SBC or Simply Beautiful Collection had until recently been a brand I had only seen on my social media and had only read really good reviews about the products, so when a box arrived for me try, I couldn't wait to give them a try. Founded in 1988, SBC describes themselves as being fuss-free, practical, effective, affordable pampering, which includes skincare gels, moisturisers, serums, polishes, cleansers, bath & body essentials to create a dynamic range that delivers pure, natural vitality to the skin.
I was sent some products from the Collagen Collection which describes itself as being an advanced smoothing, hydrating and moisturising skincare which provides intensive therapy for the face and body.
The Collagen 3-in-1 Cleanser is a lightweight triple action cleanser and it does an incredible job of removing all the dirt, grime and detritus from my face. One of the issues of living in London is the pollution, there are days when you can just feel it all sticking to your skin and it isn't the nicest of feelings. So when it comes to cleansers, I want something that will remove that feeling and everything that accompanies it.
Packaged inside a pump action bottle, this cleanser is not only incredible at removing makeup, dirt and grime but it is so gentle on the skin and gives a gentle exfoliating whilst cleansing. It is full of amazing ingredients which include:
- Cocoa Butter
- Soluble Collagen
- Shea Butter
- Passion Flower Oil
- Kukui Seed Oil
- Papaya Seed Oil
- Vitamin E
To use, I simply apply just a few pumps onto dry skin and then massage it across my face, eyes and neck using a simple massaging action and then using the Shammy that I was also kindly sent with warm water. The Shammy is a hygienic PVA cloth which is incredibly soft and smooth on the skin when used. It is priced at just £12 and is available right here and the Shammy costs just £5.
The second product that I have been using is the Collagen Body Polish. I absolutely love the texture of this body polish, it is more like a sorbet than anything else and it glides onto the skin effortlessly. Ideal for use on either dry skin before bathing and showering using circular motions concentrating on problem areas such as elbows, knees and feet.
It is enriched with anti-ageing marine collagen and kukui seed oil, which is rich in essential fatty acids to hydrate and smooth the skin whilst passionflower seed oil and vitamin E both nourishes and protects. When it comes to the exfoliation aspect of the body polish, it is non-abrasive and made of Pumice which provides the very effective, yet gentle exfoliation. We all know that exfoliation rids the body of dead and dull skin cells, as well as helping to boost blood circulation which in turn helps you to achieve healthy and glowing skin.
This body polish is rich but non-greasy and is gentle enough to be used 2-3 times a week to keep the skin feeling soft and smooth. This 450g tub retails at £30 and can be found here.
This was my first time using products from SBC and it has been an absolute treat. Having had no adverse reactions to any of the products I have been using and really enjoying the effects, I can't wait to try out some more products from the range.
