I just spent the month of April in one of my favourite places on Earth, the Indian Himalayan village of Dharamkot, Dharamsala, where I completed my first Yoga Teacher Training course. This was a hugely momentous journey for me on a personal (and professional) level, while it also led me to meet some beautiful souls […]
It’s been a long time since I reviewed a product on Healing Beauty. Everything’s just been ‘me, me, me’ these days, eh?! But I have had one brand at the back on my mind for a while now that I have been meaning to tell you about ever since I tried a few of their delicious […]
I met Mathias Palmsteiner while in Goa, India, introduced through mutual friend and fellow healer, Judit. Mathias is an expert in sound therapy and after years of experimenting with healing sound frequencies, as well as cultivating an in-depth and holistic knowledge of the human body – largely through self-practise of yoga and other bodywork techniques […]
Some amazing things happened to me in Goa. It’s where I met the wonderful healing masseuse Judit, subject of my first ‘Interview with a Healer’ blog post; it’s where I really discovered my passion for yoga while on the Chaya retreat this January; it’s where I began my own healing journey after a period of personal […]
I remember when I first decided I was going to set up a natural beauty blog. It had been on my mind for a while so I’d started tearing out ads for natural products from magazines and bookmarking things online that I thought I might want to review. The first thing I tore out to […]
An embarrassingly long time ago I was contacted by a lovely woman about reviewing her handmade natural products. They sounded lovely and I accepted her offer to try them eagerly. But as you know (I’m full of excuses) I’ve been a bit manic recently what with lots of changes going on and somehow the lovely […]
Following on from my last post I thought I’d tell you what I picked up on my travels in Hong Kong and Thailand. There were a lot of mysterious, intriguing products out there, most of which I couldn’t read the ingredients of and didn’t know exactly what they were. I find shopping for beauty products […]
Last week I returned from a ten day holiday in Asia – first stop to Hong Kong and then for a few days in Thailand. It was amazing, unsurprisingly. Now I won’t tell you what I ate and drank as it wasn’t very Healing Beauty at all. But I will tell you what products I […]
I’ve reviewed quite a few cleansers already on the blog (which you can find here and here). I’m a little obsessed with them. As something you use every day and on your face, it’s important to get right. You want a cleanser that’s going to remove all makeup, dirt and toxins at the end of […]
When I first started blogging about natural beauty I was already using Aveeno products, in particular their body lotions. Aveeno is one of the few ‘natural’ brands that’s available in high street drug stores such as Boots, so it’s pretty accessible, and not too expensive either. A year or so later and I still go back […]
