Two Pretty Additions from Priti NYC: Turkish Sorbet and Red, White & Beautiful, London 2012


Priti NYC has launched a beautiful new Turkish Sorbet collection for Summer 2012, with beautiful brights that strike the perfect balance between this year's pastel and neon bright trends.

Horned Poppy - a cool pearly yellow that reminds us of a field of buttercups
Red Maple - a bright neon coral jelly (already paired with cute flipflops at HQ!)
Lungwort - an ice cool aqua-mint creme, perfect for Breakfast at Tiffany's
Dayflower, a soft blue violet cream

Each of these shades are highly pigmented and apply seamlessly for an immaculate finish and the beauty of this collection is that they all work together so well it's a shame to stop at just one! 

Turkish Sorbet shades cost £8.95 each


As if 1 gift wasn't enough, Priti NYC has also launched 'Red, White & Beautiful for London 2012'


Designed to be worn together - on separate nails or in creative nail art designs - the deep crimson and navy tones are particularly sophisticated.

The set includes White Ballet Dahlia - opaque white
Red Head Cactus - true red
Schwarkopf - deep navy blue
and a free 2 in 1 top & base coat

Red, White & Beautiful costs £29.99 for the set

CutECOsmetics is delighted to stock both new sets of these luxury, non toxic polishes, which you can view here

Get your Bronze on!

With the long awaited arrival of glorious Summer sunshine, lots of us are getting our pins out for the first time this year - and the girls at CutECOsmetics HQ have been taking the skin friendly approach with a natural looking self tan! 


Our top tips for a natural looking early summer glow...

  • Go lightly golden and make sure your face, neck and decollete tone in with the rest of your body with a light sweep of natural looking bronzer.
  • Take your favourite foundation from winter into summer by simply warming it up a little with bronzer. 
  • For a super subtle early summer glow, try dipping your brush in a natural or translucent powder before adding bronzer to tone down the colour a little.

Mineral bronzer is made from natural minerals and is ideal for achieving glowing, healthy skin. With a range of colours to suit every skintone, here are a few of our favourites...




Lily Lolo - choose from matte or shimmer finish for a natural looking, sun-kissed complexion. Free from harsh chemicals, nano particles, parabens, fragrance and preservatives. Vegan friendly. 



Bellapierre mineral face and body bronzer is made with 100% pure mineral pigments and bound with soothing Jojoba. It blends easily for a luminous, long lasting colour.


Made with Vitamins A, C & E and Jojoba to moisturise and lift the complexion, nvey nourishing bronzer is talc free and glides for a healthy, radiant glow. 
The oil free 100% mineral formula in BM Beauty bronzer won't clog pores or cause blemishes. BUAV approved, this cruelty free product contains no skin nasties and is vegan friendly. 


Application

Bronzing powder is best applied with a large, supersoft brush to ensure even coverage, avoid harsh edges and achieve a perfectly blended finish. 

 Begin with a light touch - less is more and it's much easier to add than to take away. If you have over done it, try adding some translucent powder on top to dilute the effect and tone down colour. 

We love Bdellium and ecotools bronzing brushes - fat, fluffy and gorgeous! 


The greem links above lead directly to each product, or you can check out the full range of bronzers in various shades here


Enjoy the sunshine & happy safe bronzing!

Bodhi & Amie Body & Skincare - just in!

We're delighted to have two new fabulous body and skincare ranges in stock, both of which you may be familiar with: Bodhi & Amie.


Bodhi Bath & Body

Inspired by traditional remedies, Bodhi Botanical Therapies combine natural ingredients with advanced cosmetic science to create high performance natural products. Infused with essential oils & perfumery grade absolutes, this bath & body range cares for the skin, mind and senses. 

We've been kick starting our days with the blend of Palmarosa, Bourbon Geranium and Damask Rose Otto in Palmarosa Verde - a sunny morning scent of freshly mown grass and budding blossom (yes we've seen the rain - we're ignoring it!).
It's the weekend - and this Oriental Ylang Ylang and Patchouli, spiked with Honeysuckle, Neroli and Pink Peppercorn offers the perfect deeply moisturising wind down at the end of a hectic week (if someone is around to massage in the body lotion afterwards, even better!). 

All Bodhi products have multiple benefits and aren't just about getting you clean!  Ylang Ylang Incensa is toning, euphoric, aphrodisiac, anti-ageing and skin rejuvenating.
To celebrate its launch at CutECOsmetics, we're giving away a free Body Moisturiser when you spend more than £20 on Bodhi products, the perfect opportunity to indulge yourself! 
You can browse the full Bodhi Botanical Therapies range here

Amie

Every Amie product is bursting with an average 95% natural fruit & botanical ingredients, hand-picked to work in harmony with your skin & bring out its natural radiance. 
Again, we have a lovely giveaway for our first Amie customers, of a Spring Clean Cooling Clay Mask with every purchase.  This refreshing deep-cleansing mask draws out deep-seated dirt and impurities while soaking up excess oil and helping prevent outbreaks of spots and blemishes. 

From Morning Leaf Matte Finish Moisturiser to New Leaf Skin Exfoliating Polish, this range is ideal for all skin types, especially sensitive, oily and blemish-prone.  

Vegan and Animal Friendly.  See the Amie range here. 

Have you ever tried any of these products?
