Ditch the tinted moisturiser, and bring a matte foundation back into your make-up regime. Only use where you really need it to keep the look light.2. Keep eyes neutral by building up layers of kohls and eye shadows in simple beige and chocolate tones. Finish with dark brown mascara for a softer look.3. Put away your bronzer and go for a flattering warm blush to add definition dusky pink colours suit most complexions and a touch of highlighter will brighten your skin.4. Long lasting lip colour is crucial now isnt the time for summer glosses. Dig out a matte lipstick a shade or two darker than your natural lip colour and use a quick sweep of Lipcote to seal the deal.5. Remember, going neutral doesnt mean you need to cut back to the bare essentials. Its hard to go wrong with neutral colour so experiment with tones rather than bright flashes of colour.Whatever colour or finish you chose this season, Lipcote gives lips long-lasting definition in an instant without affecting the true shade of the chosen lipstick. Set in a few seconds, a simple sweep of Lipcote locks any colour on lips for hours through its special kiss, water and smudge-proof formula. Maintaining sensational looking lips after eating and drinking is no problem with Lipcote and even in changeable weather conditions of the season, that luscious look is maintained with this cult classic sealer.Why choose from a limited range of long-lasting lipsticks that can dry your lips and stain clothes, when Lipcote allows you the freedom to colour coordinate with any shade?Retailing at 3.49, Lipcote is available at Boots, Superdrug, ASDA, Tesco, Sainsburys and independent pharmacies and boutiques nationwide.

According to a recent Trevor Sorbie survey, men are going grey earlier than ever before, and many younger men blame the current economic climate for their premature grey hair. Amongst the 20-34 year old age group who have already noticed grey hairs, 46% of those blame work stress and/or money troubles as a key reason and a quarter of those cite a fear of losing their job due to the recession as the reason. Additionally a third of 20-34 year olds would also consider dying their grey hair specifically for a job interview.Trevor Sorbie M.B.E has announced the launch of his new Trevor Sorbie Professional Mg hair and beard colours for men. Following extensive research, as well as the core older market, the range specifically targets the younger man who wants to combat the very first signs of grey hair, and for whom previously suitable products have not existed.”Although we knew there was gap in the market when we started developing this product, even I am surprised by these survey results and how the demands of modern life are causing some men to go grey at such a young age.

Riverbanks Clinic’s latest patient survey revealed that 95% of patients were extremely satisfied by the end of their consultation at the discreet Harpenden clinic.Riverbanks Clinic is renowned for its high standard of patient care, top calibre doctors and tranquil location and its latest patient survey conducted last month revealed that every patient questioned had an excellent consultation with a doctor who was ‘polite and considerate and very good at listening to what they had to say’.The survey of 20 patients from a spectrum of age groups also revealed that they were not only satisfied with the opportunity to ask questions but also the ability to receive answers to all their questions. They also stated that each doctor was very clear by explaining in the way they can understand and the patients were allowed to be involved in as much as they wanted to be when it came to decisions about their care and treatment. Dr Ravi Jain, medical director at Riverbanks Clinic and former Harley Street practitioner is delighted with the results of the survey has urged other businesses to focus on customer service as a way of building and maintaining their customer base during a difficult trading period.”Customer satisfaction and a good reputation is the most important asset you can poses, especially in the cosmetic industry where clients need that extra bit of support and dialogue from the doctors in order to feel comfortable going ahead with a procedure. At Riverbanks Clinic, we’ve certainly seen this to be the case which is why many of our new patients have come to us through word of mouth recommendations,” says Dr Jain.Riverbanks Clinic opened the doors to its new refurbished clinic in Autumn 2008 and has experienced phenomenal growth this year despite the recession. With ‘Best New Clinic’ and ‘Best Business Development’ Awards tucked neatly under their belt, Dr Jain and his team at Riverbanks Clinic were recognised by the Aesthetic Medicine Awards judges for their ‘high standards of patient-centred care’, and Dr Jain believes it is this aspect, combined with the quality of staff at the clinic that has contributed to such high levels of customer satisfaction in patients.”During an economic downturn, businesses need to focus as much on their existing customer base as they do on bringing new custom in and our latest patient survey shows that there is no need to cold call or spend thousands on advertising. Customer service is the best kind of selling, it’s not difficult, it creates a great atmosphere and best of all it’s free. All it takes is listening carefully to individual’s requirements and expectations. At Riverbanks for example, we clearly outline ways in which patients can regain and maintain their skin’s vitality, suppleness and glow. We can help them select the procedures that will best benefit them in the long term, and help them develop an ongoing programme to get the most out of the treatments they choose,” adds Dr Jain.

