I felt it was about time I gave myself a makeover and a face mask was a great place to start. I chose the Aloe Protective Restoring Mask from the Body Shop, and what a good choice it was. It is new to the aloe range and fits in perfectly amongst the aloe day and night creams. I chose this one as it is good for sensitive skin; I didn’t want anything too harsh on my skin.

Having cleansed and toned my face I massaged the cream on to my face, then left, the great thing was it didn’t need any pulling off which was nice as it left my skin feeling very fresh and so smooth to touch. All in all a good night in, and if repeated weekly will help sensitive skin not to feel so dry.

For only £10 from the Body Shop Website its a big tub bargain!

Fragrance genius Jo Malone have today launched their Kohdo Wood collection. The new scents include Lotus Blossom & Water Lily (a sweet smell designed to awaken and refresh your senses) and Dark Amber & Ginger Lily (a softer, deeper scent to calm and relax). The two scents and their names are inspired by the ancient Japanese incense ceremony of Kohdo.

The Lotus Blossom & Water Lily scent contains a blend of mandarin, lotus blossom, bamboo and aloeswood to really energise and give you a boost in the mornings. The Dark Amber & Ginger Lily contains black cardamom, orchid and Kyara Wood and has been created to cleanse the senses, and help make you more positive and relaxed. I personally prefer the Dark Amber scent, it’s fresher in my opinion.

Available in this collection along with the two fragrances are a candle (£38) and bath oil (£52), visit the Jo Malone website for more information and to buy. Each fragrance will cost you £30 for 30ml and £59 for 100ml.
