NEW Clinique Mineral Sunscreen for Face and Body

Exciting! Mother MANFACE has used Clinique Sunscreens since the dawn of time (probably since they were created) and I’ve used them intermittently. The problem I had with them was some of the body versions giving me a slight rash/reaction. This can often be the case with chemical sunscreens, that although are known for having superior protection vs. mineral, can be…

NEW Pinita Colada Body Care from The Body Shop

This is my favourite cocktail of all time – well, the alcoholic version. The perfect balance of creamy sweetness and fruity tanginess. I could drink these all summer! In fact there’s an amazing beach bar in Xavia, Spain where I’ve gone for years with both friends and family. A photo posted by Thom Watson •…

The Body Shop Enrich Not Exploit Campaign & Limited Edition Hemp Hand Cream

Whilst I’m still on a high from the incredible skincare The Body Shop has been producing lately, it’s been further added to with the new Enrich Not Exploit campaign.

Grounded Body Scrub Chocolate Orange Coffee Scrub

I LOVE Dragon’s Den. Since the very first series, I’ve always been hooked. I like the successes, catastrophes, business insight and witty quips from the Dragons – Deborah Meadon has always been my fave! Just after Christmas was an episode where Essex couple Lloyd Hazell and Tasha Harris presented their company Grounded Coffee Scrubs, bringing an Australian beauty…

I had to get these up on the blog straight away; I’m far too excited. The Blackberry Jam Shea Scrub Cubes by Marshmallow Blends arrived in my order this morning and when I removed the metal lid, the smell was just intoxicating and my saliva glands went into overdrive. Marshmallow Blends If you’ve not heard of Marshmallow Blends,…

Introducing Le Couvent des Minimes: The New Brand from L’Occitane

L’Occitane is not only it’s own brand but is in fact the L’Occitane Group; owning L’Occitane, obviously; L’Occitane Au Bresil, unfortunately; Erborian and the widely celebrated Melvita. So allow me to introduce the new brand launching last week exclusively in Boots stores – Le Couvent des Minimes. Humble beginnings In 2004, Olivier Baussan – the founder of L’Occitane,…
