Jo’s Scent Notes: @loccitane_uk Flora Orchestra 😍 Jo takes readers inside L’Occitane’s newly refreshed Flora Orchestra collection - unveiled at a pastel-pretty Fitzrovia dinner celebrating the brand’s upcoming 50th year. After months of testing the full collection, Jo shares the four fragrances she’s unexpectedly fallen for - and why this is a range that begs to be layered, played with, and personalised. From the almond-soft charm of Noble Épine, to the lavender of Lavande Poivre Noire, the mood-boosting citrus woods of Cédrat, and her new obsession, the incense-cedar comfort of Cèdre Encens, Jo reveals the scent combinations she’s been spritzing on repeat.

🌟 Fab Find of the Week: @wild_england ✨ We’re rather wild about Wild England, a new range that recently landed on our desks (and rapidly made its way to our bedside tables). What we were sent to try, actually, were the travel sizes – but what an excellent way to find out whether you want to go full-size. (Think you will.) In particular, we’re super-keen on the two bodycare products, above. Perfect time of year for these, when suddenly, the central heating’s ramped up big-time, and body skin will be crying for nourishment before we know it. They’re both fab – these are two of Wild England’s signature scents, Sweet Orange & Cardamom and Lavender & Eucalyptus – and the latter just nudges ahead in the fragrance stakes, for us.

It’s not the strangest of partnerships, since Mugler’s beauty and fragrance arm belongs to L’Oréal – but it’s still an innovative tie-up. (Not as cheap-as-chips as our usual Weekend Steals, but for designer make-up? A definite bargain.)

💙 Fab Find of the Week: @ameliorateskin (with its cool new look) ✨ AMELIORATE are just heroic at tackling some really tough skin challenges. Like bumpy ‘chicken skin’ on upper arms. Or flaky, itchy scalps. Or breakouts on face, chest, back (in an unaggressive but effective way.) Trouble is… the packaging hasn’t been that – well, sexy. And… it sounds shallow, but when a product is visually appealing, we’re more likely to reach for it, make it part of a ritual (and see benefits). All that has changed with what is honestly a gorgeous rebrand. Same effective products, but ones that you’re now going to be proud to have on display and enjoy using. (If you don’t know the range, BTW, AMELIORATE is a UK dermatologist-led brand, powered by a unique LaH6 hydration complex (to respect skin’s barrier function.)

Individually they’re £15 each, but honestly, they smell like something ten times the price. ✨ PixiMimosa – soft, airy, a little green. Feels like spring in a bottle. 🌹 PixiRose – a fresh, modern rose with a squeeze of lemon. 💚 PixiFig – earthy, green and quietly addictive. Totally took us by surprise. The twist-and-spray packaging is genius, the scents are beautifully done, and the value is kind of ridiculous. Run, don’t walk. Link in bio to find out more ✨ #PixiBeauty #weekendsteal

✨ Beauty Bible Weekend Steal: Maybelline Lifter Glaze Lip Oil Balm 💄 There are some advantages to leaving home for a mini-break without a single one of the dozen or so lip oils and balms that you’d normally find in our various pockets. Like: discovering something fabulous and new, to ease lips that are definitely not liking the drier atmosphere indoors now that the central heating’s back on. (At least for the evenings!) The formula for Maybelline New York Lifter Glaze Lip Oil Balm honestly rivals many we’ve tried at three, four times the price. This balm-oil hybrid – honestly like a lip oil, in stick form – is instantly comforting and nourishing. One slick: sheer colour, instant comfort.

Fab Find of the Week: @thisworks discoveries (and rediscoveries) ✨ There’s a special corner of our bedside tables and our bathroom shelves for This Works. It’s a little like having an ‘Ottolenghi Corner’ in your spice cupboard, only in the case of This Works, everything gets used regularly. Because… quite simply… everything does work. Brilliantly. (And don’t just take our word for it; there are several This Works products deemed ‘best in class’ by our testers, over the years, which make it to the pages of the new Beauty Bible book appearing next year.) In particular, This Works know about sleep. They’ve conducted clinical trials into their sleep products which simply confirm what we know: when we have sleep issues, nothing works like This Works. After a couple of nights of terrible sleep this week (too much to do, too little time), Jo reached for the new-ish Deep Sleep Beauty Oil and honestly, it was like knockout drops, which pretty much kept her zzz-ing straight through to morning.

🌿 Sarah’s Health Notes: The Power of Feeling Grateful ✨ In her latest post, Sarah reflects on how a grey, rainy Monday morning turned brighter thanks to a cup of tea, a wagging tail, and a little gratitude. Inspired by singer and new mum Suki Waterhouse’s new app With Gratitude, Sarah explores how noting even the smallest joys - from a kind gesture to a flash of autumn colour - can shift our mood and even benefit our brains. Backed by science, gratitude can lower stress, boost happy hormones, and help us connect more deeply with others. As Sarah writes, feeling grateful doesn’t just make you nicer - it makes life feel richer. 🌤️ 👉 Read the full post via the link in bio 💕 #beautybibleloves #healthnotes #gratitude #wellbeing #positivity

Jo’s Scent Notes: @nyitacollection Celestia Extrait de Parfum 🖤🌟

Jo’s Scent Notes: @nyitacollection Celestia Extrait de Parfum 🖤🌟 It is no mean feat to create a fragrance using only natural ingredients. Often, they fall flat or lack some kind of fairy dust sparkle that brings a scent alive. It’s why perfumers often turn to synthetics, maintaining that they are required to add that essential dazzle and light. But that wouldn’t do for NYITA founder Rebecca Jaquest, who goes almost literally to the ends of the earth to find beautiful, natural and sustainable ingredients for her products – up till now, bath oils and a somewhat heart-stoppingly-priced candle. Last week, perfume-loving writers gathered at spiffy Claridge’s for a session with Rebecca at which she explained where she’d sourced the oils for her debut fragrance – and allowed us to smell other natural extracts of the same ingredient.

🪄 🌟 Fab Find of the Week: @kikomilano One Magic Touch Lip Stylo 👄 ✨ Honestly, THE cleverest make-up item we’ve seen in many a long year. Because KIKO Milano One Magic Touch Lip Stylo is the first truly one-handed lipstick we’ve ever come across. Touch the button (it looks a bit like a wax seal). Slide it up. (WITH ONE HAND.) The bullet appears magically from the end, ready for applying. And then when you’re done, you just reverse the process. Magically, it disappears back into the golden tube. This would be notable enough in its own right, but the formula’s fab, too. Really intensely pigmented – there’s a choice of a dozen shades, from a deep nude through to a choice of showstopping reds – it’s deceptively lightweight; you barely feel anything’s there. AND it’s non-drying. AND it’s long-lasting, once you’ve applied it (WITH ONE HAND). We’re not sure how many ticks that is, but it’s a lot, for any lipstick.
