Women's Health: Tisserand - The Restore Balance Discovery Kit review #MoodBalance

 

Whether you're menstruating, experiencing the first symptoms of the perimenopause, or going through the menopause, Tisserand's new Restore Balance range is here to offer some natural aromatherapy help.

Launched just last month, British aromatherapy brand, Tisserand, has released a dedicated new range of natural products to support women through all the physical and emotional stages of life. A tried and trusted natural brand since 1974, Tisserand has a vast range of products available and a wealth of knowledge and expertise to draw from, so it's great to see a range such as Restore Balance on the shelves.

As the name suggests, Restore Balance addresses the elephant in the room when it comes to discussing women's emotional changes that occur naturally through menstruation, perimenopause, and menopause. The most common symptom that around 70% of women report when going through these life stages is a 'change in mood', and thus Restore Balance aims to help through its expert blend of comforting Geranium, nurturing Rose, and uplifting Clary Sage essential oils.

In fact, 3 out of 4 women reported more 'settled emotions' after using Tisserand's Restore Balance range for just two weeks, which certainly shows that there are some empowering natural properties in these aromatherapy products.

One of the easiest ways to try out this new range is with the handy Restore Balance Discovery Kit which comprises of three travel-size items; a 9ml Body Oil, a 9ml Body & Room Mist, and a 10ml Pulse Point Roller Ball. Not only are these brilliant 'try me' sizes, but they're also super convenient to use when traveling or simply to have in your handbag when you're out and about.

How To Use

I love the 100% natural essential oil blend which is both calming and revitalising at the same time. You can start your day by applying the Body Oil all over after a shower, and then top up the soothing fragrance by spritzing a little of the Body & Room Mist in your car or around your home office. If you're on the go, apply the Pulse Point Rollerball to your wrists as and when needed, inhaling the natural scent deeply to bring instant calm to stressful moments. Mood swings be gone!

Tisserand Restore Balance Discovery Kit* retails for £16 - available from various stockists including tisserand.com

Women's Health: Suvi Labs Botanicals + Collagen Supplements review

 

Heads up ladies! There's a brand new female-led health and wellbeing brand called Suvi Labs on the market and their first innovation has been developed to support women over 40 experiencing perimenopause, as well as younger women with PMS symptoms.

Co-founded by two mums in their 40s who were going through the perimenopause themselves, Kathrin and Charlene have used their experience in branding and marketing to launch Suvi Labs, a chic, all-natural supplement brand based on extensive research, trials, and expert-led advice. 

Their first product is called Botanicals + Collagen which is a powerful supplement comprised of just seven natural ingredients, each carefully chosen to help relieve the most common symptoms of hormonal fluctuations that are caused by the perimenopause and PMS. 

What's In It?

A daily serving of two capsules contains 15ug Vitamin D3 (300% NRA), 30ug Magnesium Citrate, 1000mg Marine Collagen, 80mg Ashwagandha Root extract, 80mg Turmeric extract, 30mg Saffron extract, and 4mg Siberian Ginseng extract.

What's Not In It?

There are no artificial fillers, bulking agents, or any additional ingredients in this supplement. However, it should be pointed out that it does contain Marine Collagen which is derived from fish so it's not suitable for vegans to use.

What Does It Do?

Each ingredient serves its purpose with Turmeric helping to ease joint pain and headaches, Vitamin D3 supporting brain function and the nervous system, and Magnesium to boost low mood, PMS, and increase sleep quality. A hefty dose of Marine Collagen is included to improve skin quality because collagen production slows down as we age so supplements containing this as highly beneficial for increasing skin's elasticity and the fight against fine lines and wrinkles. 

Elsewhere in the supplement, extracts of Ashwagandha restore a sense of calm and help to regulate blood sugar levels, with Saffron playing an important role to reduce those annoying hot flushes, low mood, and boost libido, and Siberian Ginseng to restore energy levels and provide further mental focus and clarity. 

Overall Thoughts?

This is an excellent supplement that has been well thought out by women, for women, to support them through life's natural hormonal changes. Whether you're experiencing perimenopause or monthly PMS symptoms that are impacting in your day-to-day routine, trying a dedicated supplement like this can help to reduce the severity of those symptoms, to help you to get on with your life.

Suvi Labs Botanicals + Collagen Supplements* (60 capsules, 30 day supply) retails for £45 from suvi-labs.com
