by Loredana B The UK summer has been great so far. I am enjoying the good weather and getting my share of vitamin D daily, but my skin is suffering because of it. The sun is drying it and the air conditioning at work is drying it. That's why I always carry a bottle of face mist with me. Yep ! Such a simple but yet effective product. Hydrate your skin ON THE GO ! Is it really worth you you might ask. Of course it is ! A facial mist it's such a versatile product you can use it any time of the day. And my favourit /...
Beauty from the Inside Out

by Cat Tierney What we put into our bodies is just as important as what we put on them. Whilst a dab hand at buying a pre-prepared juice I have never made my own juices and wouldn’t really know where to start, so I went along to Chefs Choice Ltd (a fresh fruit and vegetable distributor serving restaurants and gastro pubs in and around the A127 corridor in Essex) to speak to one of their directors Kirsty Powell about all things juice….. How many ingredients does it take to make a good glass of juice? /...
SPF – Sun, Peptides and (totally) Flummoxed! A whistle stop tour of what to use on your skin and why!
Vegan Beauty May 23, 2018 8 Comments Posted in: Beauty, Information, Skincare, Uncategorized
by Cat Tierney, The skincare market can be a confusing old place. I for one struggle about what to read, what to believe and certainly what too use. There seems to be a massive trend towards using heavy creams and often anti-ageing products can leave skin looking more like that of an angst filled teenager. Back in January from the comfort of my sofa I watched BBC 1's "The Truth About Looking Good". Presenter Cherry Healy revealed that whilst 75% of the ageing process is due to sun damage, the /...
Tips on moisturising and treating oily skin
Loredana B Feb 13, 2018 0 Comments Posted in: Beauty, General, Information, Skincare, Uncategorized
Moisturising oily skin can be tricky and quite scary. In my teenage years I was told to use products that will dry my skin and that this will minimise the pores and prevent acne. How many of you still believe that? Because it's time to brush this old myth under the carpet and start moisturising your skin. Using only astringents and water based creams made my skin feeling tight and irritated and I had plenty of spots all over my face, not to mention acne scars from squeezing every white head i saw. I'm guilty o /...

Having a proper skin care routine is essential in preserving youth and tone to the skin. I don't know about most of you, but I definitely need help to keep my skin hydrated and healthy. In my 20's I haven't really payed attention to my skin. I used to go to bed with my makeup on and clean my face with shower gel and my idea of hydration was a jar of Nivea body lotion. But with time passing by I started to notice little wrinkles forming around my eyes and my expression lines becoming more accentuated, skin started /...

Vitamin C derivatives and the effects they have to the skin
Vegan Beauty Sep 20, 2017 0 Comments Posted in: Beauty, Skincare, Uncategorized
We all heard about Vitamin C and its beneficial effects on the skin. There are quite a few derivates of Vitamin C used in skin care products and some are better than others due to their stability and ability to not oxidise once in contact with light and air. Vitamin C is one of the most powerful antioxidants to combat pigmentation, fine lines and visible sun damaged areas. It also boosts production of collagen, a protein found in our body that provides our skin with strength, elasticity and cell renewal. /...

Hibiscus Flower Acids – The new AHA
Vegan Beauty Aug 30, 2017 0 Comments Posted in: Beauty, Information, Products, Skincare, Uncategorized
AHA (alpha hydroxyl acids) are well known in the beauty industry and salons and used to exfoliate skin to reveal a new, younger looking layer. But AHAs tend to over exfoliate and irritate the skin, leaving it red, inflamed and tender. This leads to over-processed skin which can create irreversible damage to the skin. Spa Technologies UK recognised the need for a less invasive approach for skin regeneration. Using pure extract of hibiscus flower, a complex of multiple acids and powerful antioxidants and a seaweed /...
