A @spacenk way to celebrate National Fragrance Week (and their scented news...) 🌟If you love fragrance, you might already know that this is National Fragrance Week. But there’s one scent destination that definitely needs to be on your radar, and that’s Space NK’s Fragrance Library pop-up, running from tomorrow at The Vinyl Factory in London’s Soho. Last night, Jo had the honour of hosting a Space NK dinner for journalists and truly amazing perfume brand founders, most of whom had flown in specially for this event, including Kilian, Phlur, Dedcool, DS&Durga, Ellis Brooklyn and VYRAO. It really marked the moment that this treasured retailer becomes a serious destination for fragrance, taking it to the next scented level as a place to explore exciting brands and scented newness.

Fab Find of the Week - @jomalonelondon Care Collection ⭐️We may never emerge from the bathroom… because Jo Malone London have launched an utterly blissful bodycare collection which is encouraging us to lavish much-needed TLC on areas of our bodies which have been hidden under layers for too, too long.For this sublime seven-piece line-up, they took inspiration from the rituals enjoyed at Britain’s Roman baths. (Indeed, from next month, there will be treatments at London’s AIRE Ancient Baths, a spa which takes its inspiration from Roman, Greek and Ottoman bathing rituals. And we can’t wait for that.)Link in bio to find out more 💖#beautybibleloves #fabfindoftheweek #selfcare #jomalone #carecollection
Our latest beauty steal is @rimmellondon Oh My Gloss! Butter Me Up ❤️Oh, but there is a flurry of truly great lip products launching right now. Actually, standing at the Superdrug counter yesterday, shopping for cotton pads and having a mooch, it was almost overwhelming, wondering where to start.Except we had the advantage of having tried this brilliant glossy balm at the CEW Product Demo evening last week (and this will not be the last ‘find’ we share with you from that evening of dipping, dabbing and trialling). On the strength of that brief encounter, we sought it out – and we need to share it with you now.This really does have a delicious, balm-y texture that is delivering relief to lips that have really and truly suffered, this enduringly cold winter. It’s glossy without being sticky, and we love the angled applicator – a dot squeezed from the tube is all you need to cover lips with a sheer veil of glossy, super-comfy colour.

Sarah’s Health Notes: Let’s celebrate Social Prescribing Day (Wednesday 19th March)💬 “In 2016 the Kings Fund, a London-based charity that works to improve health and care in England, published a report on Gardens and Health, making the case for integrating gardening into mainstream health policy and practice under the umbrella of social prescribing. It was the first time I’d heard the term ‘social prescribing’ and when I understood more about it, I thought it was one of the most brilliant all round policies for supporting people’s health and wellbeing.”Link in bio to read more 🫶#socialprescribingday #beautybible #healthnotes
Beauty Bible loves @thenaturalafrica Kalahari Melon Seed Oil 🧡If you wonder what it means when products promise to ‘revitalise’ or ‘rejuvenate’ your complexion – just try this new Kalahari Melon Seed Oil. We love facial oils and they’ve always done well in our consumer testing for Beauty Bible Awards but … another one? What, we wondered, could Kalahari Melon Seed Oil do better? Well, our bad. Using this lightweight golden oil on its own at night, as we did (although the brand also suggests using under sunscreen for day), the rosy glow and plumptious velvety smoothness were immediately obvious from the next morning. Don’t forget you could WIN a bumper bundle of The Natural Africa collection, including Kalahari Melon Seed Oil!

Beauty Bible Weekend Steal: @nyxcosmetics Wonder Pencil Highlighter 💕Do you ever somehow fall out of a beauty habit? The other morning, browsing in Boots on Oxford Street before a press breakfast, Jo spotted a double-ended highlighter pencil that reminded her: one of her best-ever beauty tricks was to add a line of highlight above the lip-line. It creates a more defined contour, but also the optical illusion of fuller lips. Somehow, at some (busy) point, she’d stopped doing it.But there was the perfect pencil, to resume the habit. With one end matte, one end shimmery, it is also good for adding a ‘lift’ just under the brow-bone. Even better? Times have moved on, and so have beauty brands, when it comes to offering a spectrum for all skintones. So, whereas once upon a time this sort of product tended to come in a shimmering ivory, NYX Professional Makeup Wonder Pencil Highlighter comes in five colour-coordinated shades.

