   Hard to get in the US, but so far is my the anti wrinkle firming eye cream is the best I’ve ever used. No silicones! Didn’t get rid if dark circles or antic but left my eyes well hydrated and comfortable… I ran out 2 years ago and have missed it ever since. Shipping alone to US is insane – roughly $50+… So ive been bouncing around from brand to brand ever since… Ive been seeing it on ebay recently for insanely cheap prices and im so tempted but concerned over why the prices are so low – like $13? Are they fakes? Who knows? Regardless, I fully recommend them if your in the Australia area

   I had never heard of La Mav until some friends who were staying at our house left us a whole set.

   The brightening set (I use the la mav pore refining toner, Vitamin C brightening serum, ruminex lightening day cream and anti-dark circles eye cream and the vitamin C lightening night oil) has improved my skin so much. It’s lightened acne pigmentation scars which I thought would never go. My pores look smaller during the day, my skin looks clearer and generally more even. I’d definitely reccomend to anyone who has pigmentation issues and wants to even out their skin tone/fade inflammatory acne scars. The dark circles eye cream works well too, but the pump can stick a little making you squirt out more than you need (might be just mine though).

   Since using La Mav I’ve felt so much more comfortable to wear less makeup (especially foundations etc.) during the day and swapped it out for skin care (The vitamin C serum and lightening day cream combo leave a really fresh, glowy finish!)
   Plus I love that all their products are cruelty free.
   Definitely my favourite skin care products I’ve ever tried

   I hope I’m writing this review in the right spot, there was no option to add in specific product names!

   So i’ll just give a general overview of why I chose this brand and which products I have been testing and using.

   La Mav (Australian brand) was suggested to me by my aunt who lives in Brisbane Australia. She had been using their skin care products for a while and when I mentioned to her on our last chat that I was looking for a natural and organic alternative to the products I was using she kindly ordered what i was interested in trying and mailed them to me. I’m not sure how much she paid for shipping but if I had ordered online I would have had to pay $49 for shipping to Canada from what i saw on the La Mav website (yikes!) I know its not the same for everyone….so check their shipping page if you decide to order.

   Anyway, as a personal trainer I’m always steering my clients to a healthier body inside and out and I realized that it doesn’t matter how healthy i was personally by eating right, i was still putting chemical laden products on my skin…for the past 10 years…

   So i tossed it all. Yepp, my bathroom counter and cupboard looked abandoned and in my bin laid upwards of $200 of recently purchased Shoppers (drug store) products.

   Back to La Mav, after my aunt sent me the products (about a month ago) I’ve been using them everyday and can honestly say my skin is thankful. I love the fact that when i look at the ingredients list on any single product of theirs i can’t find anything harmful! I mean, you could probably eat this stuff and not be harmed…but i won’t do that LOL.

   Here’s what I’ve been using…

   Morning:

   Sweet Orange Foaming Cleanser
   followed by
   Vitamin C Brightening Serum
   followed by
   Rumex Advanced Lightening Day Creme
   with
   Bio A7 Firming Eye

   I also wear the La Mav Organic BB Creme along with the La Mav Sheer pink lip treatment and yes i’ll admit i am still using my Revlon blush, Covergirl falsies mascara, L’Oreal eye pencil and a touch of concealer! I will be looking for alternatives soon!!!

   Night:

   Sweet Orange Foaming Cleanser with a drop of Cranberry Exfoliating Scrub (to remove the BB Creme)
   followed by
   Antioxidant Nightly Repair Serum
   followed by
   Omega 3 Advanced Nightly Repair Creme
   with
   Anti Dark Circle and Ultra Firm Eye Gel

   In total , 10 products which i calculated came to about $400 …which is pretty expensive and all i can say is i’m super grateful to have been gifted these products! I did see though on their website that La Mav has collections that are around $200 , so i might look into that when i have to stock up.

   Please check my profile , i will post individual reviews of each product as soon as i have the ability to do so.

   I bought La Mav’s Complete Collection for Dry/Sensitive Skin (I have normal skin, but this works just fine for normal skin) with their new customer specials because I am incredibly picky abut what I put on and in my body. As there are virtually *no* regulations in place for skin care and cosmetics, if it’s not certified organic, it almost certainly contains ingredients linked to breast cancer, endocrine disruption, and more. La Mav ticked all the boxes being certified organic and cruelty free, so I decided to give them a try when a friend of mine recommended them.

   Well, I have to say I’m definitely glad I did – I especially like the Hydra Calm Cleansing Creme, the Antioxidant Rich Nightly Repair Nectar, and the Omega Night Repair Creme. The AN Nectar and the Omega-3 creme have a light Rose scent (from actual rose essential oils, not an artificial fragrance!) and are so nice! The Omega-3 creme has a slight ‘tightening’ effect, which is part of their anti-ageing process (which is apparently clinically proven to work but I haven’t looked into it much yet). The nectar is amazing at reducing any irritation or redness, and my skin just soaks it up instantly!

   Ladies, if you care about your health and what goes on your skin, you should definitely consider La Mav. They’re a bit expensive, but certified organic products always are (and they’re made in Australia, rather than China or overseas, so you know they’re actually cruelty free) but worth every penny. If you’re a new customer, you can save a bit with their new customer specials, which is nice. My next order I’ll be trying their makeup range, especially the organic BB creme! 😀

   I use 3 La Mav products. The hempseed oil at night, rosehip oil during the day, and the anti-dark circle eye serum. They are great! Both oils keep my skin hydrated at all times, without looking oily. Seem to be gentle, as my forehead is very sensitive to breakouts but the oils seemed to clear most of the pimples I had. The products also come in cute silver bottles (sort of), with pink labeling. Very feminine! The eye serum is in a little white one. The only complaint I would have is that the pumps give me a lot and it’s hard to control what comes out – you can’t, so sometimes the oils squirt onto your surroundings. Although pricey, I am very impressed and take comfort in knowing they’re organic products. Would buy again 🙂

   Vit-C Advanced Nightly Repair Nectar – this is such a beautiful product. The smell is amazing; makes my skin feel very smooth & moisturised afterwards. There is really no need to put anything on afterwards. I put this on at night and my skin really is glowing at the moment but believe this is a combination of things – but will definitely buy this again. Is at Australian product and the range has just become available in New Zealand.
