Nosey Parker

If you’ve always wanted to change the shape of your nose, but couldn’t face going under the knife, then a new procedure may be just what you are looking for. Dubbed the non-surgical nose job, the procedure doesn’t make noses smaller but it can smooth out lump and bumps and make the nose look more [...]


Wierd Beauty

I’ve always found the whole idea of beauty pageants unsettling at the best of times and I didn’t think they could get much worse than the competitions held for very small children and babies. How wrong I was. This footage shows the Hungarian Miss Plastic Hungary beauty contest, where all the participants have undergone surgery [...]


Super Serums

Jane Cullen, Beauty Columnist for The Telegraph, recently wrote “A dose of serum a day keeps the Botox doctor away.” We couldn’t agree more! Serums are more potent than moisturisers as they contain a higher concentration of key anti-ageing ingredients. They also have smaller molecules, meaning they are able to penetrate deeper into the epidermis. [...]

Adding Up

How much do you spend on beauty every year? The Daily Mail has reported on a woman who spends on average £4000 on her looks each year. As well as splashing the cash on the usual everyday things (haircuts, makeup, skincare), this beauty junkie also goes on a yearly spa break, has teeth whitening and [...]


Quick Definition – Carmine

Carmine red, also known as Cochineal, Crimson Lake, and Natural Red 4, was used by the ancient Aztecs and is thought to be the oldest true red dye. It’s no less popular today than it was in the court of Moctezuma I, and is used in everything from Cherry Coke to makeup like lip glosses [...]


All Hail McQueen

Alexander McQueen is a favourite designer of mine and his runway shows are always spectacular. The makeup on these shows is always something to talk about too, but usually because it is so unworkable in the real world and crazy that it is just completely out there. In his last show, there was futuristic sculpted [...]


Bunny

There’s a new type of wrinkle in town, who knew that could happen? The ‘bunny line’ is a special type of wrinkle which seems to only be prevalent in those who undertake regular Botox injections. Named after the twitchy noses of rabbits, bunny lines as cute as they sound and have become a dreaded feature [...]


Spin Me Right Round

Starting tomorrow and continuing every Saturday this month, Charlene Davies is holding hula-hoop dance classes. If you’re in London, why not head to Islington and get on board.  All levels are welcome and there’s bound to be a few giggles and the chance to meet some new people. HUla-hooping improves flexibility, strengthens core muscles and [...]


Product of the Week – Lycogel

Lycogel is back at Only Nature and it’s even better than ever. This is the first breathable colour corrective treatment which combines makeup with skincare. The fantastic formula promotes post-procedure healing, soothes sensitive skin, rejuvenates the complexion and camouflages blemishes at the same time.
