Our Watch Shop Favourites

Posted on September 23, 2015 by Sarah Bacchus

The Watchshop.com has just launched its latest collection and we attended the preview last week. So here are Our Watch Shop Favourites that might inspire you for your Christmas shopping. Yes I did just utter those terrifying 2 little words. We have just 93 days till we all unwrap our loved ones little treasures. We find that giving amazing gifts is better than receiving them. Well I do, and I love to purchase what’s hot and happening on the arm candy front.

I will be putting together a little Christmas gift guide very soon so make sure you check in closer to Christmas for that. For now these little beauties stood out and said, “Hey look at me…You know who would love to wear me on Christmas day!”
Here is one of the stratford watches. This one would be perfect for the man in your life that loves traditional styling or retro cool. Its very hipster and would easily look utterly fabulous worn by a fashionista like myself. Just think ripped black skinny jeans, oversized mans crisp white shirt and a pair vibrant orange heels to bring out the glorious teal face and rose gold trim. The price tag for this (now my personal favourite) Is a joyful £89.95 and they come in a few different colours.

This Armani exchange Serena watch is the perfect match for multiple outfits. So this would be a great purchase if you love to change up your look. Or if your unsure what colour watch face to treat someone to. At just £132 its a real steal for a drop of designer style.

This Stunning Guess sunrise watch is so beautifully crafted and it had me so excited when I first caught sight of it. This is a real statement watch for those trend setters that love a touch of tradition. With the crocodile skin design these roman numerals really pop out. Its priced at £189.99 and I think its worth every penny. To open this on Christmas day would be a really breathtaking moment.

This Guess ladies sparkling pink watch priced at £129.99 is in aid of Get in Touch Foundation. All the profits from this sale of this pretty number benefit the fight against breast cancer. With its pretty rose gold and crystal design we can see this being a really popular piece for this Christmas.
Juicy Couture have outdone themselves with this amazing daydreamer watch. If you want a pop of colour to add that touch of fun then this is the watch for you. The floral design make this the ideal gift for those girly girls. Someone that loves their floral dresses and feminine touches. Its priced at a very reasonable £95.00. The perfect understated, statement item.

Then we have this stunning Orla Kiely ladies Patricia watch. The perfect gift for (I think) any girl. Its pretty, cute a little retro but with a modern twist. Its priced at an incredible £79.95. For a little bit of eclectic cool I think thats one very desirable gift idea. The colour of the beige leather strap really enhance the watch face. What an ideal watch to wear with an all black ensemble. Or for those ladies that only ever wear black, this is a great addition to add a little subtle colour to their wardrobe. It would lift any outfit and bring it up to date.

Then lastly the Mondaine Swiss Railway clock. This is a must for any London household. Its on my loft apartment wish list. Imagine it sitting against an exposed brick wall or a crisp white wall in any kitchen, lounge, living room or even bedroom. Classic London living at its height of sophistication. This statement clock is priced at £285. Place it in a prime location to really show this time piece off to its best.

There you have it, the first of my Christmas gift ideas list! For more gift ideas or if you just want to update your accessories then pop over to the Watch Shops website HERE.

Hyalual® … Could This Be The Breakthrough In Anti-aging Therapy?

Posted on September 21, 2015 by Corinne Tuddenham-Finn

Skincare is my thing.

Forever on the lookout for the best beauty products, they must be effective, easy to use, smell good, give me a glowing complexion and an English Rose peachiness. It’s not too much to ask…

But it’s a skincare minefield out there. Which brand do you choose?

Spoilt for choice, it’s a wonder we ever manage to buy any at all!

I’ve been desperate to try the flagship skincare range from HyaLual® since rumours of its existence began to circulate, and during my recent trip to London Fashion Week, have been extravagantly spritzing myself with the products courtesy of my lovely friend, celebrity hairdresser, Steven Smith, an ambassador of the products.

It became apparent that the consistency of the products had a soothing, healing and moisturising effect on my skin with an uplifting quality that improved my mood, making it a welcome addition to the weekend’s beauty routine.

Since our lives are more hectic than ever and time is increasingly precious, urban life stresses our skin – the delicate barrier, and if you want to influence its internal structure and improve the outward appearance, you have to nourish it.

I fell in love with the pinnacle of the HyaLual® brand, the Daily DeLux…

Most of us tend to be guilty of taking the easy option when it comes to looking after our skin – we want a one-stop product that works for the day and night. By day, our skin is bombarded by the environment, attacked by sunlight, pollution and central heating, so we need a product that will protect and hydrate it, providing a barrier that will lock in moisture – but night-time is when our complexion gets to work repairing itself, we need a product that will give our skin the best chance to restore itself.

Nu Skin Galvanic Spa Review

Posted on August 13, 2015 by Sarah Bacchus

I have used the Nu Skin Galvanic Spa for the last 4 weeks and it has really changed my skin for the better. At the cost of 2 professional salon visits it’s well worth the hype. I now can see amazing results in the comfort of my own bathroom. It’s lifted my jaw line. My cheeks, around my mouth and eyes have really been smoothed out. Also my pores actually look like I have spent a fortune on weekly treatments. The fine lines are around my eyes have all but vanished. it looks like I have expensive spa visits. It’s a little like ironing out the skin. The more you use this device the better the results. What’s great about this is that I found it actually works much like a professional Galvanic machine. These work by sending a current through the skin and enable products to be penetrated deeper into the underlying cells. And also to cleanse the skin to allow the new podcast to be introduced. It will create a slight metallic taste, this is completely normal and professional services do just the same.

I use the Nu Skin Galvanic Spa (incredible little gadget) around 3 times a week for 5 minutes a time for each gel stage that comes with the kit. I just pop it into my regular nighttime routine and I’m sorted.

Nu Skin Galvanic Spa Routine

I take off my makeup with an oil based lotion. This will get rid of stubborn eye makeup and daily build up of London life.
I then cleanse with my skin with Caudilie facial foam. I will do a full review of this very soon!
I then chop off the end of the pre gel treatment and apply 1/2 of the tube all over my face.
Then I damp my hand under the tap and place my fingers on the metal pad at the back.
Turn on the machine to No1 and start to gently use upward motions, a bit like a facial massage. You will hear the machine beep and this tells you its working.
I do this for about 2 1/2 minutes then move onto the other side. This stage is the deep cleansing stage where its having a souphficaton effect. This means its turning the grease and grime into a soap like substance that can be washed off.
Then it time for the treatment mode No2. Cut open the treatment tube and add 1/2 to the entire face and just repeat the movements from before.
If I am doing my weekly mask I would apply this now for about 10- 20 mins while relaxing in the bath.
I then lightly remove any excess and apply a pea sized amount of Nu Skin night cream.
I always follow this with my Hydropeptide eye cream! Check out my article here on some other incredible products.

When I used the Nu Skin Galvanic Spa for the first time I decided to do just one side of my face! It’s truly amazing and I suggest if you purchase this bathroom anti ageing buddy that you do the same!! I get told all the time that I have amazing skin and regularly get asked for ID! I think this really has helped loads over the last few weeks as my skin hasn’t looked this great in months.

Once the skin has gone too far with the ageing process we can only maintain what we have. Their is no miracle cure and its all down to upkeep. You need to know that the effectiveness of expensive salon facial electrical treatments are not miracle workers but they will assist to help keep the skin in good condition. But also you need to have regular treatments going forward or the effects will be lost and your money just wasted. I have had this little device for over 6 months and annoyed I didn’t start using it sooner. I am now converted and happy to have this little baby sitting on its stand taking pride and place on my vanity unit!
