Gold
Lyonsleaf, Natural Skincare Solutions 04
Components: Unfragranced Beauty Balm, Zinc & Calendula Cream, Muslin Face Cloth, Face Flannel
A compact but fully packed box of two Lyonsleaf favourites — which between them have won multiple medals at the main Free From Skincare Awards over the years. The thoughtful addition of two (different) cloths really elevate this to a ‘proper’ gift, which also works well as a stocking filler. Ideal for the Lyonsleaf fan, or anyone with sensitive skin in need of a fragrance-free treat.
Silver
BeeInspired Skincare, A Medley from the Bees – for those with sensitive skin
Components: Propolis Intensive Care Hand Cream, Propolis Cream, Propolis Serum, Lip Balm Stick (Fragrance Free); all in a reusable tin box.
An ideal gift set for those wanting to bring the powers of propolis into their lives, produced by thoughtful dedicated beekeepers based in Surrey. Great price point, and available in an alternative nut-free option for those with allergies, this is a beautiful gift for both those with problem skin and others who just want to enjoy some intense moisturisation and bee-power!
Trishs Honey Products, Bee Gift for Sensitive Skin
Components: Intensive Hand & Body Butter, Lip Balm, 2 x Beeswax Candles
A simple and lovely collection of four products — two family-friendly and fragrance-free skincare products, which impressed judges for their smooth textures, and two ‘clean’ and natural beeswax candles.
Bronze
Elave Skincare, Elave Derma Skin Essentials
Components: Elave Sensitive Body Wash, Shampoo, and Body Lotion
A very good value fragrance-free trio: a no-nonsense collection which is so affordable, generous, and ideal for those with problem skins. Presentation good too: good branding, paper and box, and good free-from labelling on products too.
Elave Skincare, Skin Balancing Essentials
Components: Elave Skin Balancing Cleansing Gel, and Moisturiser, and Elave Daily Skin Defence SPF45
Judges were really pleased to see a high-factor sun product in the awards, and this is another set of products from Elave, which although perhaps not as ‘natural’ as some other entries, nevertheless showed better ‘free from’ understanding than most, especially for those with sensitive skin: no fragrance, no MI, no sulphates and no alcohol too. A great set, which looks very smart, for anyone with problem skin who may be otherwise difficult to buy for at Christmas.
