Jo’s Scent Notes: FLOWER BY KENZO 🌺 As Jo admits in this week’s Scent Notes, when you don’t have a signature scent, it’s easy to forget past perfume loves. At a recent event hosted by The Fragrance Foundation, she was reminded - powerfully - of one: FLOWER BY KENZO. The evening was spent listening to Master Perfumer Alberto Morillas, the genius behind iconic scents like cKOne, Gucci Bloom, and Marc Jacobs Daisy. As Jo and fellow fragrance lovers inhaled his creations, one spritz transported her back to a long-forgotten phase: her FLOWER BY KENZO moment. It’s a cloud of a fragrance - soft, powdery, floral, with a whisper of vanilla and musk. Dreamy but grounded, it’s equally at home in the office or out to dinner. “Honestly,” Jo writes, “rediscovering this was like bumping into an old friend - and remembering how much you love them.” Link in bio to read more 💕 #beautybibleloves #scentnotes #flowerbykenzo

Congratulations to ALL the winners of the @marieclaireuk Fragrance Awards - a wonderful sniffathon celebration of the best in fragrance… Delighted to be there! #josscentnotes #fragranceawards

🌟 Fab Find of the Week: Self-Glow by @jamesreadtan newness 🌟 There were grand ‘hurrahs’ the other day when James Read scooped two Cosmetic Executive Women Awards for the self-tanning range he launched just last year – Best New Body Product (Prestige), for Sunrise To Sundown Tinted Tan Serum, and Best New Brand, for Self-Glow. Amazing accolades for such a young brand – but we raved about it when it first launched, and we’re raving about these two innovations, the first to join the original line. The first is Self-Glow by James Read First Light Tinted Tan Serum – and the photos above really do give a guide as to how much you’ll be transformed with just one application. And yet… it’s a seamless effect, because this is a product that’s glides on easily and blends well, because it’s also moisturising, with ingredients like apricot oil, phyto-collagen and something by the name of Gatuline® Radiance.

Looking for a great – and affordable – BB cream? 💕 You’ll know that we’re big fans of this make-up format, for evening out skintone and reducing, nay, in many cases eliminating, the need to wear foundation. (Probably the greatest skinnovation to come out of Korea, in our opinion.) Well, @lorealparis Magic BB 5-in-1 really is a bargain. A third to a quarter of the price of many of its rivals, it’s sheer brilliance (in every way), rivalling anythng we’ve tried.

Sarah’s Health Notes: Healthy handbag must-haves 👜💕 This week’s inspiration came courtesy of a woman with an impressively prepared handbag. After a recent incident involving Sarah’s tall husband, a low medieval arch, and more blood than anyone really needed to see, it was a large plaster - produced with superhero timing - that saved the day. It got Sarah thinking: what are the small, smart things we should all carry, just in case? Alongside the trusty plaster (@elastoplastuk Water Resistant, FYI), she now won’t leave home without: ✨ @compeeduk Blister Plasters – tiny miracle cushions for sore feet. ✨ @zambuksa Ointment – herbal magic in a tin. ✨ A fold-up fan – essential when London decides to turn tropical. Sarah recommends heading online to @accessorize and order from their wider selection, like this pretty Palm Print one (above) with a tassel. ✨ @lanolips Tinted Balm SPF30 – lip protection and a pretty tint. ✨ Sheald Recovery Balm – for burns, bites, you name it. Available on @victoriahealth ✨ @4711 Cologne Wipes – refreshment with heritage and heavenly scent. ✨ @rescueremedyuk Spray – this combination of flower essences promises to ‘comfort and reassure‘ (good to have for children and any upset animals you may encounter) Call it the Beauty Bible Emergency Kit. Small things, big peace of mind 😌 Link in bio for more info 💖 #beautybibleloves #health #handbagmusthaves #wellbeing #sarahshealthnotes

How to reset your skin barrier (and why it matters) ✨ There’s been so much emphasis in skincare circles in the past decade about ‘getting your glow on.’ All manner of products to scrub and peel and remove the top, dull skin cells. And while we’re all for an occasional light (LIGHT!) buffing to stop cellular build-up, at Beauty Bible we’ve always maintained that maintaining the skin’s barrier function is absolutely crucial. It’s what stops bacteria and other nasties from getting in. And it’s what helps prevent vital moisture in the skin from evaporating. We have always felt that the skincare pendulum would swing back in the direction of barrier-building, rather than removing its protective layers – and at last, common sense is starting to prevail.

