AD | Ten Seriously Good Space NK Beauty Products

Some beauty shopping scenarios for you, tick all that apply: - you're in need of a skincare restock but don't know where to begin - you've saved up for a beauty treat but want something that truly delivers on results - you're sad that summer is coming to an end and...

The Luxury Bespoke Bath Soak – For 50p

The Luxury Bespoke Bath Soak – For 50p

There's no big mystery to this post and it's not rocket science - just simple mathematics and a couple of excellent, unfussy ingredients. I'm going to tell you how I make the most luxurious and effective bath soak for about fifty pence a go; a bath soak that genuinely...

New Diprobase Products: Testing En Famille | AD

New Diprobase Products: Testing En Famille | AD

Since having babies my bodycare regime has dwindled down to the absolute necessities; hacking through my plantations of leg hair once a month and making sure that my shins, which have a tendency to be as dry and crackled as ancient treasure maps, are regularly...

Dr Teal’s Soaking Solution: Will (Probably) Knock You Out

Dr Teal’s Soaking Solution: Will (Probably) Knock You Out

Dr Teal's bath salts are so good I've just ordered some more. Which might sound like a bit of a non-statement (if you like something then why on earth wouldn't you order more?) but when you have a whole shelfload of things waiting to be tested - bottles of bath oils...

Ameliorate Transforming Body Lotion: Bye Bye Scrubs

Ameliorate Transforming Body Lotion: Bye Bye Scrubs

I'm surprised to find that I haven't ever done a full and proper review on Ameliorate's cult body treatment, the lactic acid-loaded Transforming Body Lotion. I thought I had, but if I have then I can't see it! Which wouldn't be surprising, to be honest, because I...

Autumn, Dry Skin and the Aveeno Dermexa range | AD

Bum Bum Cream and the Over-Fragranced Time Capsule

Bum Bum Cream and the Over-Fragranced Time Capsule

I inadvertently opened up what can only be described as a "beauty time capsule" the other day and was almost knocked sideways by the smell that came out of it. I was looking for some bikini hair removal cream (as you do, once a year if you're me - it's wedding...

Luxury Summer Skin Prep with Anne Sémonin | AD

Luxury Summer Skin Prep with Anne Sémonin | AD

It seems like only yesterday, but it's actually a whole year since I wrote my post on the Anne Sémonin made-to-measure skincare routine I had been prescribed. You can read about that here, if you'd like a quick trip down memory lane!) It was quite a complex routine,...

Deep Relax: Nothing Compares 2U

Deep Relax: Nothing Compares 2U

I've tried a lot of these "relaxing" bath oils now  - mainly due to the fact that I seem to live in a permanent state of self-induced life-stress - and I can tell you that the Deep Relax from Aromatherapy Associates is one of the very best. I seem have two functional...

Peak Fatigue and the Energising Hand Massage

Peak Fatigue and the Energising Hand Massage

I think I've reached "Peak Fatigue" this week. I could not be more tired. I know we're not supposed to moan about being tired - let's radiate positivity! - but when you feel as though you've been awake since November 1998 and your eyeballs seem to have been replaced...
