Shiseido S-Touch Analyzer machine, helping you to spend more money

Shisedido_s_touch_analyser

Six Shisedio stores in the UK will soon be getting one of these pieces of wizardry on their counters. The S-Touch Analyzer can apparently analyse your skin and tell you things like your skin type, skin vitality, texture, cell turnover, wrinkles, elasticity and and levels of melanin. From this, obviously, Shisedio can sell you lots of products to remedy your depressing skin problems (because, lets face it, these machines never give out good news). You can go back six weeks later and see how much your skin has improved and spend loads more money. It's a never ending cycle of spending!

Via Selfridges, who have the  S-Touch Analyzers in their Oxford Street and Manchester stores from September.

Review: Kimia Exquisite Rejuvenating Facial System

Kimia Nowadays, it's rare to come across a product that doesn't promise to leave you glowing. But what's rarer, is products that actually deliver that promise. Luckily for me (and you seeing as I'm reluctantly sharing my discovery) I've struck lucky in the glow-getting treasure hunt.

Kimia Exquisite Rejuvenating Facial System is a two step procedure of facial oil and a hydra-activator. Both are created exclusively with natural ingredients such as Neroli, Murula, Rosehip Oil and Lady's Mantle, and used together, they make my skin a more youthful, plumped, and yes, glowing version of its former self. Not only does it make it look better, but it feels better too. My moisturiser and make up go on so easily and beautifully, I seriously began to wonder if I'd had a skin transplant...

Review: A'Kin Organic Pure Radiance Rosehip Oil

Akin_rosehip_oil_organic It's hard with beauty products to know which of the many so called 'miracle' products you really need. Well, you don't need to use A'kin's Rosehip oil, but your skin will love you for it if you do. I used this product as a night treatment, applied after cleansing and before bed. Purely because it was an oil, I found it a little too greasy for daytime use. My skin's been through some pretty tough times this last month (surfing is about as punishing as it gets, what with sea water and UV rays) but you know what, my skin actually looks better for it, and I've got organic rosa canina seed extracts to thank for that...

Lauren Hutton has a make up line?

Lauren_hutton_beauty
Nothing but good genes can make you actually look like Lauren Hutton (who is in her sixties, would you believe), but just by looking at her make up and skin care lines you can tell they've had a lot of good thought behind them. The Face Disc Plus is a one-stop, personalisable kit including concealers, highlighters and tints to help you make the most of what you've got, no matter if you're 26 or 60. The Concealer Kit is another stand out product, which is available in four skin tone variants and contains no less than ten concealers - surely enough to effectively cover anything!
