AEOS - Active Energised Organic Skincare

AEOS products contain organic and biodynamic plant extracts, essences and essential oils. Although the companies name suggests that they specialise in skincare, they also make some gorgeous makeup products and I have been lucky enough to trial a few of them.


As per usual I will start with the packaging. The white and silver packaging has not shown up well in the photos but is simple and classy. Each product is in a box and has a lovely, quality feel to it.


Illuminator £11.98*


A sheer, complexion enhancer that instantly adds radiance to the face creating a healthy glowing look and luminosity.


This is a gorgeous, shimmery illumiator suitable for any skintone, even the most pale. It has a gorgeous creamy texture and applies well, leaving a soft and smooth feel. The product applies well over foundation and doesn't crease or appear cakey. I have been using the as a highlight on my cheek bones and it's quick to apply and gives an instant glow. This product also benefits from the most gorgeous scent. It has a slight cocoa butter smell to it and is lovely and sweet. The packaging allows for easy application as this product is in a stick. One piece of advice I will give is that this product rolls up from the top rather than the bottom (it took me a long time to work this out!)


Organic Creme to Powder Blush - Rose £19.99*



Enhances the cheek's natural healthy glow by effortlessly blending into the skin leaving a velvety luminosity.


This is a very subtle blush and a swatch on my hand wouldn't show up on the camera. The packaging of this product is lovely and the blush has its own mirror in the lid. I don't use many cream blushers so I was keen to try this one out. I found I need to really work this cream with my fingers and warm it up before I apply it to my cheeks. It blends well but does need some time to work into the cheeks. When blended this blusher turns to a firm powder and lasts the day. This product also has a gorgeous scent and smells really natural and of lavender.

Biodynamic Nail & Cuticle Oil £14.98*


This rich and protective formula has been developed to replenish the nail and soften the cuticles. Developed using biodynamic Poppy, Sunflower and Spelt Oil all grown with love and intention on Shire Farm, Aura-Soma's Demeter-certified biodynamic farm, and extracted using supercritical CO2 extraction to maintain the full properties of the oils. Spelt oil is rich in natural Vitamin E and essential fatty acids and boasts excellent antioxidant, moisturising and regenerative properties. The formulation is 100% natural. The oil is enhanced with the addition of Rose Quartz and Clear Quartz crystal gem essences.

I love cuticle oil and apply it often but can sometimes find it a messy process. This oil is in a brush pen and takes all the mess out of application! This product also has a lovely natural smell although it is very subtle. The pen winds up at the bottom which releases the oil from the middle of the brush. This is then easy and mess-free to apply around nails. This works well and leaves my cuticles soft and my nails in good condition. I really recommended this product if you like nail oils as the fantastic packaging means its great for throwing in your handbag and applying through the day.
