How wonderful to find a skincare range that has such effective products, with cutting-edge, active ingredients, at very affordable prices. DoSe really is a gem of a range The truth is that with most expensive products, you are paying for packaging and advertising. They often use the same ingredients as good quality, low cost brands like DoSe. That’s why I …
The amino acid that can extend lifespan
There’s a non-essential (meaning your body can make it) amino acid called glycine, that has some staggering benefits. However, as with so many things, as we age, our body is unable to make enough of it. And you definitely don’t want that to happen. Even though I’m a strong believer and taker of supplements, I didn’t know much about glycine …
Green Tea
It’s the simple things that count at times like this. The quiet moments. The moments we take for ourselves or choose to share with someone we love. For me, one of the great pleasures of the long days we all face at the moment, is sitting down with a cup of tea. And it has to be green. Not only …
The hero beauty products you need in lockdown
As we all sit here in lockdown, with our beloved hairdressers and beauty salons closed, we are left to our own devices.

Sunlight after all is free (if a little sparse around these parts) and vitamin D is one of the cheapest supplements around. Vitamin D is probably the most vital vitamin for your health Every year, new research comes out finding yet another amazing property about …
A gem of a skincare range
I’ve tried so many fabulous natural skincare products since starting this site that I was becoming a bit blasé. In fact I have so many to get through that in all honesty I often only use them for a few days and then move on to the next ones. It’s frustrating at times and my skin has forgotten what it’s …
Why I Love Astaxanthin
I do love an antioxidant. I take quite a few of them but astaxanthin is hands down the best of them all. Even I was amazed to find out just how extraordinary it actually is when I started doing research for this latest article of mine for Natural Health magazine. I have to confess I started taking this antioxidant with …
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 …
