Ren Skincare is a brand of skincare products that is truly going places. Their products are positively refreshing and completely free of the normal toxins that make up skincare products.

We recently reviewed a few of the products and discovered the joys of Ren for ourselves with skin feeling fresher, silkier and strangely enough holding the gorgeous fragrances for longer than most other products we’ve tried in the past.

Recently we’ve been a huge fan of Transformulas skincare but we can definitely say that Ren Skincare outperforms in every way.

We recommend:

Stage 1 – Moroccan Rose Otto Bath Oil - £26

Stage 2 - Ginger, Revivo-Tonic Two Sugar Body Scrub - £22.50

Stage 3 - Damask Rose Ramnose Biosaccharide Body Cream - £24.50

Forming part of the new Pretty Polly Naturals range, these clever little tights are designed for women who don’t want to bare all when wearing skirts and dresses to work. Perfect for open toe shoes, you have to look really hard to see that you are actually wearing a pair of tights!

These open toe tights give off a transparent appearance but also provide a cooling effect which is perfect for the hot summer ahead. They’ve also got strength on their side and are made of a lightweight elastic design that gently adheres to the skin, leaving no residue, all tested to be hypoallergenic.

Want a pair? You can get them from our friends at TightsPlease.co.uk

Having searched high and low for a ‘little book of’ anything to do with style and fashion to review for you I stumbled across three all in one go!

They are all by the same author and follow a very cute and readable format. The three titles are:

‘Things a Woman Should Know About Style’
‘Things a Woman Should Know About Beauty’
‘Things a Woman Should Know About Shoes’

image

They each retail for around £9.99 and make a lovely Mothers’S Day gift idea or simply a pressie for a best friend. Each has around 200 pages and although there’s a vast amount of text it’s really nicely broken up into inspirational quotes, short tales, advice, history…. You name it.

Nice easy reading and a quality hardback t the price.

Here’s a quick piece of inspiration from ‘Things a Woman Should Know About Style’ which I have found to be incredibly true:

“Women who wear black lead colourful lives” Neiman Marcus Advertisment.

Buy them here.

You can only take so much Hollywood gossip sometimes and need a break from all those same-old-same old stories in the glossies. That’s probably why ‘Yours’ has ventured into something a little different with a one off title called ’50 Years of Everyday Fashion’ which is currently flying off the shelf at a Sainsbury’s near you for £4.99.

Do you want to see what your mum used to look like back in the glorious days of disco, or perhaps even those shoulder padded Dynasty 80’s? It’s a fascinatingly addictive flic that’s full 132 pages of great pics and short stories, and therefore well worth a peek in my opinion.

As a stylist I’m getting some great inspiration from it, especially the crazy 80’s… fashion was clearly in a strange place with Shell suits and pixie boots!

The magazine is on sale up until the 2nd April 2008 so don’t hang about, pick up your copy today!