As far back as the 1930s, scientist McCay et al discovered that by giving mice, fish and flies a calorie restricted diet they were able to extend the lifespan of the animals and subdue the aging process. Although the possible role of a calorie-restriction diet for slowing the aging process in humans is still under investigation, studies do seem to support the claim that by including certain foods in the diet and controlling the amount of calories we eat, we may be able to not only extend life expectancy but also produce and maintain a healthy body and youthful skin. So here is Femme Slenders Anti Aging Guidelines:AvocadoInclude avocado in your diet since its a good source of vitamin E and can help prevent skin aging and is also rich in potassium which helps prevent fluid retention which can often give the illusion of being fat, despite being water retention.BerriesMost berries (e.g. blackberries, blueberries and blackcurrants) contain anti-oxidants known as flavonoids which can help fight against free radicals that can cause skin aging amongst many other health problems.Avoid SugarAvoid sugar in your diet since not only is it the primary factor in fat gain (lipolysis) but it is also responsible for aging the skin through a process known as glycationGarlicEating a clove of garlic a day helps to protect the body against diseases associated with aging such as cancer and heart disease. For example a study conducted in 1994 in Iowa, USA of 41,837 women between the age of 55 and 69 suggested that women who ate a clove of garlic at least once a week were 50 % less likely to develop colon cancer. Another study at Tasgore Medical College in India suggested that garlic reduced cholesterol levels and assisted blood thinning, thus helping to reduce the risk of heart disease.GingerGinger has been shown to have many anti-aging properties, including boosting the digestive and circulatory system and alleviating rheumatic aches and pains.WatermelonNot many people know that all of the water melon is highly nutritional, the skin contains vitamin A, B and C whilst the seeds contain selenium, essential fatty acids, zinc and vitamin E all of which help against free radical damaging and therefore aging. (A great way to digest all of the water melon is buy a juicer and process the entire fruit into a drink.)SupplementsDesigned to maintain healthy hair, skin and nails Femme Slender has scientifically formulated the synergistic mega-strength supplement Glamorous which contains every essential vitamin and mineral needed to give you healthy, perfect looking skin hair and nails.

Having worked for ten years in the beauty industry as a chemist, Dr Barbara Olioso came to the conclusion that skincare products could be made better. She explains: Many industry-wide skincare products have emulsifiers which can clog pores. This becomes a real problem because your skin changes all the time due to age, stress and hormones. The current approach means that your skin has to adapt to the product rather than vice versa. I believe that nature knows best.To address this problem Dr Barbara developed her own personalised skin care range with anti-aging properties and then set up Organatural Cosmetic Developments in May 2006, to market the product under the brand name of Forest Secrets Skincare.The Wells-based business has been given the confidence to take its premium skincare products to international markets following the endorsement of film stars and with the support of UK Trade and Investment.In 2008, Dr Barbara learnt from professional facialist Nuz Shugaa that she used the Forest Secrets Skincare products on movie stars, including some of the actresses in the Mamma Mia film, who extolled its virtues.After some initial successes in the UK and galvanised by the Hollywood testimonials, Dr Barbara was keen to develop her business international trade potential. She began working with UKTI International Trade Advisor Tony Holt in June 2008 ago following a recommendation by a peer. She said: UKTIs Passport programme provided very good mentoring for someone looking to trade internationally. Having trained as a chemist, I found the courses brilliant as they allowed me to learn about marketing and about using the internet to promote and sell my products. Overall, the programme gave me the right mindset for business and allowed me to understand the range of opportunities out there.Its currently a time of change and challenge for the industry. Women still want to invest in their skin, but they are now more careful with how they spend their money. The most promising markets identified through working with UKTI those with potential customers who still have money to spend on their skincare – are China and the United Arab Emirates.Being a one-woman business, I need to focus on one prospect country at a time, starting with China, and there is already some strong interest there regards our iRejuvenate product. The support that Tony and the team at UKTI have provided has been invaluable and I look forward to working with them as we look to new overseas markets.Tony Holt, UKTI International Trade Advisor said: As well as a distributor in Italy and good contacts in France, Barbara already has several potential opportunities in China. The Forest Secrets Skincare products are generating a lot of interest overseas and I am confident that Barbara will continue to grow the business through international trade, especially when she the product is receiving recommendations from film stars.

