Shaving is time consuming, waxing is expensive & other forms of hair removal are either messy or ineffective. Although expensive, this laser hair removal device promises to get rid of unwanted body hair for ever. The laser zaps the hairs at the root which prevents them from growing back, however it can take months to take effect so patience is needed!

Following on from the cult success of L’Air de Rien which was created by Lyn Harris for Jane Birkin, Un Petit Rien is a lighter version perfectly suited to spring. Notes of neroli, oak moss, & musk are clear & fresh, and appear to float on your skin rather than envelop it. The packaging features Birkin’s hand drawn nymphs making this a highly covetable gift.

Glyco Peeling is one of the few products that works as well at home as it does when used in a professional facial. Apply a thin layer to thoroughly cleansed skin twice a week for six weeks and you will really notice the difference. It removes the top layer of dead skin cells, evens out your skin tone & dramatically increases hydration, leaving you looking perkier !

Many products claim to strengthen, soften & repair damaged hair but this is one of the few that really does work. Philip Kingsley’s Elasticizer was launched over 26 years ago and is still a best selling product. Simply apply to the mid lengths & ends of your hair before shampooing, leave on for up to 20 minutes then wash and condition as usual.

If you can’t remember what your eyebrows looked like before you plucked them to extinction, why not try enhancing them with this brilliant Dirty Blonde eye brow pencil from MAC. The pencil is quite hard, and if you use short, soft strokes to fill in the gaps you will be amazed at how natural it looks. Just remember to use a light touch !
