Posted by 03.10.10

London Beauty Editor Kate Zadah has Gifts for Every Mum

Mother’s Day (or Mothering Sunday, as it is known in the UK) is almost upon us again! This year it seems to have crept-up behind us as quickly and stealthily as Spring! For the less organised among us, we at BITB have done the hard work for you, scouring the stores for the best in gifts so you can easily pick-out the perfect present for your mum in time for Sunday and there’s something for all budgets.

For Mother Earth:

Natural beauty products, free from nasties, gentle on her skin, yet luxurious. Mother Earth will love the indulgent Mummy Pamper Kit from NEOM organics. There’s a body oil, bath oil and mini candle all in their best selling scent, Real Luxury, and there are no synthetics, petrochemicals or parabens – just pure essential oils & the finest organic ingredients. The NEOM candle is perfect for bath time mood lighting and is made of 100% vegetable wax candles, so there’s no unsightly black soot or toxins.

For the Yummy Mummy:

There’s a generous selection of both bath and body treats including sumptuous Vanilla Deelite hand and body lotion, strawberry and cream scented Yummy Yummy Yummy shower gel, fruity Miranda soap, best-selling Porridge soap and the new Dorothy bubble bar. If you know and love Lush for its fab-fizzy ballistics and bath melts, you’ll be pleased to know mum’s set comes with a cherry blossom scented Sakura bath ballistic and the new Happy Blooming bath melt.

WHAT’S NEW IN OUR BAG

A MANE TAMING TREATMENT CALLED JUVEXIN

Call me curious, but also a coward. I’ve wondered about hair-straightening systems, but wasn’t sure the bone-straight result was for me. Also, I’ve witnessed the unpleasant smell that goes with Brazilian straightening systems and read about the emission of formaldehyde.

CELLULAZE IS HERE – DIMPLES AND ORANGE PEEL THIGHS ARE NERVOUS

A new device called Cellulaze (Cynosure) just received FDA clearance for marketing in the U.S. It uses a three-dimensional approach to directly target the subdermal structure that forms the foundation of cellulite.

THE DOCTOR IS IN – ZO SKIN HEALTH

Internationally acclaimed Dr. Zein Obagi, Beverly Hills dermatologist and founder of ZO® Skin Health, prides himself on taking a radical approach to skincare. He believes that skincare should focus on making skin healthy, rather than just treating conditions that compromise our complexions.

GORGEOUS GIVEAWAY – SPA DE SOLEIL INSTANT GLOW AND RENEWAL CREAMS

For this week’s Gorgeous Giveaway, we have a powerful skincare duo from Spa de Soleil. We are giving away 3 sets of the Spa de Soleil Instant Glow and Spa de Soleil Renewal Cream (a $140 total value) to our lucky winners.

GINSENG – WINTER’S PERFECT PICK-ME-UP

Treasured around the world for its energizing and yes, libido boosting effect, ginseng also adds an invigorating component to face, body and hair products. You may be familiar with its energizing power from tea and other drinks like Red Bull.

MEET CLAUDIO PINTO – NEW YORK CITY’S MASTER AESTHETICIAN

Master Medical Aesthetician, Claudio Pinto, is an expert in corrective skincare specializing in the treatment of acne, aging skin, smoker’s skin, sun-damaged skin and slacking skin using the latest corrective skincare technology.

BORGHESE LAUNCHES TUSCAN INSPIRED HAIR CARE

The healing waters of Tuscany, which have made Borghese skincare and makeup a stand out brand for decades, is now available in hair care products. Venerable beauty brand Borghese has just announced the launch of a premium line of hair care.

A L’EAU TO LOVE

Fans of the rose, here’s a new fragrance option for you just in time for Valentine’s Day. L’Eau de Chloé is a new interpretation of the city-chic rose scent made popular by the original Chloé Eau de Parfum that launched in 2008.
