It’s Spookily good for you – Snail Gel by Amanda Lewis

This is no Halloween tall tale, Dr Organics actually harvest snail slime to create a eco conscious beauty range that is amazing for your skin. Seriously though I have been wondering how you harvest snail slime, answers on a postcard please?

Snails make Helix Aspersa Muller, which enables them to regenerate its shell and skin if damaged.

Snail slime has long been known for its amazing healing and soothing properties, once the scientists got involved they discovered that it contains super high levels of allantoin, collagen and elastin all things that does your skin good.

So, time to try it out. First impressions were good, it’s rich, non-greasy and smells very botanical and fresh, not snaily whatsoever. Skin looked brighter and felt firmer.

As its organic it’s free from any nasty substances – such as petro chemicals, parabens and additives or snails! What more could you ask for !

Step into the Nuit – Nuit d’Issey by Issey Miyake

Way back in 1994, some twenty years ago, a men’s fragrance burst onto the scene, which not only took it rock the industry, but has since become a real classic, in every sense of the word. L’Eau d’Issey Pour Homme has become a hallmark of sophistication in the world of fragrances. It awakens the senses with its blend of citrus, precious woods and spices. The pure, energising, unmistakable scent is perfect for a modern, independent man.

Fast forward to 2014 and we see the launch of Nuit d’Issey inspired by the mysteries of the night, it’s an ode to wood, and evanescence of rich ingredients mingled with the opulence and potency of the night. The scent hits you with the bright top notes of zesty Citrus accords. Elegant masculine Bergamot blends with sharp grapefruit for an explosion of the scenes.

The fragrance then continues to take you on a mysterious trail where a health dose of leather, enhanced with spices and black pepper are laden down with wood and vetiver. The attraction of rich textured notes, black woods, patchouli and incense all combine with the sweetness of tonka bean.

With the strength of woods and the potency of sensual leathery notes underscore the intentionally very masculine character of Nuit d’Issey Issey.
