New-To-Me Beauty Brands and Elemental Herbology at Professional Beauty 23
My ‘Best In Show’ discoveries at Professional Beauty 2023 I took a trip to Excel at the beginning of March to visit Professional Beauty 2023. I wanted to take a look at the international brands at the show (any opportunity to #BeMoreFrench) and generally feel a bit more up-to-date and in the know about who’s […]
L’Occitane En Provence OIL-TO-MILK Facial Make-up Remover: REVIEW
L’Occitane En Provence OIL-TO-MILK facial make-up remover brings a little hit of Provençal sunshine to the greyest of winter days. It occurred to me last year that whilst I spend a lot of time encouraging myself and others to #BeMoreFrench, I tend to direct my attention towards Paris, rather than the regions. Determined to correct […]
BIODERMA Sensibio H2O eye Waterproof Make Up Remover
BIODERMA launch Sensibio H2O eye
I was very much hoping (and to be honest, expecting) that this biphase micellar waterproof makeup remover would hit the same standard of excellence that I have come to expect from BIODERMA, enabling me to add one more top-quality eye makeup remover to my routine.
BIODERMA are one of my most trusted skincare brands
Does Natura Siberica Tiger’s Paw Earn its Stripes? Review!
Natura Siberica Tiger’s Paw Reviving Face Cleansing Scrub Nothing gets me more excited than a good bit of packaging, so when I encountered the Natura Siberica For Men Only range, it was all I could do not to swoon. Determined to limit myself to just one of their fabulous Siberian wildlife themed products, I chose Natura Siberica […]
Natural and Organic Products Europe London 2018
I spent today at Natural and Organic Products Europe, which bills itself as ‘Europe’s biggest trade show for natural and organic products’. It runs over two days at London’s Excel Centre, and this year I decided well in advance that I was going to attend on both days, rather than exhaust myself trying to take in […]
AllergyAward17 And The Winners Are …
AllergyAward17 took place in London, at The Royal College of Physicians in Regents Park: an appropriate setting for a day that celebrates skin-friendly science. AllergyAward is organised by the Danish company AllergyCertified, whose motto is ‘One World, One Label’ and who aim to make it easy for consumers all over the world to recognise products that […]
Natural & Organic Products Europe 2017
The Natural & Organic Products Europe 2017 show rolled into Excel London at the beginning of April this year, and for the first time ever, I was in attendance. What got me off the sofa and down to Excel was the knowledge that one of my favourite companies, AllergyCertified, had a stand there this year – and […]
Perfectly Packaged Pommade Divine
I have only recently noticed the heritage skincare product Pommade Divine, and it was the beautiful packaging that caught my attention. I love products with provenance, and Pommade Divine’s goes back centuries. Wrap all that history in a little glass jar, with a lid embellished with the sweetest ‘Start-Rite’ shoe style illustration of two little children, and an […]
QUEEN Cosmetics Allergy Certified Skincare
I have written before about my love for Queen, the British skincare and cosmetics company which has kept high-society faces looking Grace-Kelly-fresh for almost 90 years. Queen will never lose their place in my personal Top 10 of Glamour Brands, as they possess niche appeal and back-story to die for. Queen have built their success upon products […]
Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentré – the Ultimate Moisturiser
Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentré, the most well-known of the products in the Embryolisse Laboratoires range, was created in 1950 by a dermatologist working in a Paris hospital. This suits-all-skins moisturiser is celebrating its 65th birthday, and has re-packaged for the occasion in deep, shiny gold. Although Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentré has been around for generations, my first encounter with […]
