact this was one of the first companies to offer certified organic cosmetics.
The Body Pamper Gift Set features a 200ml ylang ylang and orange body wash and a 30g pot of coconut candy scrub.
First of all I used the body scrub, there was no doubt that this was coconut it was a strong smell but not overpowering, very different to other coconut products I have used, I had to keep smelling so I could explain the smell to you I have decided it’s more of a toasted coconut smell, reminding me of a sweet my local corner shop used to sell.
After rubbing it into my skin I was blown away by the effect it had, my skin had gone from pale and pasty to having a lovely warm glow as if I’d been out in the sunshine, I’ve made a mental note to use a body scrub more often, it’s not recommended to use more than once a week so I’m going to try for weekly.
Next I used the body wash, first the smell, it was very delicate with just a hint of orange, the type of smell I’ve noticed when visiting a spa or beauty salon it was both fresh and calming, the body wash lathered up into a silky lotion with very small tight bubbles it felt very nourishing on the skin and my skin was left feeling smooth and hydrated and very pampered.
Packaged together in a black box tied with a thick blue ribbon this is a beautiful luxurious product that would make a lovely gift for many occasions.
Both products are vegan, cruelty free and certified by the organic soil association.
The set is priced at £20 and available from the company web site.

Organic Mineral Lipstick shade Cherry Tart
A lipstick is often thought of as small affordable luxury, and when I opened this product I could understand why, both the packaging and the product looked and felt smooth, sleek and luxurious.
The lipstick was very easy to apply it glided easily across the lips, was lightweight and not at all sticky, when applied the colour was lighter than it looked in the stick, it was a warm red that wasn’t too strong, neither matte nor satin I would describe it as sheer.
I was going out for lunch so thought this would be a good way to test it, I was impressed that it didn’t transfer onto the glass when I had my first drink, it didn’t last the whole day I needed to reapply after eating but I would expect that from any lipstick.
Cherry Tart is a shade that would suit a lot of people but there are a total of nine shades available priced at £18.50 and available from the company web site.
I rate all these products 5/5
