Six Reasons To Try SBC Gels Collagen Body Polish

You'll remember that a few months ago, I spoke to you guys about why now is the right time to introduce collagen into your skincare routine. Since then I've been a fond fan of the SBC Gels range of products and have extended my collection two fold. QVC favourites, SBC have proved time and time again that their products perform and offer a high intensity type of skin and body care. So when I heard that my original favourite collection, the Collagen range, was being extended to include the brand new Collagen Body Polish, it was a total no-brainer that I'd be giving it a go. 

Winter Skin Detox

Every January I recommend having a skin detox. By that, I mean using new and intensive, dedicated skincare for a month to cleanse of impurities etc. This gives the skin a month to declog and freshen up for the year ahead. Plus seeing as most of us are recovering from the cost of Christmas, we tend to spend a lot of time at home, so it's a no brainer that January is a perfect time to detox the skin.

AM To PM With This Works

One brand I've been loving on the skin care and body care front recently is This Works. I'm not new to their products but it's only in the past few months that I've been using their products with a dedicated effort to really get to grips with what they can offer. I've been a big fan of their Perfect Legs Skin Miracle since I tried it last year, but I've been really enjoying trying some others too, which together have given me amazing body and skin care throughout the day with something for every section of the day as it passes.

Three Clarins Body Products You Need In Pregnancy

Being five months pregnant is wonderful - there's a little boy kicking me like mad, keeping me awake at night and giving me the most amazing summer treat to look forward to - that first cuddle is going to be amazing. But pregnancy is not my favourite thing, and it really can (and does) take it's toll on your body. Not just with extreme tiredness and sickness, but in ways you aren't prepared for. Mostly things like the fact that the hair around your face really thins out and grows back in unruly curls that resemble horns. Yep, FACT. The other thing that faces major change is your skin. I'm not just talking on the face, I'm talking all over. And it's hard to combat.

Combatting Cellulite With Anne Semonin

Something I was never prepared for, was how much my body would change the closer I got to 30. I'm assured it happens to everyone at some point, which is reassuring to hear, and I do count myself lucky that I was one of the fortunate people who's body delayed the physical signs of childbirth... Ten days after having my son I was back in my size 10 jeans - don't hate me. In fact it's only now that he's 5 and I'm 28 that I'm noticing a big difference in my body. The first few years of his life, my body was the same as before he came into the world. I was also one of those annoying girls who could eat and drink anything and never put weight on. I say that with no pride at all, because let me tell you this - a high metabolism and an inability to keep weight on, meant that with the first sign of stress it caused weight-loss I couldn't afford...to the point where I frequently had to be put on medical calories (powdered calories to add to all food and drink to make you put on weight.) Being too slim isn't fun, no matter what you think. But in the last few years I made a change to my pill and suddenly everything was different... I put on more weight than ever before as it kicked my hormone imbalance into new depths and I found that the curse of my family finally kicked in - the dreaded cellulite.
