Ladies, how many of you have been on a shopping spree, arms laden with high street bags, and then on the final leg of your spree you have quickly nipped into Superdrug to buy that £1 shower gel on offer and thought ‘two birds one stone, I might as well get my eyebrows threaded'? Living in London, one can forget that ‘pamper’ time is meant to be luxurious, relaxed and enjoyable. Nowadays I just think ‘when can I fit in...

The celebrity culture of 2017 can sometimes make it feel as though anti-aging surgical procedures are more or less the norm, while every anti-aging cream on the market claims to have the answer to turning back the clock on your skin. Although most of us would agree that although having a youthful, glowing appearance is preferable to the drawbacks associated with bags and wrinkles, it seems surgery and Botox are usually the last resort option in achieving this. If you’re...

I think we’re all in agreement that tooth pain is one of the most frustrating pains that we can go through. But did you know that that pain or discomfort could actually be telling you more about your body than just a problem with your teeth? The mouth can be like a mirror for the state of your body, so while you’re looking for the best dentist London has to offer, or the closest emergency clinic, you should stop and...

Dermawell is an unashamedly serious skincare range. The brand’s no-frills approach means there is not a hint of pink in the packaging. It does not make outlandish promises that its products will deliver eternal youth in lotions and potions. Instead the range, born out of a partnership between Well pharmacy and leading Italian derma-cosmetic experts Unifarco, is focussed on the science, not the pretty packaging. Dermawell has paired high quality ingredients with proven formulas and it’s after a place in...

When I first walk into Neville Hair and Beauty, it feels more like a nightclub than a salon. There is exposed brick, the catchy beat of dance music and a cloakroom complete with a bored looking attendant. This is where the well-coiffed women of Knightsbridge come to have their tresses styled. The salon has an impressive roster of celebrity clients including Kelly Brook and Holly Willoughby. It describes itself as ‘the home of palm painting’, when a colourist paints dye...

For any Summer addicts like me, this time of year can hit pretty hard. With the weather turning almost overnight and temperatures dropping faster than you can say ‘pass the black tights’ it can be a depressing time of year. So, how do you cheer yourself up before the SAD kicks in? A quick show of hands around the office showed that we were worrying about our mid -season wardrobe (too warm for winter coat, too cold for going sans...

Children as young as ten are a target for cosmetic surgery apps and makeover games since they are likely to make them feel dissatisfied with their own appearance. In this day and age, it is common for children to become dissatisfied with their looks and are opting to do something about it, whether it involves undergoing surgery or non-surgical treatments including the likes of Botox, Lip Fillers and laser hair removal London to fight against fast hair regrowth. But are...

Since hitting 30 I have been far more interested in beauty products and what will work ‘wonders’ for my skin, than I’ve ever been before. You can safely say, I’m that desirable (gullible) customer for brands and will buy into just about any skin related fad. Transform your skin, tighten those wrinkles, and my personal favourite, stop the clock! If it has a catchy strapline, I’m yours! But just as much as I’m willing to try these products, I am...

By Anna Power Like a lot of women I’m not very kind to my hair. I wash it most days and blow dry it with a heated dryer and I also colour my hair and have done so for years. To top it off, I have naturally fine hair – so I’m basically a hairdresser’s nightmare. With this in mind I head to Carol Joy London for their Intensive Steam Treatment and Signature Blow Dry in the hope of rescue....
