Skin Care From Alex Carro

Craig of That Dapper Chap reviews the multi use skin care system by Alex Carro

Based in Spain Alex Carro has been creating skincare for men and women for a number of years, with Alex himself spending more than ten years studying and experimenting with various natural ingredients to get the perfect product.

PRODUCT

Today's review focuses on the Alex Carro gift set which contains all five capsule products: balancing face oil, facial cleanser, exfoliating powder, face cream and multi-use balm.

With oils extracted from flowers, fruits, bark and leaves, the capsule collection is made without fillers and chemicals and comes to you with the Alex Carro signature scent of frankincense, geranium, patchouli, rose, and a French lavender.

What's unique about these products is that they can be mixed in various forms to create a personalised skincare routine just for you. For example mix the multi use balm with a touch of exfoliating powder for a smoothing lip treatment.

Donhall & Bell

You may not be familiar with the name, but if you're a follower of my blog or my Instagram page you'll be familiar with some of the footwear that Donhall & Bell offer, just under a different name.

Until a recent re- branding exercise Donhall & Bell were known as Dapper England and you can find my previous work with them HERE.

Following the re- brand the company have introduced a more casual shoe to it's range of incredible slippers.

The Redchurch sneaker is a versatile shoe and comes in 4 colours: black, navy, burgundy and dark green, which are the ones that I'll be styling for you today.

The Rechurch sneakers are of course made from luxury fabrics, as we've come to expect from the brand. The uppers consist of Luxury Baby Calf Hair, they have a burnished leather toe piece and waxed nylon laces. The in sock is made from quality tan leather and they are priced at £190.00
