Eczema comes in many forms and few people have escaped suffering from it at some point of their lives. It can flare up when the weather gets cold and heating is constantly on. The effects can vary from mild to quite severe and unfortunately there’s no known cure. Steroid creams are the norm for treating it but long term use …
New Faves from Green People
It’s always a cause for celebration when Green People bring out a new product, so imagine my excitement to be trying out not one but three of them? Beauty Boost Skin Restore This is a wondrous product indeed. It’s designed to give your skin a real boost by stimulating collagen, evening out redness and increasing hydration. It contains Wakame which …
Oils of Heaven
Anyone who follows this site will know all about of my love of oils for the skin (both face and body). They, along with serums, absorb into and nourish the skin so much better than a moisturiser. There’s only one problem. There are now so many wonderful oils on the market. And now to make matters even worse, a new …
Cutting Edge Skin Products – Part 4
I think this is the first time I’ve done four articles on one skincare line. NIOD is so unlike anything else I’ve used due to it’s advanced technology, that I’ve stuck with it for 3 months now. Partly for the sake of this website but mostly, I have to say, because of my skin. Today is about the last 2 …
Cutting Edge Skin Products – Part 3
It’s been 3 months now since I started using NIOD, some of the most advanced skincare products on the market, and my skin is really showing results. Gone is my dehydrated, flaky skin. Gone are the strange bumps and spots I had after a year of using stage make up. Instead I have nourished skin that is neither dry nor …

Cutting Edge Skin Products – Part 2
I recently wrote about NIOD, an amazingly advanced and effective skin range. I have used the entire range and am writing about every single product over a series of articles. If you missed the first article about their two incredible core products, view the previous article to take a quick peek. The difference with NIOD is that it really is …
Cutting Edge Skin Products
I’m about to do something very unusual for me and it feels a bit weird. I’m almost feeling guilty about it but frankly, it has to be done. What can this be, I hear you wonder? Well…the thing is…I’m going to write about a new(ish) range of skin products that are not…gulp….chemical free…or…. completely natural! I know I know. Why, …
An Easy Way To Revitalise Your Skin
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 …
Coming Up Roses
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 …
My favourite Skin Products
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 …
Chicken Skin Syndrome
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 …
