I’m heading to a wedding this weekend – no, not *that* one – so these Malin + Goetz Travel Size Beauty bits and bobs couldn’t be more timely. Behind the scenes,…

For something so happy, refreshing and olfactorily bright, the Ragdale Hall Be Happy Refreshing Shower Burst has very uninspiring packaging! However, it is a gorgeous morning shower scent, full of passionfruit…

Ooh, this is really delicious! If you love sensual textures, this satiny, creme-balm formula is an absolute dream on the skin leaving it immediately supple and silky feeling. It’s rather…

Yes, I’m biased from the get-go because I love Aromatherapy Associates – I can’t even remember that last time that I didn’t have some in my house – but I…

I think that fragrance layering has died a death – you really don’t hear of it so much any more and yet at one time, it was positively encouraged to…

Although I’m having a bit of a romance with Jo Malone hand washes (orange blossom… it’s an addiction) I’ve also got solid soaps everywhere. Currently, some tiny Clarins ones that…

Well, this is impressive. I’ve been thinking a lot more about sun protection recently because I’m trialing a selection of retinol products for the next two weeks so I’ve had…

I went out in the rain this morning to buy these little bunnies after seeing them on Instagram this morning. How sweet! There are three limited editions soaps, each with…

I’m a massive fan of AHA body lotions which will smooth your skin like no other. Given they’re such wonder workers, it’s surprising there are so few around. I really…

Well, this is all the February birthdays taken care of! Somehow Jo Malone has managed to make a cold and rainy, blustery London day look positively charming! There are three…

Well, we’re on the home run now so I expect that you’re all done on shopping – somewhat miraculously, I finished mine on Monday and they’re all but one wrapped…

I was in my local M&S on Saturday and noticed that there was 50% off much of homeware and Christmassy things, so I’ve checked on-line this morning and discovered that…

I’ve surprised myself by loving the Frosted Plum fragrance – sweety-fruity but not horribly sickly. It’s Christmassy and happy although using the exfoliating sugar body scrub was a bit like…
