I’m sure nearly everyone has heard of reflexology, even if they’ve never actually tried it. I’m a huge fan of it and in the hands of a gifted practitioner, it’s deeply relaxing, renewing and healing. I actually prefer it to a massage and usually go into a wonderful state where I feel my body and mind completely relax and drift …
As most of you know by now, I’m a lover of all things organic and natural. I eat as organically as possible and for a good number of years I’ve tried to use as natural as possible skin products on my face. However, I’ve not applied this much to either make up or nails, and I intend to change that …
I’m always looking for non invasive ways of tightening and improving skin. I have therefore happily spent the last few months trying some new (to me) skin tightening treatments. It’s been a manic year and I was feeling a bit worn out which never bodes well for your skin. What could be better than having a little skin rejuvenation? As …
I recently did the interview below for the Christmas edition of Good Housekeeping magazine. How to look and feel your best through the festive season. It’s a major challenge not to overindulge at this time of year and most of us end up feeling bloated, sluggish and a good few pounds heavier. But it doesn’t have to be like that. …
If you’re anything like me, the skin on your body is completely different to your facial skin. As a teenager with oily, spotty skin, I had legs as dry as the Sahara Desert. They were so dry that unless I smothered them in a moisturiser every single day, I had crocodile skin. Ok, so I was living in Africa and …
It’s always exciting to find a new range of quality skin products and even more exciting to be one of the first to try them out. And this range has a rather lovely story attached to it. Sophie Reynolds grew up watching her grandmother Rosina concoct her own lotions and potions in her kitchen. Rosina was a former dancer at the …
I adore artichokes. While in Spain once, I had one of the most memorable meals of my life that consisted of fresh local fish sautéed with baby artichoke hearts. I’ve never forgotten it. Nothing has ever quite matched that meal but my love of artichokes continues. And although I try to eat as few grains as possible, if I had …
People often contact me to ask what cleansers, face cream, sun products etc I use. I’ve decided therefore, to compile a list of what products I’m currently using. Thanks to this site, I’m constantly trying new things so my list does change every now and then. However, the products below are all firm favourites, chemical free, often organic and really …
It’s not always easy to tell when summer is upon us here in Britain, but I have now fixed the umbrella on to my garden table, so I would say summer is now official. This week I shall also be getting out my summer bag, so what more proof is needed? This means that all those hidden body parts and …
We all long for a skin product that will transform our skin. A product that will tighten, clear impurities, get rid of pigmentation and somehow miraculously give us dewy, gorgeous skin. I think it’s fair to say, we’re all still waiting? I used to constantly read all about the supposed science of each new innovative product, eagerly trying the most …
