If like me, you tend to be rather ‘sporadic’ with shaving your legs, exfoliating and moisturising during winter then your skin is probably a bit dry and in need of some TLC.

First things first is to rid the skin of all the dead skin cell build up, any moisturiser you apply onto dead skin will only be doing half its job.

Our super lovely Salt Scrub is one of our top sellers and is one of the office top fav’s. Its gorgeous signature fragrance combines coconut, jojoba and sweet almond oil to leave your skin super soft with a fine veil of hydrating oil on your skin (doesn’t transfer to your clothes). Your skin will look and feel beautifully soft and more uniform looking with less blemishes.

Start your moisturising regime now and by the time you’re ready to get your bare legs out they’ll be super soft and fully moisturised. Our original Body Butter is crammed full of nourishing goodies such as shea butter, sweet almond oil, macadamia oil and vitamin E to feed the skin leaving it hydrated, soft and smelling lovely!

If you strapped for time, opt for our Moisturising Butter Scrub, it’s a handy 2-in-1 formula that both exfoliates the skin with sugar and olive granules also moisturises with a combination of nourishing butters to leave the skin super soft in super quick time.

One of my favourite summer products is the Body Moisture Spray. This is the ultimate lazy girls saviour to moisturising, simply spray the nourishing, feather light oil onto your skin after a bath or shower to leave skin hydrated, soft and with a lovely sheen to it.

COMPETITION – NOW CLOSED

To celebrate the beginning of Spring we’re giving away 5 goody bags to get your body blitz started.

Containing a Salt Scrub, Body Butter, Moisturising Butter Scrub and Body Moisture Spray, the goody bags are worth over £30!

Taking lead from customer requests, we developed our Trim & Tone Body Wrap to do exactly that.

Using a combination of natural ingredients, the infused purified clay helps aid detoxification and firming of the skin by encouraging collagen synthesis.

Massage the clay over your chosen wobbly bits to assist with circulation and natural water drainage, then wrap the area with the provided cotton bandages and after one hour reveal tighter, firmer looking skin.

Some women using the wrap have experienced incredible cm loss results after using it (you are provided with a tape measure so you can track your own loss), now obviously don’t expect to unveil a new Kate Moss-like silhouette. The results of this product, like any product of its type, depend on numerous things like following the instructions, your water retention, how long you leave it on for and so on. It’s worked for lots of women so it might just work for you, give it a try and let us know how you got on.

To celebrate the success of the Trim & Tone Wrap, we have a Professional range goody bag which includes the wrap to give away worth £47.
