I’m mad about candles. An evening isn’t an evening without one. Occasionally I light one to help me work and I always light one in the bath. They make me feel serene. I’m also a huge fan of organic bath products so I was delighted to try some Neom products. Neom is a luxury organic...

This was the third Christmas running that I meant to pick up Sephora’s Gllitz & Glam kit whilst in Chicago. The first year I forgot, the second year they were sold out but finally this Christmas I got my hands on one. If you haven’t heard of this kit it’s basically Sephora’s...

There’s nothing like a fresh start. I’m not a big fan of the New Years hype but I do enjoy the feeling that accompanies the first few days of the year. Time to wipe the slate and start fresh. I enjoy making resolutions and for the most part I do quite well in keeping them, the personal...
