I remember many years ago when squalane was considered a highly desirable skincare ingredient and yet equally undesirable. The former, because of it’s supreme moisturising and softening effect and the latter because of it’s unethical source. In those days squalane was extracted from sharks livers However, that’s all changed and we can now indulge in this amazing and super-hydrating skincare …
I had the great pleasure of sitting down recently with Grace Fodor, founder of the fabulous Studio 10 makeup range, to have a discussion about that inner critic. We did this for her new StudioLIFE series which she sends out to her subscribers. We actually recorded it live with people listening in and and here it is for you all …

In a recent video I did with Zoë Harcombe PhD about the nutritional value of vegetables, she spoke about olive oil being “not all that”. I was shocked, along with many of you.

I’m used to being interviewed on TV about my acting work, but these days people are also wanting to talk about Ageless. Which makes me happy.

The ladies were …

Fasting and especially intermittent fasting, has become a very popular trend. In fact, when Fleur Borrelli and I published The In-Sync Diet back in 2015, we were one of the first proponents of it. The reason it has become so popular is because of the incredible health benefits. People who take up intermittent fasting often see their health transformed It …
Exercise has never been a chore for me. It’s how I start my day and I look forward to it, which I know some people will find hard to believe. Just a few short years ago I had quite a weekly routine. I would do two yoga classes, at least one long hike and between four to six gym sessions …

As Liz Earle said in our recent interview, sleep is not a passive activity. It’s a busy time for urgent repairing and replenishing. Good quality sleep is vital for good health, good mood and a clear brain. In today’s article, Shabir Daya ( pharmacist at Victoria Health ), talks about the effect that lack of sleep has on our skin. …
I’ve always felt such kinship with Liz Earle as she is most definitely a girl after my own heart. She’s been writing and presenting on all subjects of health since the early 1980’s and has so often been ahead of the curve. Most of you will know Liz from her incredibly successful skincare range She’s also the author of over …

I loved the range because of it’s incredibly affordable price and it’s active and super effective ingredients. Well, it’s time to say goodbye because it’s been all but phased out. But fear not, it’s being replaced by something even better! Say hello …
