    LUSH Ltd Leeds New Store & Spa Launch

    It seems LUSH Ltd are on one enormous roll at the moment with the launch of their incredible new website (which I hear is doing mightily well; no surprise) as well as the LUSH Ltd Kitchen. Further to this, last night I attended the opening of the brand new Leeds LUSH Ltd Store & Spa,…

    Lynx Peace: Peace For A Week

    Peace For A Week If you haven’t already, check out the first of my two parter on Lynx Peace, here.

  • NEW Lush Website + Lush Kitchen

    NEW Lush Website + Lush Kitchen

    Maybe it’s just me, but it’s been almost an emotional experience to see Lush’s new online presence; it’s like your child growing up. Lush has always been known as “that soap shop” or “that shop you can smell from three streets away” but it’s oh so much more and the new branding of their site…

  • Lynx Peace: Make Love Not War

    Lynx Peace: Make Love Not War

    Time is a companion that goes with us on a journey. It reminds us to cherish each moment, because it will never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we have lived. I don’t often pull quotes from the Captain Jean-Luc Picard basket [above] but when I do, I choose…

  • A Life with a View – Architectural Fragrances for the 21st Century

    A Life with a View – Architectural Fragrances for the 21st Century

    It can be a tough one, having advertisers on blogs, but the one thing I believe in is remaining unbiased. My advertisers sponser their banner ads but unless otherwise stated, do not pay for features. Now I wouldn’t write a negative article about an advertiser, obviously, but I am in my right able to not…

    First Look: NEW Clinique For Men

    Whilst drifting through Duty Free (ok, I’m trying to be nonchalant – whilst maniacally combing through Duty Free) my first stop was the Clinique counter to see what travel exclusives they had going on (a HUGE Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion+). BUT, to my surprise, the new Clinique For Men line was already stocked and on…

    Valentine’s Day 2014: Lush Ltd

    It’s that time of year again and I have some treats for you.

Check out what’s on offer below with some of my…
