Tis the season - to look after yourself. We may be prone to a bit of overindulgence in December, but Revive Active Beauty Complex can help you glow for the inside out.  

Each sachet contains eight active ingredients, working together to support your skin, hair and nails, it contains a selection of ingredients that comes in powder form, which means that the ingredients dissolve in liquid, allowing for easier absorption by the body compared to other delivery methods such as a capsules or tablets. 

The powder sachet eliminates the need for any fillers, binders or bulking agents, so the ingredients can get straight to work. It's €59 for a 30-day box. Beauty Complex is suitable for diabetics and those with Coeliac disease and is available from leading pharmacies, health stores nationwide and reviveactive.com.

The Wishcloth  on the Wishlist - of course. 

It's a greeting card with a difference - after you've received it as a cool card, instead of going in the bin it becomes a washable, reusable and compostable dish cloth. Available from sustainable store faerly.ie.
