Acqua di Parma Blu Mediterraneo Bergamotto Di Calabria
An unbelievable variation on the already sublime Acqua di Parma. I have already decided that this will be my summer 2012 fragrance. As you can see, the bottle is in the style of the traditional Acqua di Parma but with a vibrant blue glass and lid, it looks incredibly striking among my other fragrances. The…

L’Occitane Immortelle Crème Précieuse / Precious Cream
This post has been quite a while in the making as I wanted to get it tested properly. The Immortelle range has been designed to increase collagen as well as firm and brighten the skin, and such results can’t be achieved within a weeks use, you need to go the full hog. It was my…

Philips SensoTouch 3D RQ1280/22

Because I have rather feeble facial hair, this device has been tried and tested by both myself and my step-father who has very fast…

Liz Earle For Men Try-Me Kit
I probably should have done this as my first post on Liz Earle, but better late than never. I’d heard so many things about this company from friends and bloggers alike that I knew it was time to investigate. The funny thing was is that 2 years ago, I spent about 4 months working in…

The Body Shop Tea Tree Blemish Night Fade Lotion

L’Occitane Ultra Rich Lip Balm
Whilst taking advantage of England’s summer sun, I wondered if anyone else’s lips became as dry as mine do when faced with hot weather. Well one thing that I’ve had to hand over the last year or so is a L’Occitane Shea Butter Lip Balm. I don’t use it every single day, but sometimes my…

It took me a while to take a photo that I really thought captured the fragrance, and I think, well, I hope, I did it. This fragrance review was and will still be part of a collective round up of some of the world’s best heritage fragrances to get you set for Father’s day 2012,…

Zirh Skin Care and Shaving
You may or may not have heard of Zirh before. They’re a brand that are relatively new to the scene here in the UK, but they’ve exploded with a bit of a bang and I have been informed that they’ve been around for 20 years or so in the US. I was sent the range…