Be Genki has been granted accreditation by Choose Cruelty Free (CCF) – an independent, non-profit organisation which actively promotes a cruelty-free lifestyle.CCF acknowledges that none of the Be Genki products and none of the Be Genki product ingredients have ever been tested on animals by it, by anyone on its behalf, by its suppliers or anyone on their behalf.I am so delighted that Be Genki has been recognised and acknowledged by such a highly respected company – Choose Cruelty Free. We are very conscious at Be Genki to ensure that all aspects of the business are carried out in an ethical manner and as time goes by I am constantly looking at ways in which we can reduce our impact on the environment, explains Sam Sample (Be Genki founder).Animal testing is one of those practices that just simply should not be. It is not necessary to ensure consumer safety and there are many other testing procedures that can be carried out that do not harm animals. Why companies still havent employed these cruelty-free methods puzzles me.Hopefully consumers are becoming more aware of how powerful their choices can be. Instead of blindly shopping for products at the supermarket, I strongly urge consumers to be conscious shoppers and read labels to see where their dollar is going and what it is supporting.Only buy products that have not been tested on animals. Look out for the Choose Cruelty Free logo. By purchasing only approved cruelty-free products, you reward those ethical companies which do not make profits by testing upon animals and voice your opposition to the cruel and unnecessary practice of animal testing used by others.Choose Cruelty Free is designed to:~ Encourage manufacturers and service providers to adopt a cruelty-free ethic.~ Survey companies which claim to sell products that have not been tested on animals and do not contain cruelly-derived ingredients and accredits (without charging a fee) companies which satisfy CCF’s criteria. Accreditation criteria is probably the most stringent in the world today. Accreditation and listing in the Preferred Products List (PPL) are free of charge. The PPL is a booklet listing companies and brand names that operate under a cruelty-free ethic, providing consumers with information so they can choose products according to their personal ethical standards.~ Make available (by way of a licensing arrangement) an independent, consumer recognised logo which manufacturers can incorporate in their labelling and advertising material to readily identify their companies as cruelty-free.~ Make people aware of their power, as consumers, to change attitudes about testing products on animals.

Wouldnt it be great if you could buy just one product to improve your complexion, soften wrinkles and tackle abdominal bloating and weight gain?Natures Best Colladeen is a natural supplement derived from bilberry and grapeseed extracts that helps preserve levels of collagen in the body. By doing so it maintains the skins collagen and hence promotes firm, supple skin and a fresh complexion. At the same time it helps ease fluid retention, which leads to abdominal bloating, puffy ankles and weight gain.Colladeen for skincareCollagen forms 75% of the skin and is responsible for the smooth, plump and flawless appearance of young and healthy skin as its the protein that forms connective fibre in skin, cartilage and capillaries. Sustained damage leads to weaker skin with visible signs of lines and wrinkles as the skin loses its elasticity. Lots of nutrients are needed to keep collagen healthy but increasingly research has focussed on a class of natural plant compounds called anthocyanidins found in dark skinned fruits. Research shows that these compounds can help to reinforce and preserve collagen.Colladeen for fluid retentionMost women above the age of 25 worry about the condition of their skin and dread looking in the mirror to see the first wrinkles starting to appear. Perhaps less acknowledged but equally upsetting is that 17 million women in the UK suffer from non-medical fluid retention and resulting in bloated tummies and swollen ankles. Most symptoms of swelling or puffiness are a result of imperfections in the walls of tiny blood vessels, that allows fluid to leak out into surrounding tissues. The usual approach is the use of diuretics, however, this doesnt tackle the underlying problem which is usually the result of free radical damage to the collagen that makes up the blood vessels walls. The high level of anthocyanidins in the Natures Best Colladeen helps by strengthening the leaky vessels in the way that nature intended.With beauty and health issues tackled with such ease, the multi-tasking nature of Colladeen means you can spend less time in front of the mirror and more time and money on enjoying your new younger look.Natures Best Colladeen costs just 14.95 for 60 tablets.

