I’ve now been using Garden of Wisdom (GOW) products from VICTORIA HEALTH for a few months and my skin is really loving them. Even though this range is ridiculously well priced, I feel that I’m maintaining all the wonderful benefits I received from the previous amazing (and much more expensive) range I used from The Harley Street Skin Clinic. In …
Two thousand and twenty has been one helluva year. And the pandemic has just been one part of it, albeit the most fear-inducing part that has literally changed how we live. Add to this, massive civil unrest, political turmoil, global demonstrations and a huge loss of civil liberties. It feels like the world will never quite be the same again …
The story behind this amazing deodorant range is very inspiring and also has a personal element for me. I happen to know the co-founders Ed and Andy and two nicer guys you could never hope to meet. Started by two West End performers who know a thing or two about sweat I worked with them both in a production of …
As many of you know, I’m on a quest to find skin products with active ingredients that get real and visible results. I’ve had incredible results myself over the last 6 months with one rather expensive range and wanted to find something more affordable. And I feel like I’ve hit the jackpot with a range that is incredibly well priced …
Three months ago I went to the Harley Street Skin Clinic to go back on the Visia machine to see if the products they had prescribed for me had improved the wrinkles and sun damage that had showed up the time before. I had been shocked to see how my skin had aged I’d always thought my skin looked quite …
The last few months have seen us spending a LOT more time at home. And it looks like this winter we’ll all be spending even more time at home. I wonder if anyone will ever actually leave their house again?? And with not much to look forward to, it’s no surprise people are drinking much more than they used to. …
Yes I know most of us are heading into winter and it may seem an odd time to talk about sun protection but bear with me. I have only just discovered a very innovative and wonderful sunscreen range that offers year round protection. It’s called Evy and is unlike anything I’ve tried before. It may seem odd that cold, grey …
How are your hands holding up? What with all the constant hand washing and sanitising, chances are they’re a bit rough and a bit knackered. Many soaps have harsh ingredients that dry hands out and sanitisers in particular can take their toll. Constant hand washing (which I would choose over hand sanitiser whenever possible) is very necessary at the moment …
It isn’t every day that a lockdown happens in the middle of a beauty experiment. After having my skin analysed by the Visia machine back in February at The Harley Street Skin Clinic and finding that it was depressingly wrinkled and sun damaged, I was prescribed some specialist products to tackle the issues. If you missed Part 1 which describes …
If you missed Part 1 where my skin got analysed on the Visia machine and was found sadly wanting, just click here to catch up Part 1 After discovering my skin had bad UV damage, plenty of wrinkles due to a breakdown of collagen and needed work on getting a smoother, clearer texture, Jessica ( a skin consultant at The Harley …
Way back in February, before lockdown, before the new corona virus turned our lives upside down, I found myself on Harley Street with an hour or so to kill. I decided to call in on the lovely Lesley Reynolds, co-founder of The Harley Street Skin Clinic, to see if she had time for a cup of tea and a chin …
For many of us who like to exercise regularly, going to the gym is very much part of our routine. I was just about the only one left standing in my gym in the weeks leading up to lockdown, as it was eerily deserted. I knew that it was a risk but I wasn’t quite ready to let go. I …
