    5 Beauty Gifts for Valentine’s Day

    Whether you’re treating yourself (woo!) or someone else (ahh!), here’s my pick of 5 perfectly pampering beauty gifts for Valentine’s Day this year. Sanctuary Brimming Full of Love Gift  £12.50 I quite like Sanctuary as a brand because they offer a bit of accessible luxury at a reasonable price point and this gift set is no exception. They’ve fully tapped into the Valentine’s spirit with the Brimming Full of Love Gift which was created in collaboration with Artist Frederick Wimsett, who is known for his stunning interior murals. At a purse friendly £12.50, the set features a Body Scrub, Body Lotion and Body Wash in the White Lily and Damask Rose…

    Gatineau – Discovering a Classic Beauty Brand

    Gatineau is one of those brands that I’d never really given a second glance. I can’t really give a valid reason for my past disinterest in the iconic French cosmetics brand, other than perhaps I subconsciously associated it with women ‘of a certain age’! How this is actually a bad thing, I do not know but I do know that I’m glad I discovered the brand recently. Better late than never, right? I was actually introduced to Gatineau back in November courtesy of a Marks and Spencer Beauty Christmas press evening (thank you M&S!) and got to try some Gatineau products in the form of the brand’s Discovery Collection.

    Beauty & Go Drinks

    ‘Beauty Drinks’ have always interested me. I remember when Fountain and Collagen Shots debuted a few years ago and, even though I never actually got round to trying either for myself, I was admittedly a bit intrigued by the whole concept. I totally get that a healthy, balanced diet can play a huge part in the appearance and resilience of your skin, hair and nails – but can a dedicated product developed to target specific beauty concerns actually make that much of a difference? That’s where Beauty & Go comes in – each drink (there are 5 different ones) has been blended up using ingredients known to help out with various…