According to research by FitParks, September is the new January for women wanting to lose weight, get fit and change their lifestyles. Women who kick-start their exercise regimes in autumn are more likely to maintain their slim and healthy routine.FitParks is the latest project by FitFarms, awarded the UKs number one weight-loss camp by the Sunday Times. Research from our fitness camps show that women who try and lose weight in September are twice as likely to achieve their goal than those who start in January, says Julie Brealy, health manager at FitFarms. Although most people start diet and exercise resolutions in January, the cold weather and post-Christmas slump actually makes it harder to keep up these promises.Seasonal Affective Disorder is thought to affect around 7.2 million women in the UK each year meaning it can be difficult to stay positive during the winter months.September has traditionally been the back-to-school period, a time to make changes and start afresh.

A 28 year old British Entrepreneur is hoping to make a difference in the world of Private Cosmetic, Obesity, Laser Eye and Hair Restoration Surgery by selling an online consultation on her website.Victoria Cooper, from Warwickshire, England, set up allaboutsurgery.co.uk after thinking of idea to improve patient awareness within the Private Medical sector. Having undergone private cosmetic surgery herself and experience complications first hand she soon realised the lack of patient awareness and varied information made available to patients. Victoria said there are hundreds of patients that have surgery that are not clear of all of the risks and potential complications that can occur.She said: I want the site to allow patients to learn about every aspect of the surgery they desire, the hospital and clinics, the registration off these clinics and surgeons within them and the risks and benefits of surgery, but from the privacy of their own home first, before they have to commit to an expensive consultation within a clinic where they are sold to by very experience and sometimes pushy sales people.Victoria claims already to have had hundreds of hits on the site, with several patients opting for an online consultation. Although Victoria admits that one client is a friend Glen, who is loosing his hair.Glen, 40, commented I knew Victoria has been working on this site and I had previously expressed an interest in hair restoration, so once the site was launched I thought what the hell, lets go for it and learn something about this procedure. Its taught me a lot about Male Pattern Baldness and reasons for this and also ways to stop its effects and even restoring the hair using varied surgical techniques so watch this space!I think this site will appeal to anyone contemplating surgery. Its easier to learn online than go for numerous consultations around the UK, taking time of work and possibly your partner also, with high city centre parking costs and then being in a high pressure sales environment with pressure to book on before you have really thought about all the risks and possibilities from surgery. Remember, some consultations can cost in excess of 100. This one is can be viewed in your own time from the comfort of your own homeShe believes that the consultation is exceptional value at 3.50 as the consultation covers all aspects of surgery and lasts around 30 minutes without interruption. Its a long time to talk non stop for 30 minutes Victoria explained.Asked what she will do next, Victoria said Having covered Cosmetic Surgery, Obesity Surgery, Laser Eye Surgery and Hair Restoration Surgery, I have some other private treatments that I would like to add to the site for to improve patient awareness which I think would suite an online consultation initially, before they commit to seeing a surgeon or doctor. After that I have some other ideas I would like to invest in.

