Last week I received a lovely assortment of TempleSpa minis including a toner, moisturiser, night cream, mask, neck cream, and cleanser, from Louisa Boulton’s the TempleSpa Consultant. I could not wait to try these as they all smelt amazing. Of the selection, three rose to the top and now feel irreplaceable. So much so I bought them full size!
1. In the Beginning Cleanser
This buttery-crystalline balm feels like a spa’s soft whisper. It melts warmly into my skin, dissolving makeup with ease while leaving it glowing, dewy, and nourished. The formula is grounded in Mediterranean botanicals, olive oil, calendula, basil, clary, and lavender, plus rich vitamin E, delivering a “just had a facial” sensation every time I use it.
What I love most? It’s more than just clean; it's treat-yourself nourishment. Even my drier, sometimes reactive skin feels soothed, soft, and comforted. My skin feels tight lately from a combination of pregnancy hormones and erratic weather conditions not to mention stress so a cleanser that does not dry but thoroughly cleans is much needed.
I take a dab of balm and rub into damp skin, then wash off with a hot cloth. I love the smell as well and its one of the few balm cleansers that make my face feel clean and not dry at all.

2. Repose Night Cream
This nighttime cream is soothing and restorative. A lush "cashmere texture" that sinks in quickly covers me in a blend of tranquil essential oils, frankincense, lavender, patchouli, geranium, chamomile, vetiver, boosted by hops to encourage restful sleep and soothe skin.
The moisture is deeply comforting, and waking up with smoother, softer skin feels like a gentle reward. It's pregnancy-safe and vegan, which gives me reassurance while indulging in such an aromatic ritual. I like it as a little goes a long way, it covers well and I can use it on my neck. I wake up feeling like I have just moisturised, and it does not transfer to my pillow or leave any residue.
3. Double Cream Day Moisturiser
This rich, sumptuous cream is holy-grail status for dry, lacklustre skin. With its luxurious, thick-yet-supplant texture, it's like wrapping my skin in a dewy embrace. The formula combines Mediterranean botanicals—olive, avocado, red pepper, horse chestnut, blackberry with the Phirmaderm complex to deeply hydrate, firm, and revive radiance.
It truly feels like “salvation in a jar” for tired, dehydrated skin, my complexion immediately looks plumper, fresher, more alive. It works well under make up and lasts all day. I would also say you can use this as a night cream if you wish as its that effective and smells beautiful.

These three staple skin products have quietly elevated my skincare. Each brings its own touch of indulgence, comfort, and nourishment: cleansing that’s spa-level, nighttime lavender peace, and a daytime dewy glow.
They feel like essential companions right now and even more so for the postpartum days ahead, when my skin deserves extra love and softness. If you're seeking skincare that feels generous, grounded in botanicals, and truly thoughtful, these are your little luxuries made for everyday.
