Cargo PlantLove Make-up masterclasses

Cargo's UK Artist extraordinaire, Shehla Shaikh spent the day with us at the Puresha headquarters recently and transformed us from 'blah' to 'beautifully glowing' with PlantLove's gorgeous range.
With no budget for supermodels, Puresha founder Jo and two colleagues get the 'once over' with Shehla. We filmed the makeovers (rather amateur, but you get the idea), to show the wonders of this organic make-up brand. Now finally, a high performance organic make-up that looks and works brilliantly.
If you need some make-up questions answered, Shehla has kindly offered to devote some time to being the make-up guru for Puresha. Simply email hello@puresha.com and Shehla will choose one plead per week to answer on the blog.

Our Furoshikis have arrived!

Furoshikis are an eco, yet ancient form of Japanese wrapping using fabric. Once used as wrapping, you can fold and knot them to create lots of useful and cute carrying devices! My fave is the big, slouchy bag as modelled above (much more funky than yet another eco-shopper!) or, a personal fave is the wine bottle carrier perfect for popping to parties at friends' houses!




I loved the furoshikis the minute I saw them and we are now very happy to announce that our very own, organic cotton, fairtrade furoshikis have arrived. From now on, all Puresha packages of 3 or more products get a furoshiki for free. As if you needed anymore reasons to shop at Puresha!

Behind the scenes at the Plantlove film shoot

We're busy creating 'how to' videos to go online for the forthcoming launch of Cargo Plant Love - the only prestige make-up line that has been awarded an Eco-cert Organic certification. VERY exciting. Watch out for the launch on the 28th September ... but here's a look behind the scenes of our very own, homemade shoot ...

The selection of products used for the bronzed, glowing look that Shehla (Cargo's Artist) created for me ...


Say 'cheese' ... this is the natural look that Shehla created for me ... keep a look out for the video

Our Top Picks for 

Sensational Summer Skin...

Puresha is celebrating the summer arriving in style this year with some fab holiday must-haves that you will love.The Patyka family line lime body scrub (£7.50) is really refreshing and zingy on a hot summer's day, and the exfoliating beads will prepare your skin for a nice even tan as well as making it lovely and soft!

When you get into the sun feeling refreshed and ready to go , Marie-Veronique Organics do a lovely line of skin protecting products that will stop you from getting frazzled this Summer - one of our very favourites is the Sun Serum SPF 20 (£58.00). It has anti-aging properties as well as being all natural. The perfect sun serum - containing only natural and non-harmful ingredients.

Your essential product for every day wear in hot weather has to be Chocolate Sun marigold face sunscreen SPF 30 (£15.00). This delicious-smelling cream has green tea extract in it that is an antioxidant 20 times stronger than Vitamin E. The cream also contains marigold, a natural anti-inflammatory so you won't suffer from any heat rashes! A personal favourite from our very own beauty consultant, Sara. 

Duchess Marden have a skin toner that is perfect for your hand luggage when you are flying away for a holiday. The Damascena Rose Water (£24.00) is in a handy 59ml size, and not only cools you down but relieves tired skin and reduces puffiness around the eyes. What more could you ask for?! Get the 122ml (£38.00) to spritz yourself with on the beach.

My personal favourite for the Summer season is the Marie Veronique Organics Creme de Soleil Tinted SPF 30+ (£38.00) and I'm not the only one who thinks so - this product was in the top 10 best sunscreens in Skin Deep Database. Not only does this cream protect you from the sun, it also repairs skin damage and gives you a healthy, sun-kissed glow. An all-round winner!

The last but certainly not least must-have product this Summer is designed to give you that "just walked off the beach" boost. The Chocolate Sun Cocoa Absolute tan enhancer in Light (£24.50) gives you a subtle glow whether you are already tanned or not. It's non-streaky formula contains grape seed oil which helps lock in moisture and nourish the skin.