Edelweiss is the most treasured flower of the Alps and grows in altitudes up to 2,700 metres (9,000 feet). In order to cope with the harsh environment and intense exposure to sunlight, the plant has developed several protection mechanisms, which the skin can benefit from, such as moisture retention, powerful anti-oxidants and its ability to absorb UV radiation.Natural Organic Experience has announced the launch of a new premium cream to help reduce the signs of ageing: ATHANOR Edelweiss Anti-ageing Cream, an organic formulation which originates from the Swiss Alps.ATHANOR Edelweiss Anti-ageing Cream is a night and day skin care cream, as well as an eye contour cream that is suitable for all skin types and for both men and women. The fine textured cream is rapidly absorbed by the skin, leaving no greasy or shiny residue. The Edelweiss and plant extracts enhance the skins firmness and elasticity and have a revitalizing and regenerating effect, resulting in a silky texture and a healthier appearance.The cream works by stimulating the blood circulation, and the powerful anti-oxidants found in Edelweiss plants help skin renewal and cell elasticity by neutralizing damaging free radicals. Clinical dermatological tests have shown an average wrinkle reduction of 22.5% within four weeks, and up to as high as 90%. The cream also protects against damaging environmental influences such as UV radiation and air pollutantsTo use, simply apply to the cleansed skin of the face and neck and around the eyes in the morning and in the evening, using about 2 ml per application.All the plant extracts used in the ATHANOR Edelweiss cosmetic line originate from the Swiss Alps and some are wild harvested, with a large portion of the ingredients grown under European certified organic cultivation, certified by Ecocert. The products are also hypo-allergenic and do not contain any preservatives, synthetic colorants, synthetic fragrances, or substances derived from petroleum or paraffin.They also contain no animal based raw materials, no ammonium lauryl sulphate (ALS) or sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS), no mineral oil or silicone, no Parabens. no synthetic perfumes or dyes, no artificial colour and no GMOs (Genetically Modified Organisms), and have not been tested on animals.The cream is part of a complete anti-ageing range, consisting of five products; Cleansing Lotion, Anti-Aging Cream, Anti-Aging Serum, Decollet1 & Breast Care Lotion and Peeling Mask.ATHANOR Edelweiss Anti-Ageing Cream retails at 55 for a 50ml tub.The Edelweiss Anti-Aging Cream was tested for dermatological tolerance and wrinkle reduction by using optical 3D measurements with high-precision area identification.Results: “20 test subjects in all tolerated the above mentioned preparation CRME EDELWEISS ANTI-AGEING without problems according to dermatological clinical criteria in an four-week test (application in the morning and in the evening). There were no instances at all of undesirable changes, and certainly no pathological ones, to the skin in the test area. The extended optical 3D-measurements of the surface of the skin with determination of the roughness of the skin in accordance with DIN 4768 ff showed after 4 weeks of application an average improvement in the roughness of the skin of 22.27%.”"In summary, it can be concluded from a dermatological point of view that Preparation CRME EDELWEISS ANTI-AGEING was tolerated very well by clinical dermatological criteria and led to a significant improvement in the roughness of the skin as defined by DIN Standard 4768 ff. The average improvement in roughness of the skin after 4 weeks of application was 22.27%.”

Hemp is one of the purest, most complete plants on Earth. Its uses are many and varied; of particular value to humans are the nutritional and healing properties of hemp seed and its oil.Hemp grows almost anywhere and requires no pesticides or fertiliser. The plant is good both for the soil and the atmosphere. It is low maintenance and grows just about anywhere, making it the ideal crop for organic sustainable farming just about anywhere in the world.Hemp seed oil is extracted from raw hemp seed and contains a fully balanced spectrum of essential fatty acids (EFAs). When processed and stored correctly, the beneficial properties of the oil can be readily absorbed by the skin. Hemp seed oil has many benefits. It is a superb moisturiser and natural anti-inflammatory. It protects from UV radiation and pollution, assists healing and soothes acne.Hemp oil is rich in Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs), also known as Omega 3 and 6, and is absorbed straight into the skin. However, nearly everything else is absorbed too, causing concerns about some of the ingredients found in body care products.Yaoh Organic Hemp Seed Oil Moisturiser combines the protective, moisturising and rejuvenating qualities of organic hemp seed oil, almond oil and grapeseed oil with soothing aloe vera and essence of papaya to produce an effective moisturising lotion that is vegan, free from parabens, harmful substances and unnecessary chemical additives.Parabens are preservatives found in nearly all cosmetics including shampoos. They are added to kill bacteria and inhibit mould. They have also been found to mimic oestrogen, and having been found in breast cancer tumours, there are growing concerns for its safety. They are known as skin and eye irritants, and have been linked to damage to sperm production in males.EFAs benefit the body in many ways but two stand out – the effect on the cells and on the brain. EFAs help repair cell damage as they are part of the cell membrane, and they also help keep the cells fluid – important in maintaining the correct function of the skin, whilst also improving the energy flow between cells, as well as the nutrient absorption and detox function. In short, healthy glowing skin! EFAs are readily absorbed into the skin when applied direct.All Yaoh body care products contain no animal ingredients and are not tested on animals.Yaoh recognises the importance of EFAs, and also the unique features of the hemp seed in relation to this. All their body care products are rich in organic hemp seed or organic hemp seed oil. They use the freshest, ripest seed and the best possible manufacturing and processing techniques available. In short, their EFA delivery is second to none.Yaoh Organic Hemp Seed Oil Moisturisers retail at 5.95 for a 56g tub and are available in 3 varieties; original, papaya and coco bean.