Fab Find of the Week: @connockengland Verdant collection 🤍 There aren’t many scents we come across that you’d feel happy wearing both on your skin, and to scent your surroundings with – but Connock England Verdant is really rather special. Created by Amanda Connock, who founded her British fragrance and beauty collection in 2010, with a fragrance called Kukui: warm, exotic, built around gardenia, with notes of Italian bergamot, jasmine, sandalwood… It was followed by Kukui Noir (a more intense, evening version) – but the just-launched Verdant collection brings it all back home to the English countryside, where Connock England is based. Green, fresh – all cut grass, hedgerows and summer sunshine, bottled – it’s just the scent for right this (overheated) minute.

Sarah’s Health Notes: Find your own ‘growlery’ Ever heard of a growlery? 📚 Years ago, Sarah read Charles Dickens’ Bleak House and made the delightful discovery of a ‘growlery’ A special room for retreating when life got overwhelming – a place to think, grumble, or simply be alone. Sarah created her own version – a grumpery, first a small terrace during the time she lived in London where she’d go to let off steam (husband wisely knew to stay clear). Later, it became something deeper: a sanctuary. Sarah then realised that a growlery/grumpery can also be a sanctuary. For 23 years her beloved horses provided just that - brushing, riding, mucking out – always present, never distracted. They gently demanded it. When the horses were gone, she realised she missed more than them. She missed that space. So now? It’s a spare room no one uses. A long, aimless train ride with a novel. Lying in a field, staring at clouds. Even grump-digging buttercups in the garden. The point isn’t the place. It’s the pause. The self-kindness. The decision not to snap or spiral – to soothe instead. And to come back a little more whole. 🌀 Whether it’s a spare office, a locked bathroom door, or five quiet minutes in your car – maybe it’s time to find your own growlery. #Growlery #MindfulMoments #HealthNotes #EmotionalReset #WellbeingSpace

Fab Find of the Week: @reia_store Handcare and Bodycare 🥰 We applaud the actions of beauty brands – and there are plenty of them – to embrace sustainability. But Reia, which we recently encountered at 2025’s Chelsea Flower Show, are making it easier than any other we’ve seen. Reia make truly gorgeous all-natural handcare and bodycare, with a small collection thus far, free from SLS/SLES, parabens and mineral oils. The products smell LOVELY – FEN is lime leaf, amber and vetiver are the key notes listed, with a scent that is designed to be ‘reminscent of the tangled hawthorns and rich flora found in British hedgerows’, we’re told. SILVA, meanwhile, blends juniper, petitgrain and rose geranium, for ‘a restorative experience with lasting warmth and depth.’ For bodies, there is VERDE – green leaves and grasses (we get vetiver), to send ‘your senses into fields dappled with sunlight.’ To us, they’re all just beautifully aromatic and natural-smelling.

Jo’s Scent Notes: @cologneandcotton Cinna 🤍 Slipping between crisp, clean sheets is one of life’s simplest pleasures — and long before The White Company was even a sparkle in Chrissie Rucker’s eye, Cologne & Cotton was already delivering bedlinen dreams from its charming spot on Kensington Church Street. To this day, their linens remain utterly sublime (don’t miss the hand-embroidered collections), but the magic doesn’t stop there. Step into a Cologne & Cotton store and you’ll discover a world of beautifully curated scented treasures — think Fragonard, Goutal Paris, Lalique, Durance, and the iconic Wiberg’s Pine Bath Essence (now sporting a chic Art Deco makeover). Recently, there was a long-overdue return visit - this time to their Marylebone store. The linen cupboard may be well stocked these days, but the draw was Cologne & Cotton’s newly relaunched and beautifully packaged fragrance collection. And what a joy to be introduced to the brand’s founders: sisters Vicky Shepherd and Jenny Deeming, who launched the business back in 1989 and remain very much at the helm.
