indulging your skin with luxury parisian skincare

9th August 2016
          You might recognise the branding from my Youtube videos, gently flickering in the background. Diptyque candles, for me are an essential within my home. From the moment we completed on our home I knew I wanted it to be filled with the scent of Vanille, Mimosa and Baies.   “From the moment we completed on our home I knew I wanted it to be filled with the scent of Vanille, Mimosa and Baies.”   The fragrances are like nothing else, each one is able to transport you back to Parisian memories you were sure you had forgotten. But skincare, really? I wasn’t so sure that a brand so iconic for their fragrances could translate.

The newly released ‘Nourishing Lip balm’ has a non-sticky formula, leaving behind a velvety soft finish to the lips which alone is enough to hail it as a handbag essential in its own right. But the ingredients, which are perfectly formulated for healthy nourished lips without any over baring or unsavoury fragrances.

White Iris Oleate; Radiance boosting for ultra smooth skin

Sweet Almond Oil; Vital nutrients

Meadow Grass Oil; “Adds a distinct, satin pillow-like dimension.” case and point.

Pastel Flower Oil; Ensures the skin is left feeling hydrated without oily residue

Facial oils are a way of life. You either get it or you don’t and for the last eight years, I’ve got it, I’ve experienced it and my life is truly lost without it.

The healing, nourishing benefits of facial oils has allowed my skin to fully repair after life’s difficulties. From day to day skin stresses to far more rigorous treatments, the healing benefits of facial oils are profound and my skin is noticeably drier, tighter and duller when I don’t indulge in them. The “Infused Facial Oil” is currently the most beautiful of them all and its super light formula absorbs into my skin leaving behind a delicate, powdery rose fragrance of which oozes indulgence and effectiveness.

I should also note, it looks absolutely stunning perched on my dressing table.

Prickly Pear Flower Oleate; Replenishing antioxidant rich formula boasting Vitamin E & Omega 6

Orange Blossom Hydrosol; Revitalises the skin

Nasturtium Extract; Strengthens & Protects the skins epidermis

Blue Bonnet Extract; Stimulates & enhances skins radiance

Rich, in every sense of the word, this cream melts into the skin beautifully whilst cooling and revitalising the surface. I reach for this when my skin is in need, as it suffers with the British Summer from dry suffocating heatwave to tropical monsoon on a daily basis which strips my skin of natural oils, hydration and radiance.

The most muted and exquisite fragrance of them all, I like to massage into my face and drift off to sleep at night in a cloud of indulgence.

Ad Embarking on a journey of timeless treasures, my passion for antiquing began in the warmth of late summer 2019. When I discovered my father’s old boarding school tuck trunk nestled in the attic of their home. Since then, my weekends have unfolded like chapters in a novel, meandering through antiques emporiums and brocantes across the country.

Each trip unveils a tapestry of tales from bygone eras - from weathered pickling jars and vases to opulent French chandeliers and steamer trunks, and with each trip, I was captivated by the hidden secrets and untold histories woven into each artefact.

Introducing ‘Scented Mementos’ - an enchanting limited edition collection by @jomalonelondon Each fragrance, a symphony of memories, encapsulates the essence of cherished moments. Immerse yourself in the zesty allure of Emerald Thyme, or indulge in the spicy nostalgia of Ginger Beer, where notes of ginger, roasted oak, and cinnamon intertwine to evoke memories of British antiques markets.
where every scent is a love letter to the past, a fragrant homage to the beauty of antiquity. #ScentsOfBritain #JoMaloneLondon Paid partnership

Everything feels a little more optimistic as March begins don’t you think?
It’s the start of spring in my book Evergreen shortly followed by the spring equinox so there’s ample time to prepare, nest and refresh. 
The light returns, hello March 🌱
There’s no such thing as bad weather, only bad weather attire 💧
A little indulgence from my comfort of my own home thanks to INCREDIBLE @kmp_skin and @freshbeauty Ad 
for the launch of the new Lotus Youth Preserve Resurfacing dream serum which is a gentle AHA serum with prickly pear flower extract said to boost radiance and it was so lovely to be treated to a first trial to get a very first impression of the serum thanks to KMP and her magic hands. I’ve literally never had a facial like it!