But they’re responsible for distributing all manner of gorgeous perfume brands, ranging from spiffy and exotic Amouage through to good old Roger & Gallet.

Fab Find Of The Week: @velvetsmokeltd Filthy Rose Bath Soak 🛁Well, if this isn’t a match made in heaven, we’d like to know what is.The scent of Velvet Smoke’s Filthy Rose candle – a Beauty Bible fave, which we’ve raved about on several occasions has been transformed into a bath soak, in collaboration with the equally brilliant people at fellow female-founded brand @soapsmithlondon - creators of amazing, silkifying bath soaks (Beauty Bible Award-winners for those soaks, actually). Velvet Smoke, of course, was co-founded by our make-up artist friend @lisapotterdixon and her interiors dynamo friend Lia Briamonte ⭐️Their brand offers home fragrance, home accessories – and this is their first (but hopefully not last!) ‘beauty foray’.#beautybibleloves #fabfindoftheweek #bathsoak #bathproducts #soapsmith #collab
Beauty Steal: @biomed_uk oral care 🧡The key with toothbrushing is to want to do it. Well, BIOMED oral care will do just that, with really rather scrumptious flavours, high levels of natural ingredients (around 97% in most cases), and free from SLES, the foaming agent which can make mouths really sore and irritated. No fluoride, PEGs or chlorhexidine, either.It’s a big range, with something for everyone – BIOMED Sensitive Toothpaste (with actives to restore tooth enamel and reduce sensiviity); BIOMED Superwhite Natural Whitening Toothpaste; BIOMED Citrus Fresh Toothpaste (above – a lovely wake-up call first thing!), also incorporating juniper, birch leaf and plantain for their soothing effect on gums, and a specific BIOMED Gum Health Strengthening Toothpaste, which we love, with essential oils of eucalyptus, sage, rosemary and cedar.Link in bio to read more ⭐️#beautybibleloves #weekendsteal #oralcare #biomed #vegan

Sarah’s Health Notes: A-tish-ooo! It’s hay fever season again… 🤧The delights of Spring also presage hay fever with a runny nose, stuffed up sinuses, tickly throat and itchy, watery eyes. No mystery about the causes of seasonal allergic rhinitis, as it’s properly known. Pollen is the arch villain, in tandem with other airborne allergens like fungal spores – the fungi equivalent of seeds in plants – which also comes from mould in any form. (And with the deluges we’ve been having in the West Country, there’s a lot of mould about.) Some tree pollen is already peaking with more in March, before grass pollen starts causing problems from April to autumn. Read Sarah’s top tips to combat hay fever this spring and keep the runny nose at bay 💛#beautybible #healthnotes #hayfever #spring #healthtips #wellness

Jo’s Scent Notes: Éditions de Parfums @fredericmalle Portrait of a Lady (special edition) ❤️💬 “Portrait of a Lady is celebrating its 15th birthday with this gorgeous flame-red lacquered flacon. For 14 of those years, however, I didn’t feel grown up enough to wear it.Preposterous, I know. I am a grown woman, with decades of working experience and a lot of living behind me. Yet somehow… its sophistication is so off-the-scale that I didn’t feel I was worthy of ‘POAL’ (as it’s known for short in perfume circles)”POAL was created for the perfume ‘editor’ Frédéric Malle, by one of the world’s greatest noses, Master Perfumer Dominique Ropion, sometimes called ‘the master of flowers’. It is, many agree, his greatest of Dominique’s litany of masterpieces – and though really pricy, a must-smell for anyone who’s educating themselves about fragrance.Link in bio to find out more 🌟#beautybibleloves #scentnotes #fragrance #portraitofalady #fredericmalle #eaudeparfum
