Abundant in superfood ingredients, sustainable packaging, and even a natural alternative to retinol, the natural beauty category is not one to underestimate when searching for products that pack an anti-ageing and radiance-boosting punch.
To help narrow the search and to celebrate Natural Beauty Month at beautyheaven, we sent out trial boxes filled with natural products for some of our lucky members to test and review. And now, you can read all about them in our wrap up below.
Plus, watch the video above to see what some of our members thought about Nude by Nature’s new and silicone-free primer range.
Nude by Nature Perfecting Primer Hydrate and Illuminate
We say:
Enriched with active natural ingredients including native Australian kakadu plum and lilly pilly, the Nude by Nature Perfecting Primer Hydrate and Illuminate works to nourish and protect dry skin with the help of hyaluronic acid and olive oil. Wear alone for a luminous glow or apply under makeup to extend the staying power of foundation.
You say:
“The subtle glow makes this nice to wear alone though which is a bonus. Overall, this is a really nice product – it’s priced up there with some of the higher-end products but it is deserving. ” – XClaudia, read more reviews here…

Nude by Nature Perfecting Primer Correct and Even
We say:
Nude by Nature Perfecting Primer Correct and Even offers a velvety formula that instantly neutralises redness and counteracts the appearance of dark spots. The satin-matte finish provides antioxidant defence while the inclusion of vitamin E works to calm and soothe stressed skin.
You say:
“It does even out my complexion as well hiding the blemishes and spots on my skin. There are no silicones, which is fantastic to know as these types of fillers just react to my sensitive skin.” – Yvette_rose, read more reviews here…

Nude by Nature Perfecting Primer Blur and Mattify
We say:
The Perfecting Primer Blur and Mattify from Nude by Nature immediately minimises the appearance of pores and fine lines for a soft-focus finish. The non-greasy formula absorbs excess oil to provide a smooth base and help extend makeup wear.
You say:
“I was very happy with the way this primer extended my foundation wear time, even when wearing with a tinted moisturiser it definitely kept the product on longer! I absolutely recommend and will definitely be buying this in future instead of my non-natural mattifying primer.” – tarameoww, read more reviews here…

Loved the Natural Beauty Box!!!!
I love all
I'm trailing the Derma Sensitive Skin Lotion at the moment and it is lovely.
I didn't know that NBN had a setting spray, I should look into that.
Haven't tried these but will definitely be looking out for the Burt's bees lip shine and Essano vitamin c serum next time I go shopping. Thank you for the suggestions
I use Dermal Therapy Sensitive Skin Lotion for my eczema and it has helped to relieve the itchy red rash
Natural Beauty Month time of year is exciting as I know the products are going to be a treat! Thanks bh!!!!
😀 CG! You'll be glad you did!
I think it's so good and I'm buying more when this bottle finishes. : D
I actually tried a few of these products. and I must say I love Glow lab! They have become a new fav in my beauty drawer.
Good to know Natalie123 thanks.
Glow Lab night cream was half off at the supermarket so I purchased that and the body scrub. Yes! I love these products. I only need a small amount (not even half of a tsp)of the night cream to do whole face. It's not greasy and it soaks in nicely!
Bargain. Great find Georgia.
Really enjoyed being on this trial, the Essano vit c serum is amazing, so glad I got to try it, will definitely be buying it when it runs out
interesting, I've had my eye on Dermal Therapy products. definitely going to give these products a go
I have tried a few of these! The burts bees is amazing on, I love the nude by nature spray. I definitely a thought to try the hair grow
I agree about the Burts Bees.

Thanks for the info
Essano is such a great brand!
I'm keen on trying the GROW hair range – I need all the help I can get in the volume department!
I love the NS8 heel balm. I suffer from cracked heels and dry feet all year round. This is my go to. I'm very interested in the Nude by Nature range to help me with my dark circles and uneven skin tone. I have sensitive skin so I want to try it first, luckily my chemist stocks this range.
I’ve just purchased the blur and mattiffy one and really like it so far
I’ve got some Essano products. I love them, the smell is like essential oils.
Price is great too
Burt’s Bees Lip Shine is a good product and well priced
Love nude but not a fan of the scent
Loved this box. Was such a good selection, a lot of these have become faves
I love the sound of the matifying primer.. I think I need this in my life.

I am using the Weleba facial cream at the moment and very good for very dry skin

So many good products here! I’d have loved to get the beauty box to try.
