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 …
The PHB Ethical Beauty range is quite something. Completely natural, vegan and even Halal certified, the products are so pure that they make perfect remedies for sensitive skins or those with eczema, acne or even psoriasis. They are designed to improve not only skin but health and well-being. They are scrupulous about where they get their ingredients from, insuring they …
It’s always exciting to find really good natural and chemical free makeup. Just a few years ago the quality wasn’t great, unlike with natural skin products of which there are many wonderful brands, but that is now really beginning to change. I was therefore delighted to be asked to judge lipsticks at this years Natural Beauty Awards. Below are my …
I’ve been writing about natural and chemical free skin products for awhile now but not much about natural make-ups. And the reason is that I’ve not found many I really like. They tend to have dull colours with a sometimes weird texture and don’t look great when you apply them which completely defeats the purpose of wearing make-up in the …
The legendary Philip Kingsley (he coined the phrase “bad hair day”) founded his world renowned hair clinic and treated everyone from Audrey Hepburn to the regular man in the street. And he was loved by them all. Now his daughter Anabel is following in his footsteps and has become a trichologist herself. Here she gives us some valuable insight into …
What better way to kick off the Christmas and seasonable festivities than by extolling the virtues of chocolate? Oh yes a little bit of the dark stuff will not only be nutritious but will also even help with the often accompanying stress of this time of year. But as they say, moderation is key. Enjoy! It’s not often that there’s …
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 …
The best part of this year has been spent setting up our new online diet programme. And I can’t wait for it to go live which, fingers crossed, should be very soon. In the meantime, here are some tips on how to get your body efficiently fat burning and your energy levels to soar (taken from my recent article in …
I’m a bit of a baby when it comes to skin treatments. I like organic natural products, gentle treatments and I don’t like pain. And I especially don’t like downtime. I mean who has time for downtime? Downtime makes me nervous. What if the swelling, redness or bruising is really bad and takes weeks to go back to normal? What if …
I have tried a LOT of serums this year. Dozens in fact. I was sent a huge boxful to try out when I was a judge at the Natural Health International Beauty Awards earlier in the year. And it was a hard choice to make because there were lots of good ones. However I still have them all and am …
The natural and organic beauty product industry has become huge so there’s obviously a growing market for it. But how do we know what’s really natural and what isn’t? A lot of natural ingredients on labels sound like chemicals and vice versa. Are companies being entirely honest about what they’re producing? Well these are the very questions pondered by Grace …
