A new brand that stands for 100% natural ingredients, 100% effective and 100% affordable products. Now that’s a beautiful statement! Beauty Kitchen products contain only 100% pure essential oils and natural ingredients. The words “natural” and “organic” has almost become a hype in Beauty Land, but how reliable is that? There’s no legal regulation for natural beauty products, which means that any brand can claim the words “natural” and “organic” regardless of what ingredients they use. By the founder of Beauty Kitchen, Jo-Anne Chidley, it raised the question; “so it can be as little as 1%, but what about the remaining 99% ingredients?” At Beauty Kitchen they believe that only 100% natural is good enough.
Founder Jo-Anne Chidley opened the first Beauty Kitchen store in 2010 in Glasglow and that was a great success. Meanwhile Beauty Kitchen is also available in the Netherlands, exclusively at hollandandbarrett.nl.
Beauty Kitchen.
I’ve tested two products, but there are now a number of products that I would also like to try, I’ll show you all of them. The brand uses trendy and cheerful packaging and has 6 different lines: Spoil Me – Chill Me – Inspire Me – Refresh Me – Wake Me & Love Me.
Beauty Kitchen Body Wash Brightening & Toning.
This Body Wash comes out of the Inspire Me line with a capacity of 300ml.
The body wash works refreshing and will awake your senses. The main ingredient is algae oil that moisturizes and cleanses your skin. In addition to algae oil it also contains antioxidants and vitamin C out of grapefruit which have a rejuvenating and firming effect on the skin. Lemongrass brightens dull skin again.

This is a perfect soap for sensitive skin. It cleanses your hands through the eucalyptus and at the same time moisturizes the skin through the oils.

Products that I would like to try.
This sponge is made of pure edible vegetable roots and cleanses the skin deep. You can use this sponge with and without any facial cleanser.
I love lip balms and this one comes in a handy little tin that you can take with you anywhere.
A scrub for your hands with nourishing oils that cleanses your hands and cares for your skin and cuticles.
Conclusion.
Well obvious I want to try more products of this brand for a good reason. The products look great and the two products I’ve tested work very nourishing. They moisturize your skin and I think that’s especially important after you wash your hands (read: I’m someone who almost obsessively often washes her hands). The body wash smells wonderfully fresh of citrus and the hand wash smells spicy.
The products have recently become available exclusively in the Netherlands through the website of Holland & Barret.
